After more than half an hour, Pei Ze successfully arranged the plane teleportation array, and then took out Ti Ning's breath imprint, and contacted the other party to prepare to locate the teleportation anchor point.

But I waited for a long time, but I never got a response from the half-deer girl.

Pei Ze frowned slightly, guessing that something was likely to happen to Ti Ning, so he couldn't respond to him.

"We can't put it off any longer."

Pei Ze thought about it, so he had to locate the teleportation location where the two sides met last time, and then started teleporting.

With a flash of light, Pei Ze's figure disappeared into the underground hall in an instant.

On the endless plains, the grass grows and the warbler flies.

A lemming was gnawing on the grass roots with relish, and suddenly seemed to sense something, and looked up vigilantly.

The next moment, a dazzling silver light suddenly lit up more than ten meters away, and countless silk-like lights appeared out of thin air, quickly intertwining and outlining into a two-meter-high light door.

The poor lemming was startled, and with a squeak, he fled into the distance.

Behind it, a figure slowly walked out of the light door.

"This is the Gully Plane?"

Pei Ze looked around, and the scenery he saw was very ordinary, but the free energy particles in the air were more active and rich.

Perhaps that's why there are so many magical creatures living in the Gullin.

Pei Ze's whole person levitated out of thin air and flew high into the air.

The Elemental Wizard's ability to manipulate elemental energy is far better than that of the Crystallized Wizard, not only the corresponding elementalized element, but also the ability to manipulate other elemental energy will be greatly improved.

Today's Pei Ze no longer needs to rely on levitation or flying skills to suspend in the air, and can directly control elemental energy.

After flying straight to a height of 1,000 meters, Pei Ze stopped and looked around.

The accuracy of the teleportation positioning with the help of the breath mark can only be said to be very impressive, and if you are unlucky, there may even be an error of more than ten kilometers.

Therefore, it is imperative to determine the location of the last time Tinin contacted him, and then to further judge the movements of the Ancient Tree Deer Spirit Clan.

In the previous meetings, Tinin used the surface of the water as a 'window'.

In other words, there should be a lake or stream near where she is.

As Pei Ze had expected, he soon discovered a lake, about five or six kilometers from where he was now.

"It's okay, it's not too far off."

Pei Ze turned around and flew towards the lake at great speed.

The lake is extremely vast, the blue water is clear and gloomy, calm and unwavering, and when viewed from above, it looks like a magnificent sapphire placed on a turquoise screen.

Pei Ze didn't care about enjoying the beautiful scenery, and searched carefully along the lake.

Disappointingly, there are many and messy footprints on the shore of the lake, and there are some suspected artiodactyl footprints, but it is not certain whether they belong to the ancient tree deer spirit.

Come to think of it, the last time he saw Tinin was three months ago, and even if he left traces at that time, it would have disappeared long ago.

"Looks like we'll have to ask a native."

Pei Ze flew in the direction of the footprints of the suspected artiodactyls.

The lake is bordered by grasslands on three sides, except for a vast forest to the north, with a dense canopy that stretches to the sky, with no end in sight.

There is also a short stretch at the end of the lake, forming a stream that flows into the forest.

Flying over the lake and approaching the forest, Pei Ze suddenly heard a buzzing sound coming from the forest below, as if some kind of insect was rapidly flapping its wings.

In the next moment, forty or fifty blood-red wings on their backs, the size of a carriage, broke through the crown of the tree and rushed out, and slaughtered Pei Ze with a fierce momentum.

The humming sound suddenly intensified, making the chest tight.

The sharp fangs and claws of the insect beast shone in the cold light of the sun, making the heart palpitate.

"Bloodthorn bug!"

The knowledge that had been made up in the library quickly came in handy, and Pei Ze recognized the origin of the insect beast for the first time.

The Bloodthorn Worm is the basic flying class of the Alien Worm, and the combat ability of the adult body is roughly equivalent to that of the Rank 1 Legendary Knight, but the Bloodthorn Worm has the ability to devour the flesh of creatures to recover injuries, which is much more tricky than the latter.

