The appearance of dawn meant that they had finally reached the end of the dark tunnel.
The two quickly walked out of the tunnel. In front of them was a world full of light!
The sky was clean and clear, the sun shone down slowly. The land was vast and fertile. In the garden, wild flowers were blooming.
Milson Garden!
A hint of excitement appeared on Ibu's face.
They had finally found this place.
"Come, let's go take a look."
Ma Wen did not delay. While the King of Potions was most likely fighting with the Legends, he and Ibu would take the path of retreat. Maybe they could get something.
It would be best if they could get the water of the Styx. After all, the Great Elven King was a very important character.
In the process of fighting against the Gods, a strong person like him was needed to protect Fernand.
The two walked forward. The scenery in the garden was still beautiful, but their expressions changed from the initial joy to more and more unsightly.
Milson Garden exuded a strong smell of potions.
But most of the potions had been swept away!
Only a mess was left.
It could be seen that this garden had been strictly divided a long time ago.
Every area was planted with valuable potions, and there were wooden signs describing the potion's name and effects.
There were also traces of magic arrays on the ground.
But now, all the potions and magic arrays had been destroyed.
Some potions still had some leaves and roots left, but they could not survive.
Ma Wen and Ibu walked along, their faces gloomy.
Finally, they came to a dark and damp area.
Here, the wooden sign outside was marked with the words [Water of the Styx].
The so-called water of the Styx naturally did not refer to the water of the Styx in the Nine Hells.
But this potion was indeed inextricably linked to Hell, so the original person who named it used such a name.
Ma Wen and Ibu walked into the area.
As expected, the magic arrays in this area were also destroyed, and all the water of the Styx was swept away!
…
"You are right." Ibu gritted his teeth. "That damned potion swallowed all the other potions."
Ma Wen was silent.
Although he had already expected such an outcome, he still held onto a sliver of hope.
However, when he saw this scene with his own eyes, his emotions were the same as Ibu's. He was a little depressed.
The greedy King of Potions really did not let go of the water of the Styx River.
Even if this magic potion was cursed.
For the King of Potions who had grown up, these curses were probably nothing.
Ibu was so angry that he beat his chest and stamped his feet. "Even a magic potion can break these magic circles. What were those Mikanshi wizards doing back then?"
Ma Wen frowned when he heard that.
He felt that something was wrong.
Wizard Mikanshi's magic circle was definitely not weak.
Xiao Chen could feel it from the Ancient Desolate Tower's rubble. Even after so many years, the Ancient Desolate Tower still had such a strong suppression on outsiders.
Even now, the Secret Garden still had the ability to weaken outsiders. All of this was enough to prove the ancient Wizard Mikensi's attainments in magic circles.
If the King of Potions could swallow other magic potions, Ma Wen would believe it.
But to say that he could break the magic circle protecting the magic potions … … This was a bit unbelievable.
There seemed to be something hidden behind all of this.
… …
But now that things had come to this, there was no point in speculating.
The two quickly discussed for a while. There was only one way now, and that was to capture the King of Potions, Eric!
If he really swallowed the water of the Styx River, then as long as they caught him, they could extract the components of the Styx River from him.
At that time, it would not be impossible to save the Great Elven King.
"This garden is so big. If it is as you said, the King of Potions is very cunning. He can completely disguise himself as a wild flower or weed. It will be difficult for us to find him."
Ibu frowned. "Although I am not afraid of his magic, if he deliberately wants to hide, there is nothing we can do."
Ma Wen's eyes lit up. "You are not afraid of his magic?"
Ibu nodded.
Hearing what Ibu said, Ma Wen let out a long sigh of relief.
Previously, he was still hesitant about whether to retreat if he could not find the water of the Styx River.
Although he had a plan to take down Eric, the King of Potions, there were too many strange things that had happened since he entered the secret garden.
He felt that something was wrong.
His resistance to magic was very high, but according to the Mana Wraith, the King of Potions' magic had reached perfection. If he fell into it, he would be finished.
But since Eevee had said so, he should have absolute confidence in it.
The Wood Elves had a very long history. They were the descendants of the High Elves. After the end of the Elven Era, they were the only elves who stayed in the Fernand continent. As the son of the Wood Elven King, Ibu must have a lot of good things in his hands. It was just that he usually disdained to use them.
Although Nicholas was very strict with Ibu, from the many blessings on Ibu, he was also very fond of this son.
The King of Potions was powerful, but as long as his magic could be broken, he was just a potion.
