Chapter 9: The Inner Ghost

Mushroom garden.

The focus of the conflict between the offensive and defensive sides has shifted from the ground to the air!

The captains and vice-captains of the North Island Warlock Regiment, Reed and Ace, are both dragon vein warlocks in the late fourth order.

The character is like the corresponding dragon of its bloodline, brutal and ruthless!

Reed and Ace have already started the fourth-order atavism.

The red and white dragons swooped down in turn, towards the crowded area of the defenders, spitting dragon breath.

Fire and cold snaps alternately ravaged the mushroom orchard.

After three rounds of dives, the number of warlocks killed by Dragon's Breath on the defending side has reached double digits!

The environment in the areas where the two sides are fighting has also been severely damaged.

In the mushroom garden, large mushroom forests were ignited by the flames spewed by the red dragon, billowing black smoke.

Like huge torches, this dark area is illuminated as bright as day.

The aborigines of the mushroom orchard, the mushroom people who have no quarrel with the world, were affected by the war.

Mushrooms burned or frozen to death lay down in the woods.

The survivors fled their homes in a hurry and took refuge in the place where the fungus owner was.

"Huh?! This strong mental fluctuation ......"

On the edge of the battlefield, Alan suddenly stopped.

Raise your hand to support your forehead and feel a strong spiritual impact!

When he turns on the state of "other heart connection", his spiritual sense is particularly sensitive, and he can feel mental fluctuations that ordinary people cannot detect.

It is possible to communicate directly with ghosts, spirits, goblins, and other beings, including mushrooms.

Unable to speak, the mushroom will spread psychic spores when it is in danger to warn its fellow people and call for help.

At this moment, Alan felt a lot of pain, anxiety and despair of mental fluctuations, it was the mushroom trapped in the fire asking for help!

On top of these faint spiritual fluctuations, there is also a spiritual fluctuation that envelops the entire mushroom garden, which is even more extensive!

Alan knew that this was a psychic signal from the Germ Master.

Although the fungus owner is strong, it can't fly.

Can't get rid of the red dragon Reed who is setting fire everywhere.

What's more, the fungus owner itself also has the weakness of being afraid of fire and flammable.

In the face of the rapidly spreading fire, not only could they not protect the mushroom people, but they were even unable to protect themselves.

In the mental fluctuations she exuded, Alan felt intense anger and helplessness.

The mild-tempered fungus owner couldn't help but get angry......

One can imagine how seriously the war has caused damage to the ecology of the mushroom orchard.

If this continues, sooner or later, the mushroom garden will be completely destroyed.

On both sides of the offensive and defensive sides, many warlocks were sacrificed in vain.

The result is that the bamboo basket is empty.

No one wants to possess this secret realm!

Alan sighed.

This is not the result he wants to see.

So, he turned around and walked to the place where the mushroom man was trapped.

The fire was raging, blocking the way forward.

Eren raised his hand, silently urging the magic.

The palms are as clear as jade, exuding cold air.

Swish!

With a wave of his hand, a cold snap swept across the fire.

The flames that were burning vigorously were instantly extinguished by the palm wind.

Alan waved his palms together, slamming out the flames piece by piece.

The ground, exposed to scorched earth emitting black smoke.

As the fire progresses, the temperature gradually rises.

Normal people in this environment have long been scorched.

Alan is not afraid.

In addition to the "Ice Palm", which has the function of extinguishing fires, Alan also wears a fire-resistant ring on his hand.

Even if you walk in the lava, you won't get burned.

It took two minutes for Alan to extinguish the fire.

Rescue a group of mushrooms hiding in a hole in the ground.

"It's dangerous here, go find the fungus master!"

Eren uses his mind to urge an older mushroom.

The mushroom elder, who drooped his beard like flowing mycelium, nodded gratefully to Allen, dragged his family and embarked on the road of escape.

Allen's figure disappeared into a cloud of silver mist.

