Chapter 41 The Mysteries of the Hollow Tree

Seeing that Allen had easily cleared up the flying hateful mosquitoes.

Francis was more satisfied.

"My brother-in-law-to-be is really good. My sister should be satisfied, right?"

Thinking of this, Francis couldn't help smiling.

He had always admired Allen very much, but now he found that Allen also had the identity of mage, so he was very happy.

After cleaning up these annoying flesh-eating mosquitoes, they could finally have a good rest at night.

After all, he had been tired all day.

Everyone was exhausted.

Allen restrained his demonic power and didn't show off. If it weren't for this situation, he wouldn't have exposed his identity as a mage.

After they set up the camp, it gradually came to the evening.

The orange clouds in the sky covered the ground into a golden color. With a breeze, everything looked so quiet.

They had a simple barbecue and enjoyed the silence.

There might be another fight tomorrow.

Allen leaned against a tree with his arms around his neck.

Looking at the setting sun in the distance, he was not relaxed at all.

After all, they didn't know how many spiritual herbs the other party had.

Now they should have fallen behind.

If they couldn't think of any other way, they might lose the competition, because there was not much time left.

"I hope that we can really find what we need there."

Allen murmured, with a weed in his mouth.

Francis noticed that Allen seemed to have something on his mind and walked towards him.

Then he squatted down beside Allen and asked, "What's wrong? Is there anything bothering you?"

Allen shook his head slightly. "Nothing. I just need to go out for a while."

"Where are you going? Have you found anything?" Francis was stunned and asked.

"I don't know yet. Maybe we will get something."

Allen smiled. He didn't know whether he would get something or not, so he didn't know how to answer him.

Seeing that Allen didn't want to say anything more, Francis was sensible and didn't want to ask more. Anyway, he thought highly of Allen.

He hoped that he could really gain something.

Allen was looking forward to it. After all, they didn't have any rare spiritual herbs yet, which would be hidden trouble.

They sat around the bonfire, speechless.

The flames danced and reflected on everyone's faces, and occasionally the sounds of insects echoed in the forest, melodious and far-reaching.

"Jett and I are staying up late today. Let's go to bed early and have a good rest."

Since everyone was speechless, as the elder Kenan, he naturally acted as a caring man.

"Well, I'll go to bed now."

Francis nodded and walked away.

After Francis left, Allen and Parker also left.

However, except for Kenan, no one noticed that a faint light flashed through Allen's eyes when he left.

"Is there anything else tonight?"

Kenan murmured, without thinking later.

He sat cross-legged on the ground and took out the wine pot from his waist. He raised the wine pot with his right hand and poured a mouthful of wine into his mouth. In an instant, a warm rose from his chest, instantly dispelling the coldness around him.

Would you like some?

Kenan handed the wine jug to Jett.

Jett shook his head and said, No, thanks.

Seeing that, Kennan stopped forcing him.

Kennan took back the bottle and smiled. Then he stood up, put the bottle in place, and stretched himself.

"I'll go over there."

"Okay."

Jett nodded, and he continued to stay where he was. After all, it was warmer to stay with the bonfire.

Besides, most of the beasts that came and went at night were afraid of the fire, so Jett didn't want to leave here.

All he needed to do was to do his night duty well.

"No one knows what will happen tomorrow."

At this moment, Kenan, who was walking alone, suddenly felt a surge of urine. He sighed slightly and unbuttoned his trousers while murmuring.

At this time, a black figure suddenly rushed out of the forest and disappeared in a flash.

"Who is it?"

Kenan, who was peeing, put on his pants in a hurry. In a panic, he held back his urge to pee and wetted his pants.

"Uncle Kenan, it's me."

As soon as Uncle Kenan turned around, Allen suddenly stood in front of him with a smile on his face, which made Uncle Kenan, who had always been calm, take a deep breath unconsciously.

"Are you kidding me?"

Kenan felt relieved when he saw Allen.

"Uncle Kenan, what are you doing? Why are you here?"

Allen asked. He didn't see him outside the camp just now, so he was confused.

"I'm here for a walk." Kenan sighed helplessly.

Oh my God

"Then why are your trousers wet?" Allen pointed at the wet crotch of Kenan with a confused look.

"This is... What I spilled on my drink just now"

Kenan coughed to cover his embarrassment.

'I was scared by you!'

Kenan felt so aggrieved.

It was hard to say how bitter it was. If he spoke it out at this time, he would be laughed at by him for a long time.

Allen chuckled, "Uncle Kenan, you're right here. I found a place during the day, and you and I can investigate it."

"Where?" Kenan frowned.

"It's a big hollow tree. I accidentally found it in the daytime. It's not far away."

Allen said in a low voice.

Since he was stared at by those guys in the daytime, he had to hide this matter from them.

It was not until evening that Allen had the chance to go out and explore.

"Okay, let's go now."

Seeing this, Kenan nodded solemnly.

He began to look forward to it.

Allen led the way, followed by Uncle Kenan. After about ten minutes, Allen walked to a big tree.

Then he gently knocked on the trunk of the tree.

"Crack! Crack! Crack!"

A crisp voice came through.

It was indeed hollow!

Kenan's eyes widened in shock. He couldn't help but think, 'This tree needs two men to hold?'

It was obvious that there was something in the tree.

"I'll break the trunk of this tree a little first."

After confirming that it was this tree, Allen smiled faintly.

The next thing was much easier.

With Allen's magic power, the trunk was easily broken into a hole that could accommodate a person.

Since his friends had known his identity as a mage, Allen didn't want to hide it anymore.

Allen tentatively prepared to go in, but he didn't forget to turn to Kenan and said, "Uncle Kenan, follow me closely."

"Okay." Kenan nodded to show that he knew it.

The two of them entered the tree trunk one after the other.

But it was only this big

"Crack!"

At this moment, the hollow tree trunk under the feet of the two people seemed to be unable to bear the weight of the two people, and it suddenly cracked!

Before the two of them could react, they felt a chill all over their bodies and fell into the cold river.

"There is actually an underground river hidden here!"

Kenan exclaimed in disbelief.

The two of them stood up. Apparently, neither of them had expected this to happen.

Allen was overjoyed. He waved his hand, and a red light flew towards the two people. Their wet clothes were instantly dry, and a warm feeling came.

This was the powerful strength of the mage!

Then Allen snapped his fingers and a piece of deadwood appeared in his hand. The fire rose and lit up everything in front of him in an instant.

"What..."

At this time, the light and shadow flashed, and everything around could be seen clearly.

Kennan frowned and felt her stomach-churning. His throat tightened and he almost spitted it out. He took a deep breath to relieve the disgust.

In front of him, the underground river channel was gloomy and terrifying. The wall was covered with a black mass of mosquitoes, and their wings flapped, making small sounds.

Among the dense mosquitoes, there were eggs all over the place.

Even the underground water was black.

A disgusting smell of rotten acid came to them.
