Chapter 64 Journey

Chapter 64 The Journey

After the three of them finalized their plan, the alchemy airship continued to fly towards Kosai Island at full speed according to its original route.

After declining Bennett's "academic salon", Lucian went directly back to the cabin where he lived, preparing to continue his studies on alchemy while on the airship.

"Teacher Lucian!" At this moment, Carly came over and told Lucian that several second-level wizard apprentices were discussing the formation of a self-protection team.

"Self-protection?" Lucian couldn't help but feel a little funny after hearing this. But seeing Carly's expression of "making a great contribution" at this time, he smiled but said nothing more.

Carly looked at the perfunctory look of Teacher Lucian at this time, and couldn't help feeling a little depressed. She felt that the development of things seemed to be different from what she had imagined.

"Carly, you have to understand one thing." Lucian looked at Carly with a serious expression, "In fact, their mentors should also know the little thoughts of those second-level wizard apprentices, and these little tricks they do in private are also It's just that Bennett and Lilia don't want to pursue it yet."

"Just like how several of us third-level wizard apprentices were driven to carry out this mission, how could the official wizards of the academy committee not know the dissatisfaction in the hearts of us third-level wizard apprentices." Lucian let out a breath, " But they don't care, after all, as long as we can do something for them, that's enough."

"Then...where are those second-level wizard apprentices?" Carly had a guess in her mind and was trembling a little.

"For their mentor, they are still useful now." Lucian shook his head and said no more.

Carly's face turned a little pale.

"Don't think so much." Lucian glanced at Carly, "You have to know that this mission has a very high risk of death for us third-level wizard apprentices. And for you weak wizards For apprentices, the possibility of survival is extremely low."

"Instead of caring about the fate of others, it is better to make good use of this time to improve your own strength." Lucian whispered, making Carly tremble.

"I understand, Tutor Lucian." Carly's eyes gradually became decisive, and then she took out a notebook from her backpack and began to check some things she had not figured out about witchcraft.

Lucian looked at Carly who was attentive at this time, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.

Then, he took out a pen and paper from the space ring, wrote and drew on the papyrus, and began to design the witchcraft tools he would use later.

Between the hours of learning and teaching, time on the road flies by.

Bang--

The airship landed on the ground. Although it had a shock-absorbing design, the entire cabin still shook violently the moment it made contact with the ground.

"Sigh." Lucian looked at the design drawing that was stained by ink, and he had no choice but to destroy the scrapped draft.

In the past few days, he had drawn no less than ten different concept drawings, but Lucian felt that each design drawing did not fit him particularly well.

After all, compared to other wizards, Lucian does not seem to have any specialization in witchcraft. This will undoubtedly leave a lot of difficulties in the design of Lucian's witchcraft tools. After all, other wizards who specialize in a certain aspect do not need to think too much when designing witchcraft tools. The witchcraft tools they need only need to meet the needs of "taking advantage of strengths" or "compensating for weaknesses". .

For example, for wizards who are good at thunder-attribute witchcraft, the witchcraft tools they need are either gain-type witchcraft tools that can increase the power of their thunder-attribute witchcraft, or they can crack some thunder-type witchcraft such as earth walls and ice shields. Better defense against witchcraft.

But when it comes to Lucian, there are indeed some difficulties. Because it seems that ordinary types of witchcraft tools are not 100% suitable for Lucian.

For example, some of the zero-level witchcraft tools recorded in the alchemy handbook are suitable for unleashing the power of torch fire, and some can improve the effect of shadow stealth. But on an overall level, it could not bring a qualitative improvement to Lucian, nor could it bring out the best effect of the space crystal.

"If that doesn't work, just follow the drawings in the alchemy handbook to refine [Kux's Magic Mirror]. Although this witchcraft tool is not 100% compatible with me, its ability to absorb or even deflect damage is still Very practical." After Lu Xi packed up his things, he walked out of the cabin.

