Lao Huang suddenly spoke, which startled Zhang Ze, but he immediately calmed down and said, "So you've discovered it? I don't know why, but I got lost in the forest and couldn't get out."
Old Huang laughed, and it changed its position and lay down again, and said, "You must feel strange. You have been playing in this forest since you were a child, and you have traveled to almost every place. How can you still get lost?"
"Yeah, I'm weird too."
When Zhang Ze heard what Lao Huang said, he already had a suspicion in his heart. It was probably Lao Huang's fault.
He guessed right, it was Lao Huang.
"In order to prevent you from running out of the forest on your own, I cast a magic on you. When you leave the cabin far enough, you will be trapped in place and can no longer move forward unless you return to the cabin."
Lao Huang said slowly: "I hope you won't be angry. I am doing this to protect you."
"Okay, I understand..." Zhang Ze sighed helplessly. He had always known that Old Huang could do magic. Although these magics were not very powerful, they were very practical.
For example, you can use [Healing] when you are injured, you can use [Carrying] to carry heavy objects, you can use [Fire] when baking food, etc.
Apparently, it had also cast a special magic on him, with the purpose of making it impossible for him to leave here.
"Then when can I leave?"
After hearing Zhang Ze's question, Lao Huang thought about it seriously and said calmly: "As long as I think you are strong enough to protect yourself, I will let you leave."
In the days that followed, Zhang Ze stayed in the forest, practicing his [Advanced Summoning Technique].
Every day he hunts two forest blood lions and then combines them to see if any miracle can happen.
It's a pity that he continuously killed more than a hundred forest blood lions and synthesized them more than fifty times. The level of the new followers synthesized only three times was improved.
Others have either declined in grade or have remained unchanged.
During these operations, Zhang Ze discovered some new problems that Lao Huang had not told him before.
For example, the word "synthesize" will appear after the name of a synthesized follower, and such a follower cannot continue to be synthesized.
Zhang Ze guessed that the reason why Lao Huang didn't tell him everything might be because of some tests.
It hoped that Zhang Ze could discover these problems by himself, which could be regarded as a kind of exercise, so Zhang Ze did not blame Lao Huang.
However, Lao Huang began to complain about Zhang Ze: "Rakshasa, you can't continue killing like this, you will kill all the forest blood lions. If they become extinct, we will be hungry in the future. "
Zhang Ze actually noticed that these days, he spent more and more time looking for forest blood lions because the number of forest blood lions was getting smaller and smaller.
His previous crazy hunting had resulted in a sharp decline in the number of forest blood lions that were already small. If he continued like this, he might have exterminated them.
So for the sake of long-term development, Zhang Ze decided to suspend hunting and give these poor forest blood lions some time to recuperate.
It is not advisable to dry up swamps for fishing and burn forests for hunting. The sustainability of resources must be ensured.
Unknowingly, Zhang Ze has been in this demonic realm for a year. He has become completely accustomed to the life in front of him and his current identity.
However, he still did not remember his mission in his mind.
That is to leave the forest, find companions and a way to clear the level.
"I don't know if the time in the real world flows at the same speed as in this demonic realm, but I think there must be a difference between the two, just like the demonic realm of Xianxia."
Zhang Ze thought in his mind while picking a few ripe fruits from the tree.
"I'm going to ask Lao Huang again today to see if it can help me leave the forest."
Zhang Ze has already made plans. If Lao Huang still doesn't agree, he will challenge Lao Huang and use his own strength to prove that he can protect himself without Lao Huang's worries.
"Although Lao Huang can do magic, he is old and has difficulty moving. I am strong and possess the [Summoning Technique] and the Dragon Breath Technique. It should not be a big problem to deal with him."
Returning to the cabin, Zhang Ze put the fruit in his hand away and walked up to Lao Huang, intending to make his request.
Unexpectedly, Lao Huang spoke first: "I have been waiting for you to come back. Go and move the wooden bed away and dig underneath. There is a suitcase buried there. Bring it to me."
"Suitcase?" Zhang Ze was stunned for a moment, then followed Lao Huang's instructions, moved the wooden bed and dug out the soil underneath, and sure enough he found the old leather suitcase.
