Journey to the Wizarding World

Chapter 348 Journey

Bitter wind and sand swept across the land, and there was an endless desert. Looking around, there were billowing yellow sand flying all over the sky.

In the desert, a small team is moving forward.

"It's hard to imagine that there is such a desert in the world of Aiqila!" Looking at the endless yellow sand and desert, Enzo couldn't help but sigh.

"The Children of the Forest have the ability to control the growth of plants, and yearn for forests and nature. They have ruled the world for thousands of years. Why don't they use their abilities to turn this desert into a forest?"

Walking on the desert, Misera was also a little puzzled, so she asked.

In front, leaning on a dead tree branch as a crutch, the old woman with a hunched body and slow pace stopped, and said in a hoarse voice: "This desert is almost at the center of the world, and you can reach the purification forest through it. It has always been covered by the forest." The sons of the family regard it as a forbidden place, so they naturally dare not set foot on it easily."

"Forbidden place? Why?" Myrcella frowned.

"The most central area of ​​the desert is the purification forest that seals the beast Ochino!"

The old woman of the fallen spirit tribe raised her head, looked at the endless desert in front of her, and said, "The aura emanating from Ochino, the disaster beast, infects the surrounding environment all the time. Possibly infected by breath."

"Therefore, both the Purified Forest and this desert are listed as forbidden areas by the Children of the Forest, and no one is allowed to set foot there!"

"I see..." Misera murmured.

"It was also for the purpose of sealing the disaster beast that the tree of Aiqila extracted all the power of nature to purify the area around the forest, and this place became a desert." The old woman of the Fallen Spirit Tribe said hoarsely.

Enzo's eyes flickered and he nodded.

"How long will it take us to reach the Purified Forest, Sasla." At this moment, Wizard Feller suddenly spoke.

Half a month has passed since the start of this mission. After the wizard team and Sasla, the Fallen Spirit Tribe, passed through the Great Wall Fortress, they headed towards the center of the world.

They had already entered this desert three days ago.

"If there are no accidents, it will take up to ten days before we can reach the outskirts of the purified forest." Fallen Spirit Sasla's cloudy eyes flickered, and she said hoarsely, "When you get here, you have to be careful. Survive in the desert." The giant sandworm, but it has been in a state of starvation for many years!"

As soon as the words fell, the earth trembled.

The billowing yellow sand kept churning, and in an area in the desert, a giant monster twisted its bloated and fat body and got out of the ground.

Ow! !
The giant monster opened its huge mouth at the top of its head, and from the mouth full of mucus and sharp teeth, there was a strange roar, with a strong stench.

The giant sandworm, a creature that lives in the desert, is not unique to the world of Akira. In the multiverse, similar species can be found in many worlds.

This kind of monster is huge in size, and can reach ten meters when it grows to the extreme state. It usually lives alone, and it mainly uses its huge mouth to devour the enemy as an attack, and occasionally it can eject strongly corrosive gastric juice.

"It seems that the boring journey has finally become a little fun." There was a gloomy light in Wizard Krent's eyes, and a cold smile appeared on his face.

"Chip, scan!" Enzo ordered in his heart.

"Target: Giant Sandworm/Strength: 12/Physique: 10/Spirit: 1.5/Level: First-order lifeform/Information introduction: A monster that lives in a desert environment, uses gastric juice as an attack method, lives alone, and burrows Insects are blood relatives."

Enzo looked at the data of the giant sandworm in front of him, and made a rough calculation in his mind. Although this creature is a first-order life form, its spiritual attribute is only 1.5, which is not enough to pose a threat to several wizards.

As Wizard Krent said, the appearance of a single giant sandworm is just a small episode in the journey for the wizard team.

"You all don't shoot, let me play with it!" Krent licked his lips, raised an arm, and a ball of liquid metal slowly emerged in the palm of his hand.

Ow! !
The giant sandworm roared again, twisted its khaki-colored body, and charged towards the wizard team, spraying a large cloud of acid from its fangs.

呲呲!

Wizard Krent had a thought, and the liquid metal in his palm instantly turned into a giant shield, blocking the acid attack and making a squeak.

Immediately afterwards, Krent waved again.

