vs 19 Tree worshippers

"Demon King, before I get angry, you better leave. The stag stamped a beautiful and clean hoof, and the sound was so pleasant.

Lance looked at the Demon King with some curiosity, but to his surprise, all the demons had disappeared without a trace before the stag said this.

Even the invincible demon king from before is gone.

"You're always so slow. Dogpecker Eakins flew dissatisfiedly to the back of the stag.

Tiransius said a little shyly, "You know, I'm not very good at dealing with strangers, so I'm a little slower. But our overly curious guest seemed to be badly hurt. ”

"His blood is running dry. The woodpecker flapped his wings and said, "By the way, he is a wizard's apprentice, and he has come to Lord Hicks." ”

The stag gracefully approached Lance's side and asked in surprise, "Wizard apprentice, is there any wizard in Ferendor who can't [Demon Defense Technique]?"

Lance smiled bitterly and endured the pain and said, "I am from the mortal world and want to enter the wizard world. My teacher told me on his deathbed to come to the Whispering Forest to find Hicks. ”

The stag nodded slowly: "It turned out to be a wandering wild wizard." ”

"First of all, allow me to welcome you on behalf of Ferendor, Mr. Wizard. Ferendor may not be the same as you might think, but there are at least a lot of wizarding organizations here, and there are a lot of skilled wizards. It's much better than being on your own. ”

"I'll take you to Master Hicks. ”

"Before I do, though, I'll have to stop the bleeding for you. Tiransius lowered his head and said to Ekins, "My dear old friend, wouldn't you mind helping to heal this wizard?"

The woodpecker shook its head, and suddenly flew high into the air, disappearing into the forest.

After about half a minute, it flew over, holding a handful of fluffy weeds in its mouth.

"Don't worry, although you have bled a lot, you will definitely not die if you have the best doctor in the whole of Ferendor to treat you. Ekins tossed the weeds in his mouth to Tiransius and comforted Lance.

Lance smiled bitterly, his face getting paler and paler, and the pain had turned numb. The main chip kept reminding him that he had lost too much blood, but there was nothing he could do about it right now.

But since Tiransius stood beside him, he could feel something warm on the surface of his skin, and the rate of bleeding had slowed significantly.

The stag took the fluffy weeds in his mouth and chewed on them a few times.

On his head, the furry deer antler velvet suddenly shone with circles of colorful mysterious runes. After a moment, the stag suddenly sneezed and squirted out the contents of his mouth with a pop!

Pale green weed juice, mixed with a strange white liquid, sprinkled on Lance's body.

Lance's face turned green in an instant.

"Hey, boy, don't be disgusted. Tilantius's liquid can be bought on the black market in Ferendor, thirty magic stones and a needle!"

"You seem to remember the price very well. The stag pinned his head to the woodpecker.

The latter suddenly showed a look of regret, obviously accidentally slipped his mouth. Eakins scratched his head and said a little embarrassed, "Hey, I just secretly went to sell once, just once." ”

Hearing the conversation between a bird and a deer, Lance was speechless. However, he also believed that there was no need for the woodpecker to lie to him.

Because ever since the strange scented liquid spilled onto his skin, he could feel a cool touch spread throughout his body. All the skin that had been eaten by the demon insects immediately stopped bleeding, and after a while, a strange itching sensation came from the wound.

He couldn't help but look down, only to find that the wound on his lower abdomen had actually begun to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye!

"What an amazing ability!" Lance couldn't help but exclaim.

The stag shook his head reservedly, but it was Ekins, who waved his wings and said triumphantly: "In the whole of Ferendor, there is only one neon deer in the heavenly realm, Tilantius! ”

Once again, Lance expressed his sincere gratitude to the stag Tilansius. After talking for a while, he realized that the two people who had secretly sent him out of the forest were none other than Ekins and Tiransius. They did it not to expel Lance, but to protect him.

"Every night, the demons in this forbidden forest will come out to move, and ordinary wizards know how to defend against demons, even the king of demons can't help them. But a wizard apprentice like you is really rare. The most common thing in the wild is that there are demons in the wild, but there are also other evil creatures, and it is not easy to survive here, so I suggest you learn the demon defense technique as soon as possible. Ikins said in a wry manner.

