The harsh sunshine in summer is the complete opposite of the cold winter weather.
Even in the land of wizards, the wet bone forest is famous. That unique bone forest is home to countless magical beasts.
The extreme high temperature shrouded the forest in a haze of steam.
Mist covered almost all areas.
This is not fog, it is water vapor.
This land is unbearably wet.
With high temperature, humidity, and bad climate, there is no doubt that humans hate the Moist Bone Forest.
But it is the most comfortable living environment for Warcraft.
A hydralisper nearly ten meters long, with a ring of bone spurs tied around its neck, was the favorite in this environment. Its light blue scales, covered by steam, became the best camouflage.
With this layer of camouflage, it is difficult for the Hydralisk to be discovered by other more powerful monsters even in the depths of the Moist Bone Forest.
This ringed snake has grown up and feeds on corpse monitor lizards. It occasionally hunts some human wizard apprentices who stray into this area. Although it is a bit spicy, the unique taste of the wizard apprentices makes it memorable.
It spit out its tongue that was forked three times, and the moist vapor in the air always reflected the movements of the surrounding environment.
At this time, the water mist in front suddenly fluctuated.
The bone spurs on the neck of the ringed snake stood up immediately, like a lion's mane, making it suddenly become extremely eye-catching from its low profile. The invisible deterrent was like substance, turning into transparent ripples that spread forward.
As the ripples pass by, the water vapor is instantly emptied.
Four human wizard apprentices in gray robes were exposed in the air.
The ringed snake raised its head, and the bone spurs on its neck suddenly shot out, covering the surrounding area with a pop.
The wizard apprentice standing at the front suddenly raised a finger, as if a certain syllable echoed, and with a flash of light, the wizard shield, one of the most common witchcraft among wizards, turned into a wall, covering himself and The three wizard apprentices behind him were covered inside.
Dudududu——
There were dense sounds of blows, and the ripples of the wizard's shield collided with bone spurs, swaying endlessly, but in the end it was still not possible to break it.
The scales on the body of the ringed snake surged, and the bone spurs that had just been ejected from the neck were seen to grow again, and this time it was larger than the last time. Several of the bone spurs were a little different in color. They were highly venom soaked in the venom glands. Bone spurs.
At this moment, a figure suddenly emerged from the water mist behind the kraited snake, and the frost-white sword light cut across it. The kraited snake's neck, which was as thick as a wild boar, sizzled and was cut directly with a terrifying slash. Wound.
The rarely exposed scaleless skin wrapped in layers of bone spurs happens to be the weakest point of the Hydralisk.
The head of the ringed snake squirmed for a while, and the bone spurs circling the neck slowly opened. But as a layer of frost spread, all the nerves of the ringed snake immediately became dull and numb.
Until it gets out of control.
"Good job, Gumbuz."
The wizard apprentice who released the wizard shield before praised loudly.
Gumbutz couldn't help but frown. This was deep in the Moist Bone Forest. The louder the noise, the easier it was to provoke those powerful monsters.
Ringed snakes are already difficult to deal with.
But there are many monsters here that are more terrifying than hydralisks.
'As expected, he is a pampered prince, and he has not changed even after coming to the wizard's world. '
This thought flashed through Gumbutz's mind.
A smile appeared on his face, "Ofra, you have the most important material for making the scepter. These poisonous stings can greatly increase your witchcraft."
Ofra came over, excitedly put on a white glove, and forcefully pulled out the four venomous stingers that the krait snake had no time to launch.
"This kind of venomous stinger has the best activity. If you remove its venom glands and soak them for a second time, the effect will be much worse."
A wizard apprentice behind him said in admiration.
"The great knight must take action, otherwise even if we can kill the hydralisks, it will be difficult to retain these stings." The apprentice walking at the back smiled at Gumbutz.
Ofra had already put away the stinger with a special cloth bag at this time.
In front of everyone, he threw a piece of witch gold to Gumbutz.
"Each kraited snake's sting is worth ten pieces of mithril. Including the mission reward, it's eighty pieces of mithril. The extra twenty pieces are my reward for you. Gumbutz, if you are willing to be my follower, I will I promise you will definitely ask a wizard to help you transplant a good organ."
Ofra stared at Gumbuz.
"No, I think it's fine as it is now." Gumbutz declined.
Ofra's eyes narrowed subconsciously, and his originally expectant eyes were covered with a haze. He hid it well and immediately waved his hand pretending to be generous.
"Think about it again. Since the old guy who lived on the mountain died, you have become the only great knight in Shimobone Forest. You should understand my talent and identity. There are already three wizards who want to be my mentor. Do My attendant is much better than being that woman’s attendant.”
When Ofra spoke, his eyes slowly turned golden, and the black ridges were as deep as the abyss, and invisible pressure emanated from Ofra.
The three apprentices closest to him fell to their knees on the ground, trembling all over.
Beads of sweat broke out on Gumbutz's forehead, and he was under tremendous pressure.
Ofra raised the corners of her mouth and her eyes returned to their previous appearance.
The invisible pressure suddenly dissipated.
Gumbutz's breathing became slightly heavier, and he soon returned to calmness.
"go back."
Ofra walked at the front in high spirits.
...
There was no wind, it was a sultry day, and the high temperature distorted the air. Gumbutz dragged his heavy steps and slowly opened the crooked wooden door.
There was a long crunching sound.
This house that we were used to living in seemed even more dilapidated.
Gumbutz stood blankly outside the door, filled with inexplicable emotions in his heart.
It has been five years since I first lived here.
When he first came to Shimobone Forest, he was not yet sixteen years old, and now Gumbuz will soon be twenty-one years old.
Time flies.
Everything has changed.
Now he is the only one living in this dilapidated house.
The second month after Anna developed the "Blue Mushroom Potion", she was accepted by a wizard named Yanis and became an official wizard apprentice.
Anna, who became an official wizard's apprentice, soon moved away.
She didn't take Gumbuzzi with her.
However, at her request, the wooden house was not taken back. Thanks to this, Gumbuz did not have to go to Wandering Point to find a place to live.
That was also the last time the two met.
The last time the two of them contacted each other was through a letter a long time ago.
He and Anna have not seen each other for more than three years, almost four years.
Loneliness is not conducive to fighting against the dark night of Shimobone Forest. All negative emotions and extreme thoughts will be amplified by the complex and weird sounds.
Sometimes Gumbuz misses Anna. Although she has all kinds of problems, her existence can at least dilute the loneliness.
Gumbutz turned his head to look at the horizon. The orange clouds moved slower, indicating that the night was coming soon.
He raised his feet and walked into the house, closing the door slowly.
