The broadcast sounded abruptly, without any warning.
But after it sounded, the entire Magic Eye Train began to decelerate, probably to avoid colliding with the Child of the Forest of Viscera at its highest speed. Judging from the deceleration, the train should stop before it completely collided with the Child of the Forest of Viscera.
"Child of the Forest of Viscera, why would we encounter it in a place like this?"
Ryuga looked out of the window, the outside was still covered by a thick fog, making it impossible to see anything outside the fog.
The so-called 'Forest of Viscera' referred to a kind of plant life that had the ability to think independently and would actively hunt for food. It looked like a forest on the outside, but in essence, it was a Death Apostle with the need to suck blood. Moreover, it was a kind of lifeform with an inherent enchantment, so even among all the Death Apostles, it was undoubtedly the most powerful one.
Rumor had it that the Forest of Viscera would appear once every fifty years, attacking people who gathered there, and using the blood and magic they plundered to nurture a fruit deep inside it.
Rumor had it that as long as one ate the fruit, they would be immortal, so every time the Forest of Viscera appeared, there would be a large number of greedy people who would try to snatch the fruit.
But this legend itself was very doubtful, because no one had actually eaten the fruit of the Forest of Viscera.
But even so, this legend was still deeply rooted in people's hearts, because it was said that when the fruit was fully ripe, drops of blood would drip from the fruit, and after a part of the blood dripped into the ground, it would choose a different development path from the parent body, gradually sprouting from the ground, and become a new vampire forest.
This new vampire forest that was similar to the Forest of Viscera's main body, but not the same, was called the 'Child of the Forest of Viscera'.
"How could it be so coincidental that we would encounter the Child of the Forest of Viscera?"
Olga Marie's attention was also diverted by the broadcast, and her face showed a troubled and repulsed expression. "Death Apostles usually divide their territories, and rarely interfere with each other … Only the Child of the Forest of Viscera has never been controlled by anyone."
The Forest of Viscera would not care about the blood dripping from its fruit, so even though the Child of the Forest of Viscera was a relative of the Forest of Viscera, it was actually no different from a wild Death Apostle.
"Encountering that kind of thing will only cause trouble. I'll go back first."
Olga Marie obviously didn't want to get involved in this matter. Before she left, she took another look at Ryuga and Bazette on the bed. She wanted to say something, but in the end, she didn't say anything and left Ryuga's room.
It was impossible for a magician to be enthusiastic about helping others.
When the Magic Eye Train was in trouble, most of them would choose to turn a blind eye and hide in their own rooms. In order to prevent others from disturbing them, they might even cast a barrier or seal on their rooms.
Moreover, to be honest, the Magic Eye Train was originally a facility under the powerful Death Apostle Rita Rojeanne. The two of them were relatively equal in terms of style. Facing the obstruction of the Son of the Forest of the Sea of Organs, it was impossible for them to not have any means.
Because of this, most of the magicians chose to hide in their rooms and refused to see any visitors.
Twenty minutes later.
The speed of the Demonic Eye Train dropped to zero and came to a complete stop.
Not only that, but the thick fog around the train had also disappeared, revealing the scenery outside the train.
It was a forest of ice and snow.
It had completely painted this world into a monochrome picture. Other than the gray sky, there was only a vast expanse of white land. It was as if one would lose their direction if they walked in it. The trees that grew in it were extremely irregular.
It grew by absorbing the power of the spiritual veins. It didn't inherit any nutrition from its mother. If it wanted to grow normally, it had to rely on the magic of the outside world. Whether it was eating people or absorbing the magic of the spiritual veins, as long as it could grow, it wouldn't reject anything.
But this conflicted with the operation of the Magic Eye Train.
The Magic Eye Train itself was traveling on the spiritual veins.
The train measured the spiritual veins and planned its route according to the direction of the spiritual veins. When its magic reserves were depleted, it also needed to stop at the spiritual veins for two hours to recharge itself by absorbing the magic of the spiritual veins. That was why it stopped in the forest for two hours. That was the usual way to replenish its magic.
But if there were bandits occupying the spiritual veins on the planned route, then the Magic Eye Train would lose the direction of the spiritual veins. Not only would it be forced to stop, it wouldn't even be able to replenish its magic.
If the Magic Eye Train wanted to break out of this predicament, it had to find the spiritual veins in this area again and re-measure the direction of the spiritual veins. Only then could it continue to move forward.
After the wheels of the train stopped running in this forest of ice and snow, the cold of the forest was constantly eroding the train, causing the temperature in the train to drop rapidly to around zero degrees. Even the heating on the train was not enough.
"Dong dong dong!"
Someone knocked on Ryuga's door again.
This time, it was a hooded girl, Grey, who appeared at his door.
"Mr. Yin-yang, we're going to leave the train now and look for the spiritual veins in the forest." Grey looked a little anxious as she spoke to Ryuga directly.
"Do you need my help?"
Ryuga didn't ask why she intervened in this matter. He just directly asked for her opinion.
"No, we have Miss Yvette and Mr. Kaleb with us this time. Both of them are very reliable."
Grey shook her head. "But master will stay in the carriage. His physical strength can't support this kind of action. It's impossible for him to run back and forth in the snowy forest. I'm worried that the previous servant may target master again, so I want to ask Mr. Yin-yang to help protect master."
The second was indeed physically weak. Usually, he would fall to the ground after running for a kilometer. It was impossible for him to keep up with their pace in this kind of action.
Although the strengthening technique could enhance strength and agility, it couldn't increase physical strength. It was better to say that because using the strengthening technique would consume magic, which was also the vitality, the physical strength may be even worse.
"Okay."
Ryuga nodded and then asked, "Is there any problem on your side? Although Kaleb is there, the Son of the Visceral Forest is not easy to deal with. "
After Kaliber recognized his Demonic Eye, his strength had been greatly enhanced. With his powerful skills and gemstone level Demonic Eye, he could probably fight with a servant in a short time. Although he would lose, it was still a foregone conclusion.
"It doesn't matter. We're just looking for the spiritual veins node. We won't confront the Son of the Visceral Forest. As soon as we find the spiritual veins node, we will retreat. The danger is not high."
Ryuga nodded.
Grey still had the Holy Lance. As long as she used the Holy Lance, even if they couldn't completely destroy the Son of the Visceral Forest, at least they could escape safely.
