Journey to the Wizarding World

Chapter 722 Indigenous God

"I know."

Ai Fan's face was pale, and he said with a wry smile, "For such a serious injury, even the best doctor in Tucker Kingdom may be helpless."

"It's just that I'm not reconciled..."

As he said that, a trace of hatred flashed in Ai Fan's eyes, he gritted his teeth and said: "That damned thief killed my whole family, I must make him pay the price!"

"Fourth Prince Anthony?"

With a blank expression on his face, Enzo shook his head and said, "In your current state, there is no chance for revenge."

"This...of course I know."

There was a trace of misery on Ai Fan's face, the luster in his eyes became increasingly dim, and he said weakly, "So... I want to ask you for help..."

"Me?" Enzo frowned.

At this time, Ai Fan tremblingly raised his hand, took out a dilapidated map with a metal key wrapped in it, and said, "Please take this key and seek the help of Grandma."

"She is the guardian of the Clark family and will definitely..."

Ai Fan's voice stopped abruptly, and finally lost his breath completely, Enzo couldn't help frowning slightly.

But looking at the map in Ai Fan's hand, Enzo narrowed his eyes slightly.

"This is?"

Enzo leaned down and took the map and the key from Ai Fan's hands, his eyes shone slightly.

The seemingly ordinary key reveals a trace of energy fluctuations.

Moreover, according to the scan of the chip, this map also has an ancient history, and is even made of a special material itself.

"The guardian of the Clark family?"

A trace of thought appeared on Enzo's face, and then he recorded the information on the map, hesitating slightly in his heart.

Enzo also knew a little about the Clark family.

It is said that this is the oldest family of the Tucker Kingdom. Although it has declined now, it once had a prominent position, even with a longer history than the Tucker Kingdom. It is the original ancestor of the Scarlet World.

But now, the family was destroyed by the fourth prince Anthony.

Inexplicably, Enzo became interested in the guardian of the Clark family, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

"Anyway, there's still plenty of time."

After thinking for a while, Enzo made a decision, decided to go to a place according to the instructions on the map.

……

In the blink of an eye, another three days passed.

As the old king passed away in vain, several princes began to attack each other in order to compete for the throne. As a result, the Tucker Kingdom fell into chaos and was shrouded in war everywhere, so a lot of bandits were born.

On this day, within the Kingdom of Tucker.

On the barren land, in a place with lush vegetation, there was a sound of hoofbeats. Enzo was riding a wild horse and was slowly moving forward.

In the sky, the sun hangs high.

"In about five days, we will almost reach our destination."

Riding on horseback, Enzo muttered to himself, holding a map in his hand, with mottled lines marking a place called the Withered Forest.

According to the description on the map, the Clark family has a guardian.

Although this guardian has fallen into a deep sleep many years ago, when the Clark family is in danger, they can rely on the golden key to go to the withered forest to seek help from the grandmother of the Clark family.

"A native demigod?"

Looking at the metal key in his hand, a trace of thought appeared on Enzo's face. As the oldest family in the Tucker Kingdom, the Clark family itself belonged to the descendants of the ancient ancestors of the scarlet world.

At the beginning of the birth of the Scarlet World, the ancestors multiplied and lived in this land.

Those who absorb the power of the world's gifts not only gain extraordinary power, but also are believed by the ancestors, becoming similar to the existence of indigenous gods.

In the multiverse, the formation of worlds is often like this.

In the early days of the birth of the world, the first creatures received the power of the world's gifts and became extraordinary existences. After a round of fighting, the survivors could become indigenous gods.

This is true for both the world of war ghosts and the world of forest spirits.

However, an accident occurred in the development of the Crimson World. Due to the arrival of the god corpses from outside the territory, the Chaos Blood Clan was born, thus forming an existence that could compete with the native demigods. After the battle broke out, the two sides fell into silence.

Against such a background, the scarlet world did not give birth to indigenous gods.

Before the end of the ancient era, the most powerful ancient creatures were only demigods, and no creature broke through the fourth-order limit.

After getting the map of the Clark family, Enzo began to infer.

