The surrounding white fog was dissipating little by little, and the scene in front of Lu Yu began to become clear.
Before he could clearly see the outline of things in the distance, Lu Yu's skin felt unusually cool, as if a clear spring was flowing on his exposed skin.
Lu Yu, who was on alert, subconsciously began to activate the magic power. As the magic power flowed, Lu Yu was stunned.
The mist demon floating above Lu Yu's head looked around, and she was extremely shocked when she turned into a human: "What's going on here..."
"As I said, the magic power in this place is far beyond imagination. I have never seen a place with such rich magic power." Lulu said, "If this place is known to other magicians, it will definitely cause a huge sensation. When the time comes, um...it seems to have arrived.”
Lulu's sudden stop aroused everyone's curiosity, but they didn't bother to ask, because the moonlight falling from the sky was like mercury pouring down, outlining every contour of the coast.
There are no strange and rugged rocks, but an open beach in front of you. The sound of waves washing on the beach enters everyone's ears. The "swish" sound of the ebb and flow seems to welcome every sailor who is drifting on the sea. Go up here.
Lulu stopped Lu Yu from trying to get off the boat, and she threw a ball of light into the sky.
Lu Yu didn't even realize that she had mobilized her magic power until she finished casting the spell.
The hazy moonlight was covered by the warm yellow light released by the light ball. Lulu's eyes searched around the beach bit by bit, and then she was the first to get off the boat.
Stepping on the soft sand, she stamped her feet vigorously before signaling for everyone to follow.
Sigrid followed Lu Yu's order and dragged the boat to the beach. In order to prevent the rising tide from dragging the boat back into the sea, it was fixed with sand and stones condensed with magic power. After completing all this, Lulu, who was exploring forward, also left. return.
"We didn't see the castle that Anna mentioned. This place is much bigger than we imagined."
The ground here is covered with a light layer of green, and these thriving grasses are no different from the weeds in the outside world. It seems that the unusually abundant magic power has not allowed them to evolve more wonderfully.
The mist demon floated into the air and moved forward for a certain distance along the route guided by Lulu. With the moonlight and Lulu's ball of light, no signs of active life were found around it.
It was a spring day, the weather was so good, there were lush woods in the distance, and green grass beneath their feet, but the group could not find a single insect.
There are no insects and flies that will come out and buzz around you when you step on the grass, and there are no moths and butterflies that only come out at night to dance with the flowers.
Except for the sound of Lu Yu and others stepping on the grass as they walked, it was quiet.
Lulu suddenly stopped and stretched out her hand to stop everyone.
The mist demon floating in mid-air to create a path turned into a finger, pointed at the forest not far away, and whispered: "Something is moving."
The group held their breath and gradually heard footsteps echoing in the mountains and forests.
If there are footsteps, then they are not the undead or resentful spirits as previously suspected, and the pace can be confirmed to be human.
After a while, a man came out of the forest.
He was shirtless and wearing brown linen shorts. He had a fishing rod on his shoulder and a wooden bucket in his hand. He looked like he was looking for a place to fish.
Lu Yu was stunned by this man dressed as a fisherman. Could it be that the people who were in trouble here survived and thrived smoothly?
The same confusion also breeds in the minds of others. With curiosity, everyone gets closer to this fisherman who is bathed in moonlight and whose destination seems to be the seaside.
This was supposed to be a two-way trip, but Lu Yu suddenly felt something was wrong.
He called out to Sigrid who was about to say hello, and slowly led everyone back.
"Why didn't this person react at all?" Lulu frowned, "Even if you have night blindness, you should be able to see us from this distance. Even if you can't see it, you can still hear the sound."
The fisherman continued walking minding his own business. Because there was something wrong with the angle of the light ball released by Lulu, he could not see the expression on the face of the fisherman who turned a blind eye to them.
In order to clear up the doubts, with Lu Yu's permission, the fog demon floated to the fisherman with a ball of light.
The ball of light illuminated the rough, dark face of the fisherman, which is one of the characteristics of long-term contact with the sea. Strong sunlight and long-term exposure to sea water will make their skin quality extremely poor and appear old.
