The old magician did not tell this answer, and his story ended here, refusing to continue. This made Du Wei very depressed. Whether in his previous life or in this life, he was a very curious guy.
It was such a mysterious story, but he didn't give an answer even though it was half told, which really made him feel uncomfortable.
However, the old magician at least vaguely answered one of Du Wei's questions: "Our goal is to go all the way north. Taking you... will naturally be useful when the time comes."
All right!
Du Wei gritted his teeth. Since he had already boarded the black ship, he might as well go all the way to the black ship. Besides, under the hands of such two strong men, Du Wei had no choice.
Although there is Queen Medusa behind him, Du Wei is not naive enough to think that Queen Medusa will obey his orders. This beautiful snake, who is almost catastrophically beautiful, follows him purely to "observe human nature."
.So, don’t expect others to be your thugs and younger brothers.
All the way north...what's in the north?
The old magician smiled mysteriously: "You'll know when you get there."
If it weren't for the huge gap in strength between the two sides, Du Wei would have really wanted to take off his boots and hit the old magician on the nose. Let's see if this old guy would still be smiling so proudly if his nose was flattened.
!
Just like that, Dardanelle was missing from the team, but an old magician was added to the team.
"We have to hurry up." The old magician announced: "I have arranged a magic circle for the guys in the temple, right on the shore of the Great Round Lake. According to my estimation of them, they want to get out of that magic circle.
It will take two days. And I have arranged some falsehoods for them, hoping that they will pursue us in the opposite direction."
Okay, let’s hit the road!
Du Wei sighed.
The old magician took out the endless baggage from his arms. He put his hand in it for a while and took out a whistle. He held it in his mouth and blew it for a while... The whistle did not make any sound, but
Next to them, Hussein and Medusa frowned at the same time.
Obviously, this is another magic tool.
Not long after, the sound of running was heard in the snow, and then in Du Wei's surprised eyes, four strong wolves ran out of the snow in the forest!
Ice and Snow Wolf!!
"Oh! No, no, don't move, don't scare these little guys!" The old magician waved his hand to stop Du Wei and Hussein's attack intention. He walked over slowly, opened his sleeves and spoke.
He muttered a spell that Du Wei couldn't understand. The four ice and snow wolves in the snow were as docile as domestic puppies. They whined a few times and obediently bent down and lay on the snow.
In the ground, let the old magician gently stroke the fur on their backs.
Then the old magician smiled and said: "Okay, there are four of us. Each of us rides one. This is better than walking on legs."
Riding... a wolf?
Or the Ice and Snow Demonic Wolf?
Du Wei didn't know whether he should sigh or sigh.
"Come here, kid." The old magician said with a very kind smile: "You are the smallest and the lightest... Oh. Just ride it." As he said, he pointed at one of the gray-haired animals.
Demonic wolf, when the demonic wolf saw Du Wei approaching, all of its hair suddenly stood on end, and it let out an extremely unfriendly whining and threatening sound. At the same time, it bared its teeth and glared at Duwei.
"Are you sure? I'll ride it?" Looking at this demonic wolf, Du Wei suspected that if he took one step closer, it would definitely open its mouth and swallow him.
"Come here! Don't be afraid!" The old magician waved to Du Wei, and at the same time he hugged the wolf's head and leaned in, as if whispering something in the wolf's ear. Then the magic wolf calmed down and followed meekly.
The old magician walked to Duweidi's side.
Although the intermediate monster like the Ice and Snow Wolf is not too tall, it is nearly twice as tall as an ordinary wolf. It lay down in front of Du Wei docilely, and Du Wei tried to touch it under the guidance of the old magician.
The demon wolf didn't resist when he touched its back. Instead, he lowered his head and snorted a few times.
"Okay. It likes you." The old magician smiled and said: "Now, ride on it, don't move around, I will control where they go."
When he and the old magician entered the frozen forest before, Du Wei was already in awe of his ability to communicate with animals. At that time, he looked at the few snow dogs that the old magician got randomly from nowhere, but he was surprised.
It can be controlled so freely that even the knowledgeable Du Wei can't identify what kind of magic it is... Communicate with animals? I have never heard of any type of magic that has this ability?
Hussein and Medusa did not need the help of the old magician. Hussein used the powerful fighting spirit of the knight to suppress the magic wolf. The magic wolf under him let out a mournful cry, and helplessly stood up and walked with the knight on his back.
If he was slightly dissatisfied, the knight would gently flick his finger on the wolf's forehead, causing it to jump in pain.