"Is this actually a gathering place for wizards? If you just pass by here, you might think this is an abandoned wasteland." After Lucian stepped off the airship, he glanced at the surrounding environment.

At this time, Bennett and Lilia also walked off the airship with their students and entourage. After the three nodded to each other, they divided into two teams according to the previously discussed plan and went to Kosai Island in batches to meet up.

Lucian and Lilia, who were smaller in number, were naturally assigned to one side. They would go to Kosai Island as adventurers. When they passed a nearby small town, they also spent a few silver coins to hire a guide, and Externally, it was stated that they were a team planning to go to Kosai Island to collect moonlight moss.

"You are a group of adventurers who came relatively early this year." The hired guide was named Martin. He was a young man who seemed to be very talkative. He was walking in front of the team and seemed to be familiar with the details of the track. Very knowledgeable about the situation.

"Normally speaking, adventurers will only start to go to Kosai Island in June and July. After all, you also know that apart from making money easier on Kosai Island, life on the island is not as happy as outside."

"And recently, something seems to have happened on Kosai Island. I heard from some of my friends that several resource collection points there are now temporarily closed..."

Lucian and Lilia looked at each other, and then Lilia spoke softly. "Martin, do you know some specifics? We also heard on the way that something happened on Kosai Island..."

"Of course I am Martin Luther Sadolai, the man who must become the king of adventurers in the future!" Perhaps because it was very honorable to be questioned by a beauty like Lilia, Martin seemed a little excited when he spoke at this time. He even Lilia interrupted her before she could finish.

Lilia looked at Martin, who was dancing a little at this time, with a hint of hidden murderous intent in his eyes.

Lucian frowned slightly.

He didn't know why he felt an inexplicable uneasiness in his heart since he left that human town, as if something bad was about to happen.

"Carly, be careful." Lucian said, but he quietly used exploratory witchcraft.

Because he felt that the strong uneasiness in his heart seemed to be getting stronger and stronger.

Chapter 65 Mist Tide, Attack

Chapter 65 Mist Tide, Attack

"We can reach Mingang through the Gremlin Mountains in front." Mark led the way, but Lilia stopped.

"Martin, why is the fog so thick on this mountain?" Lilia looked at the mountain range in front of her that was almost shrouded in fog. Although she didn't sense any fluctuations related to witchcraft, she also felt that the fog was a bit beyond nature. category.

"Oh, this, this is just a fog tide. The Gremlin Mountains are close to the seaside. This kind of fog tide will form every April and May. Although it is somewhat obstructed, some adventurers who are not familiar with the local road conditions may get lost directly. In the mountains. But for me, Martin, this is not a problem." Martin said confidently.

"If we have to wait for it to disappear, how long will it take?" Of course, Lucian used the system's identification function to identify the fog in front of him, but the results still showed that it was just a strange landscape generated under natural conditions, and some Similar to the sea of ​​clouds phenomenon in some mountain ranges.

However, due to the uneasiness in his heart, Lucian was unwilling to continue moving forward in such an environment where his line of sight was seriously obstructed.

"It's possible... I can't say for sure." Martin hesitated for a moment, and finally lifted his fingers. "If you are lucky, the fog tide may temporarily disappear in a day or two, but if you are unlucky, the fog tide may remain for half a month or even a month."

"Actually, we can go directly through it, and during foggy weather, a particularly delicious mushroom grows in the Gremulin Mountains. Many of my friends will wait for the foggy weather to go to the Gremulin Mountains. Dig. Gee, that kind of mushroom tastes great whether it's cooked or grilled…"

Lucian looked at Lilia beside him.

Lilia hesitated for a moment and seemed to be thinking.

However, Lucian did not notice that at this time Lilia's right hand had quietly touched a rough cloth doll tied around her waist.

After waiting for a minute or two, Lilia stepped forward directly and broke into the mist tide.

Several students and followers of Martin and Lilia followed suit without hesitation. Leaving Lucian and Cali at the back of the team.

