Chapter 34: Spirits
Just now, when Mei Lin was facing the Red Wind Falcon, a warm current suddenly gushed out from her lower abdomen, and Mei Lin seemed to hear a sound similar to the bursting of bubbles in her body...... Vindictive!
She has finally broken through the bottleneck and become a low-rank knight, which means that not only can she attach her fighting energy to her weapons, but her physical fitness has also been greatly improved.
After taking a closer look at the benefits of the breakthrough, Merlin looked down for what she had just stepped on.
'Sizzle~'
She gasped and took a few steps backโat her feet, there was a broken shinbone, and dozens of scavenging beetles the size of broad beans were devouring the dried muscles, not caring about her presence in the slightest.
On closer inspection, it was a corpse that had been half covered by weeds, almost all that remained of bones, and judging by the torn robes and withered grass hair, it was a witch before her death.
"Huh?"
Merlin stooped down and picked up a purple leather pouch slightly larger than a palm from the skeleton - the storage bag. It's not that this thing is stronger than the corpse, but that there is a faint layer of spatial energy lingering on it, and those little insects don't dare to approach, so they didn't destroy it, but it's hard to say after a long time.
"Could it be that my talent is to make a fortune from the dead?" Merlin muttered, and her mental strength began to check the storage bag.
As the saying goes, if you don't die, you will have a blessing, you have two disasters, and you have had two adventures, but it is quite appropriate, since there is a storage bag on the body, the net worth must be quite gratifying.
The contents of the storage bag really did not disappoint Mei Lin, the space of this storage bag was much larger than the one she got first, and it contained at least tens of thousands of magic stones, thousands of bottles of high-level and intermediate-grade potions, and some golden tickets that could only be used by the world, but the strange thing was that most of these potions were used to assist cultivation or recovery, and there were no attack or defense potions. In addition, there is a set of experimental equipment for senior pharmacists and some very rare solitary materials and some sheepskin scrolls, and the rest is some miscellaneous goods and food, but there are no special locusts.
Merlene's heart swelled with a strong sense of alarm...... Just as her mental power entered the storage bag, there seemed to be a pair of eyes watching her, so she immediately had to throw away the storage bag in her hand.
"Hehe......"
A cold laugh suddenly sounded, in this relatively quiet jungle, obviously very abrupt and very poignant, with a whirlwind blowing suddenly, and a woman's face gradually appeared in the whirlwind.
"Spirit, who are you?" Merlin's face turned pale, but she didn't know what to do.
Oh, my God!
Don't bring such a playful person!
He was just a mere second-level apprentice, how could he resist the attack of the spirits?
Generally speaking, the spirit body is the external manifestation of the soul, and the formation of the spirit body has specific conditions or circumstances. Most spirits are formed from the souls of ordinary people, and wizards usually rarely leave spirits, because dark wizards like to play with spirits the most, and once they fall into their hands, life is better than death, except for those who are unwilling to die and want to be reborn.
Like the one in front of her, she hides the spirit in the storage bag, and once someone touches the storage bag, it will revive it, providing a chance for her to take it.
"Who am I?"
The spirit seemed to be confused for a moment: "Hundred Grass Hut, yes, I am the chief elder of the Hundred Grass Hut!"
"Tsk, little girl, your qualifications are good, and you will be done...... Where to run?!"
The spirit was still judging it, but he saw Merlin quickly apply a blast spell to herself, and she ran away...... Just kidding! She wasn't interested in playing a game of Decameron with such a monster.
However, Merlin's speed was obviously not enough in front of the spirit, and in the blink of an eye, the spirit caught up with Merlin and pounced on her body: "Don't struggle...... Ah~"
The last scream of terror rang out in Merlin's sea of consciousness.
Mei Lin only felt that her body was suddenly stiffened, and she fell to the ground like a piece of wood, and slid down the turf for four or five meters before stopping, she only felt that her head was swollen and painful, as if something had been forced into it, and the pain made her want to scream, want to roll, but she couldn't scream, and couldn't move, as if this body was no longer under her control.
At this time, the spirit body that claimed to be the chief elder of the Hundred Grass Cottage was in great danger...... She was very satisfied with the body of this second-level apprentice, and when she broke into the other party's sea of knowledge with great interest, and wanted to have a dove occupy the magpie's nest, she found that there was a strange nebula inside.
The spirit instinctively sensed that it was a great threat, but before it could decide on its next move, the nebula spun rapidly, like a huge whirlpool, and the strong suction force made her unable to help herself, and she flew into the nebula involuntarily.
The most terrifying thing is that just as the spirit was trying to figure out where she was, she was horrified to find that her power was losing due to the rotation of the nebula, and if it continued, she was afraid that she would eventually disappear completely, so she screamed loudly and begged Merlin to spare her life.
Of course, Merlin could feel what was happening in her own sea, and she also found that the spirit was trapped by the nebula, and after observing it for a while, she found that as the nebula rotated, the spirit that tried to take away herself began to weaken, and even the cries for help became weak.
"Stop. โ
Merlin had learned how to control the nebula and the stars inside, and the nebula had indeed stopped spinning, and the spirit had been pardoned, but unfortunately she had no body now, and she couldn't see the sweat raining down, but the fear and happiness in her expression were the same.
"Why should I let you go?" Merlin didn't ask nonsense about the other person's true identity or why he wanted to harm herself.
The principle of wizards is exchange, and if the spirit wants to exchange its own life, then it must show her value, otherwise Merlin will not mind transforming her into pure energy...... She had already noticed that in just a few moments, there were four or five more shining stars in the nebula.
"I ...... I am the chief elder of the Hundred Herbs Hut, and I have a lot of experience in potions, as well as ...... I know how a second-level apprentice can advance to a third-level apprentice and a full-fledged wizard without going astray. โ
It seems that this is still a bit of an appeal...... Merlin thought that she didn't have a teacher to guide her yet, and this spirit was an official wizard of the Hundred Grass Cottage before her death, and she could indeed give her some guidance in this regard.
"Why are you being hunted down?" Merlin asked, changing the subject.
The spirit body was suffocated, but she didn't expect Mei Lin's mind to jump so much.