As for Medusa, it's even more terrifying. Top-level monsters have the instinct to summon lower-level monsters for their own control. Medusa is sitting on the back of a demon wolf, but the demon wolf is already frightened.
Whisper, be as docile as possible.
However, Medusa unexpectedly "looked" at the old magician one more time. Although she did not really open her eyes, there was clearly a hint of surprise written on the face facing the old magician.
"Your ability to communicate with living beings is very good." Medusa said softly: "It's been a long time since I've seen a purebred virtue like you..."
At this point, Medusa suddenly smiled and shut up.
The old magician nodded gratefully, then coughed: "Okay, let's get on our way!"
At this moment, a sharp cry suddenly came from the canyon behind him: "Her Majesty the Queen! Her Majesty the Queen! Wait for me!!"
Then I saw a gray meat ball "rolling" out of the entrance of the canyon. It was none other than the rat prime minister, Lord Gargamel.
Gargamel had already taken off his ridiculous prime minister's robe, and was wearing a fur coat made of unknown animal fur over his gray fur. He had a must-have funny hat tilted on his head, and he was carrying a small bag behind his back.
The baggage, with all its limbs working together, ran wildly in front of everyone, threw it on the ground, and cried loudly: "Your Majesty the Queen! You can't just leave poor Gargamel like this! If you leave, what can Gargamel do here alone?
Live on! You know, I am a mouse now. I can't return to the human world... But if I stay here, the canyon belongs to the tree people again... I..."
Even though Medusa is a monster and has no understanding of human nature, Gargamel has been with her for twenty years and taught her a lot of human knowledge. When she heard Gargamel begging, she couldn't help but sigh slightly. Medusa thought for a moment.
After a while: "Okay. Then you can follow."
Gargamel was overjoyed when he heard this. He had already made up his mind to follow Medusa. He had already packed his own things in the bag behind him. As for the rat people in the valley... let them fend for themselves!
At this moment, I got the consent and immediately wiped away my tears. Just looking around, I felt a little confused.
There are four magic wolves in total.
Gargamel is very small and does not take up much weight. Even if he squeezes in with someone and rides a wolf, it will be no problem. But after looking at it, Queen Medusa is too beautiful to be human, and she has accumulated power for many years. Gargamel
How dare you go up and ride with her?
As for the knight with an indifferent face who was ready to cut his own neck with a sword, Gargamel had no time to hide from him! If he rode with him, maybe one of his words on the road would offend him, and his rat head would move.
.
As for that strange old magician... let's forget it.
After looking at it for a long time, Du Wei still seemed the kindest. With a sly smile on Gargamel's face, Gargamel walked over, bowed his head, and before he spoke, Du Wei already understood what it meant and sighed: "Okay,
Come up, but... you can probably become smaller, right?"
Gargamel nodded quickly. Although it transformed from a human body into a mouse, that was because it drank the fountain of youth. Naturally, 90% of its magical transformation skills were disabled. It could not transform back into an adult or into other forms. But
At least it can be done by maintaining the shape of a mouse and getting smaller.
I saw it shake its body a few times. It muttered a few spells, swayed a few times, and immediately shrank down, finally becoming the size of an ordinary mouse. But it was still very fat and round.
It's about the size of a meat ball. It's just that this look is much more pleasing to the eye. It's a bit like the pet mouse that many girls in Du Wei's previous life liked to keep, and it's also a bit like a famous cartoon character in Du Wei's previous life.
The work of Japanese animation master Jun Miyagi: Totoro My Neighbor Totoro.
Du Wei picked it up with both hands and carried Gargamel's baggage behind him. Then Du Wei put Gargamel on his chest and coat, but warned: "Be careful and don't move. If you dare
Get into my clothes, or I'll roast you and eat you!"
Following the old magician's shout, the four magic wolves immediately spread their legs and ran as hard as they could!
In the boundless forest and snowfield, four strong demonic wolves ran hard, leaving a long series of footprints on the snow. But after a while, a dark cloud gathered in the sky again, and then there were snowflakes, and these footprints were quickly wiped out.
Covered up.
The running speed of these magic wolves is much faster than ordinary horses! In addition, the magic wolves are already agile and can jump up and down. Even if the forest is blocked by thick trees, they can jump onto the branches and continue.
go ahead.
Sitting on the back of a wolf was much more uncomfortable than sitting on a horse. Although the journey was fast, the bumps almost knocked Du Wei's body apart.
