Versatile Mage: Throne of Dimensions

Chapter 150 Hidden dangers outside Shennongjia

After the old woman went to bed, Su Zhe turned off the light in the room, fearing that the light would disturb the old woman's rest.

Su Zhe and Dahuang looked at the letter in the moonlight. In other words, it was not a letter, but just a note left by their son when he went out.

"Mom, I went out to patrol the forest. I have already prepared breakfast. You can just warm it up. I feel that the forest has been a bit uneasy recently. I can always hear inexplicable roars. It makes people feel panicked. Can you Please pay attention to safety."

"Inexplicable roar?" Su Zhe and Da Huang looked at each other, "Roar? Have you heard it, Da Huang?"

Dahuang shook his head, "No, I hadn't come to the village at that time, and there was something inexplicable about the roar. Maybe the boy was suspicious."

Su Zhe touched his chin and said, "No, I remember that my mother-in-law's eldest son was also a forest patrol mage. He shouldn't be flustered when he hears the roar of the demon."

"By the way Dahuang, when did you arrive at Zhonglie Village?"

Dahuang thought about it and said, "I arrived at Zhonglie Village not long after my mother-in-law's eldest son and second son died."

Su Zhe thought for a moment, "Then you really didn't feel anything was wrong?"

Dahuang shook his head firmly, "I am a totem beast who is good at exploration. Every day I carefully inspect the area around Zhonglie Village. There must be nothing unusual, otherwise I would have discovered it long ago."

At that time, Dahuang was already an established monarch, and the only ones who could escape Dahuang's detection were probably emperors.

Would an emperor fall in love with a small village? Obviously impossible.

"I think there must be a demon who wants to attack Zhonglie Village. You happened to come to Zhonglie Village and mistakenly thought that Zhonglie Village was your territory. I felt that I couldn't defeat you, so I retreated." Su Zhe analyzed.

Su Zhe thought for a while and said, "My mother-in-law's eldest son is a forest patrol mage, so he should have a work diary, right? Let's go look for his work diary and see if there is anything unusual in it."

Dahuang nodded, walked into her mother-in-law's room lightly, and looked for her work diary.

The mother-in-law collected all the relics of her deceased relatives in one place, and found a thick diary from the place where her mother-in-law had put letters, with the four characters "work diary" written on it.

Taking the work diary outside the house and carefully blowing away the dust floating on it, Su Zhe and Dahuang looked at each page carefully.

"January 24th, XX year. Today, while patrolling the forest, I investigated some dangerous locations."

"On March 21, XX, I saw a mountain man today when I was patrolling the forest. Something seemed wrong. Let's take a closer look."

"On April 7, XX, I killed three mountain men today. These ghosts actually ran to the outskirts of Shennongjia. I need to ask for support."

"On May 8, XX, these cunning mountain men seemed to have finally retreated. I hope the smell of blood here will not attract demons."

"On May 12th, XX, I always heard an inexplicable roar when I went to bed tonight. Sometimes it seemed like someone was whispering in my ear, as if something was wrong." Su Zhe carefully put his work into practice. Turning to the next page of the diary, something seemed to go wrong on May 12th, when the inexplicable roar appeared.

"On May 15th, XX, after several days of confirmation, it seems that a strange demon really appeared around the village. I don't know what its intentions are. It seems to only be targeting me. The people in the village Ordinary people are not affected by it, do you want to get rid of me who is the biggest threat first?"

"On June 13, XX, I finally saw the monster hiding in the dark. When I found it, it was less than five meters away from me. I have been exhausted physically and mentally by it this month. , the detection ability has declined so seriously. Fortunately, I used the magic of muscle memory to scare it away, otherwise once I die, the village will be in danger."

Su Zhe continued to read, and it seemed that this demon had a very strong concealment ability. Even though the mother-in-law's eldest son had been mentally exhausted that month, as a patrol mage, ordinary demons could not get close to him.

"The demon looks like a demon fox, but its tail has a weird shape. It seems to be constantly changing in my eyes, sometimes changing into the shape of stars, sometimes changing into the shape of leaves."

"I reported the news to my superiors, but a mage who was good at detecting came over for a few days but found nothing. My colleagues had no choice but to retreat. I hope it was scared away by me and would not dare to covet this village again. "

Su Zhe continued to flip through the diary, but after just reading the contents of the next few days, the diary came to an abrupt end.

Dahuang lowered his eyes, "My mother-in-law's eldest son died during this time."

Su Zhe closed his eyes and carefully recalled the contents of the diary, "This monster has been mentioned in the diary. I think it was making strange roars to target the eldest son of the mother-in-law in order to kill the strongest mage in the village. , to achieve its own purpose, its strength should not be too strong, so it does not dare to attack directly, so it is scared away by the magic of the mother-in-law's eldest son."

Su Zhe took out the demon illustration he carried with him, "What is this demon that looks like a fox but has a tail that can change its shape at will?"

Su Zhe flipped through his demon illustrated book and sent messages to several teachers he knew.

Li Xiuxian, Lin Manxing, and Yan Ruyu are all very knowledgeable and talented. Su Zhe also asked them one by one for advice, and finally got the news about this monster.

"The deceitful fox demon uses its tail to cause interference similar to the psychic system. It often uses this to distract powerful opponents and achieve the goal of final victory. It is a small warrior-level demon that mostly acts alone, but there are often two. The cunning fox demons above cooperate with each other to complete the hunting mission."

Su Zhe frowned and said, "Dahuang, get ready. Say goodbye to your mother-in-law tomorrow, and we will go into the mountains to look for this treacherous fox monster. This kind of monster will be an absolute disaster if it is left alive."

If a monster attacks humans head-on, the city wall can block it. Once such a monster appears that can affect human hearts, Su Zhe will definitely try to kill it.

Because this kind of demon is like a judge holding the book of life and death to ordinary people. It targets anyone who has no magic skills. Through the interference of the spiritual system, it can lure them out of the city and then kill them.

Dahuang nodded. Although the direct cause of his mother-in-law's eldest son's death was the mountain man's attack, of course he would not let go of such an evil monster.

Su Zhe went to the magician-only area in the city overnight to buy some props. Anyway, he was going into the mountains to kill monsters. Being able to deal with these extremely harmful monsters was obviously a good thing that killed two birds with one stone.