Teleport to the center of the next fire, extinguish the fire with a wave of your hand, and rescue the mushroom trapped here.

He is not some kind of virgin.

The reason why the fire was extinguished and people was saved was just to save the mushroom garden.

The ownership of the Mushroom Garden Secret Realm is one of the focal points of the negotiations between the Silvermoon Monastery and the Aushima Federation.

If the secret realm is destroyed by fire, the Silvermoon Monastery will be unprofitable, and the premise of the alliance will no longer exist.

Red Dragon Reed, perhaps it was through this that he recklessly set fire to the fire.

The secret realm that you can't get yourself, others can't even think of!

Alan looked up at the arrogant red dragon from afar.

There was a murderous intent in his eyes!

However, there is another person who has already preempted him and challenged the red dragon Reed.

Pamela is also aware of the sinister intentions of the red dragon Reed.

Open the Fourth-Order Atavism and transform into a Giant Storm Elemental.

Huge storm clouds, accompanied by thunder and lightning, soar into the sky!

The arrogant red dragon is extremely small compared to the thundercloud storm incarnated by Pamela.

Alan exhaled slowly.

With Pamela's strength, dealing with the red dragon Reed is a piece of cake.

His gaze turned to another scourge in the air.

White Dragon Ace!

Alan raised his hand and waved it as if caressing the strings.

Five-fingered flicks, whistling out!

The white dragon hovering in the air noticed the momentum attacking from below, and relied on the dragon scales to protect his body, disdainful of dodging.

However, he soon paid the price for his hubris.

Bang bang!!

The five-fingered bullet hit the white dragon's abdomen.

Smash the dragon scales and splatter blood!

White Dragon Ace roared in pain.

Spread the wide dragon wings, and it was not easy to stabilize the body.

The white-robed young man who was attacking him suddenly swooped down, like a pale meteor!

Alan stood in place, his hands in his hands, his face expressionless.

As he expected.

White Dragon Ace swooped down to a height of about twenty meters above the ground, suddenly opened his mouth, and spewed out a white cold current.

In the face of the surging dragon's breath, Eren did not move.

After the white dragon Ace vomited, he habitually spread his wings and flew high.

Turning his head to glance, expecting to see an ice sculpture.

The scene that catches your eye is unexpected!

Eren didn't turn into an ice sculpture.

I can't even see the slightest frost flower on my body!

The "Tears of the Mother Serpent" that she carries with her is immune to all cold damage up to level 7.

A 4th-order warlock, an atavistic dragon, and a cold current that spews out, at most it is equivalent to 5 rings of ice magic.

Blowing on Allen's body is tantamount to a soft spring breeze.

A sneer tugged at the corner of his lips.

Alan slowly raised his right hand.

The silver vortex that rotates at high speed in the palm of your hand releases a powerful gravitational field!

"Get me down!"

Allen grabbed it in the air, and the "Vortex Dragon Claw" was launched!

White Dragon Ace was immediately captured by the gravitational field.

Like a fly falling into an invisible net, no matter how desperately he struggles, he can't get rid of the terrifying gravitational pull!

Boom!!

Ace, the white dragon, fell heavily to the ground.

There were multiple fractures on his body, and the pain was severe.

Suddenly, my eyes were dark and my consciousness was blurred.

β€œΓΊré!”

Alan calmly chanted the incantation and released the 4 rings of the "Fire Wall Technique".

A circle of flames rose from the ground, gathered upwards, and capped up.

It was as if a huge red cover was clasped upside down on the white dragon.

A hemispherical wall of fire, every few seconds, erupts inwards with a wave of flames.

It's hot enough to melt steel!

The white dragon Ace, who fell unconscious, suddenly woke up under the stimulation of burning pain!

Surrounded by blazing flames, he was so scared that he almost went incontinent!

White dragon, a cold subspecies, is afraid of fire by nature!

