Grimm could not help but reveal an expression of surprise.
The black cat did not use any spatial spells as it ran, but its body seemed to be shuttling through many different worlds, appearing and disappearing. If one were to close their eyes and examine it closely, they would find that not only was the black cat silent when it ran, they could not even sense the aura of a living being's bloodline or soul. It looked like a realistic phantom created by a spell, and there was no information about it that could be tracked.
There were no energy undulations, no magic undulations, no body temperature, no soul aura …
This black cat was not ordinary!
… …
It was not wise to start a massacre in the Black Forest.
For most monsters, avoiding them was the wisest choice. Otherwise, the smell of blood left behind after the monster's death would likely attract all the predators within a radius of dozens of miles, turning a forest chase into an endless forest massacre.
Grimm and the other two followed the black cat through the forest. Along the way, they encountered ferocious beasts and terrifying monsters that were hiding in the dark. Every time this happened, Gargamel would raise the staff in his hand and gently shake it. A bag of materials hung at the tip of the staff emitted a pale yellow glow.
The wild beasts and monsters would run away with their tails between their legs as if they had seen a terrifying demon.
Fear!
The A.I. Chip's feedback to Grimm quickly revealed the characteristics of the pale yellow glow, but he did not know what materials Gargamel used.
After interacting with Gargamel during this journey, Grimm deduced that this Gargamel was a Potioneering Master, and the Potioneering acolyte called Anthony was most likely his disciple. Otherwise, it would be too strange for a small town to suddenly have two Potioneering Masters!
Most of his spells were focused on potions, and his actual combat ability was a mess. Otherwise, he would not have brought a Quasi Wizard with him to act as a meat shield.
However, Grimm did not dare to let his guard down against this kind of wandering Magus.
A Magus that could continue his research without the help of his family definitely had one or two trump cards that others could not see through. Moreover, without the ties of his family, he would not be bound by the laws of Magi.
They had done a lot of dirty work, such as killing the enemy and luring the enemy into a trap. As long as they kept their hands and feet clean and changed their location after every shot, those inexperienced Sorcerers would easily become their prey.
That was why Grimm didn't dare to trust this guy too much. He cautiously enveloped himself in a flame barrier and followed behind the group with large strides.
Even with Grimm's physique, he could not help but pant slightly as he passed through streams and mountains. As for Gargamel, who had an even worse physique, his thin and withered chest was already bellowing. If he didn't grab Sabrina's shoulder for support, he would have already knelt on the ground.
Sabrina, on the other hand, relied on her semi-mechanized body. From time to time, her mechanical tentacles would fly out and grab onto the tree trunk for support. Only then did she manage to keep up with the black cat's nimble and light body. But even so, when the black cat suddenly stopped in front of a pitch-black cave, Sabrina was already sweating profusely and out of breath.
80 li!
It took them one and a half hours to travel from the campsite to here. The three of them had actually run 80 miles in a single breath in the Black Forest where it was difficult to move even an inch. The terrifying consumption of energy this brought was unbearable even for the mechanical girl who was made of iron!
"Silence!" Gargamel said in a low voice, "My black cat has already found traces of that forest demon. It's hiding in the cave."
"What are you going to do?" Grimm didn't dare to use his spiritual force to probe the cave for fear of alerting the forest demon. He couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
"I'll go in first! That damned fellow must have set up an ambush inside. But I've fought it a few times, so I'm already familiar with its tricks. When we start fighting, you guys take the opportunity to rush in and attack from both sides. Capture it in one fell swoop. Remember to move quickly, don't let it escape! "
Gargamel's suggestion caused Grimm to be slightly stunned.
Along the way, he had always been on guard against Gargamel, but he didn't expect the other party to propose such a battle plan that was completely for his sake. Gargamel had taken on all the dangers and left the safest position for himself. Could it be that he had wrongly accused him?
Grimm hesitated in his heart, but on the surface, he calmly agreed.
Gargamel quickly checked all the magic equipment on his body, then waved his hand and scattered a light blue powder. His entire body then disappeared into thin air.
However, in Grimm's elemental vision, his body was only a little blurry. He was stealthily sneaking into the pitch-black cave at the bottom of the cliff.
"Let's get ready as well!" Grimm ordered in a low voice.
He took out three strange stones with mysterious runes engraved on them. As his spiritual force seeped into them, they strangely floated up. It was as if there was an invisible orbit above Grimm's head. The three stones were fixed in the air 10 centimeters above his head, and they slowly revolved around his head.
