The forest gradually became dark and gloomy.
Lin Sheng slowly moved forward, following the barren road that was opened up by the predecessors, not stopping at all as he approached the capital's giant tree.
He did not fly anymore, but instead walked after landing, slowly observing the surroundings.
"After all, this is an investigation, there's no point in running too fast."
Lin Sheng casually released a floating cannon, letting it fly to the right side of the dense forest to investigate the situation.
Ugh …
Ugh …
Suddenly, on the black withered grass at the bend in front of him, a dark and skinny figure in ragged clothes squatted.
The figure seemed to be a man, with his back facing Lin Sheng, making strange sounds, holding something short and sharp in his hand, constantly digging the ground.
As if hearing Lin Sheng's footsteps, this mysterious man slowly turned his head, revealing a rotten, blackened face with one eye missing.
"Zombie?" Lin Sheng frowned.
Seems like not all undead creatures are as white, tender, and clean as skeletons.
Just the bones are so clean, yet there's still so much flesh left, isn't this disgusting?
Lin Sheng shook his head slightly, a black spherical floating cannon beside him automatically fired a crimson ray, accurately landing on the zombie's face.
Whoosh!
The entire zombie instantly burst into flames. It let out a hissing sound like air leaking. Soon, it melted, turning into a puddle of black liquid, collapsing to the ground.
If there was one, there would be a second.
As Lin Sheng continued forward, the number of zombies he encountered increased. These low-level undead creatures were numerous and easy to create.
Fortunately, Lin Sheng had a self-made Arcane Floating Cannon, or else with just the few spell slots of a Level 4 Mage, let alone reaching here. In front of the walking corpses, they would be exhausted.
As he continued forward, the surrounding forest became darker and darker. It was morning, when the sun was the most dazzling, but it was as dark as night, almost to the point where he could not even see his fingers in front of him.
The floating cannon released light beside Lin Sheng, illuminating a small circular area for him to move forward.
As he continued forward, the surrounding air became colder, faint greyish-white blurry objects flashed past him.
"Alright, let's stop here."
When he was about to reach the foot of the capital's giant tree. Two tall figures slowly appeared behind Lin Sheng.
One was the bald, muscular man, Henry, and the other was the Impaler, Keressa.
Both of their clothes were covered with a layer of dark membrane.
"Are you talking to me?" Lin Sheng turned around in surprise and saw the two of them.
Although he was in a good mood to meet two living people like himself in this deathly silent place.
But the premise was that these two people were not specifically targeting him.
"Of course, there's only you and us here. If I'm not talking to you, do you think I'm talking to a ghost?" Baldy Harry raised his eyebrows and said coldly.
"Alright, enough nonsense. Let's get rid of him. We still have to hurry on with our journey, "Karesha said calmly.
"So, you're here to kill me?" Lin Sheng looked at the two of them carefully, white dots of data flashing in his eyes from time to time.
Truly … unimaginable talent …!!
On the surface, Lin Sheng's expression was slightly fearful, but in his heart, he could barely contain the joy in his heart. He was about to laugh out loud.
Just when he needed help the most, the heavens had sent two talented geniuses with excellent talent to his needs.
It was like a wrapped gift box with a layer of bow on the outside. It looked delicious and tempting.
Just like two extremely tempting apples …
"Xiao Ping … Sirs … May I ask who sent you here?"
Can you send a few more?
Lin Sheng added in his heart as he inched forward without batting an eyelid.
He did not know why.
Baldy Harry felt that the genius wizard in front of him was looking at them strangely.
On the surface, he looked like he was afraid, but in reality … there was something strange about that look.
It was like … Like a hungry homeless man who had been eating tree bark to survive suddenly seeing a table full of delicious food.
What kind of description was that?
The bald man shook his head to get rid of this ridiculous thought.
He had to act quickly to prevent any more trouble.
But what he did not know was that Carlesha, who was beside him, also had the same strange feeling.
As assassins, they were born with extremely sharp intuition.
If it were any other profession, they might not have been able to detect Lin Sheng's hidden emotions so easily.
Carlesha only felt that the genius wizard in front of them seemed to be more anxious than them to act. Under that fearful expression, there was a subtle feeling that he was afraid that they would run away.
"Can I ask who sent you to kill me?" Lin Sheng repeated. "Let me know before I die, at least I won't turn into a vengeful spirit to harass you. Isn't that right? "
"No comment." Baldy Harry decided not to waste his breath. His intuition kept warning him that there was no time to lose. If he delayed any longer, something unexpected might happen.
He slowly put on the black leather gloves and flexed his fingers. These gloves were made from the skin of a Loathsome Dragon, which had a powerful ability to break spells. Even a high-ranked wizard's defensive spell could be broken in one blow.
In order to deal with the strange feeling in his heart, Baldy Harry decided to listen to his instincts and go all out against his target.
"Don't blame me, if you want to blame someone, blame yourself for … Blame yourself for being too talented …" Before Baldy could finish his sentence, he suddenly heard a low whisper in his ear.
His hair stood on end, and goosebumps appeared all over his body. He quickly flipped forward.
"Shadow Leap!!" A shadow spell that only high-ranked assassins could cast was instantly released. His body quickly disappeared into the shadows underground.
"Spell Counterspell, thirteen layers."
Lin Sheng's body slowly appeared where Baldy had been standing. His hands were hanging by his side, and he smiled as he stood quietly. His eyes flashed with countless white fluorescent lights that represented data.
Thirteen Arcane Floating Cannons appeared from the darkness in all directions at the same time. The cannons simultaneously released circles of invisible force fields that looked like ripples.
Baldy Harry had just jumped into the Shadow Plane, and before he could close the plane gap, he was immediately pulled back by a huge counterforce.
The huge force field instantly disrupted the shadow power around him, forcing him to exit his Shadow Leap state and return to the main plane.
"Pfft!"
Baldy Harry's figure had just appeared, and he half-knelt on the ground as he spat out a mouthful of blood from his lungs.
He suddenly raised his head. Lin Sheng was right in front of him, looking down at him from above. There was a creepy smile on his face.
"Don't be afraid. If you cooperate, you won't die. "
"Hum!!"
In an instant, a large number of layers of spell shields appeared around Baldy. There were Magician's Hand force fields, Dark Binding Spell, Human Control Spell, and dozens of other control spells.
Baldy was just about to resist, but he suddenly froze.
He swallowed his saliva, and from the corner of his eye, he saw his companion, Carlesha, who was behind Lin Sheng, covered in blood. His chest was almost caved in.
In that short instant, Carlesha actually … He didn't even hear anything …
