Chapter 101 The Mysterious Archdruid
The famous swordsman made a simple stretcher to carry Odyssey, learned about the event, and tried to resolve everyone's hostility towards Trunks. It's a pity that although everyone didn't continue to yell to kill Trunks, no one gave him a good face.
For the hostility of the crowd, Trunks himself was very appreciative, and Han Shuo even felt that he didn't care at all. Surprised, Han Shuo asked Trunks, and Trunks replied indifferently: "If you hadn't miraculously found my trace, none of them would have thought of leaving alive. People who can't pose a threat to me, I It’s never been taken to heart.”
During these days with Trunks, Han Shuo learned some principles in the depths of the dark forest through Trunks. In the depths of the dark forest, everything depends on the individual's strength, and others are secondary. Among them, indecision and kindness are signs of weakness, which often kill people.
For three days in a row, everyone followed the guidance of Trunks and continued to explore deeper. In the past three days, Odyssey's injuries have been brought under control, and the wounds are slowly scarring, but there are still some obstacles to movement.
Trunks' physical wounds also improved quickly after treatment. However, due to Han Shuo's stabbing, his hands and feet still seemed a bit clumsy, but his originally pale face was rosy again.
At noon, everyone came to the edge of a pool. First they found a big tree and put Odyssey down, and then they planned to get some water from the pool to drink.
But before everyone could act, Trunks, who was staying with Han Shuo, suddenly frowned, and said to Han Shuo, "Let them be careful, you see that there are some seaweeds growing in the pool, and the roots of these seaweeds carry The sharp thorns will pull people into the pool once they sense that humans and beasts are approaching, and one bad thing can kill them."
As soon as these words came out, Han Shuo quickly shouted: "Gordon, you stand there and don't move."
"If you hold torches in your hands, the scorching heat will make those seaweeds afraid to act rashly." Seeing Han Shuo staring at him, Trunks calmly proposed a solution.
"Thank you!" Han Shuo said softly, then went to Gordon and the others, explained the dangers of seaweed to them, and told them to dye torches.
When they started to act according to Han Shuo's order, a primordial demon standing guard in the distance suddenly noticed the movement of the manticore. Han Shuo was taken aback. He quickly came to Trunks and said, "Your manticore is nearby."
Nodding his head, Trunks looked at Han Shuo in surprise, and said, "You can actually detect the movement around you. That's right, I chose to go this way because this is where I told the manticore to stay. place, I smell something only it can smell.
I think it will find me soon. "
"So that's how it is. I hope you can make Manticore calm down." Han Shuo understood that Trunks has always had a good reputation for keeping promises, but he was not afraid of what he would do. It's just that Manticore is a powerful man. Level 1 Warcraft. Being able to distinguish the enemy, if it attacks itself and Odyssey as soon as it appears, it will be a bit troublesome.
"I know how to do it. I don't need you to remind me." Trunks leaned lazily on the big tree. Suddenly he opened his mouth and screamed sharply.
An approaching manticore wandering in the distance. Hearing Trunks' scream, he quickly approached Trunks. Ten seconds later, he stood meekly in front of Trunks. Gordon and his party, who were fetching water from the pool in the distance, felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy when they saw the manticore, but they were relieved by Han Shuo's words.
At this time, it was placed in the distance, and a primordial demon of Manticore was observed, and suddenly saw a strange phenomenon. I saw a small green tree, the branches suddenly twisted weirdly, and those twisted branches twisted into several balls like twisted flowers, and suddenly turned into human hands and feet strangely.
Han Shuo sensed the anomaly there through the primordial demon, and immediately observed it in amazement. I saw those writhing branches were constantly tangled, and finally turned into a strange man in bark clothes. This strange man had green hair and beard, somewhat similar in appearance to the forest troll, but with pointed ears. It looks a bit like an elf.
When Han Shuo was puzzled, this strange man recognized the direction, headed towards the place where the manticore had just walked, and murmured in his mouth, "If the manticore is here, then Trunks must be nearby too. gone."
Han Shuo was taken aback, stared at Trunks suddenly and said, "There is a strange person who seems to be eyeing the manticore. He was transformed from a tree just now, and now he is following the route where the manticore came. He is approaching here, he seems to know you."
As soon as Han Shuo said these words, Trunks' lazy expression disappeared, he stood up straight, and then jumped onto the manticore's back, and said, "If I guess correctly, that person It should be the archdruid Caspian. As the archdruid, Caspian has the ability to transform into trees and giant bears. He can also communicate with trees. I can't meet him with my current strength. We need to get out of here immediately."
"It's too late, he's already here." Han Shuo frowned and said suddenly.
Originally, Han Shuo planned to ask Trunks before deciding whether to leave or stick to it, but he did not expect that arch druid Caspian to act so fast. While Trunks was speaking, Caspian jumped towards a branch. The soft branch seemed to have spirituality, and after a sudden swing, Caspian was directly thrown here.
Just as Han Shuo said this, Caspian landed in front of Trunks with a loud bang. He looked at Trunks and smiled and said, "Long time no see, good friend, you owe me Things, shouldn't they be returned to me?"
