Versatile Mage: Shadow of Dimension

Chapter 70
Tonight, instead of chatting around the bonfire as usual, everyone returned to the tent early, and the time for vigil was also advanced.

The area surveyed today is near the depths of the Phoenix Forest, and it is also the most dangerous place.

Although the temporary camp was relatively safe, demons were spotted around more frequently than in the past few days, which forced everyone to be more vigilant.

"I always feel like something is wrong with this experience." Jiang Yinyun, who had returned from patrol, sat next to Zhang Chenran, her tone a little strange.

"Something's wrong? What do you mean?" Zhang Chenran looked at her puzzled.

Jiang Yinyun thought for a while and said:

"I feel that this experience is a bit...too easy. Except for the group of green forest wolves we met before stepping into the Phoenix Forest, we hardly encountered any monsters that could threaten us."

Those demons are all in my shadow, it would be strange for you to meet them. Zhang Chenran frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about what she said.

The night before departure the next day, he would play the role of "nanny" in advance, cleaning up the big monsters in front of the team.

The little monsters that the team encountered on the second day came out from other areas to look for food, and they were no threat to the team of 16 mid-level mages at all.

Whether it was the monsters who came here, or those monsters who majored in spiritual power in the Phoenix Forest, they were all novel species to him.

He has collected almost all the servant-level undead and warrior-level undead in the ancient capital.

What interests him now are those monsters with strange methods.

The soul-eating underworld butterfly harvested just two days ago has a method similar to psychic magic.

It's a pity that there are too few monster species like this. I went to Phoenix Forest to look for it for several days but couldn't find it.

"Perhaps something happened. Those groups in the outer forest have all migrated to the depths." Zhang Chenran explained.

Jiang Yinyun sighed, hoping it was what he said.

"Don't think about it, it's a good thing for us." Zhang Chenran was about to raise his hand to rub her head.

Jiang Yinyun seemed to have been prepared for a long time, she shrank her head back and glared at him with wide eyes:
"Do you really think of yourself as an uncle?"

"Old Feng asked me to take care of you more." Zhang Chenran pushed the blame to Feng Zhoulong.

"Humph!" Jiang Yinyun snorted dissatisfiedly.

Zhang Chenran shrugged innocently, then looked at her.

This girl has outstanding strength among her peers and an even more terrifying background, but her temperament is rather weak.

However, she will always pursue what she is interested in. Her own strength and fusion magic are good examples.

She is interested in magic and is even more obsessed with fusion magic.

Perhaps it was because Jiang Yinyun was so similar to him that Zhang Chenran got along with her so well.

He hasn't stopped since he came into contact with magic.

He is also very interested in fusion magic besides all magic knowledge, and now he has mastered it.
.........

late at night.

Zhang Chenran slipped out of the camp as usual.

But this time he went to the depths of the Phoenix Forest, where the leader-level monsters existed!

Following Soul-Eating Mingdie's guidance, Zhang Chenran lurked in the darkness.

Passing through the forest, a waterfall comes into view ahead.

The waterfall seems to be covered with a dreamy phantom, which looks like a mirage.

"Is this the special mind stone that you sensed earlier?" Zhang Chenran pointed to the clear spring below the waterfall and looked at the Soul-Eating Underworld Butterfly on his shoulder.

"Hey!" The Soul-Eating Underworld Butterfly sent out a sweet voice to convey the message to him.

"Not in the lake, but behind the waterfall?" Zhang Chenran looked at the mirage-like waterfall.

The dreamlike shadow outside the waterfall should be a scene caused by the influence of telepathy.

If the Nianshi was behind the waterfall, wouldn't he have to dig a passage?

Digging the tunnel, the shadow behind Zhang Chenran expanded in all directions.

Three shadow-patterned troll rats and a dozen giant-eyed rats crawled out of the shadows.

"Oh!!!!!!!"

This group of rat creatures let out a chilling growl, as if announcing to the nearby creatures that they will occupy this place with the king!

Without even thinking about it, Zhang Chenran kicked on the fat body of the leading dark pattern troll mouse.

"Shut up! Call the Commander here and you'll beat him!" Zhang Chenran said angrily.

Immediately, the roar of rats stopped instantly.

With this group of rat creatures to rely on, they pretended to be powerful, and even the way they appeared became more high-profile.

The big eyeballs of the kicked shadow troll mouse were full of grievances.

"Go, lead the rats to dig a passage into the rocks behind the waterfall!" Zhang Chenran ordered.

The three dark-patterned troll rats were the first to bear the brunt, and they led the younger brothers behind them to dig the wall and dig a tunnel.

The giant-eyed rats are experts at digging tunnels. When Bo City was in disaster, they dug tunnels to let monsters flood into the city.

A dozen giant-eyed fishy rats, led by the warrior-level dark-patterned giant demon rats, dug a five-meter-wide passage in just a few minutes.

Suddenly, telepathy stronger than the normal area of ​​Phoenix Forest surged out of the tunnel.

Zhang Chenran's figure turned into darkness and rushed into the tunnel impatiently.

Pieces of silver-clear stones are embedded in different corners of the tunnel.

Those thought stones that were dug down on the way were stuffed into the mouth by one of the giant-eyed rats, and the giant-eyed rat opened its mouth and spit out dozens of thought stones.

Zhang Chenran glanced at it with some distaste, and then randomly took a thought stone from the top of the tunnel.

He could sense the spiritual power contained in this special mind stone.

However, in addition to spiritual power, there are also two different breaths mixed in, the two breaths are water element and earth element respectively.

Strictly speaking, these special stones cannot be called mind stones.

They are affected by their surroundings, and they can preserve the elemental energy and mind power around them.

Among them, the energy of the water and soil elements is relatively high, but the thought power contained in them is very scarce.

Although the quality is not good, they are plentiful!

If you absorb all the mental power contained in all the special stones in this tunnel, your mental power will definitely be greatly improved!

The dark-striped blood rat and the giant-eyed rat were taken back into the shadows, and they were replaced by the skeleton army.

The skeleton that crawled out of the shadow looked left and right, as if looking for where the enemy was.

Turned into shadow-born skeletons, they have lost their desire for food, replaced by an indelible fighting spirit!

"Dig out all these stones and put them back into the shadows." Zhang Chenran ordered to extinguish their fighting spirit.

After receiving the order, the Shadowborn Skeleton Legion first looked at its companions, and then at its own black pointed finger bones.

Boom!Boom!Boom!
The sounds of bones and walls echoed in the tunnel.

It took nearly half an hour for hundreds of skeletons to dig up all these special stones containing energy.

Zhang Chenran sensed the special stone in the shadow and was quite satisfied.

It's great to have the Shadowborn Legion, you don't have to do the dirty work yourself.

"Hey!" The soul-eating butterfly on the shoulder made a melodious voice.

Zhang Chenran looked at it doubtfully at first, then he was stunned after interpreting the information in his mind:

"When you discovered the special energy in this area, you also discovered other creatures. Were you driven away by them?"

I'm stuck and have a cold today, so it took me so long to type out a supplementary chapter.

What should I do on the [-]th? QAQ
