Chapter 16: The Dead Old Woman Comes

On the battlefield of the mountainside woodland, the light suddenly became a hundred times stronger, almost illuminating the entire forest, and the impact of the light blade of the super master was like countless thunderbolts exploding continuously.

Seeing the power of this natural disaster from afar, Chang Le thought that he would be finished if he was beaten, and couldn't help but stop:

"Wendy, the big whale fights, the little one is watching the excitement on the side, do you know what the result is?"

"Coward!" said Wendy, her voice was crisp and fearless, "you're going to be scared to death!"

"Haha, I want to eat meat, listen to this, you also plot the Saint Emperor Treasure?"

"I just want it!"

Wendy clenched her fists fiercely, her eyes sparkled, and she looked arrogant, but her next sentence revealed the truth:

"My teacher is the best, no one can beat her, the treasure must be hers, and if it is hers, it is equal to mine!"

After saying that, Wendy ignored Chang Le's reaction and rushed towards the battlefield alone.

Of course, Chang Le was still not at ease, and followed behind and asked:

"Little madman, your teacher is very good?"

"Awesome! Dead old woman is very powerful! she's perverted!" replied Wendy without hesitation.

Then she began to describe the teacher's awesomeness, and the terrifying tone was like telling a ghost story. However, the "awesome" she said is not the same thing as the "awesome" that Chang Le asked.

Wendy is saying that the teacher has a strange temper and is good at rectifying people, and the target of rectification is, of course, Wendy, and no one else.

First of all, the "dead old woman" forcibly took in the apprentice, lobbied Wendy's father and took her away, completely ignoring whether the subject himself was willing to learn magic, urging her to practice every day, all the topics revolved around what the power of nature was, and it was extremely boring and boring. And she is not allowed to play, she is not allowed to eat snacks, and she is only allowed to see her parents once a month.

Moreover, the food cooked by the teacher was also unpalatable, the ingredients were monotonous, the spices were uneven, the fruits were not fresh enough, the apples were crumpled, and half a worm was eaten in the pear...... The mage tower is not accompanied by children of the same age, several of the mage assistants are nerds, and the mages who come to visit are older than the five Wendy plus together.

The innocent Wendy couldn't survive a day, but no matter how she cried and coquettish, the teacher never relented, and moved a lot of classics to force her to read, some of which have been dusted for thousands of years, sticking to antique-level cobwebs, disgusting to death!

And after reading it, if she can't remember clearly, she will be scolded by the teacher, scolding her for "not caring about reading, wasting her smart brain", in short, she is so fierce......

In short, in Wendy's mouth, the teacher's abuse of her is too many to write!

However, in Chang Le's ears, it is a touching story of a venerable magician, who put down his noble identity and turned into a kind grandmother, doing everything possible to coax a little naughty person to learn magic, and painstakingly cultivating it into a talent.

He could hardly hold back his tears and muttered:

"How nice it would be if there was a teacher who 'treated' me like this since I was a child!"

"Alas, big brother, you don't have such a terrible teacher, you don't know how to be blessed in the midst of blessings!"

The phrase "I don't know how to be blessed in the midst of happiness" was actually said by the little girl first, and she patted Chang Le on the shoulder with envy, making the latter speechless.

Just as Wendy begins to brag about how she battled with her teacher, how she mixed things into her teacher's reagent bottle, causing the laboratory to explode and disturb the mage Tari's chickens, a strange wind suddenly blows in the forest.

Then an ethereal voice came from the air:

"Little girl, you're talking bad about the teacher behind your back!"

"The teacher is here!" Wendy exclaimed, peeking out of Chang Le's arms, and covering her mouth with a wicked smile.

Chang Le looked around the treetops, but he didn't see the shadow of the "dead old woman".

"Where is your teacher?" Chang Le couldn't help but ask.

Wendy didn't answer, and reached out to the sky.

"Is it in the sky?" Chang Le jumped up, and "Hongfei" jumped onto the dense canopy.

As soon as he emerged, he felt a gust of wind blow in his face, and then a figure wrapped in a pale cyan halo flew through the air, advancing and descending, and finally stopped not far in front of him.

Wendy's teacher finally appeared, and he was suspended in the air like a god!

Chang Le's brain was blank at the moment, he never expected that the "dead old woman" would be such an image!