If it continues to be scorched by the flames, it will not last more than two minutes, and it will turn into a large roast chicken!

White Dragon Ace, enduring the flames and thick smoke, desperately spewing cold air, slightly suppressing the wall of fire, and taking the opportunity to rush out!

However, as soon as the front foot stepped out of the wall of fire, a strong repulsion came at him.

A hundred steps away on the opposite side, Allen's five fingers were curled, like dragon claws.

The silver swirls in the palm of your hand are rotating in a counterclockwise direction.

Since coming to the mushroom garden, Eren has also enjoyed the benefits of the Time Secret Realm.

Six days of practice in the mushroom garden is only equivalent to one day in the outside world.

Taking advantage of this convenience, Eren worked hard to train the dragon's claws.

cultivated this fifth-order martial art to the realm of Xiaocheng.

Vortex dragon claw, starting from the small stage, can be reversed!

Reversing the dragon's claw, the gravitational field becomes a repulsive field.

Alan pushes flat through the air.

A strong repulsion force exerted on Ace.

The white dragon, who had managed to escape from the fire, blasted it back into the Fire Wall Purgatory with one palm, and continued to endure the scorching flames.

Surrounded by the wall of fire, the white dragon Ace screamed mournfully.

Call for help to his good brother Red Dragon Reed.

However, the scarlet scales scattered in the night sky indicate that the red dragon Reed is not having a good time either.

is tired of parrying Pamela's indiscriminate bombardment, how can he have the spare strength to rescue his companions?!

Others couldn't count on it, so White Dragon Ace had to fend for himself.

Support to open the "Any Door" and try to escape from the mushroom garden.

Shout!

Behind the white dragon, a beam of green light suddenly shot out.

The "Arbitrary Door" that has just been opened is sealed by the "Dimensional Anchor".

The will of the white dragon Ace also collapsed with the "Arbitrary Gate".

Sonia stood in the dim woods.

staring at the desperate and struggling white dragon, the corners of his lips rose slightly.

"Sister Sonia, you ......"

Tauna walked up to her, her watery blue eyes full of confusion.

"White Dragon Ace, aren't you allies of the Human Demon Sect? Why plot against him? ”

Sonia smiled and reached out to caress the girl's hair.

"I have no personal relationship with White Dragon Ace, and his opponent is my husband! If you were me, what would you choose? ”

Tao Na frowned and couldn't help but complain.

"Sister Sonia, your husband...... How many good sisters does he have? ”

Sonia shrugged and spread her hands.

"As far as I know, there are not many sisters, but there are many sisters."

"I admire Senior Brother Allen's strength, but he is ...... in terms of interacting with men and women It doesn't seem to be very scrupulous! ”

Tao Nake seized the opportunity to take revenge on the big carrot and complained to Sonia.

"I'll tell you, Sister Sonia, as soon as Senior Brother Allen came to the mushroom garden, he was merciful and merciful......"

"First seduced Sister Julie, and then got very close to Pamela!"

"How can you get it if it goes on like this?!"

"Sister Sonia, why don't you care about him?"

Sonia spread her hands and smiled wryly.

"Please, what can I do?!"

"Then again, why did Eren just let you go, a cutie, and didn't seduce?"

Tauna snorted and rolled her eyes.

"I have a feud with him many years ago!"

"How dare he seduce me? Scratch his face! ”

Sonia couldn't help but smile and kissed her pink little face.

Originally, she wanted to tell Tauna that she was in the mushroom garden many years ago, and she only came to save her for the sake of Allen's face.

However, considering that Allen hid his identity at the time, it is not appropriate to disclose this matter in order to prevent Tao Na from suspecting that the death of her uncle Han Ning is related to him.

"Sister Sonia! You're in good shape......" Tao Na's face flushed, and her voice was shy, "Can I hug you?" ”

Sonia smiled indifferently and took the initiative to hug her.

……

The hot wind blows and the flames rise.

