Chapter 9: The Prayer of the Strong
Later, Sivi found the bodies of several other baboons near the cherry baboon.
Most of them died in the same horrific state as the one they first found, while a few had eaten most of their bodies, leaving only inedible remains such as heads and limbs.
By probing the scene of the killing, Sivi gets good news and bad news.
The good news is that the footprints and other marks on the ground suggest that the invading predator is not a social creature, but should have only one head.
The bad news is that, judging by the amount of wreckage, the intruder's appetite can be considered terrifying. If left unchecked, it may not be long before the ecological balance on this hill will be completely destroyed by the invaders.
After continuing to wander around the mountain for a while, but still searching to no avail, Sivi returned to the mage tower halfway up the mountain. And standing at the intersection, hesitating whether to go down the mountain to pick up Elisa.
But before he could think about it, Alyssa's small figure carrying a bamboo basket appeared on the mountain road.
It seemed that there was nothing going on, and Xiwei breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
☆
At dusk, Alyssa exhaled softly, opened her eyes, and ended her more than four hours of meditation, only to find that her teacher, instead of meditating with her eyes closed as usual, was standing at the window with a little unease, looking out of the tower.
Before the blonde girl could speak, Sivi realized that she had finished meditating. He turned his face and asked, "Are you leaving?" ”
The girl nodded obediently, and the pigtails on both sides of her head also jumped with her movements, which looked very cute.
"I'll send you."
After all, it was an extraordinary time, and if something happened to his precious student, he wouldn't even have time to cry.
Sivi walked near the doorway and picked up a staff of extremely crude workmanship.
The unlucky guy in Sivi's predecessor needs to be chanted to cast spells, and this staff can help speed up spellcasting. But now that Sivi was able to cast magic silently, with this near-instantaneous technique, the staff's accelerated casting effect was of little use to him.
But this thing looks pretty sturdy, so if something happens and you don't have time to cast spells, you can't use it for hand-to-hand combat......
Sivi felt that she had thought it through.
"Eh, teacher......" Alyssa didn't expect Xiwei to say this, she didn't react for a while, she blinked her big aqua blue eyes blankly, and then a faint flush spread on her white cheeks, she lowered her head and said softly: "It's not good......
"It's okay." Now Xiwei, who was all about the mysterious predator, naturally didn't notice the little girl's beautiful appearance: "I'm your teacher." ”
In the end, Xiwei still ignored the little girl's opposition and sent her down the mountain. Fortunately, nothing happened along the way.
After explaining that Alyssa didn't have to deliver food at night, Sivi asked her to go back quickly.
Seeing the back of the little girl who seemed to be in a good mood and ran towards the village bouncing up, Xiwei was a little relieved.
Until the predator's problem was solved, he didn't dare to meditate for the time being. If the meditation is over and he opens his eyes only to find himself facing a large mouth full of sharp teeth, his little heart from modern times can't stand it.
"I don't know if my body was in the copy or stayed in this world when I played the copy......
Just as Sivi muttered and walked back to the Mage's Tower, he noticed a faint smell of blood in the air.
Keeping his guard on his toes, Sivi clenched the staff in his hand and felt it in the direction where the smell of blood came from.
I saw a mountain moose lying to the ground in a small clearing not far from the mountain road. …,
This crusade is only level 1, it is good at running, and it looks a bit like an elk, and it has almost no means of attack, and its flesh is tender and its fur is gorgeous, and it is the favorite prey of hunters who go up to the mountains to hunt.
However, the mountain moose in front of Sivi clearly did not look like a natural death. Its neck bone seemed to have been bitten off, twisted into a very awkward angle, most of its internal organs were eaten, and the flesh on its body was basically eaten away.
However, the flies, which were extremely sensitive to corpses, had not gathered much.
This shows that the mountain moose was killed not long ago, and indirectly shows that the other party eats quickly......
If the other party's foraging route was a little more off, he and Alyssa might be treated as a meal.
If it's before the soul piercing, it's good to say that Xiwei's predecessor was a genuine beginner mage, and the crusade against demonic beasts below level 10 was not a threat to him at all. Even in the face of crusade level 10 and above, it is not without the power of a battle!
But the problem is that the current Xiwei is purely a mage apprentice who is slightly stronger than ordinary people. Aside from the magic missile that comes with it, the only magic you learn is a fireball! And Nima is still secondary!
It's hard to tell who has a better chance of winning against a mysterious predator.
Why don't you just give up here and go to Alyssa's house for a while?
As soon as the thought came to him, he was strangled to death by Sivi. Although there is no such thing as a demon in the practice of magic, if there is a shadow left by something, whether it is meditation to refine the magic power or the understanding of the mysteries of magic, it will have a great impact.
To paraphrase the words of a novel, it is that the mind is not connected, how to make great progress!
"As long as you make the next trip in the early hours of this morning and get together the metal resources, then you can build the Dean Mage Tower, and there will be no worries at that time!"
Unlike the mage towers built by Xiwei himself, the real mage towers come with various magical defense measures, and some powerful mage towers can even take the initiative to attack! If the mage tower produced by the system is a little more powerful, then the mysterious predator or anything else will not be taken into account at all.
Thinking of this, Sivi barely bothered to muster up his spirits and walked vigilantly towards his stone building, which was not at all a mage tower.
After returning to the Mage Tower, he dragged all the furniture in the tower to the door and blocked the door, which was a little safe.
Then I just sat down on the ground and started meditating.
There is still a lot of time before 12 o'clock in the morning, even if you are desperately mentally damaged, you must meditate desperately and seize every minute to improve your strength!
After discovering that the super academy system he carried was useful, Xiwei subconsciously relaxed himself, feeling that as long as he relied on that system, he could quickly have results beyond ordinary people even if he didn't work hard.
However, the appearance of the predator made him completely sober up, and he understood that even if he had a system that surpassed the common sense of ordinary people, if he didn't work hard to improve his strength, he would become the ration of the beast if he was not careful!
Although the appearance of the predator put Sivi in danger, it also became an opportunity for Sivi to become stronger, which is the so-called blessing of misfortune.
