Chapter 0382 On the Road

Erica was in a state of apprehension.

The hired carriage made its slow and difficult journey through the keel wilderness, accompanied by a witch in charge of the escort and six companions, all witches' apprentices. And on the periphery of a long dozen carriages, there were still thirty or forty black-armored guards scattered around.

They were sent by the family to escort them to the Tower of Destiny.

The thought of leaving her familiar surroundings, her sisters, and entering the tower of destiny that rivals the desert region, made Erica's heart even more depressed.

She was born in the small town of Mosto, in the Morin district, where the Dark Witches rule.

Since she was a young child, she was sent by her family to study witchcraft in the Dark Witch's Tower. After twelve long years of study, she became a witch apprentice with intermediate apprenticeship strength.

With this rate of ascension, it would be difficult for her to advance to the rank of witch!

And such a talent is obviously too inferior among witch apprentices, otherwise she would not have been picked out to give to the witch of fate. Along the way, she had secretly cried 3 times for this incident, and each time it was Freya who ran to comfort and persuade herself.

Freya is a beautiful and kind girl, and although she is only 15 years old, she is already a witch apprentice with advanced apprenticeship strength. As long as she can go one step further and increase her mental power to 20 points, she will be able to become a trainee witch with honor. At that time, the family will definitely do their best to cultivate her!

For this, Erica 100,000 couldn't figure it out.

If she was abandoned by the Dark Witch because of her stupidity, how could a witch apprentice like Freya, who has the hope of being promoted, be added to the 'dispatch list' together?

While Erica was distraught, there was a commotion on the periphery of the convoy.

"Wind Wolf ......"

"It's the Wind Wolf!"

There was a cacophony of shouts, faintly accompanied by a long and terrible wolf howl.

Damn, there's another monster attacking!

Ever since passing through the territory of the Death Witches and entering the outskirts of the Dragonbone Wilderness, this sneak attack has not stopped. There are too many terrifying monsters roaming the Dragonbone Wilderness, and all of them are ferocious and violent, and it is impossible for a large target like a convoy to escape their tracking and attack.

Along the way, monsters such as scavengers, earth trolls, burrowers, grey bags, ironclad rhinos, breathstealers, and thorntail lions have all appeared, and the black-armored guards on the periphery have lost eleven of them. If it weren't for the fact that there was also a Dark Witch in the team, I am afraid that the loss of manpower would have been even greater.

Every time she saw the dark witch floating in the air, throwing black halos into the hordes of monsters, killing them with shadow sorcery to make them flee in embarrassment, Erica couldn't help but cry with envy.

After studying in the Dark Witch's Tower, she really wanted to become a real Dark Witch. That would allow her to possess an enviable shadow body, master a vast amount of shadow sorcery, and more importantly, leave her soul imprinted in the Witch Tower's psionic pool.

This way, when she accidentally dies in battle, she only needs to consume some resources to resurrect from the psionic pool. This is also the main reason why most of the Dark Witch's fighting style is extremely fierce and ferocious!

However, not all family wizards can become dark witches, and it seems that they will have to go through a dark baptism. I heard that the trial wizard was sent to a secondary plane called the Dark Realm, where it was possible to obtain the baptism of darkness within the family after completing a certain number of killing indicators.

Until then, these are the future plans that Erica has been looking forward to. But now, when she embarks on the road to the Tower of Destiny, these past ideals and ambitions have also vanished into a beautiful bubble!

While Erica was silently grieving, the wolf howl in the distance became more and more terrible.

It seems that the sound is not far from the convoy!

"All the apprentices got out of the car and prepared to help the outer guards fend off the wind wolf......! Hurry up......" Seeing that the outer defenses were about to collapse, the dark witch finally spoke.

With the sound of fierce fighting, the thirty-two black-armored guards supported each other and retreated, regrouping near the convoy. Behind them, four companions were torn and besieged by a pack of wind wolves.

Wind wolf, as a kind of social monster, only has the strength of a junior apprentice, and has only one witchcraft, that is, to summon some wind particles to surround his body, so that his movements are faster and lighter, similar to the 'wind magic' of wind witchcraft. However, once the wolf pack exceeds 100, there will be elite wind wolves who have mastered the 'Wind Blade Technique', which is a kind of long-range witchcraft that ordinary people cannot resist at all.

On the periphery just now, the reason why the black-armored guards couldn't stop the attack of the wind wolves was because there were three powerful guys who could spit out wind blades inside. The cyan transparent wind blade sliced through the shield with every swarm spit, slicing through the body of the black-armored guard.

With the three of them in charge of clearing the way, the Black Armor Guards' attempts to keep the wolves out with their shields and armor were doomed to fail.