"Go in." Lucian looked at the large army in front, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes, and he quickened his pace to follow.

"In the fog tide, the visual distance is closer than I thought, but the perception of mental power does not seem to be greatly hindered." After entering the range of the fog tide, Lucian felt the surrounding environment and felt in his heart We also have a general understanding of the impact of this natural fog.

However, to be cautious, Lucian calmly took out a handful of insect eggs that were used as casting materials from his pocket, and quietly performed the zero-level exploration witchcraft [Repelling Insect Hives].

Of course, Lucian did not cooperate with the semi-deformation effect of this witchcraft to temporarily change his appearance to achieve the best detection effect. Instead, he only used the effect of witchcraft to quietly let the insect eggs he just took out quickly hatch into one. Only mosquitoes were caught, and the mosquitoes were directed to explore the surroundings in more detail.

"Found it!" In front of the team, Martin suddenly accelerated his run and almost disappeared from Lilia's sight.

Lilia quietly stretched out her left hand, about to perform witchcraft.

But at this moment, Martin ran to the root of a vine, squatted down and started digging. It didn't take long before he unearthed a round white fungus, "That's it. Just wash it a little and it'll be fine." It's delicious eaten raw."

Lilia glanced at the mushroom in Martin's hand and narrowed her eyes, but she still retracted her left hand.

The team continued to move forward, and Martin would run a little further from time to time, and then dig out the white spherical fungi.

The deeper you go into the mountains, the thicker the fog caused by the fog tide becomes. Even at the back, the fog seriously blocked the view, and the surroundings seemed to be covered by a thick layer of milk. The visual distance at this time is not even two meters.

"Carly, stay close to me." Lucian was extremely nervous at this time. Because the mosquitoes he released could hardly find any useful information at this time.

There is a vast expanse of white all around. Except for relying on his mental power to sweep away, he is now almost blind.

Carly held the Origin Bow calmly at this time, and her eyes continued to scan the surroundings vigilantly.

"Lilia, stop for a moment!" Lucian felt increasingly uneasy at this time. He grabbed Carly and rushed towards the front of the team.

At this time, Lilia also sensed the abnormality. At this time, she directly reached out and held down the guide Martin who was still going forward, and her eyes became a little dangerous.

"What's wrong?" Martin didn't know that danger was approaching at this time, and he wanted to continue walking forward.

At this moment, several arrows were shot towards Lucian from the thick fog in front.

"Be careful! Lucian waved his hand, and an ice shield suddenly appeared in front of him, blocking an arrow that shot straight into his chest.

When the arrow was inserted into the ice shield, Lucian discovered that the arrow was actually made of vines. It could even be said that it was actually a vine that had been cultivated into the shape of an arrow.

"The handiwork of a goblin." Two large test tubes appeared in Lucian's hands. The test tubes were filled with lavender liquid. This was the venom that Lucian had prepared to face the goblins he might encounter.

While Lucian was preparing for the attack, the other wizard apprentices or servants could not completely withstand the arrow's strength.

"Ah——" Following several screams, some weak wizard apprentices and followers in the team were injured by arrows at this time. Two guys who were not very lucky were shot directly in the vital parts and fell down without saying a word. The ground died.

And Martin, who was walking in front of the team, now had an arrow on his forehead. His body softened, his right hand loosened, and a spherical fungi that had just been unearthed rolled down into the distance.

But while Lucian and Lilia were waiting, there was no movement deep in the thick fog.

"Count the number of people." Lilia's expression was a little livid. In the previous round of raids, the casualties on her side were considerable.

What's even more terrible is that the group of goblins active in the mist can obviously "see" them, but the detection witchcraft on my side does not have the desired effect on the group of goblins.

It wasn't until the other party launched an attack that he felt it belatedly.

"It should be the forest elf." Lucian walked to Lilia's side and handed the vine arrow just now to Lilia. "They exert their greatest fighting power in the forest, and they can also use some trees or special plants to produce unexpected effects."

