The Record of Unusual Creatures

"There is something in the dream, it ran out of our hearts..."

Morian pinched his chin and repeated these words in confusion. He did not seem to have heard of this knowledge in his opinion. The old knight turned his head and looked at Veronica: "His Royal Highness, this seems It's a bit like a wizard."

"You mean spiritual illusion?" Veronica frowned. "These soldiers seem to have suffered enormous fear before they die, and the commander has signs of madness... It looks like a wizard. Mind illusion, but I haven't heard of any kind of illusion that has such a strong effect, and the scope is still so wide - there are hundreds of veterans who can be stationed at the chaotic boundary, and everyone has received at least one year of willpower Training, their resistance to illusion is very strong."

Hao Ren looked around and didn't express his opinion. In fact, he knows much more than Veronica and Morian. He has seen the most powerful soul power in the universe. The people in the whole city are maddening the storm of the soul. He knows that there are many powerful extraordinary minds in the world that can do things in front of them, such as the whisper of the eldest son and the nightmare of guarding the giants, but these things are difficult to explain clearly with the local indigenous people.

Moreover, he could not determine what the soldiers in the outpost were encountering because he did not see the traces of the eldest son's tentacles activities inside or outside the outpost, nor did he sense the atmosphere of the guardian giant. This may have happened here. A psychic storm, but the initiator did not appear.

After thinking for a while, Hao Ren slammed and asked: "Have you ever been exposed to a chaotic monster that is good at psychic attacks?"

"The existence of chaotic servants can itself interfere with the human mind," Veronica shook her head. "They don't have to master the skills of psychic attacks... Wait, can it be said that chaos breeds a new breed of magic?"

The speculation of His Royal Highness Princess suddenly made the old knight next to him nervous. Although Hao Ren just asked casually, they gave them too far-reaching associations. Morian immediately got up: "We must return to the civilized world as soon as possible. I am afraid that something has happened before I can pass it back."

Veronica nodded. "We walked along the Vitex Road. There are still several outposts on this line, and maybe we can find something."

The Jingde Road is a avenue when the shadow jungle has not been completely corrupted. It was originally a path that the elves in the forest communicated with humans, but as the forest became completely chaotic, this avenue has also been Chaotic swallowing, poisonous plants and activated shrubs grow on the side of the road, and the softened and deformed soil makes the road rough and difficult. For ordinary travelers, there is no living road in this jungle.

But for the knights of the kingdom, the road to Vitex is still a passageway. Although there is a blockade of corruption, the crystal dust embedded in the stone slabs of the Elven Kingdom is still playing a role. The danger of the Vitex Road is still It is a little lower than the surrounding wild forest. At least on this road, the bushes that eat people have not yet reached the point where they can be seen everywhere.

Under the leadership of Veronica, the team quickly found a second outpost located deeper in the forest.

Although I had made the worst plan before, after seeing the corpses in the post, everyone’s heart was inevitably covered with a deeper shadow: the soldiers here have all died, and the way of death The first station was almost exactly the same. The deceased seemed to have experienced a terrible scene. Their faces were distorted and terrible. The body was full of residual wounds. The body had begun to rot, and in addition, the outpost was inside and outside. I can't see any traces of battle.

The enemy did not attack from the material level, the battle was completed in the spiritual world, and it is clear that the mortal spirit is defeated.

The same is true for the third post, but Morian found a wizard near the small fire in the center of the post.

The wizard also committed suicide in the frenzy, but before he died, he set up a large number of defensive runes around him, and his magic book fragments were found scattered on the ground around the fire: sacrifice their own magic guide The book is the final card of a wizard. Only when faced with the enemy of life and death, this trick is used. Obviously, the wizard who died near the fire is the same as the commander of the first post. Fan Shu died.

Only the mysterious magical power failed to keep the wizard. He sat in the middle of his defensive circle and made his life. His heart position burned into a hole, which was the result of detonating his own magic.

According to the scene of the death of the first station commander and the third station, Hao Ren made a speculation: Although the two people were also in a frenzy, they did not encounter signs of great shock, which may be the role of the fire device. Although the fire did not completely protect their spirit, at least they kept them longer than the soldiers who died in other parts of the camp.

