After Being Fancied by a Necromancer - Chapter 39
After lunch, Cyril didn’t hurry, but rested for a while by the stream.
He wondered why he hadn’t seen the others.
Is it because the freshmen are separated and each one enters a separate secret realm? That’s a waste of secrets, isn’t it?
In the evening, Cyril cooked round eggs for dinner.
The taste is pretty good, the egg whites are soft and tender, and the egg yolks are fragrant.
Then, Cyril cooked a fragrant mushroom soup with a sizable hard eggshell.
Of course, he didn’t forget to add “colorful peppers”.
When eating grilled fish before, Cyril took great care to note down the taste of each color of peppercorns.
This time, he managed to get a creamy mushroom soup with only a few white peppercorns in the soup.
When Cyril finished his dinner, the splendid afterglow of the sunset completely disappeared from the sky.
The dark night swept over, and the forest became more fantastic and mysterious under the gloomy moonlight.
Cyril didn’t plan to take the risk of a night walk in the forest.
Therefore, he found a huge tree hole, briefly cleaned the tree hole under the light of the night flint, and moved some weeds to the hole of the tree hole as a cover.
So hastily dealt with the past on the first night.
The sun rose as usual the next day.
Cyril walked in the direction of the system navigation, thinking about where to make his breakfast.
Suddenly, he seemed to hear someone talking, and he hurriedly walked in that direction.
Cyril opened a bush, and saw a man and a bird in a passionate confrontation not far away.
Big eyes on each other, eyes never blinking, the scene is very tense.
The man was a tall, neckless young man wearing a wide black cloak.
Cyril immediately recognized this cloak as the “protective cloak” that was popular in the grocery store.
Judging from its color, this piece on his body is probably an advanced protective cloak worth 550 Wujing – at present, it is obviously powerless against physical attacks.
The bird was covered in red feathers, with a slender and curved neck and a sharp beak.
The bright red sharp beak looks like it can pierce its prey instantly.
Red Bird is now stunned in place for some reason, seems to be struggling with where to start.
Cyril caught a glimpse of the fat guy’s forehead with a large bead of sweat, and the familiar white bracelet on his hand.
He instantly realized that this person was also a freshman who participated in the wizard apprentice grading trial!
So, Cyril immediately took out his wand and planned to help him.
The red bird keenly sensed the danger from the other direction, flapping its wings and dodging the fireball from the tip of Cyril’s wand.
Unexpectedly, the fat guy’s eyes lit up at this time, he responded quickly, moved boldly and very creatively.
It’s too late, it’s too soon.
He immediately stretched out his hand, bowed left and right, grabbed the red bird’s neck with one hand, and tightly hooped the sharp beak with the other hand, making the red bird unable to open its mouth, and then—he slapped his **** Sitting on the body of the red bird!
A set of actions is smooth and unpredictable.
Cyril twitched and rolled his eyes as he watched the red bird under his ass.
Sure enough, in the face of weight, any fighting skills are clouds!
Cyril slapped her hands and praised her in awe.
Red Bird was helpless in the face of the huge tonnage of the opponent.
The neck of fate was strangled again, and her life was hanging by a thread.
The strength of its wings flapping is getting smaller and smaller, and finally it rolled its eyes and stopped moving at all.
The fat guy stood up, walked to Cyril, and sincerely thanked Cyril.
He was so tall that Cyril had to look up at him.
“Hey, thanks, man!”
He showed a simple and honest smile, his eyes curved into two arcs.
“I’m Robert Pearson! I’m from the mainland of Illus, just call me Robert! I was brought to Whalefall Island by the wizard of the Black Marsh Wizarding Academy, Accidentally, I should go to this wizarding academy.”
He said, scratching his head.
Robert has short brown curly hair, very fluffy, which stretches freely around the top of his head, which is very striking.
“Hello, Robert! I’m Cyril Lawrence, from the continent of Atlantis. I’ll probably go to Snowberg Wizarding Academy.”
Cyril nodded at him and introduced himself as well.
“I just came out of the illusion today.”
Robert sighed in relief.
Thinking of the terrifying environment before, he shuddered.
Cyril was also interested when he heard what he said, his eyes full of anticipation waiting for the other party’s next sentence.
Robert saw the little friend he just met who was very curious about his fantasy, so he swallowed and continued: “My fantasy is a terrifying ghost world, full of weirdness. Weird ghost, terrifying shape! I can only hit the air with a punch.”
He paused, wiped his face, and continued: “What’s worse, there is no food in that ghost world! I’ve been hungry for four days! Merlin! I’m glad I’m still alive! I feel like I’ve lost weight from hunger. I’m hungry enough to eat a cow now!”
Cyril opened his eyes again when he heard the words, and he looked at Robert’s tall and sturdy body.
Tsk, so scary.
This is what Robert looked like after losing a lot of weight. I don’t know how majestic he was before.