She was not an impeccable beauty, her face was a little longer, but she was definitely a delicate young woman, her eyebrows and figure seemed to come out of a painting, and she looked like a goddess who had just come down from heaven, elegant and holy, like a fantasy.

The "dead old woman" was wrapped in some flowing fabrics of unknown material, only covering her chest and abdomen, and she didn't even wear shoes, revealing a pair of white slender legs, her delicate toes naturally drooping, and a few streamers wrapped around her body, dancing with the swirling wind, adding a bit of mysterious beauty to her.

Although she is dressed less than Blue Moon, any man who sees her should not have evil thoughts, because no one dares to be disrespectful to the goddess of the earth!

The "goddess" didn't speak, she kept staring at Chang Le, who was dumbfounded, as if she had become a clay statue.

It was Wendy under the tree who shouted first:

"Big brother, don't fall in love with my teacher! She looks young and beautiful, but she is actually over seventy years old......! A respectful old man!"

The "goddess" listened to Wendy's words, not only was she not angry, but smiled gently downward, and then her eyes turned back to Chang Le's face, and her mellow and beautiful voice sounded:

"You're very athletic, but unfortunately you haven't cultivated, and you're a pariah?"

It seems that the "goddess" has been around for a long time, and has even been monitoring Wendy's whereabouts all the time. Chang Le nodded, and then felt that it was too rude not to speak, and replied in a loud voice:

"Honorable Goddess, my name is Chang Le, and I am a pariah in Kassel. ”

The "goddess" smiled again: "I am not a god. My name is Eunice. ”

Great Demon Guide! It turns out that she is a Great Demon Guide! Fifth-Order Law Position, the real pinnacle of the mainland!

The well-informed blacksmith uncle once told Changle that people can't fly, just like dogs can't climb trees. But if he saw someone flying in the sky one day, it must be a wind system great magician who used the fifth-order professional skill "Wind Wings", and there was no other possibility.

The Great Demon Guide of the Wind System is invincible most of the time, because the enemy has no way to chase and kill in the sky, and the only natural enemy is the fifth-order assassination department combat class that specializes in long-range sniping, and this kind of character is only afraid that it is even rarer than the Great Demon Guide, because the top elite among the cultivators can reach the fifth order, and the elite combat positions do not like that kind of obscene fighting.

"It's an honor to meet you, respected archmage!" Chang Le lowered his head, his heart pounding, to be able to stand face-to-face with the archmage for a while was already a blessing for a pariah boy.

"Hmm. Eunice snorted and reached out to Chang Le's forehead.

The other party moved extremely fast, Chang Le didn't have time to react at all, and even if he could, he didn't dare to move.

Immediately afterward, he felt as if countless steel needles had pierced his brain, and the pain almost made him faint, but the pain came and went quickly, and everything recovered in an instant.

Chang Le suddenly remembered what Wendy said that when the teacher met and said that he wanted to take a test, he "hit her on the head", and it seems that he has just taken a test!

Eunice's expression became serious: "Your soul is too strange!"

Chang Le was stunned for a moment, and then began to worry that the truth of the "Beast Soul" would be found out by the other party.

"Excuse me, Master, where is my soul monster?"

"Your soul power is stronger than that of a high-level cultivator! And with strange spatial fluctuations! You are a genius who learns spatial magic!"

Chang Le was ashamed in his heart, estimating that the so-called "spatial fluctuations" should come from the beast soul bell, and he became a "genius" by himself, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he had to be modest:

"The master has won the prize! I am a pariah, and I can't cultivate ......"

"Just know you're a pariah! You're very good with Wendy, or I'd have killed you. Eunice's expression changed from serious to stern, "But you can't have much to do with Wendy in the future, understand?"

Discrimination against untouchables is everywhere, and the Archmage is not immune. Chang Le didn't have any resentment about this, only felt deep sadness, and he couldn't help but glance at Wendy under the tree.

Wendy was jumping to her feet and shouting, "I like big brother!

Chang Le smiled indifferently: "Master, I understand." ”

"Well, I'm doing it for your own good, too. Eunice regained her goddess-like grace.

"I don't care. Chang Le tried to smile naturally, "If there is nothing else, please take care of your students, I'll go first." ”

Eunice nodded:

"You little fellow is very steady, but it's a pity that you are a pariah. I can't accept you as a student, but you can go to the Imperial Capital Royal Mage Academy, just say that I introduced you, and let them give you a qualification to audit. ”

"Thank you, Master, don't bother, the untouchables have nothing to do with magic. Chang Le politely and resolutely bowed down and refused.

