The Witcher: From the Academy of Knights

"Brother, let's make a decision!"

Next to it, a female apprentice with a scar on her face said in a hoarse voice: "Since everyone dares to come here, they have already made preparations."

"Although the Redwood Forest is dangerous, it is also a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

"If we can find the Red Mystery Realm, maybe we will have the opportunity to step into a higher level!"

Hearing what the female apprentice said, the little dwarf finally made up his mind.

"Let's go, brothers!"

The little dwarf took a deep breath, and then led many of his men forward, intending to find out in the redwood forest.

at the same time.

There are many people who think like the little dwarfs, especially those wandering apprentices. Most of them have become monks halfway, and they have accidentally obtained the inheritance of wizards before embarking on this path.

Therefore, it is almost impossible for such a person to become a wizard.

Although the red mysterious realm is dangerous, it is also an opportunity for them. In order to pursue a higher level, many people are willing to take risks.

On the carriage, Sauron looked calm.

Even though he has been promoted to the wizard realm, he still dare not be careless about the red mysterious realm. After all, he is very clear about the existence of the red god.

Today, the Morun family has not entered the Redwood Forest, so Sauron will naturally not act rashly.

His biggest adventure is to send Rall the Raven to find out.

At this moment, in the redwood forest.

Crow Lal spread his wings and shuttled continuously in the lush forest. The surroundings were pitch black, and the trees seemed to block the moonlight.

Through the vision of the crow Lal, Sauron saw the situation inside the Redwood Forest.

brush!
Suddenly, a gust of wind hit, and a mahogany tree not far away seemed to have life, swinging its branches at the crow Lal.

However, Crow Lal reacted quickly.

Although after this period of training, Crow Lal's size has become particularly large, but its speed is still very flexible.

With just a twist, he escaped the whipping of the mahogany branches.

But then.

Surrounded by tall redwoods, the branches twisted and grew continuously, making strange noises, and at the same time, it seemed to turn this area into a cage.

"Cuck!"

The crow Lal, who was trapped in it, uttered a strange cry, then opened his beak, and spit out a ball of red fire.

boom!
With the impact of the fireball, a hole was punched out of the surrounding vine blockade, and the crow Ral shook his wings and rushed out of the flames.

The crow Lal, who had escaped from the sky, immediately flew up into the sky.

"Fortunately!"

Outside the forest, thoughts flickered in Sauron's mind. The situation just now was a bit dangerous. If it hadn't been for the fact that the crow Ral had evolved magical abilities, he might really be in danger.

Crow Lal, who was temporarily safe, did not leave the redwood forest.

Under Sauron's will, the crow Ral flew over the forest, watching everything that happened below with his sharp eyes.

At this moment, many people have already entered the redwood forest.

This ancient forest, which is regarded as a forbidden zone by ordinary people, has not been set foot in for many years, but now, there are waves of noises.

The redwood forest covers a large area.

If counting from the outside, the entire redwood forest is almost equivalent to half of the western region. With such a vast area, the survival of monsters is naturally indispensable.

On the outskirts of the redwood forest, there is not much danger.

However, as the transcendents continued to go deeper, they gradually encountered some monsters, each of which was a particularly terrifying beast.

Rumble!
In the redwood forest, a team of wandering apprentices was facing an enemy. The dwarf's face was gloomy, and his eyes were looking forward.

But not far away, a creature that looked like a rock giant slowly stood up.

"It's the tooth of the boulder!"

The scar-faced female apprentice turned pale, and said in a trembling voice, "Everyone, be careful, I've seen the tooth of the giant stone in an ancient book!"

"Once this kind of monster becomes an adult, even wizards will find it difficult to deal with it!"

While talking, Stone Fang also found this group of unexpected guests.

As a rock-type monster, Boulder Fang spends most of its time in a deep sleep, and if it wasn't for this group of people breaking into its own territory, it wouldn't wake up from its deep sleep.

Roar!
The disturbed Giant Stone Fang was very angry, let out a roar, and swept its thick tail violently, directly rolling up a rock.

boom!
The gigantic boulder roared in, and the faces of the dwarfs and the others changed slightly, and they spread out in all directions. No one dared to easily resist the attack of the boulder's teeth.

Bang! !

