A strange rumor suddenly spread among the adventurers of the Kingdom of Yas. Fei
In a wild forest bordering the current Earldom of Ryder, an extremely terrifying monster appeared. It had a thousand pairs of eyes and a thousand tentacles, and its body was like a ball of rotting sludge that was slowly flowing, and seemed to be constantly spewing out.
The huge spherical floating object of black mist has no fixed shape and is changing every minute.
No one knew what it was or where it came from. They only knew that it suddenly began to wander in the dense forest. Wherever it went, twisted shadows loomed, and dull low hums echoed constantly, making people shudder.
Many magicians scoffed at this rumor, thinking that some sensational bard and adventurer had made up the story while drunk.
But soon the movements of the National Knights of the Kingdom of Yas made people who were originally disapproving smell something strange. This group of elites, who were ready to go, rushed non-stop to the area near the incident just after the civil war. Not only that, the most powerful people from the kingdom came to the scene.
Elite magicians were also invited.
At the same time, a piece of heavy news hit the heads of everyone waiting to eat the melon.
Not long ago, Earl Ryder's heirs and a large number of servants went into the dense forest to hunt together. There, they encountered the rumored monster. Except for Earl Ryder's eldest son who managed to escape under the protection of his servants, all the others were missing.
A thousand pairs of eyes and a thousand tentacles came from the mouth of this surviving heir.
It was confirmed that Earl Ryder's eldest son was conscious and able to recount the events of that day completely and clearly. Except for the occasional incoherent description due to excessive fright, there were no errors or omissions.
The sixth-level great magician of Earl Ryder's family disappeared silently in this accident. The eldest son said that the newly promoted old man just looked into the dense eyes of the monster in the dark and lost his resistance.
Ability, muttering, laughing crazily, allowing countless tentacles to lift it high, and suddenly be dragged into the darkness.
The ridiculous description made every listener's scalp numb. They could not believe that a magician who was already at the top of Yas would behave so abnormally when faced with a monster attack and even lose his life.
Not only do they not believe it, but many members of the Knights and Royal Magicians who have come to Earl Ryder's border also don't believe it. In their view, this is a premeditated assassination, and it is the secret mischief of the old aristocratic forces that were defeated in the civil war.
, it must be dug out and punished!
After receiving direct permission, they, led by a sixth-level magician, immediately began searching the area.
Led by Earl Ryder's eldest son, they came to the area where the incident occurred, where they felt the faint residual magic power.
"Two possibilities are that the other party solved all the troubles without relying on too much magic power. The other is that the other party's magic power utilization rate has reached a level that we can't imagine..." Fei
The conclusion reached by the royal magicians caused the surrounding temperature to drop a few points. Amidst the howling cold wind, they only felt that their nasal passages were unbearably cold.
If it was the former, a monster that could kill a sixth-level magician without using magic power, how perfect would his body be?
If it's the latter... his use of magic may completely surpass everyone present.
The search continued, and soon they made new discoveries.
"Teacher, there seems to be someone over there."
After confirming that it was not an active messenger of the Knights, they approached cautiously, and the vague humanoid outline quickly shocked everyone.
The servant with the Ryder family emblem on his clothes was limping around like a stiff puppet. His body was covered in blood holes and he was no longer alive, but he was moving forward aimlessly.
Facing countless arrows aimed at him, the servant stopped. His head suddenly made a "click" sound, and after the sound of bones breaking, it started to spin like a top, and finally the pair of empty and hollow eyes
His eyes were like the pointer of a turntable, facing a fifth-level magician in the team.
"Quick, stop him!"
The moment the command was issued, the already corpse servant's limbs were on the ground, using his hands and feet together, swinging his head like a spider that might fall to the ground at any moment, and headed straight for the fifth-level magician who caught his eye.
Neither magic nor arrows could stop it from biting the magician's throat. The moment blood filled his cheeks, both bodies stopped moving at the same time.
