  Chapter 196 Exploded a whole body of slime

   Knight guards, entourage, assistants, Duke took the airship this time, and like other arcanists, he brought the whole team to serve himself.

  Levin was also brought over by him, and the airship would land in Snakehead Town, which happened to let Levin go to Xiaohewan Farm to play.

  He himself plans to live in a villa on the farm.

   There are also the spiritual plants he left behind, a 1-ring spiritual plant-monkey earrings, and a batch of 0-ring spiritual plants.

  Of course, if the Black Snake Family kindly invites him to live in the Black Snake Manor, then he will not refuse, after all, there is more aura there.

   "It's here." Assistant Vikas held a red wine glass, feeling a little revisited, "A new adventure is about to start."

   This time, there was not only one airship from the Loop of Penrose Mage Tower, but five airships came to Cuihai Valley for investigation.

  The Black Snake Clan held a grand banquet in the manor, inviting all arcanists to go.

  When the banquet was over, the arcane masters left one after another. Instead of choosing to live in the Black Snake Manor, they found their own lodgings outside.

   Only Duke stayed and invited Mentor Penrose and others to live in the Black Snake Manor.

   "The opening of the war in Cuihai Valley made my Black Snake family feel awkward in Heijiaohe. Many arcane masters think that our cooperation with Bernoulli's Master Tower is an act of betrayal." Muhans Black Snake said with resentment when chatting with Duke.

  Duke didn't answer.

  Muhans continued: "Actually, this is a backlash. The information about the spiritual spring of Cuihai Valley leaked. No one in this city can stand up and launch a pioneering war. Bernoulli's Mage Tower took the lead. Instead, we blamed it on us."

   "It's only for a while. When the Bernoulli family integrates into Heijiaohe, everything will return to the past." Duke comforted.

   "Perhaps, but thanks to your persuasion, His Excellency Penrose would never have stayed at the Black Snake Manor, let alone that heavenly girl from the Rage Family."

   "Do my best." Duke laughed.

  Being born in Sheshou Town restricted the relationship between Duke and the Black Snake family, and it was too late to cut it off, and there was no need to cut it off.

   Being strong is the last word.

   "By the way, Uncle Muhansi, what happened to Cuihai Valley that caused the United Tower to personally call the Arcane Master to investigate?"

   "Drink a cup of tea first to relieve the hangover, and I will explain it to you in detail."

  As the patriarch of the Black Snake Clan, Muhans is naturally aware of the recent changes in Cuihai Valley, so he immediately told Duke in detail.

   "In the beginning, everyone withdrew from the Cuihai Valley, and when the mercenaries left and returned, they found that the No. 3 well area was a bit different. The original green camp suddenly became colorful."

  Paused, Muhans frowned and said: "It's lichen, a kind of lichen with an evil aura that can grow sharp teeth. Once you step on this kind of lichen by mistake, your feet will be broken, or your legs will be broken. Many mercenaries are abolished because of this."

  Colorful fang lichens, spreading from the No. 3 well area camp, have spread to most areas of Cuihai Valley.

   It is hard to guard against.

   "In addition to lichen, there are more evil things appearing. Although these things are not very strong, they are very unappetizing. I have seen some mercenaries infected with evil breath. The wounds are rotten and smelly, and there are some hyphae inside."

  Muhans said with a look of disgust: "It's disgusting, the effect of arcane treatment is not good, and physical means must be used to disinfect it."

   "So, it's a fungal-like infection?" Duke asked.

   "The high priest looked at it and didn't think it was a simple fungus. It might be a pollutant of some kind of evil thing."

   "Evil thing..." Duke narrowed his eyes.

  He believes that this kind of fang lichen is definitely related to the forbidden area sealed under the No. 3 well area, and it is very likely that it is caused by the molting of an ancient evil thing that polluted the outside world.

  However, a gag order has been signed on the matter of the forbidden area, so Duke can't say it clearly.

  I can only continue to listen to Muhans' description of all kinds of weird things that appeared in the forest, and the disgusting experiences that the mercenaries encountered.

   is chatting.

  Penrose's entourage came over and called for someone, asking Duke to gather in the past.

   "Go, be careful after entering the forest, and don't enter rashly." Muhans urged.

   "I know."

  Duke rushed to assemble, and when everyone was assembled, Penrose led the team directly to the third safe passage leading to Cuihai Valley.

  Levin went to the farm, Mu Lali stayed in the Black Snake Manor, and the entourage was also left on the farm.

