In the ruins of the Ancient Tower, the most common sight was a variety of violent magical beasts.
If it wasn't for the suppression of the abilities of professionals, Ma Wen would have considered using this place as a place to farm experience points.
But now, his strength was greatly weakened. In fact, if it wasn't for the suppression of the magic circle left behind by Wizard Mikensi, Ma Wen could have used Shadow Evasion to avoid the self-destruction of the Black Flame Lava Mage when he encountered the illusion trap.
Such a light injury was nothing to Ma Wen who had [Endurance] and [Super Tenacity], but it also reflected the suppression of outsiders in this place.
When he was in the Lost Mountain Villa, some of Ma Wen's skills were still bright.
For example, Shadow Evasion.
But once he entered the ruins of the Ancient Tower, Ma Wen felt that the power of the seal kept increasing.
All of his skills had entered a gray state. This was the same as when he was in the Frost Demon Cave.
Looking at the menacing magical beast, Ma Wen gently raised his sword and pointed it at the enemy.
Luckily, he still had the Desperate Sword Skill!
…
This magical beast was very small. Its original form might have been a small animal, but after being contaminated by the arcane radiation for a long time, it had mutated horribly. This kind of situation was not uncommon in ancient wizard ruins exploration.
Strange murder cases often occurred in the remote villages of the Fernand Continent. For example, [Demon Sword Murder Case], [Blacksmith Massacre Case], and so on. These were the most common small missions that newcomers would encounter when they first joined the guild. And the source of these incidents was most likely the items that had been contaminated by arcane magic, which had developed their own violent spirituality and turned them into magical beasts.
Witchcraft was powerful, but it came with a price. Magic itself represented chaos. According to the theory of an ancient scholar in the Pearl Tower, every time a wizard used witchcraft, the universe would become more chaotic.
When the chaos of the universe reached its limit, the end of the world would come.
And the Universe Magic Pool was the chain that restrained the end of the world. It made it easier for wizards to use magic, but it also made it safer.
Ma Wen didn't know whether this theory was correct or not.
However, there was no doubt that [Mana is Chaotic] was a fact.
After the Cataclysm, he had come into contact with too many humanoid monsters and all kinds of magical beasts. They were all contaminated by the chaotic magic due to their lack of willpower.
The magical beast in front of him was most likely a creature that had been captured by Magi and brought into the Magus Tower to be used for magical experiments.
Unfortunately, after the fall of the Secret Garden, the black tower valley also became a ruin.
The wizards died one after another.
However, these creatures persevered because of their tenacious vitality.
They already knew this land like the back of their hands. Living here was like a fish in water.
Ma Wen did not dare to underestimate it.
Its movements were very fast. From afar, it looked like a small wild boar, but its explosive power was even stronger than the fiercest cheetah!
In the blink of an eye, it had actually rushed in front of Ma Wen!
"So fast!"
Ma Wen was slightly startled. He immediately turned his body and tried to dodge.
However, this little creature was extremely agile. It actually turned in mid-air and suddenly hooked its fierce fangs!
If he was hooked, even if Ma Wen was immune to fatal damage, he would still be seriously injured!
He immediately held his breath and used Extraordinary Reflex to play an important role.
His battle instincts made his body react immediately.
Green Leaf suddenly went up to meet it.
Clang!
Both sides collided. Ma Wen's wrist actually shook, and Green Leaf was almost hooked away by this beast!
He retreated and turned around with his sword, forcing the magical beast's attack to retreat.
Both sides were once again in a stalemate.
"So fast …"
Ma Wen was secretly shocked.
In that round just now, although they only exchanged one or two moves, he was fighting with the support of God's Agility.
However, this magical beast's speed, reaction, and agility were not inferior to Ma Wen at all.
Its strength seemed to be slightly stronger than Ma Wen's!
"No wonder it can live until now. Even among the fourth grade magical beasts, it can be considered one of the best."
Ma Wen shook his wrist, and his expression became serious.
But the magical beast did not care so much. With a low roar, it suddenly charged over!
Ma Wen laughed. He was just testing it earlier. He had not used his real skills yet!
Green Leaf slashed out continuously from extremely tricky angles, aiming for the magical beast's vital points!
Desperate Saber Technique!
The magical beast also reacted very quickly, trying to dodge Ma Wen's killing technique.
However, once the desperate saber technique was activated, every move was bound to be fatal.
Although this magical beast was agile, it was no match for Ma Wen's blades.
Green Leaf's twin blades were endless, as if weaving a blade net, trapping the magical beast inside.
The latter was completely in a passive position. Its body had been slashed by Ma Wen a few times, and its signs of life were constantly weakening.
It began to go berserk and began to attack everywhere.
However, Ma Wen was extremely calm. The pair of scimitars flew continuously, trapping it firmly!
