Grassland 

With their backpacks almost empty, it took Raymond and Felix half a day to cross this desert area.

And behind this desert was an endless grassland.

The common wild grass in the underground world spread on this black soil, growing exceptionally vigorously.

The wild grass that could only grow to twenty centimeters near the Crimson Wetland actually reached thirty centimeters in height on this black soil, and the leaves also became much thicker.

Unlike Felix's excitement, Raymond, with the help of the chip, found that the radiation intensity in the environment here exceeded his imagination.

Especially this ordinary wild grass could appear so lush after the increase in radiation intensity. Therefore, with the help of the chip, Raymond also came to a startling judgment: the organisms appearing here must also be more massive.

Similar to the wasteland, Raymond, who collected these abnormal data, could hardly see any creatures on the verge of the grassland. Not until the second day after they entered the grassland did they suddenly encounter the creatures here.

The grassland weasel, which should have been less than half a foot long, suddenly jumped out when Felix passed under its chassis.

But this grassland weasel that suddenly appeared from the grass was nearly one meter long!

Although its sudden sneak attack failed to break through Felix's protective force field with its sharp front claws, it still knocked Felix to the ground with its momentum. Then the grassland weasel started scratching Felix with its front claws.

The unprovoked attack also caused Felix to lose his calmness for the first time. Accompanied by his frightened shouts, flames soon appeared on the surface of his body.

But the magical fire that suddenly rose on Felix's body did not harm the grassland weasel. It nimbly jumped away the moment the flames rose, then let out an angry hiss and circled Felix at high speed, looking for opportunities to pounce and scratch without rest!

The annoyed Felix quickly got up, but the flame magic condensed in his hands could not be aroused at all.

Because with its speed, the grassland weasel kept making Felix suffer.

Circling around Felix's body, the cunning grassland weasel ran behind him as much as possible, then pounced and tore at him with its claws. Although the steady Felix was not knocked over again, his cries of pain were incessant.

Felix, whose agility exceeded that of adults, could not improve the predicament even after drawing his dagger when facing the grassland weasel whose whereabouts could not be captured by the naked eye.

On the contrary, Felix's protective force field became disordered under the continuous impact of the grassland weasel.

About ten meters away, Raymond stopped and did not approach after discovering the abnormality of the grassland weasel. He quickly condensed ice spikes to rescue.

But seeing that Felix's dagger could not even chase the grassland weasel, Raymond found through the chip's warning that his magic could not lock the grassland weasel's position at all.

In just over ten seconds after being close to the grassland weasel, Felix suffered dozens of fierce attacks. But the grassland weasel's sharp front claws could not break through his protective force field to hurt his body. It only caused severe contusions with continuous impacts.

Waving his dagger in confusion, Felix couldn't even touch the edge of the grassland weasel. Around his body, the afterimage of the grassland weasel flashed intermittently. Felix could only let out frightened cries of pain. With no alternative, Raymond could only cast Death Coil.

The subtle magic fluctuation caused a momentary sluggishness in the grassland weasel. But with the formation of Raymond's magic, the withered vines that suddenly appeared from the grass rushed madly toward the grassland weasel.

Like a layer of withered yellow carpet growing out of the grass, the withered vine branches that suddenly appeared covered the area where Felix was standing in an instant. Although the grassland weasel trying to escape also jumped up in time to escape outward, it was still dragged down from mid-air by a withered vine entwining its hind legs.

The grassland weasel made squeaks of pain. It was soon tied up tightly by the withered vine branches rushing over from all around and fell motionless on the grassland.

Felix, who had been bullied by the grassland weasel, rushed over immediately after seeing Raymond's magic take effect, wanting to stab it with his dagger. But the extremely tight withered vines did not even have a crack.

Seeing this, the more annoyed Felix condensed a flame in his hand and smashed it on the grassland weasel bound by the withered vines. The raging magical flames burned the withered vines and grassland weasels into ashes in a few seconds.

Seeing the grassland weasel and withered vines turn into ashes, Raymond smiled.

Although the thrilling scene just now was a bit frightening, it also gave Raymond a vague understanding of the creatures on this grassland.

The protective force field of a level three apprentice still seemed extremely powerful here. It did not seem that these mutated creatures could break through. The Wizard Academy's division of strength in these areas was also very accurate.

But Raymond's biggest harvest was that Felix burned the withered vines together when venting his anger, allowing Raymond's chip to finally collect data on fire magic.

According to the chip's calculation, the attack power of Felix's flame magic when burning the withered vine branches reached 75 units. After deducting the natural suppression of fire on wood attributes, the initial defensive strength of Raymond's protective force field should be 40 units.

But if Raymond himself suffered an attack from a fire magic spell of the same level wizard apprentice, the effect of this protective force field would decrease by more than 20%.

For the results of such simulations by the chip, Raymond could not determine their basis for the time being. But such intuitive data results gave him a more intuitive understanding of the protective force field of his body.

Especially after Raymond witnessed Felix's healing process, the toughness of this protective force field excited Raymond endlessly.

After suffering hundreds of scratches and impacts from the grassland weasel, only some bruises appeared on Felix's body, without even the slightest skin damage. Still, such pure trauma caused by blunt impact made Felix suffer for two full days before relief.

According to Felix himself, the impact force of this grassland weasel was already close to the damage that a human knight could cause him.

After experiencing this accidental grassland weasel sneak attack, not only did Raymond become more vigilant, even the usually arrogant Felix became extremely cautious.