Allen's eyes were slightly condensed, focusing on the remote control "Fire Wall Technique".

It wasn't until the white dragon Ace was roasted to the point of dying that the spell was canceled.

The wall of fire was extinguished.

Alan stepped forward, and with a wave of his left hand, he threw out a bone whip, wrapped around the blackened white dragon, and dragged him over.

Whew!

Whew!

Allen's right hand is infused with a "steel crack rake", using his hand as a knife, and he continuously chops and cuts.

Remove all the limbs and wings of the white dragon Ace and turn it into a dying dragon stick.

"Don't you want to fall into the devil?"

Alan shook his head in disappointment.

"There's no way, after all, you have to rely on inducerin."

Burst!

Bone spurs are inserted into the white dragon's body, and a unit of Panethin-inducer is injected.

Induce the enchantment, take effect as scheduled!

A dragon vein warlock in the late fourth order, atavistic to his ancestors, and crazy hair!

Cultivation instantly broke through to the early stage of the fifth order!

If White Dragon Ace still has combat effectiveness, Allen's move is tantamount to setting himself on fire and asking for hardship.

However, he had already taken precautions in advance and trimmed the white dragon into a dragon stick.

Losing his limbs and wings, what about the fifth-order demonic white dragon?

Sorry, it's not just a piece of meat on the chopping board!

The enchanted white dragon, his eyes were bloodshot and red, supporting the last dragon breath that spat at Allen!

After entering the demon, Ace's dragon breath was raised to level 6!

A cold snap is coming......

Alan is like a spring breeze.

With the "tears of the snake mother", why be afraid?

Against the cold snap, he strode forward.

"Bone Shattering" Double Hit!

Directly blow up the head of the demon white dragon.

Next, it's time for a blissful meal.

Eren extracted the essence of the white dragon's bloodline and devoured the flesh and blood.

Roast the dragon meat yourself, and the heat is just right!

Alan did a "seasoning technique".

Top roast meat, only the simplest seasoning, pepper and salt are sufficient.

Didi –

"Eat a special ingredient: the blood of the white dragon!"

"Potential +3!"

"Physique +1!"

"Eat special ingredients: white dragon offal (including basal blood vessels)!"

"Potential +3!"

"Physique +1!"

Current attributes: Physique 45, Agility 31, Spirit 51

Potential Reserve: 11 points

……

Pick up a handkerchief and wipe the corners of your mouth.

Alan nodded in satisfaction.

The fifth-order demon white dragon produces two special ingredients, with a total of 6 potentials!

Unfortunately, the same type of dragon blood dragon meat can only be benefited when you eat it for the first time.

Eating the white dragon Ace, Alan is still unsatisfied.

Licking his lips, his gaze cast into the night sky.

It's a pity.

The red dragon Reed has been badly wounded by Pamela and fled with his tail between his legs.

Alan didn't want to be too eye-catching in front of Pamela and steal the limelight.

Abandon the idea of chasing the red dragon and send a message to Sonia instead.

Remind her that tonight's battle is coming to an end.

Take Marlowe and Hugo and get out of the way!

……

The day after the attack on the mushroom farm.

Bang!

In the conference room, Hicks stood up with anger.

"First of all, make a statement!"

"I completely agree with Senior Brother Marven's speculation!"

"The facts are ...... Among us, there is an inner ghost! ”

"Otherwise, how can you explain that the enemy knows the teleportation secret language to enter the secret realm, and he still rushes to launch a sneak attack at the moment when the night patrol team is out of manpower?!"

"This matter must be held accountable to the end!"

"Strict investigation, everyone passes!"

"If you don't find out the inner ghost for a day, I won't be able to sleep and eat!"

"Senior Brother Hicks, don't get excited, speak slowly if you have something to say."

Marven fiddled with a quill pen and flipped through the roster.

The Warlocks of the Austrandus Federation stationed in the mushroom garden are all on the books.

