Age of Adepts

Chapter 399: Forest demon

The ubiquitous magic also has its own characteristics.

In different regions, there may be completely different forms of magic power.

Greem didn't know how it would be in other places, but in this area, the magic power was gentle and tame.

But no matter how gentle and tame the magic power is, it is still extremely dangerous for ordinary people.

Greem's elemental vision can clearly see that there are still many dangers lurking in this magical scene with gorgeous and strange appearance.

Scary piebald tarantulas lie among the colorful wild flowers, and outsiders will be attacked by them if they get too close. Spraying acid all over their heads and faces; green bamboo snakes wrapped their tails around tall branches, their bodies hung down, motionless, disguised as harmless vines...

It is difficult for ordinary people to directly observe these dangers with the naked eye, and Greem is also aware of their existence by relying on the abnormal concentration of magic power. And Lowe and others can survive in such a dangerous magical forest, relying on countless experiences and skills accumulated with their lives.

The torches were lit one by one, and an indescribable strange smell wafted from them.

Quite weird, to be honest.

When Lowe opened the way ahead with a torch in one hand and a hatchet in the other, the hidden monsters moved their bodies to make way for them.

All of a sudden, in the grass, bushes, and branches, countless bodies were wriggling and curling up.

Soon, a 'clean' road appeared in front of them.

"Insect repellent powder!" Gargamel bared his yellow teeth and shook a small cloth bag at Greem's waist, and the same weird smell wafted from it.

Greem lowered his head and looked at his waist. There was also a waist pouch there, which was specially given to him by Luo Wei to wear outside his clothes before he set off. Unexpectedly, it had the ability to drive away small ant-like monsters.

With them, the team can save a lot of unnecessary trouble!

The team finally began to move slowly in the Black Forest.

That level 3 thief Rhodes, who was not very strong, looked extremely relaxed here like a fish in water.

After a brief greeting with Lowe, he was the first to disappear into the impenetrable lush forest. And it wasn't until the other party sent back a hidden signal representing safety in the distant forest that Lowe strode forward with a torch in one hand and a hatchet in the other.

Of course, he would cut down the vines and bushes and thorns that got in the way along the way, so as not to affect the actions of the two wizards and apprentices. But even so, in the dense forest with overgrown rhizomes and gnarled roots, every step forward is a painful ordeal.

Either the corners of the clothes were caught by thorns, or the face was hit by a branch, or stumbled by the thick tree roots protruding from the ground... For some spellcasters who lack exercise, the primeval jungle is simply the most tormenting place. Good place.

But wizards and apprentices are not weak!

The body watered by witch medicine also has a physical quality far beyond ordinary people. Summoning some wind elements to wrap around their bodies can instantly make them have a light body that is not weaker than thieves, and the protective force field lingering outside their bodies can even block some sinister and vicious attacks for them.

Anthelmintics are not a panacea.

There are always some weird creatures that can avoid their eyes and ears and sneak up close before launching a surprise attack.

The archer Fira put away his longbow, lightly held the dagger with both hands, and cut the rushing poisonous snakes and blood-sucking leeches in half with the sharp blade. Under her protection, level 4 hunter Neil and several apprentices were unharmed.

As for the two wizards, they don't need her help at all.

Gargamel, who looks like a bad old man, is simply a source of poison soaked in a poison jar. Any foreign creature that gets close to him will be poisoned to death in an instant, and then fester into a pool of acid water.

Greem, who was walking at the end, was even more strange.

There is a faint bright red film of light around his body, and any living thing that breaks into this film of light will be instantly incinerated into ashes, leaving only a handful of gray powder behind him.

Flame Barrier!

After seeing this layer of light film, several wizard apprentices silently called out the name in their hearts, and cast envious eyes.

If they choose the fire-type witchcraft, after undergoing rigorous learning of witchcraft knowledge, it is possible for them to master this kind of fire enchantment with both offense and defense in as short as three to five years, or as long as ten years. But this requires them to have a very high talent in fire affinity, otherwise they should be mentally prepared to grind on the high-temperature enchantment for life!

Sabrina glanced back at Greem's effortless performance, and the sour feeling in her heart could completely overwhelm her.

Once upon a time, when they were performing missions together in the Dark Crypt, this Greem was just an ordinary apprentice who had just reached the intermediate level. What little attention Sabrina has is also mainly focused on the more conspicuous Mary.

