The Northern Wilderness of the Duchy of Creville. Decades had passed, but it was still barren. Decades ago, it was the base of the Wizard Alliance represented by Levis. They used the complex mountainous terrain and underground karst caves to build the dark Northern Wilderness Underground City.
Today, in this underground city, there were still monsters left behind by the Wizard Alliance's experiments. The entire Northern Wilderness was covered with thorns and weeds, but there were basically no trees. There were only two or three scattered in the field of vision.
In the autumn of the 14th year of the San Calendar, Levis led the entire Wizard Alliance and the 3,000 Owl Knights out of the Duchy of Creville. They slaughtered the entire Moore Province and human cities along the way of the Kingdom of the Church of Light. They arrived at St. Sarl City and were destroyed by Saintess Kelly. The Duchy of Creville was cleansed by the Church of Light. Now, the Grand Duke who controlled the Duchy of Creville was replaced by Pope Hodap's grandnephew.
The Northern Wilderness, because of Levis and the terrifying legend he left behind, as well as the complex and terrible underground city, was regarded as a forbidden place by everyone. No one dared to step into this place. In addition, the experimental monsters and synthetic beasts that emerged from time to time in the underground city would also devour the lives of the people in the nearby villages. Even now, in the 60th year of the San Calendar, Levis was still known as the monster of the Northern Wilderness. He was still an existence that scared people out of their wits and stopped children from crying at night.
In such a forbidden place for humans, there was a small team moving forward. The composition of the team was very complicated. There were ordinary people, Blood Knights, scholars, hunters, and, of course, the most mysterious wizards.
After passing through a mountainous area full of brambles and strange things that looked like hell, and passing through a canyon that looked like the gates of hell, they arrived in front of a rock wall. Pushing aside the dense and complex withered vines, they revealed a cave behind it.
In the entire Northern Wilderness, there were many such caves, so many that it was impossible to count them all. Even when walking, people who were not familiar with the road here would often slip and fall into the collapsed potholes, falling into the complex underground cave system. They would either fall to their death or get lost, never to come out again.
If one didn't know the correct path, entering it would only mean death for an ordinary person. Walking in front was a handsome and scholarly young man. However, his skin was so white that it made people feel a little creepy. There was not a trace of blood Qi on him. His eyes were also dark green. At first glance, he looked like a dead person.
If Frank were here, he would immediately recognize this person. It was his own student named Adenos Monar. He was very talented in Blood Witchcraft, and his body transformation and exploration were very similar to Frank's.
This made Bohr think that Adenos Monar would be his successor. However, during one of his experiments, Bohr discovered that Adenos Monar was trying to use living people to transform them. This made Bohr furious, and he expelled Adenos Monar from the Wizard Tower, stripping him of his status as a formal graduate of the Wizard Tower. However, before Adenos Monar left, he sneaked into Bohr's laboratory and used Bohr's tower badge to use Bohr's authority to steal part of the Wizard Tower's inheritance. After that, he disappeared without a trace.
Frank was very angry, but he still remembered their old friendship. Plus, he didn't lose anything important. After issuing a wanted order for Adenos Monar, he didn't pursue Adenos Monar's responsibility. Otherwise, if Frank had personally taken action, Adenos Monar would never have escaped from the hands of Frank and the wizard tower.
Adenos Monar stood in front of the cave and looked at the pitch-black hole that led deep underground. He took out a tattered old parchment scroll and flipped through it. He looked at the nearby terrain and markings. After matching the terrain markings, he nodded.
"Yes, it's here. Light the torches. Everyone, be careful. There are many dangerous transformed creatures and traps left behind by witchcraft."
Adenos Monar held the torch and walked in front of the cave. The hunters were constantly checking and eliminating traps, as well as possible directions that might lead to the wrong path. They also wanted to know how to change the path of the cave that had originally collapsed.
The scholars were explaining some of the hidden markings and annotations on the map. Adenos Monar's mind power was spreading out. He released a simple basic witchcraft mental exploration field, which allowed him to see the terrain network of dozens of meters around him. The network information was constantly transmitted back to his mind as he continued to move forward. In the dark cave, under the illumination of the torch, his shadow constantly rotated from the front to the back as he moved forward.
The sound of water dripping could be heard in the cave. The deeper they went, the darker and damper it became. Apart from a few troublesome traps and collapses, they didn't encounter anything more troublesome. It was relatively smooth.
"Hiss!"
Adenos Monar's ears twitched and he raised his hand. At this time, everyone felt the movement in front of them. Everyone held their weapons in their hands. Two Blood Knights immediately stood guard beside Adenos Monar.
"Hiss!"
The ground in front of them trembled slightly. Everyone stared at the front of the cave with their torches raised high. At this moment, everyone present was a little nervous. A man's reputation was like a tree's shadow. Levis's reputation was too great, and this was his base camp. Even though decades had passed, most of the monsters he had left behind should have died by now. The remaining monsters wouldn't be very powerful, but everyone was still afraid of his reputation. Even the things he had left behind were frightening, even for these battle-hardened warriors.
Adenos Monar also looked ahead. The thing was coming very fast, incredibly fast, and it was heading straight for them. It was obvious that the thing must have sensed their presence. It didn't see them, but it knew that they were here. How did it detect them? Was it its scent?
When everyone looked down the cave, Adenos Monar suddenly woke up. He looked up and saw a pair of cold eyes above him. Adenos Monar immediately shouted, "It's up there!"
"Hiss!"
It was too late. The monster leaped down and its long legs pierced through the scholar's chest like a sickle. The monster had chosen the weakest spot first and retreated with one strike. It was very insidious and cunning.
Only then did everyone see its face clearly. It was a big spider with the head of a woman. It had a gorgeous face and a huge spider body. It clung tightly to the wall of the cave and roared at them. It was a horrifying sight.
Adenos Monar was pleasantly surprised. "A chimera! Indeed, Levis has reached the pinnacle in this aspect. The things he left behind will definitely be what I want."