Fortunately, when he was resting at night, Du Wei could stretch his body to his heart's content and did the same set of movements several times in one breath before he felt relieved.
When Du Wei moved, the old magician watched from the side. After watching Du Wei do it for the first time, the old magician sighed: "Hussein taught you this set of things, right?"
Du Wei did not hide it and admitted it directly. The old magician's face was a little complicated. He stared at Du Wei for a long time, then sighed and turned away. In the wind, he seemed to be saying to himself:
"It's destined... everything is destined. I taught him the first set, and then Hussein could teach him the second set... These coincidences are all destiny."
I rode these magic wolves all the way for about four days. During the four days, I ran wildly in the forest during the day, camped and rested at night, and got up early in the morning to continue on the road.
At this point, even though the magic wolves are much stronger than ordinary wolves, with strong bodies and sharp claws, working as hard labor on the road like this is finally too much. The four wolves are all a little depressed. The old magician sees it.
, on the fifth day, he let the wolves go, and then took out his whistle.
This time after he blew the whistle, it was not the demon wolf that was summoned. Instead, with a rustling movement, a large hole sank into the ground in the snow! Then, out of the hole, a beast with a full body length crawled out.
As big as a queen bed
spider!
Looking at such a huge giant spider standing in front of me, it gently shakes off the ice and snow on its body. The thick eight limbs and claws are covered with a thick layer of yellow hair! Circles of black stripes are exposed on the round belly.
And its face... After Du Wei took one look at it, he almost didn't dare to look at it a second time!
This giant spider actually has a human-like face! But it seems to be distorted. The facial features are a bit misaligned, and after opening its mouth, there are two giant teeth!
The old magician jumped on the spider's back as if no one was watching, then gently pressed on the spider's head and closed his eyes...
After a while, he gently wiped his sweat and said with a smile: "Okay, come up... come up."
Gargamel in Duwei's arms was trembling with fear, and his teeth were chattering: "Evil-Faced Spider Queen! God! This is an 'Evil-Faced Spider Queen'!"
The Evil-Faced Spider Queen?
Du Wei frowned and couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body!
Du Wei, who had learned a lot about Warcraft along the way, once heard Beinrich, the leader of the Snow Wolf Mercenary Group, mention several high-level Warcraft, including this Evil-Faced Spider Queen.
This is a terrible and disgusting thing. They... "they" to be precise. This kind of spider grows under the deep cold ice underground, and often after the male and female spiders mate, the female spider will eat the male spider.
.So, the spiders that can grow to a large area are all female spiders, so they are called "spider queens".
This kind of monster lives under the ice and snow. It is extremely powerful. It can easily tear ice that is harder than metal. Their body is covered with a hard shell! If you want to know how hard it is... In history
It has been recorded that several fifth-level warriors slashed at it with their swords with all their strength, but they could not hurt it at all.
At the same time, they also have the instinct of spiders: spinning silk and making webs!
The spider silk of this kind of monster is extremely tough, and the sword can cut it continuously. It is several times stronger than an iron chain, and it contains fatal dissolving venom! Once the prey is entangled in this spider silk web, the venom will immediately invade the body, and then
Dissolves quickly throughout the body!
That's not all. This kind of spider has another powerful ability, that is, they can spread a poisonous mist!
This is a kind of weakness magic that has been strengthened several times. Once these spiders face the enemy, they can spread the poisonous mist and make the enemy weak several times. Whether it is magic or martial arts, it will be weakened a lot. Moreover, it can also weaken the enemy several times.
With strong penetrating power...even if you hold your breath, the poisonous mist can invade your body through the pores of your skin.
The disgusting thing about it lies in the eating habits of this kind of thing.
When capturing prey, they will not kill the prey immediately, but use venom to paralyze the prey and keep the prey alive... They will not bite or eat the prey, but they will have this long growth in their mouths.
A long, sharp straw-like thing that can be inserted into the prey's body and then...sucked!
Sucking blood, brain plasma, bone marrow... anything liquid or semi-liquid!
Even the prey paralyzed by the venom can still maintain a clear consciousness when being sucked, but the pain will be much lower... and you can watch this monster sucking its own body fluids!
Moreover, this kind of spider monster is a kind of guy who likes to "storage". They will not eat their prey at once, but eat half...and leave half! Often after the prey has sucked a lot of liquid, it will still use it.
The spider silk is wrapped into a cocoon-like state and stored... Even after being stored for a period of time, the prey is still alive!
