The injured Centipede Bear screamed and struggled to get up from the ground. Just as he was about to escape deeper into the forest, a shadow suddenly appeared around him.
"Shadow Cage!"
Enzo waved his hand, and the shadow turned into a cage, trapping the hundred-eyed bug bear in place. No matter how hard it struggled, it could not escape.
The three of them walked forward slowly.
The insect bear hissed sharply, opened its insect-like mouthparts, and sprayed out a stream of acid, hitting the shadow cage and making a squeaking sound.
"What a cute little guy!"
The evil insect licked his lips, and the luster in his eyes shone slightly. As a wizard who manipulated insects, he was very interested in the hundred-eyed insect bear, a creature between beasts and insects.
On the same spot, Enzo looked ahead.
He took a deep breath, his eyes were calm, he raised an arm, a black light bloomed in his palm, and then twisted into an illusory crow.
"Go for it!"
Enzo murmured to himself, and the illusory crow in his palm flapped its wings and flew towards the hundred-eyed insect bear in the shadow cage.
As if feeling threatened, the hundred-eyed insect bear struggled and screamed.
But the next moment, the illusory crow penetrated into the body of the Hundred-eyed Bug Bear and merged like smoke. The Hundred-eyed Bug Bear itself did not feel any abnormality, but Enzo knew that the curse had been left behind.
Then, the shadow cage turned into shadow and disappeared.
After the hundred-eyed insect bear escaped from the trap, it immediately struggled and ran deep into the forest, and soon disappeared from the sight of the three people.
"How was it? Was it successful?" Column asked.
Enzo nodded slightly and remained silent.
The curse has been left in the body of the Hundred-Eyed Bug Bear. As long as it is eaten by the giant tree mother body, the power of the curse will be transferred accordingly.
"Keep looking for prey." Enzo said.
At this time, several more beetles flew back from the distance, and the three of them continued to search for targets in the forest, constantly planting the Phantom Crow Curse.
…
At the same time, inside the sixth tallest tower.
The internal facilities of the dilapidated tower have been extensively damaged, but traces of wizard civilization can be vaguely seen. On the fifteenth floor of the tower, two small red beasts are quietly lurking in a damp and dark corner.
The bat hangs upside down, and the blood snake curls up in the corner.
Ahead is a hall.
Following the sound of footsteps, three children of the forest, who looked like human girls, appeared in the corridor and came outside the hall.
The metal door was pushed open and the three of them walked in.
The bats and blood snakes lurking in the dark corners followed silently and blended into the hall a second before the metal door closed.
In the cold hall, there is a stone table.
Seven children of the forest were surrounding them. They all had the beauty of human girls, and their skin was more delicate, but their faces were a little serious.
"Everyone is here, we can start."
Among the seven Sons of the Forest, the oldest-looking Son of the Forest, Sai, had a solemn expression and spoke slowly.
The other children of the forest nodded one after another, and then the expressions on their faces became solemn and serious. They raised their soft left arms, and then scratched the skin with the nails of their right hands.
"What are they doing?"
In the corner, Yamos, who turned into a blood snake and lurked, his eyes flickering and muttering to himself.
On the side, Lakasha said nothing.
Green blood flowed out of the body of the child of the forest, falling drop by drop on the stone table, slowly gathering like a stream, and finally blending into one.
The lips of the seven children of the forest trembled and they chanted obscure spells.
Buzz!
In the center of the stone table, green blood gathered into a strange pattern, emerald green light flashed, and a palm-sized tree grew and took shape in the blood.
"Mother!"
The seven sons of the forest stood up at the same time and respectfully addressed the small tree growing from the blood on the stone table.
"Who is calling me?"
On the main trunk of the green tree, there is a human face, and she makes a hoarse voice, like an old man.
In the corner of the hall, lurking bats and blood snakes trembled!
Although the small green tree is only the size of a palm, the aura it emits is extremely terrifying, like a god.
The ruler of the world of Elkira, the Tree of Elkira!
"Fourth-level life form! Definitely a fourth-level life form!" Lakasha roared in her heart, hiding in the shadows and not daring to move.
The ancient tree that existed at the birthplace of the world, the source of all things, the Tree of Akiela is also the mother of all children of the forest.
