The Guardian Scarecrow was very useful.
The moment Flanders jumped off the rooftop, he activated this skill and switched places with the scarecrow he had placed outside the city.
Not only did this enable him to quickly leave Sarkos, he also wanted to place the Guardian Scarecrow somewhere in Sarkos City.
That way, he would be able to obtain information about Sarkos as soon as possible.
At this moment, Flanders had three views in his mind.
One was the image that Flanders saw.
The other was the image that the Guardian Scarecrow he placed below Tensley University saw.
The other was the image that the crows on the rooftop saw.
Indeed. The crows eating the minced meat were from the Crow Storm that Flanders used.
Feeling the chaos in the city, Flanders narrowed his eyes slightly and revealed an intoxicated expression.
At this moment, Tensley University represented the dilapidated ruins.
The Sword King who had everything taken away from him was the Mad King.
And the citizens of the entire city of Sarkos represented the crying people.
All of this was exactly the same as the fourth act of his favorite Macbeth.
Flanders’s body trembled slightly as he hugged his shoulders.
“This is really the best work of art in the world.”
At this moment, a green light flashed in Apophis’s eyes as he floated behind Flanders as if he was echoing Flanders’s words.
Obviously, compared to that useless Sword King, Apophis was more willing to submit to this madman in front of him.
As if sensing Apophis’s response, Flanders gently turned around and grabbed the hilt of his sword.
“Let’s go, new friends. Let’s go have some fun.”

…
Buzz…
Buzz…
Feeling the radar in her arms vibrate twice, Zero hurriedly took it out to take a look.
A strange creature had appeared 10 kilometers away from Sarkos City.
It appeared out of thin air without any warning.
If it were any other time, Zero might not have taken this matter to heart.
However, this time was different from the past.
The scarecrow had disappeared into thin air from Sarkos City, and now, a strange creature had suddenly appeared outside the city.
It was really hard not to connect the two together.
“Sir Garros, take a look.”
Zero respectfully approached Garros and handed over the strange detection radar in her hands.
Garros raised his eyelids slightly, glanced at the red dot on the radar, and said in a deep voice, “You, go and take a look.
“If it’s a small fish, destroy it on the spot.
“If it’s the scarecrow, contact the other team members immediately.”
Hearing this, Zero was slightly stunned, and then immediately answered.
Just from this sentence, it was apparent that Garros seemed to be a little afraid of this scarecrow.
If Garros ordered the team to carry out the mission before, it was partly because he was too lazy to do it himself.
On the other hand, it was because it was faster with more people.
However, Garros had already bluntly said that after finding the scarecrow, she would have to contact her teammates first.
This was another matter.
It seemed that even Garros thought that the scarecrow was not something that could be easily subdued.
Zero also realized another point.
Garros might want to subdue this scarecrow and make it his own creature.
Zero had been following Garros for so many years, so she could naturally guess what Garros’s thoughts were.
At this moment, Garros’s eyes flashed as if he was calculating something.
Indeed, he did want to subdue the scarecrow and make it his own creature…
A creature who could easily kill all the members of the Sarkos branch. If he could subdue the creature…
It would definitely increase his strength greatly.
Perhaps, it could even help him shake Nikorei’s position in the Mage Association.
When that time came, would Garros not be in charge of the Mage Association?
Thinking of this, the corner of Garros’s mouth finally revealed a smile.
He had been waiting for this opportunity for too long.
Nikorei, that woman, had suppressed him for 20 years.
Garros had been planning everything to surpass Nikorei.
Whether it was to improve his own strength or to cultivate a team that was completely loyal to him, it was all so he could go against Nikorei one day.
However, what made him most angry was that Nikorei did not protect herself from him at all!
It was not that she was unaware of his little tricks and schemes.
It was because Nikorei did not think Garros could surpass her.
No, not just surpass.
Even if he was on the same level as her, Nikorei did not think Garros could do it.
In other words.
In Nikorei’s eyes, Garros, who was above everyone else, was just a small fry.

Thinking of this, Garros’s breathing became a little hurried.
“Nikorei, just you wait.
“The era that belongs to you is coming to an end!”

…
Outside the city, in the woods.
Flanders subconsciously took out the strange detection radar, wanting to see if there was anything strange in the vicinity that he could put away.
It was not a problem if he did not look at it, but when he looked at it, Flanders immediately frowned.
That was because the radar clearly showed that a blue dot was chasing after him from Sarkos City.
“What’s going on? Are you here to find your teammates?”
Flanders was slightly stunned.
He had done experiments more than once.
Although he did not know why, he truly could not be detected by the strange radar.
In other words, if other people used the radar to detect him, they would only see a blue dot—which signified the presence of a companion.
In this case, generally speaking, if someone were to find him, it could only be interpreted as the other party wanting to find a teammate.
However, a strange feeling appeared in Flanders’s heart.
He always felt that things were not so simple.
That was because the other party was rushing over too quickly!
So fast that it was as if they were chasing after him…
Flanders frowned slightly and pressed the button twice, magnifying the strange radar in his hand.
This was… Flanders’s pupils suddenly dilated.
He seemed to sense something wrong!
Without any hesitation, Flanders pressed the button twice again, magnifying the radar image again.
If he had started with a range of 30 kilometers.
After two consecutive magnifications, the radar detected a range of five kilometers.
At the same time, the image on the radar was also enlarged.
Then, Flanders finally saw it.
Beside the blue dot that signified his position, half a red dot was exposed!
At this moment, Flanders finally understood.
The other party was either looking for a companion or for something strange!
Click!
Flanders heard a familiar sound in the air and his heart skipped a beat.
Was he finally found?
