Mythical Card Master: Start with the Knight

Noon the next day.

It was the time when the sun was at its strongest, but the dark forest was still dark under the cover of black mist, with only a little light able to penetrate.

Under the wizard tower, Chu Ming had already put on the fat gray cloak. Edel was wearing bright silver armor and followed him. Allen did not follow him.

The dark forest is still too dangerous. If something happens, Chu Ming will not care about him at all and can only let him stay alone in the wizard tower.

Looking at the black fog surrounding him, Edel looked solemnly, "Narende, have you decided where to go?"

"Just follow me."

Chu Ming put on his hood and walked into the darkness, and Edel gritted his teeth and followed.

Not long after the two left, Marin and Miguel appeared at the place wearing black robes.

"Narende, you are so brave."

Marin's face was cold and his tone was solemn.

"Miguel, let's go."

Miguel blushed instantly when he thought of Dipper's indifference towards him, "I want him to die."

Marin glanced at him, said nothing, and walked into the darkness in the direction of Chu and Ming.

…

In the dark forest.

Chu Ming's eyes were alert, always alert to the surrounding environment.

Before setting off today, he had already triggered the knitting luck in the history books, and now he is a good luck protector.

But this does not mean that he can seek death. In the final analysis, good luck can only make it easier for him to face certain difficult situations, and it is not a life-saving talisman.

Following the guidance of the history books, Chu Ming gradually went deep into the forest, and some wild datura trees appeared around him.

The steps to collect Datura trees are very troublesome. Generally, when apprentices collect Datura trees, they use raw meat to lure wild animals to eat the roots of the Datura trees, and then wait for the screams of the Datura trees to stop before picking them. It is a one-time operation Only one plant can be collected.

And it would be bad if the scream of the mandala tree provoked Marin and the others in advance.

So although Chu Ming looked very greedy, he could only give up.

The two of them were walking in the forest, with dead branches and leaves under their feet. The deeper they went, the clearer the howls in the forest became. Chu Ming did not dare to be careless and tensed up his nerves.

Before he could take a few steps, someone seemed to have stepped on the mandala tree behind him. Suddenly, a shrill scream sounded from behind them. Chu Ming's energy flashed and he quickly recovered.

Edel's face was solemn, "Sure enough, someone is following."

"Don't worry about them yet, we haven't reached our destination yet."

Chu Ming shook his head, ignored it, and continued to move forward against the black tree.

Edel swallowed slightly and wiped the sweat from his forehead due to nervousness.

"Narende, is the mandala tree king you mentioned really here?"

Chu Ming was about to answer when suddenly there was some movement nearby.

"Shhh."

Chu Ming wrapped the two of them together in a cloak. In Edel's surprised eyes, the magic patterns inside the cloak lit up like thunder and spread out. His eyes were suddenly able to see beyond the obstruction of the thick cloak and see outside.

The cloak under the black tree wrapped the two of them, blending into the lines on the black tree.

After a while, the sound of leaves being rubbed got closer and closer. A giant black snake with sarcoma on its body crawled through the black tree while spitting out snake letters. It ignored Chu Ming and the two of them and crawled away.

After the giant snake left, Edel wiped the cold sweat from his head and gasped for air.

"Narende, let's go quickly."

"Oh well."

Chu Ming, who was still staring at the tumors on the giant snake, woke up, picked up his cloak, and continued walking inside.

With the help of the cloak, the two went very smoothly and encountered few obstacles.

But the two of them were different. Miguel just stepped on the mandala tree and was attacked by a scream.

If Marin hadn't taken action in time, Miguel's life might have been saved.

Then they encountered the giant snake that Chu and Ming had just encountered. After warning the giant snake, Marin and Marin were able to move forward.

Looking at the silent and dark layers of black trees around him, Miguel was shocked and said hesitantly to Marin: "They have already gone so deep. They are both dead. Otherwise, we should go back."

Marin glanced at him and said, "Then go back now."

"Myself?!"

Miguel pointed at himself, looking a little confused.

Marin looked indifferent and continued to move forward, regardless of whether Miguel could follow him or not.

