Chapter Fifty-Five: The Man-Eating Tree of Sodara

Attacked by illusion?

Morin was shocked.

"What's going on?" Morin asked in his mind.

"Ding! The subject is suspected of inhaling hallucinogenic gas!"

"Suspected of inhaling hallucinogenic gas?" Morin's heart moved, thinking of the strange sweet smell he had felt when he first entered.

He stared at him slightly, ignoring what he saw Kane and Parton rushing up in front of him, as if he hadn't seen it at all.

The palm of his hand slowly stretched out, and Mo Lin gently grasped the thorn blood chapter on his chest.

The Thorn Blood Seal has the ability to spell illusions, which can break illusions.

He spat a few words out of his mouth.

"Von Mengaye!"

Suddenly, a faint red light emanated from his hand, spreading instantly, enveloping Mo Lin's whole body.

Mo Lin only felt that his mind was clear, and what was in front of him blurred for a moment, and then everything became clear.

The Paton and Kane in front of him had disappeared, and in front of him was a dark cave, and in the middle of the cave, there was a strange tree.

The tree looked strange, and although it looked like a tree, it had colorful tentacles that kept swimming like an octopus, and laughter was heard from time to time.

"Hee-hee-hee......"

"Hah...... Ha ha. ”

The sound of the tree was constantly changing, sometimes it was a man's voice, sometimes a woman's voice, sometimes an old man, sometimes a child.

Merlin glanced at the tree, and his face couldn't help but show a look of doubt.

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"It's ...... The Sodara Man-Eating Tree, which uses illusion to confuse travelers and pure creatures in the forest, and then grows by devouring flesh and blood!"

Mo Lin frowned slightly, fortunately he had read a lot of information in the library area of the dark forest, so he knew about the man-eating tree in front of him, which was very difficult to see.

The number of man-eating trees in Sodara is very scarce, and the most important thing is that it grows in a peculiar way, which can only grow naturally, and is very difficult to cultivate, if not at all.

Moreover, each cannibal tree will bear fruit, and the fruit of each cannibal tree has a different miraculous effect.

The fruit of the Cannibal Tree has different effects, it may have a great effect on human wizards, or it may not be suitable for the human race at all, only for elves and other races in the Endless Forest, but even this is enough, enough to make many wizards crazy about it.

Morin looked at the unripe half-red fruits on the octopus's hands, and looked at the many human corpses on the ground, and his heart suddenly became clear.

No wonder Paton wanted a large number of living people, it turned out that he wanted to use living people to cultivate the Sodara Man-eating Tree.

"In this way, this Sodara cannibal tree has a very strong effect on Paton, no wonder he did such a thing. Maureen knew what was going on.

It's just that I don't know if the Sodara Man-Eating Tree has any effect on him.

This is possible, after all, wizards can be said to be strange, all kinds of witchcraft structures, energy erosion, body modification, experimental conjectures, will make wizards go on different paths, so, for some wizards, things that are regarded as treasures, but in the eyes of others, there may be no value, and they are completely waste.

"Let's take a look. ”

Thinking so, Merlin reached out and slowly grabbed a branch.

Sensing someone approaching, the laughter on the cannibal tree grew stronger, and the smell of hallucinations grew stronger, but Morin was not moved in the slightest.

He slowly reached out and grabbed a twig in his hand.

"Crunch!"

There was a strong force in the hand, and the branch like the tentacle of the octopus kept struggling, and it was still wet with mucus, like a fierce giant python, if you didn't pay attention, it was possible to let this branch come out directly.

The expression on Morin's face remained the same, his lips twitched slightly, and puffs of black smoke came out of his hands, enveloping the octopus tentacle-like twig in it.

"Ah~~"

The cannibal tree let out a cry of pain, and the octopus branches all over its body rushed towards Morin, which looked very scary, but a faint aura of dark energy particles appeared on the surface of Merlin's side, blocking all the octopus tentacles from the outside.

He put the octopus tentacle in his hand in front of his eyes and watched it carefully.

At this time, the octopus branch in Morin's hand had turned into a normal branch, yellowish and slightly dry, and a small pale red fruit was on the top of the branch.

"Chip, analysis!"

