(Today is still a two-in-one chapter, 8000 words, more than usual. Also, I wish everyone a happy weekend ~)
The 91st chapter "Falling Out"
What's the use of returning the "King's Heart"?
The Old Magician did not answer this question. Moreover, his story ended here and he refused to continue. This made Du Wei very depressed. No matter if it was his previous life or this life, he was a very curious person. This kind of mysterious story, not giving an answer halfway, really made him feel very uncomfortable.
However, the Old Magician at least vaguely answered Du Wei's question: "Our goal is still to go North. Bringing you along … will naturally be of use. "
Fine!
Du Wei clenched his teeth. Since he was already on this black ship, he might as well go all the way. Moreover, under the hands of these two strong people, Du Wei also had no way to do anything.
Although Queen Medusa was following behind him, Du Wei was not naive enough to think that this Medusa Queen would listen to his orders. This snake beauty, who was so beautiful that it bordered on disaster, followed him purely to "observe human nature". Therefore, don't expect her to be your hired thug.
Going North … What is there in the North?
The Old Magician smiled mysteriously: "You will know when we arrive."
If it wasn't because of the huge difference in strength between the two sides, Du Wei really wanted to take off his boots and mercilessly smash the Old Magician's nose. Let's see if this old guy will still smile so proudly if his nose is smashed flat!
Just like this, the team lost Dadaneier, but gained an Old Magician.
"We need to hurry." The Old Magician announced: "I have arranged a magic array for those guys from the Shrines on the shore of the Big Circle Lake. According to my estimation, if they want to come out of the magic array, it will take them two days. Moreover, I have arranged some false appearances for them, hoping that they will chase in the opposite direction. "
Well, then let's go!
Du Wei sighed.
The Old Magician took out the bag that seemed to never be finished. He put his hand inside for a while and took out a whistle. He blew it for a while … The whistle did not make any sound, but Hussain and Medusa at the side frowned at the same time.
Obviously, this was another magic tool.
Not long after, there was the sound of running in the snow, and then in Duwei's surprised eyes, there were four strong wolves running from the snow in the forest!
Ice Demon Wolves!!
"Oh! No, no, don't move, don't scare these little guys! " The Old Magician waved his hand and stopped Du Wei and Hussain from attacking. He slowly walked over, opened his sleeves, and murmured an incantation that Du Wei did not understand. The four Ice Demon Wolves in the snow were as docile as domestic puppies. They whined a few times and obediently lay down on the snow, letting the Old Magician gently stroke their backs.
Then the Old Magician smiled: "Well, there are four of us, each of us can ride one. This is better than walking."
Ride … wolves?
Or Ice Demon Wolves?
Du Wei did not know whether he should sigh or sigh.
"Come here, little friend." The Old Magician had a very amiable smile: "You are the smallest and the lightest … Oh, you can ride it." As he spoke, he pointed at one of the wolves with gray fur. Seeing Du Wei approaching, the wolf's fur suddenly stood up and it let out a very unfriendly whine. At the same time, it bared its teeth and stared at Du Wei.
"Are you sure? I'll ride it? " Looking at this wolf, Du Wei suspected that if he took one step closer, it would definitely open its mouth and swallow him.
"Come here! Don't be afraid! " The Old Magician beckoned to Du Wei and at the same time hugged the wolf's head. He leaned down and whispered something into the wolf's ear. Then, the wolf really quieted down and docilely followed the Old Magician to Du Wei's side.
Although the Ice Demon Wolf was a mid-level magic beast, it was almost twice as tall as the average wolf. It meekly lay down in front of Du Wei. Under the Old Magician's guidance, Du Wei tried to reach out and touch its back. The wolf did not resist, but instead lowered its head and softly snorted a few times.
"Well, it likes you." The Old Magician smiled: "Now, ride it. Don't move, I will control where they go."
Before entering the frozen forest with the Old Magician, Du Wei was already full of admiration for his ability to communicate with animals. At that time, he saw the Old Magician casually get a few Snow Hounds and control them so freely. Even the knowledgeable Du Wei could not recognize what kind of magic it was … Communicating with animals? He had never heard of any magic that had this kind of ability.
Hussain and Medusa did not need the Old Magician's help. Hussain used the Knight's powerful Dou Qi to suppress the Ice Demon Wolf. The Ice Demon Wolf under him let out a sorrowful cry, helplessly straightening its body and carrying the Knight. If it was slightly dissatisfied, the Knight gently stretched out his finger and flicked the Ice Demon Wolf's forehead, making it jump in pain.
