[Sword Three] Lord wants to cut the cloud dress

After confirming that the three of them successfully left behind all the deep forest banshees that had been uprooted and those who had not yet had time to rise from the ground, Li Zheng finally let go of his heavy courage.He breathed a sigh of relief, his legs limp subconsciously and sat on the palm of the soil, looking at the two people in front of him with lingering fear.

Bismarck was still holding a radiant staff, maintaining the spell to dispel the fog.The profession of a mage has extremely high requirements for mental power, and it also has extremely strict requirements for mental concentration, especially when casting some spells with a long duration.Therefore, Li Zheng didn't dare to disturb him, so he had to glance at him secretly, seeing that the countdown displayed on his status bar did have a lot of time, so he turned his head and looked at Andrea.

"It's only 30 seconds." In comparison, Andrea's "Earth Palm" is much inferior.It can only last for 2 minutes at full capacity.At this time, Li Zheng can already see through the countdown in her status bar that the duration of the soil palm will soon come to an end.

I don't know if Andrea heard Li Zheng's quiet words, the nun swordsman's beautiful eyes slanted and looked at Li Zheng thoughtfully.

Li Zheng pretended not to notice Andrea's gaze, he looked down from above the soil palm, and looked at the large jungle under the huge palm.

Under the effect of Bismarck's spell, the forest that was originally covered by fog took off the veil that covered him, which allowed Li Zheng to have a panoramic view of the beauty of the forest at this time.A wide variety of flowers, plants and trees grow in a patchwork manner in their respective positions, and the sunlight slantly shines on the leaves, making the emerald green leaves shine with a layer of brilliance that belongs to life.When the wind blows, Li Zheng can even smell a natural fresh smell lingering on the tip of his nose.

It's a pity that such a beautiful scenery is covered by this weird fog.Li Zheng suddenly felt a trace of regret in his heart.

But what made him feel a little strange was that they had walked in such a big forest for such a long time, but they didn't see a single animal.Not to mention dangerous lions and tigers, there is no sign of gentle rabbits or sika deer.To be more precise, there is not even a single bird in this huge forest.

Strange to say, ever since entering the forest, Li Zheng always felt that there was something missing in the forest.Only now did he realize that he had never heard birdsong in this forest at all!Not even the forest that had not been covered in mist before had heard it.

This is a very strange thing, originally Li Zheng was looking forward to seeing some wild animals in this forest.After all, as a 21st century person who grew up in a metropolis, he had never seen these creatures that only belonged to the forest.

He clearly remembered that his master Anna would bring him some wild game when going in and out of the forest, which made him think that there were wild animals everywhere in the forest.But I didn't expect that I went into and out of the forest twice without seeing a single bird.

Could it be because of his poor character?

Or was it because there was something extremely scary in the forest that caused all the animals to hide instinctively?

When the 30 seconds were approaching, Andrea's sword energy reached its limit.She manipulated the soil palm to stop on a relatively wide ground, and the slowly descending soil palm slanted against the ground as it approached the land, making it easy for the three of them to land.And just when they landed, the soil palm finally couldn't maintain its shape and completely dissipated, turning into dust and scattered around.

"Thank you." Li Zheng nodded to Andrea, then glanced at Bismarck's blood-blue state, and said to the blond man who was still maintaining the spell: "You should also withdraw the spell. Use less mental power. When the time comes Not much will be good."

Bismarck closed his eyes, and the lighted staff in his hand also dimmed.The moment he opened his eyes again, the mist swarmed up like an anxious man who hadn't seen a woman in hundreds of years, and surrounded the three of them.

"Let's rest in place for a while." Seeing this, Li Zheng suggested.The three of them consumed a lot in the battle with the zombies just now.And this forest is full of crises right now, and it is not optimistic.After that, they don't know what unknown dangers are waiting for them, so the best way is to try to keep the three of them in a relatively good fighting state.

Apparently, Bismarck and Andrea also agreed with Li Zheng's opinion, so the three of them sat on the ground, rested and recovered their strength.

That is, when they were quiet for a long time, Bismarck suddenly raised his head and looked in Li Zheng's direction, and asked, "You said that those zombies used wheel warfare?"

Li Zheng, who was meditating and adjusting his breath, opened his eyes and nodded: "Yeah, what's wrong?"

"The first time we saw those zombies," Bismarck said, frowning slightly: "I remember you mentioned something called ants..."

"Ants cross the river." Li Zheng said, "Sacrifice tactics."

Bismarck nodded and continued: "And those forest banshees were obviously lurking before. If they were lurking for some purpose."