The suitcase is 30 centimeters long and 20 centimeters wide. It looks very old on the outside. It must be some years old. It is not heavy in the hand. Zhang Ze thinks there are not many things inside.
Bringing the suitcase to Lao Huang, Lao Huang gently rubbed the suitcase with his paws, with a nostalgic expression on his face.
Then he told Zhang Ze: "Take your suitcase and leave the forest to find the life you want to live."
Zhang Ze was suddenly surprised. He originally planned to have a showdown with Lao Huang, but Lao Huang actually brought it up first, which caught him off guard.
But what made him feel strange was that Lao Huang, who had always been opposed to his departure, suddenly agreed?
And what about this suitcase? What's inside? Why did Lao Huang give it to himself?
Lao Huang gave the answer: "This suitcase contains a diary and a key. You can learn about my past through the diary. Haven't you always been curious about how I turned into a dog? After reading this diary, you will Got it all.”
"There is also this key, which can open a safe in the Emperor's Bank of Metropolis. There is my life's wealth in it, and it all belongs to you now."
Zhang Ze frowned tightly. He felt vaguely that something was wrong, and asked in a deep voice: "Old Huang, why don't you come with me? Is something going to happen?"
Lao Huang laughed twice, waved his dog paw and said, "What are you thinking about? It's just because I'm used to living here and don't want to leave."
"Besides, you see, I am a one-eyed old dog now. I no longer have the energy and stamina to follow you outside. It's a burden for you to keep me with you, and you won't let me retire here quietly."
"But..." Zhang Ze wanted to say something else, but Lao Huang interrupted directly: "Young people don't want mothers-in-law. Let's leave quickly before I change my mind!"
Zhang Ze sighed slightly. In his memory, Lao Huang's decision would never change, so he gave up persuading him, bowed respectfully to Lao Huang, and then pushed away the door of the wooden house with his suitcase. door.
At this time, Lao Huang's voice sounded again: "If you leave, don't come back again. Otherwise, once I fall in love with you, I might not be able to let you go."
Zhang Ze curled his lips. Of course he knew that Old Huang said this to tell him not to look back.
Under Lao Huang's gaze, Zhang Ze stepped out of the wooden house, and the door closed behind him.
This time, Zhang Ze walked out of the forest smoothly. He knew in his heart that Old Huang must have secretly lifted the magic on him.
"Lao Huang's behavior today is too abnormal. Something must be happening..."
Zhang Ze stopped and looked back at the forest. After thinking for a while, he found a stone next to him and sat down, then opened his suitcase.
What caught his eye was a booklet with yellowed paper and a golden key.
Zhang Ze first opened the diary, and then slowly read it carefully.
From the lines in the diary, Zhang Ze learned about Lao Huang's past.
Lao Huang turned out to be an excellent killer. He had killed countless people during his decades of service to the organization.
Relying on his superb skills, he never missed the orders he received. As a result, he gained recognition from the organization and a lot of wealth.
However, Lao Huang also has a secret identity, that is, the Summoner.
However, this identity brought him fatal disaster.
Because summoning is a forbidden art in this world, the summoner is the spokesperson of evil.
People in this world believe that summoning can resurrect dead creatures, which is a blasphemy to the soul and life.
Therefore, summoners have been hated and hunted by people since ancient times.
Just like the witches in the European Middle Ages, the summoner has become a street rat, and everyone shouts to beat him.
Lao Huang has always been careful to protect his secrets and prevent others from knowing his true identity.
He is the last summoner in the world, and he cannot let this powerful profession be ruined for his generation.
However, fire cannot be contained in paper. During an assassination operation, he was accidentally surrounded by enemies. In order to escape, he was forced to use summoning.
As a result, this sowed the seeds of fatal disaster for him.
The organization soon learned of Lao Huang's identity as a summoner. The organization used this as a threat to force him to hand over his summoning training methods. At the same time, it forced him to sign a prostitution agreement with the organization and serve the organization for the rest of his life.