As for Medusa, it was even more terrifying. The top level magic beasts originally had the instinct to summon lower level magic beasts for their own use. Medusa sat on the back of a Ice Demon Wolf, but that Ice Demon Wolf was already frightened to the point that it could not help but let out a low cry. It was as docile as it could be.
However, Medusa unexpectedly "looked" at the Old Magician. Although she did not really open her eyes, her face looking at the Old Magician clearly showed a trace of surprise.
"Your ability to communicate with living creatures is very good." Medusa softly said: "It's been a long time since I've seen such a pure De …"
At this point, Medusa suddenly smiled and stopped talking.
The Old Magician nodded gratefully, then coughed: "Okay, let's go!"
At this time, suddenly from the canyon behind them came a sharp cry: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Wait for me!! "
Then a gray ball of flesh "rolled" out from the entrance of the canyon. It was none other than the mouse Prime Minister, Gege Wu.
Gege Wu had already taken off that ridiculous Prime Minister's robe. His gray fur was covered with a fur coat made of some unknown animal's fur. He wore a funny hat on his head and carried a small bag on his back. He exerted strength on his four limbs and madly ran in front of everyone, throwing himself on the ground and crying loudly: "Your Majesty! You can't just leave poor Gege Wu like this! If you leave, how can Gege Wu survive here alone! You know, I'm now a mouse, I can't return to the human world … But if I stay here, the canyon will belong to the Treants … I … "
Even though Medusa was a magical beast and didn't understand human nature, Gege Wu had been with her for twenty years and taught her a lot of human knowledge. At this moment, when she heard Gege Wu's pleading, she couldn't help but sigh slightly. Medusa thought for a moment: "Okay, then you can follow."
Gege Wu was overjoyed when he heard this. He had already decided to follow Medusa and had already packed his things in the bag behind him. As for the mouse people in the canyon … Let them fend for themselves!
Now that he got permission, he immediately wiped away his tears. But when he looked around, he was a little troubled.
There were a total of four magic wolves.
Gege Wu's body was very small and didn't take up much weight. Even if he squeezed with someone to ride the same wolf, it wouldn't be a problem. But after looking at it, Queen Medusa was so beautiful that she didn't look like a human, and she had accumulated her prestige for many years. How could Gege Wu dare to ride with her?
As for the indifferent Knight who wanted to cut his neck with a sword, Gege Wu couldn't wait to avoid him! If he rode with him, maybe he would say something to annoy him on the way, and his mouse head would move.
As for the strange Old Magician … Forget it.
After looking for a long time, Du Wei still looked the most amiable. Gege Wu's mouse face had an embarrassed smile, walked over, bowed, and didn't speak. Du Wei had already understood its meaning and sighed: "Okay, you can come up, but … You should be able to become smaller, right?"
Gege Wu quickly nodded. Although he had turned from a human into a mouse, it was also because he drank the fountain of youth. His magical transformation technique was naturally ninety percent useless, and he couldn't change back to a human or other appearance. But at least he could maintain the shape of a mouse, and become smaller was still possible.
He shook his body a few times and muttered a few incantations. His body shook a few times and immediately shrank down, finally turning into the size of an ordinary mouse. But he was still very fat, round like a meatball. But this appearance was much more pleasing to the eye. He looked a bit like the pet mice that many girls in Du Wei's previous life liked to raise. He also looked a bit like a famous cartoon character from Du Wei's previous life, the Japanese animation master Miyazaki's work: Totoro the Totoro.
Du Wei held him up with both hands and carried Gege Wu's bag on his back. Then Du Wei put Gege Wu in his chest and warned: "Be careful, don't move around. If you dare to get into my clothes, I will roast you and eat you!"
Following the Old Magician's shout, the four magic wolves immediately spread their legs and ran with all their might!
In the boundless snowy forest, the four strong magic wolves ran with all their might, leaving a long trail of footprints in the snow. But a moment later, dark clouds gathered in the sky, and then snowflakes floated down, quickly covering the footprints.
The speed of these magic wolves was several times faster than an ordinary horse! In addition, the magic wolves were originally agile, jumping up and down. Even if the trees in the forest blocked their path, they could jump up the branches and continue forward.
But sitting on the back of a wolf was much more uncomfortable than sitting on a horse. Although the journey was fast, the degree of bumpiness almost caused Du Wei's body to fall apart.
