At night, the canopy was almost completely devoid of light, except for patches of strange material that shimmered in the weeds, and it was unknown whether it was a mineral or a luminous fungus, which was not present on the other side of the camp.

The faint light kept the place from pitch black, and with Roger's super eyesight, he could move completely unhindered here, peering into the dangerous black-eroded area.

The fissure of nothingness, which the natives call the black erosion phenomenon, was lying quietly in the grass at this time, surrounded by large expanses of rubble and fallen weeds, as if to warn those who came after it of its appearance.

The center of the crack is deeply concave, and the surrounding area presents an unusually neat edge structure, as if it has been artificially built, showing an almost perfect half-bowl shape, who would have thought that this phenomenon with a slightly strange beauty would be a dangerous and abnormal void fissure?

Nothingness, used by mages to describe the medium that pervades the planes, has little meaning for the creatures that inhabit the planes, but that does not deny its existence.

Mortals knew very little about the Void, and at the height of magic, the mages studied it only because it had no mass, no energy, not to mention the peculiar nature of the so-called concept, and even Roger only had a certain understanding of the Void after unlocking the official Ranger privileges.

Nothingness is like egg liquid, and the plane wrapped in the crystal walls of the plane is like egg yolk, which is perhaps the simplest metaphor to explain nothingness.

Looking ahead, Roger doesn't need to use the 'insight' ability of his right eye to see the danger of that area, in fact, even if he wants to use his ability to snoop, there is nothing he can do about it, after all, nothingness is a thing on the same level as the concept, and it is not an existence that Roger's insight can see.

"Close to me, there could be danger here. ”

Roger moved cautiously and took the little boy and Senna behind him, "I'm a little sorry for the atmosphere that this creates without a few demons and monsters coming up in this situation." ”

"Roger, you're a little too timid, aren't you?"

Before Senna's words fell, a rustling voice sounded in front of the three of them, and Roger breathed a sigh of relief, pointed to the bulging ground and said, "Who said that...... Look, isn't that coming?"

In the lonely cold wind, it was as if someone had blown the horn of attack, the gravel surrounding the void crack was arched, pieces of hardened dirt were pushed aside, and with the chaotic noise of limb rubbing, countless figures covered in mud crawled out of the ground!

Among these figures were corrupted scouts, barely able to keep their bodies intact, and most of the rest were skeletons of bones, with only the faint appearance of beasts on all fours, and on their pale bones, a blackness deeper than the night, was lingering.

"Is this the corruption of the bones of the beasts that died on this grassland before? ”

In Roger's cautious gaze, these things that I don't know if they can be called undead appeared, and the void rift they surrounded was naturally not to be outdone, and the rift stirred up inexplicable energy fluctuations, and then, more than a dozen shadow god servants in the form of snake people crawled out of it.

How could the undead boy ever see such a battle? Immediately, he felt his head clouded, although he was also an undead, but he was still frightened enough by this strange and terrifying scene.

Those corrupted monsters that had just woken up from their slumber were the same as the ones Roger had dealt with before, they were obviously not fully active at first, they behaved clumsily, staggered, and didn't seem to pay attention to Roger and the three of them for a while, the trouble was that those shadow gods, after losing the power of Senua's amulet, how to deal with them gave Roger a headache.

"No matter, let's talk about it. ”

Seeing that the ground under his feet was also bulging, a narrow skull like a horse came out of the soil, and in the hollow eye sockets, fat meat maggots were wriggling wantonly, and before Senna could be disgusted, Roger kicked away the monster in front of him.

"I said, although it has become a skeleton, why don't we talk a little bit about hygiene? Why don't I introduce you to a guy with a habit of cleanliness as your hygiene teacher?"

No one paid attention to Roger's ridicule, his kick was like stabbing a hornet's nest, and the undead who were originally swaying and confused were all "sober" in an instant, countless pairs of blood-red light lit up from their empty eye sockets, and the entire area was filled with palpitating red light in the blink of an eye!

"Oops, how do I feel that these varieties are different. ”

"Don't be a fool, stay away from me!"

Senna was also a little furious when she saw this situation, and immediately reached out and grabbed the skeleton of a hyena next to her who was swaying towards her, and followed Roger's previous appearance, dragging the other party's deformed and twisted lower limbs, and hammering the corrupted monster that was still crawling out under her feet like a whack-a-mole.

I don't know if it's because those bones and undead are old and osteoporotic or Senna has exploded the small universe, and the next set of 'chaotic cloak hammer method' was beaten out by Senua's wielding tiger, only to hear a clanging impact, and the surrounding undead were swept away by Senna!

"Huh~ This girl has a future. ”

Seeing that he was safe for the time being, Roger complimented him with satisfaction, and once again focused most of his attention on the corrupted undead in front of him.

"Ice ring frozen!"

