The air was oppressive, and Sha'er took small steps towards the northwest of the large gathering place, where Jack was frowning slightly to his left, and every now and then, he would look at the escort in the distance.

"What? Could it be that someone is using magic to spy on the family, or is it some other force?"

Jack slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, he had been a little uneasy since just now, although he knew that he was being watched for sure, but at this time he always felt a strange awkwardness and strangeness.

Shaking his head, Jack secretly urged the 'Parasitic Plant' and the Sword of Ella, and after carefully probing the nearby area, he did not notice anything unusual, and just as he was considering peeking with the 'Stone Eye', a strange birdsong rang out.

Like a combination of a parrot and a lion, a flamboyant monster with a bird's head and a beast's body flew down from the sky, chirping and flapping its vapor wings, and three metal keys with inscribed patterns around its neck.

The pressure dropped suddenly, and Jack suddenly felt his whole body loosen, and the oppressive awkwardness quietly disappeared after the arrival of the bird-headed monster, as if the heavy burden had been liberated.

"Jack, here, in front of you is the clerk's private warehouse, and most of the school supplies are now stored here, if you want to pick special resources, you must go through the inspection of the guardians. ”

Not noticing Jack's anomaly, Sha'er explained when she saw the bird-headed monster that the doppelganger puppet she controlled didn't talk much along the way, as if there was something wrong with the body that involved the spirit, so the perception and manipulation were affected.

"Guardians?"

Jack glanced at Sha'er and turned his head to the bird-headed monster, and the other laughed at the sight of him, like a parrot's huge head swaying and making a nice female voice.

"Little one, the inspection is not for fear of losing things, but to prevent you from being killed, this warehouse has a lot of enchanted plants and carnivorous insects, they sometimes react to certain smells and rudimentary magic, and they don't want to be turned into bones and obediently. ”

The bird-headed monster shuddered as it spoke, and a jelly-like viscous solution spilled from its surface, and it didn't take long for them to envelop Jack and Sha'er, causing them to frown slightly.

"It feels like taking a 'mud bath', how could Secretary Andre think of using this kind of thing to check and probe?"

Jack's nasal cavity itched and stinged, and although the solution was harmless, the smell was too unpleasant, especially when he had to swim and crawl on his body, not to mention how awkward it was.

Grandpa Eskar said that this was the school's laboratory, and that it had been invaded and destroyed once, and that the enraged clerk had spawned some plants and insects that could not be fully controlled, and that the liquid was not only for inspection but also for the purpose of repelling them. ”

Sha'er glanced at her brother and reluctantly explained that she had been here a few times to activate the fourth rudimentary magic, and she was quite helpless about this way of checking.

"Alright, alright, no problem, as long as you don't actively stimulate those plants and insects, you should be fine, you can move freely on the fourth and third floors, but you can't stay too long. ”

The bird-headed monster twisted and transformed into a naked purple-haired woman, and after stretching slightly, she inserted the metal key around her neck into the ground, and an iron door that looked like a beast's mouth emerged from the air.

"Elite level, no wonder the peeping sensation just now dissipated......"

Jack was a little stunned after looking at the purple-haired woman slightly, the 'parasitic plant' before the other party changed into a human form, and only felt the fluctuation of the wizard's level, and now it has suddenly increased to the level of an elite wizard.

"With a magic circle and a large transformation, the guardians appointed by the scribe can link up with this private warehouse, and they can be promoted to elite level as long as they are within this range, and there is a similar existence in the meditation tower of the school. ”

Sha'er explained a few words when she saw her brother's appearance, and when Jack heard it, he nodded and put his hand on the iron door, but as soon as he touched his body, he disappeared, as if his whole body had turned into air.

"The underground space, where the clerk's private warehouse was originally built, and the iron door was a means of movement to connect here. ”

Jack pressed his temples slightly, the movement of the enchanted item made him dizzy, and after a brief recovery, he briefly sensed his surroundings, and the ability of the parasitic plant made him understand where he was.

The door shaped like the mouth of a beast teleported him underground, and he stood on a wide gray-white stone platform, with several wizard apprentices tinkering with potions nearby, as if they had just been exchanged for items from here.

"Let's go, this is the entrance to the warehouse and the construction area, let's go directly to the 'gray cave' on the third basement floor, where the school resources and special materials that are allowed to be exchanged are stacked. ”

With a glimmer of light, Sha'er's doppelganger soon appeared beside Jack, who teleported to the other side with an antique gray-white scroll in her hand.

"Parasitic plants and flesh restoration, I want to try the two rudimentary magic of 'completion' now, is there anything that can help me shorten the time it takes to 'complete' them?"

Jack asked after a moment's thought, and Sha'er frowned and began to look through the scroll in her hand, and it didn't take long for her to find what her brother needed.

"In the middle and back of the third layer, there are some good resources stored there, and you can exchange a lot of them for a lot after completing the rescue mission. ”

Sha'er gently chopped her feet on the stone platform, and with the spread of sound and spiritual power, a black creature that looked like a ray flew over on the seat, which was a moving pet in the underground warehouse.

"Gray caves, biological resource placement areas. ”

Once Jack and Sha'er were seated, they gave the order, and the wizard's apprentice who was driving the black ray confirmed the location and urged the pet to pick up the pet, and the electric stick tapped the ray on its back a few times, and it soon carried the two of them deeper underground.

Looking around, in the vertical cave of strange rocks, thick vines with human faces surround the dark giant pillars, and golden flying insects with a body length of three or four meters fly back and forth on it, faintly, you can see a lot of human bone remains nearby.

"Be careful, the bugs here are very impulsive, if you are visiting for the first time, be careful not to make eye contact with them, they carry a variety of curses of their own, and even official wizards are not easy to deal with. ”

The black ray slowly streaked across the vines, and the wizard apprentice who wielded it carefully reminded the passengers that there had been many unlucky eggs who had become food for these bugs, most of them young apprentices with no eyesight.

"It's okay for the bugs, those vines with human faces are difficult to deal with, this is a mutant variety spawned by the clerk with ancient magic, even he can't completely control it, if it really makes trouble, the large gathering place will be in danger. ”

As she spoke, she looked over and saw that the vines with human faces seemed to be giving birth to something, and in some areas they had bloomed extremely bright flowers, and the stamens of the flowers hung with the fresh corpses of large monsters.
