Beasts start from stone

The sun was preparing to head west, making Xu Qingge's body warm.

She looked at the backs of her two companions and felt confident about the future.

"Oh."

"Little miss, I don't know plants."

???

Xu Qingge glanced at Jennifer in surprise. As a store owner, he didn't know magic grass?

No, isn't his storage room full of magic weeds?
Besides, he was Merlin's friend. Is it possible that Merlin didn't tell him anything about Druidry?

Jennifer was a little embarrassed. In fact, the relationship between him and Merlin was just chatting with each other at best.

The great druid could talk about whatever he wanted. I just thought it was interesting to chat with him, so I didn't take the initiative to mention my identity.

It was only today that he learned that Merlin was also the Archdruid of the Druid Society.

What's more, in Jennifer's opinion, Merlin and the Queen were quite at odds with each other.

It's no wonder, after all, King Arthur's death came from a wrong prophecy made by Queen Morgan.

If she hadn't mistakenly predicted the king's death and created Mordred with her own hands, the king would still be alive now.

No matter how well Morgan Le Fay, who inherited the palace, ruled the country of Boi, the country would never be able to return to its most prosperous period.

Even the broken stone sword stood alone in a corner of the royal capital.

The Eternal King has passed away, the owner of the Amyrlin Seat has changed, and no life can hold the handle of the sword anymore.

Could it be that Merlin allowed himself to be imprisoned in the tower by his apprentice because he knew that he could not wait for the king's return?
"Oh"

"Actually, the main reason is that I have the body of a dragon and will not die if I eat any magic grass with any properties, so I can enjoy the feeling of energy exploding in my mouth."

(It’s like eating and throwing cannons. Don’t try it.)
Jennifer felt quite uncomfortable. The first thing she did on the trip was to ask the young lady to help her, so why did she have the nerve to eat and drink?

"It's okay Jennifer, think about it, if we form a team, the points you need to eat a kind of magic grass will be doubled."

"Normally speaking, for you and I to advance alone, we need five points plus five points, which equals ten points."

"But I can't eat magic grass, so to be on the safe side I have to find at least four magic grasses."

"If the two of us form a team, the required points will need to be doubled to twenty points."

"But you can eat magic grass, so you only need to find four magic grasses."

"And this way, both of us can pass the test."

"Merlin must have had his thoughts in mind when he made the rules like this. You know him very well, don't you?"

Looking at Xu Qingge's expectant eyes, Jennifer didn't know who to talk to about the bitterness in her heart, so he smiled calmly.

The Merlin he knew probably made this kind of rule just for fun.

That romantic guy is different from the one in the legend, different from the one in the classics, and even different from the one in the unofficial history.

But what those royal knights said about Merlin must be the truth.

Merlin and the royal knights who are not with the Eternal King must be very lonely.

"Let's leave quickly. I have a hunch that the magic grass in this forest is limited."

Xu Qingge gradually became uneasy as he saw the monsters around him taking action one by one.

Looking at the magic grass here, it seems that they have already missed the best picking period and are almost over-ripe to go to seed. Since Queen Morgan has the power of prophecy, it is impossible for Knight to also have it.

If he predicts the number of monsters and then arranges when to plant the seeds.

It would be terrible if the Queen's magic was ineffective against her because the magic of Boi was ineffective against foreigners.

However, it would be more scientific to have a limit on the number of students accepted by the Druid Society at a time.

But no matter what, you really need to hurry up now. This forest is not very big, it is about the same as a standard football field.

(360 feet long and 246 feet wide.)
This forest should be specially reserved for the Druid Society. They didn't just find a place, but this place is their holy land.

Xu Qingge felt a little uneasy in her heart, so she pulled Jennifer up and ran quickly.

The feeling of wind filling my lungs is very uncomfortable. This place has not been taken care of. There are green grass emerging from the cracks in the soil, branches falling between the roots, red umbrellas and green umbrellas with white poles.

The running monsters, the smell of earth and vegetation in the air, what a fantastic scene.

"Purple-leaf taro? Jennifer, go dig this, be careful not to break the root."

"You're so lucky. This is a poison-type magic grass. You happen to be poison-type, so you got it directly with five points!"

Xu Qingge pointed to the ground. This was a plant with heart-shaped purple leaves. It gets its name because of the pointed tail of the leaves.

A quarter of the score was completed at once, which ignited Xu Qingge's confidence and continued to look for the next magic grass.

After she left, a horizontal pupil poked its head out of the darkness. It was a fire-horned goat. There was a basket hanging on its back, and there was already a blade of grass in it.

It looked at Xu Qingge's disappearing figure, bit off a purple leaf, and put it in the basket.

"What~"

"In this test, the magic grasses are specially planted together. Wouldn't it be possible to follow other monsters and pick up the leaks?"

"That Merlin is like that. It's been 1000 years and he still can't get over the death of the king. Does such a monster deserve to be called a wise man?"

"But why is my mouth numb? The taste of this plant is so weird."

People have human ways, and animals have their own ways.

Although Xu Qingge's soles left no traces on the hard ground, the holes left by Jennifer's claws were too glaring.

"Bah."

"The little monkey and the free-range chicken are the only pair here who dare to form a team. As long as I follow them closely and add the half point in my basket, I will be the winner."

"That stupid deer actually said that anyone who passes the test can pass. Does he think I am a three-year-old child?"

"The more points here, even if it doesn't affect the subsequent tests, it will definitely affect the time to become Bard."

There was no trace of emotion in the fire-horned goat's sideways eyes.

"What~"

"Since half the points will be deducted for duplicate magic plants, then I will be a good person and destroy the other magic plants. This will save me the time of searching."

"Doing good deeds without leaving a name is worthy of me."

The Fire-Horned Goat stood far away. Even if the magic grass was destroyed, it would emit energy. In its eyes, this sharp-tailed taro tree had no light and was completely unknown to it.

Its horns burst into flames, falling onto the black blades of grass.

The blades of grass were ignited by the fire and burned directly.
