Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Birth of a Goblin
Since he decided to help Professor Flitwick, Brie didn't mind giving the patriarch some suggestive clues, anyway, Brie wasn't lying, he was just focusing on the abyss and doing some guidance, he was an honest kid who wouldn't lie.
Brie winked at Professor Flitwick, motioning for him to take advantage of the patriarch's attention to the abyss in order to find an opportunity to access the passage to the top.
As the head of Ravenclaw's goblin hybrid, Professor Flitwick was not a dead brain, he immediately put aside his self-blame and began to plan his actions for a while.
Professor Flitwick nodded to Anos, and Anos said to the Patriarch, "Father, let's cast the elf's shielding magic first, maybe this ancient magic can resist that dead breath and let us go down and investigate." β
A brief exposure to death can cause the elves to temporarily lose control of their magical powers, but they only need to rest for a while to recover, which is why the patriarch agreed to let Flitwick and Anos go to the Abyss.
"Hmm." The patriarch nodded slightly, his gaze sharpened a little, he stretched out his hand, and there was a smell of grass and trees around his body, and he carried a rough ring on his hand, and the ring emitted a brilliant green light.
The plants on the ground were arranged in an orderly manner, gradually spreading out of the root system and taking root towards the ground, and then soon the plants shook together, and one after another magic fluctuations appeared.
Anos took the opportunity to pull out a shrunken wooden shield, which was an alchemy item he had made in advance.
Placing the token on top of the magic fluctuations, the patriarch stared, and a fairy magic poured from his palm to the plants, and soon the plants began to wither, and their power turned into magic words, which were engraved on the shield.
This is the plant alchemy of the ancient tree elves.
Brie felt novel, this is really an alternative alchemy method, relying on the power of plants, and there is no need to refine potions, so some disgusting materials do not have to be handled by themselves!
"The wizarding world is always amazing."
Brie exclaimed, and Professor Flitwick nodded, this was the magic he had always wanted to learn, but this was only the tip of the iceberg, and the use of plants for blessing and curse magic was also very mysterious.
"This shield can only protect one person, and in order to ensure its strength, so the timeliness is sacrificed, we only have one day, those plant materials are very scarce, we have not planted them for hundreds of years, and it is difficult to find a second copy for the time being."
"One day is enough, we just need to find someone to write down the ancient magic texts on the abyss." Anos took the shield and led the group towards the largest grotto passage.
At the very end of the passage, there is a stone door that only the patriarch can open.
The patriarch raised his right hand, and the ring flashed with magic fluctuations, and the stone door slowly opened, followed by a cold air.
Brie cast a warm spell on herself and Nicol, and then passed through the stone gate with the others.
"Uhhhhhh
Passing through the stone gate is a waste stone area, the craggy rocks are placed in a disorderly manner, and if you don't pay attention to the sharp stones under your feet, you will be scratched by sharp stones, Brie walks a little carefully, because there is still a smell of corruption between these stones, and it looks a little weird.
"The dead air of the abyss is beginning to fill..."
Anos said the bad news, the patriarch's face was already pale, Flitwick crouched down, felt the breeze between the stones, and said, "It's indeed caused by the dead air, but these breaths only have some blocking effect on the operation of the magic power." β
The patriarch also squatted down, he felt a slight piercing chill and said, "It's a serious blockage, and I can only drive the magic power of the fifth layer here." β
When Flitwick heard this, he immediately looked at Anos, and it was clear that everyone was suffering from a different situation.
"I don't feel hindered, maybe this thing is useless to wizards." Brie looked at Professor Flitwick and said, "I think it's something that was created against the old tree elves. β
"Nicol, do you feel the magic hindering you?"
Nicol was a little sullen because he had been reprimanded by Brie before, but when he heard Brie's words, he immediately replied, "No, Dad, Nicol didn't feel it." β
Hearing the conversation between Brie and Nicol, the patriarch's face turned strange, this could be something for the ancient tree elves.
"This must be removed!" The patriarch said sharply, and the voice rang out in this empty cave, and even Brie felt the killing intent in the patriarch's voice.
Scold.
Brie darkened his eyes, if he couldn't deal with these things, could this patriarch still want to kill him?
Professor Flitwick grabbed Brie by the shoulder and pulled him to his side.
"Let's go over there and have a look." Professor Flitwick pointed to the place where he and Anos were in danger, and Anos, who was still stunned by Brie's words, came back to his senses.
"Okay, let's go check it out first."
Anos looked around worriedly, feeling a trace of magic obstruction in his body, and his whole person looked very tired.
"Anosβ" The patriarch glanced at his son, and then followed Flitvier as well.
"I'm sorry, father, I believe in Filius, heβhe's always been a good old tree elf." Anos blushed, looked at Flitwick shyly, and then touched his tightened corset.
The ancient tree goblin has a rule that the patriarch's lineage cannot be changed, and only men can inherit the position of the patriarch and bring peace to the goblins, but the patriarch has a daughter, and his mother died in childbirth, so in the patriarch's lineage, there is only one descendant, if there is no male patriarch standing, it will cause turmoil in the ancient tree goblin clan.
