Chapter 5: Side quests?

The people who had fled looked suspicious, the road was very short, and it seemed that it was only a few minutes before they reached the border of the forest.

When flying in the sky during the day, it feels like the forest is endless, and there is no end in sight.

"Brother Wang, what's going on, why did a road suddenly appear?" , Liu Shuo looked around in disbelief.

Now they are in a plain, although there is only a line of separation from the forest, but the suffocating uneasiness has completely disappeared.

The golden road was like a warm hand that soothed their fearful hearts.

"I don't know, but I'm saved", Wang Xiaozhi looked at the depths of the dark forest, the golden road appeared just right, although he was a little puzzled, but it was not a good place to think at this moment.

"Find a safe place nearby, let's get in order first, there are still many unknowns ahead, and it is as dangerous as a headless fly," he comforted his frightened sister in his arms, and then looked ahead.

Ma Chi and Liu Shuo began to shout in the crowd according to his words, and if someone commanded them, the action would be much faster.

For the sake of safety, no open flames were erected, and everyone sat in a circle, some of whom had been wounded in the battle, and doctors were helping to treat them.

Some people heard Zhang Er's don't beat on the stone platform before, and they also saw him running outside, but no one said anything here.

Just secretly in the crowd, looking for the person who may be the one who opened the golden path.

However, when the sky was too dark and there was no open flame, the visibility was almost none, which made this small group of people give up the search.

Wang Xiaozhi sat on the stone, recalling everything that happened just now, "Those plants are not particularly powerful, even the superpowers used by those children can be wiped out at will."

"It started in the sky, maybe it was only because of the surprise that it caused such a loss, otherwise there should be a lot of people left"

"And the ability of these people..."

In addition to the basic flame thunder and lightning, there are also the ability to attach limbs, laser eyes, light knives, these abilities that I have never experienced before, and I can see them clearly just now.

"It seems that the abilities that each oracle bestows on the trialist are not exactly the same."

Wang Xiaozhi was thinking about it, and a hand suddenly appeared in the darkness, slowly putting it on his arm, warm and trembling a little.

turned his head, only to find that it was actually L City, the well-known female artist, Wen Xiaoxiao.

"What are you doing?" , how could he not know what this woman was here for, but she just had to pretend to be the same.

"Brother Wang, I'm afraid, can you let me follow your team, the night here makes me nervous", the pitiful look in her eyes made people feel pity.

As he spoke, his body slowly leaned over, and he stuck it in Wang Xiaozhi's arms.

Such a beauty, an unattainable goddess on weekdays, now takes the initiative to give her arms, how can Wang Xiaozhi not be moved.

It can be said that a person's beauty, plus any card is a king bomb, only education, IQ, talent, single out is a dead end.

She is a smart person, otherwise she would not be in the so-called entertainment industry, so many years of crawling and rolling, and she is still so popular.

The unknown world, terrible monsters, this is too dangerous for a woman, especially Wen Xiaoxiao, a celebrity and delicate flower, only attached, just like just entering the entertainment industry.

Of all the people here, only Wang Xiaozhi is the only one, and the one who is safer with him is around. Wen Xiaoxiao saw the desire in his eyes through the darkness and smiled inwardly.

She has seen too much of this look, her face is like a full moon under this dark reflection, and her voice is still soft: "Brother Wang, is it good", Wen Xiaoxiao leaned into his ear, with a hint of warmth in his words, and the wind from his mouth blew Wang Xiao's heart itched.

This series of actions is extremely skillful, and it seems that the man is just a puppet for her to achieve her goal, obedient and well-behaved.

Both of them have their own ghosts.

"It depends on what you do", he said, kicked Liu Shuo who was squinting next to him, motioned to take care of Wang Xiaoyi who was resting over there, and then picked up the beauty and disappeared into the darkness.

This is what Wang Xiaozhi has always desired, power, power, as long as he has it, wealth and color will be easily held in his hands.

Those who admired Wen Xiaoxiao saw it, but they only thought about it in their hearts, or scolded it.

Wang Xiaozhi's strength is obvious to all, who dares to go up and say something. When power reigns supreme, language is nothing more than a throbbing of life and death.

