Journey to the witch world

Forest world, purify the forest.

The desolate land seems to be dry, and spiderweb-like ditches are spreading in all directions, symbolizing the continuous loss of natural power, causing the place to become more and more desolate.

In the distance, a tree has gradually withered. The originally strong trunk has shrunk to the thickness of an arm, as if it could be broken at any time, and the human-like face on the surface also shows an extremely wrinkled expression.

Swish, swish, swish!

There was a faint sound, and the tree man, who was on the verge of death, opened his eyes with difficulty, and a figure in black robes appeared in his cloudy eyes.

"Wizard..." The tree man's voice was weak.

On the spot, Gustav moved forward slowly, looking around, looking at the purified forest that was about to turn into a desert, and sighed and shook his head.

Purify the forest!

In the restricted area of ​​the forest world, where the tree of Airkila sealed the disaster beast Ocino, the purified forest was once covered with plants and trees, but now it is obviously completely desolate.

The former lord of the world, the fourth-level life form Elqira Tree, has also been severely injured by Froslai and is trapped in the Purified Forest, unable to escape.

"Without the power of nature, the tree people in the forest world will eventually be annihilated in history..." Gustav walked forward, looking at the dying tree people not far away, and shook his head slightly.

Decades ago, the Purified Forest was still the territory of the Giant Tree Clan. At that time, countless tall giant trees gathered together, almost blocking out the sky and the sun, guarding the Purified Forest.

But now, everything is gone.

After Frosilei used the disaster beast Ocino to severely damage the Akiela Tree, the purified forest was also contaminated by the disaster beast's breath, and a large amount of natural power passed away, claiming the lives of countless giant tree clans.

The tree that was on the verge of death just now could even reach the level of a second-order life form in its heyday, but now it is dying and is the last of the giant tree clan.

Gustav moved forward past the tree men.

Not long after, he had arrived at the core area of ​​the purified forest. The ground here showed an extremely strange black color, as terrifying as a black hole that swallowed everything.

"Is this right here?"

On the spot, Gustav stopped, looked towards the darkness ahead, took a deep breath and started to move forward.

The deeper he went into the darkness, the weirder the aura he felt became. Gustav even felt that the magic power in his body was passing away. Although it was only a little bit, it was enough to make him wary.

at this time.

Gustav, who was moving forward, suddenly stopped and looked forward. On the endless dark land, the existence of a green light was as conspicuous as a source of water in the desert.

And around the green light are countless runes.

The star-like runes show colorful colors, floating in the darkness, looking down from above, forming a faintly majestic witch formation comparable to the witchcraft array arranged by Phantom Crows at the base camp of the Dark Pole Realm.

However, compared with the defensive witch formation arranged at the Crow Phantom Base Camp, the witch formation built with countless runes in front of them is for sealing.

In the core area of ​​the sealing witch formation, a monster like a giant scorpion is crawling on the ground. A human figure is carried on the spacious black carapace. It is in meditation with its eyes closed, and illusory crows are circling around it.

Lord of Crow Phantoms, Froslai!

"Master Dean!"

Gustav stopped and called softly to the figure on the back of the disaster beast Ochino.

After feeling Gustav's aura, Froslai slowly opened his eyes, and there was a faint emerald green light flashing in his eyes.

"You're here." Froslai said.

Gustav nodded slightly, with a solemn expression on his face, and said solemnly, ": Mr. Dean, I already have clues about what you asked me to investigate. Crowley did die near the Tower of Blood!"

Froslai's face was calm, but there was a glint of thought on his face.

"The Tower of Blood at this time has been occupied by the demon army. I also took advantage of the Thousand Hands Demon's absence to quietly investigate." Gustav said.

"What's the result?" Froslai asked.

"In the area where the Blood Tower collapsed... I found the breath of the Purgatory Bone Dragon!" Gustav hesitated for a moment, then dropped a bombshell.

However, Froslai did not show too much surprise at this, he just frowned slightly and murmured to himself.

"Is it just the breath of the Purgatory Bone Dragon?"