The fisherman's eyes were shiny and blinking normally. The mist demon could even see himself and the ball of light reflected in the fisherman's eyes.
However, the fisherman just bumped into them, pushed the ball of light away, and continued toward the beach as if he couldn't see them.
The mist demon was stunned. She looked at the ball of light that was still emitting warm yellow light, then at herself who had transformed into a human form, and finally turned her sights on Lu Yu.
Lu Yu quickly caught up with him and watched the fisherman walk to the beach. He found the bamboo raft hidden under a pile of sand and stones. He held the bamboo raft and floated out. Then he chose a position to throw the pole and fish. , done in one go.
"What's going on..." Lu Yu didn't have enough brain power, so he could only throw the questions raised by the fog demon to Lulu.
The corner of Lulu's mouth twitched: "I don't know, it seems... that fisherman can't see us?"
The unexplainable encounter cast a shadow over everyone's hearts. They could only ignore this strange fisherman for the time being and choose to follow his trail.
According to the footprints left by the fisherman, Lu Yu did not wander around like a headless fly when he got into the forest, but new questions also followed.
It was so quiet.
If the lack of insects just now can be explained by the fact that we were close to the sea and the sea breeze was too strong, then it would be too strange to enter the mountain forest where the vegetation is soaring and hear neither the chirping of insects nor the movement of wild animals.
Seeing a hole in a tree, Lu Yu kicked it hard, expecting a squirrel or something else to run out in a panic, but he only saw leaves falling.
Lulu would stop for a moment every time she walked, and seriously feel the magic everywhere.
Just as she had guessed, the magic power in this barrier was frighteningly strong no matter where it was. It was at least several times higher than the normal magic power in the outside world.
In this place, Lulu even felt that she could try to use some high-level magic that was only imagined due to the environment.
As soon as this thought came out, Lulu's eyes suddenly widened.
"This...is this the next stage of the world?"
Lulu's muttering was heard by everyone in the quiet environment.
"What's the meaning?"
"Didn't Huogu say that the magic power in this world is gradually getting stronger? When the magic power first appeared, the magic power was very thin, so there were only a few races that sensed the magic power and evolved. But as time goes by, The magic power is getting stronger and stronger, and the number of races is also increasing.”
"Barriers that determine the types of magic and the upper limit of magic do exist. The fact that most of the magic that exists in the imagination cannot be realized is not because everyone cannot construct it, but because it is impossible to use it due to environmental restrictions."
"For example, after the long-distance teleportation circle is created, it will consume a lot of magic power every time it is opened, and maintenance also requires a lot of magic power. The high cost means that even if such a convenient magic circle exists, the four major countries of Mera Continent will not easily Use, this is an extremely luxurious object from manufacturing to maintenance to use.”
"Another example is the storage space you talked about before. The essence of the storage space is that the magic power flowing to maintain the storage is greater than the speed of external replenishment. Therefore, the magician can only create a barely usable finished product in a way that meets the current magic power intensity. Of course, you are right to say that this is a semi-finished product, after all, the mainstream magic circles have confirmed that the current storage magic is very inconsistent and cannot be considered a success."
When it came to the teleportation circle, Lu Yu actually understood it.
In fact, it is an energy issue.
If magic is compared to energy, and magic is an industrial product made from various energy sources, then the amount of energy will determine the design and application ideas of the industrial product.
A magician is like a cook. When the only ingredient is cabbage, stir-fried cabbage is a good choice.
It's not that magicians are incapable of making dishes other than stir-fried cabbage, it's just that the materials don't allow them to have a higher operating space.
At this time, if the ingredients are a little more abundant, ham, old hens, pork knuckles, etc. can be provided. Faced with such abundant conditions, the magician can naturally try to make boiled cabbage.
Same with magic.
When the magic power is sufficient, the ideas will be more refined, the power will be more astonishing, and the effects will be more outstanding. There will be a basis for the birth and existence of high-level magic.
