Netheril’s Brilliance

Chapter 438 Oasis

"Hey, hey, you bastard is really annoying, do you really have a plan? If you say you have to wait, you will wait for a long time for no reason, and if you say no, you will immediately get up and start walking forward? Why is my uncle so~ Not happy."

Seeing that Punk suddenly started to prepare for battle without saying a word, although Kane quickly pulled out his lance and followed, the knight who couldn't stop cursing was obviously very displeased with this feeling of not having control.

In fact, for Punk, the goal he was waiting for has been accomplished, and it is naturally best to start fighting as soon as possible.

But for Kane, who has been puzzled by Monk Zhang Er from the beginning to the end, so far, he knows nothing like a real follower. Since Punk holds all the information to death, he can only cling to Punk's face Kane has no way to act on his own, so he can only choose to wait or go to war with the rhythm of punk.

However, Punk's behavior seemed a little too neurotic without knowing the purpose - he stopped and waited at the door of the enemy's lair for a while, and suddenly stopped waiting without knowing what was going on. Kane looked a little out of sorts as if he had been tricked.

But whether Kane’s mood is good or bad is completely indifferent to punk. If he didn't want to step directly into Southend's trap with a blind eye, he could only obediently follow behind Punk.

So, with Kane swearing and swearing, the mage in the black-and-red-striped robe and the knight in the golden armor finally walked quickly into an oasis of incomparable silence.

According to the information given by the filthy bird, this oasis should be Southend's lair, and also the location of the ultimate trap.

So here comes the problem again. Although we know that this is the enemy's lair, where should we enter? Who knows whether Southend's experimental base is hidden in the folded space of this oasis or hidden in the oasis as a node? In the cracks of space.

But for the time being, Punk and Kane are not in a hurry to find the entrance. Anyway, the two of them are here to smash the scene. It is impossible for a mage and a knight to sneak into the lair of other mages quietly, so Punk and Kane Simply do not hide his figure.

For the two violent lunatics, if they couldn't find the main entrance, they simply blasted a hole in. What's wrong with violently breaking the door except for forcing a lower level?

With a purely provocative mood, Kane and Punk stepped directly into this oasis covered with thick grass leaves.

As the emerald green plants fill the field of vision one by one, the world in the entire oasis seems to be isolated from the outside world. Every bead of leaves and flowers is full of vitality here, and even crystal clear flowers can be seen on the tender green leaves. Dew, I have to admit, compared with the desolate scenery of the desert outside, this oasis is simply a sea full of life.

However, this ocean seems too weird...

After the wide range of perception was released, Punk quickly discovered that what was hidden in this seemingly prosperous oasis was actually a touch of strangeness and dead silence.

"This is not an ordinary oasis. The elemental fluctuations here are basically invisible, but the plants here can still maintain a superficial "thriving". This thing itself is outrageous enough."

After calming down and feeling the energy characteristics in the oasis, Punk soon discovered the sluggish and strange elemental fluctuations.

Generally speaking, in a living place, the fluctuations of the elements should be relatively balanced and constantly flowing. These energies have the characteristics of circulation like the breeze in the air. It is hard to imagine that if a place has long-term "air" It cannot be circulated, so how does it allow life to survive vigorously and prosperously.

Like Punk, Kane also immediately noticed the strangeness of the oasis:

"I'm not very sensitive to elements, but I also think these plants are really abnormal."

He stabbed the lance hard into a thick tree beside him, and Kane just picked it up with his wrist. With the strength of a master knight, he easily uprooted the whole tree.

However, at the same moment when the giant tree was uprooted, accompanied by a loud and violent creaking sound, Punk's originally calm face and Kane's always cynical expression immediately became gloomy.

Because the giant tree pulled up by Kane is really weird!

I saw that its upper part was still a very ordinary giant tree, but its lower part... had a drastic mutation!

The root position of the lower half of this big tree has turned into a large pile of frantically twisting light red tentacles! These tentacles, which can still vaguely see traces of tree roots, are violently twisting and waving in mid-air at this time. It seems that this big tree is very angry at being pulled out suddenly, and it is obviously very unwilling to be pulled out. The person is held high in the air.

"Hey~~Damn it! What kind of disgusting thing is this? Can a big tree these days be able to hybridize with a beholder?"

After a little dazed effort, Kane saw the greasy tentacles on the roots of the big tree clinging to his lance. Although Kane would definitely not be afraid of a mutant tree that was barely strong enough to be an apprentice, but This kind of slimy tentacles undoubtedly makes the knight who has a cleanliness feel very disgusted.

There is nothing to say, the angry Kane directly threw the giant tree away, until seeing this weird plant flying out of the oasis and disappearing, the unhappy Kane quickly took out a rag and carefully wiped his lance :

"Damn monster, he dared to defile my lance, oh, look at these disgusting slimes, my lord's golden lance should only be soaked in blood, what kind of thing is this?"

Unserious complaints are more expensive than unscrupulous complaints. After carefully wiping off every bit of mucus on the lance, Kane's expression became more and more serious.

Obviously, this mutated tree is very abnormal, and it is impossible for the trees in Faerun's world to have any impure relationship with the beholders. The tree itself can only deepen the strange characteristics of this oasis.

Compared with Kane's seriousness, Punk's expression is already extremely cold.

Using the mage's hand to pick up a little slime from the ground and observe carefully, Punk soon got some preliminary analysis.

After dismissing the Mage Hand, Punk explained to Kane expressionlessly:

"The mutation of these big trees is actually not surprising. The pollution of the abyss energy is enough to make the rocks grow sharp teeth. It is really easy to turn a bunch of tree roots into tentacles.

But... the most unbelievable thing is that this kind of alienation has only maintained half of the process here. The mucus secreted by these trees obviously contains an ingredient that inhibits the infection of abyssal energy. To be honest, it only prevents the spread of abyssal energy. If you use it, many apprentice-level potions can do it, but if you want a creature to have the ability to secrete this kind of potion autonomously, it involves complex alchemy transformation."

Having said that, Punk paused slightly, and then his voice began to become meaningful:

"I don't think we've found the wrong place. Southend's lair must be here, but... it seems that this guy really has a set of research on the power of the abyss, and... I'm afraid there is something wrong with the guy from the chaotic evil camp of the filthy bird." You didn't tell me anything!"
