Wizard: Seeker of Infinite Planes

Chapter 7 The Poison Ivy Tree

"You newcomers, remember to keep your round badge away, otherwise no one will clean it up for you if you die in the botanical garden."

The admonition from the steward of the botanical garden was faintly heard in his ear, and Taylor turned his head to look at the smaller and smaller entrance of the botanical garden, then turned his head and continued along a path to the place where the poison ivy tree was.

On both sides of this path, it has been shrouded in thick white smoke, Taylor can only vaguely see some motionless tentacles flying around in the sky, like fist-sized mysterious creatures, and some tree roots And vines trying to creep into the path.

It's just that when these tree roots and vines were about to touch the boulders on the side of the path, they quickly retracted like an electric shock, and there was a faint wailing sound.

Taylor couldn't help squatting down to study it carefully, and found that the two rows of boulders next to the path were engraved with tiny witchcraft runes, and he could only vaguely distinguish the meaning of burns from the witchcraft runes inside. .

Sure enough, in the world of wizards, there are traces of knowledge and witchcraft runes everywhere.

Whoosh...

While Taylor was squatting on the ground studying the countless runes engraved on the stone, a big dog-headed bird suddenly came from behind him and rushed towards Taylor. food cravings.

Pfft!
Just when the big dog-headed bird was about to cross the long stone belt composed of witchcraft runes, its eyes trembled, and it fell to the ground as if it had lost the sense of control of its body. It kicked its legs weakly, and then lost its spirit.

With his back to the big dog-headed bird, Taylor dispersed the fireball in his palm, and turned his head to look at the strange creature that died suddenly.

"Sure enough, as the passage of the botanical garden, how can these non-human monsters be allowed to step on it?"

Although the big dog-headed bird was only a few steps away from Taylor, Taylor did not try to drag the body of the big dog-headed bird back. Who knows if the big dog-headed bird is lying to him, or there are other monsters secretly coveted.

After looking at it twice, Taylor turned and left, and he still had to continue his mission.

Not long after Taylor left, a thick root suddenly spread from the ground below the dog-headed bird's body, dragging the body into the ground to turn it into nutrients.

If Taylor could see this scene now, he might just sigh, even in the botanical garden of the White Wizard, there are crises everywhere.

According to the guidance given by the steward of the botanical garden, Taylor quickly followed the path to a big tree full of spikes and constantly dancing vines, like tentacles.

Looking at the transparent liquid dripping from the thorns, Taylor inexplicably wanted to study these venoms to see how toxic these transparent liquids are, how strong they are, how to recombine them, and how to maximize the toxicity of the venom .

But now it is better to extract the juice and submit the task.

Taylor took out two long-tube instruments from the bag on his waist. A bottle was attached to each of the instruments. There are three scales on the bottle. When one scale is reached, one serving of juice is obtained. The bottle is full.

If this task can be successfully completed, four portions of juice can be collected through cooperation, which can be exchanged for 32 points.

However, depending on the situation, it is estimated that it will not be completed satisfactorily.

When Taylor took out these two instruments, there were poisonous thorns in front of him, and the weird tree wrapped in vines seemed to come alive. It kept dancing its vines and tried to attack Taylor. .

But considering the path under Taylor's feet, the vines just kept probing, and even began to retract slowly, trying to show their honest posture to seduce.

Taylor watched one of the vines helplessly, and suddenly struck at a seemingly ordinary tree next to him, leaving a deep whip mark on the tree. He felt that once it hit him, It is estimated that it will be disabled if it is not dead.

Looking at the round stone engraved with witchcraft runes under his feet, and at the round badge in his hand, Taylor hesitated.

He had seen with his own eyes how powerful the round stone engraved with countless runes was, but Taylor didn't have much confidence in the badge he was holding now.

The white wizard will never take human life lightly, so he will send his apprentice to die on purpose.

With this in mind, Taylor first held his round badge in one hand, and slowly stretched out beyond the sheltered range of the stone path.

When Taylor's right hand left the range, the vine immediately seemed to come alive, and sharp spikes suddenly grew out of the vine, stabbing towards Taylor's right hand.

Taylor turned his wrist and showed his round badge, the vines covered with sharp thorns suddenly stopped, as if in fear, trembling slightly, after a moment of hesitation, the vines slowly retracted, but still hovered Around Taylor's right hand.

"Sure enough."

After he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, Taylor's left hand condensed a ball of fire. Although his current magic power could not last long for this ball of fire, it was still a deterrent to the poison ivy tree in front of him.

He took a step forward, holding a round badge in one hand, and a small fireball in the other. Sure enough, after seeing the heat emitted by the round fireball, the vines were a little further away from Taylor, but they were still like poisonous snakes. Just as tightly around Taylor.

As long as the round badge in his hand is released, even if he endures the burn of the fireball, the poison ivy tree will strangle Taylor, turning his blood and magic power into his own rations.

Continuing to step forward, Taylor found that there were several special holes in the root of the univine tree. At first glance, these holes matched the long tube instrument he was hanging on his waist.

Now that he had found the place where the sap was drawn, Taylor's left hand scattered the fireball. When the fireball dispersed, the surrounding vines were two points closer to him. Due to the deterrence of the circular badge, the poison ivy tree still did not dare to touch it directly. Attack Taylor holding the badge.

Taylor poured the round badge into his left hand, turned it around himself, pushed back the vines with poisonous thorns for a distance, and immediately took out the long tube instrument hanging on his waist with his right hand, and put the long The ends of the tubes are inserted into special holes.

The instrument immediately began to function, and drop after drop of dark green liquid was introduced into the container below through the long tube.

But the poison ivy tree was showing extreme pain at this time, a pain visible to the naked eye, the whole tree began to tremble, and those vines kept flying wildly, trying to kill Taylor again and again, but there was still no way approach him.

Taylor's heart was in his throat, and he could only tightly hold the round badge in his hand, not daring to relax for a moment.

Drops of cold sweat condensed on his forehead. Less than 20 centimeters away from him, those vines seemed to be crazy, and the spikes attached to the vines flashed past his eyes time and time again.

I don't know how long it has passed, and the tubes connected to the two instruments stopped dripping. Looking at the dark green liquid inside, Taylor estimated that there are at most two servings.

Stretching out his hand to take the instrument back and holding it in his hand, Taylor held up the round badge and slowly retreated step by step.

When his feet stepped on the path he came on again, Taylor felt his legs go limp, and he almost sat down.

This was the first time he faced such a dangerous scene. Although he knew that the poison ivy tree would not attack him, he was indeed very nervous, especially when the poisonous thorns were floating back and forth in front of his face.
