Chapter 0856 - Forest Cabin
Black Forest.
This is an underexplored Black Forest.
The tall and straight ancient trees are next to each other, and the lush branches and leaves cover the darkness and depth of the forest.
The dark dirt was rarely exposed, and it was covered with dense fungi and wild moss, and of course more thorny bushes and creeping demonic vines.
No matter what time it is, a faint layer of black gas lingers in the forest, making this place look like a magical jungle.
And in this strange land that outsiders can't easily set foot in, a simple forest hut suddenly appears there, which seems so out of place with the surrounding environment.
With a creak of the door, a beautiful woman in a green robe with a light body stepped out of it, holding a strange staff decorated with delicate patterns in her hand.
The slender waist that is unbearable, the beautiful figure that is tall and graceful, the delicate face that makes the heart pound, the strange long hair of light green, and the long pointed ears that stick obliquely from the sideburns......
Surprisingly, this beautiful woman turned out to be a forest spirit from another world.
Pushing open the wooden door and standing in the small clearing in front of the wooden house, looking around at the deep and dark forest around her, Melinda's heart was full of fear and despair.
This forest hut was her prison cell, and this ugly Black Forest was the prison where she was held.
In the dead of night, all kinds of strange beasts and monsters roar one after another. Even if she was hiding in the cabin, Melinda's keen hearing could sense the movement of hordes of monsters roaming around the hut.
If it weren't for the strange circle of demonic plants on the outside of the hut that blocked the monsters' tracks, I'm afraid she would have been torn to pieces by the group of ferocious and terrifying monsters and swallowed into her stomach.
The encirclement of the demonic plant is only 50 meters in radius, and her range of movement is limited to these 50 meters. Once she stepped out of the woods hut, she would have to face all kinds of strange and ferocious monsters in the Black Forest.
Melinda really couldn't imagine that she, as a forest elf, would one day be trapped in a forest.
On her first day here, she tried to talk to the plants.
It's a pity that every ancient tree and weed here feeds back to her a longing for flesh and blood, a distorted consciousness that borders on madness.
If the magical forest of the Faenne plane is a group of vegetarians, then the dark forest of the wizarding world is a terrifying carnivorous beast. Not to mention the beasts and monsters here, even the flowers and plants inside are full of fierce and terrifying tyrannical aura.
In this kind of black forest, which is full of danger everywhere, and everywhere is full of death and killing, the forest elves, known as the children of the forest, are unable to move an inch. Even if that terrible demon didn't put any chains and shackles on Melinda, she would have no way to escape here, but to stay in the hut honestly, and take care of the strange 'moon well' for the other party.
Yes, I don't know what means were used, but that terrible demon actually planted a moon well in front of the forest hut, and Melinda's mission was to take care of and urge the moon well to grow.
When night falls, when the full moon hangs high in the sky, a quiet and elegant ray of moonlight will shine above the forest hut, shining straight on the strange moon well. And every time at this time, if Melinda knelt in front of the moon well and prayed sincerely, her spiritual consciousness would vaguely return to the magical forest full of dreamy atmosphere.
The familiar smell of the earth, the familiar fragrance of the grass and trees, the flower spirit flapping its wings and shuttling through the forest, all the ancient trees and vegetation swaying, with the help of the melodious and gentle breeze to greet her kindly......
In the distance, you can even hear the crisp and hearty call of your companions......
This is the only time of the day that is Melinda's happiest moment!
When the moon well was first planted, the strange roots that surrounded the moon well were obviously not adapted to the environment and soil here, and they all began to wither and wither, and it was only thanks to Melinda's tireless use of natural spells such as 'rejuvenation', 'purifying the earth', and 'plant growth' that it came back to life.
It took half a year for the moon well to barely adapt to the environment, and once again digging its roots deep into the soil, drawing a completely different magic from the earth. After half a year of recovery and nourishment, this moon well, which is more than one meter deep and half a meter in diameter, gathered a pool of clear and green moon water at the bottom of the well.
Melinda also secretly tasted it.
Just that bite almost burned her belly, if she hadn't treated herself in time, I'm afraid Melinda would have died under this otherworldly version of the moon water.
Melinda is only a Tier 1 Forest Elf Priest.
With her knowledge and knowledge, it was obvious that she could not decipher the real reason why the water of the Moon Well was so violent.
