Chapter 41 The Whispering Dryad
Ma Wen turned around suddenly, but saw that the open space behind him was empty.︾︾,
The strange voice seemed to appear out of thin air.
"who?"
He asked loudly, his hands pressing on the scimitar.
His eyes were full of vigilance. When the other party was talking just now, he had no sense at all.
But then there was silence.
The sound never appeared again before.
Ma Wen carefully checked the data panel and found that there were no checks such as illusion.
That sound exists objectively, but it is a bit weird.
Ma Wen snorted coldly, and didn't care about so much at the moment, and went directly into the logging forest.
He is not that brave, and he dares not enter the forest after being scared by someone for a few words.
...
In the forest, there is darkness.
Compared with Chiba Forest, the trees in the logging forest appear taller.
But unlike the lush and vibrant feeling of the forest where the elves live, the trees in the entire logging forest look tall and deformed.
The wrinkled bark is like the faces of an old man, strange and indifferent, making people feel extremely uncomfortable to look at.
I don't know how those lumberjacks work in such an environment.
Marvin had no idea about this forest. In fact, logging forests are of the same level as wilderness in the danger ratings of many intelligence agencies, even one level higher than the deadland.
So he was still very cautious. At the beginning, he went up the river.
There are many abandoned logging farms on both sides of the river. After all, this is a place where loggers often work, and it is impossible to be too dangerous.
Otherwise, ordinary humans would not have survived here for a long time.
The only thing that made Marvin feel annoyed was that the forest was boundless, and the bread crumbs disappeared when they reached the entrance of the forest. It was really difficult to track the traces of butterflies.
He walked up the river and met some sporadic humans along the way, all of whom were lumberjacks whose minds were corrupted by the magic of chaos.
Marvin showed no mercy to them.
This world is so cruel. If they fail to survive, they become monsters. If they are allowed to wander here, they will only cause greater harm to others.
Marvin walked all the way, and finally, he found a strange comb on the edge of a logging field.
"The comb of the elf."
The comb is placed between the logging field and the river, above a stone. It is very conspicuous.
It is obvious that this is a signal that the butterfly deliberately stayed.
Perhaps she had used up her bread crumbs, so she could only find another way to let Marvin track her down.
"She knew I would go up the river..."
"The bread crumbs and combs were left along the way, which proved that she was still clear when she was doing these things."
"What the hell does this guy want to do?"
However, no matter what, since he got the marker, Marvin finally had a direction to continue tracking.
The next second, he started the night tracking without hesitation.
Sure enough, the thin red line in the field of vision pointed directly into the depths of the forest.
At this moment, Ma Wen had to leave the river and go deep into the forest.
According to night tracking, the butterfly should be not far from him.
What the hell is she doing?
The answer to the mystery may be revealed soon.
But when Marvin was about to enter the depths of the forest, the secret test sounded again:
"If I were you, I would not be misled by others."
"This forest is a dead land, and many lumberjacks died here. But people from outside don't know."
"The Alliance only regards this place as a place where they make money, but ignores the lives and death of the people. Believe me. When you go in, you will die."
Ma Wen suddenly turned around and looked around.
Still not one person!
"Who are you?" Ma Wen asked in a deep voice.
On the surface, he didn't move, but secretly, he had already started [Sensing the Earth]!
The next second, fresh creatures appeared in Marvin's mind.
He could feel the salmon swimming in the river, the crabs roaming across the river beach, the weeds floating... and the trees with abominable faces!
In an instant, he seemed to understand something.
Although the voice did not speak again, Ma Wen's eyes were already locked on the other party!
That is an ugly tree!
"I thought it was something..."
Marvin sneered: "It turns out to be [Whispering Tree Spirit]."
The other party was still silent.
But all this is no longer important. Marvin figured out the source of the sound and naturally would not be disturbed by them.
In fact, the Whispering Tree Spirit is not a natural creature. It is said to be a creature created by the evil dragon Titomas now the second lord of the evil spirit world with magic, curses and tree spirits.
The whispering tree spirit has no attack power, he can only scare you.
This kind of creature is already rare in Fernan, and I didn't expect that there are many in the logging forest.
I believe that people’s rumors about the devil were created by these tree spirits.
As the Lord of the Dark Night, Ma Wen naturally had no way to do anything to him, so he could only use intimidation.
This is their instinct.
However, as long as you reason with reverse thinking, you cannot think that no matter who planted these whispering tree spirits here, there must be a very important secret in this forest.
An ulterior secret.
Marvin's curiosity suddenly aggravated.
At this moment, he didn't care about the whispering tree spirit and rushed into the forest.
...
The dark forest may feel uncomfortable for others.
But for the Lord of the Dark Night and the Night Walker, it is like a fish in water.
Marvin's speed was not affected by the terrain at all.
After running for an hour, Marvin finally approached his goal.
"This guy can really run away."
After roughly estimating, Ma Wen had definitely entered the logging forest, and this area should be the core of the logging forest.
What did the butterfly come to this place?
With this mentality, Marvin continued to move forward.
A gap appeared in the bushes not far away.
Marvin crossed gently.
The next second, a piece of ruins covered by the branches appeared in front of Ma Wen.
He was stunned.
Ancient inscriptions were scattered on the edge of the ruins.
Ancient and unfamiliar marks appeared one after another before Marvin's eyes.
In the middle of the ruins, a split altar seemed to tell the vicissitudes of time.
"This is……"
“This is a temple!”
Ma Wen suddenly felt a little dry.
Woodcutting forest, five-colored dragon, temple among the ruins...
He seemed a little familiar with all this.
"Is it really [The Wrath of the Dragon God]?"
He said silently in his heart: "Then, this ruin is not only the temple of the Five-Colored Dragon God, but also his burial place..."
At this moment, a hand suddenly slapped his shoulder!
Chapter completed!