The black-armored guards who retreated to the vicinity of the convoy formed a simple battle formation with swords and shields in hand, protecting the witches and apprentices behind them. Before the wind wolves could rush forward, the apprentices began chanting witchcraft spells, and some botanical apprentices even threw thorn seeds to the periphery.

Soon, more than 130 wind wolves rushed over, raising their necks and letting out long howls of different lengths as they rushed.

The first thing they come into contact with is naturally the thorn seeds that catalyze the rapid growth of vines.

Under the urging of the witch's apprentice, the seeds of demonic thorns pulled out their delicate rhizomes and inserted them into the soil beneath them, and then their bodies began to swell and split. A thick thorny vine snapped and split into four or five smaller ones, densely covered with purple-black thorns and wolf-toothlike barbs.

The thorn that quickly grew demonized was wielding more than a dozen thorn rattans like a living thing, and every time it was wrapped or whipped on the wind wolf's body, the end of the rattan would crack a mouthpart full of tiny teeth, and the needles would drill wildly into the wind wolf's body.

Once successfully inserted into the wind wolf's body, the rattan, which was as thin as a finger just now, quickly swelled, accompanied by a tooth-sore and soft swallowing sound.

Almost instantly, the seven or eight wind wolves that rushed to the forefront became the prey of magical thorns, struggling frantically while biting at the rattan with their fangs and claws.

These apprentice-level demonized thorn origin materials obviously didn't use wire vines, so they were a little more fragile. While frantically attacking the wind wolf, the rattan tentacles extending from the demonized thorns were constantly torn and torn apart, and the strong acid solution and undigested flesh and blood in the hollow sac cavity were splashed everywhere.

Although the demonic thorns fought hard, the quantity and quality were obviously not enough to confront the wind wolf.

Soon, the Wind Wolves broke through this thin line of defense and approached the sword and shield human wall composed of black-armored guards.

And taking advantage of the short time that the wolves were restrained just now, the first round of witchcraft of the 7 witch apprentices had exploded in front of the wolves.

Acid sputtering!

Sourbog!

Witchcraft Fireball!

Sonic Hunt!

……

And Erica stood at the edge of the line and also contributed a shadow killer.

This is a low-level shadow sorcery that summons a humanoid killer from the shadows around enemies, dealing 8 shadow damage to nearby creatures. As long as its shadow core is not broken, it can last up to 380 seconds.

This is also the only group witchcraft that Erica has mastered!

In contrast, what Freya casts is a sonic hunt.

She shoved a large handful of screaming grass into her mouth, then put her hands around her mouth to make a trumpet shape, emitting a terrifying concussive sound wave.

As soon as all the wind wolves in the cone range in front of Freya rushed closer, they fell down with a terrible howl, losing control of their bodies. The black-armored guards who stood in front of Friya took the opportunity to slash their swords and kill the wind wolves who had lost their resistance one by one.

As soon as the three demon wolves who had mastered the wind blade technique approached the team, they were captured by the dark witch who closed her eyes and stared.

I didn't see how she shouted, but she just stretched out her hand and grabbed at the location of the demon wolf, and the demon wolf in the distance instantly fell into a life-and-death dilemma.

The shadow of the big tent exploded beneath the three demon wolves, turning into clouds of smoke that rolled them up and pulled desperately into the shadows below. It was as if a passage to the shadow world had opened, and no matter how much the three demon wolves struggled, they could not get rid of the shackles of the dark smoke, and disappeared into the shadows little by little.

When the demon wolf disappeared, the dark smoke dissipated.

What was still revealed was the solid tan dirt and the gravel everywhere.

As for the three demon wolves, they are long gone!

The disappearance of the leader immediately plunged the wind wolves into chaos, and after the wolves lost more than 1/4 of the pack, the wind wolves finally chose to retreat!

And after this battle, the black armor guards were killed in 7 battles, and the rest were all wounded.

But fortunately, the witch apprentices were unharmed, and this result also made the dark witch who led the team secretly relieved.

Although most of the 7 witch apprentices in front of him are low-potential people, they are also cultivated by the family after consuming a lot of resources. Now they have been given to the Witches of Destiny for nothing, which undoubtedly makes many family witches feel sincerely dissatisfied!

However, when she thought that the other party was going to helplessly throw resources on this group of 'garbage', the dark witch who led the team was inexplicably relieved!

If she is the leader of the fate family, I am afraid that she will die of a headache at this moment.

Spend resources on them to cultivate, all of them are low-potential people, even if there are occasionally one or two whose strength is acceptable, I am afraid that most of them are 'nails' sent by other families.

In this situation where there is no choice and no choice, what will the witch of fate named Alice do?