At this moment, he finally felt the power of the desperate saber technique.
In his previous battles, the outcome was basically decided in a short period of time.
When a set of killing moves was used consecutively, the enemy would basically die.
But after entering the Legendary realm, everything was not so simple. Every Legendary had their own life-saving skills. To kill in one blow, in addition to a sneak attack, one also needed to crush the opponent with a level — for example, the Shadow Prince's sneak attack on a Legendary was not only because he had a strong sneak attack ability, but also because he was a God, which was a level higher than most Legends.
In the future, there would definitely be more and more fights over a long period of time.
The emergence of the desperate saber technique completely made up for the shortcomings of Ma Wen's single attack method.
A set of saber techniques that were purely made up of killing techniques played around with a ferocious magical beast.
The magical beast roared violently, but it was of no use.
From the beginning to the end, Ma Wen maintained his usual calmness. He did not pursue a one-hit kill, but continued to weaken the opponent's vitality.
Finally, after three minutes, Ma Wen found a fatal flaw in the violent magical beast!
Whoosh!
A cold light flashed, and a powerful slash!
The whole magical beast was directly cut in half by Ma Wen!
"Phew … it took about four minutes. Although the efficiency is reduced, it's safer. "
Ma Wen was very satisfied with this battle. The Slaughter EXP given by the magical beast was unexpectedly about 4,000 points.
Perhaps this had something to do with it absorbing arcane energy here for a long time.
It was a pity that this thing was worthless. After killing it, there was nothing worth plundering for Ma Wen.
After killing the magical beast, Ma Wen did not put away the machete, but looked to the side.
"You've been watching for so long, it's time to come out, right?"
Ma Wen said lightly.
There was a silence in the air.
Ma Wen snorted, raised both of his machetes, and was about to make a move.
Who would have thought that at this moment, a ripple would suddenly appear in the void where his eyes could see?
Two strange-looking men appeared in front of him.
They were also pulling a greasy tablecloth in their hands.
They looked a little embarrassed.
"Who are you?" Ma Wen slightly frowned.
The two laughed awkwardly, and one of them replied in stiff common language:
"We mean no harm …"
"No harm …" Ma Wen stared at the two. Suddenly, he sniffed with his nose:
"The smell of transformation potion … So familiar … You're not human!"
"What the hell are you!"
Ma Wen shouted. His eyes were very fierce, as if if the two did not give him an explanation, he would fight.
In fact, Ma Wen was very curious.
These two were probably not even at the second grade. Even if they were hiding something, they should not be more than the third grade.
How did they sneak in?
And what's with this strange tablecloth? If he did not sense something familiar, he would not have been able to catch them.
The two were hiding, but who knew that one of them would suddenly escape with a strange instrument.
The next second, a white light flashed, and the two disappeared into thin air!
Ma Wen was a little dumbfounded.
He had seen this kind of alchemy tool before.
Short distance position converter.
But that was something from ancient goblins …
Wait, ancient goblins!
Ma Wen suddenly remembered that the reason why he felt that the two's aura was so familiar was because they had the aura of ancient goblins.
Although Marvin wasn't a perceptive expert, with the help of the system, he was still very sensitive to ancient goblins' things when he walked like Saruha.
Where did these two fellows come from? Why do they have ancient goblins' items?
Ma Wen did not think it through for now. To him, these two were weak, and did not seem to be targeting him. It was better to avoid trouble.
He searched carefully, and after confirming that there was no one hiding nearby, he moved.
He walked in the ruins of the ancient tower, and after killing a wave of fierce magical beasts, he finally reached the area he wanted to reach.
It was a black tower that had not collapsed yet.
There were a dozen of such black towers, big and small, arranged in a certain order from the entrance to the exit of the valley.
What Ma Wen wanted to find was the seventh tower.
In this tower, it was said that there was not only the wealth left behind by the ancient Magi, but also something even more precious.
Earth Crystal Fragment!
Ma Wen already had two Earth Crystal Fragments, and once he gathered all three, he could fuse them into a real Earth Crystal!
And the Earth Crystal was the foundation of the [Prehistoric Sanctuary]. Only a complete Earth Crystal could be used with the four Pillars of Wayne and the Divine Protection Scroll to open the Prehistoric Sanctuary and summon the Guardian of the Earth.
So this Earth Crystal Fragment, Ma Wen had to get his hands on it!
Thinking of this, he did not hesitate, and directly entered the black tower!
The first floor was filled with dust.
Ancient Magi liked to do what they preached, and the magic tower did not rely on teleportation doors or elevators, but had its own spiral staircase.
However, these spiral staircases were equipped with countless traps.
Only those who knew the secret incantation would be able to proceed smoothly.
And Ma Wen could only kill his way up.
