Overlord of the Phantom of the Elves

It was already dusk when we left the forest, the sky was getting dark, and even the sunset on the horizon had only the last trace left.

Looking back, the forest looked even more gloomy than when we came in. The wind was howling and the ghostly atmosphere filled the air, as if there were many ghosts fighting in it.

Chen Mu and Soraya looked at each other and patted their hearts in fear.

"Fortunately, I ran out before dark. This is really a weird forest."

"Huhu" - that's right, it's so scary there.

One person and one fox walked and communicated with each other, without any awareness of being the instigators.

Lin Lin: Don’t you have any idea why I’m like this?

Because it was getting dark, Chen Mu did not rush back to the city. Instead, he found a nearby village to stay overnight, planning to wait until tomorrow to return to the city by horse carriage or ox cart.

Although the current overall development level of this world is similar to that of Blue Star in the [-]th century, there are still many differences in details.

Because of the existence of elves, humans have been exposed to heat and electricity earlier than Blue Star. At the same time, the extraordinary power carried by the elves also makes the technology tree here look very crooked.

The power of steam engines has become more powerful with each generation, but the size has also become larger with each generation.

I don’t know if it was influenced by the Elf Giant Carbon Mountain, but humans in this world seem to have some misunderstanding about the limit size of steam engines.

Humanity's understanding of power sources seems to be trapped in a strange cycle of expansion, explosion, and extreme growth.

Obviously thanks to the existence of electric elves, electric energy has been popularized for a long time, but the internal combustion engine has always been far away and has never been seen.

Affected by this, the large vehicles in this world are very fast. The speed of a giant locomotive is almost no slower than the high-speed train Chen Mu rode in his previous life.

However, the development of small vehicles has been stagnant for many years.

In areas not covered by railway tracks, riding and horse-drawn carriages are still the first choice for people to travel.

The only difference from Blue Star is that the carts here are not pulled by livestock, but by elves.

When he arrived, Chen Mu was riding in a carriage drawn by two small fire horses.

When he went back the next day, he didn't encounter any caravans coming and going, and there were no small fire horses in this remote village. In the end, he was only rented a strong Kentero.

The elves' endurance and explosive power were much stronger than ordinary beasts. Chen Mu was sitting on Kentairola's bullock cart, and his speed was not slow.

And the elves are all wise, so the villagers don't have to worry about losing Kentero when he goes to the city.

After sending Chen Mu off, Lao Kenhui would come back by himself. He knew the road better than the young people in the village.

On the way back, Chen Mu was also thinking about all the strange things in the forest.

"There must be secrets in that hollow deep in the forest."

It's just that he has no plans to delve into it for the time being.

The top priority must be to go back first and let Zoroa learn the "Shadow Claw" using the secret method!

After mastering this advanced skill, the little guy's strength will surely take a leap forward!

At that time, he can also use this to become a veritable professional trainer!

At that time, whether it is to press Anderson for clues, or to explore the dense forest alone after preparation, or even to use this information to make a profit, there will be a lot of potential.

After the strength is improved, the operational space can naturally be expanded.

So Chen Mu was not in a hurry at the moment.

I am still too weak.

It's just that his perception may not seem that way to outsiders.

One day later, when the man in the trench coat who had met Anderson in the tavern came to the depression in the forest from the other direction, he was stunned by the scene after the battle before him——

Tombstones were broken, trees fell over, and the completely angered forest elves even pushed all the way to the edge of the depression. There were still lingering souls in the air.

Even the fog in the forest has become much thinner than before.

The man in the trench coat stood there blankly, his mouth wide open in confusion.

Anderson only predicted that Chen Mu would be reliable, but no one expected that the result would be so outrageous!

"Damn it! What on earth did that brat do here?!"

That day, the evening wind in the forest echoed with the angry roar of the man in the trench coat.

But all this has nothing to do with Chen Mu.

He's just a pitiful, weak, helpless, and slightly slutty young bounty hunter.

Returning to Bobinhan City, he said goodbye to the rented Kentero in the countryside. After entering the city, Chen Mu took a public carriage back to his home. He didn't even bother to take a shower and rest first, and immediately dug out all the things he had collected previously. auxiliary materials, and can’t wait to start the deployment of energy cubes.

He had prepared the tools in advance, and the process steps for making energy cubes were copied on a piece of paper. He studied while operating.

The method of making the energy cube was written down after he set out to look for books at the National Library in Queens.

In this era, reading was a luxury enjoyed by the upper class. Books were generally very expensive, and even borrowing books from the library required a guarantor.

It is obviously impossible for an unemployed person like Chen Mu from Xiacheng District to be eligible to borrow books.

So he could only go to the National Library to read books, write them down, and then come back and write them down silently on paper.

This is tiring and troublesome, but Chen Mu is used to it.

All his self-study tasks in the past three years were completed in this way.

In such a bad era, it is much more difficult for people at the bottom to become a real trainer than ordinary people imagine.

But Chen Mu persisted until now for the obsession in his heart.

And today, he is finally very close to his goal!

But the more it gets to this point, the more he can stay calm.

"For the first preparation, we will make a smaller dose first, and then prepare the wound medicine. Your safety is our top priority."

Chen Mu communicated with Soraya while configuring.

Secret methods are different from potions in that they are not formed at once.

Even quick fixes often require repeated practice.

All the skills of the elves are related to energy, and the essence of the secret method is actually to allow the elves to quickly adapt to excessive extraordinary energy in a short period of time, either to learn to control it, or to be eroded by it, seriously injured or poisoned to death.

In a natural environment, even extremely powerful ghost elves would not dare to swallow the entire Soul-Destroying Grass easily. The energy inside is violent, disordered, and extremely poisonous.

Normally, elves should guard this grass, slowly adapt to it over the years, and try it repeatedly in small quantities until they are completely adapted to it, digest it, master it, and finally guide this energy to derive their own unique skills and moves.

This process should have taken a long time, ranging from ten or even decades.

But the secret method is a quick fix!

Humans have used their own intelligence to greatly accelerate this process!

Through a reasonable combination of materials, we can lock the violent energy in the soul-breaking grass, suppress its toxicity, and then boldly drip some of the juice directly on the forelimbs with open wounds, so that the elf can feel how this energy is close to the tip of his claws. The restlessness erodes the limbs.

Finally swing your claws hard!

Until exhaustion.

During this process, the elves' understanding of shadow energy and enchanted claw strikes will quickly improve!

But no one can guarantee that such an exercise will be successful the first time.

No one can predict whether the elf will learn the skill first, or whether the poison will destroy the elf's forelimbs first.

The secret method, the quick method, is a big gamble!

And as the last moisture evaporates.

Chen Mu's energy cube was finally prepared.

Gambling is about to begin!
