The Truth of Magic



74 The might of nature

“brother fengye, what’s wrong?” she looked around and realized that the attendants who were escorting the caravan were also very nervous.

“There might be some obstacles ahead. Youyou, you don’t have divine power. Hide.” the warrior maple leaf began to arrange the positions of the other three members.

the players just didn’t have any experience, but they weren’t stupid. after almost a month of fighting, they already had some basic combat knowledge, so they didn’t need zhao xu to explain the positioning.

Zhao Xu gently opened his backpack and touched the mark on his back. After he was sure that it was still there, he relaxed a little.

of the three killer moves antonya had given him, one of them had been attached directly to his back.

it would be triggered if he had an accident or activated it by himself.

as long as he didn’t use the lifestone, the remaining ones would become part of his reward.

So every time Zhao Xu used it, he was overdrawing the future rewards.

but zhao xu was very confident that as long as he didn’t get killed in an instant, he would be able to deal with most of the situations for at least 250 minutes when he activated the trump card that he had behind him.

his deepest impression of this mark was that antonya had paid the price of a legendary spell to speed up the production cycle from 23 days to 23 minutes.

This was only to speed up time, and it did not involve the materials and specialties required for the production.

antonya was able to check on his body’s condition, so naturally, it didn’t affect him, but zhao xu knew that his character’s lifespan had definitely been shortened by 23 days for no reason.

When he thought about how he could strive for eternal life in the future, he didn’t care about the price. Otherwise, it would be too stupid to wait for half a month for this mark.

great guardian of the forest, we do not mean to offend you. Please allow us to pass through. This is our treasure. noah finally opened his mouth.

his voice reverberated throughout the forest, and a few of his personal attendants hurriedly carried the boxes they had prepared.

“The guardian of the forest?” the rogue whispered.

“It’s the Druids. I’m afraid there’s a secret Druid society here. I only know their route now, or else I could have made preparations.” the poet, the antarctic frog, sighed.

It was easy to defeat a single Druid, but it would be troublesome to defeat a group of Druids. Arthur often said that all the Druids in the world were one.

even the fearless players wouldn’t dare to destroy the forest in arthur.

” that’s not right. druids wouldn’t rashly stop a caravan. is there a problem with these goods? ” the priestess said as she looked straight at the carriage.

However, all the goods in this fleet had been tightly wrapped in oilcloth, not letting a single bit of air through.

“don’t tell me it’s some animal fur or tiger’s penis or bear’s gallbladder?” rogue rainbow had already made a bad association.

“no, don’t treat these gang members as fools. you know that there are tigers in the mountain, but you still choose to go to the tiger mountain?” The poet. Frog denied.

Zhao Xu stayed in the corner and listened without saying a word, but his evaluation of this team had increased by half a point.

When encountering something wrong, being able to analyze it rationally instead of panicking was considered a pass.

At this moment, the roar of a Lion suddenly erupted in the forest.

“It’s a Druid’s animal companion.” rogue rainbow quickly said. compared to zhao xu and the others, he had already used his listen to detect where the lion was.

“Which type?” zhao xu quickly asked.

“It’s a Lion,” The Rogue rainbow was confused.

but zhao xu didn’t have to ask any more questions.

Many of the caravan’s followers were already trembling, and even a warrior player like maple Leaf could not help but gasp for breath.

It wasn’t that something strange had happened in front of them. Instead, the ten-meter-tall oak trees around them had been uprooted and turned into towering Tree Men.

No one dared to move, for fear that an unexpected sound would signal the start of a massacre.

immediately after, the oak tree men began to wave their hands and animated the motionless oak trees around them.

as if it was undergoing mitosis, the oak tree men suddenly flipped twice. there were nearly 40 to 50 of them.

the overwhelming pressure of the numbers was slowly tormenting everyone’s heart.

zhao xu was able to keep his calm even in the face of such a big situation, but he still couldn’t help but say, ” Was there a need to?

however, he didn’t even need to do a knowledge check this time. at least, he was lucky enough to find the content that he had read when he upgraded his knowledge (nature) skill.

” hey, poet, how come there’s no movement at all and this oak tree army just popped out? if they had these six spells, they could easily defeat the current army of players with one move. ”

However, the poet. Frog’s ” Yi Wen knowledge ” had just failed the check, and he didn’t cast any knowledge (nature) skill. He was helpless in this situation, so he could only keep quiet.

“they were hiding there from the start.” zhao xu explained.

The people around him immediately looked at him.

” how is this possible? my detection skill has already reached level 2, and with my 2 points of perception adjustment, how can i not see such an obvious treant with my +4 detection bonus? ” Rogue rainbow couldn’t help but raise his voice.

” the treant’s hiding skill in the forest has a race bonus of +16. ” Zhao Xu said calmly.

even if the treant’s hiding bonus was negative, with the race bonus, his skill confrontation would surpass rainbow’s, a noob rogue.

but at this moment, zhao xu and the others ‘attention was drawn to what was in front of them.

A Druid riding a ferocious Lion walked out from the depths of the forest. Behind him, the shadows of the forest were even more indistinct. It was obvious that there were many people lying in ambush.

the druid’s face was simple, as if there was a raging fire beneath it. at the same time, the leather armor he wore had all kinds of branches wrapped around it, and the violent lion below his knees revealed its fangs.

“what’s the level of the lion rider?” the warrior, maple leaf, hurriedly asked upon seeing this.

Most of the level 1 Druid players were still riding horses, driving dogs, or driving camels. How could they be compared to the level of Lions?

“i think it’s level 7?” The priest began to recall.

Zhao Xu looked at the priestess and laughed to himself. This was the disadvantage of relying on memory and not skills.

he also didn’t want them to underestimate this druid and the tree man army in front of them, so he said, ” “this is a berserk lion. only a level 10 druid would have one.”

after saying that, he looked at the surrounding oak tree men and said, ” “these tree men were summoned by the level 6 druid divine spell ‘oak guard’. these tree men can be used to summon two more of the same tree men. Don’t underestimate it, it’s a monster with a challenge rating of 8.”

Zhao Xu said. The treants probably didn’t know what he was talking about, but when he mentioned challenge level 8, these Level 1 players basically knew.

the challenge level was suggested by arthur to challenge this type of monster. it was recommended to have four adventurers above level 8.

Although this evaluation was not very accurate after the era of disasters, and the combat power of monsters of the same challenge level could be as different as heaven and earth, it was still a reference value.

“let’s escape according to the situation.” Maple said in a low voice.

Although the Druid didn’t say anything, it was impossible to have a proper conversation with such a gesture.

Noah, who had been intimidated by the Druid’s might, continued to raise his voice. Lord Druid, please allow us to pass. I’m willing to pay a sum of money for the maintenance of nature, and I promise-”

“get lost!”
