Chapter 178 Death and Decay

Looking at Carl, it seems that he has just experienced a fierce battle and escaped death, and his breath is very unstable.

Carl ran towards Herag.

Although Herag is not afraid of him now, he does not want to appear in front of other wizards in this form so early.

After leaving the ruins of the Death Swamp, he is still just a very weak gasification wizard.

Even if there is only a slight possibility, he cannot expose his secret too early.

So Herag is not going to meet old man Carl in this form for the time being.

It's okay if he doesn't recognize me. If he recognizes me, he must be killed.

But a crystallized wizard always has many means, and he has no confidence that he can completely kill old man Carl.

Carl's innate spell is very special, and that kind of space spell is a bit difficult for Herag to deal with.

Logically speaking, Carl has this kind of innate spell, at least self-protection should not be a problem.

Now he is running for his life in such a panic, and I don't know what happened.

Herag glanced at the ghost and said in a deep voice: "There's a human coming over there, go and deal with him."

The ghost turned around and looked. He hadn't sensed the arrival of old man Carl.

But since Herag said so, it must be right.

The ghost leaned over and said: "Okay, sir."

The ghost stood up and floated towards old man Carl. It had no entity, and its whole body was covered with black light and shadow like ink.

Carl kept running forward, while looking back behind him.

He was already panting at this moment, and his running speed gradually slowed down.

Carl leaned against a tree, panting, and wanted to rest here.

The temperature around him suddenly dropped, and Carl's pupils shrank slightly. He looked up and saw the ghost floating in the air.

"Ghost!" Carl's mood suddenly fell into an ice cave.

The ghost is a powerful monster in the abyss plane. He may not be able to deal with it even in his prime, and it will be even more difficult to deal with it now.

The ghost didn't waste any words, and directly spread a large piece of black fog, trying to wrap Carl.

Carl reacted quickly, and appeared more than ten meters away in a flash, avoiding the black fog.

But the ghost was faster, and with a shake of his body, a large piece of black fog spread out, covering the sky and the earth.

The black fog quickly wrapped Carl up completely, and in the process, black fog kept appearing suddenly in the distance.

Carl's innate spells could not take care of every part of his body at the same time.

He could only distort the space around his body at one position at a time, and he had no way to face this all-round attack without dead ends.

Carl's magic power was already very little, and the shield was broken after supporting it for a while.

The ghost's black fog was highly corrosive, and even magic power could corrode and devour it.

Carl struggled to flash and appeared more than ten meters away again, but the black fog that had already attached to his body stuck to his body like a maggot on the tarsal bone, corroding his flesh and blood.

The magic power in Carl's body was running wildly, constantly resisting the invasion of the black fog.

"Death and Decay (Abyss Language)." The ghost uttered a dull and strange syllable.

All kinds of vegetation on the ground withered instantly, and a layer of frost appeared on the ground.

Old man Carl's body was also covered with a layer of white frost, and his face quickly became thinner, as if it had been sucked dry by something.

Carl's hair quickly withered and became like weeds without any luster.

Then, his hair began to fall off, and large pieces of hair began to fall off when the wind blew.

Carl's head was left with patches of bald scalp, which looked very ugly.

This was not the most terrible thing. Carl's flesh and blood began to dry up, like a dead tree.

The skin quickly shrank and looked like old tree bark.

Carl's whole body arched up and curled up like a baby.

Not long after, Carl was completely silent.

Death and decay can absorb the vitality of living things, and plants such as weeds were instantly sucked dry and turned into dead grass.

If Carl was in his prime, there should be no problem for him to escape.

But he was injured and had no power to escape.

After being stuck by the black fog, just dealing with and resisting the black fog occupied all his energy.

After the ghost used the death decay, Carl had no way to stop it and could only watch his vitality drain away.

He was old and his vitality was already very little, so it was sucked dry in a short while.

After Carl died, the ghost continued to wrap Carl's body with black mist.

After a few minutes, the black mist dissipated, leaving only a pile of bones.

After the ghost completely dealt with Carl, he returned to report.

"Well done." Herag praised softly.

The ghost bowed his head and said, "It is my honor to serve you, sir."

Herag turned around and looked around, and said, "Keep leading the way, let's go around."

The Death Swamp Ruins will only be open for three days, and Herag does not plan to continue to venture to other places.

The ghost has a lot of resources to collect here, and it is safe enough.

This large area belongs to the ghost's sphere of influence, and there will be no monsters stronger than him.

Going to other places is not only risky, but you may also meet other wizards.

Anyway, it will be automatically teleported when the time comes, so Herag just needs to stay here.

When Herag was collecting nearby resources, the two monsters, the ghost and the monkey, followed behind him obediently like little brothers.

His space ring was filled with various potion materials and spell materials, and he made a lot of money.

At night, Herag lived under the giant tree of the ghost.

The branches were lush and could be used as a roof.

Herag lay under the tree, meditating and practicing as usual.

The ghost and the monkey acted as guards, patrolling and guarding around for him.

Under the moonlight, the surroundings did not seem very dark.

"Do you want to go back?" Herag asked after meditating.

The monkey could not speak or communicate with his mind, but just touched the back of his head.

The ghost replied: "My lord, I want to go back every moment, but the cracks in the plane have been sealed."

It was very curious about how Herag came here, but it would not ask if Herag did not say it.

It could not ask more about the affairs of the superior.

In the early morning, there were about two hours before sunrise.

Deep in the west of the Black Forest, a red beam of light shot up into the sky, illuminating the night.

At this moment, the entire Death Swamp Ruins could see this red beam of light, and they all looked up.

Herag also opened his eyes and felt the strong fluctuation of magic.

He looked up and felt that the red light column looked familiar.

"This is..."

This red light column is very similar to the light column that old man Carl used to seize control of the Black Rock Valley magic array that day, almost exactly the same.

"The magic array in the Death Swamp Ruins... can't it be..."

Herag suddenly thought, what other magic arrays could there be in the Death Swamp Ruins? Isn't it the magic array that seals the plane cracks?