When it comes to food, though.
Cyril glanced at the red bird at Robert’s feet, it was full of meat, it couldn’t be wasted.
[System, can this bird eat it? ]
He quietly communicated with the system in his mind.
[Of course! 】
The system instantly gave the information of this red bird:
[Name: Firewing Bird
Use: Edible
How to use: fry, fry, paste, cook, fry, leaven are all good
Description: Firewing bird is good at attacking the opponent’s neck with its sharp beak. For every neck bitten off in this forest, not a single flamingo is innocent!
However, this Firewing bird with a brilliant record in the first half of its life has just encountered a bird’s body of Waterloo! It never imagined that it would not be able to hold the other party’s neck – that’s because the other party didn’t have a neck at all! At that moment, Firewing Bird’s brain was blank, unable to move under the impact of the fact that the opponent had no neck. 】 Cyril twitched his forehead.
This terrible truth he really did not expect at all.
“This flamingo is edible. I just have some seasonings here. Let’s eat it together.”
Cyril looked at Robert and invited him to cook together.
Afterwards, Cyril discovered that Robert was a real chef.
The action of the other party handling food is not as cumbersome as his body looks, but unexpectedly neat.
And, Robert has adopted a new cooking method – even with mud wrapped flamingo barbecue.
Cyril is looking forward to this approach.
The two continued to chat while waiting for the food to cook.
“You seem to arrive a lot earlier than me! Was your illusion before that terrible?”
Robert also asked curiously.
“Maybe it’s okay? I’m in a tower, trying to get out of the tower… This forest I came to yesterday morning.”
Cyril said vaguely.
“Are there other people in your fantasy world? I mean, living people other than ghosts? Or ghosts who act and speak like real people?”
Cyril asked casually.
“No, just some ghosts that make all kinds of strange roaring noises…I think they may be thinking about our ability to survive alone and stay awake in the face of fear in the first level of fantasy.”
Perhaps meeting a freshman who could use fireball gave him courage, and Robert explained his fantasy in more detail, and at the same time used a branch to fiddle with the huge mud block in the fire , so analyzed.
“Like this…”
Cyril still had some doubts in his heart, what happened to the “Scott” who could talk and change emotions like a real living person in his tower fantasy?
So the living snake essence disease is not like a simple ghost or ghost without thinking logic…
“I estimate that when more people come out of the illusion and enter the forest, the forest will become dangerous.”
Robert was not a man of limbs and a simple mind, and he quickly made a judgment based on Cyril’s information on elemental concentrations and forests.
“We have to go to the place with higher element concentration as soon as possible and enter the core of the circle.”
Robert concluded.
However, dry rice should be done well.
Robert picked out the mud in the flames and peeled it off carefully, revealing the fragrant and tender flamingo simmering inside.
He gave Cyril the two large legs and wings very thoughtfully.
The roasted flamingo with colorful peppers was firm and tender, and Cyril felt full after eating the two large bird legs.
He hiccupped happily.
Robert confirmed to Cyril that he was indeed full and that he was not eating, and then swallowed the rest of the meat into his stomach, with the same neat and familiar movements.
Cyril looked at Robert’s stomach like a bottomless pit in awe, and felt that he had mastered the success code to grow taller and stronger – dry rice!
They finished their breakfast soon and continued on their way.
Robert is a good partner, not only has good cooking skills, but also has great courage and finesse.
He is willing to trust Cyril who wears a black and white mask and can’t see his true face, and is willing to follow the direction given by Cyril and take the lead.
They traveled all the way without encountering other new students.
Cyril and Robert successfully walked out of this forest two days later and came to an endless prairie.
Cyril looked at the white bracelet on his wrist, and now a number – “2” appeared on it.
“2” should refer to the second layer of the secret circle structure.
Now they have entered a new layer that is closer to the core of the Rift.
[The concentration of elements here is one level higher than that of the forest, which means that there will be more aura and more dangerous creatures. ] The system reminded.
Cyril nodded, clutching his wand tightly in his hand.
He also immediately expressed this point of view to Robert, and at the same time raised his wrist, motioning him to look at his white bracelet.
“No wonder I feel more active after entering the grassland.”
Robert suddenly realized that the white bracelet on his wrist also displayed the number “2”.
He closed his eyes and felt the surrounding elements.
“The concentration of elements here is indeed very high, much higher than the concentration of elements in the previous forest! Cyril, I really have you!”
Robert grinned and praised.
“Now please let me help!”
After Robert finished speaking, he took out a very inconspicuous, dusty little cloth bag from the pocket of his cloak.
However, Cyril was sharp-eyed and realized that this small cloth bag was the retractable storage bag he had seen in the grocery store before, and it cost a full 880 witch crystals.
Robert went on to take two red-crowned yellow chickens, which Cyril was very familiar with, from the retractable storage bag, and put one into his protective cloak pocket, the other hold in hand.