Chapter 66 Traces, Curse

Lilia glanced at the vine arrows handed over by Lucian, and then she turned her attention back to the large forest shrouded in thick fog.

Click, click, click...

Lilia waved her hand, spreading down clouds of icy cold air. When this cold air encounters the surrounding dense fog, it quickly freezes the water in the dense fog and turns it into tiny hailstones that fall to the ground. At the same time, it also clears out a small area where the fog is relatively thin. "Safe Zone".

"No, there's too much fog." Lilia looked at the thick fog that kept pouring in from all around, and waved her hands again with some reluctance. However, after trying three or two times, Lilia gave up on this wasteful behavior.

And at this moment, several more arrows were shot. However, Lucian's team was already on guard. Several wizard apprentices worked together to release defensive witchcraft, blocking the vine arrows.

Lilia launched a counterattack without hesitation.

She waved her hand, and several tiny ice needles suddenly appeared and flew away at extremely fast speeds in the direction from which the arrows were fired.

Lucian closed his eyes, and his head began to rapidly deform under the influence of witchcraft. As his head changed, his perception of the released insects began to increase exponentially.

However, the vision of those insects was also severely hindered by the thick fog. Therefore, in Lucian's perception, the perspective of those insects was mostly white.

"Huh?" Lucian suddenly discovered an abnormality in the perspective of an insect. At this time, he didn't care about exposing himself. Instead, he activated his mental power and remotely controlled the mosquito in one direction as quickly as possible. move at a speed.

Of course, this insect, which behaved abnormally due to being manipulated by Lucian and exuded a faint witchcraft aura, was soon exposed, and the vision it could provide suddenly disappeared.

"In the southwest, there are only three people on the other side! And judging from the aura, they should be only second-level wizard apprentices. Someone was just injured under your ice needle." Lucian opened his eyes and then looked at Lilia.

"Can you determine their location?" Lilia couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the other party's strength. After all, in this kind of environment that is not conducive to one's own fighting, it would be very nerve-wracking to fight against an opponent of the same level. But if the opponent is only a second-level wizard apprentice, then it will only cause some minor trouble at most.

Lucian shook his head. Although he had just seen the opponent's true form through detection witchcraft, the group of half-forest elves were too flexible in the jungle. Perhaps he could catch up by using all his strength and activating the witchcraft shadow stealth, but he might also get lost in the mist, and the gain would outweigh the loss.

"Are those goblins crazy?!" Lilia cursed in a low voice. She couldn't understand why three goblins risked their lives to stop her and Lucian.

This is not like fighting for treasures or resources at all, but more like the desperate reaction of a beast to survive!

"Go forward." Lucian thought of something, he said hello, and then led the team towards the place where he just discovered the three half-goblins through the insect's perspective.

"Did you find anything?" When Lucian and his party arrived at the place where the group of half-goblins had just ambush, Lilia checked the surrounding traces, including ice needles stuck in the trees nearby and some man-made traces.

Lucian squatted down, then carefully dug out a piece of blood-stained soil from the ground, and then showed it to Lilia for inspection.

Lilia's eyes lit up.

"Leave it to me." She said, but she took out a rough rag doll from her waist.

This rag doll is made very casually. One eye is a button, while the other eye is a small stone. The mouth is drawn directly with charcoal. The overall look is like a child's graffiti. "Kill him for me, Adeline." After Lilia extracted the drops of blood that dripped into the soil through witchcraft, she directly smeared the blood on the rag doll's mouth.

"Adeline...help...friend..." The rag doll's mouth slowly opened and closed, and its eyes made of buttons and stones glowed red at this time.

…

On the other side, two figures were galloping through the mountains.

They look very similar to humans, but they have a pair of animal ears and long animal hooves from their thighs down. It looks somewhat like an enlarged deer leg.