"For example, you want to reap the benefits of fishing when we are tired of dealing with zombies?" Li Zheng understood what Bismarck meant: "Are you trying to say that they are probably premeditated? They are intelligent?"

"The benefit of the fisherman? What is that?" Bismarck found that sometimes he could not understand Li Zheng's words, but these words did not affect the meaning Li Zheng wanted to express.After confirming what Li Zheng thought, he added: "There is another possibility."

"What?" Li Zheng scratched his head, quite puzzled.

"What if these...zombies and forest banshees can be controlled? What if they all obey one person?" Bismarck quickly put forward his hypothesis, and then asked Li Zheng when he showed a questioning expression : "Remember what I said about feeling a strong spiritual impact when entering the forest?"

Li Zheng nodded, remembering that Bismarck did mention this to him before.And later, he also put forward the hypothesis that the person imposed a part of the seal on the forest: "You mean, it is very likely that there are so many zombies and forest banshees because of the order of that person... . Tactics?"

Andrea, who had been silent all the time, seemed to understand the ins and outs from the conversation between the two. She pondered for a moment, and quickly raised her own question: "Your Majesty Bismarck, with all due respect, you can easily manipulate a large number of zombies and forest girls. The demon must have a powerful power above the three of us. Such power is rare in the entire history of the Twin Continent. Therefore, it is hard to believe that someone can do this today."

She paused, and continued: "Take a step back, if someone really has this strength, then who is he? Why have we never known that there is such a mysterious and powerful figure? He concealed his true strength What is the purpose?"

After being told by Andrea, Li Zheng also came back to his senses.Controlling zombies and forest banshees sounds simple, but it is obviously not an easy task.Bismarck seemed to realize this too, and said nothing.

As Andrea proposed, even Hesberg, who is very famous in the Southern Continent and is a wood mage, can't do such a thing.

However, one thing is almost certain.

——No matter what or who is hiding behind the zombie and the forest banshee, it is very likely that the comer is not good.

"Could it be related to the dark mage?" Li Zheng glanced at Bismarck, thinking of the collective disappearance of Hesberg and other swordsmanship masters, he couldn't help guessing softly.

If there is any connection between the two, or rather, if the two are written by the same person, things will become tricky.After all, facing such a powerful opponent, Li Zheng didn't think the three of them would have any chance of winning.

Bismarck seemed to sense what he was thinking, and shook his head calmly.This is obviously to keep myself from revealing too much about the secret meeting in front of Andrea for the time being.Although I don't know why Bismarck is reluctant to tell Andrea for the time being, but after all, it concerns his master, and Li Zheng doesn't want to be a talkative person.

After a while, the three of them decided to start again after letting go of these messy and inconclusive thoughts.This time, however, before they had gone far, they saw a hole.

This hole is a bit abrupt in this forest.It was born on a small hillside.The hillside is not high, but the slope is extremely flat, as if someone shoveled it up and flattened it.Therefore, rather than saying that this hillside is a naturally formed hillside, it is more like a man-made one.The surface of the mound is covered by forest vegetation, which is not so conspicuous at first glance.If it wasn't for Li Zheng's intention to search for it, he might have missed it.

Li Zheng looked in from the outside of the cave, the cave was pitch black, he couldn't see anything, and naturally he couldn't see the end.

"Come in?" He squinted, turned his head to look behind him, and asked his two companions for their opinions.

Behind him, Bismarck's apparent acquiescence and Andrea's nod made him look back into the hole.This time, he was just about to call out to test the depth of the hole when he was interrupted by Bismarck who stepped forward.

"Hush—" On the other side, Andrea also came up and pointed to the mud at the entrance of the cave.

Li Zhengpo was a little confused about what she meant, so he followed her fingers and looked over.I saw that the place Andrea pointed at was clean and there were no traces, no footprints, bloodstains, or any traces that could attract others' attention.

So he was even more surprised why Andrea asked him to look there, but he didn't dare to ask loudly, so he could only cover his lips with his hand, and lowered his voice: "What's wrong?"

"Look carefully."

Li Zheng leaned forward, only to find that the place was not as clean as he had seen at first glance.If you look closely, you can see a few very shallow footprints at the entrance of the cave.You can't notice it unless you look carefully.

"Obviously, he deliberately wanted to erase his traces." Andrea said: "But it was not so thorough in the panic."

Without saying a word, Bismarck burrowed into the dark cave.And it was at this moment that Li Zheng caught a glimpse of his hand that was not holding the staff tightly clenched into a fist, and he could even clearly see the protruding bones and joints on the back of his hand due to excessive force.

"I usually look at all kinds of noble and glamorous looks," Li Zheng murmured softly, thinking of Bismarck's mood at the moment, "I'm obviously still in a panic."
