Journey to the Wizarding World

Chapter 496 The Ambition of the God of Calamity

Closno's name was pushed away, leaving only Gustav and Catherine floating in the air.

"Catherine, Gustav..."

Flossley muttered to herself, frowning slightly, neither Catherine nor Gustav could gain his trust.

Even if Gustav was part of the Phantom of Crows.

Unlike Christina and Mitchell, Gustav and Flossley are not characters of the same period. The other party is just a genius, who was promoted to the third-level wizard in a very short time by virtue of his talent.

Even, before the start of this expedition, Gustav was only a second-level wizard, and he had just been promoted to the second level not long ago.

And another target, Catherine.

Frosley couldn't believe it even more. Purebred vampires came from the shadow world. After the shadow world was conquered by the wizard civilization, the vampire family fell into the embrace of the abyss, and even completely merged with the abyss, just like an alternative demon race.

Therefore, wizards with vampire blood are also suspected of moving closer to the abyss. Even if Crowley of [Fanging Blood Shadow] has just fallen, Catherine's suspicion will not be eliminated.

"Who do you think... it could be?"

Flossley muttered to himself, as if asking someone, ": Mitchell."

Beside him, a figure in a white robe slowly revealed his figure, with a lazy smile on his face, it was the "deceased" third-order wizard Mitchell.

……

At the same time, the world of war ghosts.

Tatata!
Under the dark sky, the ground was filled with a mist that could hardly be dispelled, and the vision within ten meters ahead was blocked.

With the sound of horseshoes, a figure in a red robe tore through the fog and slowly moved towards the forest ahead.

Suddenly, Enzo stopped.

A forest scene has appeared in front of it. Countless black trees are intertwined together. The dry and withered branches are like devils, and a thicker black mist is emitted from it.

The dark sea of ​​trees, the extreme west of the war ghost world, is also the birthplace of the god of calamity, a place beyond the reach of the blood-slaughter god.

"It's here!"

Enzo took a deep breath, turned over and jumped off the back of the magic horse, a trace of solemnity and caution appeared on his face.

quack quack!
On the spot, the magic horse turned into a crow and landed on Enzo's shoulder. His dark eyes looked into the distance, and then he shrank his head.

Even Swain could feel the terrifying aura emanating from the dark sea of ​​trees.

At the same place, Enzo thought about it.

Illusory crows flew out from around him, and flew towards the dark interior of the sea of ​​trees. Before entering an unfamiliar environment, it was already Enzo's habit to use shadow crows to investigate first.

However, the shadow crows, which were invincible every time, lost their effect this time. When a few shadow crows flew into the dark sea of ​​trees, before Enzo could change his vision, an invisible force invaded.

In an instant, the shadow crows annihilated one after another, turned into the purest magic power, and merged with the black mist in the air.

"Failed?" Enzo frowned slightly.

This was the first time that the shadow crow failed. After thinking for a while, Enzo summoned ten shadow crows again and threw them into the dark sea of ​​trees.

However, the ending is the same as before.

The moment the ten shadow crows entered the dark sea of ​​trees, they were swallowed up by an invisible force, turning into the purest magic power and fused with the black mist, like mud cows entering the sea.

"Is this... the domain of the God of Calamity?"

A dignified expression appeared on Enzo's face. The dark sea of ​​trees seemed to have unique rules, and the shadow crow would disappear immediately if it entered it.

"Since the God of Calamity is an indigenous god born in the dark sea of ​​trees, there must be a special connection between him and this area, and it is only natural to make this area a unique area in some way!" Enzo stroked Chin, thought.

Afterwards, Enzo fell into deep thought.

The dark sea of ​​trees in front of him is like a huge black hole that can swallow everything. Since the shadow crow cannot explore it, it means that Enzo cannot link the specific situation inside.

Therefore, for Enzo to rush into it, it means unknown risks.

"Do you want to go in?"

Enzo frowned slightly, feeling a little tangled in his heart, but it disappeared quickly. After taking a deep breath, he stepped straight into the dark sea of ​​trees.

Now that he has come here, no matter what is ahead, Enzo must go in, otherwise his plan with the blood god will fail.

