Chapter 136 Cooperation
"Huh?" Ryan glanced over, keenly noticing the corpse with a severed arm not far away.

The corpse was not facing him, but was facing the direction of the stone house, and the position of the broken arm after bandaging was facing the direction of Ryan.

With his eyesight, it is impossible to make a mistake at this distance. He can be sure that the severed arm of the corpse definitely twitched just now, as if something was about to come out of it.

"Could it be that the function of this Gu worm is not just to eat internal organs, but also have other abilities?" Ryan was secretly startled.

Seeing that Eddis was still adjusting his breath to fight against the Gu worm in his body, Ryan quietly analyzed the corpse with the severed arm.

[The parasitic body of the shadow butterfly: This is a body that has been devoured by the Gu worm "Shadow Butterfly" and is transforming the invading body, control progress: 56%]
[Shadow Butterfly is a special Gu worm from the forbidden place in the wilderness Gu domain. To refine Shadow Butterfly, you need to find a place where bright moon flowers grow on a full moon night, before sunrise the next day.]
[Shadow butterflies can invade the human body, divide and reproduce rapidly in a short period of time, and finally eat the internal organs of the human body and cause the death of the parasitized person.After hollowing out the body of the parasite, it will transform the corpse of the deceased, and finally turn the corpse into a body suitable for its own manipulation and living, and then control its muscles and nerves to turn the dead into a zombie-like existence. ]
"Shadow butterfly? Manipulating the human body?" Ryan's pupils shrank slightly.

The result of the analysis is very detailed, not only the ability of this Gu insect named "Shadow Butterfly" is written, but even the refining method is analyzed, but the conditions are very strict, you must find it in a certain forest in the wilderness Gu domain.

This discovery surprised Ryan secretly.

According to the results of the analysis, the two dead bodies will eventually become like zombies. The shadow butterfly will even help the man with the broken arm to grow back the lost arm. Unfortunately, he is already dead, and even if he grows out, he will still be the puppet body of the shadow butterfly.

Sure enough, in less than 2 minutes, the bandaged wound of the man with the broken arm was broken through by weird granulation.

The granulation is not the same color as the body, but green-black, like many small tentacles, which are rapidly extending outward at a speed visible to the naked eye. Judging from this speed, the entire arm should be able to "grow" completely in less than 5 minutes.

Eddie, with his back to the corpse, did not notice this scene.

"Cough cough!"

Eddie, who was sitting cross-legged, suddenly coughed loudly, as if he was going to cough out his throat, and suddenly, with a "poof!", Eddie's face turned red, and his mouth clenched his teeth swelled rapidly.

"Wow!" Edith opened his mouth wide, and sprayed out a long, weird bug that was nearly the size of a fist.

The body of this bug is slender, relatively thick, dark purple in color, with staggered lines on the body surface, a round head, a pair of short and sharp mouthparts, and many small black scales on the body.

It was ugly to the extreme, Ryan had never seen anything weird looking.

Along with the weird bug, Eddis spit out a small amount of dark red blood and some internal organs.

After spitting out the ugly worm, Eddis' complexion became very pale, but there was a trace of blood in the paleness, which was obviously much better than before.

This secret place is full of weirdness, what kind of magister's retreat is this, it is clearly a nest of insects!Thinking about it now, the tentacle monster on the grassland just now was probably also a product of Gu insects.

This is only the part that has been exposed, how many terrifying Gu worms are hidden under the water?
In such a weird place, Ryan is not sure enough to escape unscathed. Although "conviction" should be able to break through the secret realm, if it is not a last resort, he does not want to reveal his identity.

After hesitating for a moment, Ryan temporarily let Eddis go.

This old guy has been in the fourth level for so many years, and he has already noticed that something is wrong with the magic circle before he got close to the stone house. He has a specialization in magic, and this old guy Eddis must be much better than him, a priest, in terms of magic circle.

Since Eddis hasn't recognized his identity yet, he might as well cooperate with this old guy temporarily.

