"You're saying that Merlin didn't die, he took the initiative to jump into Mount Doom...... Fallen on the first night?"

The last words that came out of Amanda's mouth were obviously not what Tang Qi expected.

He guessed Merlin's final end, nothing more than death or depravity, but he didn't expect that Merlin's way of falling would be so strange.

That's right, it's weird.

According to Amanda's description, Merlin is the most powerful wizard of their unpolluted creatures, proficient in transfiguration, prophecy, and he can even break through the Obscurantist Forest and the Dark Plains, knowing that powerful beings such as crazy fairies cannot even pass the level of living corpses.

This is enough to prove Merlin's strength from the side, although the rules of the world are different, but if you convert, Merlin is at least equivalent to a "legendary" wizard in the mysterious side.

Such a powerful being would choose to cut itself off and take the initiative to fall after there is no hope?

Almost immediately, some new conjectures rose in Tang Qi's mind, and there was no evidence, but his intuition had always been inexplicable and accurate.

Soon, though, he shook his head.

To suppress these thoughts for the time being, and to verify the conjecture, the prerequisite is to see Merlin first, even if it is "Merlin" after the Fall.

"The problem now is, how to get through the Dark Plains?"

If the opponent is an existence like an "ignorant living corpse", Tang Qi will choose to go all the way through.

But apparently, the monster called "Desire Manifestation" was different from all the weirdness he had encountered before.

But dodging is not the way.

Tang Qi didn't care about Merlin-related topics anymore, but looked at Amanda and asked seriously, "Tell me the information about all the monsters in the Dark Plains that you know, including that deer-eating deer." ”

Amanda, at this time, did have an extraordinary trust in Tang Qi.

Without any hesitation, he spoke straight and spit out all the "weird" information he knew, not as much as he imagined, some weird, Amanda even knew only one name.

Of course, at least Tang Qi had a certain understanding of the cold, dead plain.

The black embers, the scorching wind, and the dust finally fell silent again, and the burned "Forest of Obscurantism" was slowly returning to its original form.

The "foreign body" that appeared because of Tang Qi is being swallowed up by nothingness.

It's just that in his perception, although the forest is recovering, those living corpses have not appeared.

It seems that it will take him some time to restore the living body. ”

An irrelevant thought swept over him by the scenery in his eyes, and Tang Qi's attention quickly returned to the plain outside the forest.

Amanda, still in his arms.

The two glanced at each other, and Tang Qi said calmly, "Are you ready?"

There was a look of worry in the girl's eyes, but she was also very different from a girl who had not experienced many hardships in the real world, especially knowing when and what to do.

Amanda nodded, and then slowly closed her eyes under Tang Qi's gaze.

At this moment, a dead branch under Tang Qi's feet was trampled to pieces, and his figure jumped, flickering, and appeared again on the edge of the Obscurantist Forest.

The moment he landed, Tang Qi's eyes saw the magic of the furnace surge out.

Trial!

The scorching, majestic shadow of the sun appeared in his pupils.

For the first time, he used this skill not to attack, but to defend.

According to Merlin, as long as you don't officially step into the Dark Plains, but stand at the junction of the Obscurantist Forest and the Plains, even if you face the manifestation of strange desires, there is a certain chance that you will not be deceived...... Coupled with the trial, it may be enough for me to complete the initial detection. ”

"As for the risks taken, on the mysterious side, there is never a zero-risk event. ”

In the middle of his thoughts, in addition to the sun's projection, Tang Qi's eyes reflected a silent, gray, lifeless plain, filled with thin mist and indescribable light.

Not long ago, the "deer of food" that terrified Amanda disappeared.

Tang Qi was not surprised, there are a large number of "desire embodiments" in the plains, which do not always stay in one place, but wander around.

He talked to Amanda, and it took a long time for the deer to leave.

But at this time, Tang Qi showed no signs of withdrawing the "trial".

Instead, it continues to be maintained, waiting for the next "embodied body" to appear, and according to Merlin's information, it won't be too long.

The breath of any life is an irresistible temptation for the embodiment of desire.

As long as one is nearby, it will surely come.

According to the rules of the Dark Plains, one manifestation chooses its prey, and the rest of the manifestations will stop and wait.

Time began to pass little by little, just when Tang Qi clearly felt the depletion of the magic power in his body.

Suddenly, Tang Qi's eyes widened suddenly, and the light flame became more and more surging.

Ahead, it was still the dead old tree, a figure even more strange than the "Deer Eater", from the depths of the thin mist, stirring the light, flying in the direction of Tang Qi and Amanda.

Flying weird?

Tang Qi just had this thought in his mind.

In the next second, he saw the fog parting, and a creature that was shaped like a bat, but the details were strange and terrifying.

