Savior Simulator

Chapter 368

Gao Fei and his entourage went ashore one after another, looked back at the group of crocodiles, and was surprised to find that their figures gradually faded and disappeared collectively before everyone's eyes.

It wasn't until this time that everyone suddenly realized that the vortex that suddenly appeared on the river and the group of crocodiles were actually created by magic.

Recalling Panda's dream warning, it is not difficult to guess that the guy who cast spells secretly and has no good intentions is probably the old hag Ivanora's daughter Eastna!

Apart from Eastna, who is hiding somewhere, everyone has a more pressing problem to solve.

Where the raft landed, there was a green meadow stretching along the river bank, and in the distance there were sparse bushes.

The scenery in this area is beautiful, but the yellow brick path that led everyone along the way has disappeared.

"We must get back on the right path, otherwise, the further we go, the further we may be from our destination."

Dimitri the Lion said worriedly.

Vita the Scarecrow looked up at the direction of the sun, turned to look at the river again, and said thoughtfully, "Judging from the angle of the sun, this big river flows from north to south. We crossed the river on a raft from the east bank, and the raft was washed by the river during the process. Downstream, so we should head north along the bank, and if nothing else, we'll find the Yellow Brick Road before sunset."

"You're smart, Vita, we should do as you say."

Nick the Tin Woodman nodded appreciatively.

"I hope I don't come up with a bad idea."

Perhaps affected by the curse, the scarecrow lacked confidence in his own judgment and looked back at Ma Yun.

"Miss Mage, it's up to you to decide how to go next."

Before Ma Yun could speak, a strange woman's voice suddenly came from the forest behind her.

"Young travelers, it seems that you are lost. Maybe I can give you a good idea."

Gao Fei and Jiang Feng looked at each other with surprise on their faces.

Since they were in danger in the river, both of them have stepped up their guard. Someone is hiding in the nearby forest, and it is impossible for them to be unaware.

Where did this woman come from?
Under everyone's vigilant gaze, three vague figures gradually emerged in the dark forest covered by branches and leaves, and their outlines gradually changed from illusion to solidity.

"Is this 'invisibility'?" Jiang Feng guessed in a low voice.

"No!" Ma Yun, who knew more about magic, shook her head and denied it, with a nervous expression, "These guys drifted from the spirit world!"

The so-called "spirit world" is also known as the "ether plane".

Similar to the "Fairy Wilderness", the spiritual world is also a parallel plane that closely fits with the material world, but the spiritual world is more desolate than the Fairy Wilderness, and most of the space is a void shrouded in "ether fog".

Except for a very small number of spirit world natives and foreign travelers, there are only incorporeal undead such as ghosts wandering in the void of the spirit world, which can be described as a "forbidden zone of life" in the literal sense.

Mortals cannot cross the boundary between the physical world and the spiritual world.

Even with the help of magic, only a few high-level magics such as "transformation of spirit body", "traveling in the spirit world" and "transmission from another world" can make people shuttle between the material world and the spirit world.

Spellcasters who are good at this kind of method are definitely not something that everyone with an average level of less than level 5 can fight against.

The three phantoms in the forest escaped from the spirit world and transformed into entities.

Standing in the center is a girl wearing a black velvet cloak, holding a black heart-shaped crystal shining with magic power in her right hand. It seems that it is with the power contained in this gemstone that she and her companions can freely travel to and from the spirit world.

The mysterious girl held the rein in her left hand, leading a steed that spewed sulfur and smoke from its mouth and nose, and stepped on fire with four hooves. Its fur without variegation was like black and smooth satin.

Not far behind her, followed by a big black dog as strong as a calf.

This strange dog has an unusually long neck, its face vaguely has human features, and its eyes are shining with scarlet and scorching light like carbon fire.

The mysterious girl led the horse and the hunting dog, and slowly walked out of the woods. She took off the cloak and hood with her backhand, revealing her long hair hanging down to her waist and a seductive face.

"If I'm not mistaken, you are the daughter of the Eastern Witch Ivanora, Eastna?"

Ma Yun held the "paint spray magic wand" tightly, and stared at the strange girl across from her with full vigilance.

I have to admit that, apart from the slightly bluish skin and aquiline nose that look a bit weird, this young half-blood hag looks pretty pretty.

The mysterious girl froze for a moment, with surprise in her eyes, and replied in a slightly hoarse voice: "Little girl, since you recognize me, let's talk about it."

"What's there to talk about?"

"I'm going to make a deal with you," Eastna said.

"What deal?" Ma Yun asked warily.

"I heard that you are planning to go to the Emerald City? I can show you the way and escort you to your destination safely. In return, you have to return Ivanola's magic book and magic shoes. I think I have the right to inherit this A legacy."

Of course Ma Yun didn't want to accept such an unfair deal, but she didn't refuse immediately, and turned to Gao Fei and Jiang Feng to cast a consulting look.

"Brother Fei! Sister Feng! This demon girl has bad intentions, what should we do?"

"The magic book and the silver high-heeled shoes must not be given to her. A fight will inevitably happen in the end." Jiang Feng gripped the battle ax tightly.

"Don't rush to do it, first investigate her details."

Gao Fei opened the astrolabe and scouted Eastna.

However, he soon received a system prompt, informing him that he was currently unable to detect high-level NPCs.

Gao Fei was no stranger to this phenomenon.

Even if he couldn't detect it, based on the information provided by Panda the Nightmare Tapir and his own experience, he could tell that Eastna, who has the blood of a night hag and a level 8 mage profession, would never be less than level 8 in challenge. .

As for the black horse and black dog beside Eastna, they can be directly investigated.

The black horse is the legendary nightmare horse, a war horse from the devil world. Only night hags and high-level devils can tame this large and violent magical beast.

Nightmare horse challenge level 4, innately immune to fire damage, hooves and bites are equivalent to natural weapons with "flaming" special effects, attack with additional 1d6 burning damage, and can cast 9-level magic "traveling in the spirit world" at will, Carrying the master on the back freely travels to and from the etheric plane.

The big black dog behind Eastna is the "Yeshhound" that Panda mentioned. It is an evil goblin creature, and its challenge level is also level 4.

Before Gao Fei had time to look at the investigation data carefully, Eastna yelled impatiently.

"Have you discussed it?"

"We've discussed it." Gao Fei winked at his companion, and said loudly to Eastna, "I'm sorry, ma'am, we don't want to make this deal with you."

"Oh, my God! What a pity!" Eastna shrugged in feigned surprise, "Since this is the case, I can only wish you luck."

After saying this, she turned and walked towards the forest.
