However, what happened next left him a little confused.
Tang En glanced at it casually and asked, "Are there any alchemy or magic materials in there?"
"No, but there are some magic cores …"
"Give me the cores and take the rest."
"My Lord, there's a set of magic-iron armour here!"
"I know, but it's useless to me. You can keep it if you like."
Tang En took the cores and was about to leave.
"You really don't want it?"
"No."
"Then I'll take it!"
He immediately let out a sigh of relief and put on Kuripa's magic-iron armour. Although it wasn't tailor-made for him, its defence was much higher, so he didn't care too much about it.
"By the way, why are you here, My Lord? If necessary, we can work together."
"No need. I'm going to Glittering Lake to get some elemental water. Have you investigated that place?"
"Glittering Lake?"
"Oh, yes, there are water elementals there … We passed by there a few days ago, but we didn't investigate carefully because of the water elementals. We left after we didn't find any traces of the necromancer."
"It's good that there are water elementals."
Tang En nodded. "Then you can continue to track the necromancer. We'll go to Glittering Lake now."
"My Lord, do you really not need any help?"
"Do you think I need it?"
He was speechless.
"I wish you all the best."
Tang En and Elijah waved at them and went into the forest.
"Leader, the lord of Ellington is really a good person!"
Another member agreed. "Yes, I think we can develop in Ellington in the future."
"Yes …"
Locke agreed and said, "Everyone, keep your eyes peeled! We've already investigated the west. Let's go to the east and check. The necromancer must be nearby. Keep an eye out for any traces of necromancers! "
"Okay!"
On the other hand, Tang En and Elijah flew up again after a few steps into the forest.
"Elijah, were you afraid just now?"
Elijah shook her head. "I'm not afraid. With big brother here, Elijah is not afraid at all."
Tang En thought so too. In Prandal, the children here were used to killing and death since they were young. Although they would also feel afraid, compared to people on Earth, their ability to accept things was much stronger.
Very quickly, Tang En discovered that there was a beautiful reflection of light in the distant forest.
He had arrived at the Shining Lake.
The Glittering Lake, as the name suggested, was a place where one could see the bottom of the lake. The lake seemed to be rich in minerals, resulting in a large number of colorful crystals at the bottom of the lake. When the light of the Prandal sun shone on the lake, it would reflect a very beautiful color. It was even more beautiful and dreamy than the colorful ponds on Earth.
Furthermore, the Glittering Lake was said to have been formed by a drop of tear from the Goddess of the Earth, Nisclaire. With this background story, many couples in the game liked to come here to take pictures and videos as souvenirs. Tang En also had a deep impression of this place.
"What a beautiful light!"
Tang En smiled and landed near the Glittering Lake with Elijah, preparing to walk over.
When the light of the Glittering Lake suddenly appeared in their field of vision through the gaps of the trees, the impact was indescribable. It would definitely make Elijah very happy.
"Wow! What a cute little guy! "
Unexpectedly, as soon as they landed on the ground, Elijah's attention was attracted by a few small animals in the bushes nearby.
Tang En glanced at them and said, "Be careful. They are not as cute as they look."
What appeared in the nearby bushes was a kind of low-level magic beast called Ladya, or Ladya Beast. The name Ladya Hills and Ladya Forest came from this kind of magic beast. They bred in large numbers in the vicinity and were the overlords of the area.
Ladya Beasts were generally between Grade 1 and Grade 3. When they reached adulthood, their strength would reach the pinnacle of Grade 3. They looked very much like rabbits on Earth, but they were more fluffy and cute.
They were also very good at using their cute appearance to lure their prey. Once the prey fell into their trap and entered their attack range, they would instantly transform. Their body size would skyrocket by ten times, and they would turn from a cute fluffy rabbit into a terrifying hunter with fangs.
This was a magical world. Wasn't it normal for rabbits to go berserk?
According to Prandal historical records, the predecessor of the Ladya Beast was actually a harmless furball. It was very gentle and was very popular as a pet. However, after the first war of the Chaos Invasion, perhaps due to the influence of the magic tide, the furball gradually mutated into Ladya Beasts. Their aggressiveness increased greatly, and no one treated them as pets anymore.
The original furball was even rarer now. It was said that there were only some in the Emerald Forest and near the elven territory.
However, Tang En's reminder was a little too late. Elijah's hand had already reached out to the Ladya Beasts.
The next moment, the furry Ladya with big watery eyes suddenly swelled rapidly, revealing their big mouths full of fine sharp teeth as they tried to bite Elijah.