"Before the matter is clarified, even me, everyone here is suspicious."

"In order to improve the efficiency of the investigation, I suggest that the investigation should start with the more suspicious personnel, what do you think?"

Marven looked up and looked around at the crowd in the room.

"I'm not against that." Pamela crossed her arms over her chest with a languid expression, "But the question is, how do you know who's the most suspicious?" ”

"Miss! Speaking of which, I would like to report one thing to you! ”

"This matter is related to the inner ghost we are tracking!"

Hicks, once again, jumped out impatiently.

"Huh? Then why didn't you say it earlier! Pamela asked angrily.

"Miss, the status of the person involved is extraordinary!"

"I reported and exposed it in public, for fear that he would retaliate!"

Hicks looked aggrieved.

"If you say it directly, I promise, no one will dare to retaliate against you." Pamela said coldly.

"Brother Hicks, just speak up." Marven smiled and took over the conversation, "Even if the person you report is me, I don't dare to retaliate, otherwise Pamela won't be able to spare me." ”

With Pamela and Marven backing, Hicks no longer has any scruples.

The spearhead of anger is directed at Allen!

"Senior Brother Allen! I have two questions, please answer them truthfully! ”

Alan had already used "his heart" to see through the little abacus in Hicks' stomach.

"Brother Hicks wants to know something, just ask, I know everything, I have a clear conscience."

"Huh! If you say it nicely, it will make you appear in your original form in no time! ”

Hicks sneered and aggressively.

"First question!"

"Your senior brother Tafman, who took refuge in the Beast Worship Sect, was deeply used by the wolf girl Betting, and participated in the attack on the mushroom garden last night, is this a fact?"

"It's a fact." Alan admitted, then added, "But, I didn't report to Brother Tafmanβ€”"

"Shut up!"

Hicks slapped the table, interrupting him sharply.

"A mouthful of a senior brother, it's really affectionate! You must have a good relationship with that traitor, right? ”

"Excuse me, is this the second question?"

Alan asked calmly.

Hicks's arrogance, suppressed.

snorted coldly, ignored his rhetorical question, and pulled the tiger skin to make a banner.

"Are you and Tafman still in private contact today?"

"Did you give him a message and betray our information?"

"These problems need to be investigated in depth, and you can't easily clear them by justifying them yourself!"

"Eldest Miss and Senior Brother Marven, your eyes are like torches!"

"If you are really innocent, they will never wronged you."

"If you can't explain clearly, don't try to fool around!"

Alan smiled helplessly, not making an excuse.

Julie and Felin, who were sitting beside him, couldn't help frowning.

Very dissatisfied with Hicks's aggressiveness.

Tao Na's face was a little delicate.

Alan is accused by Hicks and suspected of being a spy.

In terms of personal vendettas, she should gloat.

even took the initiative to provide clues to prove that Alan not only has a senior brother who has taken refuge in the Beast Cult, but also has a mistress who is in a high position in the Human Demon Sect.

However, she didn't want to fall into the trap.

She genuinely thinks Alan is innocent.

This kid is full of flowers, and he has one thing to say to his friends and classmates, and he is still very righteous!

As for his affair with Sonia, it doesn't prove anything.

Otherwise, Tao Na herself would not be able to escape the suspicion.

After all, her relationship with Sonia is not ordinary.

She's simple, but she's not an idiot.

Don't throw dirty water on yourself.

For the sake of Sonia and the Griffin siblings, Tao Na still has some sympathy for Allen's classmates who were criticized by Hicks.

If she had the chance, she wouldn't mind pulling a man to help him get rid of the suspicion of being a spy.

In the conference room, there was a whisper.

Hicks' accusation against Allen provoked a reaction from everyone.

There are skeptics.

However, most people disagree.

The war between the North and the South has been going on for more than two years.

During this period, there were too many southern warlocks who were captured and mutinied!

