Chapter 092: Bitter Lilac Forest

Bitter Lilac Forest, located in the northwest of Bitter Lilac City.

The forest is very wide, bordering the Bitter Lilac Sea in the south and the Giant Territory, the Beast Alliance Continent, and the Dwarf Alliance Continent in the northwest.

The city of Bitter Lilac has boats that reach the Bitter Lilac Forest.

After the wind fell sail, the empty Wuji, and Xiao Xuemei got off the boat, they reorganized a little, and then headed for the depths of the forest, and the destination of the three of them was the mountain area on the other side of the forest river, Half Moon Ridge.

The lilac forest is extremely lush, and the further you go inside, the more difficult the road becomes, and the fog in the forest begins to get worse.

Now that the sun had set, an oppressive atmosphere had begun to envelop the forest.

Even though it was still on the edge of the forest, the atmosphere was too quiet for the three of them to feel a little uncomfortable.

The silence of the forest is filled with an air of mystery and restlessness.

Xiao Xuemei deliberately stopped: "Do you think that we have been going around in circles since this afternoon? We seem to have been here in the morning, but after a day of walking, we actually returned to the same place." ”

Feng Luofan looked around carefully, and also felt weird.

"We're really going around in circles, and it's like we've fallen into someone else's design trap. Every plant and tree here is different, and a sense of anger permeates the forest, as if countless pairs of eyes are looking at us, it seems that we should not have entered this holy place, it seems that it does not like to be disturbed by outsiders. Xiao Xuemei said.

The Bitter Lilac Forest, where there is an obvious connection with the Land of Ruins, where the cries of demons can be heard at night, and the breath of demons can be felt at night, but the humanoids on the other side of the Land of Ruins cannot spend the night. So some people call the bitter lilac forest a holy place.

"I suspect that the forest has a will and a mind of its own, that it is manipulating the path we are taking, that it wants to trap us here! All the way we can keep trying to squeeze us to the right hand side, so much so that we keep going in an arc. The wind fell and the sail muttered.

"This forest is terrifying, isn't it?!" Kong Wuji shook his body, his hair standing on end.

Another reason why the Lilac Forest is known as a sacred place is because there are many ancient ruins here, and there may be treasures buried inside. The monsters here are rarer, and the cores obtained are even more valuable. If you're lucky, you can earn enough money for a year's worth of tuition by going hunting in this forest. But despite being called a holy place, few people dared to go deep into this forest, what if those demons had already invaded this forest?

Feng Luofan watched every move around her, tightly clutching the dagger in her hand, ready to deal with sudden danger at any time, Xiao Xuemei also clenched her long sword and increased her vigilance.

Because it was already dark and there was an unexpected crisis lurking around, the three of them decided to rest on the spot for the night and wait for dawn to make plans.

Three people take turns on duty to prevent monster attacks.

By the time the wind set sails in the middle of the night, the moonlight was surprisingly bright, so much so that he could clearly see his surroundings.

A rustling sound rang all the way around, like the whispers of ghosts. Is this because of Day of the Dead?

Feng Luofan was surprised to find that the roots and bearded stems of trees and wild flowers covered with stingers that lurked on the ground in all directions had unmercilessly occupied all the paths that could be passed during the day, and the thorns that spread all over the four fields would make the road even more difficult.

Although there are many kinds of strange animals and birds in the forest, there is no noise at night, and the tranquility is surprising, like a palace of death, as if there are always countless pairs of ghostly eyes watching the trespassers' every move, waiting for the best time to eat them.

In the second half of the night, the night wind kept echoing in the forest, beating the leaves, like the roar of the old man of time, the wind and the sail couldn't help but stand up and look around, because he vaguely saw a black figure that seemed to be moving slowly not far away.

Feng Luofan's heartbeat accelerated violently, it could be that it was a giant of the Giant Tribe, because that figure was very tall. The wind and sails walked forward a little, only to find that there were only tall ancient trees, their towering branches stretching out into the night sky, and the moonlight reflected their bodies standing up to the sky.

In the impression of the wind falling sails, he did see the moving figure, but the moment he got up, those black shadows suddenly disappeared.

As the night wore on, the fog in the forest began to gather and block out the moonlight.

The forest was covered in a thin fog before dawn, as if it was deliberately trying to hide its own evil little secrets, making it difficult to detect the true face of the unusual noise around it, and from time to time strange noises or movements would come from a distance like crescendo silver bells. The intricately intertwined old Teng crawled all over the ground, shrubs, and tree trunks, like the black withered arms of the old witch, ready to grasp the timid and cowardly souls of the past creatures at any moment.