And Wen Xiaoxiao's choice also caused the team of more than 200 people to begin to fall apart the next morning.

In the end, it became seven teams, some with hundreds of people, just like Wang Xiaozhi's team, and some only sporadic a few people huddled together to keep warm.

Most of them just want to live, and only people with desires have walked into the big family of 100 people, ready to move.

Wang Xiaozhi also knows that not all of these people are loyal, but someone is enough, the road ahead is still unknown, and he needs someone to help him explore the way.

The road to becoming a god is close at hand.

Zhang Er, near the stone platform, shivered in the early morning breeze.

"Well... The eyelids are so heavy... Don't sleep for a while."

"Wait?"

Zhang Er was suddenly stunned, his waist suddenly exerted force, and a beautiful carp stiffened and successfully fell back, which also made his heavy eyelids completely open.

"Am I alright?" , He carefully groped his body and found that none of the hairs were missing.

Even on the ground, after he slept in the mud last night, the impression was not touched at all.

"He's finally awake..."

"Isn't it really going to cut us down?"

"Stop talking, he should be able to understand us"

"Oh... Well..."

Conversation in the dense forest suddenly stopped.

Hearing this, Zhang Er was stunned and thought, "Could it be... These trees are afraid of me? ”

"But why?"

The feeling of a foreign object in his hand made him turn his gaze, and a quaint stone needle lay quietly in his hand.

Only then did I remember that it was because of this thing that I pulled this thing off yesterday and opened the way.

"Are they scared of this?" Thinking of this, Zhang Er's brain began to run wildly, and his scalp gradually felt itchy.

Finally he grinned, and an idea came to him.

He stood up, his eyes unscrupulously scanned all the towering trees in front of him, "Ahem, why don't you speak, didn't you drink my blood and eat my bones yesterday?" ”

This clever little head turned around and understood that the monster was afraid of what was in his hand, and the treasure was already in his hands, so why couldn't he be arrogant.

But after waiting for a while, there was no response, and he casually walked under a tree, and as if unintentionally, he pierced the stone needle in his hand on the trunk.

"Oops! Don't! ”

This scream made him extremely sure that the needle in his hand was a treasure!

And the monsters they have turned into big trees are afraid of this thing!

"Don't waste time, tell me everything you know, otherwise~", Zhang Er withdrew the stone needle and looked at the big tree in front of him.

The threat in the eyes is unscrupulous.

Soon behind the tree in front of him, hundreds of dark green spots of light began to condense, and a young man walked out, his face handsome but with a hint of ancient charm.

Hands folded, his movements seemed to come from a long time ago, and he looked at Zhang Er with some embarrassment, "That... Predecessor... No, this master..."

"I'm just, one of the tree demons in this forest... Maybe I don't know what you want to know."

"Stinky boy, you play with me", the needle in Zhang's second hand came out of his hand, and when the man reacted, it was already close to his throat, quietly floating in the air.

It seems that as long as he looks at him, it will penetrate in an instant.

The man felt the feeling of a strong divine mansion in his throat, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

How could he have imagined that a thing used to open the way on this stone tablet actually contained an incomparably huge amount of power, and he felt a little suffocated just by approaching him.

Of course, Zhang Er didn't know about this, he just felt that these monsters, afraid of this needle, must be a very lethal baby.

The man's face was embarrassed, but the stone needle was getting closer and closer, and he gritted his teeth and was about to speak, but behind him was a hundred dark green fluorescent colors that quickly condensed.

"This gentleman... Don't be embarrassed about this kid."

Behind the voice, an old man, dressed in a pale green costume, with a cane the thickness of an arm on his left hand, swayed back and forth as he walked, and there was a faint glimmer of light, following left and right.

The old man's face was wrinkled, but his eyes were bright, and he seemed to know that he should be a monster that had lived for at least a few hundred years.

He leaned over and slowly lowered his cane to the ground to show that he was not a threat.

And behind him, there are many fluorescent spots, sitting on the ground, are children conjured up by tree spirits, flashing their eyes and looking curiously, this Zhang Er who can understand what they are saying.

"This gentleman, you want to know, I can tell you everything, but the old slave has a request"

When Zhang Er heard this, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and no matter how much he observed, he was also vigilant around.