Fortunately, when resting at night, Du Wei was able to stretch his body to his heart's content. In one breath, he did the set of movements several times before he recovered.
When Du Wei was doing the movements, the Old Magician was watching from the side. After watching Du Wei do the first time, the Old Magician sighed: "This set of movements was taught to you by Hussain, right?"
Du Wei didn't hide it and directly admitted it. The Old Magician's expression was somewhat complicated. He stared at Du Wei for a long time, then sighed and turned to leave. In the wind, he seemed to be talking to himself:
"Destined … … Everything is destined. I taught him the first set, and Hussain can teach him the second set … … These coincidences are all the arrangements of fate."
Riding these magic wolves, they ran for about four days. During the four days, they would run madly through the forest during the day. At night, they would camp and rest. Then, they would wake up early in the morning and continue their journey.
This way, even though the magic wolves were much stronger than ordinary wolves, their bodies were strong and their claws and teeth were sharp, they could no longer endure this kind of hard work. The four wolves became somewhat dispirited. The Old Magician saw this. On the fifth day, he released the wolves and took out his whistle.
This time, after blowing the whistle, he didn't summon the magic wolves. Instead, with a rustling sound, the snowy ground caved in and a large hole appeared! Then, from the hole crawled out a creature the size of a big bed …
A spider!
Looking at such a large spider standing before him, it gently shook off the ice and snow on its body. Its eight thick claws were covered with a thick layer of yellow hair! Black stripes could be seen on its round belly. As for its face … … after one glance, Du Wei didn't dare to look at it a second time!
This large spider actually had a face that looked like a human's! However, it seemed to be distorted. Its facial features were somewhat dislocated. When it opened its mouth, it revealed two large teeth!
The Old Magician jumped onto the spider's back as if there was no one around. Then, he gently pressed down on the spider's head and closed his eyes … …
After a moment, he gently wiped off his sweat and said with a smile, "Okay, come up … … all of you, come up."
Gege Wu, who was in Du Wei's embrace, was so scared that he was trembling. His teeth were chattering as he said, "Evil Faced Spider Queen! Heavens! This is an 'Evil Faced Spider Queen'! "
Evil Faced Spider Queen?
Du Wei frowned. He couldn't help but feel goosebumps all over his body!
Du Wei had learned a lot about magic beasts along the way. He had heard the leader of the Snow Wolf Mercenary Group, Bein Rich, mention a few high level magic beasts. One of them was this Evil Faced Spider Queen.
This was a terrifying and disgusting thing. They … … or more accurately, "they". This type of spider lived deep underground under the ice layer. Moreover, after a male and female spider mated, the female spider would eat the male spider. Therefore, those that could grow to a large size were all female spiders. This was why they were called "Spider Queens".
This type of magic beast lived under the ice and snow. They had extraordinary strength and could easily tear apart ice that was harder than metal. Their bodies were covered with a layer of hard outer shell! If you want to know how hard it is … there was a record in history that several fifth-level warriors slashed at it with their swords for a while, but they still couldn't hurt it.
At the same time, they also had the ability of spiders: to spin webs!
This type of magic beast's spider silk was abnormally tough. Swords could not cut through it. It was several times stronger than iron chains. Moreover, it had a fatal dissolving poison! Once the prey was entangled in this spider's web, the poison would immediately enter the prey's body. Then, the prey would quickly dissolve!
This was not all. This type of spider had another powerful ability. It could spread a poisonous fog!
This was a type of weakening spell that was strengthened by several times. Once this type of spider faced an enemy, it could spread the poisonous fog, weakening the enemy by several times. No matter if it was magic or martial arts, it would be weakened by a lot. Moreover, it had a strong penetrating power … … Even if you held your breath, the poisonous fog could still enter your body through the pores on your skin.
And the disgusting thing about it was this type of creature's eating habits.
When they caught their prey, they would not immediately kill it. Instead, they would use their poison to paralyze the prey and keep the prey alive … … They would not bite or gnaw on the prey. Instead, they had a long and sharp straw like thing in their mouth. They could pierce into the prey's body and then … … suck!
Suck blood, brain matter, bone marrow … … Anything that was liquid or semi-liquid!
Even the prey that was paralyzed by the poison could still maintain consciousness when being sucked. It was just that the pain would be much lower … … They could only watch this type of monster suck their own body fluids!
