After three days of rest in the tree-worshippers' hut, Lance was fully refreshed. Ready to travel to Ferendor.

Hicks also returned from the north, as Eakins said.

"In Ferendor, you have to be careful. There are quite a few real masters in the Inner Realm, and they are not something that a beginner apprentice like you can fight against. Hicks said solemnly, "Also, I need you to bring a letter to the Tree Worshippers Lodge headquarters." After you join Rainbow Island, you can go to the Wizard's Emporium and find a tree worshipper named Akton, and give him this letter. ”

"This is my reward for you. I hope you can get the letter to Akdon as soon as possible. ”

Hicks took out a letter and handed it to Lance, and at the same time took out a necklace made of unknown plants.

"This is the Star and Moon Pendant, worn on the body, when meditating, it can increase the rotation speed of the spell vortex and improve the effect of meditation. It's not a particularly valuable thing. Hicks explained.

Lance gladly accepted the letter and the payment, and at the same time said with some curiosity, "Isn't there a more convenient way for you wizards to communicate with each other?"

"Absolutely. Hicks smiled bitterly and said, "It's just that my witchcraft wheel was accidentally smashed in the last battle, and it has the spell marks of all the tree worshippers I know." So I couldn't contact them until I bought the new Witchcraft Roulette. As a gatekeeper, I can't leave my post without permission. So I can only ask you. ”

Lance nodded: "I will find Akton as soon as possible and hand over the letter to him." ”

Hicks gave a grateful look, and quickly, he pulled out a pink potion from the room.

Then he moved one of the seven bonsai that stood next to the door of the tree worshipper's hut and placed it in the middle of the clearing.

Hicks sprinkled the pink potion on the bonsai and muttered words to his lips.

A mysterious aura emanated from him, and Lance watched it all with some curiosity.

Under the dual effect of the Pink Potion and Hicks' spells, Lance could clearly feel that a large number of spell factors were converging here.

After a while, the strange plants on the bonsai suddenly began to grow wildly.

Three-foot, seven-foot, eighteen-foot...... One hundred feet!

The vine-like plant grew faster and faster, and became unusually thick. In the blink of an eye, it was soaring into the sky.

A hint of fanaticism flashed in Lance's eyes, and he had already vaguely guessed that the inner domain of Ferendor was probably in the sky!

"This is the Bridge of Fairies!"

Hicks pointed to the vines and said, his face a little tired: "Stand up, the Fairy Bridge will send you to the Inner Realm, be careful." ”

Lance, under Hicks' guidance, stood at the joints of the vine.

Suddenly, a force came from under his feet, lifting him upward.

At first, it was slow, and Lance could even see the earth and the forest, and see Hicks, the celestial deer, and the woodpecker turn into small black dots under his feet. Soon, he was in the clouds.

The Bridge of Fairies carried Lance faster and faster, the wind whistling in his ears, and in front of him was a white expanse.

He subconsciously looked down, only to see the mist steaming and the clouds stretching under his feet.

The forest and the earth are long gone.

Lance was excited in his heart, and suddenly a chill rose: if you fall from such a high place, you can't fall into meat sauce?

This fear did not last long, for soon, Lance saw something that surprised him even more!

A huge shadow, silently resting there.

"What's that?"

Before Lance could see the details of the shadow, he was taken into a strange space by the Fairy Bridge.

All around him were blue, and he could see the stars moving slowly in the distance.

"Here, it should be the space-time fault layer of the outer and inner regions. ”

Lance noticed that the Fairy Bridge was rising more slowly, and that a pale green barrier had opened around the vines, enveloping him.

Without this pale green barrier, Lance didn't know what kind of danger the road would encounter.

He stayed in the fault layer for about five minutes before rushing to a new world.

The sky is still up and the land is still under your feet.

A lush forest unfolded in front of Lance.

At this moment, the Fairy Bridge also stopped growing, and Lance waited for a while, but found that there was no movement, and walked down.

The Bridge of the Fairies vanished in an instant.

He walked into the forest, and in a short time he saw an ancient stone tablet with one word written on it: "Ferendor" in the ancient Analects, the lingua franca, and the Elfish.

"It's finally here!"

Lance clenched his fists excitedly, the legendary wizard world, he finally set foot on this mysterious land.

He walked along the path through the forest, and could feel the spell factor that was active in the place.

There is no doubt that meditating here will be several times more efficient!

"I don't know where the Rainbow Island is?"

It was at this time that Lance came to a fork in the road. The road ahead is divided into three.

Luckily, there were signs on the side of the road, and Lance walked over and found three roads leading to "Rainbow Island", "Tree Worshippers' Cottage", and "Crimson Castle". According to the signs, the road on the far left leads to Rainbow Island.

"On the left, right?" said Lance, who muttered for a moment, and chose the path briskly.

Lance's figure faded away at the end of the road.

Five minutes later, two eyes popped out of the sign, followed by a funny face.