The liquid metal at the level of a magical witch tool immediately turned into a long spear, and stabbed fiercely downward, piercing through the body of the giant sandworm in an instant.

A large amount of stinky blood splattered on the desert, and the strong smell spread with the wind. The giant sandworm wailed in pain, and its fat body kept rolling.

puff! !

The huge mouth opened, and another jet of acid sprayed out. With a thought in Krent's mind, the liquid metal turned into a falcon and flew into the mouth of the giant sandworm.

The next moment, the giant sandworm exploded!

Countless metal spikes shot out from its body, and the stinky blood rained down on the ground. Myrcella frowned, and waved her hand to summon a curtain of fire, enveloping the wizard team.

In front, the broken corpse of a giant sandworm was limply buried in the yellow sand.

A satisfied smile appeared on Krent's face, and then he raised his hand to take back the liquid metal, turning it into an armguard and wrapping it around his wrist.

After possessing the magical wizard tool, Krent, who was originally the conqueror wizard, became even more powerful. Killing the giant sandworm, which is also a first-order life form, can be described as a breeze.

On the spot, looking at the giant sandworm killed by Krent, Sasla, the Fallen Spirit Tribe, had her eyes flickering, and she cut her fingers calmly, letting a drop of blood with a strange aura fall into the yellow sand.

"Go ahead." At this time, Wizard Reiner, who had been keeping a low profile, said lightly.

The Wizard Squad started to move on, and after the giant sandworm vignette ended, nothing happened for the next few hours.

As the last ray of light in the sky faded, darkness gradually enveloped the earth, and the temperature of the originally hot desert land seemed to drop suddenly.

However, this temperature has no effect on the wizard at all. The wizard team settled next to a huge rock and prepared to set up a tent to rest.

Under the night, the desert was silent.

In the simple tent camp, Enzo sat alone and watched the night. He leaned against the edge of the rock, his eyes were slightly closed, but he was always paying attention to the movement around him.

At this time, the area not far away.

In the dark corner, a pair of cloudy eyes were watching the wizard team's camp. Those crooked figures exuded a strange aura, and seemed to be a group of fallen spirits like Sasla.

"They didn't see us, did they?"

The rickety body is prostrate on the ground, like a dying old woman, the voice is hoarse and weak, like a candle in the wind that may go out at any time.

"The taste of flesh and blood is really intoxicating..."

Beside him, another Fallen Spirit had greedy eyes, black saliva dripping from the corner of his mouth, he was so excited that his body couldn't help shaking, "I can't help it, why don't I just eat them now..."

At this time, a powerful palm pressed down on the fallen spirit's head in vain, like pinching a watermelon, crushing her head, black liquid splashed around, and a strange and disgusting aura emanated.

"Can't bear it? Then go to hell!"

The owner of that palm was a Fallen Spirit who didn't look so old. His skin was also wrinkled, but his aura was much stronger than other Fallen Spirits.

Seeing that his companion was killed by a headshot, the fallen spirits around fell silent and lowered their heads one after another.

"The fallen spirits have waited for thousands of years for an opportunity, and I will never allow anyone to destroy it!"

The fallen spirit clan with a strong aura, who seemed to be the leader, glanced at everyone, and said coldly, "I warn you, before the disaster beast Ochino is released, no one is allowed to attack those wizards, otherwise the end will be death." One!"

"We've been waiting for this opportunity for too long! Only by releasing the Calamity Beast Ochino can the fallen spirits regain their strength, kill all the children of the forest, and become the rulers of this world!"

"As long as the plan is successful, the Fallen Spirit Clan will rise again!" The leader of the Fallen Spirit Clan spoke enthusiastically, with luster shining in his muddy eyes.

……

"Fallen Spirit Race, rising again?"

In the camp, Enzo still closed his eyes and dozed off, but he understood all the conversations of the fallen spirits in the distance.

Under the night, an illusory crow hovered in the sky silently. Through the vision of the illusory crow, Enzo was always watching the fallen spirits below.

"Things are really not that simple..."

Thoughts flickered in Enzo's mind, and he thought, "It seems that the Fallen Spirits want to release the Calamity Beast not only to deal with the Children of the Forest and the Tree of Ekira, but also to restore their own strength!"