After taking the potion, Eddie's complexion was much rosier than before. To be honest, he was really worried that Ryan would take the opportunity to attack him. Although it didn't seem like a big scene happened just now, he had actually been at the juncture of life and death several times.

Although he seems to have recovered a lot now, he is actually very weak, strong on the outside but capable on the inside.

"Old guy, do you believe my words now?" Ryan, who was standing not far away, sneered: "If I had done something to you just now, you would have died talking to me here now."

Edith narrowed his eyes slightly, and did not immediately refute Ryan's words.

"It seems that the old man took it for granted." Edith's voice was a little hoarse, and every time he said a word, his throat hurt like swallowing sand. The mouthparts of the Gu worm were too sharp, leaving many wounds in his body.

"This secret place is very strange. Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, you might as well join hands with the old man and find a way to get out of here." Edith stared at Ryan.

He is now strong on the outside and weak on the inside, and he needs the protection of a magic swordsman like Ryan very much.

"Huh?" Ryan raised his brows. It seemed that the old guy really didn't recognize him, and he thought of going with him.

However, he didn't immediately agree, but raised his jaw towards the corpse with the broken arm, and said coldly: "You should solve his problem first, I think, in less than 2 minutes, your companion will probably lose control."

Hearing this, Eddie's complexion changed slightly, and he turned his head to look in the direction Ryan was pointing at. He saw that the man with a broken arm who was kneeling on the ground in a zigzag shape had grown a strange flesh-like arm at some point.

Ryan was right, depending on the situation, in a minute or so, the arm will be completely condensed, only the last half of the palm and five fingers are left.

"Huh!" Eddie hummed, raised his right hand in the direction of the two corpses, and began to chant in a low voice at the same time.

High-level fire magic - Pyro-explosive wave!

The fiery red flame condensed in Eddis's palm, without any warning, the flame suddenly expanded with a "crack" sound, and then contracted violently immediately!

Suddenly, the powerful flame formed a shock wave like a heat wave and shot straight at the two corpses.

"Boom!" The fiery orange-red flames ignited on the two corpses in brown robes, and even Ryan could feel the violent heat in the distance.

The Gu worm hadn't completely completed its transformation, and couldn't control the corpse to fight, only heard the scream of "Zhi Zhi", and after a while, both corpses were turned into charred, and the Gu worm in their bodies died completely together.

"This Eddie's strength is indeed very strong. The temperature of the flame may have exceeded [-] degrees." Ryan thought to himself.

Judging from the memory of his previous life, the temperature of the orange flame is at least [-] degrees, which is even higher than the temperature of some surface magma.

It seems that the flame burn marks he saw on the grassland before should be Eddis's handwriting.

Edith, with his back to Ryan, turned slightly pale after releasing the spell. In order not to let Ryan notice the strangeness, he did not turn around immediately, but still turned his back to Ryan and said calmly: "This old man is the great magician of Gancheng Magic Association, Eddis Burton."

"Lynn Drake, the third-order wandering magic swordsman." Ryan stared at Eddis's back: "The great magician, Eddis wants to cooperate with me, naturally there is no problem."

"But Your Excellency Eddis, shouldn't you explain to me the reason for this secret realm first?"

"I think that a team of three high-level magicians led by a great magician should not come to the secret territory deep in the Gobi for no reason."

Eddis was silent for a moment, and said, "This is a task of my Gancheng Magic Association."

"Mission? What kind of mission will send high-level magicians to die? If I remember correctly, the Magic Association is a very loose organization, right?"

Ryan sneered: "If Your Excellency Edith doesn't plan to tell the truth, I won't force you. I, Lynn, can get in and get out of this secret place!"

Hearing this, a cold light flashed in the eyes of Edith, who was facing away from Ryan, but he is completely strong at the moment, and if he really fights, he may not be the opponent of the magic swordsman Lynn.

Demon swordsmen are generally much stronger than magicians of the same level, and even restrain magicians somewhat. After all, compared to the fragile body of magicians, the existence of magic swordsman's "dual cultivation of magic and martial arts" is really a bit of a dimensionality reduction blow.

