Chapter 016: Lantern Demon Grass
"Zizi~~~"
Several azure arcs of lightning descended from the sky, all of them falling on the backs of the dark-red-furred human-faced monkeys, and their bodies were convulsed and trembling by the electricity. Moreover, the hair is scorched by electricity, and the rich smell can be easily smelled from afar.
Lei Fei saw this opportunity, with the help of the rancid ground, turned into a streamer and grabbed the back of the neck of the human-faced monkey, only a few jet-black rays of light flashed, and the three human-faced monkeys all fell to the ground, splashing a stream of red blood.
"Alright, it's settled."
Grant was still a little puzzled, but when he found them all on the ground, he became surprised and excited.
"Brush!"
Grant picked up his thin sword and walked to the center of the edge of the clearing, the air was filled with the smell of blood and the smell of corpses decomposing to disgusting disgust, Grant didn't care too much, frowned and ran to the vicinity of the corpses, crouched down to check on them.
At this time, milky white energy slowly passed from their bodies.
"Sure enough, this energy has increased a lot." Grant gave a look of affirmation, he brushed away the charred charcoal-like corpse, and the chest on the front was bombarded by lightning, although it fell from the back, but because of the special penetrating power of the lightning spell, it was still handed to the front.
There was a sound of slapping and trampling blood from behind.
"What's wrong? Grant, did you know that they have weird changes in their bodies? ”
Tefir ran in front of him, stretched out his slender white hand and stroked the charred corpse of the human-faced monkey, and from its surface he could see that all the green tendons on his forehead were bulging.
"Have you ever heard of the Lantern Demon Grass?"
Grant turned his head sideways and asked Tiffel.
"I've heard that it's a rampaging and bloodthirsty toxin-like herb. As long as the person or the demonic beast eats this herb, it will increase a certain strength. But they will become more and more violent, and their sanity will fade away. Until the effects of the potion are exhausted in the body. ”
"They are generally used as a last-ditch potion, but if you take too much, it will become a deadly poison that squeezes your life force, this herb is considered hard currency in the potion market, I estimate that one gram is worth several magic stones, of course I don't know the price in the mage cluster, everything is seen from the book."
After answering these questions, Tefier also said in a probing tone, "Could it be that you think that the herb they are taking is the Lantern Demon Grass?" But you have to go through a blood test to find out. ”
"I'm sure!" A smile tugged at the corner of Grant's mouth.
Originally, he came to practice the level first, but he didn't expect to encounter a place with such a good thing as the Lamp Pang Demon Grass, and Grant moved his mind. He knew that as long as there was a slight setback, then his focus could be completely shifted to capturing demonic beasts and leveling up, and he could hire other mages to help him speed up the hunt, as long as he gave himself the last shot.
"Really? In that case, we did have an exciting experience. ”
Tefiel was also calm, she took a breath and then stood up, taking a closer look at Grant's next move, as if they were encountering something like this, they were unlikely to give up.
"Keep going! Keep in mind that the environment in which the Lantern Magic Grass grows is generally in a darker area. So go to the places near the cliffs that are covered by stones, and pay attention to caves or deep caves, even the bottom of the stones, as long as you can get six or seven grams this time. That's enough for half a year's expenses. ”
Grant got up and put away his thin sword, and was ready to act.
He summons the Witch Vulture high and makes it fly along the edges. Teleport all the locations of the dark-skinned monkeys to guess and analyze their next moves. He knew that as long as he approached the place of the Lantern Demon Grass. Then there must be a large number of mutant human-faced monkeys.
After doing this, I immediately rushed to the front.
…………
Far away in the city of Bliss outside the mage cluster.
The tall and sturdy city walls were bombarded by brilliant energy beams at this moment. Countless fireballs rained down on the soldiers on the city walls.
A young soldier stood up and looked down at the endless army of orcs and war elves below, their black pressure like a tide lapping on the shore, and the roar of battle was terrifying. As a soldier who had been guarding the city walls for four years, the young soldier had never seen so many orcs.
It was only when he was training that he encountered one or two orcs living in the mountains, like the elite orc army in front of him, who were wearing tattered black armor and spiked spears, and the siege machinery there was also hideous and terrifying from the outside.
Not only that, but the four huge vines behind are twisted together to form a giant tree, and there is a female elf wearing a green robe sitting at the top, the cuffs and legs of the robe are inlaid with a pale gold gorgeous pattern, the appearance of the female elf can be called peerless, the skin is fair and delicate, the facial features are beautiful and exquisite, and the crystal green eyes are as pure and flawless as crystals. The towering chest and the soft and slender waist form a beautiful curve, the proportion is just right, and it is a pity to add a little regret.