A thin black needle condensed from dark energy particles appeared on Morin's finger, gently piercing the pale red fruit, and at the same time, his heart moved, giving such an order.

"Ding! Mission in progress!"

"Unknown fruit, type: unknown, function: can greatly increase the speed of spiritual power rune meditation and reduce the condensation time of the rune array!"

"What!" Originally, Morin was just listening casually, but after hearing the sound of the chip, he was shocked all of a sudden.

Can it greatly increase the speed of spiritual power rune meditation and reduce the condensation time of the rune array?

This is simply good news for the current Morin.

You must know that according to the chip's estimate, it will take him nearly six years to be able to meditate on the last twelve spiritual power runes, condense the rune array, and become a third-class apprentice.

But now, with the effect of the Sodara Man-eating Tree, he can completely advance it by a large margin.

"I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it. Morin muttered to himself, with unconcealed joy in his eyes.

It's no wonder that Paton is desperate to feed the cannibal tree with living people, just because, the fruit of this cannibal tree dares to have such a powerful effect on the condensation of spiritual power runes, if other wizard apprentices knew about it, they would probably do the same, or even more crazy.

"Chip, analyze it, if I start now, I use the fruit of the Sodara Man-Eating Tree for auxiliary meditation, then, how long will it take me to become a third-class apprentice. ”

Morin took a deep breath and gave such a task.

"Ding! Mission has been established!"

"Mission in progress!"

"Expected time for the subject to become a third-class apprentice: two months!"

"Two months......," Morin whispered.

It takes almost six years to take the fruit of the Sodara man-eating tree without it, and it only takes two months to take the fruit of the Sodara man-eating tree.

This is simply an asymmetrical choice.

Morin's eyes lit up slightly, and he already knew what to do.

"It just so happens that there are a lot of captives who rebelled with Viscount Ferron this time, and besides, in the territory of the Marquis of Umas, there are all kinds of hooligans and criminals, there should be a lot of them......" Merlin said softly, his tone revealing a sense of determination.

He didn't want to wait six years.

Glancing back at the squirming Saurara Man-Eating Tree, which was covered with octopus tentacles, Morin's heart moved, his lips kept moving, and he recited the witchcraft incantation, and at the same time gestured to make a spell casting gesture.

Circles of dark energy particles emanated from his hands, surging incessantly, enveloping the Sodara Man-eating Tree in it.

Immediately, the dark energy particles moved slightly, forming a strange witch array, and after a flash of light, the surroundings calmed down again, and the witch array was completely invisible, as if it had disappeared.

"With this simple cover-up witch array, it can be regarded as barely covering up. ”

Morin looked at the Sodara cannibal tree inside, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, and he smiled.

Then Maureen turned his head and looked around.

There are also things from Paton here, Paton was born in the Blue Ring, and it seems that his status is not low, and the things he left behind are still very valuable.

Hundreds of magic stones, some basic subject knowledge, a few witchcraft templates, some strange materials, and other than that, some miscellaneous things.

"Not bad. ”

Merlin took the silk bag containing the magic stone in his hand and tossed it gently, a smile appeared on his face.

Along the way, in addition to some basic essential potions left for himself, Mo Lin bought almost all the other basic potions, and correspondingly, he got a lot of magic stones.

Coupled with the magic stones obtained from Paton this time, there are about 6,000 magic stones on Morin's body now.

"In the apprenticeship stage, I should be considered to have no shortage of magic stones. ”

Maureen smiled, with a sigh.

Suddenly, his gaze fell on a book among the miscellaneous items.

Somehow, Maureen felt familiar.

"What is this?" said Morin, picking up the book.

Wow!

The book floated in the air, glowing, and suddenly opened on its own.

Maureen was caught off guard, shrouded in the faint light of the book.

Page after page turned at a high speed, making a loud sound.

"Damn, what is this!"

Mo Lin suddenly found that there were some more things on his body, thin silver threads, which kept appearing around him.

Suddenly, those silver threads trembled, and they shot out one by one, as if forming a substance, and then quickly rushed to his forehead.

Airplanes.

The silver thin line moved, submerged into the original formation of the two rune arrays, intertwined and entwined, and actually merged with the two rune arrays, indistinguishable from each other.

"Holy!" Morin almost frightened.