Gustav pondered for a moment and then said, "The presence of the Purgatory Bone Dragon's breath near the Blood Tower is not enough to explain everything?"

"The leakage of the coordinates of the forest world is inherently weird. Although we claim to the outside world that it was the Tree of Airkila that passed the coordinates to the abyss through means, in fact, everyone knows it."

Gustav opened his palms and said, "Contaminated by the energy of the disaster beast Ocino and sealed by the witch formation, the Akiela Tree is almost in a sleeping state, and the possibility of transmitting information to the outside world is almost zero!"

Froslai narrowed his eyes and said faintly: "Do you even think that the leak of the coordinates has nothing to do with the Tree of Elqira, but is a traitor in the Wizards Alliance who passed it to the abyss world?"

"Don't you think so...the dean?"

Gustav's face was serious and he said in a deep voice, "You should know very well how dedicated Crosno is to being promoted to a fourth-level wizard. In order to compete for the coordinates of the forest world, he could even initiate a war!"

"Now, in order to fight for control of the forest world, he may not turn to the abyss. After all, that guy has always been crazy!"

Gustave's voice was resounding, and he seemed to have confirmed everything. In his opinion, since the breath of the Purgatory Bone Dragon had been found near the Tower of Blood, Crowley's death must be inseparable from Crosno. relation.

Even when the spatial coordinates of the forest world were leaked, it was Krosno who did it!

Froslai's eyes flickered and he seemed to be deep in thought. All the evidence and clues pointed to Crosno, but he still could not conclude that the matter was exactly as Gustav had inferred.

"Give me the order, Master Dean!"

On the spot, Gustav took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Krosno has betrayed the Wizards Alliance. If we don't take action as soon as possible, someone else will probably die!"

After hearing Gustav's words, Froslai shook his head and said, "Before there is no definite evidence, rashly attacking Crosno will only cause the expeditionary force to fall into greater panic."

"What's more, now I'm trying to reach the fourth-level wizard realm, and Crowley has died. Just relying on you and Christina, Kathleen may not be able to deal with Crosno who has the Infernal Bone Dragon!"

"What's more, there is the Thousand-Handed Demon..."

After Floslay said this, Gustav also frowned slightly, seeming to be deep in thought. Although he didn't want to admit it, this was indeed the case.

Among the third-level wizards in the Dark Realm, Crosno, who owns the Purgatory Bone Dragon, is the second strongest after Froslai. If the other party has surrendered to the abyss, then Gustav and the other three may not be able to defeat him. Can deal with him.

"For now... let's stabilize the situation."

After pondering for a moment, Froslai spoke again and said softly, "Although the forest world today has been invaded by the abyss army, there are wizard towers everywhere, which can temporarily resist the Thousand-Handed Demon."

"What we lack now, time can definitely be ranked first..."

Gustav's eyes flashed and he hesitated, ": Dean, are you still unable to integrate the Heart of the World and be promoted to a fourth-level wizard?"

"Ha! How can it be that easy?"

Froslai shook his head, with a bitter smile on his face, and said faintly: "The Heart of the World is the root of a world, and it is also the most precious resource in the world. Even if I am a third-level wizard, it will not take me a short time to fuse it." Things you can do within yourself!”

As Froslai said just now, the most lacking thing for the Phantom Crows and the Wizards Alliance is time.

Because it takes time for Froslai to fuse the Heart of the World. Only by being promoted to a fourth-level wizard can he be qualified to expel the Thousand-Handed Demon from the forest world and truly end this war.

Gustave fell silent.

"But fortunately, at least I have taken the first step." Seeing this, Froslai showed a smile on his face and slowly stretched out a palm.

As the palm of the hand opened, a ball of green light suddenly bloomed, even dispersing the surrounding darkness, allowing the central area of ​​the forest to be purified and bathed in the glory of nature again.

The heart of the world!

Gustav's eyes flashed and he stared at the green light in Froslai's palm. It was a plant similar to a sapling, with soft green light emitting from its entire body, and its roots were planted in a mud pot.

