"The five hundred and thirty-two..." Looking at the fallen sword-toothed leopard, Lily counted feebly. This was the five hundred and thirty-two monsters that Elaine and the others encountered after entering this damn forest.
As early as five days ago, Mira pointed at the map and swore that the fastest way to go to Blaino was to go straight from this forest. If you go around from the outside, it would probably take at least four or five days. Although Elivin
Both Elaine and Soy objected to taking a shortcut through the forest, but Lily seemed eager to take action after hearing Mira's suggestion. In the end, she couldn't defeat the two ladies. Elaine and Soy had to accompany them to break into the area clearly marked with danger on the map.
Forest of words…
"Huh... this damn place!" Eleven thrust the sword into the Sabertooth Leopard's body and said angrily, "Even the day is the same as the night, I can't tell the difference between east, west, north and south!"
"Yes, it's my fault!" Mira put her hands on her hips and didn't look apologetic at all, "But didn't Lily agree?"
"Huh? Huh? Huh?" Lily, who was lying on the gun for no apparent reason, said that her knees hurt, "I really want to go to Bartleya quickly... but it seems that walking through the forest is more troublesome than walking around outside.
.”
"Perhaps we should hire a guide instead of breaking into this place alone." Suoyi sat tiredly on a protruding rock nearby, wiped the sweat from his face, and said feebly, "We are still too reckless.
.”
"No, I have looked for the locals, but none of them are willing to be a guide." Elavan seems to be in much better condition than Soi. At least he still has the strength to remove the two huge canine teeth of the Sabertooth Leopard.
, "The locals say there are some evil spirits here. Almost no one who enters here comes out, and even if they do, most of them don't go too deep into the forest. Some locals actually say that there are evil gods who eat people living in this forest! It's really childish.
...I see that there are indeed many man-eating monsters, evil gods and the like here..."
"Ah... the density of monsters is indeed too much." Lily's mouth twitched. She was wondering if God knew she was complaining about not seeing any monsters before, but now she kept sending monsters in front of her.
, but fortunately, most of the monsters that Elivan and the others encountered were miscellaneous fish below the third level, and even if there were fourth- and fifth-level monsters, Lily would take action to deal with them. By the way, those more than 500 monsters were all Eli's.
Mila seldom took action when Wen and Soy solved it, and Elaine seemed to think that although such a small Lily was very powerful, she did not have much fighting ability, so she was not allowed to take action. Lily was naturally happy to relax, and
Qianyu was munching on fruit and cheering, cheering and so on.
The forest that Lily and the others are in doesn't look like anything special from the outside, and it only shows a small area about the size of your thumb on the map. However, this forest does have some evil spirits. It was fine when you first entered, and the deeper you go, the more evil you get.
It got darker and darker as they walked, and in the end, Elaine and the others couldn't tell whether it was day or night, and the originally small forest seemed to expand infinitely - Soy had marked it to prevent getting lost, but when they arrived
Now they have never seen those marks, which means they have always followed the same path without repeating it...
"Could it be...an illusion?" Lily thought of a possibility, "We didn't find any marks made by Soy on our route, and we just judged the direction through the growth rings of trees. Unless it's on the map,
The labeling is wrong, otherwise we should have left this forest the day before yesterday."
"What about the environment?" Elaine looked up at the sky covered with dark leaves, "Lily, can you let your little bird fly up to see what's going on around you?"
Qianyu, who was chewing the fruit, almost choked. He shook his head repeatedly and seemed unwilling to go up. Lily's eyes lit up and she quickly asked: "Qianyu, have you noticed something? Is there any danger at the top of the forest?"
Qianyu nodded repeatedly and chattered as if she wanted to express something, but she had not grown up to the point where she could speak like the Harpy Queen, so no one knew what Qianyu wanted to say.
Lily turned her head and looked at Mira: "Sister Mira, do you know magic like spiritual linking? I think Qianyu should know something."
Mira tilted her head awkwardly, pretending to be nonchalant: "Huh, I won't learn that kind of magic!"
Elaine chuckled lightly and joked: "That's because the magic our Miss Mira knows are all fire-based and are used for offense, so offense is the best defense?"
"That, of course!" Mira's face turned red again and she said angrily, "If I know the spell, I will definitely be able to use it easily."
"Really?" Lily's eyes lit up again, "I know the spells, but...except for the ice wall spell and some buff magics, I'm not very proficient in other magics, well, not very proficient...
..." It takes a hundred attempts to succeed once!
But Mira was not bragging again this time. After Lily told Mira the syllables of the spell, Mira closed her eyes and slowly chanted the spell word by word. To Lily's surprise, these scales were
After chanting, the magic power flowing out did not form magic, but formed a three-dimensional figure exuding the light of blue magic power. This mysterious figure slowly integrated into Mira's body, and then Mira opened her eyes and pointed her fingers.
With a slight wave, Lily felt something extra in her mind.
"Can you hear me?" Mira's mouth did not move, but Lily heard her voice clearly. Success! Lily looked very excited: "Sister Mira! You are so amazing! How did you do it?
Yes? You can use the method just now to cast those magics instantly?"
"Of course, I am a genius!" Mira put her hands on her hips and said proudly, "I will teach you how to use this method after you leave this hellish place - that big idiot Elaine actually doesn't want to bother with it.
Learn, until you learn how to piss him off to death!"
Lily nodded sharply. It would be great to be able to cast magic instantly! After I learn it, I will show that half-baked mage Fan what the real horse-monkey soju is!
"Um...I said..." Elaine interrupted the conversation between the two with a black line on his head, "So? What does that little bird know?"
"Oh, by the way..." Mira restrained herself and connected Qianyu's spirit with everyone.
