Chapter 49 The Raven Hag

After resting for a while, without stopping too much in the dangerously overgrown swamp, Alwin chose to go straight back.

“Occasionally it’s okay to catch magic medicine ingredients as a preparation, but if you spend all day running around for a variety of strange medicines that grow in the north of the Southern Sea, the time and energy you spend will be too much of a loss.

Maybe the way of grabbing wealth from the sea and then converting it into various Cultivation resources is more suitable for me.”

Although I just finished it once without a single injury. A successful hunt, but Alwin is already thinking about moving away from this routine in the future.

The ancients said that Cultivation needs “wealth, companionship, law, and land”, but for Alwin, who is a wizard apprentice, in addition to “wealth”, the other elements of Cultivation at this stage may come by with luck, but not by searching for it.

Alwin wasn’t in a hurry.

As a promising naval officer, his future is destined to be on the vast sea, where wealth, treasures and power will be obtained.

This is also the charm of the sea for generations to continue exploring.

“There will be milk, and there will be bread.”

Whoosh——

Leveraging lightly on the fallen dead wood, Alwin is like a The sturdy cheetah quickly travels between the islands that are not far apart. What might be a day’s walk for an ordinary person might take an hour for Alwin.

And it’s much faster to go back than to come.

For Alwin, there are no secrets anymore. Where is the foothold? Where might the danger be lurking? obvious at a glance.

But Alwin’s luck was obviously not that good today, the weather was changing faster than he was returning.

When he just left the continuous land island and stepped on the solid ground, a thick fog of unfathomable mystery swept the whole swamp in a short time, and it became dark all of a sudden.

Although it’s still not enough to reach out and see five fingers, it also greatly affects his sight.

After all, “Data Vision” is based on Alwin’s senses, but it can’t enhance his vision, and he doesn’t dare to rush on the road in this weather.

Cautiously, Alwin paused, chopped down some grease-rich branches, made a torch, then slowed down and moved on.

The crocodile hunt had taken Alwin’s time, and he didn’t want to spend the night in such a ghost place.

The time in the “Data Vision” shows that it is 2:54 PM.

He wanted to get himself out of the swamp before five o’clock, otherwise it might be completely dark before five o’clock in this weather, bringing him more unpredictable dangers.

Different from ghost legends that only existed in fantasy or stories in previous lives, this world is a world where extraordinary power manifests. Knight and wizard have already appeared, will those weird and terrifying things be far behind?

Alwin doesn’t want to see the horrors and grotesques that must be real in this fantasy world!

Unfortunately, things didn’t change according to Alwin’s will.

As time passed by, the traces left when he came were still clearly discernible, but Alwin felt that the road under his feet had become significantly longer.

It’s not the elongation of the spatial scale in the real sense, but in Alwin’s sense, at his normal pace, he should have left this piece of woodland next to the swamp at this time.

But with the light of the torch, there is still a messy forest where the dark can’t see the edge, no birds or insects, quiet and eerie.

Slowly stopping, Alwin had to admit that something happened that he couldn’t understand for the time being.

“Did the ghost hit the wall?”

For a while, he couldn’t help but feel a little scalp numb with his boldness. Poison insect and beast are nothing, and the unknown fear is the most terrifying. .

And I don’t know if it was an illusion, the moment Alwin stopped, he felt that countless pairs of eyes suddenly opened on the tree canopy all around, staring at him without blinking.

Alwin’s face somewhat gloomy.

This area is clearly marked as a non-dangerous area on the map, at least there should be no super Ordinary Level biological activities that can threaten him, but now Alwin just wants to scold the profiteer who sold him the map!

But that’s all for the future.

The immediate crisis has come!

“Pop La La, Flapp La La”

A large flock of birds flew from the forest.

Crows!

In addition to crows, crows!

Compared to a small falcon, hundreds of thousands of them flew at the same time, their wings connected together to block the sky, and even the last faint light source was blocked.

Darkness has come.

The scene in front of him was too bizarre, completely beyond Alwin’s comprehension, and involuntarily took two steps back, the torch in his hand seemed to be affected by his fluctuating mood, and flickered a few times.

Meanwhile.

Whoosh—

one after another A cool, humid, oddly-scented wind blows through the treetops and gathers from all directions.

“Quack, quack, quack”

Alwin turned back suddenly, but then deng deng took two steps back.

I couldn’t even control the power under my feet, and I stepped on several deep footprints in the mud.

Because, right behind Alwin, on the tree close at hand, a “monster” was quietly squatting on the top of the tree.

It has an abstract deformed human face, wrinkled yellow skin, a nose that protrudes like a bird’s beak, and gray eyes with blood light flashes of cruelty and indifference !

Almost alienated into claws on its hands and feet, covered in black feathers, but with a delicate wreath around its neck.

Squatting on the tree, like a mutated adult crow spirit, just a glance at it makes people feel strong discomfort.

“ga ga!”

A red-eyed crow standing on its shoulders, tilted its head very humanely, looked towards Alwin, and quacked twice, making people Even more cold.

Crow hag! ! !

Even though Alwin was new to the Transcendent World, he had heard of the creature’s fame.

In Leon’s notes, there is a detailed description of the crow hag. It’s just that Leon, who is more concerned by Alwin, did not record what he experienced at the time, but it will not be pleasant anyway. experience.

Different from demonized creatures that have formed stable populations and violent creatures transformed into ordinary animals.

Crow hags are not a natural monster, their predecessors are actually witches among humans!

Different from the orthodox wizard’s Cultivation path, which gradually transforms from nothing, they are like demonized creatures. They gradually grow with age after birth, and they are born with the ability to awaken some supernatural powers.

To a certain extent, they are all born sorcerers favored by the gods.

But.

But if there is no systematic guidance, learning, and perfect mastery of this innate talent, they will face a terrible risk of losing control while growing rapidly.

Like a skyscraper with a crooked foundation, the stronger it is, the higher the risk of losing control!

Until a certain day.

When their magic power is out of control or they die with resentment, if they are not dealt with and purified in time, they may have mutation with their crow pet and become this ugly and terrifying monster – crow hag .

More importantly, their staple food is people!