  Duke only took Vivian and other six great knights to guard him, and he was not at all shabby compared to other arcanists.

certainly.

   Can't be compared with Kylia Raging Wave, besides five 1-ring great knights, there are also 2 2-ring Eudemons knights.

   This is the "guardian knight" selected by the great nobles for their potential descendants, so as to protect the descendants so that they can step into the spiritual mysteries more securely.

   "It's really extravagant, 2-ring Phantom Beast Knights as guards..." Duke looked at Kiria not far away, feeling in his heart, "However, it can be seen that knights are really in decline. 2-ring Phantom Beast Knights can only be guards. It is said that more experienced nobles will even choose 3-ring high-ranking Phantom Beast Knights as guard knights."

   Fortunately, the dragon knight is just a legend, otherwise, the real arcanist might choose the dragon knight as the guard knight of his descendants.

   "This era is the era of spiritual arcana, the era of arcane masters."

   Concentrating on his thoughts, Duke closely followed the team. Such a mixed team of arcane mages and knights felt full of security.

   Safe passage No. 3 has been repaired by mercenaries.

  On the wide weed road, within a few hundred meters, except for a few weed leaves, there is nothing taller than the calf.

  Among the team, there is also a black beetle car that follows as a mobile laboratory.

  Occasionally, black beetle vehicles can be seen on the road, pulling huge corpses of spirit beasts, or tightly packed spirit plants, and other strange things.

   "Just stop here and start the research from here." Mentor Penrose announced the start of the research when the team drove to the foot of the mountain.

  The opposite of the mountains in front is Cuihai Valley.

  This can only be regarded as the periphery of Cuihai Valley, and the mysterious changes of Cuihai Valley have extended to this area, and are expanding outward every day.

  Duke had accumulated a lot of jungle experience when he was dormant in the countryside before, so he quickly led his **** knights into the jungle next to the safe passage.

  Xiaoyi hangs up the phone and reads "Rainfall Breathing Method", controlling everything within a radius of 500 meters.

   Immediately.

  The Dou Qi holographic screen in the field of vision outlines a map.

  On the map, gray represents normal areas, and color represents abnormal areas. For example, red represents spiritual beasts, and green represents spiritual plants.

   But at this time on the map, there is a large area of ​​black.

   "Master, the breathing resonance in these areas is abnormal, and there is a special breath suppressing the natural power emitted by the plants."

   One of them is black, just under Duke's feet.

  He squatted down and saw a layer of light yellow and light pink mixed fungal lichen growing on the ground, which was completely different from the surrounding ground.

   It is a bit like the slime mold that is often used in experiments.

   "The fang lichen mentioned by Muhans is this kind of thing?" Duke put on gloves, squatted down, thought for a while and activated the battle armor.

  But at this moment, the battle qi armor did not spread all over the body, but concentrated on the hands and arms.

   Then he stabbed the fang lichen with a dagger. The next moment, the fang lichen seemed to come alive, and quickly expanded a mouth full of fangs from the stabbed position, biting Duke's hand.

  Duke opened his mouth against the fangs and punched him down.

  The fighting spirit armor put on a fist, and directly smashed the big mouth of Fang Lichen into a big hole the size of a head: "Disgusting thing."

   Juice splashes everywhere.

   They were all blocked by Duke's vindictive armor.

   "My lord, what is this? It's still a living thing?" The female great knight Teasi followed Duke, frowning and asked, "I have never seen such a strange thing like a moss when I ventured into the forest before."

   "Who knows, go and get the collection test tube for me." Duke ordered.

  The great knights acted as his research assistants, and quickly brought them to collect the test tubes. Duke used tweezers to stuff a little bit of the fang lichen that had been smashed by himself on the ground, and then screwed on the cap of the test tube, and put it into a package carried by a spirit horse.

   Soon he was nearby and found fang lichens of various colors. A small piece of fang lichen could not grow fangs and mouths. Only large pieces of fangs lichens could grow fangs and mouths.

  He collected a little sample of all kinds of fang lichen.

   "These things make my heart fire." The great knight Damon brandished the knight sword, slashing at the fang lichen on the ground.

   Fighting Qi and swords are shining everywhere, and lichen mucus is flying around.

   "Damon, don't do it, the mucus is too disgusting to get on your body." Another great knight, Affleck, frowned and scolded.

  Vivienne said in a solemn voice: "All keep up, protect your lord!"