He felt that the so-called guardians of the Clark family should be the demigod creatures who fought against the blood chaos in ancient times. Because they were injured in the battle, they fell into silence and have not woken up for many years.

Now the Clark family has been completely destroyed.

As the last blood of the family, Ivan handed the key and the map to Enzo on his deathbed, praying for him to find his grandmother and avenge the Clark family, but he didn't have much hope in his heart.

After all, many years have passed.

Even as the last bloodline of the Clark family, Ivan only heard a little about the guardian of the Clark family, and even for the vast majority of family members, it was more like a legend.

Enzo thinks everything is real.

Herod!
Just as En Zuo was thinking, there was a sound of horseshoes in front of him. Looking far away, he saw dust flying on the ground.

"Bandits?"

Enzo raised his brows, and a trace of indifference appeared on his face. Due to the chaos in the Kingdom of Tucker, bandits have been rampant recently. During the few days of his journey, he has encountered several waves of bandits.

When the group of unlucky gangsters saw En Zuo alone, they naturally thought they had encountered a fat sheep, but in the end they all died because of it.

Hearing the sound of horseshoes in the distance, Enzo's eyes were full of indifference.

But after waiting for a while, he didn't see the gangsters rushing towards him. Enzo looked over and found that the gangsters were actually fighting each other.

"Black eats black?"

Enzo suddenly realized that the gangsters in the distance belonged to two gangs, but for some reason, they started fighting in the wilderness.

The fighting in the distance is still going on.

Enzo was not interested in this, shook his head, and prepared to spare this place and settle down in a town not far from here.

But just as he was about to leave, he suddenly felt a special energy fluctuation.

"This is?"

Enzo narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at the gangsters who were fighting, and saw a bald gangster holding a bronze box with his arms.

"interesting!"

Enzo's eyes flickered slightly, and he felt the extraordinaryness of the bronze box, so he rode towards the gangsters who were fighting.

At this time, the two gangs of gangsters had gone through a fight, and there were very few left.

As Enzo approached, the bald gangster immediately became vigilant. He was about to call his men to deal with Enzo, but suddenly a shadow appeared behind him.

The next moment, the bald gangster was killed by the shadow cutting his throat.

"Boss!"

"Big brother is dead!"

When the gangsters around saw the bald man's death, they immediately exclaimed. Everyone saw the strange black shadow, and their faces showed horror.

Enzo's face was expressionless, and there was a trace of coldness in his eyes.

After embarking on a wizard journey for nearly two hundred years, with the continuous improvement of his strength, Enzo's attitude towards life has become more and more indifferent. Although he still follows his heart, he shows no mercy to these gangsters.

In a short while, dozens of gangsters were killed.

"The devil...the devil..."

The last gangster was dying, but his eyes still had the luster of survival, and he desperately crawled towards the metal box.

Enzo raised his eyebrows and waved his hand to end the life of the other party.

"Just for this thing?"

Enzo picked up the bronze box on the ground and looked carefully.

This is a cube metal box, the surface is covered with strange symbols, there is no gap to be seen, and there seems to be no way to open it.

Enzo threw the bronze box to the ground, and then waved his hand to release a burst of grudge.

Ding!
The grudge that could be crushed even by diamonds only left a mark on the bronze box, and it slowly healed within a short while.

Enzo narrowed his eyes slightly, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

It has been a few months since he came to the scarlet world, and Enzo's strength has reached the second level. He is capable of fighting even against a demigod, but he was a little surprised that he couldn't break the metal box.

Although, Enzo didn't use his full strength for that blow just now.

"It's really interesting."

The corners of Enzo's lips twitched slightly, a trace of seriousness appeared on his face, and then he waved his hand to form a sharp shadow blade. After taking a deep breath, he swung it fiercely.

Stab la la!
Amidst the sharp rubbing sound, the bronze box shattered, and inside was a shriveled claw, which seemed to come from some kind of beast.

"Monkey paw?"

Enzo frowned, picked up the monkey's paw on the ground, felt the strange fluctuations from it, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

This shriveled monkey paw was gray and white.