Originally, she was still worried that the demon would give up this place because of the mutation of the water of the moon well. In doing so, Melinda would return to the terrible wizard's tower, imprisoned in a dark prison in the dark, or be favored by a wizard to become one of those disgusting blood elves or test subjects.
There are hundreds of forest elves who have been swept up here by the wizards with her, but after this period of time, there are not many companions who can still maintain pure faith and pure and beautiful hearts.
If Melinda hadn't been chosen by that terrible demon because of her status as a priest, she probably wouldn't have escaped the same fate as her companions.
And that demon...... Demon...... In fact, he is also a handsome young man, full of evil charm, wisdom and power. If you don't consider the identities and camps of both sides, in fact...... In fact, the other party is also a mate who can make people's hearts flutter.
Pity...... The identities, statuses, camps, and beliefs of both sides are completely different, which also fills Melinda's heart with regret and sorrow!
It's night again, the full moon is rising, and the demon is coming soon......
Melinda, who was a little flustered, walked quickly to a corner of the open space in front of the house, where a strange wooden well appeared.
The mouth of the well is wooden, about half a meter above the ground, and the edge of the well is wrapped around the perimeter of turquoise vines and flower branches. They do not grow independently, but are embedded in the wooden grain along the edge of the well, slightly floating and convex, lifelike, and vivid.
As if sensing Melinda's approach, the vines and flower branches on the walls of the moon well became active. A few budding buds also bloomed, and a pungent fragrance permeated the surroundings, making this quiet and dark forest warm and peaceful for the first time.
Melinda knelt lightly in front of the moon well, holding the natural staff in one hand and caressing the edge of the moon well with the other, muttering silently and chanting psalms and prayers in praise of the moon god.
I don't know when, a faint and elegant moonlight shines down from the treetops and is falling on the mouth of the moon well.
With Melinda's sincere prayers and constant praises, a strange mysterious power rippled and wandered in the moon well, and the beautiful light on the wall of the well began to flow. If you look closely, these beautiful brilliances are actually a combination of small and subtle strange runes.
A strong force of nature spread, partly stimulating the roots of the moonwell to continue to grow, partly dissipating into the earth and air, changing the subtle environment of the surroundings, and partly gathering in the moonwell, condensing into drops of green liquid full of strange magical aura......
However, just as Melinda fell into some kind of special meditation and illusion, a huge flame rose into the sky in a gravel clearing in the corner of the forest hut.
The flames come and go as fast as they come.
The flames burst into flames, but they did not damage the surrounding plants in the slightest, and they did not even alarm the elven priestess who was still in the lost and confused state.
When the flames subsided, Grim's tall and handsome figure was revealed.
This forest hut was one of the witchcraft experiments he had set up to verify the magic of the elven magic facility of the Moon Well.
Judging from the current results, only this has been successful, and the other two have failed one after another.
Of course, the reasons for the failure are varied, the most suspicious being Melinda's priestly status.
After all, there is only one elven priestess who has been taken back from captivity, and the other two places are taken care of by the elven mage and the other by the druid. They also possess natural spells similar to Melinda's, but unfortunately let the moon well wither little by little.
Of course, Melinda's test site is not a complete success!
After Grim's investigation and sampling, the nature of the moonwater born here and the moonwater taken from the plane of Faun was completely different.
According to chip analysis, the concentration of the magic power of the new moon water is even 230% higher than that of the Faun moon water.
This also means that if any wizard swallows Crescent Moon Water, the balance of the elements in his body will be disturbed by the excessively strong magical aura, which will cause the magic to run wild.
Far from being a life-saving holy water, crescent water has become a poison that kills people!
However, according to the special properties of crescent moon water, if a special process is used to refine and dry, a strange magic spirit can be obtained.
This magic essence is a powdered magic essence, which is a very precious magic material in high-level alchemy, which can give high-level magic items the special property of automatic return to magic.
In the high-end market of the wizarding world, each gram of magic elves can be sold for a sky-high price of 2,000 magic crystals.
According to the monthly water yield of this moon well, about 50 grams of demon essence can be refined every month.
Of course, under the detection and data derivation of the chip, it provides a new idea for Grim.
If the process can be improved, the magic spirit powder can be refined and sublimated into a powerful magic spirit again, and even some ordinary people who do not have magical talents can also have magic power, and from then on embark on the path of wizards.
This is actually what Grim values the most!
