After a few seconds, the mosquito appeared again and it was as if it appeared out of thin air.
Of course, Lin Fan didn’t continue his experiments since he didn’t know what was on the other side, so he started searching the yard itself for clues.
But no matter how he searched, he wasn’t able to find a thing.
That was until he focused his attention through one of the mosquitoes and noticed something.
Fantasy Illusion Array: Gathers the spiritual energy around the array to create illusions that confuse the senses. Can be used to fool those up to the Golden Core Realm.
It was another array!
Why didn’t he think of this?
There had been all kinds of arrays used before, so why couldn’t there be an array used to hide things?
Now the problem was how to see through this array.
This array was strong enough that it cut off the spiritual sense connection between the puppets and Greeny, so if he kept trying to use puppets to scout it out, it wouldn’t have any effect.
After thinking about it, he suddenly thought of something and decided to test it.
So Greeny sent another one of the puppets over, but this one was a special one.
It was one of the ones that had a special seed in it that would act as an antenna for Greeny. Lin Fan was hoping that with this puppet there as a connector, Greeny’s spiritual sense would be able to enter the array and connect to the puppets.
Otherwise, he really didn’t know what to do.
After all, it would be crazy to charge into this manor himself, that would be seeking his own death.
However, without confirming what was inside, he also couldn’t tell if Han Fu Rong had been lying to him or not. He wanted to save the survivors of the Love Sect, but that would be impossible if he didn’t even know if they were here or not.
So he was hoping that this would work.
It was a good thing that he wasn’t disappointed and it indeed worked.
With the special puppet there was an antenna, it created a zone where Greeny’s spiritual sense could connect and he was able to connect his senses to the puppets through Greeny, even though there was still the array in place.
To his surprise, there wasn’t anything inside of this array other than a small building.
Lin Fan had the puppets look around the building until he was able to find an opening for them to sneak through.
Once they were in, they still didn’t find anything interesting.
The building was small, so there wasn’t much inside of it. Other than a single large room that seemed like it was a storage room, there wasn’t much there.
That was until Lin Fan noticed that there was a figure that was sitting there in the corner.
The moment that he noticed this, all of his nerves tensed and he immediately had all the mosquitoes focus on the figure sitting there. However, even after five minutes, there was no movement from this figure at all.
It was almost as if it was a corpse that was sitting there.
But that also made Lin Fan worry since it might be the corpse of the Love Sect survivors…
So after confirming that there was nothing else and that the figure still wasn’t moving, Lin Fan had the mosquitoes move closer until he could see the figure clearly.
It turned out that it wasn’t a human at all, but rather a puppet that was sitting there.
All around it on the floor were different arrays that seemed linked to a single central array that it was sitting in the center of.
If Lin Fan had to guess what this was, he would have guessed that it was most likely the control center for the surveillance array system. All of the smaller arrays that were linked to the larger one were most likely the receivers from the various surveillance arrays that had been set up around the manor.
The one that the puppet was sitting in the middle of should be the controlling array.
The only thing that Lin Fan was confused about was how they would use the puppet to control everything.
As he had suspected, when he used his Appraisal Eyes, it showed that this was indeed the case.
The puppet seemed to also have something on it that created a spiritual sense connection that would allow the owner of the puppet to connect to it remotely. At the same time, there was an array that was similar to a storage disc that was also attached to this puppet that stored everything that the surveillance array detected.
The way it was set up, it really was like a surveillance system from Earth.
But this at least told Lin Fan that there wasn’t anyone physically here watching the people from the Love Sect, or they wouldn’t have left a puppet like this.
So that was an advantage that he would have when he rescued them.
The only problem right now was that he didn’t know where the people from the Love Sect were still…
There were two ways that he could do this.
One, he could keep searching the manor until he found the array that hid the prison. But of course, the flaw with this was that it wasn’t certain that the array that he found would be hiding the prison. There was the possibility that there were other hidden rooms in this manor as well.