There are a total of five fingers on it, two of which are curled up and the remaining three are extended.

"Put it away first."

Enzo shook his head. Although he could feel the extraordinaryness of the monkey's paw, he didn't know what it represented, so he put away the monkey's paw.

After the episode, Enzo continued on the road.

According to the scarlet world map that Enzo got before leaving the southern border, there is a place called Monkey Tail Town ahead.

Enzo came to Houwei Town and planned to settle here now.

Not far away, a small town appeared in front of me.

Surrounded by a piece of Gobi desert, the hot sun baked the earth, the wind rolled up, and the sand and soil swept over the cactus.

"Welcome guests to Monkey Tail Town."

At the entrance of the town, an uncle sitting on a rock greeted Enzo warmly after seeing him.

Enzo nodded slightly, as a greeting.

Afterwards, he went straight into Houwei Town. The location is remote and the surrounding environment is also very harsh. It is considered a desert area, so many bandits have been bred. In addition to the recent chaos, it has become even more dangerous.

Not far away is a tavern.

Pushing open the shutter door in the middle, Enzo walked straight into the tavern. In the small space, there were several tables surrounded by men drinking and chatting.

"Have you heard? People from the Red Wine Club recently found a good thing near the mouth of the desert!"

"Gold? Jewelry?"

"Cut! What is gold? Haven't you heard the legend about the monkey's paw?"

The men's chatting attracted Enzo's attention.

With a thought in his heart, he found a seat by the window and sat down.

"The legend of the monkey's paw? Is that the cursed thing?"

"That's right!"

"Isn't that just a story?"

"Hey! I knew you'd heard of it."

"Of course, who grew up in Monkey Tail Town has never heard of the legend of Monkey's Paw?"

As the man said, he took out a claw-shaped jewelry from his arms, and said with a light smile, "I have one here too, what's so special about it?"

On the opposite side, another man dismissed it.

After casually knocking off his companion's monkey paw ornament, the man said mysteriously, "Your item is fake, but I heard that what Chijiu will get is the real item."

As they spoke, the two lowered their voices and began to whisper.

Through the conversation between them, Enzo vaguely learned the story about the monkey's paw.

Legend has it that there is a magical monkey's paw in this world. The person who gets it can make a wish as long as he leaves blood on it. If no wish is granted, one finger of the monkey's paw will curl up.

But correspondingly, people who use monkey paws will also be cursed strangely, and will eventually die while fulfilling their wishes.

In the history of the scarlet world, there were two people who got the monkey's paw. The former became the richest person in the world, but lost everything in a fire.

The other person is even more legendary.

He was originally a knight. After getting the monkey's paw, he made a wish to make himself a king. With the help of the monkey's paw, he actually became a king, and even established a country no less than the Kingdom of Tucker.

However, as in the legend, using the monkey's paw to make a wish will also bring a curse. The sanctuary knight who established a huge kingdom ended up destroying the country and dying, and no one in his family was spared.

Since then, the legend about the monkey's paw has been spread. The cursed monkey's paw was obtained by a wise man. He restrained his inner greed and sealed the monkey's paw instead of making a wish.

"Wishing Monkey's Paw?"

Enzo frowned, with a strange look on his face. In the multiverse, there are too many items with the ability to make wishes, but there are often certain restrictions.

For example, Enzo in his heyday can also create a wishing monkey paw and serve the magic power of the monkey paw to fulfill the wish, but the premise is that the wish cannot exceed Enzo's own ability.

"It's like a deal with the devil..."

Enzo muttered to himself, in the multiverse, the easiest way to make a wish is undoubtedly to make a deal with the devil, but again, if your wish is beyond the ability of the devil, the deal will naturally fail.

"try it?"

Enzo thought for a moment, took out the monkey's paw from his arms, dripped blood, and said his wish: "Give me a glass of beer!"

The original gray-white monkey paw began to glow slowly, and as one of the three fingers curled up, a glass of beer appeared in front of Enzo.

Looking at the wine glass in front of him, Enzo had a look of interest on his face.

"It looks...not bad!"