"How dare you!"
Tang En snorted coldly. With a flash of his sword, the Ladya Beasts were cut into pieces.
"So pitiful …"
Although Elijah was shocked, the Ladya Beasts were so cute that she was reluctant to part with them.
"It's okay. When I have the chance in the future, I'll catch two furballs for you as pets. They'll be even cuter."
Tang En said as he picked up the inferior magic cores on the ground. Although the magic reserves of inferior magic cores were very small, they were still meat. Since he had already killed them, of course, he would not waste them.
But when Tang En picked up the magic cores and checked them, he frowned.
These magic cores of the Ladya Beasts were contaminated.
The contamination of the power of chaos.
"How is this possible …"
Tang En frowned. The fact that the magic cores were contaminated proved that the Ladya Beasts had recently absorbed contaminated magic, which meant that there might be a Chaos Gate nearby.
But if there really was a Chaos Gate, the nearby vegetation, beasts, magic, and even elements would be contaminated …
Thinking of this, Tang En could not help but feel nervous. He pulled Elijah and rushed to the Glittering Lake.
"F * ck!"
After Tang En saw the situation on the Glittering Lake up close, he could not help but curse in exasperation.
Many of the water elements on the lake had been contaminated by the power of chaos. Those dark water elements had turned into crazy chaotic creatures.
At this moment, the Glittering Lake seemed to have become a chessboard. The black and blue water elements were the chess pieces on it, and they were fighting each other.
And it was obvious that the pure water elements were no match for the power of chaos. Their purification power could not keep up with the erosion speed of the power of chaos. After being hit by the contaminated water elements, many water elements quickly turned black and turned to deal with their original companions.
The lake was extremely chaotic. Water arrows flew all over the sky. From time to time, some water arrows flew past Tang En and directly pierced the big stones by the lake.
The Chaos Gate was probably the most common manifestation of the power of chaos in Prandal. The Ladya Forest was a relatively peaceful area. There were almost no records of a Chaos Gate being opened. Tang En felt that his luck was off the charts.
Tang En took a closer look. Just a hundred meters away, there was a Gate of Chaos emitting a dim light quietly standing on the shore. The strange dim light radiated the surrounding trees and lake water. The water elements nearby were obviously more dangerous than those far away. From time to time, there would be dark-purple lightning bursting around the ink-black body.
The trees withered, the lake turned black, and a strange aura spread in all directions.
"… The scale is too small. Unfortunately, there are not enough sacrifices …"
The voice that came with the wind made Tang En freeze in place.
There's … someone at the Chaos Gate!?
Looking at the Chaos Gate that was emitting an extremely dangerous aura, Tang En could not help but want to curse.
In Prandal, all creatures of order knew how dangerous the Chaos Gate was. But this guy in a black cloak was actually trying to control the Chaos Gate!?
Wasn't this the same as wanting to die faster?
At this time, the person standing near the Chaos Gate also noticed Tang En and Elijah. "Since you're here … don't leave … the power of the living is not enough …"
His figure drifted along with his voice. When he finished speaking, the person had already appeared in front of Tang En.
"The Serpent of Darkness? Or the Chaos religion? "
Before Tang En's time travel, only these two crazy organizations in the game would pursue the power of chaos. But compared to the fanatics of the Chaos religion who directly worshipped chaos, the Serpent of Darkness was more normal. They hated chaos, but they had always been trying to control the power of chaos. They were simply a group of lunatics.
The person paused for a moment and seemed a little surprised. He looked back at Tang En and his hoarse voice was full of surprise. "You know about us, the Serpent of Darkness? You've surprised me … "
After speaking, the guy looked at Tang En again. "… But you can still maintain your consciousness so close to the Chaos Gate. It seems that you do have some secrets …"
Tang En raised his eyebrows and sneered, "I've dealt with the Chaos Gate many times more than you. Is this small Chaos Gate worthy of making me nervous?"
The mysterious person was silent for a moment. Then, he laughed coldly with a hoarse voice, "… Haha … Arrogant people who don't know what you're talking about … Since that's the case, I'll let you become a part of the Chaos Gate … Dark Swamp!"
The mysterious man's hand had completed the casting action. A dark breath shrouded the ground under Tang En and Elijah's feet. The sticky power of the Dark Swamp could firmly suck people's feet to the ground, greatly affecting their mobility.
The next move was the real killing move.
"Shadow Ray!"
A gray ray shot from the mysterious man's fingertips to Tang En!