Of course, it is not worth mentioning for Pei Ze.

He stretched out his hand, and a dazzling lightning shot out in an instant, hitting the first bloodstinging insect and then exploding violently, turning into a dense power grid that swept the bloodthorn worms behind.

Immediately, I heard a crackling sound and a dense explosion, and dozens of bloodthorn worms turned into charcoal in an instant and fell to the ground in unison.

"Has the Worm army invaded here?"

Pei Ze frowned slightly, thought about it, and landed towards the forest below.

After entering the forest, Pei Ze found that the vegetation in it was even denser than he expected.

And there are all kinds of strange creatures frequently appearing among the trees, which seem to be energetic and vibrant.

Pei Ze was a little surprised, not because of the vigorous vitality of the trees and creatures here, but because the army of alien insects had invaded here, why were there still so many non-alien creatures?

According to the ferocious and ruthless habits of the insects, it is good to be able to leave the forest, and it is impossible to let go of even one living creature that can still run and jump.

The only explanation is that there are other creatures in this forest that are fighting off alien insects.

Pei Ze was not surprised, and he could just ask the other party about the whereabouts of the Ancient Tree Deer Spirit Clan.

Thinking of this, Pei Ze didn't delay any longer and walked forward.

The trees along the way are all verdant, generally more than 100 meters high, and the slender and beautiful trees seem to have just been washed by a waterfall, exuding a fresh feeling throughout the body.

Countless birds with colorful feathers roost and fly on those trees.

The ethereal, dreamy brilliance of the trees and birds reflects the beautiful scene that far exceeds the imagination of ordinary people.

The more Pei Ze looked at it, the more surprised he became.

At this moment, there was a sudden burst of singing in the distance.

The sound is beautiful and moving, and it makes you feel like you can't help but want to be immersed in it.

Pei Ze raised his eyebrows and walked in the direction where the song came from.

After walking for five or six hundred meters, the eyes suddenly opened up, and the gurgling stream jumped into view, and the stream water was clear and clear.

However, what attracts the eye more is the graceful figure in the center of the stream.

It was a girl in a delicate long dress, with long snow-white hair and eyes of the same color that shone like water, and the lower half of her body was hidden under the water, revealing only her bumpy upper body.

She danced in the water, and her whole person exuded amazing charm.

"Lake spirits? It's really funny. ”

A smile flashed in Pei Ze's eyes.

The Lake Spirit is an elven creature that looks like a stunningly charismatic human or half-elf female, and is adept at unwittingly causing her target to fall into a trance with her singing voice and allowing her to be slaughtered.

Its singing has a hallucinogenic effect, and even a second-level wizard will be hit by it if he is not careful.

Pei Ze didn't expect to encounter a lake spirit here, this is a very rare spirit creature, not as numerous as flower fairies and water fairies and other spirit creatures.

Pei Ze's contemplation fell in the eyes of the lake spirit girl, but she mistakenly thought that the other party had been tricked, and a flash of joy flashed on her delicate face.

But when she turned her head to look, she was stunned.

"Humans? It's not a worm! ”

At this moment, a large figure had approached the man and lunged at him.

Seeing this, the pretty face of the lake spirit girl suddenly changed, and she hurriedly shouted loudly: "Stop, Vikan, that's not a worm!" ”

Unfortunately, it was too late, the figure had already pounced less than a meter behind the man, and the sharp claws fell on the man's back.

The lake spirit girl exclaimed, but to her surprise, the expected scene of blood splashing did not appear, but the thunder on the man's body flashed, and then Vikan howled in pain, and the whole fell upside down, smashing on the trees not far away, and the leaves suddenly fell.

“！！！”

The lake spirit girl looked at the situation in front of her in a daze, and her small mouth opened slightly.

Pei Ze calmly turned around and looked at the sneak attacker with a calm face.

But it was a beast that resembled a tiger.

It's just that unlike ordinary tigers, it's three or four times larger, and it's all verdant green, made entirely of tiny branches and leaves, and looks like a bush shaped into an animal.

"Plantation Guard!"

Pei Ze let out a low sigh.