The rock hit the ground, and a deep pit appeared. The dwarf's face was gloomy, but his eyes shone brightly. Although the boulder fang was dangerous, if he could be killed, he could get rich rewards.

Not to mention the heart of Boulder Fang, which can be used as a high-quality material for refining puppets, and its blood alone is enough to sell hundreds of magic stones.

"Brothers, get ready to fight!"

The little dwarf took a deep breath, and took out a black wand from nowhere. It was covered with thorns and barbs, as if it was covered with blood.

"The devil transforms!"

The little dwarf held the wand with one hand and let the sharp barbs scratch his palm. As the blood flowed, his figure began to change.

In an instant, the little dwarf turned into a demon.

The skin of the whole body is crimson red, with barbs growing on both arms, and the gloomy eyes are shining with luster, full of evil and ominous aura.

Abyss Sinking Demon!
This is a low-level demon creature from the abyss, but it is the bloodline that the dwarfs rely on for survival, and it is also his biggest trump card.

Facing this giant stone tooth, the little dwarf didn't dare to be careless, so he used the strongest spell as soon as he made a move.

"I'll be the main attacker, and you will assist from the side!"

Following the short dwarf's order, the surrounding companions also began to disperse, and the scar-faced female apprentice threw out a long whip in an attempt to restrain the boulder-fang.

Snapped

In the hands of the female apprentice, the blood-red long whip seemed to have life. After restraining the teeth of the giant stone, it quickly shrank.

However, it was only for a moment.

Boulder Fang violently exerted force, and the whip broke immediately. The female apprentice's expression changed, and she stepped back one after another. Her attack did not control Boulder Fang, but completely enraged him.

Immediately, Boulder Fang let out a roar.

The terrifying sound waves spread towards the surroundings, and everyone felt their hearts tremble, as if a hammer had hit their chests.

The female apprentice's face was even paler, and her feet could not help shaking slightly.

Among the people present, only the dwarf, who had turned into a demon, was not affected. As the only quasi-shaman in the team, his mental strength was enough to be immune to the attack of the sound wave just now.

The next moment, Boulder Fang rushed forward.

"Get out of the way!"

The short dwarf shouted loudly, but it was too late. The male apprentice who was stunned in place was directly knocked into the air by the giant stone tooth's thick tail.

Bang!
With a scream, the male apprentice flew into the air, then hit the ground heavily, his limbs were broken, and he couldn't stand up after struggling.

"Damn!"

A gloomy look appeared on the female apprentice's face, and she flicked the long whip in an attempt to rescue her companion, but at this moment, Boulder Fang rushed towards her.

Bang!
In an instant, the head of the injured male apprentice was smashed to pieces, and the white brain mixed with blood flowed out, which was shocking.

Seeing this scene, several wandering apprentices showed sad expressions.

Only the little dwarf showed a hint of ferocity on his face.

"Death to me!"

The dwarf who turned into a fallen demon suddenly stopped the wand in his hand, and the black light shot away like a sharp arrow.

Bang!
The black light hit Boulder Fang's body, causing a lot of damage immediately, but as a rock-type monster, Boulder Fang doesn't seem to have a strong sense of pain.

Therefore, it just shook its head, then bent down and gnawed on the corpse below.

And this scene made the little dwarf even more angry.

The demon blood gave him great strength, but it also affected his personality. Now seeing his companion being killed, he rushed forward suddenly.

"Go together!"

Seeing this, the scar-faced female apprentice quickly led the crowd to besiege the Fang of the Giant Stone.

Like what happened to this team of wandering apprentices, it happened in the entire Redwood Forest, and those who tried to find the Red Mystic Realm were in trouble.

And outside the redwood forest.

More and more people were about to move, and even Sauron had a thoughtful expression on his face.

He controlled the crow Lal to fly into the sky, and looked towards the area where the Morun family was located. At this moment, the wizard of Fulun seemed to have begun to direct the family members to enter the Redwood Forest in different teams.

"Is it finally time to start?"

Sauron's eyes flickered, and the Morun family had already begun to take action, which was undoubtedly a stimulus for those wandering apprentice teams.

In this feast of competition for the Red Mystic Realm, the Morun family is the biggest banker. If they are allowed to enter the Red Mystic Realm first, the remaining wandering apprentices may not even get the leftovers in the end.