In the early morning, the wind and sails still buzzed in their ears, I don't know if it was their own illusion or the sound of the forest itself, and the trees seemed to be talking to each other, talking and laughing about the secret of the ulterior motives.

It was finally dawn, the fog had lifted, and the three of them were on their way again.

This time, the wind fell and sailed with a heart's eye and made a mark along the road.

This time, the three of them found that this time it was different from yesterday, the road began to press them in the direction of their left hand, and all but this one was occupied by thorns and shoulder-length bushes. These scenes were completely different from what I saw yesterday, as if overnight, the forest had changed its layout, and there were huge piles of trees where they shouldn't be.

"Oh hell, it looks like we've offended the Jungle Guardian here, so he's playing tricks on us like that!" said Ku Wuji indignantly.

"That's got to be a jungle guard!" Xiao Xuemei said, looking at the old trees on both sides of the road.

"I'm afraid we'll be back to where we are after a day's walk! If we go on like this, the whole Day of the Dead holiday will be wasted, and we might as well go hunting in the Ruins Lands. Ku Wuji said worriedly.

Feng Luofan was not listening to the two of them, for he heard a strange noise, coming from the jungle not far away. When the sound reached his ears, he felt a strong tremor in his heart, as if he had been struck in the heart by a sudden hammer.

Xiao Xuemei also seemed to hear this strange sound, and listened quietly. The Void raised his head to the sky above him, which was shattered by the branches and leaves of the ancient trees.

"What was that sound just now? It sounded like the cry of some kind of beast. Feng Luofan asked, looking at Kong Wuji, who was staring at the sky.

Before they could speak, a huge figure swept across the branches and leaves that blocked their view, and came into everyone's eyes, hovering over the sky above them.

"That's the Giant Eagle, let's move on. Xiao Xuemei looked at the flying figure.

"But the sound of that giant eagle can't be like this!" said Feng Luofan, "It should be the sound of some kind of giant beast on the ground, let's go and see!"

The wind and sail group quickened their pace and sneaked through the forest.

The voice of the giant beast grew louder and louder, and there was a heart-rending sound, it turned out to be a reptilian beast, the Ulla Dragon!

Countless monsters in the forest fled from their caves and scurried in terror in the forest, they were frightened by the sound of the dragon and let out hysterical screams, and the whole forest suddenly became chaotic and boiling.

The dragon of Ulla is not very powerful, but he is the king of speed, and has the magic to control the storm.

Wind Falling Sail discovered that the Ula dragon was hunting a bald deer in the dense forest, but due to the dense woods, the speed of the Ula dragon was greatly limited, allowing Wind Falling Sail and his party to catch up.

"Let's work together to kill this dragon!" Xiao Xuemei jumped up the tree and leaped hard, arousing all the domineering spirit of the swordsman, the tight armor shone softly in the sunlight, her eyes flashed with a whirlwind of transparent graphics, and the long sword in her hand slashed out like a whirlwind.

Kong Wuji recited a spell in front of the dragon, and suddenly a wall of tornadoes fell from the sky, and everywhere the wind wall went, the sky was dark, and everything on the ground was frantically rolled up and thrown into the sky, even the thickest ancient trees were not spared, they were uprooted, all broken and torn, blocking the dragon's path.

The dragon notices the anomaly and jumps in direction, but when it turns, a new wall of wind appears in front of it, blocking it. Seeing that the roaring wind walls on both sides were connected from end to end and turned into a circle to encircle it, the giant dragon roared, and its whole body suddenly emitted strong magical ripples, and the magic ripples penetrated the heavy wind walls, shattering the wind ring surrounding it like glass, and scattered countless wind fragments scattered from the sky, falling to the ground and disappearing.

But in such a momentary pause, Xiao Xuemei's sword had already been cut down.

"Uh......h ...... "The dragon let out a loud scream and continued to run, but its speed began to decrease dramatically, and finally it crashed into the trunk of a large tree and fell to the ground.

Xiao Xuemei chased after him, cut open the dragon's body, and took out a magic core, "This is in good condition, it is estimated that it can be sold for five hundred gold coins." ”

The three of them rested for a while, roasted the flesh of the Ulla dragon, and after eating and drinking, continued into the depths of the forest.

The forest is still lush, if it weren't for the Ula dragon that broke into the forest because of predation, it is estimated that the three of them would not have encountered such a huge demonic beast in such a lush forest.

Along the way, I occasionally encountered the corpses of one or two unknown humans, and the corpses had the claw marks of fierce beasts. Most of the body has decayed, emitted a foul smell, and has been dead for a long time.
