Chapter 40
Alto said: "You know, little fellow, war is coming!"
Heath startled: "War?"
Al Tuo explained: "Someone in the dark tree sea broke the rules and refused to pay the taxes that should be paid. They also turned the apprentices who went to collect the taxes into toads and fed the reptiles."
"Wizards are right about this The matter was very angry. They decided to defend their authority with strength in accordance with tradition."
"Only magic can deal with magic."
Heath asked: "That wizard What is the organization?"
Alto said: "Red Devil's Blood, their human kingdom is next door to the Kingdom of Hiran. This is a rare opportunity, so prepare early."
"Wizards all like to recruit apprentices who are good at war. If you perform well in wars, you will have greater confidence when you compete for official apprenticeships in the future."
Speaking of which, Aalto lifted the feathers on his neck and hung a pocket watch underneath.
It opened the cover to check the time, and then said: "Thank you for your hospitality, but I think I have to go, there are still a few places to contact, we will see you again."
Heath nodded: "Farewell."
Alto flapped his wings and left soon.
Heath returned to the chair and sat down, leaning against the back of the chair, his left hand clenched into a fist to prop up his temple, and his right hand was placed on the table to gently buckle the table top.
He frowns pondered.
Would you like to participate in this war?
This is something that needs careful consideration...
...
The news revealed by Aalto made Heath greatly advance his purchase plan. After all, once the war starts, the situation will become turbulent. When the time comes, the market will definitely be affected, or even be shut down directly.
So on the 2nd day after meeting Aalto, Heath left Ridden City and went to the nearby wizard bazaar alone.
A few days later, west of the Kingdom of Hiran, the misty forest.
The Misty Forest is a forest on the west side of the Kingdom of Hiran. It has its name because it is covered by a thick layer of fog all day long.
"Squeak! Squeak!" The sound of the boots stepping on the soft road echoed.
A silhouette came slowly in the forest.
I was wearing a gray and black cloak, with a sly face mask on his face, and a cross sword slung around his waist. There was a mysterious smell from all over his body.
This mysterious person is naturally Heath.
He didn't intend to leave any probability to outsiders to hide his strength, so he deliberately disguised it on this journey.
I wore a mask and a cloak, and even my hair color was specially dyed golden with potion.
Walking on the sheep farm path made up of fallen leaves and floc, he turned his head and glanced around while walking forward.
This seems to be a very common forest, surrounded by cedar, arbor and other common trees.
But there is a thick layer of mist in the woods.
Apart from this In the woods, you can't hear the singing of birds and cicadas, let alone small animals.
The whole forest is very quiet, quiet and even a little hairy.
Heath is frowned, and the eyes under the mask reveal a puzzle: "Is the market really in this place? Why can't you see half of the ghost shadow?"
In the tower, there is a special map that records the wizard's market and is updated regularly. Heath prepared a special map when he left the tower.
According to the records on the map, the only wizard bazaar in the Kingdom of Hiran is in the Misty Forest.
I never thought that after I came here, it was such a desolate scene.
"Is there a problem with this map?"
Heath picked up the map and reconfirmed it again, but the result was still the same.
I was planning to release the ghost guard to increase the search area, but at this moment, there was a sudden noise in the distance.
"si si!si si!"
The sudden sound of such a sound in this deadly forest immediately made Heath vigilant.
He held down the cross sword and quickly stared in the direction of the sound.
But in the mist, a long silhouette crept up against the ground, it was a snake.
This is a common forest python, about five or six meters long, about the thickness of the thigh, and densely covered with scales.
While crawling forward, it spit out scarlet snake letter, the sound of si si just now came from here.
"Sen Python?" Heath was puzzled.
This is the first time he has seen anything other than him since he entered the forest. Before that, there was not even a fly here.
Heath drew the cross sword, ready to defend against the enemy.
But at this moment, the python suddenly opened his mouth and said something human: "Don't be nervous, strange apprentice."
Heath was taken aback.
Senman stopped ten steps away from him, coiled around his body, and raised his head high.
While spitting out the snake letter, it introduced to Heath: "I am Doro of the Mist Bazaar. I work for the wizards in the Mist Bazaar. This is my coat of arms."
Some of the scales on Sen python's abdomen suddenly lit up, forming a complicated pattern.
Heath glanced twice and quickly recognized the origin of this pattern, which was the coat of arms of the Mist Bazaar.
At this time, he also noticed that there were eye-like patterns on the dense scales of this snake. Through this unique pattern, he also recognized the identity of this snake.
This is a demon snake, and like the raven, it is also a kind of intelligent demonized creature.
He immediately put away the cross sword and saluted: "It's rude."
"It's okay."
The magic snake shook his big head, and then immediately Said: "I have been watching you for a long time, wandering alone, aimless walking around in the forest, I guess you are looking for the bazaar, is that right?"
Heath nodded: "It's not so easy here. Find it."
The magic snake said: "Yes, it is easy to get lost."
paused, it promotes: "So every new wizard will choose Hiring a guide, I think you should also need it, trust me, this can save you a lot of effort."
Heath asked: "What price should I pay?"
The magic snake said: "Two magic stones, you can hire Doro until you leave the market, how about it?"
"I can swear to the omnipotent Ba snake, you are in the market I can't find a guide that is cheaper and better than Doro."
Heath took out two magic stones and threw them over. He was fed up with this aimless search.
The magic snake's mouth swallowed two magic stones: "A wise decision."
Heath said: "Lead the way."
Snake said: "Of course."
The Bi Mo snake didn't mean to lead the way, but suddenly said: "Then, please knock on the tree first. You can knock on any tree around you. Five strokes, three strokes fast, and two slow strokes. You don't need much effort, just tap it lightly."
Heath doesn't know why, but he did it according to the words of the magic snake.
He walked to the nearest tree, raised his hand and gently tapped on the trunk.
The magic snake said: "I really envy animals with long hands like you. I don't need to hurt my brain every time I strike them."
Immediately, it Climbed to the tree and shouted with his mouth open: "In the name of Magnus, open the door!"
Magnus is a very famous wizard family in the old land continent, the mist set The market is undertaken by them.
"crash-bang!" The treetops shook for a while.
A tree hole suddenly appeared on the trunk, probably fist sized.
The devil said: "Okay, let's go in."
Heath was taken aback: "Go in? Did you mean from this tree hole?"
Do you have to bring your own shrinking potion when you go to the market? A tree hole of this size is afraid that only mice can get in, right?
I don’t know the magic snake said as it should be: "Otherwise?"
"Put your hands up and leave everything to magic."
Heath hesitated for a while, first spread his mental tentacles and scanned the tree hole.
There is energy response on it, but it is not at all offensive.
After confirming safety, Heath put his hand on the tree trunk.
As soon as his hand touched the tree trunk, Heath suddenly felt a huge suction coming from the tree hole.
Teared by this huge suction force, his body also twisted uncontrollably, turned into an irregular shape and sucked into the tree hole.
Heath immediately felt as if he had fallen into a slide. It seemed to be similar to the previous one in Cross Forest, but it was completely different.
This time there was a strong suction on the slide, and he was completely sucked and fell uncontrollably.
After sliding like this for a few seconds, Heath saw a flash, and also rolled out of a tree hole.
At this moment, he also came to a strange and magical place.
Heath could not help being stared wide-eyed.
Because he actually saw...
