Chapter 98

The magic forest is as quiet as a peaceful and beautiful green forest, looking down from the sky, the magic forest is like an emerald green felt carpet embedded in the gray wasteland, spreading away, dotting this heaven and earth, giving this continent a different kind of vitality.

However, this is a vast forest occupied by demon insects, at the beginning of the Lost Continent was separated from the Olawen continent, the demon insects evolved in the demon forest earlier than humans, and their strength was higher than that of humans, occupying this vast and beautiful world, expelling humans from the forest, and they could only live in the desert with a harsh environment, struggling to survive in the harsh environment.

Just like those demonic beast forests in the Orawen Continent, it is difficult for humans to move an inch in the forest, and they are even in danger of falling.

Now, a temporary camp has been set up in a clearing in front of the Demon Forest, and the warriors sent by the Central Main City to explore the Demon Forest have temporarily camped here, waiting for the arrival of the divination people. Not only that, but in this temporary camp, there are also the city lords of the central main city - Walton and the Great Witch.

"All the people found in the six cities? What accidents happened on the road? Walton asked.

As the leader of the team, Hawthorn came back and said: "I encountered several demon insect attacks on the road, the most dangerous of which was the giant scythe group, and one person died accidentally, it was from Dhaka City, and the guards of our main city died thirteen people. As he spoke, Hawthorn lowered his head with some guilt, not daring to look at the city lord's face.

Although Walton knew in his heart that this trip would not be too smooth, the number of casualties still made him frown. Moreover, I heard that among the dead people were the people designated in this divination, I was busy looking at the great witch, and I was worried that the person who died would not affect this matter.

The Great Witch sat there, the black jade plate in front of him was placed with the divination diamond stone, his hand slowly moved the diamond stone on it, his eyes were half-closed, and he did not speak.

Seeing this, Walton relieved himself, and carefully inquired about Hawthorn's mission this time, and finally said: "Let them rest for the night first, and leave early tomorrow morning." ”

Hawthorn answered, looked at the Great Witch, and saw that the Great Witch did not say anything, so he took his leave and left.

Jian Lu's group was also led to a resting place by the attendants of the central main city, each with a tent made of strange materials. The resources of the Lost Continent are not abundant, and this kind of tent seems to be taken from the demon insects, and the quality is very strong, Jian Lu studied it, and had to sigh at the creative power of the human race.

Although the area of the tent was a little smaller, Jian Lu did not dislike it.

In fact, he would have been eager to go into the Demon Forest to find Hines right away. It's just that he also knows that the magic forest is too dangerous, and entering the magic forest with his own strength is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, a very stupid act, it is estimated that he has not found Hines yet, he is about to be gnawed by the king worm in the demon forest, which is also he has been dormant for a long time, and after speculating on the development of things, he took the initiative to expose it, so he got this opportunity, and if he missed it, it would be gone.

On the premise of not being prepared, Jian Lu has never been too impulsive.

After resting for a night, the next morning, everyone gathered again, and this time finally saw the lord of the central main city and the legendary great witch.

For these two people to appear here, everyone is not surprised, if the matter of the Demon Worm Rebellion is not resolved, I am afraid that all the human cities in the Lost Continent will be in danger, and the casualties and losses will be countless, as the strongest city among the human race, and it is the closest to the Demon City, no matter what, what happened in the Demon Forest is also what they are most concerned about, otherwise the central main city will be the first to suffer.

The location of the central main city is the closest to the Demon Forest, although the Demon Forest is very dangerous, but the wealth in the Demon Forest is also incomparable to the desert, which can contain a central main city. It can be said that the relationship between the central main city and the Demon Forest is a mutually beneficial relationship, and if something happens to the Demon Forest, it will be the first to be affected.

Walton, the city lord of the central main city, is a first-class person with a handsome face, with dark green beast patterns on his forehead, he looks like he is about forty years, he is a fighting warrior, but his strength is incomprehensible, it is said that his strength has reached the quasi-saint level, and he is one step away from the holy domain.

It is said that this is the strongest man in the human race, and it is because of him sitting in the central main city that the main city can prosper and develop, and every city lord of the central main city will reach the strongest of the human race, sitting in the main city, and fighting against the threat from the demon forest.

"I'm sorry to have brought you all the way from the desert city." The Walton City Lord spoke, his expression was very strict, his eyes were deep, and his voice was full of the smell of iron and blood, "According to the instructions of the Great Witch's divination, you are warriors selected by God, and you will enter the Demon Forest with the warriors of the main city to find out the cause of this Demon Worm Riot......"

