Wu Liuqi in Marvel

Chapter 52: Social Animals
"—Hey! Hey!" The split-toothed bird whose legs had been cut off howled in pain on the ground.

Merlin and Wu Liuqi hid not far away.

Clefttooth birds are social animals, and they are extremely united, and will not abandon any companions. This is the nature of almost all social monsters. They are not very aggressive individually, and they rely on group siege to catch prey, which also causes their The squad is indispensable.

Their calls seemed to be some kind of distress signal, and a large group of splittooth birds surrounded them in an instant.

"Hey! Hey~"

Wu Liuqi asked: "What level is your crack-toothed bird language?"

Merlin said, "This is an unpopular Warcraft language, I haven't learned it before."

Wu Liuqi said: "I can speak cat language, their pronunciation is similar, I seem to understand a little bit."

Merlin: .
After a while.

Wu Liuqi seemed to recognize the trick.

"They said that the two injured guys had turned to humans, and when they were about to die, they still had the face to call for their companions."

"Then the two injured birds said pitifully, Sherlock is a good man, and he gave us a name, my name is Xiaolan, his name is Xiaolu, and Sherlock saved us from the hands of the deep sea demon, that human being It is still a strong man who has contracted with the lord of the Flame Domain, whether it is for the clan or personal grievances. We have no reason to abandon him."

Merlin asked uncertainly, "What level is your cat language?"

Wu Liuqi said: "Level six, what's wrong?"

Merlin was surprised and said: "Cat language level [-] can be understood so clearly after listening to the slit-toothed bird? I will also take the cat language test when I go back from this mission."

Wu Liuqi sneered and said, "Actually, I don't understand much, I only understand a few words, but if you don't understand, you can guess. I think what they say should not be much different from what I guessed."

Merlin: .
While the two were talking, a flock of birds that arrived later had already taken away the two companions with broken legs.

"How? Chasing that Sherlock or chasing the bird?"

Merlin closed his eyes and felt it, and said: "The magic imprint is still there, that boy probably doesn't know magic methods, he can't escape, let's chase the birds first, and investigating the source of the plague is our goal."

The two followed a few hundred meters behind the split-toothed bird.

I don't know how long it took, the birds came to a dense forest, and deep in the dense forest was a lake.

The twilight is all together, and the sky is full of sunset clouds.

"This group of birds are quite good at picking places." Wu Liuqi complained.

Merlin opened the door, touched some bread from his own academy, and threw Wu Liuqi a bag of oat milk, "Splittertooth birds are amphibians, they seem to like water more than land."

Wu Liuqi took a bite of the bread, "If they prefer water, what are the carapaces on their backs for?"

Merlin lowered his head, "Slow down, don't expose yourself, I don't want to fight with a group of birds, they are so dirty. And I told you, usually less sleep in class, the danger in the water is no less than that on land, they In the water, you can retract your legs and head into the carapace like a turtle, swim with your wings, run fast, and have high defense.”

Wu Liuqi also lowered his head a lot: "This group of birds has quite a few tricks."

At this moment, a split-toothed bird that was much stronger than other birds came out of the tree hole. Its wings were obviously more powerful, but the carapace on its back became smaller. The thread body is completely different from the ugly bodies of other splittooth birds.

--cracking!

It roared towards the sunset, and the bird's crown seemed to absorb the afterglow of the setting sun.

"This is magic." Merlin looked at the confused Wu Liuqi, and explained, "Monsters have a very weak perception of magic power. Except for a very small number of monsters, ordinary monsters can only be released when the concentration of magic power is extremely high. Magic, these times are morning, noon, evening, and midnight, and their magic is extremely rough, and they can't use delicate magic like opening doors."

I saw the Clefttooth Bird King put his crown close to Xiaolan and Xiaolu, and there was a soft light, and their lost legs began to recover.

Wu Liuqi's bread fell to the ground, "Is this magic delicate enough?"