I saw that Roger closed his eyes, followed by a whirlwind of blue light on his body, and bursts of extremely cold cyclones spread out in all directions around him, and in the blink of an eye, all the undead who pounced on him were covered with a thick layer of frost, and after the stiff joints were frozen, the undead could not move an inch.

It has to be said that this vast and unsheltered environment is very suitable for Roger to pour out a wide range of magic at will.

Restricted by the frost, Roger only had to face the limited undead in front of him, which made him less stressed.

I saw Roger's soul shuttling between the stiff undead, constantly slicing through the fragile and withered bodies of the undead with cold freezing air and sharp blades of the wind—both of which consumed the least amount of magic.

It probably took less than ten minutes for the two of them to clean up these corrupted bone shelves, and as for the shadow gods, they seemed to be mixed in the pile of bones and rushed up together, and I don't know whether they were scattered by Senua, or dissipated under Roger's magic, in short, they could only see the shadows that were about to dissipate.

"That's the end of it? what...... Doesn't it feel right to fight? The Shadow Servant has become this strong outsider?"

Looking suspiciously at the fragments of bones on the ground, as well as those dissipating shadows, Roger didn't have much sense of this easy victory, and muttered silently in his heart.

"Forget it, let's go and study the so-called black erosion phenomenon. ”

Glancing back at Senua, who was panting as she hugged the little boy, Roger took a few quick steps, jumped over the rubble of the earth, and came to the edge of the Void Rift.

As he got closer, Roger felt more and more that this black eclipse was more and more like a huge eye, its scale was larger than any void rift Roger had seen before, and the most shocking thing in the void rift was the countless tiny roots that penetrated into it!

The largest of these roots was no more than the thickness of a thumb, and the smallest was as thin as a hair, and under the cover of the night, Roger did not notice it in the first place.

These tendrils meandered out of the edge of the void and grew freely in the air, crisscrossing and twisting into a web of thorns.

This "great net" almost obscures three-quarters of the edge of the black eclipse, so that the interference between nothingness and normal space can only be seen through the cracks in these roots.

Roger glanced down, and from the sheer number of black roots, he felt an indescribable majesty and grandeur—and, of course, the psychological pressure that came to his face. The chill crept up Roger's back, as if he were naked in the cold of winter.

During Roger's delay, Senna came to her senses and took the little boy by the hand.

"This is the black erosion phenomenon? I've seen it from afar before, and it's not as terrifying as I imagined. ”

Senna crouched down, wanting to get a closer look at the terrifying black erosion, she had only observed the black erosion phenomenon that occurred in the Glowing Plains from afar at the outpost, and she had never seen it so closely after dealing with this phenomenon for so long.

"Oops!"

Senua's body was so far forward that her center of gravity was unstable, and if Roger hadn't grabbed Senua's shirt with his quick hand, she would have fallen into the rift of nothingness, and even then, Senua's face smashed into those tendrils, and she had an intimate encounter with them.

"Why does this thing look so familiar...... Wait a minute, isn't this the root of the sacred tree Nuratis!

“...... This is the root of the sacred tree......" Roger muttered to himself, despite all his previous speculations. But I still didn't expect to see the roots of this ancient plant so thrilling, "This should be only a small part of ......"

Noticing that the roots surrounded the edge of the black erosion, as if to imprison it and prevent it from expanding, Senna reverently said, "Sure enough, the sacred tree Nuratis is still sheltering us. ”

"Asylum, I don't feel right. Roger squinted, he stared at the wriggling tentacles, giving the impression that it was not a means to stop the rift from expanding at all, but rather these roots were forcibly opening the void rift here!

As soon as this conjecture came out, Roger felt such a strange feeling suddenly hit him, making him subconsciously shiver, as if he had been swept away by some strange will.

Roger looked around in horror, except for Senua, who was praying reverently, and the little boy huddled beside him, there was nothing else around...... Wait a minute, not without ......

An inexplicable speculation was churning in Roger's mind, could it be that this consciousness was these tree roots?!

"Roger, do you say that I said the prayer to activate the sacred tree here, will it directly make the roots of the sacred tree close this black eclipse?"

"Don't, my aunt, don't!"

Roger felt that he couldn't communicate with this strangely nervous native girl......

He pulled Senna aside, and as he looked at the numerous, tangled, tangled roots on the edge of the eclipse, he felt more and more that they were exuding an endless stream of thoughts......

The tendrils had taken on a different form in Roger's eyes, like countless palms sticking out of nothingness, propping open rifts in the fragile dimensional space, guiding and welcoming the evil gods who wandered into the void to descend on this devastated world.

Roger had guessed that the so-called sacred tree might have pits, but he didn't expect that there would be so many situations challenging the three views.

At best, Roger had doubts that Nuratis was the primordial creature planted by the sun god himself, until a moment in the near future when he understood what he was about to face, and then he realized how many flags he had set along the way.

"I felt that this was a big pit before, but I didn't expect this pit to be deeper than I imagined...... By the way, how many calls are there from the boss?"