   "Got it, Captain." Damon took back the knight sword and muttered, "The smell of these fang lichens makes me feel uncomfortable."

   "I can feel that the breath it emits has an evil smell." Zoe, the female great knight, sniffed her nose. "It's like a spirit beast that has been dead for more than ten days. The corpse has already rotted. If you smell it too much, you will feel uncomfortable."

  The last big knight, Matt, held the knight sword and looked around. He didn't participate in the discussion.

  Three female Grand Knights, Vivienne, Teassy, ​​and Zoe; three male Grand Knights, Damon, Affleck, and Matt.

   These are Duke's six guard knights.

  He ignored the discussion of the great knights, and simply greeted: "All keep up, there are new things to collect ahead."

   Then quickly walked forward.

  Matt and Damon rushed to the front of Duke quickly, using the knight's sword as a machete to cut off thorns and weeds to open a path for him.

  Going straight forward for two hundred meters, Duke reached the small black dot displayed on the holographic screen of Dou Qi.

  Just now, through breath resonance, Xiaoyi detected a special area ahead. The breath fluctuation was similar to Fang Lichen, but slightly different, so he set it as a beating black dot.

at this time.

  The little black spot has been exposed in Duke's eyes.

  It is a huge and weird flower, which grows on the trunk of a dead tree. It has no leaves, but only a slime mold-like stem similar to the fang lichen, and the roots are deeply rooted on the trunk.

   "This flower is really big!" Damon choked out an adjective, "It also stinks."

   "It's very similar to konjac flowers. Some konjac flowers smell bad, but this one should be polluted by fang lichen." Duke stimulated this weird konjac flower with a stick, and the next moment the konjac flower exploded with a bang.

  The arcane shield is instant, blocking in front of Duke, taking over most of the mucus produced by the explosion.

   Only a small amount splashed onto the armors of Damon and Matt, the two great knights. The strong stench made them vomit on the spot.

   Vivienne and other big knights around were not splashed, but the stench still made them want to vomit.

  Duke, who was on the front line, didn't respond at all.

  Because Xiaoyi had run the "Battle Qi Armor" as soon as it exploded, covering his whole body, especially his face.

  The vindictiveness completely isolates the smell.

   "Everyone, be careful and cover your mouth and nose as much as possible. These weird plants may be infectious. But if you go back and run your battle qi a few more times, and there are no obvious wounds on your body, basically nothing will happen."

  The mercenaries gathered in Cuihai Valley have already explored these weird things, and they are not fatal yet.

   At most, the wound will fester and become infected, requiring flesh cutting and amputation.

  Because the explosion was so thorough that even dead trees were blown off, and the trunk was blown into pieces, Duke could only scrape a little mucus from the ground as a sample.

   Then move deeper into the forest.

  In the battle qi holographic screen, there were a few more small black spots in front that Xiaoyi couldn't identify, waiting for him to personally investigate and sample.

   "My lord, what's the use of studying these things, I feel that they have no effect other than nausea." Tejassi watched Duke rushing towards a new strange plant, and couldn't help asking his own doubts, "They have nothing to do with spirit beasts and spirit plants."

  Duke replied indifferently as he walked: "Any new thing has its inherent value, it depends on whether you can discover it."

   Go closer.

  It was another big tree with withered and yellow leaves, and a small mutated konjac flower grew on the trunk. Duke immediately approached it cautiously.

   With a simple touch, the small mutated konjac flower did not burst open.

  The reason why the mutated konjac flower exploded was probably a sign of maturity, and the explosion was used to spread seeds or spores.

   "Give me the oversized collection tube."

   "My lord, here we come."

  Duke directly dug the whole mutated konjac flower from the trunk of the big tree, and stuffed it together with the decayed wood around it into an oversized collection test tube.

  At this moment, there was a sudden movement in the nearby bushes.

  Vivienne immediately took the big knights to search the bushes, and returned a while later with a knight's lance carrying a dying little beast.

   "My lord, it's a muntjac." Vivienne said, "It seems to be infected by these fang lichen-like things, lying in the bushes and convulsing. It's not dead, but it's almost there."

  Duke crouched down and examined the infected muntjac.

  There is a huge cut wound on the back leg of the muntjac, as if injured by a mercenary, and then infected by something like fang lichen.

  The hind legs are already covered with fang lichens of different colors, like a large group of wriggling slime mold.