I don't know what kind of skills the old magician used to be able to attract and control such high-level magical beasts, but obviously he is not as easy as controlling those magical wolves before.
He breathed a sigh of relief. The old magician looked at Du Wei, who was in a daze, and said with a smile: "What's wrong? Boy, aren't you scared? Okay, this guy is very obedient, come up quickly."
Du Wei endured his nausea and climbed onto the spider's back. The yellow furry tentacles on the spider's back made Du Wei feel sick for a while, but after he sat down firmly, he said with a wry smile: "I said, can you not do it next time?"
Such a disgusting thing? Can't you summon four more demon wolves?"
"Magic wolf?" The old magician smiled: "Boy, look at this place! This is already the northern section of the Frozen Forest! All that can move here are high-level magic beasts! Intermediate magic beasts like ice and snow wolves,
It doesn’t exist here at all! I’m lucky to have found such a big guy.”
Seeing Hussein sitting down next to Du Wei without saying a word, Medusa hesitated for a moment... It seems that snakes don't like spiders either.
Gargamel was still hiding in Du Wei's arms and shivering. Du Wei couldn't help but mutter: "What method does this old guy use to drive these magical beasts..."
Just before Du Wei finished mumbling, a familiar voice suddenly came from deep in his heart:
"You can't guess? You can't guess?"
Du Wei almost shouted!
Semmel?
Semel, who had been unable to be contacted for so many days, finally responded!
Semmel relied on Du Wei's mental power to survive. There was no need to talk at this moment, tightly in the spiritual world of his mind, Semmel's voice fell directly into Du Wei's mind clearly, word by word.
"It's in vain that you have read so many books and claim to be the most knowledgeable person in the Luo Lin family. Why can't you turn around on this matter? You always think that this is a kind of magic. Why don't you think about other things outside of magic?
Luzi? Let me tell you. This ability to control living creatures is not earth-binding magic at all, but a very famous thing... Did you guess it?"
Controlling creatures...controlling creatures...
Du Wei's eyes suddenly lit up!
Indeed, this is indeed not some type of magic!
But...
Du Wei secretly glanced at the old magician. Suddenly he remembered what Medusa almost said that day!
Germany...
What is virtue?
Druid!!
Only the Druids, a magical race, can have this innate ability to be close to nature and communicate with all living things!
However, Du Wei had read in the literature that on this continent of Roland, the name Druid was already a historical term. This magical race became extinct a long time ago.
But there are no absolutes in this world.
"Hey." Du Wei thought of this and suddenly smiled: "Old guy... I suddenly thought of you. You are a Druid, right? I didn't expect that you are actually a Druid! Druid
Isn’t the race extinct?”
The old magician didn't have the slightest bit of surprise on his face. He gave Du Wei a cold look, as if he didn't care, and whispered in a low voice: "You guessed it? Humph. Semel told you, right? Otherwise, just because you are like this
You kid, how could you guess that? I’m afraid you don’t even know what a Druid is! Stop shouting. Everyone here knows who I am except you!”
Sure enough, Medusa had recognized the old magician's true identity a few days ago, and Hussein also had a calm look on his face, obviously he had known it for a long time.
The only one who doesn't know until now is probably Du Wei... Oh, and maybe the mouse in his arms.
The old magician's eyes suddenly lit up, and his face showed a bit of excitement: "Semmel has communicated with you? Can you ask her to come out... Oh, why doesn't she want to see me?"
Du Wei had also been thinking about the relationship between the old magician and Semmel. He asked in his heart, and Semmel's answer was a little confused: "I don't know... I shouldn't know him. But I don't know why.
I just feel very resistant to this person in my heart, as if I don’t want to get close to this guy.”
Du Wei shrugged his shoulders and before he spoke, the old magician already guessed something when he saw Du Wei's face. He sighed: "Forget it...she doesn't want to see me. This is not surprising. It's just,
I just want her to come out and take a look...see this place! We were here together before!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Du Wei felt a sudden gust of wind behind him, and then Semmel put a hand on Du Wei's shoulder. Du Wei turned around and saw Semmel had appeared and stood beside him.
Behind her, her silver hair looked particularly elegant in this place of ice and snow. Her red dress and bare feet were just floating in the air, looking dreamily into the distance.
When the old magician saw Semel, his face showed excitement, and he took a deep breath: "You...you are finally willing to show yourself!"
"I don't know you." Semmel looked into the distance with a look of confusion on his face, and shook his head: "I'm not the Semmel you know. Besides, I've never been here... But why?
