Located in the southern part of the Kingdom of Sweivland, the Emerald Forest is close to the coastline and looks down from the sky like a green emerald inlaid in Swevland's crown.

In the Emerald Forest, there is only what you can't see, and there is nothing you can't imagine...... Giant trees tens or hundreds of meters high abounded, and vines with the thickness of arms and huge beasts filled the entire Emerald Forest.

The dense canopy of trees blocks most of the sunlight, and walking in the forest is like walking in the dark. The thick layer under your feet is full of accumulated rotting leaves, and when you step on it, you can't tell where it is solid ground and where it is a dangerous swamp, and if you are not careful, you will fall into it, and you can suddenly get out of the dirt, trees, rotten leaves and shrubs at any time and everywhere, dangerous and disgusting creatures such as snakes and spiders can suddenly emerge from the dirt, trees, rotting leaves and shrubs.

Moreover, all kinds of rotten auras are often mixed into colorful and poisonous mist of different colors, which even wizards dare not easily touch.

But it was in such a harsh environment that the two figures walked in the forest like on the street and the road.

Merlin dusted off the dust that didn't exist on her body and looked at a thin guide next to her: "Salvador, when will you be able to get to the place where the Poseman wizard is hiding?" ”

The guide, Salvador, is an ordinary-looking brown-haired ordinary person, who usually wanders around the adventurer's camp to buy materials and other goods, and then sells them to wizards who disdain to enter the Emerald Forest to explore, because he represents the interests of many people, so no one dares to provoke him at will in the adventurer's camp where there are many strong people and many fierce and crazy people. However, few people know that he is a son of the Joyat family.

As compensation, in addition to being partially offset with various materials and magic stones, the whereabouts of Poseman and Ienno are also part of the compensation. However, these two men are not in the territory of the Joyat family, but in one of the Joyat's mines in the Emerald Forest.

So, Merlin travels to an adventurer's camp outside the Emerald Forest and finds Salvador. After revealing the crest of the Joyat family, there was no surprise to get a response from him.

Salvador, who was dressed in a black samurai suit, walked briskly, and the whole person looked like a cheetah with restrained strength and ready to attack, after hearing Merlin's question, he did not look back, continued to look around vigilantly, and replied in a flat tone: "At least more than half a month." Wizard, you should know that it is best not to fly without legendary level strength in the Emerald Forest, and it is easy to react and crash into some terrifying creatures if you go too fast. ”

Merlin bowed her head slightly, agreeing with this, the high sky of the Emerald Forest is said to be full of spatial cracks, some connected to different dimensions, and even some connected to different planes. Many powerful creatures like to divide their territory, and if they are not strong enough to fly over their territory, they are very vulnerable to attack, the most typical example is the wurms, not to mention many flying creatures hovering in mid-air, such as thunder eagles, griffins, scavenging vultures, etc.

Stepping into the pile of soft rotting leaves, a palm-sized flower scorpion suddenly sprang up, and its tail hook stabbed hard into Merlin's leg.

With a crisp snap, the scorpion's tail hook almost snapped as if it had been stabbed into a stone, and its body smacked slightly, and it jerked and fled, hiding in the rotting branches and leaves.

From the moment she entered the Emerald Forest, Merlin had carefully superimposed two defensive spells, 'Stone Skin Technique' and 'Protective Arrow', for herself, and there was no room for carelessness here.

"Didn't even sense it beforehand?" Merlin seemed to be talking to herself, as if she was asking Salvador, and with her third-level wizard's spiritual power, she couldn't find a poisonous scorpion at her feet. Even if the rotten aura that permeated the surroundings was very suppressive of the spiritual force field, it should not be suppressed to this extent.

Salvatore frowned slightly, "My intuition also seems to be suppressed, could it be that there are any high-level creatures nearby?"

The path he took with Merlin was a gap between the territories of many creatures, and the possibility that the balance could suddenly be upset could not be ruled out. And Merlin didn't release her pets because she was worried about alarming the creatures.

Discerning the environment, Salvatore deviated slightly from the original direction, and then continued to move forward, anyway, there was no real road in the Emerald Forest. As long as the general direction is good, it's fine.

After walking for about ten meters, Merlin suddenly heard the sound of branches and leaves shaking violently...... She suddenly looked up, and a huge spider suddenly fell from the sky, its back was colorful, like a smiling human face, and eight pillar-like arthropod cornices moved from branch to branch, and suddenly swooped down on the two of them, and at the same time a puff of white spider silk spewed out, like a large web, covering Merlin and Salvador.

Merlin's wrist flashed, and a red fireball appeared out of thin air, hitting the spider's web. A violent explosion occurred, and the rising flames quickly ignited the spider silk and spread rapidly, quickly turning the spider web into a web of fire.

The biggest weakness of spider silk is the fear of fire!

As a wizard, if you don't know even the most basic knowledge of monsters, you can't be called qualified!

The giant spider doesn't seem to care about the webs being burned, and as soon as it lands, it moves with agility and speed, comparable to that of a swift wolf.

At this moment, countless human-faced giant spiders appeared in all directions, and they sprayed spider silk while approaching the two, forming a huge encirclement around the two.

The human-faced spider is a spider unique to the Emerald Forest, a monster that can change into a human-headed spider body, with third-level strength as an adult, fast speed, high agility, good at using supernatural powers such as illusion, likes group activities, collective hunting, and can often deal with enemies much stronger than themselves.

Knowledge about this creature crossed her mind, and immediately after, Merlin inspired the third-level talent witchcraft 'Panic Boiling', and invisible spiritual fluctuations spread around.

When this mental fluctuation came into contact with Salvador, a talisman on his chest glowed milky white, canceling out the "Crowd Panic Technique". Most of the human-faced spiders were frightened and scurried around, and a few successfully resisted and attacked Merlin from all directions.

Some of them rippled with quiet silver ripples on their bodies, flowing as if to soothe a person's sleep, some continued to spew cobwebs in an attempt to trap the two of them, and some pounced, preparing to engage in hand-to-hand combat after successfully trapping them, defeating their opponents by biting, infusing venom and grappling, wrapping them into spider cocoons as reserve food.
