Gardener Mage Notebook

"Now we don't even know where we are." Brian's original hopeful mood disappeared immediately, and now he really had to rely on himself.

Merlin looked up at the towering trees around him, and after looking at them for a while, he squatted down to touch the thick moss under the roots. The man-eating vine climbed up the tree, and perched on the trunk like a chameleon, serving as a sentry tower.

"Big brother, what did you see?" Clara blinked and stared at Merlin. Merlin is a magician of the wood department, so he should be able to recognize where this place is based on the topography and landforms, right?

"I didn't see anything." Merlin shook his head.

"...Okay." Clara was frustrated, he shouldn't have expected from Merlin!I knew that this kind of natural stay was the most difficult to do!

"You can't do anything here, since you're here, let's go." Brian said with a frown.

"Tch, after talking so much, it still depends on the sense of direction in the end." Clara said disdainfully.

"Do you have a better way, Prince?" Brian laughed, no less than Clara.

"Stop! The assessment is just starting now, don't start arguing now." Merlin spoke in time to prevent a quarrel from happening.

"Hmph!" Clara turned her head and ignored Brian.

Brian looked away equally uncomfortably.

"Juliet, which direction do you want to go?" Merlin squatted down, patting the man-eating vine that came down from the tree at some time.

Hey~ Juliet has received Merlin's full trust, and joyfully raised a bunch of tentacles and pointed in one direction.

"Okay, let's go." Merlin said after turning around and packing up the picnic equipment and putting them into the space ring.

"Big brother, can this vine demon really know the way?" Clara looked suspiciously at the man-eating vine with its fangs and claws.

"It's better than trusting your sense of direction." Brian put away the fruit, since Merlin had already had breakfast, so don't waste his fruit.

"Your sense of direction is not much better." Clara said contemptuously.

"Okay, let's go." Merlin said after packing up his things.

Led by the man-eating vine, a group of people set out to the depths of the primeval forest.

Meanwhile Limsha:

The vigorous figures of the dragons flew over the city, and the five dragon knights returned from their missions with their beloved dragons.

After returning to the knight camp and handing in the mission, Rex went straight to Merlin's dormitory. After being away for nearly two weeks, Rex was eager to return home.

When Rex walked into Merlin's dormitory, he found that there was no one there.

Rex frowned, and the breath of Merlin in the air was so faint that it almost disappeared, not even the man-eating vines and the family of the sharp-tailed luminous bee were there.

Rex looked at the environment of the room. The quilt on the bed was neatly folded, and all the items were placed as if the owner had just gone on a trip.

Rex walked to Merlin's desk. There were still two magic books on the desk. The ink on the quill had long since dried up. A series of dates were neatly marked on the notepad next to it. Still there, with the date of his return marked in red letters.An envelope was stuck in the notepad, with a section exposed.

Rex pulled out the envelope, and the recipient's name on it gave Rex a chill.

"Dear son, because Xiao Meilin is going to participate in the assessment of the Mage Tower, and I happen to be one of the many examiners in the Mage Tower, so I borrowed Xiao Meilin for a while. The original will be returned, so please be patient during this time without Little Merlin! Huh? You ask me where I kidnapped Little Merlin? I will definitely not tell you that he is in the forest where you were born of!

Love you: Katrina. "

"..." Rex crumpled the letter in his hand, he really couldn't take his mother lightly!

The author has something to say: The beginning of a hilarious adventure in the tropical rainforest...?

Continue to update at night, and make up for the things that fell a few days ago (the recent schedule is extremely unreasonable!!)

74 Meet on a narrow road

As the day went down, the night fog began to permeate the forest, and the forest at night was darker and more dangerous than during the day.

Clara found a leeward cave, and the three of them huddled together in the small cave. Brian was in charge of lighting the fire, Clara started cooking the hunted monsters, and Merlin was helping.

The three-day jungle adventure made the three of them somewhat embarrassed. Clara, who was thought to be the most pampered among the three, turned out to be the one who was most adapted to living in the jungle, which really opened the eyes of Merlin and Brian.

"The brisket of the porcupine is the most delicious part, so it's delicious without adding too much spice~" Clara inserted the cooked porcupine and put it on the campfire to roast.

"Clara, you are amazing." Merlin sighed while stringing mushrooms.

