Chapter 12: The Miracle Forest
The Miracle Forest, about fifty miles away from the western suburbs of the Immortal City, is very wide, and there are many magical beasts of different forms. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The first stronghold established by mankind in the land of the land, the Miracle Station, is located in the immediate vicinity of this land.
The abundant Warcraft resources provide a large number of Warcraft spirits, and it is precisely because of this that many originally unknown Demon Card Masters have found their first pot of gold here and started their legendary lives.
It is now a harsh winter, the branches and leaves of the trees have long since fallen, and the forest has lost its former hustle and bustle. Some of the monsters were involved in the far south early, and some of the rest were also dormant, quietly waiting for spring to come.
Today, the Miracle Forest has welcomed an uninvited guest.
She was a tall Oriental woman, with her black hair tied into a long ponytail, hanging low at her waist, swaying from side to side with the swaying of her body.
The neat cyan suit, with a red belt around the waist, all of this combined reveals a classical beauty.
"Sif, don't you think of a more reliable way than to turn me into a woman?"
"No, no. A black cat at the woman's feet shook her head anthropomorphically, shook the broken snow on her body and said, "I think you look pretty good now, much more pleasing to the eye than you usually do." ”
This woman is the same person Xia Yu looks like after being cast by Sif's disguise magic, and the black cat next to her is Sif's changed appearance.
They came here not for anything else, but so that Xia Yu could find a magical beast that could be refined into soul magic.
According to Sif Sif, in the era of the Shining City, the top warriors used not the power of magic cards, but soul magic.
The reason why soul art is powerful is because this power is not imprisoned by rank, but will gradually become stronger with the growth of the user's strength.
For example, Xia Yu's first magic card, Night Rabbit Black Blade, was originally an ordinary level magic card, no matter how much it was developed, it would not break through this level. And when used for a period of time, it will lose its effectiveness and become a useless waste card.
But if the Night Rabbit Black Blade was a soul technique, things would have been completely different. It will evolve with the strengthening of the master's ability, and one day it will grow into a soul art comparable to the level of rare-grade magic cards, and it is even possible to go to the next level.
Don't underestimate the leap of this level, every time you upgrade a level, whether it is a soul beast, magic, or a treasure, there will be several more very practical inherent abilities.
But there are also drawbacks in soul magic compared to magic cards. First of all, there are 10,000 magical beasts that can be turned into soul arts, and it is difficult to find one out of them. Secondly, the power of the First Fire required to activate the soul spell is far more than the power required to activate the magic card.
Therefore, based on this characteristic, soul art is often the patent unique to that kind of high-level soul refiner with very strong power.
"That's right, Xia Yu. Sifu looked at Xia Yu with a gloomy face, and suddenly seemed to think of something interesting, and giggled.
"What. Xia Yu said angrily, his voice at this time also became a completely female voice, but the tone was still full of masculinity before Xia Yu, which sounded quite strange.
"Maybe I meet a handsome nobleman who has taken a fancy to you, don't forget me when the time comes, let Sif follow you to eat and drink spicy!"
"Get out, you devil......"
Just as Xia Yu and Sifu were arguing, a small round creature appeared not far from them, with small eyes the size of beans and two large teeth occupying a third of the area of the face.
Xia Yu noticed the little guy, and he cocked his index finger and made a silent gesture to the black cat that Sif had transformed.
"Sif see that guy? It's a soul beast that can refine energy cards. ”
"What!" Sif exclaimed, and the creature was startled by Sif Sif and quickly rolled out of their sight.
"Didn't I tell you to be quiet!I heard that it was a soul beast, so excited!" Xia Yu was a little speechless.
"It's not because of that!" Sif turned into a cat, but it was a trick after all, and it floated in front of Xia Yu, staring at her two eyes of different colors.
"How can you tell! The distinction of soul beasts is very particular, whether it is the color of the coat, the size of the body or the ......."
"True Eye! By the way, I didn't tell you, it's the kind of sharp eyes that can be seen at a glance to find out which one is a soul beast, how about it, it's amazing. ”
"Eye!" said Siff, who grew her mouth in surprise, then fell to the ground in chagrin and rolled in the snow.
"Tyrannical Things! Tyrannical Creatures ......"
Seeing Sif's appearance, Xia Yu was completely confused, "Although it is a rare ability, you don't have to exaggerate it so much......"
Sif finally stopped rolling, and the snow-covered appearance of it looked ridiculous, like a chubby white cat.
"Maybe it's a little rare for those humans who only have the power of source fire in the Immortal City, but for the humans of the First Fire Era, it's extremely rare......! This ability can also discover those demonic beasts that can be refined into soul skills!"
Sifu seemed to open the conversation, and talked a lot about it, and finally Xia Yu summed it up, probably saying how difficult it is to find that kind of soul technique and magic beast, how convenient this ability is, and so on......
"That's right, Sif Sif. Xia Yu was really a little bored listening to it, and hurriedly wanted to find a topic to prevent Sifu from talking about it anymore, "Listen to what you say, the humans in the First Fire Era are much stronger than the current humans, so why are they still perishing?"
Hearing Xia Yu's question, Sif really closed her mouth, she thought silently for a long time before she slowly spoke:
"I also heard from the elders of the Night Elf Clan, thousands of years ago, there was a war called the 'War of Salary', the enemies of the other world invaded the Divine Blessed Continent, and they have a completely different power from us, and what they did was to take away the core of the first fire......
"After decades of brutal war, the Shining City was finally victorious, but unexpectedly, a giant creature dormant in the abyss attacked the Shining City that was immersed in joy, killing the Sun King, and even taking half of the First Fire Core. ”
"Since then, everything has started to go wrong, first many people have become crazy people who kill people on sight, and then, most of the inhabitants of the Shining City will no longer die, but they have also lost their will and become living corpses without thinking......"