Of course Lao Huang didn't want to, so he defected from the organization and prepared to find a place to live in seclusion and say goodbye to his current life of licking blood from the edge of a knife.
But his every move has long been monitored by the organization, and a team of ten top killers attacked Lao Huang.
Although Lao Huang finally used the summoning technique to kill all ten people, he himself was seriously injured and on the verge of death.
Old Huang took a breath and fled to the cabin in the forest. This was the refuge he had prepared for himself.
Putting the diary and keys in the suitcase, Old Butter died in the house.
Before he died, the only thing that accompanied him was a big yellow dog he raised.
However, Lao Huang did not really die. Before he died, he cast one last magic on himself and exchanged his soul with his pet dog. Then, he obtained Lao Huang's body and survived.
Although Huang survived through the dog's body, he also lost his summoning skills...
This is the reason why Lao Huang changed from a human to a dog.
Afterwards, Lao Huang dragged his body to the forest and fed it to the forest blood lions. From then on, it lived alone in the hut until the appearance of Rakshasa.
The child he picked up was a complete accident, but Huang was very happy because it was no longer lonely. Watching the child grow up day by day, Huang regained hope for life.
It wants to impart everything it has to this child and let him become the last summoner in the world.
Lao Huang wrote at the end of his diary: "I know they will come to me one day. I just hope they don't hurt my child because he is innocent."
Seeing this, the entire diary ends.
Zhang Ze found that in the second half of the diary, when Huang turned into a dog, the writing in the diary became very sloppy. He guessed that this might have been written by Huang with a pen in his dog's mouth.
After closing the diary, Zhang Ze fell into silence. Then he dug a hole next to the stone, buried the suitcase in it, turned around and strode into the forest.
Yes, he is going to save Lao Huang.
Lao Huang is Zhang Ze's only relative in this world. Although Lao Huang does not exist in the real world, in the memory Zhang Ze obtained, he is Zhang Ze's only relative.
People's hearts are made of flesh, so Zhang Ze naturally couldn't just watch something happen to Lao Huang and ignore it.
"I currently have fifty followers in my summoning space, but only three are of A-grade quality, and the rest are of B-grade quality. Maybe they are no match for those enemies, but I am not a vegetarian either!"
Zhang Ze clenched the [Blood Dragon] in his hand, with a cold murderous intent in his eyes.
Relatives will always be his enemy. If anyone dares to touch them, he will definitely kill them!
With worries about Lao Huang, Zhang Ze ran all the way and finally arrived in front of the wooden house. The scene in front of him surprised him.
The entire cabin had been razed to the ground, and the daily necessities he and Lao Huang usually used were scattered everywhere.
Zhang Ze looked gloomy and looked for Lao Huang's figure in the ruins.
The wooden house turned into what it is now, which shows that the battle is very fierce, and Lao Huang is probably in danger, but Zhang Ze still has a glimmer of hope, he thinks Lao Huang is still alive.
After searching around, no old Huang's body was found, Zhang Ze breathed a sigh of relief.
"There is no body, which is good news. Maybe it is still alive..."
"But who did all this, and how did the other party find this place?"
Zhang Ze stood in front of the ruins of the wooden house with a silent expression on his face. Suddenly, he spoke.
"Come out, I know you've been staring at me."
After a while, the space behind him fluctuated, and a man in a black suit appeared out of thin air. He had a cold face and held a silver pistol in his hand.
Zhang Ze knew that this was definitely not an ordinary pistol, but a pistol that could fire magic bullets.
The man raised his pistol and aimed at Zhang Ze, and asked coldly: "Tell me, what is your relationship with Lao Huang? Did he give you anything?"
Zhang Ze turned around and looked at the man, snorting coldly: "Old Huang is my family, where did you take him? Tell me now and I can spare your life."
"Haha, boy, you are so arrogant!"
The man in black laughed disdainfully and said, "You probably don't know who I am. I am the... killer of Skull Tower."
At this point, he paused because he found that he was surrounded by a group of ferocious monsters.
Opposite Zhang Ze snapped his fingers and ordered coldly: "Tear him to pieces!"