Swish!
Enzo walked into the dark sea of ​​trees, surrounded by darkness and mist, and below were dry branches and leaves. His footsteps stepped on them, making a slight sound.

Suddenly, Enzo stopped.

Although the surroundings were dark, and the fog almost blocked the vision ten meters ahead, Enzo was a third-tier wizard after all, and with his mental strength breaking through [-] points, he had an extremely keen perception of the surroundings.

brush!
In the sky above, on a black tree that was ten meters long, an evil beast that looked like an ape, but its whole body was rotten, jumped down directly from above, and slashed towards Enzo with its sharp claws.

In the same place, Enzo's face remained unchanged.

The shadow under his feet turned into a sickle, and with a sharp swing, he cut the ape beast into two pieces, and the black blood splattered on the ground, making a squeaking sound.

Squeak!
After being cut into two pieces, the ape monster still didn't die completely, but let out a sharp cry, and stared at Enzo with scarlet eyes.

"Low-level evil beast?"

Enzo looked at the evil beast ape that was struggling on the ground but not dead, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

The ape demon beast transformed by the black mist did not gain too strong attack ability, but its vitality was extremely tenacious. It was clearly not even a first-order lifeform, but it possessed a powerful vitality that even a second-order lifeform could not compare to.

"What's the point?"

Enzo raised his eyebrows. The evil beasts polluted by the black mist are equivalent to accepting the transformation of the God of Calamity, and for the God of Calamity, endowing evil beasts with different attributes means that they show different abilities. effect.

Low-level evil beasts are equivalent to cannon fodder. If they don't have strong means of attack, no matter how tenacious their vitality is, it's of no use.

Enzo's eyes were thinking, and at this moment.

Along with the ground, the evil beast ape that had been cut in two kept screaming, and on the trees around the dark sea of ​​trees, pairs of scarlet eyes suddenly appeared.

Thousands of evil beast apes, as if summoned by their companions, kept appearing on the tree, with scarlet eyes staring at Enzo below.

"Is it the same kind of evil beast?"

Enzo's eyes flashed, some conjectures appeared in his mind, and he muttered to himself, "To create a race by transforming all creatures into evil beasts, this kind of behavior seems to be somewhat similar to the evil ghosts I created. !"

Originally, Enzo thought that the God of Calamity created evil beasts through the black mist in order to consume the power of the God of Blood Slaughter, but now it seems that it is more than that.

The God of Calamity obviously has greater ambitions.

He transformed a large number of apes into evil beasts, thereby creating a new life form. If this life form has the ability to reproduce, then it can be called a race.

Although the intelligence of the beast is low, it is difficult to be the ruler of the world, but if the plan of the God of Calamity is successful, does it mean that he can create a race of intelligent life like the War Ghosts.

If the God of Calamity really supports a race of intelligence comparable to the War Ghosts, does that mean that this race can eventually replace the War Ghosts and become the ruler of the world?

Just like... Enzo's ongoing experiment.

Whether it is the God of Blood Slaughter or the God of Calamity, after killing each other, if they want to continue to rule the world, they must rely on an intelligent race. He only controls a group of evil beasts and evil spirits.

Strictly speaking, the evil spirits and evil beasts polluted by the black mist are just puppet creatures. Although they have a certain degree of consciousness, their thinking is completely controlled by the god of disaster, so they cannot be regarded as a race.

Therefore, the God of Calamity is eager to have an intelligent race like the God of Blood Slaughter, as the cornerstone of his future world domination.

Squeak! !

On the border of the dark sea of ​​trees, among the branches of a large number of black trees around, apes and monsters screamed one after another, and then rushed towards Enzo at the same time.

"Shadow Realm!"

Enzo's complexion remained unchanged, and he directly opened the shadow field. A scythe that looked like the hand of death quickly condensed into shape, and then swung it violently.

brush!
A huge shadow sickle transformed from the air, instantly cutting a large number of apes and evil beasts into two pieces, and the black and viscous blood splattered on the ground, making a squeak-like sound.

The black blood fell on the ground and soon turned into a black mist, while the evil beast apes who were injured by the shadow scythe all took a sharp breath.