Xia Yu remembered what Yulia had said to him, which coincided with Sif's story.
He felt as if he was in the center of a huge vortex, the Fire Protector Sect, the Abyssal Giant, and even the existence of another world, all powerful forces thirsting for the power of the First Fire that dwelt in his soul.
A small flame has the power to affect the world, and what kind of truth is hidden under this mystery?
Several loud noises pulled Xia Yu back to reality from his thoughts, as if someone had detonated something not far from them, and the snow on the branches of the trees that were already bare was affected by the loud noise and fell to the ground one after another.
Xia Yu and Sifu looked at each other for a moment, and they quickly ran towards the source of the loud noise.
"Is this, Hessian scavenging bears?" When he came to the place where the loud noise came from, Xia Yu was stunned by the scene in front of him.
Hessian scavenging bears, a well-known group of carnivores, are not only larger in size but also more ferocious than ordinary bears.
This creature usually feeds on carrion and does not usually attack humans, but there is evidence that Hessian scavenging bears also attack live creatures during the winter months when food is scarce.
The unlucky ghost in front of him was obviously one of the victims, this was a middle-aged man, dressed in the costume of a merchant common in the Immortal City, a carriage fell to the side, and the three horses pulling the cart were already bloody and fleshy, and there was a smell of burnt flesh all over his body.
Xia Yu guessed that the businessman must have detonated the explosives hidden in the car after suffering a sudden disaster.
"Sif, I can't die without help, don't make a move until you have to, don't let that person see anything. ”
Before Sif could answer, Xia Yu had already rushed forward, and Sif could only shake his head helplessly.
This guy is really a hot-blooded teenager.
"Ice Crystal Snow Leopard, Deep Diving Fishman, Northland Eagle!"
Three imposing soul beasts instantly appeared in the center of the bear herd!
The group of bears that had already pushed the merchants into a desperate situation immediately exploded, and although the Hessian scavenging bear was powerful, it was still much worse than Xia Yu's soul beast.
After a while, there were many casualties among the bears, and one of the largest Hessian scavenger bears roared, and the still surviving scavenger bears turned their heads, picked up the corpses of their companions, and fled.
"Are you alright, are you the merchant who went to the Miracle Station?" Putting away the soul beast, Xia Yu walked up to the unlucky merchant and asked with concern.
The man looked like he was forty or fifty years old, his face was extremely pale, and Xia Yu also noticed that this person only had one eye, and the other side was covered by a black blindfold.
"Thank you beautiful young lady for rescuing me, Troy is here to be grateful! It is as you said, the contemptible man was transporting a cart of food to the miracle station, but I did not expect to be attacked by this group of brutes, if it were not for your timely appearance, young lady, I am afraid that I would have died here!"
The merchant took off his hat unhurriedly and bowed slightly towards Xia Yu.
He didn't seem to be too frightened, and was well-educated, looking like a wealthy merchant living in the upper districts of the Immortal City.
"Beautiful young lady?" Xia Yu was a little stunned for a while, and after seeing his plump breasts, he reacted, "You're welcome, it's just a gesture, you are too risky to come to the Miracle Forest in this season, and you don't bring a guard." ”
Troy smiled and nodded.
"Miss, what you said is, looking at your appearance, you must be a powerful magic card master, and Troy has nothing to thank Miss, so ......"
He took off a pure gold pendant hanging around his neck and stuffed it into Xia Yu's hand, "This is a contemptible family heirloom, I don't know if it can enter the eyes of Miss You, please be sure to accept it......"
"No, no, I'm not here for this. Xia Yu hurriedly refused.
"Miss, don't shirk anymore, in fact, this is a token. If you go back to the Immortal City, go to an inn in the upper district called 'The Black Raven' and show it to the owner, and you will find the Contemptible People, who have some power there, and many things can be much easier. ”
Xia Yu was not greedy for money, but the proposal that this merchant said was a little tempting to him, after all, he was about to leave for the Immortal City, maybe this person could really help him with anything.
"Alright then, I'll take it. ”
Seeing Xia Yu accept the pendant, Troy laughed.
"Dare to ask Miss Fang's name, the benefactor's name, the contemptible must be remembered. ”
"Uh...... My name is Sif Doan. Xia Yu couldn't think of any other name for a while, so he could only replace it with Sif Shif's name.
At this time, a black shadow swept in front of Xia Yu with a strong wind, and beside Troy, there was suddenly an additional man in black with a masked face!
"My lord, my subordinates ......" The man glanced at Xia Yu and hurriedly bowed his body as if to say something to Troy.
"Ilias, I encountered some minor trouble when you went to explore the path just now, if you hadn't been saved by this Miss Demon Card Master, you probably wouldn't have seen me now. ”
Troy didn't seem to want the man in black to continue, interrupting him.
“......”
The man in black glanced at Troy suspiciously, and froze in place.
"Since your friend has returned, then I won't bother. Xia Yu saw that the atmosphere was a little wrong, and expressed his intention to leave with interest.
"Thank you for your kindness, we'll have a meeting later. Troy didn't do anything to keep it, but said to Xia Yu with a smile.
Xia Yu nodded, put away the talisman given by Troy, and turned to leave.
When Xia Yu was far away, the man in black finally couldn't help but speak: "Lord Troy, ...... are you?"
"Ilyas, don't ask superfluous questions. How's the progress on the Holy See's side? ”
Troy looked at the direction Xia Yu was leaving, thoughtful.
"Still no progress. ”
"That's good, the dark department must send more manpower to find that person before the Holy See!"
"Yes!"
The man in black turned into a puff of black smoke and disappeared in place.