Who would have imagined that in less than ten years, the other party has become an awe-inspiring and terrifying wizard. But she still stayed at the quasi-witch level, and even... was caught in a family conspiracy that was enough to shatter her own bones.

The strange things in this world, while embarrassing, are also full of sadness!

Oh my god... what kind of factor caused the fate, identity, and status of two people who were originally disparate in status to be completely reversed. Could it be that his pursuit of witchcraft is not persistent enough, or is fate playing a joke on himself

Sabrina's mind was disturbed by the boiling emotions, and the wounds in her body tightened and ached again.

Sabrina sighed distressedly, took out a black water bag from her waist pocket and took a sip.

What she drank was not water, but a sticky and pungent biologically active concoction!

In her body, many human organs have been replaced by strange mechanical creations, and now she lacks a mechanical heart to fuse them with her original life system, so the conflict between flesh and blood and mechanical witchcraft is inevitable.

Therefore, every day, she had to drink these stinky 'motor oil' that acted as a blender to ease the conflicts that were about to erupt in her body.

And this is also one of the pains that apprentices on the road of mechanical wizards must endure!

Finally, after four hours of hard trekking, the team stopped at the foot of a low cliff 30 miles deep into the Black Forest and began to prepare for tonight's camping.

Although there are still two hours before dark, such a remote area sheltered from the wind is not easy to find. So in order to avoid being unable to find the host temporarily, Luo Wei set up camp in advance after asking Greem for instructions.

After all, today is the first day of the team's departure. Before everyone gets used to it, it is necessary to save some spare energy to deal with the common changes in the Black Forest.

It has to be said that Greem, who entered the Black Forest for the first time, was eye-opened by the rich species and terrifying monsters in the Black Forest!

Whether it is a bouncing little white rabbit or a sharp-mouthed guinea pig, they are all small animals that hunters like most outside the black forest. But here, as if they had been cast with a berserk spell, they frantically got out of a hole in the ground, and launched an attack on the team without hesitation.

Greem had seen with his own eyes that every time the docile and cute little white rabbit pounced, it left a series of clearly visible claw marks on the surface of Lovina's metal round shield. And the sharp teeth of the guinea pig with big ears can also bite Lowe's long sword.

Greem could see clearly that their pupils were blood-red, their spirits were violent and chaotic, and their bodies were boiling with chaotic magical power.

From time to time, there are also some small animals that can release strange attacks such as wind blades, fire balls, and ground spears. It can be seen that if they are given some more time, they may also grow into a magical creature with magical power.

However, most of them are afraid that their magic power will be disordered, and they will die by self-detonation!

It can be seen from them that the strong magic power pervading in the black forest has a comprehensive and in-depth influence on them, and it is pervasive!

The entire Black Forest is like a huge witchcraft laboratory, and creatures that refuse to accept magical transformation have only a dead end. Only those monsters that have withstood the infusion of magic power and survived are eligible to survive here better.

At this point, the "Species" and "Magical Creature Illustrated Book" stored in Greem's chip need to be updated and corrected a lot. In the Black Forest of Nuoda, some strange monsters that wizards have never seen are born almost every moment, and they also return to the Black Forest system after fighting day and night.

Through such a cyclical process, those alienation mutations and unstable factors have been digested and absorbed, and only those stable and powerful mutations can be preserved and become new species in the Black Forest.

And the cause of all this is this huge black forest that people can never see through!

While everyone was busy collecting firewood, setting up tents, looking for water sources, and hunting at the bottom of the cliff, Gargamel dragged Greem to the top of the cliff, took out a witch tool that looked like a compass, and began to measure silently.

"The forest demon you mentioned is really near here? This place is very close to the edge of the Black Forest. If it is really wise, it shouldn't choose such a place as its territory!" Greem asked suspiciously.

forest demon.

What kind of intelligent jungle monster is this!

As soon as Greem's doubts arose, the information stored in the chip flowed into his mind again.

The forest demon, a natural monster with spiritual intelligence, is a kind of magical plant produced by the fusion of soul consciousness and natural tree spirit after the death of ordinary monsters. Its life form is similar to that of the flower demon that Greem saw in the dark crypt, except that one is a natural creation by chance, and the other is a witchcraft creation of an evil wizard.

But the evil nature is generally the same!
