Chapter 131 The Mastermind
"Think of something quickly, Captain Hans."
Wearing a blue robe and with cold sweat on his face, Carano said anxiously: "I have consumed a lot of my magic power. If I continue like this, I will not be able to maintain the distortion barrier!"
"Damn it!" Muscular Man Hans gritted his teeth and said, "Keep on holding on, and I will activate blood witchcraft immediately. Taking advantage of this opportunity, everyone is ready to break out!"
After saying that, Hans took a deep breath, and his chest rose and fell violently.
As if some kind of magic had been activated, his body continued to expand, and his muscles began to bulge. His clothes were soon torn apart, revealing a body that was as solid as a rock.
Bang!
Hans waved his arms, smashed an attacking baby monster with one palm, moved his legs like a rock giant, and ran forward steadily, saying loudly: "Everyone, follow my pace, now." rush out!"
Pususu!
The baby monsters crawled quickly on the ground with their claws, and then rushed towards Hans in the air. Their sharp claws grabbed his petrified skin, making a harsh friction sound.
In a moment, dozens of baby monsters pounced on Hans.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, several other members of the apprentice team immediately broke through. The female apprentice Bonis, who was wearing a green robe, whispered a spell and summoned a gust of wind to sweep ahead and open up a passage.
"Let's go!" Bonis rushed out in one step.
Carano and the other two apprentices followed closely, but at this moment, not far away, a baby monster with scarlet eyes and pale skin suddenly let out a sharp cry, and the piercing sound was like a sharp cone.
Sound curse!
Bowness turned pale and covered her ears with both hands.
"Uh-huh!!" Beside him, an apprentice holding a flaming sword suddenly screamed in terror. His body was dancing uncontrollably, and the flaming sword slashed at the surroundings.
"Toby!" his companion exclaimed, reaching out to catch him.
But Toby, who was in a state of confusion, was unable to control his body. He screamed in terror, staggered and ran towards Carano, and the sword in his hand was dancing wildly, and he slashed directly.
"Don't come here!!" Carano was shocked and quickly shrank the twisted barrier to protect himself.
"Damn it, you coward!" Bonis' face changed and she cursed angrily.
Due to the shrinkage of the twisted barrier, several other people in the apprentice team suddenly lost their protection. The surrounding bushes trembled violently, and the baby monsters quickly crawled out, and then used the momentum to volley towards several people.
"Ah!!" Amidst the screams, an apprentice was thrown to the ground.
"Phil!!" Hans's eyes were filled with tears.
The sharp claws tore flesh and blood, and the baby monsters, stimulated by the blood, swarmed up and drowned the poor apprentice in an instant. Amidst the shrill wails, the land was dyed red with blood.
Seeing the scene in front of him, Carano's face suddenly turned pale.
"Calano, open the barrier quickly!!" Hans yelled. At this moment, he was besieged by a group of baby monsters. Although he ignored most of the attacks with his petrified skin, he was unable to escape for a while.
Carano just woke up from a dream. He quickly held up the barrier, and the twisted energy formed invisible ripples. However, at this moment, the baby monster that had awakened its magic talent suddenly rushed towards Bonis. passed.
Compared with ordinary baby monsters, the baby monster that has awakened its magic talent is larger and faster. Its sharp claws shine with a dark luster and pounce directly into Bonis's eyes.
"Ah!" Bonis screamed immediately before she had time to dodge.
call out!
A shadow spear shot away.
The negative energy factor penetrated the baby monster's body. In a piercing scream, the smelly flesh and blood exploded in the air. Bonis's heart was beating wildly, and she felt a sense of survival after a disaster. She quickly turned her head and looked back.
Between the woods, Enzo walked out with steady steps.
At this time, Carano's twisting barrier was also supported, and the invisible light curtain blocked the front of the apprentice team. Hans struggled to break away from the siege of several baby monsters and took the opportunity to retreat to the defensive barrier.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The baby monsters that kept emerging from the soil were still rushing forward crazily, hitting the twisted barrier, making a dull sound, and the energy fluctuations were like water waves, making everyone in the apprentice team feel their scalps numb.
"Kalano won't be able to hold on for long if this continues." Hans looked ugly.
"What happened?" Enzo asked with a frown.
"We don't know very well, things are too strange!" Bonis' face was pale, her body was shaking slightly, and she shook her head and said, "According to the information released by the academy, the murderous tree demon should be sleeping all year round and never attack humans on its own initiative. !”
"Chip, detect target data." Enzo's eyes flashed and he ordered in his heart.
"Ding! The murderous tree demon/Strength: 7.3/Physique: 8.1/Spirit: 5.5/Status: Manic/Information introduction: It evolved from the murderous tree that has grown for more than a hundred years and sucked a large amount of flesh and blood. Under normal conditions, it is sleeping all year round, but due to For unknown reasons, the murderous tree demon is awakened and enters a manic state, and will attack all surrounding creatures indiscriminately!"
"Ding! Baby monster/Strength: 2.1/Physique: 1.7/Spirit: 3.2/Status: Good/Information introduction: The souls of humans swallowed by tree monsters will be forever imprisoned. When resentment is combined with flesh and blood, a new species will be born. Life, that is the baby monster! They have a companion relationship with the murderous tree demon, and when the tree demon falls into sleep, they will hunt flesh and blood on their own to serve their masters. "
"Ding! Unknown creature/Strength: 7.5/Constance: 7.8/Spirit: 8.5/Condition: Good."
The mechanical voice sounded in his mind. After detecting the information of the murderous tree demon and the baby monster, a new target was found. The spirit of 8.5 shocked Enzo's heart and his pupils shrank suddenly.
"The mastermind behind the scenes?" Enzo's heart trembled, and a trace of solemnity appeared on his face.
According to the information detected by the chip, the tree demon fell into a manic state, obviously controlled by someone, and the unknown creature hidden in the tree canopy was most likely the initiator of everything.
Crack!
There was another sound of breaking through the air. The murderous tree demon waved a whip-like vine and whipped everything around it. The ground was dusty, and baby monsters drilled out of the soil and rushed towards the twisted barrier frantically.
The barrier light curtain banged, and the energy fluctuations continued to surge!
"I can't hold on any longer!" Kalanno looked pale and extremely weak.
The apprentices' hearts tightened immediately. Toby, who had just woken up from the state of confusion, turned pale, his legs couldn't help but tremble, and the knight's sword in his hand was a little unstable.
"Drink this." Enzo took out a test tube from his arms and threw it to Kalanno.
"This is... magic potion!" Kalanno took the test tube, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he quickly unscrewed the bottle cap and drank it all.
The blue liquid slid into his throat, and a stream of energy immediately spread in his abdomen. The consumed magic power was replenished, and Kalanno's face also regained a little redness, and even the supporting twisted barrier became stronger.
