After nearly eight days of traveling, everyone finally came to the vicinity of their destination.

Backed by the vast endless forest, Lakeside Ridge borders the historic city of Bedetown, with beautiful mountains and rivers and beautiful birds and flowers, and many nobles liked to build manors nearby in the past, which is the best place to set foot on the royal horses.

It's a pity that since the destruction of the Bede Cathedral, there has been a riot of demonic beasts nearby, which are not only more aggressive, but also have abnormal habits. Many breeds that have never been recorded have been witnessed by adventurers one after another. After a preliminary investigation by Warcraftians, these so-called new species are just physical evolution produced by the energy devouring between species, and they do not have the ability to reproduce the next generation at all, and strictly speaking, they are not new species at all.

And Du Yuhan finally saw what "Warcraft is raging".

I thought that before approaching the destination, even if there was a possibility of encountering a demonic beast, there should be no danger. Unexpectedly, as soon as they stepped into the grassland, they were given a big surprise.

Not to mention those rabbit squirrels that have turned red and red-eared, and those man-eating flowers with bloody mouths, who will sue him, what kind of dead tree is behind him that chases them all over the map, runs fast with long teeth and claws, and has an automatic tracking function?!

"Heywood!" Du Yuhan shouted, picked up the big sword with both hands to block the thick branches that the dead wood plunged straight into, and it was able to stop ten centimeters away from the front door, and the fierce force shook his mouth painfully.

Seeing this, Kevin immediately raised his hand to flick away a cloud of milky white energy, tightly wrapping the opponent's sword-holding hands.

The rotten tree more than three meters tall let out a furious roar at him, and the thick branches of the bowl mouth were like two sledgehammers swinging rapidly, and the rotten bark was cracked layer by layer, and the cracks looked like a pair of hideous facial features, which made people's scalp tingle.

Drawing three arrow feathers, Heywood fired a few arrows at the deadwood beast's heel, temporarily restricting its movement in place, and Du Yuhan took the opportunity to leap backwards, jumping out of its attack range with a tumbling.

But a few ordinary feather arrows couldn't do much at all, and the deadwood beast quickly broke free of the feather arrows and continued to roar towards Du Yuhan.

At the critical moment, a muffled sound came from behind it, and the Deadwood Beast let out a short howl and staggered forward a few steps, the thick branch on its right snapping off.

Turning his head, Bruno was half-crouching behind him with his arm blade in his hand, and the beast pattern on his long arm was looming. He pulled out the sharp blade inserted in the broken branch with all his might, no longer giving the other party a chance to turn over, and the blade of his arm flew up and down flexibly. But the deadwood beast seemed to be painless and insensible, ignoring the serious injury of the broken arm, and turned to attack Bruno.

Standing in the distance, Kareed urged the fighting energy in his body from the beginning of the battle, silently reciting incantations in his mouth, and constantly adjusting his right hand with the newly generated grid. Finally, a spherical white mold the size of a face disc hovers over his left wrist. With a shake of his right hand, he flipped out a bright red ball, pinched it with two fingers, and the fragile ball burst open, and a majestic flame energy quickly condensed near the white mold, and was absorbed by the white mold.

The white mold, which had absorbed a large amount of fire elements, turned into a large fireball that burned brightly. Kharad yelled and dodged, and before anyone else could react, he snapped a fireball towards the Deadwood with a flick of his fingers.

The two melee classes heard the call behind them and escaped from the battle circle without hesitation, and the moment their feet hit the ground, a dark red fireball roared and slammed into the deadwood beast.

With a loud bang, the fireball exploded, and the dry, flammable branches of the trunk became the best fuel. The crackling explosion was like the screams of a deadwood beast, and the whole tree let out a low click.

Soon, the sound of dry wood popping gradually became quieter, and the huge tree body fell to the ground with a bang, raising a large cloud of dust.

Everyone was a little overwhelmed by the scene in front of them, and looked straight at Kared behind them, but they didn't expect this super strong deadwood beast to be killed like this.

Du Yuhan looked at the dead branches that were still burning under his feet in a daze, and couldn't help but sigh sincerely.