When the city lord of Walton spoke, the eyes of the big witch who stood behind Walton like an invisible man also fell on the fifteen people in front of him. The Great Witch is already very old, he looks like an old man, his eyes seem cloudy but seem to be godly, when his gaze falls on people, people will have the illusion that he has seen through.

Jian Lu had such an illusion, although his face was calm, but when the Great Witch's gaze fell on him for a long time, it almost made him think that the Great Witch saw through his disguise and knew his origin, his whole body stiffened, and he even couldn't help but plan the escape path in his heart.

Fortunately, when the Walton City Lord finished speaking, the Great Witch's gaze also retracted, and as before, as if no one was looking, as if he was looking at something again, standing there quietly as a background figure, giving people a sense of mystery and unpredictability.

The city lord of Walton didn't speak for long, but he didn't say a word of nonsense, and after briefly explaining the content of their mission and some key people, he clapped his hands, and a group of attendants came over with trays, and on each tray were some things, including magic scrolls, potions, alchemy products, etc.

"This mission is very dangerous, there are twenty life-saving scrolls, ten bottles of healing potions, and alchemy defenders, this is a little bit of the main city's heart, I hope you will make good use of them and return safely."

Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but be a little surprised, and hurriedly thanked the city lord for his generosity.

Jian Lu, like everyone else, took it away, checked it by the way, and found that these were only intermediate-level Five Elements Element Scrolls, and the healing potions were all primary, which could only treat some external injuries, and the alchemy defender could resist the blow of the magician, although it was also a big deal, but it was really incomparable with the generosity of some of the big forces in the Olawen Continent.

However, after realizing the situation of the Lost Continent, Jian Lu also knew that the Central Main City was actually very generous in being able to take out these things, which showed that he attached great importance to this matter. It's just that for those king insects in the Demon Forest, these things are still a bit rubbish.

Jian Lu received them in his carry-on luggage.

Because of the lack of resources in the Lost Continent, things like space rings are even rarer than those in the Olawen Continent, and most magicians can't see things like space rings in their lifetimes, and only the city lords in some first-class cities can have them, and the number is so rare that they can be counted.

Before finding Hines, Jian Lu didn't want to make a fuss, so like everyone else, he got a duffel bag, put the things he needed in the duffel bag, and hung them on his body.

When they were ready, they set off.

In addition to them, the central main city sent two hundred people to accompany them, one hundred and thirty fighting warriors, seventy magicians, and fifteen people including Jian Lu to form this expedition team.

Quintina's heart was a little hanging, and she looked at the rich emerald color of the demon forest, and secretly swallowed her saliva.

This kind of greenery, full of life, is clearly desirable to all human beings, but they are afraid of its danger.

Quintina couldn't help but lean closer to Jian Lu.

There were two magicians from other cities who leaned towards Jian Lu with her, probably when they saw Jian Lu's strength on the road, they both felt that it was safer and more reliable by his side, while the others saw that there were a lot of people from the central main city, so they looked for the strong ones and moved closer to them.

In normal times, they naturally wouldn't dare to do this kind of thing, but when they found out that in this mission, they were all people in the divination of the great witch, and a sense of mission of fate made them believe in it. And these guards of the central main city, of course, want to protect their safety, which makes them inexplicably feel a sense of pride and self-satisfaction.

"A bunch of idiots." Alger was so angry that his face turned blue, "I can't see things clearly, I'm ignorant, I don't know how to die." After speaking, I was a little depressed in my heart, the people in their central main city have always been proud, and they look down on the soil buns from the border cities, but now they want to protect this group of soil buns, how not to vomit so much.

"Alger, look away." Burly Buck patted him on the shoulder.

Agnes stroked the curls that fell down her chest and smiled sexily, "Alger, your temper is going to change, and something will happen sooner or later." As he spoke, a pair of beautiful eyes couldn't help but look at the silver-moon-haired young man in the crowd.

Buck and Alger followed her gaze and immediately understood what she meant, and there was a slight smile on their faces.

As soon as you step into the magic forest, you can feel the difference between the magic forest and the outside.

First of all, the air here is quite fresh, with trees covering the sky and the sun, and there is no scorching heat and wind and sand in the desert; Secondly, the forest was so quiet that the occasional rustling sound could be heard in the grass, like a small worm crawling by, giving people goosebumps.