"What the hell, what the hell, what the hell!" A magician couldn't help but yelled as he watched his companion die tragically, "What the hell is this!"
Just when he was about to curse a few more words to ease his inner fear, there was a "poof" sound, and the servant's back cracked, and black flaky tentacles swarmed out from it. This dead corpse seemed to be transformed into an unknown door.
At the gate, a strange life is coming through its body.
Before the magic salvo was completed, the monster had already broken out of its body. The moment the jellyfish-like monster emitting dark purple light appeared, the surrounding area darkened visibly to the naked eye, as if there was some invisible force that blocked the light, and gradually
, it is the only thing left in everyone's field of vision, and the companions who are close at hand cannot see it.
Fortunately, the sound could still be transmitted, so the situation was not further confused. Countless magic was poured into the air without magic. Even so, the huge jellyfish still used her soft "piece of cloth" to take away a poor man before disappearing.
The soul of the magician greeted his death with a half-kneeling posture, his eyes full of horror.
At the same time, people searching in other directions also encountered strange attacks.
Someone was suddenly hugged by the ankles of arms stretched out from the shadow, and then the shadow rose up, letting their heads fly into the air with blood.
Someone suddenly disappeared while walking, and when he reappeared, he was already a skeleton wearing armor, and his body was covered with morning glory.
Some people seem to have been invaded by evil spirits. A twisted and writhing soul is changing every moment. The weird shadow can cause harm to the entity. It transforms into a headless werewolf and a mutilated brother.
Bryn, with its huge eyes and different attack methods, made the surrounding magicians unable to resist. If it hadn't moved slowly, they might have suffered heavy casualties.
The leading magician finally couldn't hold himself back anymore and kept encountering enemies. Several magicians died miserably, and the enemies that appeared were completely beyond his comprehension. Looking at the trembling eldest son of Ryder beside him, he was keenly aware of something.
Grabbing Ryder's eldest son, regardless of the fact that he was a noble, the royal magician asked sternly: "What else did you see at that time? Tell me!" Fei
"No...no, I have said everything I can say!"
Ryder's eldest son's evasive eyes and clearly timid voice made everyone more certain that he was hiding something. During previous inquiries, they found that Ryder had clearly described various details, except for how he encountered the monster.
He seemed hesitant, as if he was thinking.
"You still don't know what happened, right? This is a monster we have never heard of, and there is more than one kind." The royal magician said angrily, "I don't think that this place that was originally quiet and peaceful will suddenly become their paradise.
There must be some reason."
Seeing that Ryder's eldest son was still hesitating, these royal magicians were no longer polite. They escorted Ryder's eldest son to the area near the ever-changing shadow. At this time, the shadow was attacking everything around him indiscriminately.
It emits blood-curdling screams from time to time, and it barely maintains a stable form for a moment, like chaos itself.
Getting closer, getting closer!
"What do you want to do, what do you want to do to me!"
Realizing that he was likely to be in contact with the shadow, Ryder's eldest son finally became anxious and started shouting. However, such a shout attracted the shadow who originally had his back turned to him.
Seeing that the shadow had the momentum to change direction and come towards him, he quickly shouted: "It's not our fault, it was just an accident, it was really an accident!"
"In the end what happened!"
"Sacrifice, we broke into a strange sacrifice. Maybe... maybe, we interrupted them and angered them. In short, it was an accident!"
Seeing that Ryder's eldest son relented but kept emphasizing "accident", the royal magician hurriedly evacuated. At just this moment, the shadow roared towards him with terrifying momentum.
It was not until the safe area that they asked again: "What are they?"
"The monsters called black slime bugs by adventurers. We originally wanted to find their lair, catch them all, and take away their slime balls. However, in the cave, they no longer hugged each other, but separated.
into a single individual, surrounding a strange and huge magic circle."