And it is precisely because of the blessing of a pair of animal hooves that they can run on smooth ground in the rugged mountains and forests. Even when running, they will subconsciously form special natural witchcraft to increase their speed by one level. steps.

"Amu, put me down..." One of the male half-elves was carrying a companion on his back.

However, her face was a little pale at this time, and there was an obvious wound on her abdomen.

"Tao, don't say stupid things, I will never give up on you." There were tears in the eyes of the half-goblin named Amu. The companion holding the equipment on the other side also kept comforting the injured Tao.

The peach on his back is not only the childhood sweetheart who grew up with him, but also the wife of his dreams, the best woman in the world!

"Amu..." Tao wanted to say something, but suddenly her body trembled suddenly, and her whole body seemed to be grabbed by something in her throat. Her breathing became extremely difficult, let alone Made a sound.

"Tao... Tao?!" Amu noticed Tao's abnormality. He stopped and wanted to help Tao in her predicament, but found that he could not expel the sudden curse on Tao.

"...Mu...escape, escape..." Tao's cheeks were now slightly purple due to lack of oxygen, but she still opened her eyes wide, opened her mouth, and made the mouth shape with difficulty.

Then, the light in her eyes completely disappeared.

"Ahhh!" The half-goblin named Amu held Tao, who was now lifeless, with a lingering sadness in his eyes.

"Amu, let's go!" The half-goblin on the side held back the grief in his heart, but held Amu's hand.

"Uncle, Ah Tao is dead! Ah Tao is dead!" Amu looked at the other half-elf at this time, his eyes a little red.

"If we fail this time, whether it's you, me, or Xiaoqian, none of us will survive! A Tao is not the first, nor will he be the last, hurry up and leave!"

The companion urged, turning his head to look behind him from time to time. A pair of emerald eyes seemed to be able to penetrate the heavy fog and see Lucian and his party coming towards this direction at this time.

Chapter 67 Spoiler, blood curse

"Ahhh!" Amu hammered the ground twice hard, but at this time he also calmed down, gritted his teeth, and started to run away while holding Tao, who was already a little stiff at this time.

…

"Adeline's friend ran away again...hehehe..." The rag doll in Lilia's hand made a coquettish sound similar to that of a little girl.

However, combined with the performance of the rag doll named Adeline at this time, this somewhat cute and cute child's voice gave people an eerie feeling.

"Cursed witchcraft tools..." Lucian was quietly observing Lilia's actions as he hurried on. In particular, she pays special attention to her witchcraft tool that is suspected to contain a powerful curse.

"The appraisal requires 50 points of reverence. Do you want to appraise it?" When Lucian used the system's appraisal function to scan the rag doll named Adeline, the highest appraisal fee that Lucian had encountered so far in the appraisal module popped up.

Lucian couldn't help but suffocated slightly.

Normally, the reverence points required to identify a zero-level witchcraft tool are between 10 and 30 points. But this rag doll requires a full 50 points of reverence for appraisal, which shows that compared with other zero-level witchcraft tools, it must have something special or powerful that other witchcraft tools do not have!

"Appraisal." And the more this happened, the more Lucian wanted to know the ability of this witchcraft tool. He had a thought in his mind and wanted to conduct an appraisal.

[I feel that the appraisal items are filled with high-level spiritual force fields. Forced appraisal will arouse the other party's vigilance. Do you want to continue? ]

But at this moment, such a prompt popped up on the system panel, making Lucian slightly stunned.

Advanced mental force field? Official wizard?

"Give up." Lucian looked at Lilia who was leading the way at the front, but he couldn't help but become more vigilant.

As far as he knew, there was no formal wizard with close connections behind Lilia. If there had been, Lilia would not have been assigned to this task in the first place.

But now a piece of witchcraft tool that Lilia took out contained a trace of spiritual power attached to an official wizard, and the information point in it was very large.

Surveillance? Supervision? Or is it the interference of other official wizards?

