Chapter 020: The Root of the Ancient Demon Tree

A pungent stench wafted from the entrance of the cave.

In the pitch-black space, a blue circle shield suddenly appeared, firmly enveloping the entrance of the cave.

"Smack!"

In the next second, a white light appeared.

"Alright, a forbidden sound enchantment has been cast. The sights and sounds that appear here will not reach the inside, and now we can be very relieved. Beat, follow me to the front, I can sense something is wrong there. ”

Grant gradually appeared in the darkness, his fair face burning into the distance. Judging from the information and results of the daytime detection technique, he was not wrong, there must be something he urgently needed in front of him.

"Grant, can you tell me what is attracting you? All day long, all I know is that you can vaguely feel that there is a very strange secret. However, I found nothing. ”

"Don't worry, calm down." Grant picked up his sword and cautiously walked forward.

By the time they reached the fork, the viscous liquid had already been cleaned by the knights, revealing the original cave scenery, but it was still full of stench due to the strong smell of the slime after its death. On the rugged ground, there are still many traces and shadows from the daytime attack, deep inside.

"Detect!"

Grant increases perception and does not perceive valid information. But that dark feeling became clearer and clearer.

"Yes, this should be the place. The slime was the most powerful from radiation here, and when the slime left here, its strength weakened. I can tell that this is it. “

Grant muttered to himself, bending down and picking up the Meteor Sword. A sharp blade that can easily cut through hard armor. Ground like this is a no-brainer, and the only nuisance is that Grant is worried that he'll hit here later. There will be a wide range of elemental fluctuations. Ivey, a few of them could feel it clearly.

"Beate, if there is an elemental disorder later. You'd better use your mental power to control nearby elemental particles and stabilize them. Don't have any strange effects. Yes, these are five bottles of primary mental power recovery potion, and you only need to maintain stability at that time. Whether or not you can get what is inside this time is up to you. “

"Can you tell me what it is?" Beate was a little depressed, and after taking the five bottles of potion, he asked. He waited for Grant's answer for a day, but he still didn't say anything.

"I'm not sure, I'll talk about it when I get it out." Grant shook his head. Dig into the contents with a focused expression.

"Dingdingding......dingding"

The ground is full of ore, but it's just plain iron ore, like enchanted metal ore, on both sides of the walls, and it's extremely hard.

Dozens of minutes later.

A large hole was dug in the ground, about a meter wide, and it was black and pressing.

After Grant looked at it, he used detection to expand his perception, but there was still no way to find anything.

"Go on!"

He didn't give up, and another hour passed. 2 hours ......

It wasn't until the third hour later that Grant's entire body was submerged in it. He kept digging quickly with the Meteor Sword, and for convenience, the Desert Serpent and Reffy all participated in the excavation.

"It's coming. It's almost ......"

Grant looked eager, and when he dug to a certain extent, his face was happy. Hurriedly raised his head and responded, "Beate." I'm going to open this place later, remember to stabilize the circle. Be sure to stabilize and control elemental particles. If they are found by Ivey, it will not be of our benefit. ”

"Understood. I don't want anything right now. Just want to see what the hell is in there that makes you mysterious. ”

"Then you're ready, I'm going to get started."

Grant gripped the hilt of his sword and drilled hard, and suddenly a large amount of green mist filled the air. Clouds of solid mist spread all around, firmly controlling itself.

The mist created an inexplicable wind that caused Grant's long hair to fly upwards and sway back and forth.

"Beate, hurry up!"

"I understand, it's ready. Next, let's get started. ”

Beate took a deep breath and moved her lips slightly. His staff fell abruptly, and a half-sized glass cover trapped the outside world. When the fog touches, the glass cover melts rapidly like spring snow, and there is no way to last even a trace of existence.

"No, I can't stop it, it can only last for a minute. The fog just can't get trapped. Beate's face changed, he didn't expect that the fog without human control could have such power, and he was surprised for a while.

Grant was a little anxious, thought about it, and threw out the small rune array that had been refined before to delay time. It's something made with the tools given to the old magician who is proficient in potions. The power is not too small.

Twelve golden circles hovered in the sky, quickly spinning into columns of golden light. They form a triangle and fall on three points of the green mist. Suddenly, there was a golden light, forming a golden web to bind the green mist, so that it did not spread.

"You hold on first, I'll take the contents in. The fog will slowly disappear. ”

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

Beate gritted her teeth and kept urging her mental power to maintain the enchantment. The spellcasting skills of the Binding Enchantment are not too advanced. As long as you keep instilling mental power. to maintain the enchantment. Consumption is significant. Even a second-order mage didn't dare to say how far he could hold on.

Get your hands, get your hands, get your hands......

With this thought in Grant's mind, he forcibly bent down and reached out to touch something. I saw a cloud of dazzling green light in the pit, long, because the light could not discern anything.

Grant held his breath and held it down again.

"Detect!" Grant's first thought.

"Roots of the Ancient Demon Tree (Rare): The roots left over from the Ancient Demon Tree, which have items for making plants."

Thinking of this, Grant took a breath, put the root of the demon tree into the reserve space, and cast a binding enchantment, trying to trap the surrounding fog, causing it to slowly dissipate and gradually thin.

It wasn't until an hour later that it was completely done.

Grant got up and told Refe and the desert snake man to bury the dirt in the pit. At the same time, he walked to the edge of the sharp stone and sat down, looked at Beate, and smiled: "Thank you." ”

"Don't say thank you, can you tell me what's in there? I've waited until now, just to know what's inside. You tell me. ”

"The root of the dryad, a good thing worth six thousand demonic stones."

"What...... Six...... Six thousand Magic Stones. Beate's eyes widened, full of disbelief.

After Grant smiled bitterly, he also explained: "However, you understand that it is me who contributed this time, and you are the auxiliary." I can give you fifteen hundred of these six thousand magic stones, how about it? ”

"I'm already grateful, after all, if you say two thousand magic stones. I can't help it. If you can tell me the value of this item and its value, you will treat me as a friend. Naturally, I don't have any other opinions. ”

"I'll give it to you when I'm done redeeming." Grant sat next to him and said. (To be continued.) )
