Chapter 217 Wrath of the Forest Spirit
It is a high-quality skin with life tasks and talents at the same time!
Talent has nothing to say. It increases the success rate of divination, but it will decrease with the number of times, and can even be reduced to a negative value. That is to say, there is an upper limit to the number of times of divination per day, and it will fail 100% after the twelfth time.
As for the lifespan task, seven times a week is about the same as once a day, but if you want to complete this task, you need to learn divination first. In addition, there is a geographical restriction. You must do divination in the astral world to gain lifespan.
After the skin was fused, the corpse of the woman on the ground disappeared, leaving only the crystal ball.
Mu You picked up the crystal ball and looked at it.
【An ordinary crystal ball can slightly increase the success rate of divination and reduce the mana consumption of divination. 】
This crystal ball is an excellent prop in terms of color, and its effect is average, but it is a necessity for divination. Just like writing requires a pen, divination also requires divination props.
What surprised Mu You was that the fortune teller only had this crystal ball left on him, and could not find any other props... Could it be that they were all thrown into the brazier?
Mu You got up and went to the brazier of the altar to take a look. There was already a basin of ashes inside, and occasionally some corners similar to cards could be seen.
"Is it really burned..."
Mu You shook his head regretfully, it’s okay to burn other things, that deck of tarot cards is a good thing, each card has a small ability sealed in it, at least it can be regarded as an epic prop at the very least, the result It just burned...
Just as he was feeling sorry, there was a sudden thumping sound from the side.
Mu You subconsciously turned his head to look, and saw a crow flying out from the edge of the stone table, holding a card in its mouth, and throwing it into his hand, then flew to land on his other shoulder unceremoniously, and started Comb the feathers on your own.
Mu You was taken aback for a moment, then looked at the card in his hand.
This is a tarot card with the face of 'Hermit'.
【Hermit card: After activation, it can make itself invisible, and it will fall into a deep invisible state when it is still. 】
I didn’t expect to have one left...
Mu You glanced at the crow on his shoulder again.
This crow is obviously the one that showed him the way in the game. It is Vivienne's familiar and her former host. Unexpectedly, it also hid in the enchantment in advance, and knew to bring the hermit The cards are hidden...
By the way, these Tarot cards should not be burned by crows, right?
Mu You suddenly thought of this possibility.
From this point of view, his deduction just now may be wrong. The fortune teller may have been dead for many days, but the crow took away the treasures from her in order to keep the formation of the barrier, and kept throwing it into the brazier to maintain it. Enchantment.
No matter what, it's all burnt out anyway. The value of the remaining hermit card is not too high, and it has one more invisibility ability than the invisibility cloak.
Mu You put away the card, left the barrier, and continued to follow Vivienne's guidance.
After walking forward for a few miles, the forest ahead changed again.
Mu You waited patiently. After all the transfer of terrain stopped, when he looked up again, a stone platform appeared on the open space in front of him. On the stone platform was a huge scale.
This was obviously the fifth trial in the game at that time. The scales containing the scrolls of black magic could only pick something from one side, and after taking something away, they needed to put back something of equivalent value to keep the two sides in balance.
At that time, there were a total of four scrolls in the scale, one side was the forbidden curse black magic called 'Meteor Falling', and the other side was 'Golden Touch', 'Rejuvenation' and 'Little Fireball'.
Mu You didn't have many things on his body at the time. He only took away the rejuvenation and the little fireball, and put some sundries back to keep the balance between the two sides.
However, seeing the balance again at this time, the two ends of the balance have lost their balance. In the tray on one side, the "Golden Touching Hand" scroll disappeared, causing the balance to tilt towards the other side to the bottom.
And tens of meters away from the stone platform, there is still a golden statue of a golden statue. The statue is an ugly man with pimples and sores all over his body, but only half of his body is human, and the other half of his body is human. It has been infected by black magic and turned into a twisted and rotten monster.
At this moment, the man showed a terrified expression on his face, holding a wand in his hand, but the tip of the wand was aimed at himself.
Seeing this statue, a name immediately popped up in Mu You's mind: the crazy pharmacist, the crazy pharmacist who met in the second stage of the trial, used himself as a hotbed to test medicine, and turned himself into a pharmacist. It looks neither human nor ghost.
Combined with the current scene, Mu You also quickly guessed what happened here.
After Vivienne was summoned by him to leave with the spirit summoning ceremony, the pharmacist may have seen that the Black Forest was out of supervision, so he became greedy and set his sights on the treasure on the balance, but he didn't know the rules of the balance , After stealing some golden hands, the balance was out of balance, he fell into a state of loss of control, and his body began to mutate.
Before completely losing his mind and turning into a monster, the pharmacist had to use a golden hand on himself in order to stop losing control.
As a result, he himself turned into a stone statue, and the Golden Hand disappeared completely with his death...
"What a waste of money..."
Mu You shook his head helplessly, what a practical spell, he was rushed away just like that.
Immediately, Mu You walked to the balance, picked up the only remaining scroll, and put some sundries on it, restoring the balance to the balance.