The surprise on Merlin's face did not diminish in the slightest, "Healing the Holy Light! This is the magic that only the Supreme Mage is qualified to release. Although the regeneration of severed limbs is not a miracle in the magic field, it is also extremely difficult. It must To have an extremely deep understanding of healing spells, it is difficult for mages like me who focus on combat to learn."

These birds really are not normal!

Merlin pressed his hands to the ground, Elementary Magic: Perception.

The invisible ripples spread around Merlin.

After a while.

Merlin exclaimed: "There is an expert in the tree hole, I was discovered, go away!!"

As soon as the words fell, a roar that was completely different from that of the split-toothed bird came from the tree hole, which shocked the eardrums of the two of them.

All the split-toothed birds looked in Wu Liuqi's direction together.

This time he was taken aback.

"You cast the magic, why are they looking at me?"

Merlin opened the door in front of him and said, "Stop talking, let's go separately! Look for a chance to enter the hole!" Then he got into the door.

Wu Liuqi panicked, and a pile of rift-toothed birds rushed towards him.

"Can't you just open the door for me?"

He heard Merlin's sound transmission magic: "Master told you to practice opening the door, you can do it yourself!!"

Andrew Village.

Sherlock looked at the fire rising into the sky, tears flashed in his eyes, he knelt on the ground, hammering the ground with both hands, "Why? Why didn't those mages come sooner?! If it was earlier, you wouldn't have to dead!!"

Sparks flew in the air, and Merlin stepped through the door.

Sherlock subconsciously became alert, and pulled out the bony dagger from his back waist.

Merlin directly threw an inscription tightly, and Sherlock couldn't move immediately.

"Let go of me! If you have the ability, let me go!! Let's single out!!"

Merlin smiled: "You can't beat me in a one-on-one fight. We mages have to learn melee combat before learning magic. I heard that you contracted the Lord of the Flame Domain? Don't worry, you have no chance to summon."

"One more thing, I heard what you said just now, and there is something I have to correct."

"The supreme mage can see the future. I have not reached that level. Now I can only vaguely perceive what is about to happen in the future. Every world is protected by the supreme mage. They have their own judgments. Everything is judged by the world. Their survival comes first, maybe what happened here is indeed a disaster, but for them, unless there is something threatening the world, they will never take action."

Sherlock kept struggling under the inscription, "You mages are a bunch of hypocrites!! You are merciful on the surface!!! You never care when someone really dies!"

Merlin shook his head helplessly, "Have mercy? This may be another big misunderstanding"

He squatted down, intending to give the boy some science knowledge, when he sat down cross-legged, a branch caught his attention.

There was nothing special about this branch, it just had a faint magic power left. The village was full of ordinary people, so it was impossible to have even a little bit of magic power.

Previously his attention had been drawn to the corpse, and he hadn't paid attention to such a tiny thing.

Merlin looked at the branches, his face became gloomy, he opened the door, and took out an ancient book with a black cover from his room.

——"Gathering Star Hall Monster Illustrated Book"

He put the branch on the magic circle in the center of the illustrated book, and a golden projection emerged from the book.

——The Ancient Tree of Jihad (Epic), Introduction: Feeds on human brains, has a ferocious temperament, the process of brain-sucking is extremely short, accompanied by instant intense pain, the person who is sucked usually has a hideous face and a stiff body, and a few strong humans have the opportunity to resist .

Monsters are extremely aggressive, good at stealth and assassination, and sneak attacks with vines. They are super hunters in ancient battlefields and reapers of human races.

The more he looked at him, the more frightened he became. The symptoms of the villagers completely matched the description of the ancient jihad tree in the illustrated book.

Thinking about it now, the roar in the tree hole was exactly the same as the ancient jihad tree.

He remembered what he said to Wu Liuqi just now: "Let's go separately! Look for opportunities to enter the cave!"

"Damn it!" Merlin cursed secretly, hoping that his junior brother would not be obedient.

PS: I heard that some of you want to guess my plot?