"hateful……"

Miguel clenched his fists and looked at the darkness that was about to engulf him. Fear arose in his heart, but he still followed.

…

After marching in the darkness for half an hour, Chu and Ming seemed to be very lucky. They only encountered a giant snake along the way, and no other dark creatures were seen.

The dark forest was not as dangerous as Edel had imagined, and he relaxed a little.

However, Chu Ming still did not dare to let down his guard, because they were about to arrive near the Mandala Tree King.

Chu Ming looked behind Edel and reminded: "Be careful, we are almost there."

Edel's heart skipped a beat, and his brows knitted together again.

He looked forward and suddenly found that the black trees around him became sparser and sparse, and many huge black roots appeared in front of him.

"This is……"

"This should be the root of the Mandala Tree King."

Chu Ming looked up and looked ahead. A huge mandala tree stood in the forest clearing. The erect roots at its feet were almost as tall as a person.

The deformed tree tumors on its body swelled like flesh and blood, making it look even weirder.

"Are you... kidding, Narender, are you serious about dealing with this guy?"

Edel looked at Chu Ming, his eyes full of disbelief.

"Of course not us." Chu Ming pulled Edel and hid behind a dark tree in the distance. "Our protagonist hasn't appeared yet."

Pulling up their cloaks, Chu Ming and the two hid under the black tree.

"You may not think that this Mandala Tree King looks scary, but in fact it is even more powerful than you."

"Yeah?"

Edel looked at the mighty tree body of the Mandala Tree King with doubt on his face.

In fact, the current quality of this Mandala Tree King is only green, which is really only one level higher than Edel.

Marin should be around the dark green level, but this mandala tree king is not easy to mess with. He should feel better later.

The two of them squatted under the tree and waited for a while. Marin and his wife walked out of the forest in a somewhat embarrassed manner.

The surrounding black trees suddenly disappeared. Miguel was stunned for a moment and walked forward slowly, not paying attention to the rock-like roots in front of him.

"Do you want to die?!"

Marin pulled him back and scolded him coldly.

"Marin, you..."

"etc!"

Before Miguel could speak, Marin seemed to realize something, his expression changed, and he wanted to leave the place.

Suddenly a cold color flashed across, and a dagger was inserted diagonally into the knot at the root of the Mandala Tree King.

"It's a trap!"

Marin shouted in surprise and pulled the dazed Miguel back.

But unfortunately, his reaction was too late.

The tree tumors exploded, and a pungent smell filled the air. The branches and branches on the mandala tree king twitched wildly, and screamed loudly.

"ah!!!"

Marin's expression changed, and his head suddenly hurt as if it was about to explode.

He knew that if he didn't get rid of the mandala tree in front of him, he would definitely not be able to escape.

He covered his head and threw away Miguel, who was rolling his eyes and drooling. Then, the flesh and blood on his body actually separated in strips.

Except for his head, his whole body turned into a wriggling ball of tree roots and rushed towards the Mandala Tree King.

Edel, who was hiding behind the black tree and covering his ears while watching the battle, almost stared out of his eyes when he saw this scene.

"This...is this witchcraft?!"

“Isn’t witchcraft supposed to be about raising the staff gracefully and then unleashing the witchcraft?”

Chu Ming also had a look of surprise on his face. The wizard system developed by the Fengyang Empire was indeed somewhat different from that of other eras.

While the two of them were still marveling, Marin avoided the twitching of the tree roots and had climbed onto the Mandala Tree King.

All the bloody branches on his body were seen piercing into the body of the Mandala Tree King, and the tree sap splashed everywhere. Amidst the miserable screams, a big hole was opened in the roots of the Mandala Tree King.

Blood surged on the black branches, and something seemed to be extracted from the body of the Mandala Tree King. The tree king became weaker and weaker, and the branches and roots gradually stopped waving.

However, Marin's condition was not much better. His face was ferocious and blood was flowing from his ears.

After the death of the Tree King, he could no longer maintain his witchcraft, and the branches converged back into his body.

However, he knew that Chu and Ming were lying in ambush nearby, and he did not dare to stay. He dragged his injured body and ran directly into the darkness.