The heart of the world represents the essence of a world. Therefore, the hearts of the world bred in different worlds also have different forms. For example, the heart of the world in the forest world is a green plant. This leads to the creation of the entire world. Mostly related to plants.

In the palm of your hand, green plants exude a soft light.

But in the soft light, at the center like a flower bud, an illusory baby bird form was faintly revealed.

The power of the phantom crow!

As the leader of the Phantom Crows, the meditation method Froslai mastered was naturally the Phantom Crow Thousand Spirits. The magic power in his body had already been transformed into the power of the Phantom Crow when he became an official wizard.

"It took me so long, but I finally left a mark on the heart of the world!" The corners of Froslai's lips raised slightly, and the luster in his eyes shone.

"Finally...has it started?" Suddenly, Gustav's breathing became a little rapid, and his tone also revealed a hint of excitement.

Leaving the mark of the Phantom Crow on the Heart of the World is the first step to integrate the Heart of the World, and it is also the most difficult step. As long as this step is taken, all it takes for Floslay to fully integrate with the Heart of the World is time. .

"It takes at least ten years to completely integrate the Heart of the World." Then, Froslai withdrew his palm, and the light emitted by the potted plant was extinguished in an instant.

Then, Froslai said, "I need to stay in the Purified Forest to suppress the Tree of Airkila and integrate the heart of the forest world."

"Everything outside can only be left to you, Gustave."

"Although you have not been promoted to the third level wizard for a long time, as a conqueror wizard, there is no doubt about your fighting ability. Besides, compared to Christina, I have more confidence in your ability!"

Gustav bowed slightly and said, "Don't worry, Lord Froslai, Gustav will definitely stop the abyss demon army and buy you enough time!"

"Then... please!" Froslai said after taking a deep breath.

Then, Gustav saluted again, then turned around and left the place, his figure gradually disappearing into the darkness.

After Gustav left, the smile on Froslai's face gradually disappeared, becoming expressionless, and his eyes sparkled.

"Could it be you? Gustave..."

Froslai murmured to himself, his eyes flashing with thought, and said, "Now I can be sure of one thing, that is, there is indeed a traitor in the alliance, but who will it be?"

The purgatory bone dragon aura that appears near the Blood Tower does not mean anything. There are tens of thousands of purgatory bone dragons in the abyss world. Even if the bone dragon aura appears near the Blood Tower, it does not prove that certainty at all. It's the Crosno end.

The main reason is that according to Froslai's understanding of Crosno, although the other person is a crazy person, he is not stupid.

Even if he wanted to attack Crowley, there was no need for him to use the Infernal Bone Dragon, and he wouldn't leave traces stupidly for anyone to notice.

On the same spot, Froslai's eyes flickered.

Now, he is only a short time away from completely integrating the Heart of the World, but facing the invasion of the abyss demons, he also feels very troublesome.

Especially in the current situation, there are betrayers in the Wizards' Alliance, and Froslai maintains a distrust of anyone.

Except...Christina.

On the back of the disaster beast, Froslai slowly raised his arm, and with the release of the phantom crow's magic power, names appeared in the air, including Christina, Gustav, Crosno, and the last one, Kai. Saleen.

"First, Christina can be removed."

Frossel waved his hand, and Christina's name disappeared.

For Froslai, Christina has a special status. She is a trusted partner when he was still an apprentice. Coupled with the identity of the other party, it is almost impossible to betray him.

"In this case, only Gustav, Catherine, and Crosno are left!"

Froslai looked at the three names in front of him.

Among them, Crosno is undoubtedly the most suspected betrayer. Not only is he the master of the Purgatory Bone Dragon, but he is also the most persistent in promoting himself to the fourth level wizard.

Froslai frowned slightly.

Although all clues indicate that the betrayer is most likely Krosno, Froslai feels vaguely that something is wrong in his heart. This feeling is not based on any basis, but comes completely from the heart, just like a wizard's premonition. .

Then Froslay shook his head.

"In this case, let's arrange Crosno alone for the time being."
