Chapter 31: Ascending the Tower
?? With the support of the mountain, Chen Jian is now not afraid of the sky and the earth, and he is just waiting for leisure, but in order to avoid trouble, he still formed an adventure team of four people and one cat.
The main reason is that Chariel is troublesome, she is not interested in protecting a large number of people to go on adventures, so hurry up and get it done, so that she can go back early to continue reading comics and playing games.
So Chen Blade, Jiang Jinjiu, Jona and the Druid Nelson of the Earth Church and the reluctant Meow bodyguard formed a team and marched towards the Magic Tower.
Sure enough, with the little tree spirit, there was no danger along the way, and when passing by the corpse of the earth dragon, Chen Jian also slowed down, holding the moonlight brand desert eagle, and moved forward cautiously, for fear that two mud giants would suddenly appear again.
Unexpectedly, the meow guard behind him flew up and kicked Chen Jian directly to the gate of the magic tower.
"Hurry, let the little guy open the door." Charil said impatiently.
Chen Jian patted the dust on his body helplessly while lifting the little tree spirit.
"Gru, home." The little tree spirit reached out a branch and touched the gate.
The gate of the magic tower glowed green, and in the light, the gate that had been a whole rock quickly disintegrated and disappeared. Reveal the passage of the black hole behind it.
"Please." With a strong bodyguard here, Chen Jian certainly wouldn't be stupid enough to take the lead as a pathfinder.
Chariel raised his head and walked into the gate with the cat on his toes, and Chen Jian and the other four immediately followed and walked in together.
After the four of them entered, the green light disappeared, and the rock gate reappeared, tightly sealed.
Chen Jian released a light technique, and he could clearly see that the surrounding area was a messy hall.
The walls are full of all kinds of burning, frozen, and broken spell traces, although they look fierce, but in terms of destruction, they are all low-level spells, and they are not very powerful.
"Gru, master, Gru, master." The little tree spirit pointed to the top of the tower with a branch.
The four of them found the stairs and continued to climb the tower, as if they had broken into a botanical garden, where everything from furniture to daily necessities was made of plants.
But now these living plants are like crazy, attacking all creatures that come near them, regardless of whether they are friends or enemies.
For example, Chen Jian passed by a flower pot, and the small flowers in it would desperately spit pollen at him. But Chen Jian tested it, and this pollen is non-toxic and harmless.
It's like if you are walking on the road and a child suddenly spits on you, but the others are so small that they can't spit on you, what can you do but walk away angrily and funny.
Another example is when Jona sees a chair and wants to sit on it, but it falls down on its own, not only does it fall to the ground, but a chair leg becomes longer and wants to trip Jona, but how can a high-level thief, a treasure hunter trip over a chair leg, she jumps lightly and steps over the chair to continue moving.
Along the way, this kind of ridiculous attacks emerged one after another, and Chen Jian and the others just found it troublesome and funny, but it was different for the little tree spirit.
It was broken to its heart that these had been its companions in the past, but now they had turned a deaf ear to its cries and attacked it.
Breaking through the living area on the second floor, the experimental area on the third floor is no longer the kind of ordinary plants that have no lethality, and all kinds of strange-shaped magic plants have appeared.
A bite of a man-eating flower that can swallow a blade, a whip-like claw-like murderous vine, a mushroom sprayed with poisonous mist, and a huge nest of melons smashed down from the ceiling.
At this time, Chen Blade's pistol is useless, and the demon plant has no fatal weakness that can hit it with one hit, even if it shoots the nest melon full of holes, it still jumps and chases you and smashes it.
It's better to turn it into a kitchen knife to make it more slippery and smoother.
The main force of the battle is still the colorful fire bear summoned by Jiang Jinjiu and Nelson.
And Jona and Chariel, one cheered and shouted 666 in the back, and the other paddled the whole way to hit soy sauce.
When Chen Jian strongly condemned the behavior of Meow's bodyguards who did not work, Charier said righteously:
"So the shrimp soldiers and crabs will also need me to make a move? Will I be guarding all your adventures from now on? What we need is a strong partner to join the divine system, not a child who needs a babysitter. ”
Chen Jian had nothing to say about these words, so he could only wave his knife and fight again.
Break through all the way, the library on the fourth floor, the magic planting garden on the fifth floor, and the elemental energy pool on the sixth floor.
Until the sixth floor, the rampaging elemental energy was already on the verge of exploding, and Chariel had to take action to stabilize the magic element here, so he couldn't get out.
The group went up to the seventh floor, and Chen Jian made up his mind, if he couldn't beat the boss, he would retreat to the sixth floor, lure the enemy down, and then let the meow god recruit the tail.
On the seventh floor is a large semi-terraced room, with only a large tree standing alone in the center of the room.
The roots of the tree pierced the floor and stretched to the lower floor, and the violent elemental energy was drawn up from below, and a figure could be faintly seen in the canopy.
"Gru, master, Gru, here." The little tree spirit excitedly broke free of Chen Blade's palm and rolled close to the big tree.
Because the elemental energy pool on the sixth floor has been controlled by Chariel, the energy absorbed from the roots of the tree is becoming scarcer and rarer, and the figure in the canopy seems to have awakened and raised its head.
It was a face full of madness and hideousness, his skin mottled and withered like a century-old tree, and his lower body had merged with the trunk.
"Who are you? Did Edgar send you? Hahahaha, it's late, I'm already going to succeed! The weirdo laughed maniacally.
The little tree spirit climbed up to the canopy and pulled the strange man desperately, trying to pull him out of the trunk, but to no avail.
The weirdo kept talking to himself, and although he couldn't understand what he was saying, two names appeared frequently, one was Edgar, and the mention of this name made him more and more crazy and irritable. The other name was Penny, and the mention of that name made him calm and peaceful.
"He doesn't seem to have the ability to attack." Jona threw some weapons at the tree, but although she couldn't hurt the strange tree, she didn't fight back.
Chen Jian tried to get closer while shouting Penny's name to the stranger.
After walking under the tree, Chen Jian carefully touched the big tree, and suddenly a wave of magical energy fell asleep along the big tree and connected to Chen Jian's body.
Chen Jian only felt that it was dark in front of him, and suddenly a voice sounded.
"My name is Dave. Smith, I am the son of a farmer, and I used to be a red-robed mage. ”