"Qianyu Qianyu, can you speak now?"
"Huh?" A childish voice appeared in everyone's mind, it must be Qian Yu, "Can you understand what I say?"
"Yeah, yeah! That's it!" Lily rubbed Qianyu's little head vigorously, looking very happy, "Is there anything wrong in this forest?"
"Here... there is always a pair of eyes watching us here." Qianyu showed a timid look, "It has been since we first entered this forest, and I feel that the top of the forest seems to be very dangerous, more dangerous than corn.
Be dangerous!"
More dangerous than corn? Everyone is at a loss - is corn dangerous?
"Does it seem to be the monster's intuition?" Elaine touched his chin, thinking about something, "Maybe it is really like what the locals said, there are some unknown existences in this forest, that...
Qian...Yu...right? Can you feel where that sight comes from?"
Qianyu shook his little head, seemingly unaware.
"This is going to be troublesome..." Elaine raised his head again and looked up at the sky, "Since there is danger above the forest, can we cut down a tree to see what is there on these leaves?
Something!"
"Chopping down trees..." So he glanced at Elaven's big sword, "My sword is just an ordinary sword. If I use it to cut down trees, I'm afraid it will break soon. Elaven, it's up to you."
"Huh? Do you want me to use the Kingdom of Skell's Sword to chop down trees?" Eleven seemed unwilling to use his own accessories to chop down trees, but Mira volunteered and shouted: "I'll do it! I'll do it.
Come!"
"No!" Eleven and Soy's reactions were surprisingly consistent, "We are cutting down trees! We are not setting fire to the forest!"
"What..." Mira pursed her lips, looking very unhappy, "I just want to help with good intentions..."
While he was talking, there was a crisp sound of wood breaking, and a big tree as thick as three people could hug each other slowly fell down. Lily stood by the tree and looked back at the stunned three people: "It's been solved, you guys... wow
Ah ah ah ah ah!!!!"
Lily was raising her head to look at the sky that had lost the cover of leaves, but she saw a scene that almost drove her to pieces - this... could this be a sinful eye?! Zi Mom! Ah, sister Zi, is that you?
Elaine and the others didn't care how Lily knocked down such a thick tree. They also came to Lily's side and saw what Lily saw - it turned out that there was nothing above the forest at all.
The sky is instead a black screen! And on that black screen, red eyes are blinking open and closed, seemingly observing everything in the forest...
No wonder Qianyu said that he could feel the sight... This feeling of being surrounded by countless people made Lily and the others tremble. The corner of Elaine's mouth twitched, pointed at those eyes with a big sword and said: "Hey... Mira
, please help me get rid of these eyes that look so penetrating..."
Mira hugged her shoulders and shuddered, and she had goosebumps all over her body: "Why, why do you need me to come? What should I do if the thing provokes something that shouldn't be provoked?"
"But if this continues, we're probably going to have to wander around in this forest. Aren't you the only one who can hit those things here... Hey?! Lily! What are you going to do?" Elaine stared at Lily in stunned silence.
The rock that I was sitting on just now was uprooted from the ground, and then it was thrown into the sky like a hollow ball... The rock that gathered blood energy hit the blood-red comet like a red comet.
Eyes on the black canopy.
This cheap sister of mine seems to be much stronger than he imagined? With great difficulty, Elaine closed her chin, and heard a sound like a stone hitting the glass. The scene in front of the group suddenly changed.
After a sudden change, he appeared in a forest that was much brighter than before.
Staring blankly at the tiny bits of sunlight shining through the leaves, Elaine seemed to be mumbling in his sleep and said, "Soy, tell me I was dreaming just now."
Suoyi responded blankly: "Yes, Your Highness, we seemed to have had the same dream just now."
Lily wiped her sweat and said easily: "It seems like it's really an illusion! But luckily it's not Zi [Beep]'s sinful eye, otherwise..."
"Is there...a cabin ahead?" Mira pointed ahead in disbelief. Behind the woods, you could vaguely see a rather delicate wooden cabin. The wall on Lily's side was covered with climbers.
Morning glory.
"I think the owner of that cabin is the culprit behind these illusions." Lily looked around with lingering fear, "Or... this is another illusion."
Although Lily is not majoring in illusions and other abilities, the charm of a vampire can be regarded as a method of mental attack similar to that of illusion. Lily is naturally much stronger than ordinary people in terms of mental attacks. But the opponent obviously has
Only with mental power that far exceeds one's own can everyone step into the illusion without knowing it.
"I, let's continue on our way and don't go over there to look." Mira looked at the cabin in fear, as if there was some kind of savage beast inside.
Elaine shouldered the big sword and grinned: "Why don't you go over? How can we be too stingy when we are treated so 'warmly' by the master, and... hey?! Wait a minute! Lily! Don't act alone!"
"Let's go!" Lily pulled Qianyu and walked at the front. She wanted to see who the person who lived in this forest and created such a powerful illusion was!
The cabin was warmer than Lily imagined. There was a fence surrounding the yard. Various exotic plants were planted in the yard. Although they looked like ornamental flowers, Lily felt that these might be used to make potions.
Herbs, right?
There is a path paved with white gravel in the yard, all the way from the outside of the yard to the door of the house. Through the window outside the house, Lily can see many books and various strange props piled messily in the room.
For a moment, she thought of the residence of a certain black and white robber...but maybe there would be a lot of mushrooms planted outside her house instead of flowers and plants, right?
Just when Lily was thinking wildly, the door of the cabin creaked open, but no one appeared at the door - were you inviting me in? Lily chuckled, pulled the reluctant Qian Yu, and walked towards