"That's~ it's better than some guy who can only make fire~" After three days of getting along, Clara has already practiced a good eloquence to mock Brian.

"..." Brian frowned deeply, and finally fell silent. Compared with survival skills in the wild, Clara is indeed better than him.

Merlin looked up at the jungle outside the cave. The temperature had already started to drop. After all, it was spring, and the temperature would have been lower. The moisture in the jungle was high, and the temperature dropped even more at night.Juliet has rough skin and thick flesh. It hangs upside down at the entrance of the cave as a curtain and guard, and its swaying tentacles swallow passing insects from time to time.

"We've been walking for three days, and we haven't encountered any other teams. Is the direction wrong?" Brian threw a piece of wood, and the fire made a crackling sound.

"The cliff we passed yesterday should be the line of sky marked on Clara's map." Merlin brushed the mushrooms with some oil and began to roast them.

"If you can't meet other teams, how can you grab the map?" Clara said with a headache.Although they have Merlin in their team, the problem is that Merlin is determined by default. He is not necessarily able to enter the Mage Tower no matter what, let alone Brian.

"There will always be." Brian looked outside silently, not knowing which group Louis was assigned to.

"Brother, what do you think if we run into Louis's team?" Clara also thought of this question.

"Well...let's fight." Merlin said seriously.This is respect for Louis. If the water is released, that person will probably be angry. After all, no one wants to be underestimated.

"...Brother, you really don't have any troubles at all." Clara raised her feet and sighed, but he liked the answer.When they actually met, he didn't know much about friendship.Louis can be brought back to the palace at any time, but there is only one chance to qualify for the mage tower.

Hearing the conversation between the two, Brian just frowned. If he really wanted to confront Louis, what would he do?Out of the corner of Brian's eye, he glanced at Clara. How strong is Clara hiding under the playful skin?

Sensing Brian's gaze, Clara couldn't help but smile, the nearest stumbling block was still peeping at her, but she had to be careful not to be tripped.

No matter how turbulent the fighting spirit between Brian and Clara was, at least on the surface it was peaceful.

After Merlin finished eating the roasted wild boar, the three of them discussed the time of vigil and began to rest. For magicians with poor physical conditions, trekking through the jungle would make them exhausted.

The bonfire gradually became smaller, and Merlin squatted at the entrance of the cave, wrapped in a blanket, throwing a piece of wood from time to time to keep the fire burning.

The man-eating vine lay obediently on Merlin's lap, and Merlin trimmed some of the aging thorns on the man-eating vine's tentacles for the man-eating vine.The movement for several days made the tentacles of the man-eating vine harder, the original light-colored rhizomes became darker, and the touch became rough.

"Thank you for your hard work." Merlin cut off the last thorn and said.

The man-eating vine just shook its head and lay on its stomach enjoying it. It was really great that there were no gay poisonous bee family to disturb its relationship with its master.

In Merlin's eyes, the night in the dense forest was very lively, with various unknown insects screaming one after another, and occasionally flying insects drifted by his side, and were thrown to the ground by the tentacles of the man-eating vine.

If you disturb its time with its master, even the food will die!

After dealing with the old thorn, Merlin took out a small stone and polishing tools from the space ring, and began to polish it bit by bit.

In Arird, if the boys have a sweetheart, they will go to the Forest of Wind near Arird to find a crystal clear stone and give it to the sweetheart after polishing.Merlin searched for a long time in Limsha's commercial street before finding a stone he was satisfied with. It was solid black with faint golden textures, much like Rex's eyes.And Merlin also planned to grind the stone into a suitable size for wearing.

Merlin looked at the keel ring on his hand, Rex had already given him a ring, so he had to give Rex a ring too.

A blush crept across Merlin's cheeks, if only Rex liked it.

The bonfire was crackling, and Merlin's figure seemed particularly slender in the fading firelight.

The crescent moon in the night sky was covered by dark clouds, the dense forest was covered by large shadows, and the sound of insects seemed to be quieter...

Rustle--the night wind blows the leaves and makes a sound.

Merlin fought back his drowsiness. This time has already passed Merlin's rest hour, the biological clock was broken, and drowsiness bugs kept flooding his head like a tide.

The man-eating vine didn't feel sleepy at all. A few tentacles drove away the bugs that disturbed Merlin from time to time, and the other tentacles penetrated into the ground.