  His eyes were red, his hair fell off, and his skin was rotten to varying degrees.

  Bursts of stench came out.

   "It's disgusting!" Damon wanted to vomit again.

  Duke frowned, this infected muntjac reminded him of something—a zombie, a zombie muntjac infected by fungus.

   "Give it a good time." Duke has no interest in research.

  He is not a life scholar. He likes to study these special life forms the most. This time he came to investigate with Penrose, more to feel the atmosphere.

   At the same time, it is also to see if you can find new spiritual materials, improve the effect of card making, or reduce the cost of card making.

  Damon heard the words, and beheaded the zombie deer with a sword.

  At this time, a large mouth with fangs suddenly grew on the hind legs of the zombie muntjac, and it bit Damon. Seeing this, Damon stomped directly on the mouth of the fangs with the feet of the spirit gold iron boots.

  Pfft!

  The thick juice splashed all over, and the muntjac's hind legs were smashed into meat paste.

   "Damon, you are disgusting." Zoe and Tejas scolded together.

  Vivienne also looked at Damon speechlessly: "Why bother to spoil the fun."

   "Sorry, I owe you my feet." Damon raised his hand to apologize, then stomped his feet vigorously, shaking off the thick juice splashed on his legs.

  Duke, who was walking forward, suddenly paused.

  Xiaoyi is giving him feedback: "Master, in the area 300 meters ahead, I found a special breath, which greatly interferes with breathing resonance."

  At the same time, a purple light spot lit up, flickering crazily on the vindictive holographic screen.

   This purple light spot is not standing still, but moving fast, and getting closer and closer to Duke's position.

   "Be careful, something is approaching!" Duke scolded.

   Vivienne immediately ordered: "Assemble, protect your lord!"

  The big knights changed their laziness before, maintained a high level of alert, slowly approached Duke, and protected Duke in the center.

  Duke himself maintained a high level of vigilance, and the Sand Eagle was already in his hands.

   After a while, the purple light spot on the dou qi holographic screen moved to the vicinity of Duke. At this time, a monster like a tiger pounced quietly in the front area.

  The big knights stepped forward quickly and blocked the tiger monster with their shields.

   BANG BOOM!

  The tiger monster was hit by the shield and rolled over on the ground.

  Duke finally saw what it was. It looked like a tiger but not a tiger. It only had the general outline of a tiger, but actually it looked like a huge bug squeezed out of the tiger's body. It was a weird combination.

  There is no fur, only the kind of skin similar to caterpillars. Although the colors are colorful, they do not have the beauty of splendor, only deformities and ugliness.

   And it has a strong pungent smell.

   It's not a pungent smell, but a psychological pungent feeling that makes Duke Linghai, Blood Sea, and Qi Sea feel strongly uncomfortable.

   "Evil breath..." Duke held the Sand Eagle and stood there silently examining it.

  The big knights have already made three strikes and five cuts, and pressed this ugly tiger-like bug to the ground with shields and spears.

   "My lord, are you going to kill?" Affleck asked.

   "Let me take a look first." Duke walked closer and looked at this weird "tiger bug" carefully. He guessed in his heart that it should be caused by the pollution of the moulting shell of an ancient evil thing. I don't know if the main body is really a tiger.

  Tiger Bug was pressed by the shield and opened his mouth angrily, but he couldn't make any sound, as if his vocal cords were rotten.

  There is only the sound of puffing and puffing.

   Hiss.

  Duke stretched out his hand directly, pulled out one of the tentacles on the tiger insect's head, and then injected spiritual energy to investigate the situation inside.

  I found that psionic energy was obscure and hard to get through, and it couldn't work at all.

   "This is not a spiritual material, it is even a kind of 'extreme spirit body'!" Duke quickly made a judgment in his mind. Spirituality is everywhere, and there is basically no object that cannot be penetrated by spirituality.

   There are very few records of Jue spirit body.

  After research, some arcane masters believe that the Absolute Spirit Body is not a thing of this world, but may be an extraterrestrial object carried by a meteorite.

  Spirituality cannot penetrate, just like a spiritual black hole.

  The tiger bug is not such an absolute spiritual black hole, but it is difficult to penetrate the spirituality. Duke's psychic energy can only pierce on the surface of the tentacles.

  He also tried to pierce the psionic energy from the broken wound, and also penetrated to the superficial surface, but was blocked by an obscure feeling, and it was difficult to penetrate even a little bit.