The face grinned, and said triumphantly to himself, "Today I deceived another road idiot!" I deserve to be the sign that Ferendor is best at playing pranks. ”

Then he said to himself, "Lord Senluo will come over to check in a while, so I'd better change back." ”

With that, the funny smiling face disappeared from the sign. The names of the three wizarding organizations disappeared and reappeared, only in a different direction.

I saw that the sign on the far left was impressively marked: [Crimson Castle]

The two blood-dripping fangs below staggered and shuddered violently.

......

"Why is this road getting colder and colder?" Lance muttered to himself as he walked.

The trees on both sides of the path became scarcer and sparse in their place, and to Lance's surprise, many of them had been dug open.

How did Rainbow Island become a graveyard?

Lance was a little puzzled, could it be that he was wrong?

Thinking of this, he stopped.

"I'd better go back and take another look, the province is on the wrong track. The more Lance thought about it, the more wrong it became, and he was ready to turn back.

Who knew that at this time, a shadow suddenly swept over the sky!

Lance was startled, and he jerked his head, and a huge vulture pounced on it with great ferocity.

He was about to resist when the vulture flapped its wings violently, and a gust of wind swept in, so powerful that Lance couldn't resist it.

He couldn't even use the Bileg Rotation Force Field, and the whole person was grabbed by the vulture, and he flew high off the ground!

"Does he want to throw me to death?" said Lance, horrified.

The vulture flew high with Lance, he flapped his wings, and suddenly spat out: "It's really delicious flesh and blood, are you from Rainbow Island?"

Lance's mind was in a hurry, but he didn't know how to answer for a while.

Suddenly, he saw a small metal nameplate hanging from the vulture's neck, and the nameplate was painted with two staggered fangs, and blood was still dripping from the fangs.

Lance felt bitter in his heart, but he quickly reacted, and he pretended to be justified and shouted:

"I'm a wizard who went to Crimson Castle to study! Who are you? Put me down!"

"Crimson Castle?" the vulture looked suspicious.

Lance stiffened, he was now under the control of others, so he could only continue to talk nonsense: "Yes, I was originally a wild wizard, and I have long heard that the Crimson Castle in Ferendor is the most powerful wizarding organization, if you want to join, you can put me down." ”

At this time, the vulture suddenly showed a smile like a successful trick: "Okay, good, since it's a wizard who wants to join the Crimson Castle, it's your own person!"

"It's still a long way from Scarlet Castle, since it's all my own, I'll give you a ride!"

Before Lance could utter a "no", the vulture flapped its wings and flew off into the distance.

The wind in the sky poured Lance into his mouth, and he almost choked to death.

......

Five minutes later, an eerie castle appeared in front of Lance's eyes.

The vulture landed violently and threw Lance onto the narrow bridge that broke in front of the castle.

An old man like a dwarf sat there, with a table in front of him, and what seemed to be writing in his hand.

"Old fellow, this gentleman has come here to join the wild wizards of our Scarlet Castle. The vulture pointed at Lance and smiled at the old man, "This month's newcomer quota should be passed." ”

The old dwarf glanced at Lance and nodded.

The vulture smirked, spread its wings, and disappeared into the clouds.

Lance and the old dwarf were left looking at each other.

"I ......," Lance had just started to speak, when he was interrupted by the old dwarf:

"I don't need to know who you are, you just need to answer my questions. ”

"First, do you have any tokens or letters of recommendation from Crimson Castle?"

Lance smiled bitterly and shook his head, he just said nonsense just to survive, in fact, he didn't want to join the Crimson Castle, let alone a token or anything like that.

"Good. The old dwarf licked his lips, "Without a letter of introduction, it was born at his own expense." ”

"To join our Crimson Castle and become a self-funded student, you must pay 100 Magic Stones per semester. The old gnome smiled grimly, "If you can't pay the full amount of tuition, then I'm sorry, you will be a servant of our Crimson Castle, and you will work until you can collect the tuition for 100 magic stones." ”

Lance's eyes widened sharply, and he had barely taken a half step back when the old dwarf suddenly stood up.

His eyeballs suddenly began to wriggle, and in the blink of an eye, a poisonous snake bounced out of the old gnome's right eye socket.

The speed of the poisonous snake was very fast, and it bit Lance's arm in one bite, and the sour numbness immediately penetrated from the surface of the skin.

Lance looked at the old dwarf in shock, according to his perception, this old man was at least a second-level wizard, and it was not something he could compete with at all!

"I guess you don't have so many magic stones either. Then from now on, you are a servant of the Crimson Castle. The old dwarf said coldly, "No. 7, take this gentleman to the servant's room." Start work today and don't be lazy. ”

"Young man, don't try to resist or run away, no one can escape the Crimson Castle's grasp. And as soon as you try to escape, the Viper Curse on your arm kicks in – trust me, there's no second way out for you other than to work hard to earn magic stones. As soon as you become a student of Crimson Castle, either at your own expense or at your own expense, this Viper Curse will disappear. ”

"Alright, the 7th is here, get on the boat. ”

A small boat rowed across the castle with a man dressed in black sitting on it.

Listening to the old dwarf's cold command, Lance's whole person seemed to have fallen into an ice cave, and he became extremely cold from beginning to end!