"I saw them using their own severed bodies as sacrifices. Every time they offered a sacrifice, the magic circle became a little brighter... At first we didn't pay attention to the weird and messy symbols and the weird magic circle, but took out the scroll.
I planned to dry their bodies so that I could take away the loot, but the magic circle suddenly erupted with a dazzling light." Fei.
"All the slime worms are crawling on the ground, as if they are welcoming some supreme existence..."
Having said this, Ryder's eldest son shuddered violently.
"I heard countless voices, echoing in the dark void. It was language and words that I couldn't understand. It made each of us feel irritable, and then...then there was the monster, which it described to me.
It's just as scary. At first I thought it was an illusion, but now..."
The royal magicians wanted to tear Ryder's eldest son into pieces, how dare he conceal such important information!
There is no doubt that Ryder's eldest son had realized the extremely horrific consequences of his interference the moment he escaped, but he still had luck and thought that the other party was just mediocre. As long as there were more people, a more powerful magician could defeat him.
Take action and everything will be fine together.
"That was a ritual. What exactly were they summoning?"
"Can the products of the summoning ritual continue to exist and affect the surroundings for such a long time?" Fei
"We know nothing about the summons, don't we?"
"Wrong magic may lead to completely unknown areas of knowledge. No one knows what changes have occurred in the ritual due to interference."
Darkness came silently, and no magician at the scene knew when he began to be shrouded in endless black mist.
Everyone who reacted realized that the "unknown existence" was approaching them. Each of them had a strong sense of being spied on, as if they were being scanned back and forth by pairs of eyes, and there was no privacy left in their bodies.
Amidst the black mist, a huge briquette-shaped floating object with countless tentacles shaking slowly entered everyone's field of vision. It was suspended quietly, and the black mist on its surface seemed to be the source of the surrounding darkness.
They didn't see the monster's thousand tentacles, but they definitely felt like prey being targeted by a predator. In the darkness, there seemed to be countless eyes locked on their every move.
"Do it!" Fei
The first step is to strike first. Facing this unknown monster, only by seizing the opportunity can you have a chance of survival.
The sound of the waves swept around them. Just when they were wondering why they could hear the sound of the waves here, their thoughts suddenly became extremely heavy, as if they had fallen into a deep dream.
Lu Yu looked at all the people present who were trapped in Sayer's spiritual magic, and considered how to release some survivors to spread the terror, but his eyes touched a woman in the royal magician team.
Lulu thought it looked very familiar, and after a long time, she reminded Lu Yu.
Sayer listened to the unconscious murmurs of these people who were in trance, and showed a disgusted expression - even in the hallucination, these people are first-class insects, and the Royal Magician is indeed not the same anywhere.
nice one.
If Lu Yu hadn't given the order first, he would have started the fun mode for all members.
"Let two-thirds go. I need enough people to testify about what happened here." Lu Yu named the woman in the team, "Don't kill the wrong one, she will stay." Fei
Sayer tapped his forehead, and after a ripple of mental magic rippled away, he turned around and disappeared into the darkness created by Lu Yu, disdainful to see the death of these people.
Lu Yu and Sayer exited the scene. After losing consciousness for a moment, the bewildered survivors woke up in the darkness and saw the miserable bodies of their companions on the ground. After trembling for a while, fear quickly filled their hearts.
Losing their organization, they ran wildly.
Among them was the woman named by Lu Yu, Ailan.
When she first arrived in Yas, the personal magician of Yas III left a good impression on Lu Yu and Lulu. As time passed, the long civil war in Yas and the natural disaster of the magic wave made her promoted to the sixth level.
Compared to Mela, this is a very barren area, but this is already a top magician.
However, compared to Lu Yu, who was nothing at the beginning, now she is just a pawn in the story that she manipulates.
"As the emperor's personal magician, what she said must have a great impact on Yas III's thoughts." Fei
"Go, go spread the stories here, be afraid of planarians, be afraid of all the unknown things hidden in the darkness."