First, he analyzed it in his mind, but on the surface he remained calm. He even looked at Carly aside, taking this opportunity to tell Carly some knowledge about the goblin clan and teach her some fighting skills.

"The forest elves are good at bows and arrows. They have a special ability, the mind's eye, that can target opponents within a certain distance through the perception in their hearts." Lucian looked at Carly.

"This is somewhat similar to your bow and arrow talent, but their mind's eye ability needs to be used at a relatively close distance. At this point, Carly, your talent is stronger than the forest elf's racial talent."

Carly was praised by Lucian, and her face couldn't help but turn a little red.

"But when facing forest elves, the best way is to prepare defensive witchcraft or witchcraft tools. Because apart from bows and arrows, they lack other means of attack..."

While Lucian was talking, when passing by a blood-stained vine, he also cleaned up the blood stains on the vine and put it into the test tube. "Carly, if you encounter blood again later, you can also collect some. It won't do you any harm to collect more weird research specimens."

Although this drop of half-goblin blood has almost no value, and it is impossible to extract the bloodline of the goblin, it is a good specimen material as a carrier for studying half-goblin.

…

"They're chasing us again!"

"Impossible, uncle. We chose to stop them here because your ability, uncle, can see through the fog tide. It's impossible for them to follow!" "Quickly, put A Tao down. Hurry!" The older man said The half-forest spirit seemed to have thought of something and shouted towards Amu.

Amu was stunned for a moment, but soon understood something. Although he was reluctant to let go, he still followed his uncle's urging and put down Qingmei, whose body was now half lumbered.

"Although she can't return to the tree grave to take root, she will still be reborn in the forest..." The old half-forest spirit took care of A Tao, who had become a bit like the texture of tree bark, and then pulled A Mu aside, He ran quickly forward.

"Adeline has found a friend! Hee hee hee..." Not long after they left, a little girl cheered from behind.

"Ah Tao..." The nails of the half-forest elf named Amu were embedded in the flesh of his right hand, and his eyes were even redder.

"Let's go! If we are caught up, it will be difficult for us to run away!"

…

"It is said that after every forest elf dies, its body will become lignified and eventually turn into an ordinary plant. I didn't expect this rumor to be true." Lilia looked at the body of the forest elf that looked like a humanoid plant. , there was a touch of admiration in his eyes.

"This is my collection." Lilia glanced at Lucian standing aside. In her opinion, this half-forest elf was successfully killed by her using witchcraft tools. Naturally, she would take the lion's share in the distribution of the spoils.

"Okay, but I want some blood for research." Lucian nodded slightly, but also put forward his own conditions.

"Here you go." Lilia waved her hand without saying anything, and a large ball of blood suddenly appeared out of thin air. Lucian quickly processed it through simple witchcraft and put it into two large test tubes. .

[It takes 10 points of reverence to identify {Blood of Half-Forest Spirit}. Do you want to identify it? ]

"Appraisal." Lucian paid the reverence value without hesitation, and after a brief pause, the system quickly gave out a detailed appraisal report.

[Item]: Inferior Forest Spirit Blood

[Classification]: Bloodline·Hybrid·Fairy

[Introduction]: The ordinary blood obtained from the half-forest elves contains the blood of the fairies. If it is purified using special methods, the extremely rare blood of the fairies can be harvested. .

[Details]:

1. Bloodline ratio [Human: Forest Elf: Great Elf: Moon Elf: Others] = 32.1: 39.4: 17.9: 5.1: 5.5 (%)

2. There is a serious blood curse in the bloodline...

…

"I see." After checking the identification results, Lucian roughly understood why these half-goblins behaved in such an abnormal manner.

To put it simply, this is a group of half-elves who have suffered a special curse.

Their clan members will inherit this special curse from birth because of their bloodline. This curse grows as they grow and stays with them like a parasite throughout their lives.

Apparently, there may be a special place on Kosai Island that can lift their curse - the Fairy Baptismal Fountain!