After a group of more than 200 people entered the magic forest, they walked lightly like a secluded forest.

The environment of the Lost Continent is harsh, demon insects are everywhere, and the pressure of survival leads the people here to fight extraordinarily, even if they are delicate and weak magicians, their physique is much stronger than that of the Olawen Continent, and there is no problem in hand-to-hand combat. The only thing they can't compare to Jian Lu is that they don't have a good magic inheritance and magic accumulation, and the magic elements of this world are indeed insufficient compared to the Olawen Continent.

The elemental elf hid in Jian Lu's sleeve, and since entering the Demon Forest, it expressed its mood to Jian Lu.

[Master, I don't like the smell of green here. 】

[Why?] 】

[There is always a feeling of nastyness.] The elemental elf replied, "The wood element in the Demon Forest is very strong, but there are many nasty things. 】

After listening to this, Jian Lu understood the meaning of the elemental elves, for the elemental elves who were born close to magic, they all had a dislike attitude towards people and things without elemental affinity - including creatures such as demon insects, among which the dragons with the strongest resistance to demons were the objects that the elemental elves disliked the most.

Jian Lu smiled slightly, and with a flash of thought, the system map appeared in front of him.

The system screen lit up instantly, outlining the map of the Demon Forest, and Jian Lu saw that where they were the www.biquge.info of the Pen Fun Pavilion, the red light was spreading away, and that kind of dense process almost made people feel a kind of dense fear. In a few seconds, the system map finally outlined the map of the entire Demon Forest.

Jian Lu's brows furrowed.

In the Demon Forest, there were two hundred and fifteen white points of light representing their group of people, and then there were no other points of light representing human beings. He searched several times without giving up, but he didn't see any other points of light, and his expression instantly became gloomy.

Hines wasn't even on the system map?!!

That's impossible!

[Green, can you feel the breath of a dragon in the magic forest?] 】

Although the elemental elf didn't know why Jian Lu asked this, he still replied: "I can't feel it...... But there's a nasty feeling. 】

This kind of answer is equivalent to not answering, but it seems to give an answer.

Jian Lu didn't give up asking the system, but unfortunately the system probably felt that there was nothing to answer about this kind of thing, and pretended to be dead as at the beginning. Jian Lu had no choice but to pretend to be in his heart, and with a calm face and everyone to move towards the depths of the Demon Forest.

On the first day of entering the Demon Forest, they encountered a group of demon insects living in groups, and they were chased so much that they were almost tired like dogs, and it was not until it was almost night that they got rid of the group of demon insects like ants, and under the arrangement of people with experience in the Demon Forest in the central main city, they found a safe place to camp.

Quintina sat down beside Jian Lu as usual, looking around vigilantly with a pair of eyes, and whispered to Jian Lu while solving their dinner, "Grafad, are you feeling unwell again?" You look bad today. ”

Jian Lu's expression did not change, and he said lightly: "I'm fine, don't worry." ”

Although Quintina knew that he actually had a good heart, but the indifferent and ruthless image that Jian Lu gave people was also deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, although she was unilaterally familiar with him, but she didn't want to say it, and she didn't dare to ask more, just looked at his expression and was a little worried.

Then, seeing Jian Lu halfway through eating, he suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood, and the faint smell of blood floated in the fresh air, and the fighter with a keen sense of smell couldn't help but look over.

Jian Lu didn't seem to know how many peeping eyes there were around, he wiped the blood away with a calm expression, rinsed his mouth with water, cleaned the smell of blood in his mouth, and continued to eat dinner casually, his expression was so calm that it was as if he had just spit just now, so that everyone who saw it couldn't help but swallow the saliva, feeling that this person was really speechless.

Soon, Jian Lu fully let these people from the Lost Continent know that there are so many things that he can't say.

From the tenth day of entering the Demon Forest, Jian Lu suddenly reversed his previous low-key, and the whole person became high-profile and domineering, and the magic spells and magic scrolls were used as if they were not for money, which was simply blinding.

There is a certain amount of magic power in the body of each level of magician, just like how much water is in a big cup, obviously this person gives people the feeling that he is a high-level magician, but the magic power reserve on his body is like a magician, and even Hawthorn, who led the team this time, is a little ashamed.

- Kudos to the Elemental Elf cheat again.

