In the old and slightly wrecked castle, the team marched cautiously.
They set up a long and narrow formation. The knight walked in the front, the warrior was about three steps behind the knight, and the mage was about three steps behind the warrior. In order, they were followed by the priest and the paladin.
This formation focused on defense. The knight and the warrior in front could defend well. The paladin behind could react quickly, and the priest behind was wearing armor. Even if they were attacked, they could resist for a period of time and protect the mage in the middle well.
Yue didn’t think that she needed such protection. Although this mage lacked sufficient exercise, her combat experience could completely compensate for the lack of physical force. Even if she encountered a sudden attack of evil spirits, she wouldn’t wait for death helplessly.
However, she didn’t reject the kindness of her companions. On the contrary, she was very happy.
She was in a team where people cared for each other. The team wasn’t powerful, but it was at least warm enough.
These five people moved against the wall, walking very slowly. They stopped and observed the surroundings from time to time. Under the reminder of Yue, the priest cautiously used the ability of sensation, a priest’s talent. He also used the ability of relative energy which was his own talent. He used his abilities to avoid spiritual attacks of evil spirits. Without this observation point, they could only use their eyes and ears more to look for clues from the surrounding environment.
Every time they passed a window, the warrior pulled down the cloth covering on the window. It meant that the owner of the castle needed to spend a small amount of money on repairing them. However, compared to bringing trouble to the owner of the castle who was nowhere to be found, it was more important that they could get light after pulling the cloth down.
Sui Xiong silently looked at their actions, nodding slightly.
In the past, an adventure team had broken into the castle without any preparation. They had searched all the way, and they hadn’t found any clues. However, they had been marked by evil spirits unconsciously. At night, they had lived on the second floor of the castle. The room had been attacked by the evil spirits. They had fought really hard, and they had almost been completely defeated.
Now, compared to that of the previous team, the strength of this adventure team was the same. After all, there were also five people. However, with the preparations and commands of Yue, the combat effectiveness of the entire team had been improved a lot. If nothing else happened, at least this afternoon, the evil spirits wouldn’t dare to attack them.
By the time of tomorrow, Yue could prepare more. At that time, the disadvantages of the evil spirits would be even worse.
However, Sui Xiong frowned immediately. He clearly saw that the evil spirit lurking on the upper floor of the castle actually revealed the intention to attack. Moreover, as it showed its intention to attack, its strength slowly increased.
“Weird! How could this happen?” Sui Xiong said to himself, confused. He was sure that he did nothing, but why did this evil spirit want to launch an attack in the daytime even though it would suffer losses?
For evil spirits, the daytime was not suitable for combat. If it had to fight in the daytime, it would be weaker, so how could it become stronger?
He was puzzled, so he hurriedly examined the detailed settings of the world with his Divine Power Finally, he found out the reason. The overall settings of the world came from the believer’s memory of his past adventure. In the believer’s memory, the evil spirit was a fierce and dangerous enemy. Therefore, when faced with an increasingly unfavorable situation, the evil spirit would make corresponding changes according to the impression of the believer.
The reason why it suddenly became stronger was for the same reason.
This change was actually very unreasonable, and it didn’t conform to the common style of evil spirits in the real world.
After figuring out the reason, Sui Xiong nodded slightly. He sighed in his heart.
What kind of enemies were the most powerful? The enemies that were feared by people were the most powerful because fear would weaken people’s power. It would also create an impression that the enemies were so powerful that they were difficult to defeat.
In a materialistic world like the earth, this situation wasn’t obvious. However, in this idealistic world, consciousness was a part of power. Therefore, people’s fear would naturally become a part of the power of villains, making them stronger.

For example, the fear of the believer gave this evil spirit a powerful force that was beyond the strength of its own.
Sui Xiong frowned, using his power to modify the settings of this world.
The evil spirit that was hiding in the darkness revealed an ugly face. It was staring at Yue, but its strength was suddenly weakened.
“Fair, fair first,” Sui Xiong said with a smile. “I am not the evil master god, the Big Light Ball. It is unreasonable to increase the difficulty when the adventurers behave well.”
Yue and his companions didn’t know about those things happening secretly. They spent some time circling around the hall on the ground floor of the old castle. After ensuring that nothing was wrong, they carefully stepped on the stairs leading to the second floor.
After a short distance, the priest suddenly frowned. He said loudly, “Have you heard the cry of a woman?”
Everyone stopped, listening carefully.
After a while, the paladin replied, “No, but I am slightly uneasy. Maybe the enemy is launching a mental attack.”
“I feel nothing at all,” the soldier said carelessly. “Did you make a mistake?”
The knight didn’t rush to conclusions. He looked at Yue, waiting for her judgment.
Unknowingly, although the strength of this mage might be the weakest among the team, the knight had regarded her as a wise leader. It was that same that some military forces would ask civil officials to lead troops. As long as they were wise enough, their own combat strength was unimportant.
Yue didn’t let him down. She listened for a while, or in other words, made the action of listening for a while, and then she reached a conclusion, nodding.
“Although I don’t know why, but that crazy evil spirit wants to fight us during the daytime,” she said, smiling. “To be honest, I have never seen such a stupid evil spirit.”
“Is the daytime bad for evil spirits?” the warrior asked.
“Of course. During the day, the sun will shed strong positive energy. Any Departed Soul monsters will be affected and weakened,” Yue said with a smile. “If the sunshine can directly fall on it, maybe it will die without our attacks.”
“That is great!” the warrior said happily. “What should we do next?”
Yue was stunned for a while, and she couldn’t keep up with his mind. After thinking for a while, she said, “Don’t pay attention to the cry. Follow our own plan.”
“What? Don’t pay attention to the cry?” the priest said. He was a little surprised. “If we don’t pay attention, we will give it enough time to prepare, won’t we?”
Yue explained, smiling, “As for time, it has been in the castle for so long, so it had enough time to prepare for whatever it wanted to. It is possible that the current cry is used to lure us to dangerous places. It is most possible that there are traps.”
“In this case, shouldn’t we avoid the cry?” the knight asked.
“In theory, it’s right, but I don’t know what the evil spirit is thinking. If it is intelligent and is trying to play tricks, what should we do? Perhaps the direction of the cry is the safest way.”
The warrior was confused. He asked, “What should we do? It means that either way is very dangerous, right?”
“So my advice is to leave it alone,” Yue said, smiling with confidence. “As long as we control our pace and follow our planned actions, we can react correctly!”