She sat cross-legged, her round and straight legs slender and fair, her delicate legs clinging to a pale black silk leather case, and her soft and delicate toes were barefoot, crystal like jade.
At this moment, she closed her eyes and opened them again, and the corners of her mouth slowly chanted a string of incantations.
The young soldier's heart jumped for a moment.
"Bang!"
His heart seemed to beat together with heaven and earth.
"Hans soldier, hurry up and inform Mage Melio that it's not okay here, that guy is a second-order sacrifice, and he can't resist it at his current level, I'll block it for a while first."
Mage Arnell cast spells vigorously as he yelled at the sluggish soldier.
"Okay, my lord, I'll go right away."
The young soldier bent over and almost staggered down the stairs to the inside of the city walls, he glanced at the chaotic crowd below, and understood that this time the city of Bliss might not be able to withstand their attack intact, after all, the signal for this attack was too fast, and even the news of the scouts was somewhat untrue.
Inside the fiery mage tower.
"Wow~~"
The surging fire elemental was surging wildly in the four-series elemental pool, and there was a milky white light curtain pattern next to the elemental pool, and a large number of spells were depicted on the surface.
Melio still sat at the front in his fiery red robes, constantly adjusting the time settings and distances of the spell group structures, and observing the situation outside in the pool of true vision with a hint of attention.
He had been conducting an experiment before, and when he was disrupted in the middle of the experiment, he learned that a group of orcs had actually cooperated with the war elves all the way, and all the scouts around them had been eliminated, and some of the scouts were even disguised by the war elves with magic dust.
It wasn't until the station ahead was eliminated that the entire city of Briss felt it.
"It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous. A walled city to defend the border is so much so that the enemy on the opposite side can only be discovered at a distance of more than half the distance, and I have already asked Victoria to send a team of guards to detect the matter of Wanghuo City, and at the same time send a message to the royal capital. ”
Melio's old face was expressionless, and his pupils crossed with annoyance. The message conveyed by Grant and the others made him make some preparations, but it turned out to be useless at all.
"This matter is not so simple, there must be something greasy in it, otherwise it is impossible to deceive so many things by means of war elves."
He thought as he regulated.
Suddenly, a blue crystal appeared in front of him, and a half-sized phantom was immediately projected on the surface of the diamond-shaped crystal, on which a gray-robed man was standing outside the tower.
"What's the matter?" Melio asked impatiently.
"Mentor, Senior Anel on the city wall is asking for help from here, they may not be able to resist the attacks of the elven sacrifices, they are casting a wide range of attack spells."
"A wide area attack spell? Only the second level and above can be used, how did it happen? ”
"There's a second-order priest in front."
"How is that possible?" Melio's heart was shocked, he immediately carefully closed the distance between the screens in the pool of true vision, and at the same time, his eyes narrowed and noticed that there was something wrong in the upper left corner, he immediately mobilized his mental power to keep magnifying, and when he magnified to hundreds of times, he also noticed that there was some fog blocking it.
"Crack!"
Melio controls them to crack.
Soon, the surface of the Pool of True Vision also set off a touch of blue ripples.
After a moment of convulsion, a beautiful priestess with long green hair was revealed, and with a wave of her hand, she caused two nearby vines with sarcoma to burst into a cloud of black spikes, which quickly fell into the top of the city wall, many of which sank into the soldier's eyes, chest, and arms.
Suddenly, a terrible scream erupted!
"The second-order top-level priest, Alice, who is about to step into the Great Sacrifice of Truth, oh my God, how did this monster come here, she is not the only few guardian guardians of the remaining tribes of the war elves. How could one of the several powerful council leaders of the Elven Elders' Council come here. ”
Melio's pupils shrank, and his heart sank into the water, and a cold feeling spread from the soles of his feet to his heart, and a strange feeling rose from the bottom of his heart.
He understood that whether or not Briss City could hold on was also a troublesome matter.
"Her presence makes the outcome uncertain." Melio knew that he might have to evacuate Briss City, and when he thought of the group of the Hanmo family who had left in a hurry a few days ago, he couldn't help but think of the agreement with Grant.
"Zizi~~"
Melio pulls the communication glyph on his left arm.
"What's the matter? Mage Melio? The voice on the other side seemed a little confused and incomprehensible.
"Orcs and war elves are attacking the city, and I think I might get out of here. How can there be some rustling sound next to you, being in the woods? ”
"It's nothing, I'm looking for Lantern Demon Grass, have all the people of the Hanmo family left?" (To be continued.) )