After a long time, I didn't feel any sense of crisis, so I slowly spoke, "What request?" ”

When the old man heard his question, he smiled heartily and slowly straightened up, "Presumably you are, the trialist."

After he finished speaking, his eyes shot directly into Zhang Er's eyes, as if waiting for affirmation.

"Yes", Zhang Er nodded, and didn't say anything more.

The old man smiled slightly, and the words in his mouth came slowly: "The gods create creatures here, and each god mansion has integrated a part of its own power into the earth, this forest, called the snake forest"

"Its owner, a goddess"

"It's been too long, I've forgotten how many years have passed, the last time the portal was opened, it was three thousand years ago"

"It may be that most of the creatures here, taking care of their own reproduction, have long forgotten their original mission."

"All in their own regions, reign as kings"

Zhang Er frowned, "respective regions? Could it be that there are many areas like this in this proving ground? ”

The old man nodded, and said, "I want to ask you, in the sandstone plain, to take back the source of life of our clan."

"In return, I will give half of the map of the continent and the treasure that has passed the trial of my clan"

He picked his ears, "No, it stands to reason that you can get it through it, and you can't beat me, why do I have to help you?" ”

As he spoke, the stone needle quietly floated up and slowly fell to Zhang Shuang's heart.

The words in his mouth sounded in the old man's ears, making him feel powerless for a while, but then he looked at Zhang Er and said categorically.

"The map is very important here, although we of the Ancient Demon Tree clan only own half of it, but its rarity is immeasurable."

"If you have, you will definitely reach the end first of most trialists."

Zhang Er thought for a moment, "So, the map will be a guide?" ", he muttered to himself.

Seeing a trace of eagerness flashing on the old man's face, Zhang Er smiled in his heart, "Not enough"

"Greed is not a very good habit", the old man took a deep breath, and seemed to be very dissatisfied with Zhang Er, but the stone needle in his hand did not dare to attack easily.

Then he gritted his teeth a little helplessly, "My clan, the body damage can be healed quickly through sunlight in a short time, as a trialist, you can absorb the talent of Warcraft, I can give it to you"

These should not have been known to Zhang Er, although the trialist can conquer the Warcraft through his strong strength, but only then will the Warcraft voluntarily contribute to his own ability.

But after the origin was snatched away by the damn scorpion in the sandstone plain a hundred years ago, the juniors in the clan became more and more depressed, and it is estimated that it will not be long before they will be unable to absorb the origin.

The snake forest will become a lifeless dead forest.

He was gambling that Zhang Er had the ability to help him get it back, because without their origin, they didn't even have the strength to step out of the forest.

"This ability?" , Zhang Er was stunned, this ability is a bit perverted! Isn't this just Deadpool the same as Wolverine! It's just that you need to absorb the sun, and it's really a little bit, but compared to your own skills, it's simply an S level.

Forced to endure ecstasy, he paused, "Then that's the only way, I guess you won't be able to come up with anything good."

"What about the treasure that passed the trial?"

The old man's face was sad... Take another deep breath and make a move into the forest with one hand.

A pale green light cluster flew quickly in front of the two.

As the light dimmed, so did the contents inside.

It was a dagger, two inches long, with an emerald green handle and an inky black blade, like a sapling that had just broken through the ground, full of life.

"This treasure, called the Green Blade, cannot be said to be indestructible, but when attacking, it can absorb the blood of living beings and grow."

"No one has ever seen its final form, so I don't know how much monster blood it needs to absorb."

The old man picked up the green blade and sent it to Zhang Er.

"After you leave the Snake Forest, it will be a sandstone plain, and after you take back the source, you use it to knock on the rhizome under the tree outside the Snake Forest, and we will come to pick you up."

"When the time comes, the map and the ability will be sent together"

Zhang Er took the dagger, a little confused, "But when I enter the plain, where do I go to find it?" ”

"Don't worry, they will appear on their own, just like us", the old man nodded, and then his figure slowly retreated, picking up the path that slowly unfolded from the shade of the trees, and went straight to the outside world in front of Zhang Er.

Putting away the green blade, Zhang Er smiled slightly, "I thought it was unlucky, but I actually got a side quest." ”