The current ancient tree goblin clan can't withstand such a panic, so the patriarch came up with a solution, that is, to use the female generation as a young patriarch for the time being, unless Anos gives birth to a male grandson, otherwise the patriarch will never allow Anos to return to women's clothing.
β¦β¦
"Oude, you can go to the left in a moment, there is a cave over there, climb up to find the ventricles, and Anos and I will come over soon."
When Brie heard Flitwick's words, he quickly nodded and said, "Professor, be careful yourself. β
Who knows if this patriarch, who is facing the extinction of the race, will make a move to kill the half-blood goblin.
At this time, the patriarch and Anos had already come behind Flitvier, and Anos took out his shield and prepared to go down, but the patriarch stopped him and said, "I don't know if you can ask the guests to try it, this may be a disaster for the ancient tree goblins, but it may not have any effect on the wizard." β
Brie said ungracefully, "I'm not obligated to do anything dangerous for the sake of the ancient tree elves. β
The patriarch smiled and raised his hand.
Flitwick and Anos saw it and immediately stopped it.
Two wooden vines appeared in the hands of the patriarch.
"Blessing of the Ancient Tree!"
The wooden vines turned into two giant pythons full of black blood, and a blessed power swung out of the hands of the fairy patriarch and attached to the giant python, making the giant python even stronger.
The python rushed towards Flitvier and Anos, Flitwick was worthy of being the champion of the dueling masters, and a spell was quickly issued, and the surrounding stones gathered one after another, turning into stone eagles, tearing at the python.
"Anos, don't forget that you are a young patriarch!"
The patriarch looked at Anos, who took out his spear to fight against the giant python, and immediately said in a loud voice: "Do you want to let the ancient tree goblin clan perish, maybe let this kid Flitwick go down!" β
Anos hesitated, and the strength of the battle weakened a lot, seeing this, the patriarch immediately looked at Bri and said, "Maybe you can let the flower elf go down and try." β
"Daddy, let me go down." Nicol glared at the patriarch with wide eyes.
"You bad guy, my dad still wants to help you, but you are uneasy and kind, it's so dark down there, it's too dangerous!"
At this time, everyone was already beside the abyss, and there was no background under the abyss, and there was a black fog floating on it like ocean waves, which was thrilling, as if it was going to swallow people down.
Brie pressed the restless Nicol and looked at the patriarch with a cold face.
The patriarch was furious, and a wooden flower appeared in front of him, and soon the petals of the wooden flower fell, flew towards Bri, and landed at his feet and turned into a swamp, spreading towards him.
"Looks like I'm going to have to drop you down."
Brie didn't take a step back, and continued to look at the fairy patriarch.
"I think you're getting the situation wrong."
Threat, it's something Brie hates.
"Patriarch, stop!" Flitwick had already disposed of the python and was heading towards Brie, but Brie didn't want Professor Flitsch to persuade him.
"Wind!"
"Boom!"
Hurricanes swept up beside Brie, sending him into the air, and the swamp on the ground was swept up by the wind, and the black dead air melted into it.
"What... What, it's not wizard magic! β
The fairy patriarch raised his head in shock, and couldn't help but take a few steps back.
"Father!"
The hurricane swept away, looming over the elf patriarch.
"Blessing of the Ancient Tree!"
The ring on the fairy patriarch's hand conjured up a huge tree shadow, enveloping him in it, and the black wind blew, and the giant tree kept trembling, and it was obvious that this dead air also had a suppressive effect on the ring.
Anos shouted, "Wizard boy, remove the magic!" β
With a wave of his hand, a black wall of wind blocked Flitwick and Anos, but the two of them didn't care about the damage caused by the death qi to them, and immediately crossed over.
"Ugh!"
The power of death poured into their bodies, causing their magic to stagnate, but Brie's wall of wind was not thick, so their magic was quickly regaining control.
"Hmph." Brie snorted coldly, and ordered the natural magic in the environment to gather again, and poured the death qi into the giant tree phantom of the fairy patriarch.
"Bang!"
"Father!"
"Poof!"
The fairy patriarch was knocked aside by Brie, and the ring on his hand was swept up by the breeze and delivered to Brie.
"I don't think I can trust the ancient tree goblin now, so I accepted this apology in advance."
Putting the ring in his pocket and staring at him with wide eyes, he watched Brie play with adoration, and Brie poured the surrounding death gas into the abyss with the wind, causing ripples.
"I think now we can just go up." Brie said to Professor Flitwick, who was full of confusion, "Don't worry, the power of the ring protected him just now, hey, isn't he standing up well now?" β
The fairy patriarch stared at Brie warily and forced himself to his feet.
"Wow...", the collision just now made him spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Father!" Anos hurriedly grabbed the elf patriarch and looked coldly at Brie, then at Flitwick.
"Philius!"
Professor Flitwick held Brie behind him and said firmly, "He's my student, and I'm not bringing him here to put him in danger!" β
"Anos, there is nothing wrong with Ode in this matter!"
Arnos clenched his fists, but he knew that his father couldn't fight against Brie, who could manipulate the wind to kill him, so he wasn't an opponent either.
"Professor Flitwick, I think we can continue with the first plan, we're not ready to go down, are we?"
