"You're too lazy, they're just a bunch of dead people!"
At about the same time, during the day, a group of five or six first-level wizards were walking in a dense forest. A tall and thin wizard walking at the front kept complaining.
Looking at his companions behind him, the tall and thin wizard said loudly: "Look, the exploration mission of this lonely forest was obviously last month, but it has been delayed until now before being assigned to us.
To be honest, I don't understand why the branch's efficiency is so low. Could it be that they are all fed high-concentration psychedelic drugs? In this case, even if we really complete the task and issue the rewards, we don’t know when it will be, and it may be delayed for half a year.
Hey, it's because our branch is too remote and the management is ineffective, that's why it's like this. It would be absolutely impossible to place it elsewhere. I have heard that in our organization, the most competent steward seems to be called Gibran, and the most efficient steward is called Muse. I am now hoping that I can be transferred to work under these two managers, so that I will not even have the motivation to do things. "
After hearing what the tall and thin wizard said, a red-haired witch suddenly said: "The two stewards you mentioned are already dead, do you understand?"
"They are all dead, how is that possible?" The tall and thin wizard was stunned.
"This is a fact." The red-haired wizard said, "It is said that unknown changes occurred on the east coast. Two stewards and all their subordinates died. The organization has not investigated the truth until now. If you really want to Become a subordinate of two stewards, and now you can apply for a tour of the East Coast.”
"Gah..." The tall and thin wizard's expression froze, and he laughed dryly, "Let's forget it. Actually, think about it, our branch is also pretty good now. In addition to being less efficient and having less room for improvement, we are giving rewards. It doesn’t matter if it takes a little longer.”
"Okay, stop complaining." The red-haired wizard hummed, "The current low efficiency of the branch is entirely due to the fact that the area of responsibility has just been adjusted, there are too many things to handle, and there are insufficient personnel. I heard that the branch The stewards have been applying to Supervisor Rommel to transfer people from several nearby branches.
If Director Rommel agrees, the situation will soon change. By then, it will be much more difficult for some people to want to fish in troubled waters and continue to do nothing but complain. "
The tall and thin wizard's face changed slightly, and he looked at the red-haired wizard: "Nonna, you are not talking about me, are you?"
"Whoever is telling you knows it in his heart." The red-haired wizard said, glanced at it, and quickly moved forward, surpassing the tall and thin wizard, and said loudly, "I am too lazy to waste time arguing now, I just want to finish investigating this dead forest as soon as possible. Rush back to the branch to deal with the rest of the things, ah!"
At the end of her words, the wizard stopped and suddenly let out a exclamation.
The tall and thin wizard originally had a sullen face, but after hearing the witch's exclamation, he quickly turned into gloating, and then said sarcastically: "What, Nona, were you scared by the little bug? Or maybe you suddenly realized that you couldn't do anything. Are you talking about being powerful but your abilities are ordinary?"
The red-haired wizard didn't respond, but turned around very slowly and looked at the tall and thin wizard.
The tall and thin wizard and the others looked at the red-haired wizard, and then their eyes all shrank.
I saw a red line appearing in the middle of the front of the red-haired witch's body, dividing her evenly into two halves.
This red line extends from the lower abdomen to the top of the head. The frightened expression on the face of the red-haired witch becomes artistic because of this red line.
But the feeling of art only lasts for a moment, and the next moment there is a steady stream of blood pouring out of the red thread. Then in the eyes of the group of people, the red-haired witch slowly turned around, and her body suddenly slid to the left and right. Her whole body was cut open, and her internal organs fell to the ground with a "crash".
Facing this terrifying scene, the group of wizards were stunned, and then the second wizard was poisoned.
It was a wizard at the back of the team. He screamed "Ah" and his whole body was cut open from the waist without any warning.
The lower half of the body fell to the ground with a "snap", but the upper half of the body did not die. While enduring great pain, he tried to crawl towards his companions in a panic to seek shelter.
But before he could crawl out a few steps, there were a few "swishes" and a few wind blades passed by, and his upper body was cut into pieces.
The remaining people finally came to their senses at this time, and one person shouted loudly: "The enemy is attacking, defend!"
"Wow!"
Immediately everyone waved their hands and cast spells, preparing to prop up the energy shield.
But the attack was faster than the defense. Just when the shield was halfway deployed, a sharp wind blade flew over, and then passed over the body like a sharp knife cutting through tofu.
"Thump thump!"
The body fell to the ground.
In the end, only one person was lucky enough to cast the energy shield, and it was the tall, thin wizard who complained in the first place.
After deploying the shield, the tall and thin wizard first breathed a sigh of relief, then looked around and saw that all his companions fell to the ground, leaving him alone, and his face turned pale.
"How could this happen? How could this happen?" The tall and thin wizard asked with a trembling voice, "It shouldn't be, isn't it right? This dry forest is very dangerous, and it is almost impossible for extraordinary power to exist. Why now, Why is this happening now?"
The tall and thin wizard kept swallowing his saliva, looking at the corpses of his companions around him, and shouted: "Fick, Sia, Russ... Nona!"
At this time, he desperately hoped that these people could be resurrected and fight alongside him, even the red-haired witch Nona, whom he hated the most, even if he had to admit that he was just an incompetent peripheral member of the Society of Truth.
After all, life is more important than dignity, and he didn't save enough points for resurrection.
But no miracle happened.
However, in the woods not far away, there was a sound of "swiping".
The tall and thin wizard collapsed, and with an "ah" sound, he waved his hand and fired three exploding fireballs towards the place where the sound came from.
"Boom!"
The fireball flew out and exploded violently, erupting with a huge sound and hot waves of fire.
Using the cover of the spell, the tall and thin wizard suddenly turned around, cast a powerful wind spell on his body, and swept out of the forest.
For him, since the dangerous existence in the forest can kill several of his companions silently, he absolutely cannot deal with it with his ability.
All he did was to return to the branch and ask for support.
In other words, he could only escape.
Run, run, run!
The tall and thin wizard ran away with all his strength, slammed his feet on the ground, and swept out at high speed. But at the next moment, he felt a pain in his neck, and a sharp wind blade easily tore through the energy membrane covering his body and cut through.
Then he felt his whole body light up, like a bird flying.
Flying and spinning at the same time.
After flying a few dozen meters, he caught a glimpse of a headless body swaying to the ground out of the corner of his eye.
Is that my body
The tall and thin wizard thought, and then his vision went dark.
"Boom!"
He heard a crash.
Is it my head
These were the tall, thin wizard's last thoughts.
After that, everything was quiet, just like the name of the dead forest.