Two, he could use the puppet and the array.
So Lin Fan turned to look at Greeny and waited for Greeny to respond.
Greeny hesitated for a long time before saying, “I can do it if you can tell me the array pattern. But if I don’t know that, I won’t be able to do a thing.”
Lin Fan gave a nod in response to this and he turned his focus back to the puppets.
Through their eyes, he started analyzing the puppet and array with his Appraisal Eyes. He kept focusing on different parts of the windows that opened up, in hopes that a part of it would have a pop up that would include a diagram.
Eventually, that was indeed what had happened.
He had only guessed that this was possible based on what had happened before, but he never expected it to actually work.
He started describing the array diagram based on what he saw to Greeny.
Even though they had the Share Senses Skill, this was not something that Lin Fan could share with Greeny. He had tried it before, but he found that the Appraisal Eyes Skill was unique to him and Greeny wasn’t able to see anything.
But he really had to thank the God of Earth for giving him this skill.
If it wasn’t for the Appraisal Eyes Skill, he really wouldn’t know how many times he would have died already. It was only with this skill that he was able to see through all the hidden dangers around him.
Not to mention that it allowed him to do broken things like derive the array diagram from just appraising an array.
Lin Fan also started wondering if it was possible to derive a pill formula from pills or derive a forging technique from looking at different weapons…
If that was the case, then broken wasn’t enough to describe this skill.
With this array diagram, Greeny was able to slowly inject its spiritual sense into the array and puppet controlling it. While Greeny wasn’t strong enough to forcefully take over it, it was still strong enough to hijack it and use the array. It was similar to hacking computers on Earth, but with arrays.
Once Greeny had access to this surveillance array, it was able to access all the surveillance arrays that it was attached to. At the same time, Greeny was able to access the storage unit as well and see everything that had happened before.
It didn’t take long for Greeny to find what Lin Fan wanted it to find.
As expected, there were indeed other things that were in this manor as well, but they weren’t living either. There were other puppets that patrolled this area and once their patrol was over, they would go into a hidden room where they rested.
There were actually many different hidden rooms like Lin Fan had suspected, but it was a good thing that all of these hidden rooms also had surveillance arrays laid out in them. It didn’t take long for Greeny to find the captives that were being held in the prison.
Lin Fan was even able to share his senses with Greeny to see the captives through the surveillance array.
When he saw this, he could tell that they were the survivors from the Love Sect since they had features similar to the ones that Mu Bao Bao had told him about. When Han Fu Rong told them who he had captured around, Mu Bao Bao made sure to give him a clear description of each of them based on what she could remember.
After confirming that it was them, Lin Fan also checked their conditions through the surveillance array.
Seeing that they were all relatively alright, other than having a few bruises which couldn’t be avoided, he let out a sigh of relief.
If they were injured after he had saved them, he really wouldn’t know how to explain it to Mu Bao Bao.
Since he had found them, he didn’t waste any time to send the puppets in to scope out the prison. After all, the surveillance array wasn’t able to tell him everything about it, he could only see some parts of the prison and not everything.
He needed more information if he was to break them out.
The puppets had no problem reaching the prison. The prison building wasn’t even locked, the doors were actually completely unlocked and opened with a single push, though that wasn’t how Lin Fan sent the puppets in.
He sent them in through more secret ways because he wasn’t certain what was inside of that prison. He didn’t want to blow the operation now by being too complacent and sending his puppets through the main door.
But there wasn’t even a single guard that was in this prison.
They just left the prisoners alone in the cage without anything binding them.
Of course, there was still something there that kept them in the prison and stopped them from escaping.
Lin Fan saw it right away through his puppets with his Appraisal Eyes. It was another array that restricted their spiritual energy and weakened them.
For now, Lin Fan turned his attention back to the prisoners in the cage.
However, the moment that the eyes of his puppets fell onto them, he couldn’t help knitting his brows.