Next, Grimm took out a pitch-black magic staff that was more than 2 meters long. With a slight shake, the dark red crystal at the tip of the staff immediately released terrifying elemental fluctuations that could cause one's heart to tremble. At the same time, all sorts of magical defensive force fields and defensive spells started surging out of his body.
Ain Stone! Magic staff!
Sabrina could not help but have a look of envy in her eyes.
These were all high-grade items in the field of magic equipment. Even the most basic ones would easily cost four to five hundred magic crystals. If they were of high quality, each of them would probably cost more than 1000 magic crystals.
For a quasi-wizard like her, having an instant magic wand that cost 100 to 200 magic crystals would already make her a millionaire among the apprentices. As for equipment that cost more than 1000 magic crystals, it would always be an extravagant accessory that she could only dream of!
Soon, as the two waited silently, a terrifying elemental explosion suddenly sounded from the depths of the pitch-black cave. The entire cliff began to tremble, and many scattered stones began to roll down.
"Let's go in and have a look!" Grimm took the lead and rushed into the cave.
What the two did not notice was that the moment they rushed into the cave, there were two inconspicuous stones on each side of the cave entrance that were faintly glowing with a blue halo.
The cave was not big, and the ground was moist and soft. There was a fishy smell in the air, as if it was the lair of some forest beast.
Grimm glanced around and found a dark and deep tunnel at the corner of the cave. Waves of elemental waves were constantly surging inside.
It seemed like the battle was very intense!
Grimm lightly tapped his magic staff, and the dark red crystal at the tip of the staff immediately burned like a torch. He led Sabrina into the tunnel without hesitation.
The tunnel was not wide, and there was still water dripping from the top. However, the elemental particles in the air were unprecedentedly active, as if there was something special underground.
The tunnel meandered downwards, and it seemed to lead straight into the thick belly of the mountain.
The wind that blew against their faces was even more bone-chilling, and there was a hint of moldy smell in it.
Another two violent tremors occurred, and dust continuously fell from the top of their heads. If it wasn't for the hood and the Flame Barrier, Grimm would have been covered in soot by now.
He rushed out of the tunnel and saw a huge natural cave in front of him. A thick stone pillar stood in front of him, blocking the violent elemental waves in the distance.
Violent elemental explosions and hoarse shouts came from the other side of the cave.
"Come quickly!" The voice was slightly hoarse, but Grimm could tell that it was the Gargamel's old voice. "I've already injured it, come quickly and stop it …"
The voice was very urgent, as if the battle was very urgent.
Grimm ran with large strides, and when he went around the stone pillar, he was shocked by the scene that appeared in front of him.
A scrawny, stooped figure was standing alone in the center of the cave. Two huge pale yellow light orbs were floating in front of him. Strange, loud elemental explosions and strong elemental shock waves were coming out of them.
The sounds of battle and the elemental vibrations that Grimm had sensed were all fake!
Grimm suddenly stopped in his tracks and waved his staff. The Flame Barrier that was hidden outside his body immediately appeared, and the dense fire elemental energy began to quickly gather around his body.
"Gargamel, what are you doing?" Grimm coldly stared at the thin figure, "Could it be that this whole thing was a lie?"
Sabrina, who was lagging behind, stopped next to the stone pillar. She anxiously scanned every corner of the cave and began to slowly retreat.
With her strength, she did not have the qualifications to interfere in a battle between Magi.
Regardless of whether this was a conspiracy or not, it was best for her to stay far away from it!
"Kekeke … It's really not easy to wait for a single Magus like you! It's not in vain that I've waited in Pine Tower Town for 5 years. Today, I finally have business … "After saying this, Gargamel could not help but let out a cold laugh. His greedy eyes were constantly looking at the magic equipment on Grimm's body.
Hearing Gargamel's words, Grimm's expression finally turned gloomy.
"Gargamel, who gave you the courage to ambush a Magus of the same rank here? Let your companions come out! I don't believe that with your strength and courage, you would dare to do such a thing … "
"Kekeke …" A clear and melodious voice suddenly sounded in the cave, "Gargamel, this guy seems to be very familiar with you! He can even see through your cowardly character … "
As soon as the voice finished, a transparent figure appeared at the top of the cave.
It was a completely transparent green humanoid with an exquisite figure and a curvaceous body. It was like a beautiful ghost made of green fluorescence. She was completely naked, but the dark magic runes and thorny flower petals that covered her body perfectly covered a few key parts of her body.
Her hair was like a fluttering branch of a flower, and her hands were made of 4 to 5 thick vines intertwined together. Her beautiful legs were split into countless thorny roots at the end … At this moment, they were all dancing in the wind, emitting a faint green fluorescence.
Forest demon!
It was actually a forest demon!