It's so powerful!

Anyway, why haven't you heard that a modeler can cast magic before?

Du Yuhan squatted down and poked the motionless strange tree on the ground with his long sword, once again feeling the magic of this world. What is this big eat? Nima will run away from even the tree!

"Strange ......," muttered Kevin, who also crouched down to examine the body.

"Huh? What's wrong? Du Yuhan turned his head to look at the other party.

"This tree ......" Kevin carefully picked up a piece of broken wood and examined it carefully, due to the loss of energy control, the wood grain on it had begun to crack, and with a light touch, wood chips were scattered all over the ground. This tree is a plant, not a magic plant. ”

Hearing this, Du Yuhan was stunned, "What do you mean?" ”

It's not a magic plant, so why do you take the initiative to attack people?

Kevin brought the broken wood to him and pointed to a deep rift, "Look here. ”

Following the direction of Kevin's finger, the incision of the crack was still made of rotten wood, but in the depths of the rift, a trace of dark blue energy fluctuations were hidden, shining with a strange light. If it weren't for Kevin's sharp eyes, he wouldn't have been able to spot it.

"Huh?" Du Yuhan broke the broken wood along the crack, and the trace of energy became more conspicuous. But it didn't take long for the energy to become more and more dim, and finally completely dissipated under the gaze of the two of them. "What is this?"

Kevin shook his head, "I don't know, but I think it's the reason why this tree went berserk." ”

"Why do you say that?" Heywood frowned.

He picked up the staff and thrust it into the trunk of the tree with all his might, and the rotten torso pierced through the staff without resistance. Kevin rummaged through it again for a long time, but he couldn't find what he was looking for, "It doesn't have a magic core." ”

In this world, as long as there are magical beasts or magic plants that can release magic, there will definitely be magic cores that store magic. But this weird tree doesn't have a magic core, which means it's just an ordinary plant.

The point is, will ordinary plants chase people all over the map?

"If it doesn't have its own organs to release magic, it is absorbing the magical energy of the outside world, and it has the ability to act." Kevin stood up and patted the dust on his hands, "As long as enough energy is injected, the dead thing can also act accordingly according to the will of its owner." It's the same as the puppet of the alchemist system zuò, and the model of the model master system zuò. ”

The area used to be a forest, but it was sold to a landowner and turned into a lumber yard, and a large number of trees were cut down. Later, the city lord took back the area and planned it as a manor resort, and only then did he retain a small area of jungle for landscape use.

Watching many of their companions being cut down indiscriminately by humans, although they can't have an active consciousness, the hearts of these plants are full of resentment towards humans. So, when they absorb this unknown energy and develop the ability to act, all that remains is endless revenge and destruction.

"I see." Bruno, who was standing on the sidelines, nodded knowingly.

"I guess the reason why the demonic beasts around here have mutations is inseparable from this unknown energy." Kevin's brow furrowed even deeper.

Could it be that what Uncle Noyce said is true?

The destruction of Bede Cathedral activates a powerful energy that causes the surrounding creatures to mutate. I thought that there was still a lot of distance from Bide Town, and it should not be very affected, but I didn't expect to see it with my own eyes, and it was already so strict.

Just such a trace of energy can make this big tree so powerful, so how powerful will the owner with this energy be? They didn't even dare to think about it.

Uncle Noyce, what the hell is he doing now-

"Bede Cathedral ......," Kevin muttered to himself.

Deng Shi understood the other party's concern, and Du Yuhan patted him on the shoulder.

"Huh? What happened to the cathedral? Bruno's expression was confused, how could this strange tree have anything to do with the church?

“…… My uncle went missing in the town of Bede. Kevin's eyes were half-down, his face full of worry.

Bruno understood. The destruction of Bede Cathedral alarmed half of Lindote country, and many city lords of the royal city immediately sent people to investigate the cause of the incident, coupled with the riot of demonic beasts nearby, making the situation in Bede Town even more suspicious. If you lose contact at this juncture, it is likely that you should be more than lucky.

