"Then what are you waiting for? Now the gatekeeper has helped us clear some obstacles. Once he gets the soul fruit, it will not be so easy for us to go again tomorrow." After Sophia finished speaking, she stood up directly.
Lin Haoming also walked out with her.
The remaining four people looked at each other, and Melia said eagerly: "Brother, let's go too, otherwise we won't be able to keep up with them."
"It's too dangerous." Fried frowned.
Melia was unwilling to accept it and said: "You also heard what Sophia said before. He said that we have no chance to become official wizards. If we seize the opportunity in front of us, will we have a chance? If we cannot become official wizards, we will always remain as official wizards.
What’s the point of being a wizard’s apprentice? Besides, brother, you still have a lot of hope.”
These words made Fried a little excited. He did know his situation. If he could strengthen his mental strength, there might be more hope. So he gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go. If it's too dangerous, we'll withdraw."
At this time, Lin Haoming and Sophia had already walked into the gate of the Lost Garden. As soon as they entered the door, what seemed to be a garden was completely different from what they saw outside. A gravel path passed through the dark woods.
Leading to a house not far away.
The house looked very big, like a villa, and it should have three floors from a distance. At this moment, the frightened screams were still echoing in my ears, and they came from that house.
Ivana was walking in front, but Sophia took out a candle from her pocket and lit it before following Ivana.
Lin Haoming was also ready, holding the Ruiyi Arrow in one hand and putting it on his belt with the other.
As the candle burned, Lin Haoming smelled a fishy smell. It was obvious that the candle was mostly made of some kind of grease. The raw material was unknown, but under the light of the candle, the candles on both sides of the path were shaking.
The branches seemed to be just outside the range of the light, and Lin Haoming knew that it was still safe for the time being.
"Go quickly! Sophia reminded.
Lin Haoming heard it and followed closely. He could feel that the trees on both sides of the path were not good things.
Just as the two people had walked out for a while, the other four people also walked in. However, they did not see Lin Haoming and Sophia. In front of them was not a gravel road but a pond. There was a stone bridge in the middle of the pond.
After crossing the stone bridge, you will arrive in front of a villa.
After being surprised by the environment here, Marvin quickly asked in confusion: "Where are they? They shouldn't be much faster than us. Have they already entered the house through the stone bridge?"
"Unless you ran across it, it shouldn't be that fast." Meria judged based on the distance of the bridge.
"Be careful." Fried stopped his sister from crossing the bridge immediately. He took off a leather bag from his waist, and then a mouse as big as a rabbit came out.
This is a path-finding mouse, which is very useful when you can't tell the direction. However, after this path-finding mouse was released, it seemed to be very scared. It just hid under Fried's feet and shivered, and did not actively find the way.
the meaning of.
Seeing this situation, several people frowned, and Fried was silently chanting a curse at the moment. Following the pathfinder mouse under his feet, a little blue light emitted from his eyes. The fear just now seemed to disappear, and then he started walking towards the bridge.
past.
Everyone looked at the path-finding mouse, and sure enough, they had only gone less than a fifth of the way. Suddenly something stuck out of the water on one side, and pulled the path-finding mouse on the bridge into the water, and they were not there at all.
Didn't see clearly what it was.
"Brother Fried." Marvin swallowed in fear.
Fried looked at Melia and asked, "Did you see clearly?"
"It's a vine." Meria said, her eyes had been glowing red just now, and she watched a water vine wrap around the pathfinder at an alarming speed.
"Why don't you try what's in the water first?" Sakula suggested.
Seeing that the tall Sakura also looked guilty, Fried nodded, then took out a spar and threw it directly into the water.
After throwing it out, Fried began to recite the spell again, and the crystal stone thrown in also emitted light in the water, and the light became brighter and brighter. But at this moment, the light suddenly disappeared.
Just when everyone was confused, the water suddenly exploded, and a huge monster comparable to the cabin they lived in before appeared in front of several people. This monster was wrapped in a carapace, but there were many tentacles coming out of some holes in the carapace.
Sticking out from the middle, these tentacles are very similar to water vines.
"What kind of monster is this!" Marvin trembled with fear when he saw it.
Melia also regretted it at this time, but when she looked at the door she came in from before, the door was gone.
"Where is the door?" Melia exclaimed, her eyes flashing with red light, as if she wanted to see through the hallucination, but she couldn't see through it at all.
At this time, Lin Haoming and Sophia had already crossed the path in the forest, and one third of Sophia's candle had been burned out.
A candle that is clearly as long as the palm of your hand would burn a tenth of it quickly if it burned for such a short time, but this candle burned so much.
Before Lin Haoming could think clearly, Sophia spoke again: "We have to find a way to get in. The Hundred-Faced Tree is inside."
"This house has no door?" Lin Haoming noticed at this moment, and not only did it not have a door, even the windows were very small, unable to accommodate a person in and out, and they were all in a very high place. There were no windows on the first floor.
Just when Lin Haoming was looking at the windows, some light appeared in the windows. Soon the light flew directly out from inside, and Lin Haoming could see clearly what the light was.
These are actually bats, but the bats actually have human faces, but none of them have fangs exposed. They are extremely ugly and ferocious.
"It's a human-faced bat." Sophia reminded.
Lin Haoming also knows these things, but he is really not afraid of these human-faced bats, because these things are best at creating hallucinations and mental attacks, and this is what Lin Haoming is least afraid of.
Of course, in order to prevent some of his secrets from being discovered, Lin Haoming's neck flashed with a faint light, and a pendant crystal hanging around his neck emitted light.
This is a mental power necklace. Its function is to improve mental power and break illusions. It is also a valuable magic weapon. Lin Haoming purchased it after selling some potions.
Sophia also noticed it at this time, so she said: "You and sister, let's see who solves more of these things."
"Okay!" Lin Haoming agreed, then twitched a whip with a thorn from his belt and whipped it into the air.