Then, he motioned to Cyril to hold this rough toy-like little yellow chicken with him.
“It’s not easy to hide on the prairie. When we see danger, we will hold this screaming chicken together. It has a certain attacking effect.”
Robert said briefly.
Cyril glanced at the screaming chicken with 80 Wu Jing in his hand, hesitated for a while, but couldn’t help but ask: “Robert, I mean, use the words of the screaming chicken now, If there is any danger after that, it will be difficult to do… I guess the more dangerous it is to go to places with high elemental concentrations.”
“No problem! No problem!”
Robert smiled shyly, scratched his head again, and said a little embarrassedly: “It’s okay, I also bought a dozen screaming chickens.”
As he spoke, he took out a small gray stretchable cloth bag to show Cyril the results of his purchases.
Cyril choked when he heard this, and he looked at Robert with a very complicated look.
My dear, it is poverty that limits his imagination!
I didn’t expect this big brother to be a kryptonite player.
80Wu Jing’s screaming chicken said to buy, buy, buy a dozen, just like buying cheap brown bread.
But soon, Cyril felt the wonderful feeling of burning witch crystals.
There are indeed more creatures appearing on the prairie from time to time, and the creatures can also keenly perceive the “intruder” breath on Cyril and the others.
Many creatures quietly followed behind the two of them.
But the two people holding the screaming chicken were not panic.
I plan to wait until a large number of creatures are collected before launching the magic sound attack of screaming chickens to take them away!
Cyril watched with admiration after the screaming chicken was pinched, opened his mouth and screamed wantonly for about two minutes.
Because they were holding the screaming chicken, they couldn’t hear the indiscriminate attack equivalent to 15 magic power, but the creatures that followed were all fleeing under the attack of the magic sound.
“Intruders” don’t talk about martial arts!
In the first day on the grassland, Cyril and the others used 3 screaming chickens.
I even picked up a few rabbits dazed by the magic sound as food, used the red particles in the “colorful pepper”, and ate the spicy rabbit head.
Cyril and Robert found a place where night rested before nightfall, a triangular cave formed by several large stones piled together.
They lit a fire in the cave, and the two took turns to keep vigil.
The night was uneventful and they continued on their way the next day.
Cyril found that along the way, the grass on the road became thinner and thinner, the weather seemed to be getting hotter and hotter, and the water vapor in the air was gradually decreasing.
He had an unpleasant feeling in his heart.
Third day.
After using 9 screaming chickens, the two stood on a desert and looked at each other.
What they saw in front of them was a long yellow sand, the color was poor and monotonous.
Further, rolling sand and gravel hills.
The vast desert seems to have no end in sight.
A round sun hangs high in the air, exuding a trace of warmth.
Robert was wearing a thick cloak and felt like he was sweating profusely.
The prairie is thicker again.”
“It’s really a toss up!”
Cyril sighed.
He also felt that under the strong sunlight, the heat wave hit and the heat lingered.
Sweat oozes from her cheeks and body, and sweats profusely.
Robert had taken off his protective cloak and coat, Cyril had also taken off his coat, and rolled up the sleeves of his shirt.
However, the heat is still pervasive, and the sand under my feet seems to be smoking under the strong sunlight.
“Not quite right.”
Cyril stopped, panting.
“If we continue like this, we won’t be able to go very far. In addition, no creatures have attacked us yet. If we encounter powerful creatures again, we will have nothing to deal with in our current state. Capability. There should be something that allows us to move freely in the desert.”
Cyril said while thinking.
[System, detects nearby magic fluctuations. ]
He blinked and asked for Goldfinger’s help.
If as Robert guessed.
Illusion is to consider the ability of the wizard apprentice to survive alone and stay awake in the face of fear. The first circle of forests without much danger should be to test the ability of the wizard apprentice to discover the core direction of the secret realm.
All belong to a certain quality of a wizard apprentice.
As for the desert in the third circle…
Cyril felt that if he wanted to cross the desert to reach the fourth circle closer to the core of the secret realm as before, he must find a breakthrough, rather than simply do it.
[There is a magic wave in front of you, about 200 meters away in a straight line. ] The system quickly came to a conclusion.
[Navigate. ]
Cyril took a deep breath and beckoned Robert to follow.
When they walked to the place where the magic power fluctuated, they found that it was a clear spring in the shape of a crescent moon.
They approached this pool of water cautiously, vigilantly paying attention to the dangers around them.
When Cyril walked to Qingshui, the system also gave the identification:
[Name: Crescent Moon Spring
Uses: Quench your thirst, manage your satiety, and don’t have to worry about eating in the desert.
How to use: Drink directly
Description: Drink 100ml of Crescent Moon Spring water, you will be the most beautiful cub in the desert! The vast desert walks sideways! 】 Cyril’s eyes lit up.
However, when he wanted to reach for water, a black snake with a thick triangular head suddenly appeared.
