Age of Adepts

Chapter 173: Small Village Insect Shadow

Views:

Based on the information gathered by Greem and the others and the communication between Korgan and Lord Sarubo's projection, they quickly confirmed that this is a small material plane with a power level that can only reach level 4 at most!

Lack of magical elements.

The mystical system is not complete.

The magical characteristics of the entire plane are manifested as hindering the casting of spells, which also means that far more effort must be made to successfully cast witchcraft. But even so, there is still a considerable failure rate in casting spells!

Due to the difficulty of casting spells, this also makes it difficult for powerful element masters to maintain their professional advantages in front of those physical professionals. That's why this plane has such a bad situation where the witcher knights completely crush the spellcasters.

A group of "barbarians" wearing heavy armor, holding metal shields, straddling horses and holding swords are also equipped to hunt down great spellcasters all over the world

Although none of the wizards here have any sympathy for the spellcasters of this plane, when they think of their "kind" being hunted down like wild animals by a group of knights playing with savage power, everyone's heart ignites Angry flames!

Thinking of how low the power level of the plane here is, Greem couldn't help but feel worried, and asked Wizard Korgan, "Master Korgan, this plane can only accommodate level 4 power, so Master Sarubo..."

Although Greem didn't finish speaking, everyone present understood.

Master Sarubo is a terrifying sixth-level great wizard. With his strength, can he really squeeze into this plane

Before Korgan could answer, a deep and gentle voice suddenly sounded in the hearts of everyone.

"Of course it's impossible! It's impossible for this plane to accommodate all my power." It sounded like the voice of the great wizard Sarubo: "I didn't intend to project all my power in, only the part that needs to come in is enough. That's fine. What you need to do now is to guard this place and wait for the follow-up wizards to arrive.

They will build a wizard tower here.

Once the wizard tower is built, it is possible for me to project all my power into the area covered by the wizard tower. At that time, as long as the so-called strong men of this plane dare to come, I can keep them forever! "

Greem gritted his teeth, and asked hesitantly: "Then why didn't you let a fourth-level wizard try to break in here first? It must be much easier for him to get in than you!"

"Level 4 wizard? Hahaha... Little guy, you underestimate the suppression of wizards by the laws of the plane. On the one hand, it is necessary to maintain the void vortex from being healed by the self-healing instinct of space, and on the other hand, it needs to be suppressed." The fluctuation of the void vortex cannot be sensed by the outside world, and then it needs to contend with the powerful consciousness of the plane. Do you think a fourth-level wizard can do this?"

Several wizards couldn't help but nodded silently.

They have experienced a lot in the past few days, living in an unfriendly plane world, and the discomfort caused by the suppression of the plane is almost driving them crazy!

If Lord Sarubo's place is replaced by a Tier 4 wizard, will he still be able to maintain his level of combat power under such heavy oppression and entanglements? Once encountering the attack of the top-level powerhouses of this plane, can the fourth-level wizards who are trying their best to continue to maintain their strength advantage in front of the enemy

For a while, everyone in the venue fell silent, repeatedly chewing and savoring the deep meaning revealed in the words of the great wizard's projection.

If they heard correctly, this outpost camp should be considered the safest place on this plane. At least for wizards like them!

Once they encounter an irresistible and powerful enemy outside, they can be lured here and wiped out the enemy with the power of the great wizard's projection. But this should be done after the wizard tower is built. Before the wizard tower is built, the power that the great wizard projection can differentiate is limited after all, and it cannot be used indiscriminately.

Although everyone wants to ask, what level of power can be differentiated by the projection of the Great Wizard? But this is definitely the core secret of this invasion, random inquiries will only arouse the suspicion of the great wizard, so everyone can only remain silent.

The great wizard led them in, and it took a one-month buffer period to guide the second batch, and a lot of information had already been revealed. Therefore, several quick-witted wizards were secretly pondering in their hearts, but on the surface they began to change the subject and talked about some witchcraft issues.

The follow-up task arrangement still continued the previous practice. The four family wizards were responsible for leading the construction and improvement of the camp, while the three Greems were still in charge of the periphery. But this time, the means are no longer limited!

Before leaving, Wizard Korgan made strict demands on Greem and the others.

In the early stage, it is mainly about lurking. Don't startle the enemy, especially don't draw the enemy's attention to the camp. During this period, the three wizards must use all means to plant necessary eyeliners on the indigenous humans, and use the power of the enemy to put all areas that may be close to the camp under surveillance.

If there is a small group of enemies, the three of them can secretly strangle them according to the situation. If the enemy is powerful, try to lure them to another area. At least until the enemy appeared an irresistible Tier 2 powerhouse, it was impossible for the three of them to get any support and help from the camp.

