The Witcher: Son of the Planes

Chapter 69: Charles the Wyvern

Charles, the wyvern, has been in the wetland swamp for more than a year. With plenty of food and no powerful natural enemies, this place is simply a paradise for him, and he has been living a very comfortable life recently.

Although he fell in the Emerald Territory and was seriously injured, he was always worried that he would be surrounded and attacked. He trembled and slightly turned his serious injuries into minor injuries, and then flew away from the Emerald Island in a hurry.

But what he didn't expect was that the necromancer Pugna had already died in the siege of the Emerald Territory Guard, and no one came to harass him afterwards.

Charles, who flew away from the Emerald Island, came to a deserted island in the former Azure Empire and spent a leisurely time. However, as the Victoria's Secret World was integrated into the wizard world as a whole, Charles also gloriously became a local magic beast.

A year ago, Charles, who wanted to walk around, came to the wetland swamp and found that this was his home, so he simply lived here.

There are no suitable caves here, but there are also many bushes. Charles's residence this time is on a larger tree, and he chose a thick branch to build his new home.

Charles, who had eaten and drunk a lot early, was ready to rest. Suddenly, the air seemed to smell his own blood.

"Well, my seed? Could it be that a female dragon gave birth to my offspring?" Charles was no longer sleepy when he thought of this, and was ready to look for it in the direction of his feeling.

...

"Colin, what's wrong with you?" Helen asked.

"I don't know, it feels like there is a familiar creature approaching." Colin replied.

The other four people did not notice Colin's abnormality, but the location they were in was much deeper than the previous few days.

Everyone was ready to cast spells at any time, and there was no sign of slacking off.

...

Without any signs, a magical beast entered the vision of Colin and the other six people. Everyone recognized it, a two-legged dragon.

The other five people who were ready to fight at any time had already begun to prepare to release spells. Although Colin was a little confused about why this two-legged dragon gave him a closer feeling, now was not the time to think about these things.

The prepared fireball was released casually, but it missed, just brushing the edge of Charles' wings.

Seeing Colin, Charles understood immediately that the little guy on the opposite side should have drunk his blood.

Colin reminded Charles of the unbearable past in the Emerald Territory. Under the bullying of the necromancer Pugna, Charles shed a lot of humiliating blood. For some unknown reason, this kid got it.

My uncle Charles is noble. If he leaks a little, it will be enough for the little guy on the opposite side to be promoted. However, as many as 6 intermediate wizard apprentices also made Charles alert.

The crushing of the advanced against the intermediate is when they are both monsters. The effect may be amplified a lot. If they are cross-race, the effect is not obvious, and it is possible to overturn if you are not careful.

After Colin's fireball brushed Charles' wings, Charles was also a little angry.

Damn, drinking the blood of the uncle, now attacking the uncle in turn? There are still such people who repay kindness with enmity in the wizard world?

Charles coughed and sprayed a mouthful of venom.

"Get out of the way, it's poisonous." Helen shouted.

Everyone is not stupid. Seeing a mouthful of venom coming, they quickly dodged.

"What a pity, I can't spit out much." Charles thought with some regret when he saw the venom spit on the ground, still corroding the ground with a "sizzle".

Charles no longer fought with Colin and others with magic, but directly engaged in hand-to-hand combat. Although he was not as tough as other sub-dragon beasts as a high-level magic beast, since he had the word "dragon", it was not given for nothing.

His claws and teeth were also very good attacking weapons. Charles, who had good hand-to-hand combat ability, rushed in, and Colin and others also had a long time to parry.

Marcus released the ground spike spell, which had some effect on Charles, but it was not very useful.

After Connie tried the spell attack, she felt that it was not as effective as archery. However, in Charles' opinion, arrows of this strength were far less damaging than the bone spear of the original necromancer Pugna.

Facing Charles, a high-level magic beast, Colin and the other six were still struggling. The hand-to-hand combat ability of the intermediate knight attendant could not withstand the power impact of the high-level magic beast. Fortunately, Conrad and Banta also had the physical strength of the intermediate knight attendants.

In addition, Marcus, Helen and Connie continued to attack, so they did not lose.

"Is this back to the scene of fighting the BOSS again?" Charles, who had been unable to attack for a long time, thought of the battle with the necromancer Pugna.

There were also physical warriors in the front row, and spells were always output to him in the back. The only difference was that the attack strength of Colin and his six people was not as high as Pugna.

After a hard fight, Charles didn't want to fight Colin and his men anymore.

Forget it, I'm too lazy to toss with these reptiles. I'm afraid of you.

Turning around, Charles flew high.

"Humph, I won't play with you anymore. Can't I leave?"

Since he couldn't take down Colin and his men in a short time, Charles had to retreat first. After all, there were other high-level monsters in the wetland swamp, so he didn't want to be picked up.

Seeing Charles flying high, Colin and his men were also a little helpless. There was no way he couldn't fly, so it was hard to chase him.

Charles took a last look at Colin and quickly left the battlefield and flew away.

Colin and the others did not waste their spells because they knew they could not cause any fatal damage. What if they encountered some other monsters? Would they still be able to play?

Seeing that Charles had indeed flown away, the group felt that they could not go any further. With the strength of the six of them, they were not strong enough to run rampant in the wetland swamp. They would be very passive when encountering a high-level magic beast, especially one that could fly. Fighting for a long time would be a waste of effort.

After a rest, the group prepared to return to the outside of the swamp. It had been more than ten days since they came out, and they had gained a lot.

The return journey was much faster. They encountered a group of harpies again. They were simply bullying. They killed 8 harpies casually. Even though these harpies could fly, none of them escaped.

The real danger in the wetland swamp came from the road that was about to leave the swamp. Unexpectedly, they encountered a barbarian bull at the edge of the swamp.

This creature, not to mention its high-level magic beast strength, has a unique spell - death gaze. This is not petrification, but direct death. Although the probability is very low, as long as you encounter that small probability, you are directly OVER. Without anti-lethal equipment, no one wants to try this.

After staring at the bull from a distance for a few minutes, perhaps the bull didn't want to bother Colin and the others. After the bull left, Colin and the others quickly passed that section of the road.

"Huh, we finally got out." Connie patted her chest and said.

Colin glanced at Connie, "Yeah, it's really white."

"Thick skin, really thick skin, this guy is much more difficult to deal with than the last wyvern." Marcus also said with lingering fear.

Colin and Helen looked at each other. This journey to test their strength was over. They gained a lot and recognized their own strength. They needed to work harder after returning.
