"We actually don't hold much hope for the 'Fruit of Dagmar'. We're only trying our luck this time in the southern depths of the Dark Forest. We only know that someone has seen this fruit in one place. Whether or not that fruit is the 'Fruit of Dagmar', and whether or not it's been taken by others, we can't be sure. Have you really decided to go on this unknown adventure with us?" Odysseus looked at Han Shuo and explained seriously to Han Shuo, then asked Han Shuo.
Han Shuo knew that the group probably didn't have much confidence after hearing Odysseus' words. However, Han Shuo felt that there didn't seem to be much to do at the moment. He'd return to the cemetery of death and continuously train and improve himself. But if he was lucky enough to obtain the "Divine Brain Fruit", then Han Shuo's "molded spirit" level of magical yuan would greatly increase.
The increase in this level would also mean that Han Shuo's mental strength would also benefit. Therefore, Han Shuo thought carefully and felt that it was worth it to take this risk with them.
Nodding, Han Shuo looked at Odysseus and responded affirmatively, "Yes, I want to go with you to the southern depths of the Dark Forest. However, if we really do discover the 'Fruit of Dagmar', I hope to obtain one. "
"Since you're so insistent, we're very happy to have you join us. I'm actually just trying my luck with the 'Fruit of Dagmar' and don't hold much hope. Our main goal is still to explore the Dark Forest, because it's rumored that there are even more attractive things within. Heh heh, if we can obtain the 'Fruit of Dagmar', we only need one to complete our mission. We can give the rest to you. "Odysseus said with a smile.
The deeper one went, the greater the danger. All sorts of true dangers would slowly be revealed. There were even more powerful magical creatures in the innermost parts of the Dark Forest, some wondrous races, and all sorts of life-threatening plants.
However, all sorts of tempting riches accompanied the dangers that could be seen everywhere. Some exotic plants would only grow in the depths, and many of them could be sold for high prices. Magical beasts of level one, two, and three could also be sold with abundant items. Of course, the prerequisite was that you had to kill them.
Since the two sides had reached an agreement, they didn't stay here any longer. After Odysseus helped Han Shuo introduce the other companions one by one, the group of seven advanced deeper into the region.
Not far in front of them was the holy land guarded by the Forest Troll. That place was guarded by the Forest Troll warriors. Although there was still some wealth in the holy land, Han Shuo had already treated it as his own personal property. So, under Han Shuo's intentional guidance, the group avoided that area, and after making a slight detour, they continued forward.
After walking like this for a day, they did not encounter much danger. When night fell, everyone came to the riverside to set up camp. Some of the lush shrubbery in the surroundings had been flattened by them. Aphrodite wore a space ring of the same quality as Han Shuo's and took out a few tents. Everyone propped up the tents one by one and set up a bonfire to cook food.
There were plump, tender fish swimming in the clear river next to them. As an adept water mage, Aphrodite cast a bit of water magic and caught a dozen or so fish. The group used their homemade wooden forks to skewer the plump fish and roast them.
When the fish were thoroughly cooked and everyone finished eating, they chatted merrily around the bonfire for a short while before going to their own tents to sleep. The female elven archer and the water mage Aphrodite slept in one tent, while the four males slept in two tents. Han Shuo volunteered to take on the role of guard and waited for them to enter their tents to sleep before he went to an isolated area to practice magic by himself.
With the three original demons around him, Han Shuo did not need to pay special attention at all. However, the practice of magic was the foundation of Han Shuo's future development, so he could not relax for even a moment. Forcefully enduring the baptism of pain in his head, Han Shuo silently sank into the practice of magic.
It wasn't until the latter half of the night that a strange sound startled Han Shuo awake from his training. Casually wiping away the sweat on his forehead, Han Shuo's three original demons' vision all fell into the bottom of his heart. Following the direction of the sound, one of the original demons left the area and flew out, swiftly approaching the place where the sound had come from in the dark night.
A twin headed dragon swayed as it approached from the distance. One of its necks was dripping with green blood, seeming to have suffered a serious injury. It flew rapidly towards Han Shuo's direction without knowing which direction it was going. Although the twin headed dragon couldn't be called a true dragon, it was still a powerful level two magical creature. No one knew why it was in such a sorry state and had fallen to the point where it had to flee for its life.