The Plantation Guardian is a botanical construct that resembles a Golem and is said to have been the alchemy of wizards of the Dark Ages.

They are simple to manufacture and inexpensive, requiring only a few common plants and a soul crystal, and are very common cannon fodder in the Dark Ages, and many wizards like to use them as guards.

It was only with the invention of the more cost-effective Golem that the Plantation Guards were gradually abandoned, and such constructs are rarely seen today.

"I'm afraid this thing has survived for thousands of years?"

Pei Ze looked at the plantation guard in front of him with interest.

The soul in the body of the Plantation Guard is connected to the elemental plane, which can continuously absorb energy, and as long as it is not completely destroyed, it can continue to move.

Rustling!

The sound of the leaves shaking suddenly sounded, and a plantation guard with the appearance of a lion or a tiger rushed out from all around, surrounded Pei Ze, and looked at him with fierce eyes.

Pei Ze didn't care, the combat effectiveness of the plantation guards was not high, at most it was only at the level of a second-order legendary knight, so he was not afraid.

If it hadn't been for the lake spirit's timely voice to stop it, the plantation guard who sneaked up on it would have been wiped out a long time ago.

"Wait a minute!"

The lake spirit girl came to the shore at some point, and spoke out in time to stop the plantation guards.

"This gentleman is not our enemy."

The lake spirit girl is not stupid, and she can naturally see that Pei Ze has shown mercy just now.

She turned her eyes to Pei Ze and said with an apologetic expression: "I'm sorry, sir, I thought it was a strange insect just now, so I apologize to you!" ”

Pei Ze waved his hand and asked, "There are a lot of insects around here?" ”

"Yes." The lake spirit girl had a sad look on her face, "Recently, the number of alien insects has increased, and the frequency of attacks has become higher and higher, and everyone is working hard to defend. ”

Everyone?

Pei Ze was thoughtful, and asked again, "Have you ever seen a group of ancient tree deer spirits?" ”

The lake spirit girl was stunned for a moment, thought about it, and then shook her head apologetically.

"I'm sorry, but there are a lot of magical creatures passing through here recently, and I don't remember if there are any ancient tree deer spirits in it."

Feeling embarrassed, the Lake Spirit Maiden added, "But my companions probably know that they have been patrolling the perimeter of the forest, and they must remember that the hordes of magical creatures passed through here. ”

"Can you take me to meet your companion?"

The lake spirit girl hesitated.

Pei Ze understood and explained: "I am a wizard from the Astral Alliance, and I made an appointment with the Ancient Tree Deer Spirit Clan to take them out of the Ancient Forest Plane, but I don't know where they are migrating now. ”

Wizards of the Astral Alliance!

The lake spirit girl was taken aback, no wonder the person in front of her looked so powerful.

She didn't doubt the reason Pei Ze said.

After all, judging from Pei Ze's appearance when he mentioned the insect just now, the other party obviously knew about the invasion of the insect into the ancient forest plane.

In this case, there is no other reason to come to the Gulf Plane than to help a friend.

It's not like he's here to be a savior.

Thinking of this, the lake spirit girl no longer hesitated and nodded.

"Okay, I'll take you and ask."

"Thank you." Pei Ze smiled, "My name is Pei Ze." ”

"My name is Pasha."

The lake spirit girl slowly walked to the shore, and subconsciously arranged her skirt when she was out of the water, and the long skirt extended to the ground to cover her feet.

But Pei Ze still caught a glimpse of it, and Pasha's feet were the same hoofed feet as goats.

He quickly looked away, pretending to be nothing.

The lake spirits are so beautiful that they are not satisfied with a pair of goats, so they hate showing their legs to anyone, usually covering them with their clothes, and only use them to attack when they are angry.

They also hate being ridiculed by their goats, and those who dare to do so are attacked mercilessly.

"This way."

Pasha led the way in front.

Most of the surrounding plantation guards were scattered, except for the plantation guard named Vikan, who followed Pasha's side.

The two men and the beast gradually moved away from the stream and walked towards the depths of the forest.

