Moon Witch, embark on the journey!

A middle-aged apprentice looked a little nervous. He wandered around the room for a long time with a gloomy look on his face, and finally sighed, sat down at the table and began to write:

"Claire returned to Spring Breeze Valley today, this time bringing with her a high-ranking female apprentice who she said was a friend..."

"According to the instructions and instructions given to the servants before, I predict that she will most likely go to the White Snake Cave and stay there for a while."

'This may be a suitable opportunity, please consider it carefully.'

He folded the paper and whistled softly again.

A snow eagle flew in from outside the door, flapping its wings and landing in front of the window. Not long after, the snow eagle with the letter in its claws flew out of the valley, flapping its white wings, as if blending into the world of ice and snow.

The stronghold of the wizard family must have a warning magic array. So sometimes, some ordinary methods of mortals are more useful.

......

"I have asked my subordinates to get ready. Let's set off soon."

Claire smiled slightly, and said with some emotion:

"Although you said before that it would take about half a year, it's still amazing to see it in person."

"sorry to bother you."

"It's just a small matter, and I'll need your help when we get there."

Soon, the two of them left the house in the valley with two large backpacks and stepped into the world of ice and snow again.

After walking for a long distance, Claire stopped in front of an unremarkable iceberg and took a deep breath.

She stretched out her white finger and cut it slightly with a knife, and a drop of blood seeped out.

"Only family blood can open this place, you have to follow me closely."

The breath of magic emanated, and the frost-covered cliff in front of them suddenly cracked open, revealing a dark path leading to the interior.

Luna could feel the power implicitly revealed by this magic formation.

"Second-level wizard formation?"

"Yes, there hasn't been an advanced wizard in the family for a long time, and even maintenance is a bit difficult. This was arranged when our family was at its peak."

Claire stepped into the passage, with Luna following her.

"This is where our family raises white frost snakes, from apprentice level to first-level magical beasts. You have to be careful."

"It's good to have a big family. There's even a place like this."

Luna needs to feel the pressure of a formal wizard, and there are some first-level monsters here. With Claire watching, she can fight with the first-level beings in a safe manner.

In the past, most wizards in the family advanced in a similar way.

It was just that Claire happened to catch up with the invasion of the vampires, and because of the organization's mission, she couldn't return to the secret realm. So she simply set her sights on the vampire baron.

"Generally, the official wizards of the family have to come here twice a year to be fed. It just so happens that I will bring you here this time."

126. Loss of Control

The White Snake Cave is built in the belly of an entire iceberg and has a very large size.

It is not just a hollow cavity, but a small world full of rich resources.

In the cold and deep caves, you can see many glowing minerals and unknown fungi growing in the corners along the way. These are also valuable resources, but the Helit family does not mine them.

"Generally speaking, the white frost snakes raised by the family can be self-sufficient in the cave. However, we still replenish the feed regularly. These are secret medicines with special ingredients, which can promote the mutation and advancement of the white frost snakes."

Claire took off the backpack behind her, which was full of something that smelled like minced meat.

"Although I brought you here to fight, I must not forget to feed you."

She led Luna forward. There were many forks in the road inside the mountain. The temperature here was cold and the visibility was poor. It would be uncomfortable for ordinary people to stay there for a while.

They came to the end of the road, but there was only a cold stone wall in front of them. Claire muttered softly:

"There should be one here. Wait for me to open the ban."

She whispered a spell, and the stone wall slowly lifted up, revealing a cave behind it.

"There should be a first-level white frost snake in nest number 17."

The view suddenly became wider, estimated to be the size of several football fields. The crystal minerals embedded in the rocks emitted a faint light. There were strange plants growing in the dark environment on the ground, and occasionally there were slight noises.

hiss--

Luna immediately heard a sound somewhere and she squinted her eyes to look.

In the far corner of the cave, a huge white-scaled snake was moving slowly. It moved forward for a while, and suddenly made a sudden sprint and swallowed a lizard curled up on the rock in front of it in one gulp.

"A first-level white frost snake, this is the type that has just advanced. It is only five meters long, and when it reaches its peak, it can usually be nearly ten meters long. Do you want to give it a try?"

"Of course!"

Seeing the big guy in the distant corner, Luna was already eager to try.

She also took off her backpack, took out a small ball of feed, rolled it into a ball, and threw it over - it rolled into the center of the cave.

The giant snake curled up in the corner suddenly became active and pounced on the food. Although it was much smaller than it, it was as if it had eaten a feast. The white snake was visibly excited.

The first-level monster in an excited state also exuded a powerful aura, which was completely different from the leisurely feeling just now.

Luna came to the vicinity of the white snake alone, and then she realized its power. The taut snake scales looked quite tough, the teeth in the mouth were sharp, and the whole body exuded an icy aura.

"I don't know if you understand me, but if you beat me, I'll have more food to eat, okay?"

Compared with other first-level monsters, this white frost snake is non-venomous and not particularly large in size, but it knows some innate spells.

A spell that reaches the first level.

call--

As Luna approached, the white snake felt a little uncomfortable and opened its mouth to release a huge ball of icy mist, which rushed straight towards the girl who was extremely slender and petite in comparison.

Luna had already used the acceleration spell and dodged quickly, but was still slightly touched by the white mist. Her body was immediately frozen by a layer of white frost, and she became somewhat stiff.