Moreover, this type of spider monster was a type of guy that liked to "store". They would not eat their prey all at once. Instead, they would eat half of it … … and keep the other half! Often after the prey had been sucked a lot of liquid, they would wrap it in a cocoon-like state and store it … … Even after storing it for a period of time, the prey would still be alive!
He did not know what kind of ability the Old Magician used to be able to summon and control this type of high level magical beast. But it was clear that it was not as easy for him to control the magic wolves as before.
Letting out a sigh of relief, the Old Magician looked at the somewhat dazed Du Wei and laughed: "What's wrong? Kid, you aren't scared are you? Well, this guy is very obedient. Come on up quickly. "
Du Wei endured the nausea and climbed up the spider's back. The yellow hairy tentacles on the spider's back made Du Wei feel waves of nausea. But after he sat down firmly, he bitterly smiled and said: "I say, next time can you not make such a disgusting thing? Can't you summon four more magic wolves? "
"Magic wolves?" The Old Magician laughed: "Kid, look here! This is the northern part of the Frozen Forest! Only high level magical beasts can move around here! There are no mid level magical beasts like the Ice Magic Wolves here! To be able to find such a big guy is already very lucky. "
Seeing Hussain sitting down beside Du Wei without saying a word, Medusa hesitated for a moment … … It seems that snakes do not like spiders.
Gege Wu was still hiding in Du Wei's arms and shivering. Du Wei could not help but mutter: "What kind of method does this old guy use to control these magical beasts … …"
Before Du Wei could finish muttering, a familiar voice suddenly came from the depths of his heart:
"You can't guess? You actually can't guess? "
Du Wei almost shouted out!
Saimel?
After being unable to contact Saimel for so many days, there was finally a response!
Saimel relied on Du Wei's spiritual force to survive. At this moment, there was no need for words. Saimel's voice was transmitted directly into Du Wei's mind.
"You have read so many books, and you claim to be the most knowledgeable person in the Rowling family. Why can't you think through this matter properly? You keep thinking that this is a type of magic. Why don't you think outside of magic and think about other ways? Let me tell you, this ability to control living creatures is not a type of magic. It is a very famous thing … … have you guessed it? "
Controlling living creatures … … controlling living creatures … …
Du Wei's eyes suddenly lit up!
Indeed, this was not a type of magic!
But … …
Du Wei stole a glance at the Old Magician and suddenly remembered what Medusa almost said that day!
De … …
De what?
Druil!!
Only the Druil, this magical race, could have this innate ability to be close to nature and communicate with all living creatures!
However, Du Wei had read in the literature that the name Druil had become a historical term on the Roland Continent. This magical race had become extinct a long time ago.
However, there were no absolutes in this world.
"Hey," Du Wei thought of this and suddenly smiled. "Old man … … I suddenly remembered. You are a Druil, right? I did not expect you to be a Druil! Wasn't the Druil race already extinct? "
The Old Magician's face did not show the slightest surprise. He coldly looked at Du Wei and said in a low voice. "You guessed? Humph, Saimel must have told you, right? Otherwise, how could a brat like you have guessed it? I'm afraid you don't even know what a Druil is! Don't call me that, other than you, everyone here knows what I am! "
Sure enough, Medusa had already recognized the Old Magician's true identity a few days ago. Hussain's face was also calm. It was obvious that he already knew.
The only one who didn't know about it until now was Duwei … Oh, maybe there was also the mouse in his arms.
The Old Magician's eyes suddenly lit up and his face showed a bit of excitement. "Saimel communicated with you? Can you ask her to come out … … Sigh, why is she unwilling to see me? "
Du Wei had also been thinking about the relationship between the Old Magician and Saimel. He asked in his heart. Saimel's answer was somewhat at a loss. "I don't know … … I don't think I know him. But I don't know why, but I feel very resistant towards this person, as if I don't want to get close to him. "
Du Wei shrugged. Before he could say anything, the Old Magician saw Du Wei's expression and already guessed something. He sighed. "Forget it … … It's not strange that she doesn't want to see me. But I want her to come out and see … … see this place! Back then, we came here together! "
As soon as his voice fell, Du Wei suddenly felt a cold wind behind him. Then, Saimel's hand was placed on Du Wei's shoulder. Du Wei turned around and saw Saimel standing behind him. Her silver hair looked especially elegant in this world of ice and snow. She was wearing a red dress and was barefooted. She floated in the air and looked into the distance.
When the Old Magician saw Saimel, his face showed an excited expression. He took a deep breath. "You … … You finally decided to show yourself!"