Secondly, his magic scrolls are even more inexhaustible, when he encountered a group of high-level demon insects on the tenth day, this person directly took out hundreds of magic scrolls and directly smashed a road, almost leading the demon forest to catch fire, and then threw out dozens of scrolls that covered clouds and rain, and a rainstorm extinguished the fire.

The number of magic scrolls he used had exceeded the twenty scrolls given by the Central City before he set off. And the most powerful thing about this person is that he can also use space magic scrolls to store things, which almost makes people's eyes blind, and their hearts are terrified, I have never heard of it, people who are not space magicians can also make space scrolls.

Jian Lu ignored the other people's thoughts, and with a cold face all the way, he used violence to open a way domineeringly, and pushed towards the depths of the Demon Forest. Enter. And those two hundred people are the guards behind him, and they are used by him thoroughly, he only needs to be responsible for opening the way, those people are responsible for breaking the road, and at the same time dealing with the pursuit of those enraged demon insects, it is simply miserable.

Quintina also secretly complained, the more things Jian Lu exposed, the more dangerous his mirror became, she wanted to ask this person if he knew, but looking at his handsome and cold face, there was a cold feeling in the green shadow, and she couldn't ask.

Quintina's fears finally came true two months after entering the Magic Forest.

Two months after entering the Demon Forest, they had traveled two-thirds of the way, and at the same time lost one hundred and five people.

Such a loss rate is all frightening.

Jian Lu looked at the itinerary on the system map, and couldn't help frowning, feeling that this speed was still too slow. He stared at the direction of the depths of the Demon Forest for a long time, and then raised his injured right hand, which had stopped bleeding, but he did not take the liberty of it, but directly poured a bottle of potion, although the healing effect was not as good as the blessing of the holy light, but it was better than nothing.

Just as Jian Lu looked at the depths of the Demon Forest and pondered, suddenly Quintina's scream rang out.

"Grafad, be careful!"

Jian Lu moved in response, his long and thin body drifted forward like a light wind, falling on the crown of a big tree in front of him, and then falling from the crown to the side, and at the same time pinching his hands, the two fire dragons roared diagonally, fighting against the behemoth rushing behind him.

This series of accidents happened too suddenly.

Except for Jian Lu, who was facing away, everyone saw the huge demon insect that suddenly broke out of the ground, its shell was a metallic color, cold and hard, like a moving house. From a distance, you can see its shape, it resembles a myriapod, and just looking at the metallic shell and the sharp hook makes people feel terrified.

There is no doubt that this is a king worm, and it is a very strong king worm.

They came all the way, either they didn't encounter the king insects, but they were either lucky enough to choose the path before the king insects found out, or they worked together to kill them and continue to move forward, or they lost both, but the strength of those king insects was relatively weak, and even the largest was only like an adult elephant, when had you ever seen such a big one?

As soon as this king insect appeared, the destructive power was very amazing, and those old trees that had grown for an unknown number of years were uprooted by it, and the soil was splashed everywhere.

In the face of this behemoth, the humans who did not reach the Sanctuary had no choice but to escape.

Jian Lu's two fire dragons did not cause the slightest damage to it, and could only stop it for a moment.

"Let's go!" Hawthorn stopped it with a spell as he shouted at the man behind him.

Those people from the third-rate city were escorted away in a panic, only Quintina not only did not run, but ran towards the king worm, because Jian Lu was still there, so she couldn't do it to watch him fall into the attack of the king worm.

At this time, a foot kicked her in the chest and kicked her away: "Idiot, don't leave yet." ”

Quintina spewed out a mouthful of blood and barely raised her head, only to see Alger and Buck and other people in the central main city attacking the demon worm, Alger and Agnes cooperated, Buck moved towards Jian Lu, and after coming to Jian Lu's side, this magician and a warrior cooperated.

Quintina spat out a mouthful of blood foam, retreated from the attack range of the king worm, and looked at the people who attacked the king worm, the human being was as weak as an ant in front of the demon worm, like a mantis arm as a car, and he couldn't measure himself.

After a while, Agnes and Buck glanced at each other, and the two suddenly pulled back, and Jian Lu and Alger were exposed to the king worm and became the target of the king worm.

"Egnes!" Alger roared, his face twisted and hideous, and his eyes full of disbelief.

Jian Lu's eyes were cold, without the slightest surprise, he raised the staff of Milotus in his hand, as if bright sunlight suddenly fell from the sky, illuminating this sunless continent, the holy and soft light turned into countless sharp and cold light blade darts, and like a rain of light, towards the king worm.