The three of them had expected this, and had nothing to complain about. So after a hasty rest in the camp for one night, they embarked on the journey again!

...

Colka Village, a small village near the Greenland Forest.

There are still many such simple villages in the entire Greenland forest. They belong to the kind of ultra-small villages where you can see all the residences from one end of the village. The total population is less than 60 people.

Because there are many ferocious animals in the mountains, there are mostly hunters in the village. Years of hunting careers have sharpened their ability to deal with wild beasts, especially with bows, arrows and traps.

Most mountain villages go to bed early.

The genius had just turned dark, and there were already rare lights in the small mountain village.

In a small wooden hut near the edge of the mountain village, seven or eight strong men dressed as hunters were talking around the firepit to keep warm. The heat from the wooden cups in their hands covered the sadness on their faces.

"I can't go on like this! I haven't seen a large beast for more than half a month. Today I went to the animal trap in the east to check, but I didn't get anything at all." A hunter with a scar on his face opened the conversation first. .

"Yeah, it's been so weird for a while, it seems like all the beasts are hiding..."

"It's the same with me... I went deep into the mountains and forests for more than 30 miles, and I didn't even find any pheasants or hares..."

"Yeah yeah… "

Everyone was discussing in a hurry, and their words were full of incomprehension and doubt.

"Could it be some terrible monster coming?" A small hunter asked abruptly.

Everyone immediately fell silent.

For the group of hunters who lived in the mountains and forests, there was nothing more terrifying than encountering monsters. Don't look at them dealing with those jungle beasts with ease, but if they encounter monsters, I'm afraid they won't even have a chance to escape!

"Most of those monsters are in the deep mountains, and they all have their own fixed territory, so they can't escape so easily?" A young hunter couldn't help asking.

"Dividing into groups, avoiding disasters, failure of group struggle, or the arrival of more powerful monsters... These may cause those terrible monsters to change their living areas..." An experienced old hunter said coldly.

Everyone fell silent again.

"Why don't we gather tomorrow and explore the depths of the forest together? We can't just wait like this..." a hunter asked tentatively.

His proposal was immediately echoed by everyone, and everyone's discussion immediately became heated again.

However, when everyone was discussing in full swing, there was a knock on the simple wooden door suddenly.

Everyone was stunned!

It couldn't be someone from the village, otherwise he would just push the door and come in, who would stand in the cold wind and knock on the door so politely. Their small mountain village is located halfway up a mountain, with steep mountains and rugged paths, so how could someone come here after dark

You know, in order to prevent wild beasts from breaking into the mountain village in the middle of the night, there are many animal traps and traps placed around the village!

"Who?" The owner of the wooden house stood up and asked in a deep voice.

No one spoke, but the knocking on the wooden door still didn't stop.

Just when everyone's hearts were slightly chilled, there were faint rustling noises above their heads. Immediately there was a click, and something strange fell from the roof and landed on them.

"It's a scorpion..."

Some sharp-eyed hunters cried out in surprise, and then kept flapping and shaking, trying to drive away these black scorpions they had never seen before. But with a slight tingling in their bodies, the hunters froze suddenly, and a feeling of paralysis that they had never experienced spread rapidly in their bodies.

The hunter whose skin was pierced by the scorpion worm's tail needle froze in place, his mouth and tongue trembled slightly, his pupils showed a look of fear and fear, but he lost the ability to move.

Under their horrified gaze, strange scorpions with bulging bellies appeared in the wooden house one after another, crawling along their stiff bodies to their faces. Using their sharp limbs to prop up their mouths, the weird scorpion crawled in without hesitation.

Every hunter looked at their closest companion in horror, and they could clearly see a high raised mass sliding down the esophagus with difficulty. As for themselves, there was a heart-piercing pain in their throats, and their esophagus and trachea were all ruptured by foreign objects. That terrifying scorpion is still persistently digging down!

They wanted to scream loudly for help, but unfortunately their throats were blocked. They really wanted to dig out that terrible scorpion with their hands, but unfortunately their bodies were so paralyzed that they couldn't even move their little fingers.

Such a frightening scene made all the hunters terrified, their eyes turned white, and they passed out in pain. Only Hank, who was the strongest, managed to survive without losing consciousness.

Therefore, he was fortunate enough to see the figure of the mastermind behind the scenes.

At some point, a weird cloaked man had entered the hut and sat down slowly by the firepit.

In the dim light of the fire, Hank saw the two ghostly green ghost lights under the hood and an ugly and terrifying face that made one dare not look directly at it.

Is this a bug or a person

With the last touch of boring thoughts, Hank's consciousness fell into eternal darkness!