Lance nodded slowly.

It didn't take long for the wounds on his body to heal completely, but he was a little exhausted due to excessive blood loss.

"Let's go. The stag hunched Lance on his back, and it took him a long time to muster up the courage to say, "Xie Lu, Xie patronizes a magic stone." ”

"What?" Lance didn't react for a moment.

Or the woodpecker Ekins sneered: "Tilansius is a celestial deer, and he treated you out of kindness before, so it was free." But let him hum you, but you will have to pay. After all, it's not easy to make a living in Ferendor. ”

Lance suddenly realized, and then took out a magic stone from the arcane ring and handed it to Tilansius.

The Celestial Deer happily swallowed the magic stone into its stomach and ran deep into the forest with a puff of smoke.

......

Two hours later, deep in the forest, in the middle of a clearing, a small room stood quietly.

"Master Hicks has gone to capture the petrified jackals, and will probably not return until dawn. Let's go in first. With a big grin, Ekins flew up to the hut, and with a few pecks the door was opened.

As soon as Lance entered, he noticed that the inside of the hut was much larger than it looked from the outside.

"This is the tree worshipper's hut. Every tree worshipper receives a gift from his elders when he is born. According to Master Hicks, it was a seed that could be sown in the ground at any time and grow into a small hut with an incomparably large interior. The woodpecker and the celestial deer both entered the house, and the former said to Lance, "Mr. Wizard, you will sleep in the hall on the first floor until Lord Hicks returns." ”

Lance nodded, he was tired by this time, so he wrapped a blanket and fell asleep on a soft couch.

......

The next morning, he was awakened by a manic howl, like the roar of several ferocious hungry wolves.

He got up in a daze, and walked out of the hut, when suddenly the fox's hurried voice came:

"Strong spell factor fluctuations detected!"

Lance was startled, and in his sight, a man more than two meters tall was holding a leather rope in his hand, and a dozen gray-white jackals were hanging from behind, walking quickly from the forest.

"Hello, you must be Mr. Hicks?" said Lance.

Unfortunately, the man paid no attention to him, and he passed by Lance as if he didn't exist.

Langston was a little embarrassed.

"Good morning, Mr. Hicks. Eakins and Tiransius also came out of the room and greeted the man.

This time, Hicks nodded calmly.

He tied the jackals to a pillar in the hut before turning and looking at Lance with a look of wariness in his eyes: "Tell me where you came, strange wizard. ”

"Hello, I'm Reims. ”

Lance said quickly, "It was my teacher who asked me to come to you." I come from the mortal world, and I learned some basics of witchcraft under the guidance of my teacher, but the teacher unfortunately passed away a few days ago, and I can only come here alone, I hope you can help me. ”

"Who's your teacher?" Hicks finally began to look at Lance squarely.

"Amman. ”

Lance recalled, but was shocked to find that he only remembered the name of the Amman wizard, not his last name.

"Amman, could it be the mad wizard from Rainbow Island who didn't hesitate to burn all his lifespan in order to improve his realm?" Hicks' face changed suddenly.

Lance nodded.

He suddenly noticed that Hicks had a hint of awe in his eyes when he mentioned Amman.

"Could it be that the teacher is famous in Ferendor?" Lance speculated in his heart.

"Did he actually pass away?" Hicks shook his head: "He was originally known as the most promising fourth-level wizard on Rainbow Island, but it's a pity...... Forget it, you don't know what to do with these things. He asked you to come to me so I could take you to Ferendor and join Rainbow Island, right?"

Lance's heart moved, and there seemed to be a lot of old stories about the teacher's deeds. But wisely, he didn't go any further, nodding obediently.

Hicks raised his eyes: "Since it was his request, of course I will help you." ”

Lance felt a burst of ecstasy.

"However, I never do unpaid labor. This is the purpose of our tree worshippers, and everything we do is for the balance of nature. Hicks turned and walked to the tree-worshippers' hut, but the voice came from afar:

"If you want to go to Rainbow Island, you have to do something for me. ”