Just as he was about to turn to leave, a dark halo erupted on the hillside in the distance, this time he stood higher and saw more clearly, and he even saw that the white-haired golden-armored knight, with a light shield in one hand and a spear in the other, with a golden flame burning all over his body, was struggling to advance and retreat on the land that had turned into a swamp, fighting with the humanoid monsters that kept bursting out from the ground!

Those "monsters" will turn into mud and fall back to the ground after a single blow, but in the blink of an eye, another monster will appear, suddenly rise from the mire, and swing a huge fist.

The Knight in Golden Armor was entangled by monsters, while his men were attacked by the Red Flame Swordsmen, and even the formation of four people was difficult to parry.

Chang Le was shocked: "What kind of monster are those mud?"

"Clay Golem. Eunice replied indifferently, "Fontaine has met a fierce enemy, and the other party has an earth magister. ”

"Magister", missing the word "big", is the fourth order, although it is weaker than Eunice, it is also a rare master in the world!

The great magic guide of the wind system was not in a hurry, but Chang Le was worried about the golden armor knight:

"Is that knight in danger?"

Eunice smiled:

"He's so proud, it's good to suffer a little, I'll save him later. ”

At this time, the little girl Wendy also blessed herself with the "Wind Walking Technique", climbed the tree with great difficulty, and then pointed to the battlefield and cheered, but she soon became worried about the Golden Armor Knight:

"Uncle Marshal is in danger!

"Yes, yes. Eunice smiled and bowed to her students.

Then she changed to a commanding tone:

"Stay here and don't run around. Chang Le, protect Wendy!"

Before the words fell, a strong wind rose again, and Eunice's pale cyan figure flew into the sky again, drawing a brilliant band of light in the night sky, sweeping towards the mountainside.

"Dead old woman!" Wendy scolded in a low voice, then smiled mischievously, "'Wind Wings' has a time limit, and the cooling is long, she flies around in front of her big brother and pretends to be a ghost, and when the fight starts, she can't fly, see what she does!"

Chang Le glared at her dissatisfied:

"Master Eunice is obviously very young, why are you scolding her for being an old woman?"

"My Imperial Ancestor...... My grandmother called her 'sister,' why wasn't she an old woman?

Wendy spoke very quickly, Chang Le was speechless for a moment, and immediately thought that the higher the cultivation realm, the longer the lifespan, and the speed of aging was also greatly reduced, and the peak figures of the fifth order could live for hundreds of years, so it was not surprising that the appearance of the seventy-year-old Great Demon Guide was still young.

However, this also has a premise, that is, when cultivating to the advanced level, people are still young, after all, raising the realm can delay aging, but it cannot rejuvenate. This Wind Rank Great Demon Guide must have reached the fifth order at a young age, so Eunice is also a rare genius!

Wendy was still indignant: "Big Tongue Monster, if you really listen to the old woman and ignore me, I will ...... in the future I'm going to ignore you anymore!"

Wendy's speech was illogical, Chang Le didn't care about answering, all his attention was on the mountainside, the battle scene of the Great Magister would never be seen once in a lifetime!

And the battlefield with the addition of Eunice, the situation was reversed in an instant, with the loud sound of "air pressure explosion", the clay demons all turned into mud, a few wind blades swept by, and the Red Flame War Spirit Tagler retreated in embarrassment, and the opposing team also completely lost the will to fight, who would dare to oppose the legendary archmage? Not to mention that Eunice was in the air, they had almost no means to fight back.

The battle soon stopped, and the two sides began to negotiate, the attack system War Spirit Tagler has a very high status, is the suzerain of the Hundred Battles Gate, and has the support of the Earth Demon Master, but still does not want to completely give up the rights and interests of the Holy Emperor's treasure, trying to fight for the distribution ratio again, and as a result, the Great Demon Guide Eunice broke out again.

Even if Chang Le turned on the intermediate cunning rabbit state, his hearing was thirty times that of ordinary humans, and he could only hear those negotiations vaguely, let alone the little girl next to him.

Wendy shouted eagerly:

"Big brother, let's go over! I want to see the dead old woman play a prestige!"