On this basis, the major races that feel magic and can use magic will correspondingly achieve greater growth.
Lulu was so excited that she opened her arms as if to embrace the barrier.
Lu Yu can understand her mood. A person who hopes to become a great magician sees the possibility of a big explosion of magic. It should be like him squatting and watching the conferences of major manufacturers during the game shortage, looking at those outstanding talents. After watching the game trailer, I began to imagine the wonderful scenes when I actually operate it.
But Lu Yu had to let her calm down first, because she seemed to have forgotten something important.
"After we came in, it seems we haven't found any trace of Sera."
Lulu, who was traveling amidst the grand explosion of magic, returned to reality and suppressed the smile on her face.
Thinking of Sera, Lulu sighed: "This stinky rabbit doesn't know how to leave me a message. It seems quite big. How on earth can I find you..."
"Rustling."
The sound of swaying grass blades made Lu Yu's ears twitch slightly.
The change happened so fast. Before anyone could react, a black shadow jumped out of the grass not far away and pounced on Sigrid, who was closest to him, like a hungry wolf.
Sigrid subconsciously raised her hand, and the black shadow bit Sigrid's clenched fist impartially. The sharp teeth were deeply embedded in her flesh and blood, and the tips of the teeth even hit her finger bones. The fierce force seemed to break Sigrid's fingers.
The splashing blood instantly dyed Sigrid's vision red, and the severe pain made her go crazy.
Even though her dominant right hand was bitten, Sigrid still punched fiercely with her left fist. The speed was so fast that the black shadow had nowhere to hide. It was hit solidly in the face and flew backwards.
The sharp teeth embedded deeply in Sigrid's fist also took away a piece of flesh and blood when they parted. The pain was so painful that Sigrid could no longer bear it and cried out.
In the silent mountain forest, the sound spread far away. In the echo, Sigrid's voice was dragged and stretched, becoming terrifying and eerie.
The ball of light rose up, illuminating the appearance of the monster crawling on the ground.
This was a person crawling on the ground with all four limbs. He moved very fast. After taking a punch from Sigrid, he turned like a spider after landing, holding the torn piece of flesh in his mouth and retreating quickly back.
His mouth was dripping with blood, and the eyes staring at Lu Yu were dark without any white.
He quickly devoured Sigrid's flesh and blood without even catching a strand, and grinned from ear to ear. In that terrifying bloody mouth, every tooth was like a polished knife, extremely sharp.
It’s hard to imagine that these are the kind of teeth a person can have. A normal person would definitely scratch his or her lips until they bleed!
The mist demon quickly found bandages and potions from the earth element bowl that came with it, intending to treat Sigrid's wounds.
However, Sigrid roared like a wild beast.
"You...monster!"
Before she could stop him in time, Sigrid shot out, clenching her bloody right hand into a fist and punching the monster on the head.
The monster obviously underestimated the explosive power of a half-dragon. Sigrid smashed his head into the ground before he even had time to dodge.
Lu Yu's scalp felt numb.
It was not because of Sigrid's violent blow, but because after the monster was hit hard by Sigrid, its head had sunk deep into the ground, but its lower body was still kicking hard and digging into the ground.
His neck was deformed by the blow, and his head was buried in the ground. This guy was not dead yet. His strong vitality forced him to pull his head out from the ground and staggered backwards. Shrink.
"Fuck, what the hell is this!"
Lu Yu was furious.
We have seen a lot of weird toys that came to this world, but in the final analysis, they are all "alien". However, the "person" in front of us shows explosive power and vitality that are completely inconsistent with the human body structure.
He rotated his head, which had begun to loosen, turning left and right, keeping his eyes on Sigrid, leaving her with no chance to step forward to finish the attack.
With a few "clicks", the man unexpectedly returned to his appearance before the attack. Except for a big dent in his head caused by Sigrid's blow, there seemed to be no problem...
His mouth curled up slightly, and a terrifying smile emerged little by little.
Without pausing for a moment, he used his hands and feet to attack Sigrid again.