The feeling of familiarity in my heart is getting stronger and stronger?"
Hussein snorted, hugging his long sword and closing his eyes to rest, while Medusa said nothing, just faced the direction where Semmel was standing, frowning in silence (although Semmel looked ordinary)
It's invisible. But Queen Medusa doesn't need to "see" at all, she can already sense that there is an extra person here.)
"Although this kid said that you are not Semel, but just a magical creature... But I feel that this may not be true." The old magician stared at Semel closely with deep eyes: "You feel familiar with this place.
…is it true? What does that feel like?”
A look of fierceness suddenly appeared on Semel's beautiful face. This look of fierceness flashed through her eyes, and her bright red robe suddenly rolled up in the cold wind, and she shouted: "I don't know! But!
All I know is that as I stand here, I suddenly hate you very much! Suddenly I feel that I hate you so much in my heart... I can't help but think... think... want to kill you!"
As she spoke, she raised her slender fingers and pointed at the old magician. A layer of frost had already covered her pretty face. There was a hint of cold air on her fingertips, and the cold air was faintly mixed with sizzling electric light!
"Hahahahahaha!!" The old magician laughed loudly, and then looked at Semel's fingertips: "Look! Look at your fingers! Do you still dare to say that you are just a magical creature? A pure spirit.
It is impossible for a physical magical creature to use magic! Look between your fingers! What is that! Isn’t that the star magic you used back then!!”
Semel couldn't help but froze when she heard the words. She lowered her head and looked at her fingers. The confusion in her eyes became more intense, and she couldn't help but trembled: "I...what's going on...I, how can I use magic?"
?”
Du Wei was sighing.
Use magic? This woman has used magic more than once or twice along the way. One of them almost killed her in a fight with Hussein. But the first two times she seemed to be in a state of confusion, but now she is sober.
Down.
"Semmel..." The old magician's voice suddenly softened, and there seemed to be something called "tenderness" in his eyes, and he whispered: "I don't know what happened to you.
But I believe I can figure it out, okay, let me help you restore your memory?"
"No!" Semmel suddenly changed his color and shouted: "I don't want to restore any memory! I am not the astrologer Semmel you mentioned! I am me, I am a magical creature! Old guy! Don't bother me.
!”
After saying that, Semel waved his hand and disappeared with a hiss.
Du Wei and others fell into silence, all with strange expressions.
Only Gargamel in Du Wei's arms suddenly managed to dig out a mouse head, squinted his eyes in the cold wind, and asked curiously: "What did you just say? Who did you just talk to? What Semel? What do I think?
not see?"
But it seems that no one will pay attention to the curiosity of the Mouse Prime Minister. Du Wei stuffed it into his coat, turned to look at the old magician, his eyes flashed: "I said, do you still have many things to do?
Tell us? Old guy?"
"When you find out, I will let you know." The old magician's expression was a little gloomy, and there was even some pain in his eyes.
"So, what about Semmel? She is now connected with my spiritual power! I don't care whether she is a real Semmel or a magical creature. I think I need to know something about her.
"
"Okay." The old magician thought for a moment.
His expression was a little haggard, and the pain in his eyes became more intense. He slowly sat down and sat on the spider's back. At this moment, he seemed to have aged ten years.
"Semmel..." the old magician said in a deep voice: "I met her a long time ago... well, more than two hundred years ago. At that time, she was still a famous female astrologer all over the continent.
division."
"Then what?"
The old magician suddenly laughed, his laughter rising from low to high, and he looked at Du Wei with a strange look in his eyes: "Boy, you are such a smart person, haven't you guessed it yet?"
He patted his mage robe gently and sneered: "Semmel, originally a pure master of astrology, without any magic...but suddenly he was able to comprehend a magical set of star magic on his own! Could it be that
, Don’t you think it’s strange? Humph, you’ve learned a little bit about Star Fighting Qi now. When you hear the name Star Magic, don’t you think it’s strange? Don’t you even have the slightest association with it?”
"Just because I thought of it, I need to ask you for confirmation." Du Wei said coldly.
"Semmel... She was such a simple woman at first, a genius obsessed with astrology, and a female scholar who wanted to make astrology more popular. But the star magic she suddenly realized later... is actually...
The old magician pointed at his nose: "Actually, the truth is very simple! She is just like me, she is also a descendant of Aragorn! We were supposed to be companions, but later... we turned against each other!"