Normally, he wouldn't take a third-tier magic swordsman seriously, but at this moment, he is completely seriously injured, and his body is in a complete mess. If he exerts too much energy, it may cause irreversible consequences.

"Forget it, since His Excellency Edith intends to keep this a secret, then I won't force it." Ryan shook his head, making a gesture to leave, without even looking back.

"Wait." Edith said suddenly: "This is a place where a magister lives in seclusion. The purpose of our coming here is to obtain the wealth he left behind."

"The legacy of the magister?" Ryan clicked his tongue lightly, and said with a smile, "No wonder it attracts such a great magician as His Excellency Eddis."

"It seems that we have a basis for cooperation."

"If I'm not mistaken, Your Excellency Eddis should break through to the fifth level soon?" Ryan stared at Eddis's back.

Edith turned around, looked at Ryan and said calmly: "The old man has been in the fourth level for hundreds of years, and he must make some progress."

After getting Eddis's affirmative answer, Ryan nodded and said with a smile: "That's easy. Just give me the materials that Eddis doesn't need. I'm not greedy."

Eddis didn't speak, and stared at Ryan with indifferent eyes.

for a long time.

"Okay, I just want his body." Edith said hoarsely.

"It must be very uncomfortable for Eddie to be coerced by me." Ryan sneered in his heart, wanting a dead body?If he let Eddie get benefits and leave this secret place safely today, then his name will be written upside down!

Gaining benefits is the primary goal, but bad things about Eddie are equally important. It is best to get karma from him after using the old guy. The karma contributed by the fourth level is not a small amount.

"It's my honor to cooperate with a strong man like Eddis." Ryan nodded and eased the atmosphere.

Now that the cooperative relationship has been temporarily confirmed, there is no need to make too much trouble.

Seeing this, Eddis also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. If Ryan insists on leaving, or chooses to do it, with his current state, he is really not sure that he can keep this kid.

After a short rest, Ryan turned his head to look at the stone house, carefully observing this weird house while keeping a safe distance.

The stone house doesn't look very big, it should be more than 100 square meters at most. The gate is facing the cliff. From their position, they can barely see the darkness inside.

"Leave the magic circle to the old man." Eddis said indifferently.

As one of the top magicians in the Gancheng Magic Association, he is not only extremely talented and powerful, but also has a profound research on the magic circle. If it hadn't been for the unexpected situation just now, he should have solved the magic circle. Even so, he now has a lot of clues.

There are many ways to break the magic circle, but there are only two commonly used ones.

The first method, to put it simply, is to find the key nodes and inscriptions of the magic circle, and analyze these nodes and inscriptions to decipher the magic circle, but the premise of doing this is to have enough knowledge accumulation, otherwise even if you find it, you will not be able to recognize it, let alone analyze it.

The second method is to forcibly break through the magic circle through energy reversal on the basis of the previous one. As long as the local or overall energy flow direction is reversed, the function of the magic circle can be disturbed or even destroyed. Compared with the first method, this method is much simpler, but it is easy to destroy the magic circle and even the stone house.

As a great magician, Eddis naturally would not choose a simple and rude reversal. He had already found the node of this magic circle just now, and even analyzed the core logic of the magic circle through some inscriptions.

I saw Eddis standing less than one meter in front of the magic circle. While singing in a low voice, the magic power of the magic circle gradually appeared in his eyes.

After a few minutes.

"Sure enough, I didn't expect it." A smile appeared on Eddie's face, and his mental strength and magic power condensed to pry into the magic circle, like a key inserted into a door lock.

Suddenly, Ryan felt as if he heard a faint crisp sound, and then there was a faint tremor on the ground, as if a machine that hadn't been turned off for a long time suddenly stopped its gears, and it took two "clicks" to stop completely.

"Go!" Eddie said succinctly.

Ryan understood, followed Eddie's footsteps, and walked cautiously towards the stone house. In the palm of his left hand, the chain was always in the limit state of being triggered, just stuck to the extent that it could not be perceived. Once an accident happened, he could respond in time.
