173 Strategically, And Almost Immediately

With the rest of the Templar Code's Elite Team combat mages, Freya remained in the valley to start their investigation.

They first checked the crater where Owen's body was. Then they went over to check Dess's and Quinne's bodies. After an hour, the five of them recovered their bodies and placed them on an enchanted body bag to preserve them. They would bring their bodies back to the headquarters for further examination.

When they were done, all five of them entered a makeshift camp that had been erected before their arrival. They gathered around a small table to discuss their findings.

They did not assign one member to check the condition of the bodies to ensure that the findings would not be one-sided. It was better to have more eyes and brain check the scene not to miss any clues.

Freya, who now acted as the group leader, sat at the head of the table. Her eyes were still red from her earlier cry, but her expression had already turned cold.