Naturally, the body of such a terrifying existence cannot be the size of a palm. What Sai and others summoned was just a ray of thought from the Tree of Aira.
But even so, the power it exudes is enough to shock people's hearts!
"The plan to expel outsiders from the Lital area has failed. Please give us guidance, mother!" Sai said with a lonely face and lowered his head.
"It turns out to be Sai..."
The green tree slowly opened its mouth and said softly, "Failure is not your responsibility, so there is no need to be sad. Outsiders who invade our world will naturally be punished by the rules of the world!"
"But... what should we do next?" Sai asked hesitantly.
"Just wait quietly, there will be a chance..." The green tree's voice was hoarse and ethereal, and said, "The coordinates of the world of Aiqila have been exposed. No matter how many towers we destroy, outsiders will still appear continuously...
…”
"If you want to completely drive them away, you must cut off the space channels created by outsiders using coordinates!"
"What should we do?" Sai's eyes lit up and he asked impatiently.
"Guard our homeland well. There is no point in doing anything until the right time..."
The green tree's voice was neither urgent nor slow, and said softly, "But before all this, maybe you should catch those two little bugs first."
As soon as the calm voice fell, the hall fell silent.
In the dark corner, the two disguised wizards suddenly froze.
Around the stone table, the children of the forest cast their eyes one after another.
"Run!!" Lakasha screamed, and the bat wings vibrated desperately.
"Catch the outsider!"
Sai stood up suddenly, his eyes focused, green light flashed around his body, and his body began to extend in all directions as if it had turned into a plant.
In a moment, the hall turned into a sea of green.
The vines and branches extending from the body of Sai, the Son of the Forest, spread to almost every corner of the surrounding area, even completely sealing the entrance to the hall.
"Damn it!!" Lakasha rushed towards the metal door, but was stopped by vines.
"Well, my children."
On the stone table, the small green tree began to become illusory, and the ethereal voice said: "I leave these two outsiders to you. You must protect this area and don't let outsiders find opportunities..."
As the voice became softer and softer, the projection of the Tree of Aire also turned into green light and disappeared.
There were only seven children of the forest left in the hall, as well as Lakasha and Yamos.
"Find a way quickly!!" Lakasha growled.
Yamos transformed from the blood snake state into a human form, holding a wand tightly in his hand, his face was as gloomy as water, and there was a trace of fear in his eyes.
Facing the seven children of the forest at the second-order life form level, even Lakasha and Yamos felt a sense of despair.
Although it is normal for accidents to occur during a mission, falling into such a situation during an investigation mission can be regarded as the worst possible situation.
"Give up resistance, outsiders!"
Sai has transformed into the form of a tree demon, with a sharp and hoarse voice, and said slowly: "You have no way to escape, prepare to accept the judgment of the forest!"
…
Knoll Forest, a forest glade.
The sky has fallen into darkness, and the surrounding environment has become even darker. Under the night, a huge monster is lying on a twisted tree.
The monster looks somewhat like a butterfly, with four wide, thin wings, two tentacles extending outward from its head, and a single horn growing in the center of its head.
A native creature in the world of Airkila, the one-horned butterfly!
The unicorn butterfly lying on the twisted tree was using its slender and sharp mouthparts to suck the fruits growing on the twisted branches. The unformed larvae of the bionic crocodile monster were devoured cleanly.
At this time, three figures appeared in the distance.
The one-horned butterfly noticed something, stopped sucking the fruit, flapped its wings and prepared to fly, but was trapped by the cage formed by the surrounding shadows.
"Squeak!" the one-horned butterfly screamed softly.
Enzo stepped forward, gathered a phantom crow without saying a word, drove it into the body of the horned butterfly, and then released the shadow cage.
After the one-horned butterfly escaped from the trap, it immediately flew into the sky.
"How much?" Kelun came over and asked.
"Exactly one hundred," Enzo replied.
His face was a little pale, and his breath seemed quite weak. This was the effect of overdraft of magic power. It took a day, and a hundred monsters in the Noel Forest were cursed by the Phantom Crow.
"How's it going? Do you want to continue?" Colon asked again.
"No, it's already the limit." Enzo shook his head. At this time, his magic power was about to be exhausted. He even drank ten magic potions. He could no longer condense the phantom crows and needed to rest.