Thinking of this, another group of wandering apprentices entered the redwood forest in desperation.

But Sauron, who was standing on the carriage, noticed one thing, that is, although the Morun family started to act, the people currently sent to the Redwood Forest are only low-level apprentices.

The real wizards and strong men still sit firmly on the Diaoyutai.

"Do you have any scruples?"

Sauron was thoughtful. Wizard Fulun did not step into the redwood forest, which seemed to mean that the danger had not really been lifted.

Therefore, Sauron did not intend to act rashly.

Time passed bit by bit like this, and a few days passed quickly. More and more people entered the redwood forest, but most of them were wandering around the periphery, unable to set foot in the depths of the redwood forest.

More and more people died, and the Morun family had already begun to take action, but Wizard Falun never entered the Redwood Forest.

As time went by, many people even began to doubt whether the so-called Red Mystery Realm was a lie from beginning to end.

Outside the redwood forest, Sauron looked calm.

He had already made up his mind that unless Wizard Foran entered the Redwood Forest, he would never step into it easily.

After all, the incident in the Red Mystic Realm was triggered by the Morun family, and Wizard Fulun must have information that Enzo did not understand.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

In the area where the Morun family was located, Wizard Falun stood on the spot with a calm expression on his face, but a glint of light flashed in his eyes.

Behind him, several young people from the Morun family stood there.

"Hank and Zarka what's going on?"

Suddenly, Wizard Foran asked.

"Wizard Hank has entered the Redwood Forest, and Wizard Zarka is gone."

Behind him, a young apprentice whispered.

"Ah!"

Wizard Fulun chuckled, and said quietly: "Zarka is a cunning guy, but these little tricks don't make any sense."

While speaking, Wizard Foran raised his head.

"It's almost time, let's all get ready!"

"In half an hour, enter the redwood forest!"

Hearing Wizard Fulun's words, the members of the Morun family behind them were all moved. After waiting for so long, is the Red Mystery Realm finally about to open?

"Yes, the patriarch."

Everyone nodded in unison, and then began to prepare according to Wizard Falun's order.

After everyone left, wizard Fulun's eyes flickered.

"According to the book, the opening of the Red Mystic Realm requires blood sacrifice. So many people died during this period, it should be almost the same!"

Wizard Foran muttered to himself.

Afterwards, he took a deep breath. He had been planning for the Red Mysterious Realm Morun Family for many years, and if he could succeed, he would definitely be able to reap great rewards.

Half an hour later, Wizard Falun led the elite family into the Redwood Forest.

This behavior is like a stone stirring up a thousand waves.

The wandering apprentices who were still on the sidelines had already taken action when they saw Wizard Falun, and even without any hesitation, they all headed towards the redwood forest.

At the same time, Sauron also had a thought.

"Has it finally begun?"

Sauron's eyes flickered, and he ordered Phils, the corpse puppet, to drive the carriage towards the mahogany forest, while Rall the crow flew ahead to explore the way.

Not long after, the carriage entered the redwood forest.

Sauron was very vigilant in his heart. What happened in the past few days has proved how dangerous the redwood forest is.

Even if an extraordinary person sets foot here easily, he may be killed by those powerful monsters if he is a little careless, not to mention that the redwood forest is full of other dangers.

Swish!
The carriage was moving forward, when there was a slight sound in the distance, Sauron looked around, but saw a red snake quietly climbing down from the tree.

call out!
It took only a moment for the red snake to appear, and then it turned into a red line, heading straight for Phils, the corpse puppet in front of the carriage.

The bloody fangs bit Ferrs' arm, and the toxin was injected into it instantly.

This red snake is only as thick as a baby's arm, and it looks like a stronger hunter can trample to death, but the toxin contained in its fangs is enough to kill a giant elephant, and anyone who scratches it slightly will surely die.

In the past, the red snake used its fangs to hunt basically without any disadvantage.

But this time, its fangs didn't do anything.

The corpse puppet Phils was originally a corpse. It was the power of witchcraft that gave him the ability to stand up. Now he was bitten by a poisonous snake without any effect.

brush!
The next moment, the puppet Phils pulled out the cross sword and cut the red snake in two. (end of this chapter)