The sound of a doo sound sounded, and the cold shell of the demon insect attacked by the light blade did not hurt it in the slightest.

Hawthorne's eyes widened in disbelief.

This is......

Wang Worm swung a huge sharp foot at Alger and Jian Lu, and although they were blocked by the light blade, the two were still knocked out and fell the trunk of the big tree. Before they could react, the king worm rumbled over, its sharp mouthparts chewing and waving, and the tree was cut off at the waist wherever it passed.

"Grafadβ€”" Quintina screamed, her magic running out again, and she could only pick up a longsword and rush forward.

Jian Lu spat out a mouthful of blood foam, and his eyes turned black, but his body still jumped up reflexively and dodged the blow. At this moment, as soon as his arm tightened, he was pulled up, and the man watched him jump onto the canopy of a large tree. He hurriedly turned his head to see Aljay's hideous face, covered in blood.

The king worm stared at them with two cold compound eyes, waving its two forefeet, and attacked them with a bang.

Alger pulled Jian Lu, laughing, arrogant and crazy, turned around and ran towards Agnes and the others, the fiery red fighting spirit on the magic sword in his hand burning fiercely, piercing the sky.

Jian Lu was staggered by him, and found that this kid was going crazy, and if he went crazy like this, he would also be unlucky to be affected by him. Just as they were about to kick him away, suddenly the two fighting qi in front of them roared towards them, colliding with Alger's fighting qi, forcing them back and sending them into the attack range of the king worm.

"You-" Hawthorn was furious.

Buck avoided a fallen tree and said innocently, "Hawthorn, we're just attacking this king worm." ”

Agnes also smiled, but looked at Jian Lu and Alger coldly.

Her gaze wandered between Wang Worm and the two of them, originally planning to kill the first-class person named Grafad by Alger's hand when she entered the Demon Forest this time, take his magic wand and other things, and then kill Alger, the arrogant boy, so she instigated Alger along the way, and Alger's simple temper did not surprisingly follow her heart and became murderous to Grafad.

It's a pity that at this critical moment, Alger reacted instead, which is really not fun.

Hawthorne knew that there were contradictions between the people of several factions in the main city, but he didn't expect that Egnes and Buck, who were good friends with Alger, would suddenly turn against the water and want to use this mission to kill Alger.

At this time, Hawthorn also understood that the appearance of this king worm was too sudden, and there was not even a hint at all, it must have been lured by them in a special way.

At this time, the king worm had destroyed all the giant trees within a radius of several miles, and it was a mess, and Jian Lu and Alger became the targets of the king worm, chasing after the two of them.

Alger's eyes were bloodshot and crazy, and everyone was a little crazy. And when he was crazy, he didn't forget Jian Lu and held him tightly by his side, and he didn't know if he found out that the two were connected by the same fate.

Jian Lu finally couldn't bear it anymore and a wind blade slashed at his buttocks, making a big hole there, and letting this kid let him go.

Alger, who had a broken ass, scolded: "You bastard! ”

The two fell to the ground fiercely, and Wang Worm was a hundred meters behind him, leaping over and jumping a hundred meters.

The shadow of the king worm was cast from the sky, and Jian Lu and Alger jumped up arm in arm and lunged forward, avoiding the king worm's blow.

At this moment, suddenly a howling sound containing infinite power came from the depths of the Demon Forest, the sound was like a dragon's groan, everything was afraid, and nothing within a radius dared to respond.

The voice exuded infinite power, and even human beings, who were the spirits of all things, were shocked and fell to the ground, trembling and trembling, and their hearts were terrified.

The king worm that was chasing Jian Lu also suddenly fell down in mid-air, and its huge and heavy body fell to the ground, falling out of a big pit. The two tentacles on its head trembled constantly, its two forefeet rubbed against each other, and a pair of compound eyes looked into the depths of the demon forest.

It seemed that a century had passed, and it seemed that only a moment had passed, and everyone felt a huge coercion coming from a distance, and that kind of fear made people's heartstrings tremble, shocked, and even wondered if it was the top king worm in the depths of the Demon Forest that was alarmed, and when they came here, could they still escape?

In the trembling of everyone and the king insect, a huge black shadow was projected in the sky, and when they subconsciously looked up, they saw that the black shadow's outstretched wings, under the gray sky, were the brightest golden yellow, with a clear color, so bright that it pierced people's eyes.

With a bang, the terrifying creature landed in the ruined forest, and the earth shook.