Among you here, there are also relatives and friends who defected to the enemy.

Hicks suspects Allen's brother of being a spy just because he is a traitor, and there are too many suspects!

Hicks actually knew that it was too far-fetched to want to pull Alan into the water with just one Tafman.

But he didn't panic.

Because he still has harder evidence in his hands!

"Senior Brother Allen! My second question, why did you miss out for no reason when you were supposed to be on patrol with me last night? ”

"Do you dare to confess in front of everyone that when the mushroom circle was attacked last night, where were you and what were you doing?!"

In the conference room, the chatter suddenly disappeared.

Only Hicks' sonorous accusations are still echoing.

On the day of the attack, Alan was not on patrol?!

This problem is serious!

Everyone's eyes were instantly focused on him.

The meaning of questioning gradually becomes stronger.

Could it be that this kid Allen...... Is it a spy?

Seeing that his knowledge was not good, Fei Lin coughed dryly twice and stood up to defend Alan.

"Brother Hicks! Eren can't be a spy! ”

"You might as well think about it, the personal disciples of the Silver Moon Monastery, working hard for the Beast Worship Sect and being an internal ghost, isn't this nonsense?!"

When everyone heard this, they nodded their heads one after another, thinking deeply.

As we all know, the Beast Worship Sect is in a-for-tat confrontation with the Silver Moon Monastery.

Anyone can collude with the Beast Cult, but Alan cannot.

"You can't say that." Marven took over the conversation unhurriedly, "Our enemy is not just worshipping the Beast Sect. ”

"And the Human Demon Order and the North Island Federation."

"There is no direct contradiction between the Silver Moon Monastery and these two forces."

"Indeed, the Silvermoon Monastery is negotiating cooperation with us."

"However, when it comes to talking, it is not certain whether it can be negotiated."

"Moreover, at the negotiation table, it is not uncommon to ride a donkey to find a horse."

"Huh...... If the north side has better conditions, the Silver Moon Monastery really won't necessarily stand on which side. ”

"Of course, I didn't blame the Silvermoon Monastery or question the meaning of Senior Brother Allen, I just talked about the matter."

Just the facts?

Alan looked at Marven and frowned secretly.

The more I listened, the more I felt that there was something in his words, yin and yang.

Actually, Allen has always had a good impression of Marven.

It's just that there is a Tanya in the middle, and it's inconvenient to have a deep friendship with him.

Until this moment, Senior Brother Marven, who suddenly felt bold and open-minded on the surface, didn't seem to be so consistent.

Alan remained silent.

Secretly locked the detection target of "his heart" on Marven.

I want to find out, what does he mean by squeezing himself with words intentionally or unintentionally?

However, to his disappointment.

Marven seems to have some kind of enchantment that shields the detection of thoughts.

He has a clear heart, and he can't see his thoughts.

"Senior Brother Allen! How long are you going to play stupid?! ”

Hicks has Marven's support and is bold!

Slapped the table and asked Alan in a fierce voice.

"Tell me honestly! Why was you absent from the patrol last night?! ”

Alan frowned, his face expressionless: "I'm sorry, it's a matter of privacy, and it's inconvenient to answer publicly." ”

"What bullshit privacy? I think you have a ghost in your heart! ”

Hicks sneered.

Marven sighed and put down the quill pen.

Looking at Allen's gaze, there was implicit coercion.

"Senior Brother Allen, if you don't explain this question clearly, I'm afraid it will be very difficult to pass today."

Alan smiled and didn't say anything.

"What kind of attitude do you have! In front of Senior Brother Marven and Miss Pamela, he dared to be so presumptuous! ”

Hicks took the gun and the stick and pursued the victory.

"Miss! I suggest that Alan be arrested immediately and torturedβ€”"

Syllable!

Pamela suddenly threw out of her teacup.

"You suggest a fart!!"

β€”β€”

Ask for a commuter pass recommendation ticket!