And if the fire can have an effect on the "invisible enemy," the culprit of this matter will naturally fall on the chaos.

On the way to the fourth post, Veronica’s expression was gloomy and terrible. The Princess’s Highness is not a restrained person. In fact, “Taros’ battlefield rose” has always been a sly temper and no princess temperament. Known for her words and deeds, she punched a tree on the trunk when she passed by an old tree: "One hundred of the best veterans! I died so badly in the camp! We don't even know what the enemy looks like!" ”

The old tree was instantly awakened, and an angry and evil face appeared on the pitted trunk. The branches turned into sharp wood and smashed Veronica: "Eat you!!"

Veronica pulled out the long sword and crossed an arc. The burning flame instantly cut off all the branches that came to her: "Shut up, then sleep!"

The old tree smashed and all the branches gathered: "Oh."

Hao Ren: "..."

On this road, Veronica was very dull because of exhaustion and pressure. He only saw the hot side of the Cavalier Princess at this time.

"There are new enemies in the chaos," Morian raised his eyebrows and quietly looked at Veronica. "His Highness, keep calm, our current main thing is to live in the forest, so that we can take us The truth that I saw was reported to the generals of the West."

The next road seemed even more boring, and after discovering the fourth post that had lost its vitality, the boring atmosphere was at the apex.

Although no one has said it, one fact has already been placed in front of Veronica: all the outposts of the kingdom set up on the west side of the Shadow Jungle have probably been unplugged.

The Jingde Road is a avenue that traverses the west side of the jungle. It just passes through every line of defense in the forest. If the outposts on this road are completely destroyed, then the possibility of the same thing happening in other areas will be very high. High, and more importantly, this road came, and the attacked outposts were not investigated and cleared. This shows that the nearby outpost did not send people to check the abnormal situation.

The fire station in the shadow jungle exchanges information with nearby outposts every day, so once a station has a problem, other outposts will soon be aware of them, and according to the bodies they found by Hao Ren In the case of decay, the attack on the first post was a long time ago. In this case, no one came to investigate, only one possibility -

All the outposts are finished.

The foundation of the defensive system established by the kingdom in two centuries was so unknowingly ruined, which made Veronica not say a word in the second half of the journey, even the knights were silent, this dull Also infected with Hao Ren, he could not find someone to speak, then he had to continue to study how to resume communication in the spiritual world.

Until they finally reach the border of the Shadow Jungle.

The trees in front of it became sparse, and the unpleasant depressing atmosphere in the air also suddenly decreased a lot. It was like suddenly crossing a certain boundary. After crossing two staggered towering ancient trees, Hao Ren suddenly felt a light .

He saw a undulating hill in front, and two majestic mountains in the distance. Between the mountains, a light beam pierced the sky, and even the dark masses of the sky were torn open. Bright white sky.

Under the light column, Hao Ren vaguely saw a magnificent wall piled up with stones. There seemed to be towering fortresses and arrow towers behind the walls, and some artifacts built along the mountain could be seen on the mountains on both sides. The buildings in these mountains are all bathed in the light of order, and the intensity of the light is far less than the light of the fire that Hao Ren saw before.

Standing on the edge of the dark forest and looking at the mountains that are plated with light in the distance, it is as if you are standing in **** and seeing the heavens is shocking.

If Hao Ren is a local, he should know that it is because of this magnificent scenery that the two mountains in the distance are called "the gate of heaven" by the mountain people of the Talos Kingdom, but even if you do not know the name, it is fine. He can still imagine how much the people who have traveled in the chaotic field will see a bright world when they see it. The knights around him have already cheered.

"It's a fortress in the West!" Veronica finally swept away the sorrows of the past few days when she saw the radiant order of light. The light of order was so powerful that ordinary people looked at the mountains in the west. They can break through the blockade of chaos and fog, and as long as they see the intensity of the order light, she knows that the West Fortress has not yet fallen. "Great, our fortress is still there!"