One of the original demons paid attention to the twin headed dragon's movements, and the other split off to fly in the direction that the twin headed dragon had fled from, attempting to see just what had forced the twin headed dragon to flee with injuries. It was a pity that Han Shuo did not discover anything out of the ordinary after the original demon had flown a certain distance.
Seeing the twin headed dragon fly in his direction without knowing which direction, Han Shuo immediately stood up and quickly rushed towards the tents. He shook the tent poles and called out loudly, "Wake up, there's a situation."
The sleeping adventurers groggily heard Han Shuo's call and quickly put on their clothes, walking out of their tents after a dozen or so seconds. Winter was about to begin and the nights were exceedingly cold. The six adventurers were all wrapped up tightly with only their faces exposed.
Because Han Shuo's spying was through the original demons, the six people were still unable to detect any activity even though the twin headed dragon was quickly approaching. Odysseus looked around in confusion and said to Han Shuo, "Everything seems normal. What's the situation?"
"A twin headed dragon is five hundred meters to the north and is currently approaching. I think it may pose a danger to us. We need to make preparations immediately. "Han Shuo didn't have time to explain much to them and directly spoke the truth.
Gordon didn't seem to quite believe Han Shuo's words and was about to open his mouth to question when Odysseus suddenly said lowly, "Since this is the case, let's make preparations immediately. The twin headed dragon has a violent temper and doesn't have a good impression of humans. I think it'll bring us trouble if it discovers us. "
The female elven archer Nia took out her bow and said with a bit of worry, "The twin headed dragon is a rank two magical creature. Not only can it spray poison, but its two heads can also attack with sharp teeth. It won't be easy for us to deal with it!"
Han Shuo took out his crossbow and climbed into a nearby large tree. He spoke quickly, "Don't worry, this twin headed dragon has already been injured and can't even fly. If we prepare properly, it won't be able to escape at all."
The group looked at each other after Han Shuo's words and all revealed expressions of pleasant surprise. If the twin headed dragon wasn't injured, it would be a bit troublesome for the adventurer group to deal with it. But if it couldn't even fly after being injured, this meant that the twin headed dragon's injuries weren't light. This was an opportunity bestowed by the heavens and they couldn't let it go easily.
The group with faces full of pleasant surprise were either climbing into tall trees like Han Shuo or hiding in the shadows of the trees. They all took out their weapons and focused their attention on dealing with the twin headed dragon that had an extremely poor sense of direction.
The shrubs rustled as they were swept over and the wounded twin headed dragon slowly appeared in everyone's line of sight amidst everyone's anticipation.
Gordon, who'd been a bit skeptical of Han Shuo's judgement just now, revealed an expression of admiration towards Han Shuo from afar. He grasped the longsword in his pocket excitedly, planning to give the twin headed dragon a swift and violent attack at any moment.
The twin headed dragon that had no sense of direction finally collided head-on with Aphrodite's "Water Barrier". The enormous force of impact caused the "Water Barrier" that Aphrodite had set up to suddenly scatter into droplets of water in the air.
At the same time, Han Shuo and Nia's attacks were released at almost the same time. Han Shuo couldn't continuously fire a crossbow bolt and shot one at the back of the twin headed dragon's neck. Nia had shot a total of three arrows. Apart from the first arrow that was dodged, the other two all nailed into its forehead.
The thunder journeyman mage in the group shot out a ring of lightning that struck the twin headed dragon's back. The three warriors that had long since been prepared took advantage of this moment to charge out and fly towards the twin headed dragon from behind, releasing their fighting aura to attack it fiercely.
Up ahead, Aphrodite formed two more water people to help attract the twin headed dragon's attention and create another opportunity for Han Shuo and the archer Nia to attack.
In this way, the level two magical creature didn't even have time to spray its poison a few times after being repeatedly injured. It finally collapsed weakly in a pool of its own blood after being injured to begin with.
The adventurers were all ineffably excited when they saw that they'd killed the twin headed dragon. They walked out of their hiding places with cheers and started preparing to harvest the spoils of war from the twin headed dragon's body.
At this moment, Han Shuo's expression suddenly changed drastically as he abruptly yelled out, "Hurry up and leave this place, the fellow chasing the twin headed dragon is coming. We have no chance of victory."