Halfway through, a group of petite humanoids with petal-like wings and dressed in leaf garments suddenly appeared in front of them, singing cheerful and relaxed songs.

Flower fairy!

Pei Ze immediately recognized it, after all, there was a group of flower fairies in the mansion.

These ultra-small spirits often act as servants or messengers of larger or more authoritative spirits, such as treants or leprechauns, in order to seek refuge.

Seeing Pasha, the group of flower fairies immediately flew over and greeted the lake spirit girl happily.

Some flower fairies were still flying up and down around Pei Ze, looking at him curiously, not afraid of life at all.

"Did you see Cameroon them?"

"Yikes!" A flower fairy pointed to the front left.

Pasha smiled goodbye to the flower elves and walked in that direction.

After walking four or five hundred meters, Pei Ze saw another group of spirit creatures.

It was a little-goblin-like creature that shimmered with light, only twelve or thirteen centimeters tall, with dragonfly-like wings, and stood lightly on the leaves.

As Pasha and Pei Ze approached, one of them suddenly let out a loud shout, followed by hundreds of such glowing goblins flying out from behind the surrounding blades, cheering and laughing around the two of them, with a low buzz like a swarm of bees.

"Spirit."

Pei Ze was amazed.

The Spirits are small, unintelligent spirits that feed on pollen.

They habitually gather together to form tribes, either because of a shortage of food or to cooperate against their enemies, so that they appear in large groups of hundreds or thousands at a time.

But these little guys aren't too threatening.

Their only ability is to hypnotize their enemies with flashes and dancing.

It's just that the hypnotic ability of thousands of light spirits working together is not as effective as the hypnotism of the previous ring.

If it weren't for clinging to more powerful beings, these little creatures wouldn't have survived in the wilderness at all.

In a short period of time, he met three kinds of spirit creatures one after another, and Pei Ze could now see that this forest was probably an essence country, with a large number of spirit creatures living there.

"Are there a lot of your kindred in this forest?" Pei Ze asked casually.

"yes." Pasha said calmly, "It was Elder Leot who brought everyone together to help each other and resist the invasion of other surrounding tribes. ”

"When the insects invaded, it was Elder Leot who led everyone to resist together, so we were able to hold on to this day."

Really.

Pei Ze bowed slightly, these elite creatures had already formed the rudimentary form of the kingdom under the coordination of the elder named Leot.

If there are no insects, in time, there may be a country of spirits here.

Even in the multiverse, the Elite Realm is very rare.

After all, the vast majority of elite creatures have little combat power, and if you want to form a kingdom, you must have a few powerful elite races as the core.

Perhaps it is because of these elite races that this forest has survived the attack of alien insects to this day.

Pei Ze was about to knock on the side to knock on the side of the forest which spirit creatures with strong combat power, his expression suddenly moved, and he squinted into the distance.

Pasha noticed the change in Pei Ze's expression and wondered, "What's wrong?" ”

"There's a battle ahead."

Pasha was stunned, and then as if he had thought of something, his face changed slightly.

"Oh no, it's an alien!"

She immediately pulled out her legs and ran forward.

The plantation guards hurriedly followed.

Pei Ze's eyes flashed slightly, and he quickly chased after him.

As the distance closes, the dynamics of the battle become more and more apparent.

The high-pitched shouts of killing were mixed with the piercing and high-pitched sound of insects.

Speeding through tall trees, the two men and the beast soon arrived at the place where the battle had taken place.

Not surprisingly, the fighting side was indeed a hideous insect beast.

Insects and beasts of different appearances, but without exception, all of them were hideous and ugly, shuttling between the trees, fearless to launch waves of attacks towards the target, the number of which was no less than two hundred.

On the other hand, surrounded by insects and beasts, there are thin humanoids that are less than a meter tall, with dark green skin and brown hair like tree bark.

Wrapped in elastic green leaves, holding a small round shield and a thorn-like sword, they were more than thirty people in total, and they struggled to resist the fierce onslaught of insects and beasts.

"Thorn Spirit!"

Pei Ze raised his eyebrows, and finally knew who the battle race was guarding this forest.