"As Mitchell said, the essence of the fallen spirits is also the children of the forest. They became what they are now under the influence of the beast's breath."

"Then, in other words, the Calamity Beast Ochino represents the source of power for the Fallen Spirit Race. Only by releasing the Calamity Beast will the Fallen Spirit Race regain their strength!"

"Since this is the case, the fallen spirits have made plans to use them before cooperating with the wizard civilization. They will not surrender to the wizard civilization at all, but use the power of the wizard civilization to release the disaster beast."

"But in this case, everything makes sense!"

"It is impossible for any intelligent race to submit to other civilizations easily, not to mention that the Fallen Spirits are native creatures of this world, and naturally they are unwilling to give up the ruling power of the world to wizards!"

"However, the three deans can't understand such a simple truth?"

Enzo slowly opened his eyes, eyes flickering, looking at Wizard Reiner's tent not far away, the corners of his lips raised slightly, and whispered, "Master Reiner, maybe... I know who you are..."

……

The next day, early in the morning.

The light of dawn sprinkled on the earth, and there was a hint of humidity in the air. In the camp, several wizards walked out of the tent one after another.

"How is it? Didn't anything happen outside last night?" Wizard Reiner walked over and asked with a chuckle.

"Everything is calm." Enzo smiled.

Now that he has already made a basic inference about the identity of Wizard Reiner, he does not believe that the other party was unaware of what happened last night.

"That's good." Wizard Reiner smiled lightly.

After a brief conversation between the two, the others were also ready to go, and the wizard team, led by Sasla, continued to move towards the direction of purifying the forest.

In the desert swept by wind and sand, the wizard team moved forward.

Ten days passed quickly, and during the journey in the desert, except for the occasional attack by giant sandworms, there were no accidents.

On this day, the wizard team came to the end of the desert.

"It's finally here." On a high slope, Fallen Spirit Tribe Sasla looked at the forest in the distance, with unconcealable excitement in her eyes, and even her body couldn't help shaking.

"Is that the purification forest over there?" Myrcella took a step forward.

"That's right, there is the Purification Forest!" Sasla nodded, and said frantically, "The heart area of ​​the entire world, the birthplace of the Tree of Akira, is also the place where the Calamity Beast is sealed!"

"Next, as long as you escort me to the purification forest, I will have a chance to release the plague beast Ochino!"

"What should I do?" Feller frowned.

"The plan is very simple." Sasla grinned and said, "The guardians of the purified forest are giant trees. will wake up immediately."

"And the area where the disaster beast Ochino is sealed is located in the emerald lake in the center of the purification forest!"

"If we want to complete this task, we must pass through the blockade of the Giant Tree Clan, which requires the help of wizards."

Feller stroked his chin and pondered, "You mean, let us help you deal with giant trees. How many are there? What is the life level of each giant tree?"

"The entire purification forest is made up of giant trees. The number cannot be counted, but at least there are more than a thousand." Sasla thought for a while, and then said, "As for their combat effectiveness, according to your calculation method, they should be slightly weaker." Son of the Forest."

"Slightly weaker than the Son of the Forest, it is at least a second-order life form!"

Feller narrowed his eyes, took a breath, and said in surprise, "At least a thousand giant trees, so that means we will face a thousand second-order life forms!?"

"Please don't worry, Master Wizard." Seeing several wizards frowning, Sasla hurriedly said, "The plan doesn't depend on us alone, and other fallen spirits will also help!"

"Other Fallen Spirits?" Enzo's eyes flashed.

"Yes, Master Wizard." Sasla nodded, and said hoarsely, "My people have been waiting outside the purification forest for a long time. As long as they get my signal, they will step into the purification forest first to attract giant trees Clan's attention."

"We just have to take advantage of the opportunity and get as close to Emerald Lake as possible."

"As the place where the disaster beasts are sealed, ordinary giant trees don't dare to approach it, so those who guard there are the elite of the giant tree family. When the time comes, I will ask the wizard to help me remove the obstacles!"

Misera frowned, and asked in a deep voice, "Since your people can attract the attention of the Giant Tree, why are you still cooperating with us?"
