The convoy was tired and tired, and the restlessness and anxiety made people's physical and mental strength double.

But when I actually walked into the camp, I heard laughter and human voices...... The dense and familiar footsteps are reassuring.

"Welcome, welcome, welcome comrades from the ancient city, it's a pity that you came at the wrong time, the usual scenery here is very good, but your arrival means that today is a good time for us...."

There are no slogans and no welcome signs, but these familiar ancient urban and rural accents instantly make people feel a lot more relieved...... A small number of outsiders in the team who "got on the wrong boat" had subtle expressions.

Naturally, the first thing to do is to ask what the hell this hell fire is all about.

"It's nothing, a tree is dead."

When this answer came out, everyone was a little confused, is this a tree?

And Lu Ping'an himself in the crowd nodded thoughtfully.

He knew what the vague strange feeling was along the way, all the burning trees, their life force connected to each other, and the flames were transmitted from below.

Moreover, this forest is so quiet that Lu Ping'an and his party did not even pick up the carcasses of animals along the way.

As far as the eye could see, Lu Ping'an didn't even see other plant communities such as low shrubs, as if there was only one kind of burning fire wood in the entire forest....... Either it is a forest of single plants, or other plants have been burned first, and this characteristic plant has been burned for a long time.

"We call it 'Omoriki', and this forest is all the body of a plant...... Sticking out of the wood, it looks like a shrub-like branch, and the underlying roots are connected. ”

"It doesn't seem to be a normal death, right?" Lu Ping'an asked casually, he had actually guessed what was probably going on, in a sense, it had something to do with him.

The middle-aged man in the lead of the other party shook his head and smiled wryly.

"Some time ago, we didn't think this forest was very annoying, it grew up fast, we went against the weeds every day, so we went to find the teachers of the ninth high school......."

Because they find the forest annoying, they naturally think about weeding, and in this regard, the most professional is the gardener, after all, this is their business scope, but the most efficient and best at it is the master of the fire element..... It's too easy to destroy than to build.

"Our initial experiment was a failure, no matter what kind of flame it was, it could only burn a small piece, although it was very efficient, but it didn't take a few days to recover ......" The one who spoke was a middle-aged man with black-rimmed glasses, Lu Ping'an had seen his photo, on the propaganda board of the ninth high school, he seemed to be surnamed Zhang, and he was a law-level flame master.

When Lu Ping'an was studying before, he found that their entire team was invited away.

“....... Then, our gardener found that their life forces were connected, and seemed to be vaguely connected, so we concentrated our efforts and used a very powerful 'Spontaneous Burning Curse' to successfully unleash on one of the targets, and the result was a conceptual self-burning ........"

So, naturally, this "forest" was completely burned.

"Uh, perfect death......" I don't know who said it, and the scene suddenly became a little subtle.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's been burning for four days, our gardener observes that its vitality is almost at the end, it is estimated that it will be burned for two more days, and it should be fine......"

】

The huge body does not mean that the life class is in a high position, and when it encounters the curse of spontaneous combustion at the conceptual level, turning its huge vitality into firewood, it burns more vigorously and burns for a longer time.

Unfortunately, until the fire was completely extinguished, the original camp would not be usable...... After all, it is with it that the curse spreads at its core.

And if the fire is really extinguished, will the camp still work?

"Is the spellcaster still alive......"

This is obviously the result of playing with, the concept, the rule-based curse, basically there is a certain connection between the two.

And Omori Mu has not yet "burned" to death, and the casters who are the source naturally have to bear the reaction force of the curse.

In a sense, the two sides have become wrestlers on both sides of the tug-of-war, the kind where the loser falls into the cliff.

“....... It's okay, at least they're all alive, but not necessarily after a while. ”

Fortunately, they joined forces to cast the spell, and everyone carried the curse together..... Now it's up to who can survive whom, whether the tree dies first or the man dies first.

Rule-based and conceptual capabilities are always a double-edged sword, either they don't work, and when they take effect, they often mean some kind of "absolute priority", which naturally means higher risks and costs.

Why not interrupt? I am afraid that at the beginning of the design of this curse, there was no consideration of what the situation is "burned, but it cannot be burned".

It is also possible that it is just a simple curse that is out of control, but in fact, there is no essential difference, it is a strange scene of tug-of-war with life.

Depending on the situation, there is a high chance that the tree will die first, but if one or two people in the caster can't hold it first, it can also cause an avalanche of chain reactions.

In this conceptual level of wrestling, outsiders are not able to intervene in most cases, but now, it is not "most cases.......

"I have a bit of a special self-healing ability that should work."

At this time, Lu Ping'an took the initiative to stand up.

Whether it was to make a good impression on the future mentor or to take the initiative among the explorers, Lu Ping'an had no intention of hiding.

Besides, away from home, there is also that profession that is more popular and protected than "milk".

"Really?" Immediately, the teacher was overjoyed.

-------

------

"Boom!"

Not long after Lu Ping'an followed the hurried Teacher Zhang in, when the others were still busy with the things in their hands, suddenly, the flames on the periphery were much stronger.

In an instant, the heat wave hit, which was a little unbearable.

And after the initial shock and scorching, everyone reacted.

This should be good news, the flame burns more vigorously, and naturally the effect of the "Spontaneous Combustion Curse" has become stronger.

And then, behind the overjoyed Teacher Zhang, one by one the teachers of the Flame Department who were originally lying down also came out, which naturally confirmed that everything was improving.

“...... So likely, they couldn't move a few hours ago. ”

"What healing power is so outrageous.......

"Maybe it's not the healing ability of the healer department at all, in this level of soul confrontation, the help of a healer who can only heal the body is extremely limited, didn't our healer say that he basically can't help."

"Rule-based, healing..... You see that their spirits have also recovered, which is very abnormal. ”

Under the discussion of the people, the flame also burned even more vigorously.

The teachers, who had been lying for several days, were also excited to move their bodies, and the better their condition, the faster the trees would die.

And Lu Ping'an himself appeared for the first time as a healer in front of the explorers of the ancient city.
