177 Scorpion Revenge
The air shook, and the blood puppets of Jack and Sha'er were sent out with only a flower in front of them, and when they opened their eyes again, the harsh sunlight and bitter wind and sand were already hovering overhead.
"Here, is it that Secretary Andrei sent us out?"
Jack frowned and looked around, and at this point they returned to the large gathering place on the ground, near the top of the building behind them, and around the two of them there were still some magical resources and precious materials.
"Well, well, the clerk is still very generous, feathered people and special biological materials, it is estimated that many official wizards will be blushing because of this. ”
Sha'er spun around twice with a beautiful girl with wings, and Jack also touched the contents of his pocket and laughed when he saw it, a small vial of the blood and hairy cuticles of the Ikana's modified python.
"There are a lot of potted plants and test-tube liquids, but they are all ordinary crops, is this a farming area with a large cluster?"
The parasitic plants in Jack's body trembled slightly, and after careful perception, he didn't find anything abnormal, but there were many plants and flowers around, most of which were ordinary mortals' food and plants.
"Hey, you two, how did you get here?"
Just as Jack and Sha'er were counting the supplies around them, an old man with bare shoulders came over with a frown, followed by several blue-haired creatures that looked like monkeys, whose strength fluctuated at no more than the apprentice level.
"This is the planting area and garbage dump of the gathering place, what are you doing here?"
The tone was not good, the old man stared at the two of them for a while, and did not seem to welcome them very much, and Jack was slightly surprised to see this scene, because Sha'er and his own clothes could see that they were quite identious, but the old man did not look in awe at all.
"I'm sorry, an elder teleported us here, not intentionally to disturb us. ”
Jack smiled apologetically at the old man, and then prepared to pull the eldest sister away, knowing that the other party was a transformation apprentice through his senses, and this kind of person who had cut off the hope of promotion and consumed his life to maintain his mental strength rarely lived to be so old.
"Elders, teleportation, top wizards or elite powerhouses, it's not easy to break through space in this large gathering place, but it has nothing to do with my work. ”
The old man glanced at the precious resources and biological materials at the feet of the two of them, and then fiddled with a purple flower on his own, seemingly unconcerned about these things, but he obviously knew their value from the tone he had just said.
"Well, did the clerk send us here on purpose?"
Jack looked at the old man and frowned slightly, just now the clerk Andre sent them here after listening to his answer, there seems to be some special purpose in this.
"Plantation areas and dump ......"
Sha'er whispered softly, and then began to look into the distance from the top of the building, behind the large gathering place, a field of purple-red plants from south to north, and a large area of dark earth with polluting radiation to the west.
It was like a big mouth that had eaten a few bites, and the vast expanse of land near the west was charred and foul-smelling, and the rich traces of magical contamination and destruction made it clear that this place had been deliberately destroyed.
"The destruction of the elite rank, is this the trace left by the scorpion when it took revenge?"
Sha'er said as she looked at the core tower of the large gathering place, where there was still a clear trace of the destruction of a giant pincer, and if it were not for the magic of an elite wizard, the tower would have been cut off.
"Hehe, the scorpion revenge? The heirs of the big family don't know what happened at that time? The black scorpion is to avenge this land, and it is Andrei, the secretary of the west, who destroys it, alas, what a pity for such a good field!"
The old man muttered to himself as he played with the leaves of the purple flowers, his eyes looking at the polluted land in the distance, as if he was remembering something.
"The clerk destroyed his own purified areas and planted fields, why?"
Shar and Jack looked at each other, then at the old man, around whom a few strange blue-haired monkeys were carrying common plants and vines, apparently the other's assistants.
"Because that field is so good, it is not afraid of polluting the wind and sand and the harsh environment, and it is still devouring the harmful substances around it little by little, and many desert creatures have also been attracted to it, I think it is probably created by ......people above the elite level."
The old man sighed with the purple flower in his hand, and casually threw a piece of fluorescent ore pressed against the young seedling, which was a special metal rough stone that Sha'er brought out of her private warehouse, and the official wizards outside would fight over it.
"Bloodline Mentor, Zeka Arsa......"
Jack looked at the pitch-black earth not far away and sighed slightly, in his opinion, only this person, who was honored as 'mentor' by many bloodline wizards, could create the fields and purification areas that the old man said.
"Well, it must be him! I still vaguely remember that face, he and I have been rummaging around the wasteland and garbage for nearly twenty years, and the man in the field has put a lot of effort into it, but he didn't expect to be researching and planting with us abandoned waste......
As he spoke, the old man plucked the water bladder from his waist, and poured a bitter liquid with inferior flowers and plants into his stomach, a low-end drink for mortals, with a slight detoxifying and nourishing effect.
"Probably trying to try, Zeka Arsa once made the four schools reconcile with the bloodline wizards, and if the other party can accept his research results, then there may be some hope to rebuild the continent together. ”
Jack didn't say what was in his heart, he and Sha'er's mother admired this bloodline mentor very much, and they knew a lot of things under his influence, but the old man had never heard what he said, and it was probably blocked by the higher-ups at the time.
"Hehe, who would have thought that an apprentice like me who failed to advance would stay with that kind of big man, I remember that he also poured wine and cooked for me, that skill is really superb!"
The old man sometimes laughed out loud as he remembered the vague things of the past, but soon he sighed as he pinched the dry and crumbling soil, and some of the dried and broken leaves of the plants were also picked out of the flowers.
"His son, who brought us food, seems to be a reckless guy with a very bad temper, but when he walks into the field, he is very careful not to step on the seedlings, and I used to introduce women to him at the time, and now I think about it, I am much older than me. ”
As he spoke, the old man glanced at the core tower of the large gathering place, where the hideous scars still showed traces of magic, and Jack could use the 'stone eyes' to vaguely observe the blurred image of the giant scorpion.
Black Scorpion, a direct blood relative of one of the Six Mentors, and the purest blood nobleman, was adopted and cared for by Zeka Arsa for a long time because his father 'Scorpion Mentor' was injured in the Great War.
"What's the use of boring elite magic in this world? The fields were completely deducted from the western region in a short instant, and then what about it? how could you not grow the plants and food of the time......
The old man glanced at the top of the core tower with a slight mockery, where the magic mark of the Western Secretariat was painted, and the huge currents and vortices of the spear were entangled.
"And then, and then it's revenge! I remember that he looked like he was crying at the time, although there was no expression or movement, but those who are familiar with it should know that that Yoshiko was here to change and make trouble after seeing it!"