You know, those two-fold rune arrays are the foundation of his first-class apprentice and second-class apprentice, and they are his real foundation, but now, there are some weird silver lines fused with his rune array, how can he not be frightened.

"Damn it!"

Mo Lin hurriedly concentrated his mind to perceive the two runes, but he didn't find anything abnormal, and the two runes were intact, as if nothing had happened.

"Chip, scan my whole body, and clear it as soon as there is an abnormal state!" Morin's face was ugly, and he gave such an order.

"Ding! Mission has been established!"

"Mission in progress!"

"Ding! There is no abnormality in the main body!"

"Nothing abnormal?" Morin's face was gloomy.

At this moment, the sound of the chip sounded.

"Ding! A large amount of data entry has been detected, is it organized?"

"Tidy up. Merlin thought for a moment and nodded.

"Ding!

"Ding! The first order of the mission has begun, and the preliminary analysis is underway, and the estimated time is 41 days!"

"First Order Mission?" Merlin was stunned, and then understood what the First Order Mission was, those mysterious lines and totems related to wizards in ancient times.

Mo Lin immediately thought of the abnormal situation just now, those mysterious lines that appeared on the surface of his body, rushed into the rune array on his forehead, and the silver thin lines that strangely fused with the rune array.

"It's only been about forty days, and I've waited for it. ”

Merlin was silent, and after a long time, his low voice slowly came.

Looking at the books on the ground, Morin already understood, it is estimated that Paton, like George, also inadvertently got some books related to ancient wizards, but he couldn't understand it, so he was still in the miscellaneous items.

But I didn't expect that such a book would have extraordinary significance for Morin.

Looking around again, Merlin turned and walked outside.

By the time he returned to Viscount Ferron's stronghold, the Marquis of Umas had pacified everything, the whole stronghold was brightly lit, the soldiers walked around with pine resin torches, shouting incessantly, and the captives were on their knees, not daring to move.

"Mr. Morin. ”

When Marquis Umas saw Morin, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly walked over.

"Umas, I want to live here in the future and not be disturbed again. Morin looked at Umas and said straight to the point.

"Mr. Morin, you ......" Umas felt a sudden feeling in his heart, and suddenly had a very bad feeling.

"I just wanted to live here. ”

Maureen looked at Umas and smiled slightly.

It seems that this marquis will subconsciously be too careful.

That's right, after all, he just helped Umas put down the rebellion, and it was normal for Marquis Umas to think of other aspects.

"I just wanted to stay here. Maureen smiled and reiterated.

Marquis Umas looked at Morin, and after a moment, suddenly laughed, and said, "Yes, Mr. Morin. ”

"Absolutely. ”

The Marquis's voice sounded sincere.

Many people in the territory talked about what happened that night, and they kept talking about it, and even that night, they were made up in different versions.

After all, many people saw the Marquis's guards rushing out of Winter City overnight that night, which was really big news.

However, the most surprising thing is that after the extermination of Viscount Ferron, the Marquis of Umas suddenly announced that a mysterious young man would be canonized as a nobleman and awarded him a knighthood.

The original Viscount of Faeron is gone, and now a new Viscount has appeared, Viscount Olsen.

Maureen Olsen.

Soon, the name of the viscount was known, and they kept speculating about why he was awarded the title of viscount by the marquis.

Unlike other nobles, the mysterious Viscount Olsen did not hold banquets, did not participate in various activities of high society, and did not like to communicate with various celebrities and nobles, but only liked to stay in a mountain in the fiefdom and do some strange things.

The Marquis took many of the criminals and ruffians in the fiefdom and took them to the territory of Viscount Olsen, not knowing what they were doing, but after they left, they did not return.

It was also discovered that many of the soldiers who rebelled with Viscount Feron were also missing.

Some people complained about this and felt that they should be thoroughly investigated, but they were all suppressed by the Marquis of Umas with strong means, or those who had micro-complaints suddenly disappeared.

So no one talked about it anymore.

Moreover, many hooligans and criminals have been taken away, which has made the security in the territory much better, which is also a good thing for many ordinary people.

Of course, everyone knew that it all had to do with the Viscount's sudden appearance.

Mixed with people's different conjectures, gradually, this Viscount Olsen, in the eyes of the people, became mysterious.