This is the only black magic at the forbidden level that Mu You knows so far!
The power of black magic itself is more than two grades higher than ordinary magic, and black magic of the forbidden level can be said to be the most powerful spell that can be created by humans!
This is a means that can truly destroy the world. Mu You can't even imagine how much damage this spell will cause.
This kind of spell, of course, can’t be used indiscriminately, and it can’t even be exchanged with others in the Secret Arts Association. It’s better to keep this kind of nuclear weapon in the magical world only in your own hands.
Carefully put away the scroll, Mu You raised his head and looked forward.
After the scale of the fifth level in the game, next to it is the cabin in the forest where Vivienne is.
Mu You left the stone platform and walked forward for a while.
Sure enough, the forest ahead began to change rapidly again. After a while, a new path appeared, and at the end of the path, a house hidden deep in the forest was faintly visible.
Mu You quickly approached the hut, stepped forward and pushed open the door.
The interior of the hut seems to have been subjected to some kind of space expansion magic, and the interior space is much larger than it looks.
However, the hut was empty at this time, and there was no burning frame as described in the game, let alone Vivienne's body.
Mu You was about to walk into the house to have a better look, when the ground was suddenly shaken by unknown energy.
A huge wooden palm broke out from the ground, grabbed the whole house in an instant, and then pulled the house and people into the ground with a bang.
The house was instantly shattered, and the planks, gravel, and sand were flying. Mu You hurriedly used a strong wind to blow away all the falling objects around him.
After a few seconds of feeling of falling, he finally landed in a crypt tens of meters deep from the ground.
The ground floor is covered with spore **** and colorful mushroom bushes. In the soil layer above the head, there are countless plant roots, large and small. There are also countless purple luminous stones dotted in it, illuminating the underground environment.
In the faint purple light, Mu You finally saw the burning frame placed in an open space in front, on which a dead witch was restrained with rattan and thorns.
But unlike the aging and dryness imagined, Vivienne's body on the torture rack at this moment not only shows no signs of aging, but maintains a youthful appearance, even the body, except that it is a little skinny due to the excessive passing of energy, the appearance His skin actually maintained the complexion of a living person, as if he had just fallen asleep.
Beside the burning frame, there is a clear spring full of vitality. You can feel the vitality coming from it even if you are far away from it.
【Fountain of Youth: Creatures within ten meters of the spring will continue to recover their health and stop the loss of life and aging of life. 】
A spring that can stop aging, this should be the reason why Vivienne's body has remained uncorrupted for hundreds of years.
At this moment, in this spring water, a giant plant creature with a height of six or seven meters is soaking, with purple skin, red eyes, and branches and roots of trees all over its body. It looks like an elk, with a pair of huge and The extremely branched antlers extend all the way into the soil layer above.
Mu You noticed that the vines and thorns wrapped around the stake were all grown from this creature, so he hurriedly checked it with the Omniscient Crystal.
[Spirit of the Forest: Spirit of the forest, a spirit body composed of pure wood elements, can transform into any form freely, can only be born in places with extremely strong wood and life energy, and has the ability to absorb and digest various toxins and pollution Ability is the 'lung of the earth' in the astral world. 】
【Forest Spirit (chaotic state), level? ? ? 】
Sure enough, this is the legendary 'Forest Spirit', whose level cannot even be detected by the Omniscient Crystal.
At this moment, the red-eyed Forest Spirit, which is in a state of madness, has black air constantly emerging from its body surface, pouring into the ground through its root system, until it spreads to the entire Black Forest.
Spirit obviously couldn't control the overflow of black air, it turned its head with a painful expression, and glanced at Mu You, its eyes quickly shifted to Canary on his shoulder.
"A familiar smell..."
Spirit made chaotic voices, overlapping one after another, as if the melody came from the void: "Antheni Vivienne, are you here to fulfill your promise?"
"No, I'm here to retrieve my body..." Vivian said.
"Liar!!" roared deafeningly.
Spirit seemed to be completely enraged by this sentence, his eyes turned scarlet like blood, and the black air on his body overflowed even more violently.
"You are the most vicious liar in the world. You broke your promise. I became what I am now, all because of you!"
As soon as the words fell, a huge wooden palm gushed out from the soil layer, as if carrying boundless resentment, it fanned towards Mu You.
Mu You hurriedly jumped back to dodge.
Fortunately, the forest spirit is in a state of confusion right now, and its consciousness is not clear enough, as if drunk, its two huge wooden palms are waving wildly, but its aim is very misaligned.
Mu You withdrew more than ten meters after a row, jumped onto a high platform, and finally got away from the attacking range of Sen Ling.
Seeing that Sen Ling was still furious in the distance, Mu You looked at Vivienne strangely: "What's going on? It doesn't seem to like you very much?"
Mu You had seen the spirit guarding Vivian's body with all his heart and soul for nearly a hundred years, and thought that Vivian had already tamed the spirit, and the two of them should be friends or something.
But the fact is completely opposite. From Sen Ling's tone, only hatred and resentment can be heard. It seems that Vivienne has done something to it.
