Chapter 871: Shadow Demon

The shadow plane is the common shadow of all planes in the entire multiverse, because of the characteristics of shadows, although this world is also rich in species and resources, it is not as colorful as the main material world.

There will always be only two colors in this magical place – black and white!

Black is pure black that does not even have reflections, and white is pure white without any flaws.

In this world, the boundaries between black and white are so clear and precise that only outsiders can possess a wide variety of brilliant colors.

And these colors are destined to make all outsiders look out of place in the world of shadows.

"Billions of years have passed, and the world of shadows is still the same black and white as Vedracia remembers, and nothing seems to have changed here."

Hiding his legendary aura with all his might, he stepped on the ground under his feet with his boots, and watched the pitch-black dust rise in the dead space and then simply fall without the slightest breeze, and the punk was sure that he had entered the shadow plane.

However, although it was the first time to visit this notoriously strange place, the legendary mage was no stranger to this world of only black and white.

During Netheril's time, even the shadow of the eternal night was part of the "expansion" of the Great Arcanes, and even the "old pedant" of Vedracia had built a magic tower here to oversee the mining and collection of some resources, so Punk had reason to think that his knowledge of the shadow plane was no less than that of an ordinary legendary stalker.

For example, when he was in the official level, he had captured a group of "shadow maggots" from the shadow plane for experiments, and now, the white fern spellcaster growing next to the black soil could recognize its name at a glance, and even knew that the black and white crustacean giant beetle, which was looking down and chewing plant leaves, and was similar in size to a small wild boar, was a juvenile Edus worm............

So, while the Endless Shadows always hide countless mysteries and gloom, the caster is still confident in his actions in this "familiar" world.

"The shadows hide secrets and know secrets, Owen, how long can you be silent in this darkness as you badly wounded and dying?"

There was a hint of coldness in his eyes, and the punk expression indifferently took out a piece of the shadow demon's tail feathers from the storage ring.

Next, he was ready to begin trying to predict the location of the "Inscription Sage".

Although the entire shadow world is almost boundless, and it is almost like looking for a needle in a haystack for an ordinary legendary professional to find a target here, the careful "guild" has already demarcated an area that is relatively easy for the five hunters to track down - "Andokra".

The name of this place is a transliteration of the name of the place "Shadow Silence", and if translated literally into the lingua franca, it means "the sixth forest of white trees".

While Andokla isn't a well-known area, it's just a small corner of the vast Sea of Trees in the Shadow Plane, but with a place name, it's much easier for Legendary Spellcasters to use prophecy spells to find out where to go.

At this moment, in the midst of the eternal night, in a white forest in the region of Amokala............

"Boom"

"Carat, carat, thanks carat, thanks carat"~

With many high-pitched, dense cheers of joy and a low, painful roar, a huge creature five meters high, three meters wide, and six meters long collapsed heavily in a forest of white trees.

It was a large adult "Edus Worm", but its appearance was miserable and terrifying, and at this time a large dense and thumb-sized deep hole had been excavated from the thick black and white carapace of its back, and the white blood oozed out a lot at the edge of the hole, and the pitch-black fern bushes under the worm's body were stained white by the blood.

And from the holes that clearly penetrated deep into the worm's body, humanoid goblins with thin arms and legs, no more than the size of fingers, were flying out one after another.

Each of them is a beautiful girl's figure, but there is no gender feature on the pure white body without clothing, the pitch-black wings on the back, the corner of the mouth showing a little sharp tiger teeth, and the pair of pure black eyes that are bright all prove that they are not ordinary little goblins.

And...... The most conspicuous part of these little ones is the black "tail" that is as long as their bodies and resembles a bird's feather.

In this perennial silence of the forest, the cheer of "Thanks to Carat" like the chirping of larks is undoubtedly the singing of these little goblins.

If Punk was here, he would be able to recognize it at a glance, and these somewhat special black and white goblins are one of the rare species unique to the Shadow Plane - "Shadow Demons"!

Shadow Demons are very magical creatures, they look like beautiful maidens but have no usual gender, their souls do not exist in the mind but live on that feather-like tail, and they like to rely on a group of spell-like talents called "Shadow Bites" to hunt large prey, after discovering the prey, these creatures that are no more than the size of a finger will burrow into the prey in groups and destroy it, and the large prey that is killed usually becomes a "feasting place" for an entire group of Shadow Demon and was eaten into empty shells, and this terrifying-looking hunting method also earned the shadow demons the slanderous title of "demon goblin" for a time.

But in reality, these little creatures who live in the shadow plane are basically intelligent creatures of the good faction, and they even like to rescue the hapless travelers who are lost in the White Tree Forest, and only when hunting or facing enemies will the shadow demons show their fangs and fangs that live in symbiosis with the shadows.

Of course, for most legendary spellcasters, only valuable creatures are worth studying, and the fact that the Shadow Demons have been studied in such detail a long time ago is a testament to their worth.

Although it is not a precious resource, the soul of the shadow demon is indeed the same basic "raw material" that can be processed into legendary materials as the souls of ordinary intelligent creatures, and due to the near-perfect affinity for shadow energy, the legendary alchemist with good means can also make the tail feathers of the shadow demon into legendary casting materials, for example, the tail feathers used by punk before were synthesized and refined with the crystallization of many shadow demon tails and shadow laws.

It's just that due to the small number of "clever alchemists" in this era, the tail feathers of the shadow demon gradually lost their original good value, and even eventually became "ordinary formal-level magic materials", and this race of magical creatures, which has been quite rare since ancient times, was able to enjoy a rare quiet in the world of shadows.

However............ It is gold that cannot avoid shining brightly, and valuable things will one day be looked at again.

For example, now, the poor little goblins who have been living peacefully in the Andokla Forest for an unknown number of years have unfortunately met an "old mage" who is in a hurry to go to the doctor!

Their "intrinsic" value has once again brought the curse to the side.