At the tip of the noses of those evil beast apes, black mist turned into an air flow and poured into it, and joyful expressions appeared on the hideous and ugly faces of the evil beast apes, as if they were inhaling poisonous mist.

Immediately afterwards, after absorbing enough black mist, the wounds on the evil beast ape's body began to heal one after another. In this dark sea of ​​trees, it was like a perfect closed loop.

The evil beast ape was wounded, and the blood splattered on the ground turned into black mist, but after they absorbed the black mist, they could quickly recover from their injuries.

Brush brush!
The shadow sickle swung quickly, cutting off the evil beasts and monkeys one by one, but the surrounding black mist was extremely dense, which could fully supply the recovery energy of the evil apes and monkeys.

After realizing this situation, Enzo couldn't help frowning.

"It doesn't make any sense to go on like this."

Afterwards, Enzo shook his head, and instead of manipulating the shadow scythe to attack, he summoned a shadow cage in an area around him.

The shadows quickly condensed and formed a huge cage. Enzo was in it, facing the crazy attacks of the apes and evil beasts.

Squeak!
Outside, the evil beasts and apes were screaming wildly, but their weak attack ability could not tear the shadow cage at all, and they could only fall into impotent rage.

Enzo stroked his chin with a thoughtful expression on his face.

In fact, for Enzo, there are many ways to get rid of the siege of evil beasts and apes. The easiest way is to use shadow camouflage and directly blend into the shadows to escape.

However, at this time it was only the periphery of the dark sea of ​​trees.

What kind of threat lies ahead is still unknown to Enzo at this moment, rushing forward will only put him in greater danger.

"We must first figure out what is going on with the rules in this area." Enzo pondered.

If the evil beast ape can recover itself unlimitedly through the black mist, wouldn't that be equivalent to a true immortal body?
"will not."

Enzo shook his head. Evil beast apes can recover themselves through the black mist, but the speed of recovery is extremely limited. The few evil beast apes that were completely cut off by the shadow sickle are still struggling on the ground, and their flesh and blood wounds are severely wounded. Visible speed peristaltic healing.

"Try it."

Enzo thought for a while, and then with a thought, he grabbed a half-devil beast ape and tore it open from the head.

squeak! ! !
An extremely sharp sound sounded, and after the head of the evil beast ape was torn apart, the scarlet eyes almost protruded, and the originally ferocious face became even uglier.

Immediately afterwards, the evil beast ape remained motionless.

"Sure enough, it still has weaknesses."

Enzo shook his head, and threw the broken body of the evil beast ape aside. This ape evil beast had already turned into a broken piece of flesh, wriggling as if it still had some vitality left.

slap!

Enzo stepped on it, crushing a mass of flesh and blood on the ground into fine pieces. Afterwards, Enzo waved his hand directly, and the surrounding shadow cages automatically dissipated.

Around, the evil beasts and apes rushed forward frantically again.

And Enzo already knew their weakness. In the shadow field under his feet, shadow sickles rose up like vines, and the group of demons danced like a wild dance.

Brush brush!
With the crazily waving of the shadow sickle, the heads of the evil beast apes were smashed, and a large amount of black blood swayed down like a rain of blood.

Enzo stayed where he was.

The shadow above the head turned into a defensive cover, no matter the blood rain swaying in the sky, it was blocked outside, as if forming an independent field.

In an instant, hundreds of thousands of evil beast apes were beheaded. The black blood made the ground even darker, and pieces of meat could be seen everywhere, and the head of an evil beast ape rolled in.

Enzo crushed it with one foot.

"Why do you feel so tired?"

Enzo's face was slightly pale, with a serious expression on his face. He closed his eyes slightly, feeling the magic power in his body, and was a little surprised.

In just a short moment, one-third of the magic power in Enzo's body was consumed, which was a bit strange to Enzo, because what he was facing was just a group of low-level evil beasts.

Even though the ape demonic beasts can rely on the black mist to quickly recover themselves, in fact, they are still just a group of low-level demonic beasts. After discovering their weaknesses, they can be easily cleaned up, and there should be no need to waste so much magic power.
