Mage? Spell Engineer!

Things haven't changed for the better.

After dealing with these monsters, the investigation team inspected the entire village ruins. There are scorch marks on the moss, mycelium, vines and trees. It is obvious that a fire destroyed everything.

The eternal night in the core area of ​​the forest has not been lifted, and the shielded induction of Master Humboldt and other Forest Tower apprentices has not been released either.

Rorschach suddenly realized that the eternal night here might correspond to the eternal day in the secondary plane.

The forest returned to tranquility, but it was by no means peaceful. At this point, no other animals appeared, and the forest owl that Archmage Humboldt had summoned flew away with a coo.

"It says that the forest is terrible inside, and we are terrible." Humboldt's expression was as cold as ice as he translated.

Everyone's mood was a bit low.

"There is a dirt bag here." Cavendish thought about digging it up, but Cobb stopped him.

"Boy, rest in peace." He patted Cavendish on the shoulder: "Let's search other places first. If there are no clues, we won't disturb these little elves."

"Elf? You mean."

"Master Cobb asked you not to dig the grave in a hurry." Rorschach pulled Cavendish aside, but he seemed to have heard Cobb also call the aboriginal friends here, you old man, you will live a long life this year. ?

After a preliminary search in the ruins on the surface, the team temporarily stopped and it was time for a long rest.

Just like in the secondary plane, in an environment where there is no change of day and night, it is easy for people to lose their sense of time. At this time, it is more necessary to rest according to the rules, especially after a battle, a battle that is not pleasant.

After decades, smoke rises here again. The trapped monster, which had been banging against the cage that restrained it, now stopped and stared blankly at the bonfire and pot.

Peterson thought of a question: "Should the little boy's body be kept here, or should it be taken back to his parents?"

"Although it's cruel, this place belongs to the elves. Let's bring him to his relatives." Rorschach felt that making up a "white lie" now would have no effect on the couple. If one day they couldn't think of anything, they would run to the depths of the forest. It hurts people again.

"The couple are still in the Orion village. There was no beast tide in the past two nights." Fortunately, Master Humboldt did not lose the connection with the clone, just like Mr. Copper's clone is now alive and kicking.

The milk in the hotel had been used up, so the emergency food was boiled in water and turned into a milky cereal paste, which was paired with bread. Fortunately, there was still bacon, otherwise it would just be carbon water with carbon water.

After dinner, Cavendish did another stargazing to ensure the accuracy of the "navigation map". The trees in the village were not so dense, so he did not need to bother building a high Rorschach earthen platform.

Rorschach unfolded the message scroll himself and continued to write to Kano. He also obtained some tissue samples of monsters and sent them over.

Peterson noticed Rorschach's movements: "Messaging scroll? Master Rorschach, you seem to be using it every day."

"Yeah, keep in touch with my mentor."

"But are you sending too frequently? The communication consumes a lot of energy for the main magic circle. The main magic circle inside the Forest Tower needs to be recharged every day after sending and receiving."

"Yeah, I'm watching the Magic Guild." Rorschach really doesn't know this, and he will continue to send it if he knows it. Anyway, he only has a portable port in his hand. Since Kano has given the summons address, he will just send it.

"Forget it, maybe the Tower of Stars has better research results in this area like the guild. Our Tower of Forest is really not good at it. The entire circuit system is an antique." Peterson shook his head and walked away.

Rorschach found that he dreamed of an uninhabited village. The short buildings had round roofs stacked with pottery shards. The bluestone walls were covered with vegetation, and the leaves trembled regularly in the moonlight.

The center and largest house in the village is the only one made of grass and trees. On the roof covered with leaves stands a deer-headed god. He looked in the direction of the giant tree without saying a word.

There is a deer pretending to be a master.

"You came at the right time." Rorschach said and walked forward. He felt that he was very happy to see Dryacs in his dream for the first time. He stopped complaining about pretending to be cool. There were many questions that required Lushou. God answers:

"What's going on with the monsters in the village? Why is it Eternal Night here? Is Master Humboldt's loss of sense related to the changes in the forest? What dangers are there in the giant trees and the core of the forest?"

Dryats thought for a moment and replied:

"These degraded wood spirit imitations only appeared after my death, and I don't know. Maybe the answer lies where I stand - according to the elves' convention, this is the residence of the elders and the center of the settlement. The elders are here Teach the knowledge and poetry of the elves.

The second question is that you have the answer in your heart. When desolation and reproduction are divided, the heavenly phases of yin and yang are also divided. However, originally the Land of Eternal Night was not as large as it is today, perhaps due to the chain impact of the changes in the Desolate Land.

The third question is, it turns out that among the druids and you and other spirit exorcists, those who practice the Druid way can drive the spirits and spirits of the forest because of your ability to sense. According to my understanding, there are two forces tugging in the forest, and this place has turned into a silent battlefield. According to the law of the giant tree, the forest is no longer open to others.

Finally, as the day approaches, I will tell you the truth: at the core of the forest, the giant oak carries my power of reproduction, ensuring that it will not be lost out of control and that the earth will remain full of vitality.

However, the power of reproduction has attracted an ancient surge of distorted power. The name of the owner of the power is unknown. He is still in the seal. He can only seep out a small force that is waiting to pollute the giant tree and contaminate the power that I lost in the past.

Originally, I just wanted to go back here to rest, but now the situation has changed. You send the last bit of my wandering soul to the source of the pollution, so that I can put an end to it all. If there is any danger, my blessings will keep you safe. "

After answering, the deer-headed god caused the moonlight to shine on himself, and the village disappeared bit by bit.

His voice gradually became ethereal: "Until the last moment comes, I must accumulate strength. The danger does not necessarily come from the outside world. I feel that there are servants of distortion and surge in your line, and the hidden aura makes me sick. "

"Peterson?"

Dryats nodded and disappeared into the moonlight.

I just made a random guess. When they first met and entered the forest, Peterson caught Rorschach's attention by praising his student Anastasia. Obviously, the guy didn't expect that Rorschach had met Tasia and obtained the Order. information.

The next performance of this man was mediocre. To this day, after the battle, everyone else was not energetic. Only he was particularly active and seemed to be excited about something.

In this way, the owner of the dirty power that the deer-headed god has been telling riddles and covering up can be revealed. At least Rorschach knows about his vest.

Rorschach woke up after Dryats disappeared. The night was still the same, and when he opened his eyes, only the intact villages were reduced to ruins. What made him even more uncomfortable was that he was awake both in and out of dreams. Although he was no longer tired or sleepy, he was not at all as comfortable as waking up naturally. He felt the same psychologically when he was asleep as when he was not asleep.

In addition to Peterson, will Ella, who has a high inspiration value, also have problems? He hesitated a little and decided to create an opportunity to contact Humboldt or Old Man Copper alone. After being eavesdropped by the Archbishop, he no longer had any trust in [Messaging Technique], especially when faced with the natural system, which was good at gnosis.

Seeing Peterson getting up earlier than himself, Rorschach secretly thought to himself that it was a pity that he crawled out of his sleeping bag.

"Old man, should we try to explore the underground of the village? I feel that the stone slab in the center of the village is quite abrupt." The stone slab Rorschach mentioned is the place where the child's body was placed, and it is also the remains of the elder's house - the ground is covered with vegetation. The building was completely stripped away, leaving only the square bluestone slab.

There will be another update in the evening! Acknowledgments will be placed in the third update