When she looked back at the place where she was before, she saw that the area within dozens of meters was covered with large areas of ice and frost.

"It's freezing!"

A small fireball condensed in front of her, and the flames slightly increased the temperature nearby. Luna controlled the enhanced fire bomb technique and flew towards the white snake.

boom!

The firelight bloomed in the dim cave. The purified and amplified fire bullet was quite powerful, far exceeding ordinary magic tricks. But the white snake did not move at all, and only a little blackening and cracked scales appeared on its body.

Even so, the Frost Snake was somewhat angry, as if it had not expected that this low-level life form could cause it even a minor injury.

"Haha, try this again—"

Luna found that the fire bomb technique was not very effective in the low temperature environment, so she immediately switched to enhanced wind blade, creating several scratches on the white snake's body.

Roar--

The white snake became angry and rushed towards the girl, opening its bloody mouth towards her.

Luna turned and ran.

......

Ten minutes later, Luna rushed out of the cave entrance in a very embarrassed state, with frost all over her body. She hugged her arms and trembled, her face pale:

"It's so cold. It's so cold."

"See you still look down on a first-level magical beast, this one is just an advanced one."

"That means we can't use equipment and scrolls! But I was a little careless."

Without the first-level items and spells, and only using enhanced cantrips, it is indeed quite difficult to cause damage to first-level beings, especially magical beasts with generally stronger bodies.

Luna basically just scratched the opponent with a few minor wounds, and then was chased around the cave. After that, she could only run away without even having the chance to fight back.

"Not using alchemical items, is this a bit stressful?"

"That's true. The first level is still the first level after all."

To deal with this kind of magical beast that has just entered the first level, you should be able to use [Moon Punishment] when you have the chance, but that will not have the effect of training.

"Come, have a cup of hot tea."

Claire had already set up a set of ice tables and chairs at the entrance of the cave, and was sitting there leisurely drinking tea. She had just watched Luna being chased around by the white snake.

Holding the hot cup of tea in both hands, Luna did not forget to ask questions during the break:

"Your family raises so many magical beasts. Does it have anything to do with bloodline?"

Claire nodded slightly, with a complicated look on her face:

"As you know, our family originally had a second-level bloodline. But after years of development, the actual bloodline concentration has degenerated to the first level, and only occasionally will a member of the family with a second-level bloodline be born."

"According to our family's research, these first-level white frost snakes are most likely the descendants of the ancient ice pythons, a weakened branch bloodline."

"We hope to explore the secrets of blood by cultivating these creatures with similar blood. Maybe one day we can find a way to increase the concentration of blood."

"Over the years, the family has invested a lot and has also researched some secret techniques related to bloodline, but there has been no fundamental progress."

This girl, who is not even twenty years old, is already thinking about the future of her family.

"Nowadays, bloodlines with second-level atavism occasionally appear, and there are several formal wizards in each generation. What if a few hundred or thousand years pass? I'm afraid that there won't even be anyone in our family who can reach the level of a formal wizard."

"It seems like you guys are working hard too."

Looking at Claire who looked a little sad, Luna didn't know how to comfort her.

Boom boom boom.

Suddenly, there seemed to be a muffled sound above my head, and it seemed that something huge was churning in the depths of the cave.

Claire was a little surprised, and then her face changed. Her semi-materialized mental power swept towards the abnormality:

"The magic array failed, and a monster escaped?!"

127. Confrontation

"The monster escaped?"

When Luna heard her words, the corners of her mouth twitched. It was conservatively estimated that there were more than ten first-level monsters here. It would be best if only one or two of them got out of control. Otherwise, it would probably take an advanced wizard to pacify them.

After Claire roughly scanned it with her mental power, she said hurriedly:

"We have to leave immediately. As long as the witch formation outside the White Snake Cave is still there, these white frost snakes will not be able to get out even if they escape..."

Boom, boom, boom!

In the dim and cold cave, the shaking became more and more intense, and debris kept falling from the rock wall above their heads. Luna and Claire used the acceleration spell and kept fleeing towards the entrance.

But the narrow passage was full of twists and turns, and we had to turn before our speed increased much, which was much slower than expected.

boom!

A large piece of rock fell down, blocking the two men.

Claire's eyes flashed, and a huge ice spike suddenly rose from the ground, piercing through the entire huge rock. The gravel scattered and forced a passage open.

She was about to continue walking forward when she suddenly turned back:

"careful!"

hiss--

Luna also saw the huge figure approaching from behind. A giant white-scaled snake that was seven or eight meters long pounced from behind, but before she could cast a spell, an extremely thick wall of ice arrived behind her.

In the white frost mist, an ice wall several meters high completely blocked the passage behind. The ice wall was crystal clear, but extremely hard. The giant snake hit the wall with a dull sound, but only a few cracks appeared.

The white snake shook its head and seemed a little dizzy.

"Continue to go!"

Claire's strength after becoming a formal wizard is indeed quite impressive. A person with outstanding talent is no match for ordinary wizards after he becomes a formal wizard.

Luna was led by her all the way forward, but she didn't find any opportunity to take action.

Rumble, rumble!

A passage collapsed, and in an instant, countless tons of rocks fell down. But behind Claire, the shadow of a white snake emerged, and she burst out with a strong momentum.
