Chapter 182: Crusade

After leaving the Lord's Tower, Enzo returned to the North Manor.

"Although I can get advanced meditation by joining the Kendi family in the form of a contract, I will be bound by the family for life, which is definitely not in my interest."

"Ulysses must be dissatisfied with his rejection today."

"But it doesn't matter. Anyway, I have Gustav as my mentor, and as an apprentice of [Crow Phantom], even the Kendi family can't force me to sign a contract."

In the laboratory, Enzo looked thoughtful.

"I have just been promoted to a third-level apprentice. In the next period of time, I can't use [Azure Potion] to improve my mental strength."

"The magic potion exchange meeting that Ralph mentioned will be held in three days, so I should hurry up to make a batch of magic potions so that I can exchange resources with other magic potions at the exchange meeting."

After making up his mind, Enzo began to prepare to make magic potions.

"It's a pity that the materials are not enough, otherwise, making a few [Azure Potion] will definitely be very popular." While lighting the black candlestick, Enzo sighed slightly and said, "[Azure Potion] is very valuable, but one piece of material requires 60 magic stones, and the most precious sunflower is even more priceless and hard to find."

Sunflower is the core material of [Azure Potion], and one piece requires 50 magic stones.

Unable to refine [Azure Potion], Enzo can only choose other potions. At present, he has dozens of formulas. In addition to [Combustion Potion] and [Azure Potion], there are more basic potions such as [Magic Potion] and [Healing Potion].

These basic potion formulas are widely circulated in the wizard world. They existed before the establishment of the Magic Potion Association, so they are not protected by patents. Any potion master can learn them, and many newcomers will try them when they first learn potion knowledge.

"Let's get started." After taking a deep breath, Enzo began to refine potions.

Deep in the dark forest.

Tall and lush trees blocked the sunlight from the sky, making the forest a little dark. Because of the light rain not long ago, there was a hint of coolness in the air.

Somewhere in the forest, between the crowns of a tree.

A carrion crow with scarlet eyes landed on a branch, combing its feathers with its beak from time to time. Suddenly, it heard a slight sound, and it lifted its head agilely, flapping its wings and flew up.

"Swish!" Suddenly, a ball of green mucus hit from a distance.

The carrion crow was hit by the mucus, without making any sound. It was instantly corroded and bloody, like a disgusting meat ball, falling from mid-air.

Crunch, crunch.

The sound of footsteps stepping on dead branches sounded, and not far away, a team of wizards came out. Most of them were wearing gray robes with lightning patterns embroidered on their collars and cuffs.

The leader was a middle-aged wizard, walking in front without saying a word.

He has a pair of amber green eyes, a high nose bridge, long light green hair scattered on his shoulders, a cane in his hand, and a green robe on his body, emitting a magical fluctuation.

"Lord Idru, the entrance should be nearby."

A gray-robed apprentice took a few steps forward and picked up the dead scavenger crow on the ground. He looked around, then looked at the map in his hand and said with his head down.

"Well." Idru had a blank expression on his face, his nose moved, and he said in a light voice: "I can smell the smell of those rats."

After that, Idru took a few steps in one direction, and the cane in his hand suddenly stabbed a tree.

A strange scene happened afterwards. The tree stabbed by the cane actually flowed with a stream of scarlet blood. On the wrinkled surface of the tree, a hideous human face with blurred eyes and mouth appeared.

"Damn invader!" The tree demon roared angrily.

The next moment, it violently waved its vines, rolling towards Idru, and whipped the ground desperately, making a dull sound.

In the surrounding woods, pairs of bloodthirsty scarlet eyes appeared.

"Humph!" Idru snorted coldly, and a burst of energy shot out from the front of the crutch. The wrinkled and dry body of the tree demon suddenly exploded with a bang, forming a bloody hole.

"Woo! I'm going to kill you!"

A painful expression appeared on the face of the tree demon, and it roared. Its huge body trembled violently, and the vines hanging from the crown of the tree waved wildly.

At the same time, a group of violent goblins emerged from the forest.

"It seems that this is indeed the entrance to the lair of the fallen wizard." Seeing a group of transformed violent goblins, Idru smiled coldly and raised his hands suddenly.

On the ground, green bamboos broke out of the ground!

Following a sharp scream, the violent goblins were pierced by the green bamboo, and the smell of blood filled the forest. Under the suppression of Idru's wizard-level magic, the goblins couldn't even self-destruct.

In a moment, all the violent goblins in the forest were destroyed.

"Next, it's your turn." Idru raised his head and looked at the tree demon expressionlessly.

"Woo! Please forgive me, great wizard."

Seeing a group of goblins being destroyed in an instant, the anger in the tree demon's heart was replaced by fear. It gathered the vines into the crown of the tree, and its huge body trembled constantly.

"Begging for mercy now? It's too late."

Idru's amber eyes were cold, and his expression did not change. The crutch in his hand suddenly pierced into the trunk of the tree demon.

"No!!!" The tree demon made a desperate sound.

The next moment, its huge body began to wither, as if its vitality had been drained, and it quickly withered. In just a few seconds, it degenerated from a tree demon into an ordinary tree.

Click!

Idru pulled out his crutch, and the withered trees broke in half.

"Sir, look!" A gray-robed apprentice's eyes lit up and he pointed forward.

After the tree demon's huge body collapsed, a dark cave was revealed below, and according to the description on the map, that seemed to be the entrance to the underground ruins.

"Very well, let's go in."

Idru nodded, with the corners of his lips raised slightly, and led a group of gray-robed apprentices into the cave.

"Hmph! Justin, you were lucky enough to escape during the crusade a few years ago. This time I will directly destroy your Nightfall City to see where you and those dirty rats can hide."

Thunder City, Manor.

Three days have passed since he last left the Lord's Tower. During this time, Enzo converted all the few magic stones left in his hand into potions.

"The exchange meeting will start soon. We have to get to the Potion Association as soon as possible."

In the laboratory, after Enzo finished refining the last potion, he extinguished the candlestick and returned all the equipment to its place. Then he put on a gray robe and headed to the Potion Association with the potions accumulated in the past few days. .
