Mage Joan

Chapter 16 Green Terror (Ⅲ)

The small team led by Mr. Pinkerton is certainly not comparable in size to the investigation team organized by the military, but the average strength of the team members is one grade higher than that of the military investigation team.

The leader Pinkerton is a 14th-level ranger, Audrey has been promoted to a 12th-level "Blue Sky Knight", Holden is a 11th-level poet, Hailar is a 13th-level magic warrior, and even Hailar's favorite enlightenment parrot "Dolly" is also Possess 2 levels of warlock.

In addition to the "Colorful Jet" that she was born with, Dolly also awakened two new magics-"Laughter" and "Magic Missile".

The team’s professional collocation is also very reasonable. There are rangers who are responsible for tracking and tracing, paladins who specialize in defense and healing, violent female swordsmen who can do nothing but magic swordsman, and the magical poet who can make do with everything.

In Qiao An's view, unless encountering a powerful enemy of the legendary level, the investigation team led by Mr. Pinkerton, at least self-protection is not a problem.

However, not long after, his optimistic expectations were shaken by a series of bizarre events.

On the morning of August 2, Qiao An received the first letter sent by the investigation team, and the writer was Hailar.

At the time of writing this letter, Hailar and his party had arrived on the east bank of the Vimur River, and were investigating the mysterious green field that engulfed Grizzly Town.

"Last spring, we visited Grizzly Town. I still remember that the area where the market town is located is located on the riverside plain. The nearby forests have been cut down by local residents and they were dragged back to the town to build wooden houses. However, they returned after a year. We can hardly recognize this place here."

In the letter, Hailar described to Qiao An the confusion and surprise when he revisited his old place.

"The riverside wilderness where only sparse grasses grew, is now covered by dense jungles. Big trees over a hundred feet high can be seen everywhere. Between the tall trees are vines and thorn bushes, like a natural fence, which will all try Outsiders who entered this green sea were blocked out and issued a silent warning."

"We rode around the outskirts of the green field and wanted to find a local as a guide. Unfortunately, the residents of the nearby colonial settlement were all scared by the change that happened in Grizzly Town, and fled back to the east as early as a week ago."

"The camps abandoned by the colonists are now occupied by the Asa people. Although we have repeatedly shown goodwill, we cannot change the cold attitude of these indigenous people. They don't trust white people, even friends who have fought alongside them."

"Later, the little hooligans played a little trick, relying on cheeky and rhetoric to get close to an Asa elder sister, and finally figured out the real reason why the aborigines refused to be us guides."

"It turns out that the local Asa people have received a ban from Shizhu Town. They are not allowed to go within 7 miles of Grizzly Bear Town. Those who violate the ban will be cursed and become an ignorant plant or mushroom."

"If this is true, we have to worry that the residents of Grizzly Town, and those investigators who entered the Green Sea before, may have been cursed and become a plant in the jungle, like a drop of water that merges into the sea, without a trace. Searching."

"The curse in the Green Sea is indeed terrible, but everyone does not want to give up the adventure because of this. Besides, Audrey and the little gangster can cast spells to remove the curse. My Uncle and Piketon have also prepared enough curse-relieving potions, even if they are hit Don't be afraid of curses."

"The four of us unanimously decided to continue to Grizzly Town. Due to the lack of guides to lead the way, we had to treat the next itinerary carefully."

"Standing on the ground, we can't see Grizzly Town engulfed by the jungle. It is necessary to cast a spell to fly high and overlook the green fields below our feet. During the time when the light is strongest at noon, our sight can barely penetrate the layers of green. Under the shade, I saw a spire-like building covered with vines, and it is conceivable that it is the landmark building in Grizzly Town-the church bell tower."

"We all remember that the church is located in the very center of the town, and the green fields spread out from here to the surroundings, in a circular distribution. After a rough calculation, the radius is about 7 miles, which coincides with the restricted area mentioned by the Asa woman. "

"Mr. Pinkerton believes that such a regular round green field must be the product of some kind of magic or supernatural power. However, we can't think of any spell with such a powerful power, and it will be so overnight. The vast area is transformed into a primitive jungle, and at the same time it can impose a curse on thousands of local residents and more livestock, and finally turn all humans and animals into fungi and plants without thinking. The more you think about this, the more people feel. terror!"

Hailar's letter ended here, Qiao An fell into deep thought after reading.

The magic that makes plants grow rapidly usually belongs to the category of "natural magic", the most typical of which is the 3-ring "plant growth".

However, the area of ​​influence of "Plant Growth" is only 100 feet in radius. Even if this spell is upgraded to 9th level, it is not enough to cover the vast wilderness within a radius of 7.

As for turning living humans and animals into plants, "plant growth" has no such magical power.

Qiao An remembers that when "Mother of the Demon Wolf" Angel Poda attacked the Temple of Styx last winter, he used a natural magic called the "Higher Arboreal Curse" to turn the female knight Hilde into Tree people under her control.

Later, he inquired about Conti, and learned that the 8-level "Higher Arboreal Curse" also had a lower-level version of the 4-level "Arbor Curse", which could permanently turn the subject into a plant.

Regardless of the "treeing curse" or the "higher treeing curse", the target of the spell is only one creature, and it is impossible to turn the entire town of humans and animals into plants.

The mysterious realm that enveloped Grizzly Town has both the characteristics of "plant growth" and "treeing curse", and the scope of its influence is so wide that it may be a legendary magic or supernatural power.

At this point, Qiao An couldn't help but worry about the situation of Hailar and others, hesitating to write back to persuade them to give up exploring Grizzly Town.

At this moment, a wave of magic power surged in front of him, and a ball of red light emerged out of thin air.

Qiao An held the ball of light, and then realized that the sender of this time had been replaced by Audrey, and the content of the letter was more disturbing to him than the letter from Hailar just now.

"We used a spell to investigate in the air, and after we determined the location of Grizzly Town, we targeted the church bell tower covered with vines. We planned to land near the bell tower and then carefully search the entire town."

"The four of us lowered the flying height. As soon as we approached the spire of the bell tower, we alarmed a large group of monsters perching on the top of the tower and the surrounding tree canopy. They fluttered into the sky and attacked us like a group of crazy birds of prey! "
