This is a terrible name filled with many taboos in the Wizarding Continent.
For most ordinary people, this is a name that represents death and chaos. If you look at the development history of the Wizarding Continent, you will find countless tragic and miserable examples.
In the year 13179 of the Wizarding Calendar, in a small human mountain village on the western border of the Sand Tallinn region, more than 120 people in the village disappeared without a trace overnight. According to the wizard's investigation, traces of the activities of the Mind Flayer were found in the village.
…
In the year 17281 of the Wizarding Calendar, a newly formed human settlement in the Nalan area within the territory of the Northland Witch was attacked by a tide of beasts. In three days, more than 20,000 people died, and countless people were injured or missing...
In Wizarding Calendar 22765, the Silver Alliance formed the 17th Constructed Legion and expanded into the depths of the Black Forest. They suffered a terrible counterattack by monsters and suffered heavy casualties...
…
…
Looking through these histories, all human beings will naturally have a natural awe for the black forest.
This place is not only an inexhaustible treasure trove of resources for them, but it is also a source of turmoil where terrifying monsters gather.
This kind of life of living next to monsters, people are on tenterhooks day and night, not only worried about the sudden outbreak of a large-scale monster tide, but also worried about those terrifying monsters escaping from the forest... This kind of life is difficult for people who have not experienced it personally.
It's simply unimaginable.
Therefore, the people of Songta Town are almost trapped here, and they dare not easily step out of the thick village wall. Even if they go to the nearby mountains and forests to pick up some firewood during the day, they still need to work together in groups. And in the small town
Of the residents, the longest time they have lived here is only five years.
As for the old residents who came to Songta Town in the early days, they have been gradually swallowed up by the surrounding forests.
Among the outsiders gathered in Songta Town, the largest number were mercenaries and adventurers who came to make a living, as well as some wizard apprentices who came to look for materials.
They were hired for some gold coins and magic crystals, and frequently appeared in the nearby mountains and forests. Either to find some kind of special magical plant, or to capture some kind of delicious meaty monster, or to explore a certain
area... In short, the trophies they exchanged with their own blood and lives will eventually appear on a certain wizard's experimental bench or dining table.
…………
Early in the morning, the team set off.
After breaking through the pre-dawn mist and passing through the narrow village gate of Songta Town, everyone wrapped themselves in thick cloaks and cloaks and silently slipped into the forest.
When we first entered the forest, it was obviously still a normal forest.
In the midst of a lush and vast sea of trees, a huge yellow-brown cliff stands quietly. Like a proud king inspecting his subjects, the cliff is alone in the depths of the green sea of trees, with wisps of white clouds floating around it.
The top of the cliff is flat and covered with dark brown moss.
The breeze blew, the forest sea was turbulent, and there were bursts of buzzing sounds. A group of blue birds took off from the woods and soared into the distance.
Walking through such a sea of forests, everything you see is emerald green, green flowers, green grass, green vines and gray tree trunks...
Vitality, a thin burst of vitality is refreshing!
The light in the quiet and dark jungle is not bright, and there are branches and vines and shrubs growing randomly everywhere. It is almost impossible to walk through such a jungle without a "guide" who is familiar with the terrain.
Lowe, who was employed as a sword and shield warrior, has now temporarily changed his profession to a scavenger. With the round shield slung behind his back, he wields a sharp hatchet to cut off the obstructing vines and thorns, and barely clears a path in the mountain forest that can be used for food.
The 'passage' where people walk sideways, moving forward step by step with difficulty.
When walking in the primeval forest, the soft and exquisite cloth robes that wizards usually like to wear become inappropriate. The overhanging branches and thorny thorns can easily tear their clothes. Therefore, even wizards and apprentices who do not need to use their hands can only
You can put a thick and dense cloak or cape on the outside of the robe to prevent the legs of the robe from getting hung up and causing a mess on your face.
Moreover, these wizards who usually hide in tall witch towers and tightly protected laboratories no longer have their usual arrogance and mysterious wisdom. Even an ordinary gentle slope may become a huge problem that blocks their progress.
Someone above dropped the cane and pulled it upward, while someone below pushed the waist and butt upward. Only the Gargamel wizard who lacked physical exercise could climb up these rocks or short cliffs less than two or three meters with difficulty.
On the contrary, Greem, who is also a wizard, has shown a strong physique that is not weaker than that of Lovi. Not only can he walk through mountains and rivers like walking on flat ground, but he can even imitate the level 3 thief Rhodes on an ordinary short cliff, dragging a vine for three times.