"In that case, let's find a place to take a rest." Coronen nodded without forcing it.
Afterwards, the three of them found a hidden corner. The evil insect released some flying insects as guards, and the three of them rested in place.
"How is the situation at Lakasha? Is there any news?" Enzo asked.
"No."
Kelun shook his head and frowned: "According to the previous agreement, we should contact each other every three hours, but now it has been a day, why is there no news at all?"
"Did an accident happen?" Enzo's face darkened.
"Shouldn't."
Colon hesitated, shook his head and said, ": Vampire blood wizards have always been called the kings of darkness and are best at hiding."
"What's more, Lakasha and Yamos are both elites among first-level wizards, so it's not easy for the children of the forest to discover them!"
"Jie Jie Jie! That's not necessarily the case."
On the side, the evil insect suddenly let out a strange laugh and said, "In a different world, the guardian wizard is always suppressed by the rules, not to mention who knows what kind of abilities those children of the forest have?"
Kelun frowned and remained silent.
"What Black said is correct." Enzo spoke slowly and said in a calm voice: "We are in the territory of a foreign race. Nothing should be surprising. We must be prepared for everything."
"I understand what you mean."
Kelun'en's face was cold and he said, "If Yamos and Lakasha are discovered by aliens, our situation will also be in danger!"
"In this case, let's take the next ten hours as the deadline."
"If there is still no news from Lakasha and Yamos within ten hours, then I will disguise myself as the Green Demon and re-enter the Sixth Tower area!"
"As for the curse, I leave it to you two!"
…
Ten days later.
In the Noel Forest, a dark green monster was crawling towards the trees not far ahead with its bloated body.
Squeak!
On the ground, a sawgrass felt that outsiders were invading its territory. It angrily waved its zigzag leaves and slashed at the monster.
Bang!
A ball of slime fell from the slime-like monster, wrapping up the sawgrass and corroding it completely in a matter of seconds.
Then, the monster opened its mouth, stretched out its long tongue, rolled up a ball of mucus on the ground, and swallowed it back into its stomach.
A native creature in the world of Akila, the squirming monster!
Hull! Hull!
The noisy sounds came in vain, and a group of green demons rushed out with wooden spears, throwing them at the creeping monster.
Poof!
The wooden spears pierced the body of the creeping monster one after another, but they seemed to cause no harm. The soft flesh swallowed up the wooden spears, as if they were plunged into a swamp.
The bloated body of the creeping monster arched and arched, but the speed was pitifully slow, so it was quickly surrounded by the green demons.
"Hur! Hur!"
The green demons shouted for a while, used wooden spears to overthrow the body of the creeping monster, then aimed at the weak spot in its heart and stabbed it hard.
Thick blood spurted out, and the creeping monster's body twitched and curled up into a ball, and then became motionless.
"Hur! Hur!"
As the hunt ended, the Green Goblins let out a burst of joyful cheers and pierced the creeping monster with wooden spears. The Green Goblins returned home with a full load.
Not far away, under a tree.
Evil Bug and Enzo hid in the shadows, silently watching the scene ahead. As the creeping monster cursed by the Phantom Crow was hunted by the Green Demons, a sneer appeared on their faces.
"How much?" Xie Chong said hoarsely.
"At least 800 cursed monsters were brought back to the sixth tower by the Green Demons. They should all have been swallowed by the giant tree mother body by now!" Enzo said solemnly.
After the curse plan on the giant tree's mother body began, Enzo and the evil insects have been looking for prey in the Noel Forest and left a curse on them.
The Phantom Crow Curse will not have any impact when it enters the monster's body, and after those monsters are hunted by the Green Demons and sacrificed to the Giant Tree's mother body, the power of the curse will also be transferred to the Giant Tree's mother body.
Now, eight hundred phantom crow curses have been silently lurking on the mother body of the giant tree.
"The time has come, it's time to launch the curse..." Enzo murmured to himself where he was.
There are extremely strict conditions for any curse to be successful. If the giant tree is in its heyday, no matter how Enzo plans, there will be no possibility of success.
But now, the giant tree mother body that was originally a third-level life form is in a state of deep sleep due to serious injuries1