The prestige of the teacher is equal to her majesty, which is understandable.

This time, Chang Le did not object, his curiosity was also strong, so he directly carried Wendy on his back, relying on his "cunning rabbit" state, and Wendy's blessed "Wind Walking Technique", the whole person was like a light big squirrel, moving flexibly between the canopies of the forest and sea, and quickly rushed to the battlefield.

Seeing that it was only 100 meters away from the empty field, an unexpected change suddenly happened!

Suddenly, the entire hillside shook, like a landslide and an earthquake, and even cracks appeared in the earth, and the rocks rolled in the mountains, and the trees swayed.

The enchantment light on the stone tower also completely disappeared at this time!

Chang Le didn't dare to land at this time, so he could only lower his figure, clinging to a thicker tree trunk with his right hand, and holding Wendy back to his back with his left hand, lest she couldn't hold it firmly with her own strength.

Wendy's reaction was very strange, her little face suddenly turned red, and she didn't pay attention to the direction of the Saint Emperor's ruins, but stared at Chang Le's eyes, and the arms wrapped around him also quietly tightened.

Chang Le's keen hearing noticed that the little girl's heart was beating very fast, so he smiled and comforted:

"Don't be afraid, with me, you little won't die!"

Wendy was still staring at Chang Le, a smile appeared on her face, but her face turned even redder.

The shaking of the earth was still intensifying, and after a moment Wendy let out an exclamation and pointed out into the distance.

Chang Le turned his head to look, only to see a large area of hillside arching in the "rumbling" sound, and then "booming" to explode, throwing the trees on the surface of the ground away, like dozens of super huge arrows, bringing up overwhelming wind and soil.

At the same time, a behemoth broke through the ground, carrying the terrifying power of the ancient wilderness, and its nearly 100-meter-long tentacles danced across the sky, launching an indiscriminate attack on all the creatures around it!

"It's not a Saint Emperor Ruins, it's a fucking demonic Ruins!"

One of the warriors was caught in the tentacles, and before he burst alive, he shouted the last sentence hoarsely.

Chang Le couldn't help but exclaim: "What kind of monster is this?"

With his talent for "discernment", he couldn't find any answers.

That big guy couldn't see his head and face at all, and he didn't have legs and feet, the edges and corners of his whole body were protruding and strange, and his back extended out of eight wrists and feet like eight giant centipedes, dancing in the air with a whistling sound of "woo", and each blow would hit a cultivator, so fast that it was too fast to react.

Moreover, its brachiopods not only have the function of whipping and strangulation, but also hold weapons at the tip of each brachiopod, similar to a whirling jagged disc, which is divided into two wherever it goes, whether it is a human body or a tree.

Chang Le's position also happened to be within the attack range of the monster's wrists and feet, and now he was thinking not about "whether to escape", but "how to escape".

The monster didn't seem to intend to let anything go alive, and whichever cultivator escaped the fastest and farthest, its wrists and feet would give priority to which one it would "deal with". The low-level fighters were killed directly, and the high-level ones looked like they had been hit hard even if they barely parried.

There are also the old and young people in the "Blood Soul Valley" in the fleeing crowd, it seems that they did not make a special trip to Kassel City to help Young Master Taylor, and exploring the "Holy Emperor Ruins" is the main purpose. However, at this moment, he could only save his life, and the peak warrior Lao Qiao desperately protected the lower-level Mar, rolling to avoid the attack of the trolls, trying to escape from the danger zone.

This reminded Chang Le that Mal, a genius who had cultivated to the rank of war master in his teens, was the "baby bump" of the Blood Soul Valley, and probably the sect also sent him out to increase his experience, if he really died here, Lao Qiao would not be able to deal with it even if he went back alive.

But at the critical moment, a mysterious black shadow suddenly appeared, grabbed the two people, and retreated like lightning.

Who is this master? Could it be that there is another war spirit hidden in the scene?

But none of that matters, Chang Le only cares about how he escapes with Wendy now.

Even with Wendy's auxiliary spell effect, his offensive and defensive abilities are far from those of real fighters, and now he can only find a way not to attract the attention of monsters, give full play to his speed advantage, and sneak away quietly under the cover of the dense forest.

But how can monsters perceive, and will they be heard if they run?

Just as he was carefully sliding down the trunk, Wendy suddenly shouted:

"Teacher!"