He jumped up with two kicks.
This made Gargamel stare at his burly and strong figure more than once and drool!
To be honest, any newly promoted wizard has a strong body like a warrior, an agile body like a thief, and quick reactions like an archer. However, years of lack of exercise, coupled with the erosion of a large amount of toxic and harmful witchcraft materials
, there are only a handful of wizards who can maintain this physical advantage.
So when he saw Grimbang's amazing physical fitness, Gargamel not only didn't think anything strange about him, but instead showed a pensive and nostalgic look from time to time.
Once upon a time, he had such an outstanding body!
At that time, he could sing and sing every night, and he could also fight vigorously... Unfortunately, with the passage of time and the erosion of witchcraft energy, all this has become a thing of the past. And he is just a comparison now.
Li Gui is such a bad old man!
However, the powerful power of witchcraft makes him still a terrifying wizard who awes the world. Once he lets his hands and feet show off to his full potential, it is only a snap of his fingers to massacre a small pine cone town.
It's a pity that such power is somewhat unusable in the Black Forest!
Using wizard methods, you can summon some flying servants at will to avoid this annoying and troublesome jungle journey, and then fly over the black forest to your heart's content.
But it’s nice to think about such an idea, but you can’t put it into practice, otherwise you will definitely end up in a miserable death!
The idea of using means to fly over the Black Forest is indeed a good idea, but how to locate it becomes the biggest problem.
Those fools who have never flown in the sky will never know the pain of getting lost.
Soaring in the blue sky, with rolling forests and mountains at your feet, you may be able to identify the direction, but finding your destination has become an impossible task. The black forest stretches for tens of thousands of miles and hundreds of thousands of miles.
Here, it is simply a joke to find landmarks to confirm the location in a forest that rises and falls with the wind.
The unique high-magic environment in the black forest also makes many detection or prophecy-type witchcraft seem specious. The prophecy magic wand is not easy to use here, and many times it will even take you directly to the lair of a terrifying monster.
among.
Moreover, it is so impressive flying in the sky that it can easily become the target of powerful monsters.
The monsters in the black forest all have a strong sense of territory. If you sneak past the edge of their territory quietly, it won't be able to sense it. But if you want to commit suicide, you have to fly over their heads...
Use your bones to decorate their caves, this may be your only end!
The ten miles of mountains and forests ahead are just a small trial for the difficult journey ahead.
As they went deeper and deeper, the green in the forest gradually became darker and darker. When they passed the ten-mile boundary, they looked around and saw another strange world that was different from the previous one.
Looking up, the sky above the Black Forest is filled with dark tree crowns that block out the sky and the sun, just like a night sky full of stars.
The layers of black leaves cover the bright and clear sky outside, forming the deepest and darkest night. What flickers is the light blue fluorescence like fireflies that can be seen everywhere in the forest. It is they that give the night sky here
'It adds a strange and eerie beauty.
In addition to such a beautiful "night sky" scenery, the environment of the Black Forest is also particularly elegant.
The forest is filled with the fragrant fragrance of flowers, and the ground in the entire forest is covered with tender green grass up to your ankles. Stepping on it is like stepping on a fine velvet carpet, so soft that you want to lie down and roll on it.
To be honest, every piece of black forest has a completely unique style and tone.
If the black forest we passed before heading to the Northland was full of gloom, darkness and chaos, then the black forest in front of us was full of magic, strangeness and beauty.
Greem and his party seemed to have suddenly entered a magical forest, where magic aura was everywhere, and everything was filled with beauty and magnificence.
Many of the people present had seen such a magical and beautiful scenery for the first time, and they were stunned for a while. The Luo Wei people who have been here all year round also straightened up and wiped the sweat from their foreheads.
Relax and enjoy the bizarre beauty here.
Greem, on the other hand, silently scanned everything in front of him, and what appeared in his elemental vision was another completely different world.
In the dim jungle, there are traces and wisps of magical energy flowing.
As inexhaustible magical nutrients, they nourish and strengthen the world in front of us little by little.
In Greem's vision, every plant, tree, flower, and bird here is filled with elemental particles representing magical energy.
The red is fire, the cyan is wind, the brown is earth, the green is wood, the blue water is, and the purple is soul...layer by layer, block by block, pile by pile, the rich magical energy fills the entire forest.
They are all immersed in the ocean of magic.
In such an environment, as long as it is not an ignorant stone, it is possible to breed enough intelligence and give birth to an intelligent life that can rival a wizard...
The Black Forest, to be honest, should be called the Magic Forest!