It's one thing to think in his heart, but his mouth is still about to be relieved, and he suddenly has a flash of inspiration, "By the way, I remember that Kared mentioned before that he came from Bedetown, maybe he will know something about the town." ”

Hearing this, Kevin tried to describe Noyce's physical features to Cared.

"Bedetown?" After listening to the other party's gesture, Kareid's eyes flashed, and he frowned and shook his head, "I did live there for a while a few days ago, but I haven't seen the person you said. ”

Although I didn't have much hope at first, when I really confirmed it, I couldn't hide the feeling of loss. Seeing Kevin's sad face, Du Yuhan patted him on the shoulder, "After we go back, we will go to find out the news of your uncle, believe me, it will be fine." ”

Kevin Waner, "Well, I believe you. ”

All:......

Du Yuhan was a little embarrassed by Kevin's straightforwardness. Although they are already lovers, they show their affection so openly or something......

"Can we go?" At this time, Kared, who had been standing behind without speaking, spoke, and several people hurriedly packed up and continued on their way.

Looking at Kareid, who had been silent, Du Yuhan remembered the powerful fireball technique just now, and decided to talk to him with a shy face. "Kared, you just made such a powerful move!"

Subconsciously glanced at Du Yuhan's left wrist, and found that the other party was not wearing a bracelet, Kareid's expression relaxed, and he put on a decent smile, "Pass the award." ”

didn't miss the other party's small movements, Du Yuhan couldn't help but secretly rejoice that he put the bracelet into the space ring before leaving. He knew that many people were reluctant to share his killer skills with others, and in order to reduce the vigilance of others, he decided to hide his identity as a modeler. "Are you modelers so good?"

"It's not very powerful, it's just a mid-level technique." Although his tone was modest, there was still a hint of pride in his eyes.

"Wow! You're an intermediate modeler, that's amazing! Knowing that most people are extremely patient with Xiaobai, in order to have more useful information, Du Yuhan, who has read countless people, continued to put on a high hat for the other party, showing an expression of adoration, "I just saw that you released a fireball, you are not a magician, why do you cast a fireball technique?" ”

"I didn't release the fireball, I just made a fireball."

"Do?" Du Yuhan blinked.

it! Can a modeler even "do" spells? That's too against the sky!

"How do you do this?"

Kareid glanced at Du Yuhan and found that the other party only had simple worship in his eyes. He thought for a moment, flipped his right hand, and took out a small bright red round ball. "Use this."

After taking the ball, Du Yuhan put it in the palm of his hand and looked at it carefully. The small ball was only about a centimeter in diameter, and its surface was covered with various unknown runes, and there seemed to be some fiery red gas gently swaying inside, "What is this?" ”

"Yuanzhu." Worried about being blown up by Du Yuhan, Kared reached out to get the small ball back.

"Yuanzhu?" Du Yuhan put the ball back into the opponent's palm.

"Hmm. The modeler can use the library to extract the elemental attributes on the spell, and then pour it into a special container made by the inscription master, which can be made into a yuan bead. Kareed carefully put away the Fire Yuan Bead.

Hearing this, Kevin next to him interjected curiously, "Is this any different from ordinary magic scrolls?" ”

"The magic scroll is to infuse the caster's mana into the scroll, and the user does not need any rank requirements. However, the Yuan Zhu only extracts the elemental attributes of the spell, which requires the modeler to have the corresponding energy to stimulate the generation of the spell. ”

"In other words, if I want to release a fifth-order spell, then my rank must also be fifth-order, right?" Kevin had an epiphany.

"Hmm." Half-drooping eyelids to hide the impatience under his eyes, Cared pursed his lips.

Originally, he wanted to inquire about how to extract the spell element, but Du Yuhan, who was observant of words, immediately snorted and casually diverted the topic, "Wow, your bracelet looks so good, where did you get it?" ”

Clinker, hearing this, Kared's face changed suddenly, and he quickly covered his left wrist with his long sleeve, and walked forward quickly without saying a word.

Du Yuhan was stunned, not quite understanding why the other party reacted so much.

Did he say something wrong?

exchanged glances with Kevin, the other party shrugged for some reason, Du Yuhan scratched the top of his head, and followed.