The Thorn Spirit is known as the warrior of the spirit and is the land defender of many spirit kingdoms.

Adult trained Thorn Spirit Warriors generally possess elite sword and shield combat skills, and master a variety of spell-like abilities to manipulate plants, and their combat ability is not weaker than that of third- and fourth-order legendary knights.

If it is in a forest environment, it can exert a powerful combat power that exceeds its own level by one level.

Therefore, although there are not many thorn spirits, they are all elites.

"Why are there so many alien insects such as spinopods, polysomatic insects, and thick rock insects, and why haven't the guards patrolling the perimeter issued warnings?" Pasha muttered to himself with a frightened expression.

Pei Ze said calmly: "Because they came in from the ground. ”

"Underground?" Pasha froze.

Pei Ze didn't answer, and a blazing thunder suddenly lit up on his fingertips, and he sank into the ground like a sharp arrow.

After a few seconds, Pasha suddenly felt the ground tremble slightly, as if countless monsters were rolling and writhing underground, and there was a faint howl of pain.

Rumble!

The ground exploded suddenly, countless rubble splashed like bullets, and an earthworm monster that seemed to be magnified countless times jumped out of the ground, wailed and shook a few times, and then fell to the ground with a bang, motionless.

Through the cracked pit, you can vaguely see that there are many similar insect corpses underground.

"Digging Worms!" Pasha exclaimed.

She finally realized that these insects were all transported by the digging insects, so it was no wonder that the guards patrolling the perimeter were unaware.

After killing the digging insects with his hands, a dazzling thunder light appeared on Pei Ze's body again, like a golden snake dancing wildly.

With a casual finger in his hand, one after another thunderbolts shot out, splashing like endless clouds of flowing water and swarming insects not far away.

The wild dancing electric snakes swam around, and then connected in chains, bundles, and nets, accurately avoiding the thorn essence and hitting one insect beast after another, turning into a continuous bright light and explosion, simple and monotonous, but powerful.

Almost in the blink of an eye, more than 200 insects and beasts were all turned into charcoal, and the whole army was wiped out.

The originally fierce battlefield fell silent in an instant.

The thorns looked at the scene in front of them with dull eyes, their expressions were in a trance, and they couldn't come back to their senses for a long time with their mouths open.

Pasha was also stunned, his beautiful eyes wide, his eyes full of shock.

Although she had long guessed that Pei Ze must be very powerful, she never expected Pei Ze to be so powerful.

There were more than two hundred alien insects, including several second-level powerful alien insects, but they were all killed by Pei Ze in just one face, this scene was really beyond her imagination.

After a long time, one of the thorn spirits, a male thorn who seemed to be the leader, came back to his senses first and asked Pasha, "Pasha, this is."

Pasha reacted and hurriedly said, "This. . Master Pei Ze is a wizard from the Astral Alliance. ”

Sorcerer!

The thorns looked at each other, surprised and stunned.

No wonder it's so powerful, it turns out to be a wizard from the Astral Alliance.

In the multiverse, wizards are almost synonymous with the strong.

Especially for the weak spirit creatures, wizards need a powerful presence that they look up to.

"Thank you, Wizard, for your help!"

The leading thorn spirit stepped forward and thanked Pei Ze with a sincere expression.

Pasha introduced in time: "This is Cameron, the deputy captain of the Forest Guard. ”

Then she said to Cameron, "Pei Ze is now looking for his friend, the whereabouts of the Ancient Tree Deer Spirit Clan, Cameron, have you seen them?" ”

"Ancient Tree Deer Spirit?" Cameron looked reminiscing, and after a while, he slowly bowed his head, "I think I've seen it, just about three months ago, when I was chasing a strange worm, I saw them resting by the lake." ”

Pei Ze looked overjoyed, and hurriedly asked, "Then where did they go later?" ”

Cameron muttered, "At that time, there were several groups of magical creatures nearby, they should have migrated together to avoid the army of insects, and if nothing else, they should have gone to the side of the Red Agate Mountains." ”

Speaking of this, he sighed, "Now the entire plane, only the Red Agate Mountain Range, has not been poisoned by insects. ”