Its body is almost indistinguishable from that of a "human", with limbs, a skull, and a torso, except that the lower arms are connected to the lower ribs, and a layer of membranous wings spreads, and the gaps in the wings are broken, and the faintly formed a screaming and twisted human face.

Its thighs are bright red, without skin covering, and its teethless mouths are densely packed with "laughing" shapes.

On his chest, two lumps of rotten flesh bulged, spilling juice into the air for some reason.

Its head, also covered with a "mask", resembles a pompous, twisted, screaming clown.

When it breaks through the fog and descends on the dead tree.

Behind it, a wriggling "tail" covered with black hair was cocked, and at the tip, a layer of skin rolled up, and inside was a black and red eyeball.

A new "eye to eye" is about to happen.

But at this moment, Tang Qi suddenly smiled, his eyes closed suddenly, and his body jumped back, just like facing the "Deer of Food" before, returning to the forest of ignorance.

Landing, Amanda felt the movement and reopened her eyes.

"It's a smirking bat!"

Seeing the confusion in Amanda's eyes, Tang Qi immediately answered.

He had already learned from the girl's mouth about some of the "desire manifestations" that haunted the plains, and after a little comparison of the scene just now, he found out the name of the monster that was even stranger than the "deer of food".

In the catalog provided by Merlin, the smiling bat is indeed more terrifying than the deer that eats.

True, although there are countless "desires" wandering in the plains.

But these monsters are also divided into strong and weak, but they are not so strict compared to the mysterious side.

Merlin's distinction between them was based not only on his own perception, but also on the phenomena he observed as he passed through the plains, such as the smiling bats flying by, and the deer's head hanging down, which had always been held high.

Knowing this, Tang Qi soon had a simple and crude plan.

He didn't want to use Merlin's information to cross the plains, what he really wanted to rely on was the information fragments captured by his "special ability".

This means that he needs to look directly at the monster long enough.

One second, or two, or even longer.

And this time is also enough for the monsters to have a "look-in-sight" with Tang Qi, when he is capturing information fragments, and the monsters may have launched an attack directly.

Although Tang Qi does not think that these desires are embodied and can crush the "judgment" to solve themselves, it must be known that it needs to crush the projection of the Lord of the Furnace, although it is diluted by an unknown number of billions of times, but the thigh is the thigh.

However, in order not to overturn the car, Tang Qi still decided to pick up a soft persimmon and pinch it.

Using himself as bait, waiting for the most vulnerable desire to appear in the "Merlin Catalog".

Tang Qi continued to feed Amanda the secret medicine, and at the same time said calmly: "Wait for another half an hour!"

Half an hour later, Tang Qi was in another instant.

After about ten seconds at the junction, his eyes closed again, and he returned to the forest before making eye contact with the newly appeared "embodied body".

As soon as Amanda opened her eyes, she heard Tang Qi say:

"This time, it's the fish of rotten love. ”

Another half an hour later, a figure flashed back into the forest.

Amanda, who was stubborn about following Tang Qi on an adventure, opened her eyes and saw a wry smile on the corner of Tang Qi's mouth: "Well, luck is still not good, this time it's a rampaging dolphin." ”

......

In the dead forest, Tang Qi set off again.

At this time, in his perception, there was not much furnace magic left.

You can also do one more "bait" operation, and then whether you succeed or not, you must return to the forest and meditate to recover.

He had come here in search of another path to break free from his dependence on the Crucible Wizards.

Until then, he had relied heavily on the power of the Forge Wizard.

In the blink of an eye, Don Qi held Amanda in his arms and once again stood at the junction of the Obscurantist Forest and the Dark Plains. The embodiment called the "Eyeless Snake" that had been lured in before had indeed disappeared. After many bait operations, he has figured out the "limit of patience" of these embodied bodies.

Incomparably smooth, "Judgment" casts.

Just when Tang Qi thought that he would need to wait for more than ten seconds.

A strange omen came to him, and Tang Qi jerked his head and looked in the other direction.

Inside the thin mist, a shadow was silently emerging from the mist.

This time, it didn't select the dead tree area.

It seems to be a more cunning monster, as if it has already observed Tang Qi and wants to carry out a "sneak attack" from the side.

But it doesn't seem to know of itself, and its body is ridiculously large compared to other manifestations.

When the huge body broke through the mist without a sound and entered Tang Qi's eyes.

For the first time, Donch didn't retreat.

Despite the alarm bells ringing in my head.

But at this moment, Tang Qi turned around abruptly, faced the monster, did not close his eyes, and returned to the forest of ignorance at the same time.

Instead, the furnace magic in the eyes burned wildly, the projection was unprecedentedly real, and the gaze was completely condensed, completely unconcerned, this was an extremely dangerous and crazy "look-in-sight".