Instead of calling the teacher to help, she saw the teacher in distress.

Just like Wendy joked before, the teacher turned on the "Wind Wings" and flew around in front of Chang Le, and the skill was cooling down when it was really fighting, so what should I do?

And now that's exactly what happened!

The Wind Archmage Eunice had already been convinced by the audience, and it didn't matter if the "Wind Wings" was in a state of cooling and charging, and no one dared to challenge it anyway.

She drove everyone away from the gate of the ruins, and then hung in front of the door with the help of "levitation", posing as "a woman should be closed, and ten thousand people should not be opened". The flotation technique was actually used to cross rivers or jump from heights, and her ability to move horizontally was worse than running, just so that her bare feet would not come into contact with the dirt.

In short, from the way she dresses to the use of skills, she pays attention to highlighting her "goddess" style, but as soon as the monster comes out, she bears the brunt in front of the door, and the wind system wizard is suddenly embarrassed. She had little clothing on her body, and there were some streamers used to compose music, but the streamers were twisted by the monster's wrists and feet, and she was almost exposed.

Fortunately, Marshal Fontaine rushed forward in time, although he was one order lower than Eunice, he was a war spirit with defensive talent, and he had a heavy armor, but he was more resistant than the fifth-order law Eunice.

"Hold it, hold it!" Eunice screamed, first canceling the levitation spell and running deep and shallow, white feet covered in mud, for the earth magister's "muddy spell" was still in effect until now.

"I'm pulling, I can't pull!" shouted Fontaine.

The monster didn't pay much attention to the golden Fang Dan in front of it, it only used one wrist and foot to fight Fang Dan, and the other seven were used to clean up the rest of the cultivators one by one.

Tagler and the others, who had fought against Fontaine earlier, did not want to help him, but when they fled, they were killed by three of their companions, leaving only Tagler himself and the earth magister, so he had to cheer up and join forces with the enemy not long ago to defend against the "inhuman" monster.

"No!" Eunice shouted, "It's an Ancient Demon Guard! I'm immune to the wind system, I can't do it!"

"I can't do it either!" Fontaine yelled anxiously, "it's also immune to taunts, immune to physical attacks?"

"Won't be completely immune, concentrate on attacking one point!"

"How do you concentrate? I'm almost stunned by it!"

"I'll give you blessings and support!"

"Hurry, hurry, hurry!" Fontaine yelled.

"I'm going to support too!," the Red Flame Swordsman Tagler yelled desperately.

"There is still no treatment! there is no treatment!" Marshal Fontaine shouted and his throat was slashed, and the shield of light was smashed to the ground, and the corners of his mouth were already bleeding unconsciously.

The shouts and screams on the battlefield rang out, but Chang Le took advantage of this time to forcibly hold Wendy and fall to the ground, his own life is the most important, if he wants to run, he has to run as soon as possible, the fewer people left in the field, the easier it is for the two teenagers to attract the attention of the monster.

But Wendy struggled desperately, crying and shouting to save the teacher:

"They don't have a cure! I can cure it!"

Don't look at the usual times when she secretly scolds the teacher as a "dead old woman", at this time, you can see her true friendship with the teacher.

"Treat a fart!"

Chang Le rarely burst out foul language, this little girl is too ignorant of current affairs, rushing forward at this time, can only cause chaos to the masters, how can her small body block the blow of the troll? Chang Le himself can't do it!

And Wendy's trouble, sure enough, revealed his whereabouts, and before Chang Le's scolding words landed, a huge wrist and foot had already crossed the sky and swept towards the woods.

"I was killed by you!" Chang Le shouted in a hissed voice.

The link-like metal wrists were coming so fast that he had no choice but to hug Wendy and throw herself to the ground, covering her with his own body.

Of course, if he is directly swept by his wrists and feet, even if Chang Le is as hard as iron, he will be turned into flesh and blood with the girl under him. He protects Wendy, it's just an instinct.

The surrounding trees all broke off with a deafening loud noise, and the whole row of giant trees "clicked" towards the two of them.

There was nowhere to escape, and the Beast Soul Bell couldn't enter, because the spatial positioning had long been messed up by the strong energy impact.

"It's all your fault!" Chang Le roared at the last moment.

"Blame you!" Wendy insisted on fighting when her life was hanging by a thread.

In an instant, the whole world was plunged into darkness.