   "Tie it up and take it back!" Duke ordered immediately.

   "Yes, my lord!" The great knights took out their chains and tied the tiger bug into a ball.

  This tiger bug is not strong, it is equivalent to a 1-ring spirit beast, and it does not know arcane arts, so it can only be tossed in front of the great knights.

  It was very slow when going forward, but it was very fast when returning. It took less than half an hour to walk out of the jungle and return to the No. 3 safe passage.

  The Black Beetle experimental vehicle was still parked on the side of the road.

  The other research arcane masters hadn't come back yet, so Duke directly asked people to put all the collected experimental samples on the black beetle car, and the tiger insect was also dragged over.

   "Ah." Suddenly there was an exclamation in the car.

  Duke discovered that he was not alone, and Kylia Routao was already in the experimental vehicle, and she exclaimed when she saw the tiger bug.

  Her knight guarding the road faithfully stood aside.

   "Are you back too?" Duke asked.

   "Yeah." Kylia said with embarrassment on her face, "I ran into a little situation in the forest, so I came back to clean it up."

  Her clothes have obviously been changed, and her hair is also wet, as if she just took a shower.

  Duke roughly guessed what happened, but he still asked a lot: "What's the situation, isn't your face very good?"

   "Ah, this..." Kylia hesitated for a moment, but overcame her embarrassment, and said, "I met a disgusting flower, which accidentally exploded during research. I was drenched in some mucus, and felt very uncomfortable."

   "I see." Duke did not continue to ask.

   Kylia has just been promoted to an arcane mage, and obviously hasn't had time to build an arcane wonder, so she doesn't have instant arcane defense.

   "Duke, what did you catch?" Kylia quickly changed the subject.

   "I don't know, it's a very strange individual. I'm going to let the instructor take a look and see if the instructor can know what it is." Duke has limited knowledge.

  I read a lot of books, and Xiaoyi’s database has also expanded greatly, but I have nothing to gain from the fang lichen, mutated konjac flower, tiger insects and the like that are related to ancient evils.

   "I don't know what happened to Cuihai Valley. There is such a disgusting species spreading."

   "Who knows."

  Duke simply got into the black beetle car, and the service staff in the car poured him a cup of coffee and sipped it.

   Chatting with Kiriya about everything.

   It doesn't matter what the specific content of the chat is, the main thing is that Kiriya is too eye-catching, and the time spent with the beauty is beautiful every second.

   "Ah, you two are actually lazy." The appearance of Orianna interrupted Duke's leisure time to enjoy the good time.

   "Sister Orianna, you are back." Duke said with a smile, "What do you gain in the forest?"

   "What can be gained, they are all disgusting things, the smell can kill people, alas, this investigation really shouldn't be done." Orianna said with disgust, "You two are smart, come back early to rest, and I will return early tomorrow."

   Kiriya smiled awkwardly.

  Duke asked indifferently: "Have you seen the tiger bug in the cage outside the car? Can you tell what it is?"

   "I'm not interested in watching it, let the tutor or Leadman help with the research." Orianna called the waiter and ordered a cup of green tea for herself.

   Then he leaned comfortably on the seat, enjoying the sunset in the evening, and chatted with Kylia about the gossip of the arcane masters.

  This kind of gossip, even the charming girl of heaven cannot avoid it.

  Duke yawned, got out of the car, squatted in front of the iron cage, and studied the pollutants of tiger worms, an ancient evil that moulted its shell.

   "Is this thing a living body?" He thought of the unfriendly experience in the mine back then.

  At that time, I felt that the mine was like the wriggling intestines and stomach of some kind of organism, my five senses were all disturbed, and I heard the faint roar of monsters.

   "So, if it's really an ancient evil in the Forbidden Land that shed its shell, leaked and infected... the tiger bug is what a tiger looks like after being infected?"

  He pondered silently: "If this is the case, Roroya Snow Eagle was unconscious at the beginning, whether he was also infected with a tiger bug, so he was taken to Runwu City...it should be sliced ​​by those high-level arcanists for research."

   "So this infection, is it a spiritual infection, or an infection aimed at spirituality?"

   "There is a guardian · mystery vine in my spiritual sea. At that time, the feedback from the 3-ring tree king-mystery vine was a special defensive barrier."

   "But when the molting of the ancient evil interfered with me, the Guardian·Mystery Vine didn't respond!"

   "Huh!"

   "Thinking makes my brain hurt."

   Looking for tickets~