"I don't know you." Saimel looked into the distance and shook her head. "I'm also not the Saimel you know. Besides, I've never been here before … … But, why do I feel a strong sense of familiarity? "
Hussain harrumphed. He hugged his sword and closed his eyes to rest. Medusa, on the other hand, did not say anything. She just looked in the direction where Saimel was standing and frowned. (Although Saimel's appearance is invisible to ordinary people, Queen Medusa does not need to 'see' to sense that there is another person here.)
"Although this kid said that you are not Saimel and are just a magical creature … … I feel that it might not be true." The Old Magician's eyes were deep as he stared at Saimel. "You feel a sense of familiarity towards this place … … Is it true? What is that feeling? "
Saimel's beautiful face suddenly showed a trace of viciousness. This trace of viciousness flashed through her eyes. Her bright red robes suddenly fluttered in the cold wind. She shouted. "I don't know! But I only know that standing here, I suddenly hate you! I suddenly feel an incomparable hatred towards you … … I can't help but want to … … want to kill you! "
As she spoke, she raised her slender finger and pointed it at the Old Magician. Her beautiful face was covered in a layer of frost. Her fingertips emitted traces of cold air, and within the cold air, there was a faint crackling of electricity!
"Ha ha ha ha ha!!" The Old Magician laughed loudly. Then, he looked at Saimel's fingertips. "Look! Look at your fingers! You still dare to say that you are just a magical creature? It was impossible for a purely spiritual magical being to use magic! Look at your fingers! What is that! Isn't that the Star Magic you used in the past?! "
Hearing this, Saimel could not help but be stunned. She lowered her head to look at her fingers. The confusion in her eyes deepened. She could not help but tremble. "I … … What is going on … … I, how can I use magic?"
Du Wei sighed.
Using magic? This woman has used magic more than once or twice along the way. One of the times, she almost died together with Hussain. But the first two times, she seemed to be in a daze. But now, she is in a clear state.
"Saimel … …" The Old Magician's voice suddenly softened. His eyes seemed to contain something called "tenderness". He whispered. "I don't know what happened to your body, but I believe that I can find out. Let me help you recover your memories, okay?"
"No!" Saimel's face suddenly changed. She shouted. "I don't want to recover my memories! I am not the Astrologer Saimel you speak of! I am me, I am a magical creature! Old man! Don't bother me! "
With that, Saimel waved her hand and her body disappeared with a whoosh.
Du Wei and the others fell into silence, each of them with a strange expression.
Only Gege Wu, who was in Du Wei's arms, suddenly tried to stick out his mouse head. He squinted his eyes in the cold wind and asked curiously, "What were you talking about just now? Who were you talking to? What Saimel? Why can't I see her? "
But it seemed that no one would pay attention to the mouse Prime Minister's curiosity. Du Wei casually stuffed him into his coat and turned to look at the Old Magician. His eyes flashed. "I say, how many things have you not told us? Old man? "
"When you know, I will let you know." The Old Magician's expression was somewhat gloomy. There was even some pain in his eyes.
"Then, what about Saimel? She is now connected to my spiritual power! I don't care if she is the real Saimel or a magical creature, I think I need to know something about her. "
"Okay." The Old Magician thought for a moment.
His expression was somewhat haggard, and the pain in his eyes grew more intense. He slowly sat down on the spider's back. In that instant, he seemed to have aged ten years.
"Saimel …" The Old Magician spoke in a low voice. "I knew her a long, long time ago … Well, more than two hundred years ago. At that time, she was still a famous female Astrologer. "
"And then?"
The Old Magician suddenly laughed. His laughter grew louder as he looked at Du Wei with a strange expression. "Boy, you are such a smart person, can't you guess?"
He gently patted his robe and sneered: "Saimel, originally a pure Astrologer, didn't know any magic … But suddenly, she was able to comprehend a set of mysterious Star Magic! Don't you think it's strange? Humph, you have already learned a bit of Star Dou Qi, so when you heard the name Star Magic, don't you think it's strange? Don't you even think about it? "
"It's because I thought of it that I need to ask you for confirmation." Du Wei coldly said.
"Saimel … She was such a simple woman, a genius addicted to Astrology, a female scholar who wanted to spread the word of Astrology. But later on, she suddenly comprehended Star Magic … In fact … "The Old Magician pointed at his nose:" In fact, the truth is very simple! She is the same as me, she is also a descendant of Aragon! We were originally companions, but later on … We turned against each other! "