Ma Wen thought for a moment and finally said, "I may know where it is!"
…
Before Ma Wen entered the secret garden, he had a conversation with the Mana Wraith Eric.
The latter pointed out where the King of Potions' true body was hiding, the Original Garden of Eden.
This name might be a mystery to others.
After all, in the eyes of outsiders, there were only four areas in the secret garden: the Lost Villa, the ruins of the Tower of Desolation, the remains of the star beasts, and the Milson Garden.
But in fact, Ma Wen knew that there was a fifth area here.
That was a hidden plane – the Garden of Eden.
There were planes within planes. This was the masterpiece of the ancient mages.
They planted most of the precious potions in the Milson Garden.
All the rare and precious potions that were on the verge of extinction were planted in the hidden plane [The Original Garden of Eden].
In the beginning, the King of Potions' true body was also inside.
This was because the Wizard who first discovered him thought that this potion had an unprecedented devouring characteristic and was worth studying.
However, before he could get any results from his research, this potion had already attracted a destructive Astral Beast to the Secret Garden.
Everything that happened after that was completely out of Wizard Mikensi's control.
Of course, Ma Wen knew where the Original Garden of Eden was, but the information he got was not sure if the King of Potions was still hidden in it.
Although the Mana Wraith's words were hard to determine, it was worth a try.
…
At that moment, the two gave up the idea of looking for the Styx water and set off towards the depths of the Milson Garden.
Not far away, a hidden valley appeared in front of the two.
There was a shallow stream in the valley. The stream flowed down the mountain, and the water was very clear.
Ma Wen pondered for a moment and walked into the stream.
He searched the ground for a while and finally found what he wanted.
It was five stones of different colors.
He picked up all five stones and swapped places with them.
This was a simple runestone password switch. Those who knew would naturally be able to decipher it, but those who did not know would probably be fooled forever.
After a while, there was a rumbling sound coming from the depths of the valley.
A large amount of dust fell.
A door covered by moss and vines opened its arms to the two of them.
Ibu looked at Ma Wen with a strange look, "Sometimes I feel that the real Awakened do not know as much as you do."
Ma Wen smiled bitterly.
His prophetic ability couldn't be hidden from others, especially those who were close to him.
However, these friends respected and trusted him very much.
That was enough.
Ibu knew that Ma Wen was mysterious but he could feel that Ma Wen had no malice towards him. His origin might be a mystery but who didn't have their own secrets in this world?
There were many things that were destined to be kept in the stomach for a lifetime and could not be shared with others.
Ma Wen was also very helpless.
… …
The two of them left the stream and walked towards the gate in the valley.
At this moment, a shadow appeared beside the gate.
Ma Wen's eyes narrowed but the other party had already opened his mouth.
"You still found me."
"Poor stowaway … you still don't understand your fate?"
Ma Wen's mind shook.
Eevee roared angrily, "Shut up!"
His words seemed to have a magical power and Ma Wen was suddenly freed from that strange state.
His eyes returned to normal.
"Fuck … there is actually such a spell …"
"It is the same as the illusion demon I encountered on the Plane Stairs last time."
Ma Wen's heart was pounding wildly. He almost fell for the other party's trick.
He took a deep breath, looked at the Mana Vengeful Spirit that appeared leisurely, and asked Ibu, "What did he just say?"
Ibu shook his head and said, "He just opened his mouth and didn't say anything, but I'm sure it must be a soul-sucking spell. Are you okay? "
Ma Wen nodded.
It really was a spell. Only he could hear it.
Because it was his own voice.
He forcibly suppressed these distracting thoughts and stared coldly at the Mana Vengeful Spirit.
"You knew I would come."
"How should I address you? Erik, the King of Potions? Erik, the Mana Vengeful Spirit? Or … "
"The Legendary Wizard Ollikai?"
When Ma Wen said the last sentence, the Mana Vengeful Spirit's face finally changed.
He said in surprise, "How, how do you know …"
Ma Wen smiled coldly, "I saw the diary you left behind and had some guesses in my heart."
"It seems that my guess is correct. The Mickens School has been destroyed for so many years, yet you have survived to this day."
"There is no King of Potions at all, or rather, the King of Potions has been assimilated by you, right?"
"For immortality, you really put in a lot of effort. When you first discovered the King of Potions, you already had the prototype of a plan, right? "
"The entire Michenxi Academy is your victim, including your pitiful apprentice, Eric."
Ma Wen stared at the Mana Vengeful Spirit. "Am I right?"