Trunks, who was riding on the manticore, ignored Caspian, and saw the manticore leaping forward, trying to get away from here.
The smile on his face did not change, and Caspian suddenly murmured a series of ancient and desolate spells, and saw the direction in which the manticore jumped, and all the shrubs, trees, flowers and plants seemed to come to life suddenly, as if they had become Countless big and small
, entangled towards Manticore and Trunks.
Right in front of Trunks' escape, the branches of a big tree were tangled into a net, blocking his way. The bushes churned like waves, and soon surrounded the Manticore and Trunks. The rioting manticore tried to destroy everything around him, but was stopped by Trunks.
"Old friend. I can feel that you are injured. This time you did not resist, which means that you are not sure to abandon me. It seems that your injury is not serious. Give me the sacred wood scepter, and I can help you heal the injury. Isn't that good?" Caspian said with a smile, looking at Trunks who had stopped in the distance.
Han Shuo and the others watched the dispute between Trunks and Caspian, but did not intervene. It seemed that Trunks had taken Caspian's things, and now it was just Caspian who came to ask for it back. Judging from the current situation, it seems that Trunks is on the wrong side, so Han Shuo did not intervene. Just watching as a bystander.
"I'm injured, so you won't rob me at this time, will you?" Trunks said to Caspian, spreading his hands after being surrounded by bushes.
Caspian was silent for a moment, then stared at Trunks and said, "If I remember correctly. The Sacred Wood Scepter is what you took when I was injured. I don't mind learning from you if necessary!" "
"Okay, this is your sacred wood scepter. I've been studying it for three months. I haven't found anything special, so I'll give it back to you." With a wry smile, Trunks passed through the space ring. in. He took out an exquisite scepter that seemed to be made of old tree roots. Far to Caspian.
A branch of a big tree suddenly stretched out. Miraculously wrapped the sacred wood scepter and sent it to the archdruid Caspian. Immediately after Caspian held the sacred wood scepter, a breath of vitality overflowed from the sacred wood scepter, and the surrounding bushes rustled, as if they were cheering softly.
Caspian threw a thumb-sized vial to Trunks, and after Trunks caught it, Caspian said flatly, "The flower essence in the bottle is very good for your injuries. Don't make any more decisions about me in the future."
Trunks poured the flower essence down, shrugged his shoulders at Caspian, and didn't promise Caspian anything. Judging from his appearance, it seemed that he still had extravagant motives for what happened to Caspian.
"Honorable Lord Archdruid, can you please heal my friend?" At this time, the elf archer Nia suddenly walked up to Caspian and said very sincerely.
Caspian smiled and looked at Nia, nodded and said in harmony, "My dear child, I cannot refuse your request."
Both druids and elves are believers of the goddess of nature, and only some of the most devout believers of the goddess of nature are eligible to become a druid. This druid had pointed ears, and was obviously transformed from an elf. No wonder he agreed to Nia's request without hesitation.
Arch Druid Caspian walked up to Odyssey on the stretcher, glanced at Odyssey's wound, and frowned involuntarily. Afterwards, Caspian recited a spell, dripping three drops of green liquid into Odyssey. Then he said apologetically to Nia: "Your friend is seriously injured. My natural blessing and three drops of vitality water will speed up the recovery of his wound, and he won't worry about any bacteria infection." .But after he recovers from his injury, he cannot do strenuous exercise, otherwise he may suffer from dizziness, or even pass out directly. I can't do anything about this, and I'm really sorry!"
"Thank you, Caspian." Nia thanked her aloud, and then said, "Tranks said that the blood of the gorgon can help Odyssey fully recover, and we will find the gorgon."
After looking at Trunks in surprise, Caspian said to Nia: "He is right, there is some magical blue blood in the place where the magic beast crystal core is wrapped in the gorgon's brain. It does help him fully recover. But my old friend is not a helpful fellow, so why would he tell you this?"
"You also took the sacred wood scepter, and you have treated me, I think you have been chasing me for several months, should you return to the Deism to report as soon as possible!" Over there Trunks glared at Caspian , said with some displeasure.
Smiling and nodding, Caspian explained to Nia: "It seems that my old friend is angry, hehe, in fact, he is not as bad as you imagined, if he is willing to help you, you have a lot to do." Possibly with gorgon blood. I'm sorry I have other commitments and I can't be with you."
"You are too polite." Niya seemed a little flattered, and hurriedly said sincerely.
After Caspian looked at Trunks from a distance, he left with a smile and disappeared from everyone's sight in a while.
"Let's go, let's continue on the road. We'll be there in two days." After Caspian left, Trunks snorted coldly and urged everyone to continue on the road.
Under the guidance of Caspian, the people did not encounter any danger here, and two days later they came to a swamp with a strong smell. Around the swamp, some huge piranhas attacked Han Shuo and others repeatedly. Fortunately, Trunks reminded them beforehand that everyone gathered together to resist the attacks of those piranhas.
"There is a piece of mud in this huge swamp. It is said that the Dagmar fruit you need grows, including a gorgon lurking in it. We have reached our destination." Trunks pointed at the wide open space in front of him. Swamp, speak.
