The Holy Maiden of Light Wants To Change Jobs - Chapter 73
Klein Forest.
Ann was left behind by Silvia at the hotel, and if something happened, it would be a matter of seconds at his speed.
Tom stayed with him. He didn’t want to go back to Eschenna, so Sylvia asked him to stay with Ann. After all, she didn’t know what would happen on the way to Klein Forest this time. Hurt, then she will never forgive herself.
So, now it’s Sylvia, Laney and Kloris who are heading towards their first goal.
Probably because of the fire just a few months ago, I can still smell a burnt stench, and large swathes of burnt wood are lying on top of each other.
The cause of the fire is still unknown, only that the Aksu Empire invited at least a hundred high-level water magicians at that time, and it took at least one day and one night to put out the fire.
It’s just that, because of this fire, almost half of the Kelin Forest has been destroyed. It will take a few years to restore its former vitality without human intervention.
After all, it is a well-known forest in its own country, but I heard that the Aksu royal family has been gathering wood magicians recently, and they will come here when they are almost there.
However, because of the above reasons, not many people came to the Kelin Forest during this time, and they could occasionally meet some in the periphery. The more they went inside, the quieter they became.
“Not right.”
Cloris frowned, his current strength is already a demigod, and with the accumulation of thousands of years, his strength is slightly better than Sylvia.
Sylvia nodded, “It’s too quiet.” She also discovered this, and has been investigating the surrounding situation.
Even the forest that has just been burned by the fire is too quiet here, not even the basic sounds of birds and insects. You must know that these small creatures have a strong vitality.
They can’t be considered deep in the forest now, and there are no traces of high-level magical beasts around, so it’s obviously wrong to be so quiet.
“I’ll try it.” Instead of making people wonder and guess, it’s better to try it directly.
Sylvia raised her right hand, and then quickly slashed down like a knife, and an invisible force quickly dispersed around.
Silently, as if she just made a random movement just now, Cloris and Lan Yinlai did not make a sound, they waited quietly.
One minute, two minutes, three minutes…
Four minutes later, Sylvia spoke, “There are no creatures here, only us and those who should exist.” That is, the people who came to the forest to explore.
It was just like this when I sensed it roughly, and after Sylvia’s careful investigation, I really found that with them as the center, there was no breath of living creatures within 10,000 meters.
No matter how far away, Sylvia is still exploring, but this alone is not right.
“The fire was not an ordinary fire, it seemed to be a dead fire,” Sylvia said again.
Under the fire of death, nothing is born.
As the Holy Maiden of Light, she didn’t feel death aura when she entered the forest, but she needed such a careful investigation to have any guesses.
Because there is too little death energy exposed outside, there may be more in general cemeteries than here, but this is not normal. After a fire, I don’t know how many creatures died. This kind of death energy is impossible.
Until Sylvia probed further down, the more she could find the deep-rooted death qi.
There’s something weird about this forest.
Sylvia didn’t believe that the Aksu royal family didn’t know the strangeness of the fire, but probably because they were afraid of causing riots, they didn’t announce the news and only treated it as an ordinary forest fire.
In this case, it is no wonder that several months have passed, and not enough wood-based mages have been collected.
What they lack is not the wood-type mages, but the Guangming believers above the level of the Guangming Archbishop. Only with their power of light can they completely remove this residual but deeply rooted death qi.
Otherwise, if you want to wait for it to dissipate naturally, it will take at least ten years. During this period, nothing will grow in this forest and there will be no living things.
But now the Aksu Empire belongs to the power of the Church of Darkness, and the king himself did not dare to ask for help from the Church of Light without authorization.
Sylvia did an investigation before coming to Aksu, and didn’t mention it. It’s very likely that the king didn’t even say anything about the Dark Church.
If it was just an ordinary forest fire, it really wouldn’t have caught the attention of the church’s top brass.
“I’m afraid there is something or someone behind this death.” Sylvia quickly came to a conclusion.
It is estimated that the dead fire was not put out by the group of water magicians. Maybe it was just a good time, and the fire needed to be “extinguished”.
Cloris and Sylvia glanced at each other. He knelt directly on one knee on the ground, his right hand pressed against the scorched earth on the ground, and a force quickly probed down along the soil.
After a while, Cloris withdrew his hand, “There is something collecting death energy, and it is surrounded by magic circles. I am afraid that I will startle the snake, and I will not go deep.”
Kloris Rinkong drew a map with magic power, indicating the approximate range of the thing he detected in Sylvia, “It looks like a depth of 13,000 kilometers.”
The underground world is a very dangerous world. In addition to many unknown mutant monsters, there are also many powerful monsters who like to dig deep holes and bury them when they sleep.
If you accidentally disturb them, it will definitely let you know how scary it is to get out of bed.
So exploring the underground is much harder than exploring the surface.
The depth that Kloris said was not easy if there were monsters beside him, or it would not be easy for someone who could put things there.
The two discussed the map seriously. At this time, Lan Yinlai seemed to have nothing to do. He first glanced at Sylvia, and after she didn’t respond, she looked around, like a useless guy just messing around.
“I can go down and investigate first.”
“No, I have something to hide myself better.”
“It is very likely that the necromancer did the collection of death energy.”
“This possibility is not impossible.”
…
One sentence at a time, while saying that Sylvia and Cloris did not stop, and gradually approached the point that Cloris said.
The concentration of Death Qi here is indeed higher than before, but it is still not obvious.
“I’ll go down first, and you’ll pick up when you’re there.” Sylvia didn’t wait for Cloris to say anything, and an instant person disappeared on the ground, and it seemed that he had already gone down.
Cloris’s normally normal temperament immediately turned indifferent, exuding an aura that no strangers should approach, and did not mean to greet Lan Yinlai at all.
It just so happened that Lan Yinlai didn’t mean to chat.
The space quickly quieted down, and there were two people standing there, but they didn’t feel any breath at all, like two statues.
Sylvia on the other side was about 5,000 meters underground first. There was a protective shield around her to help her isolate something.
But she can still feel that the temperature here can completely bake an ordinary person.
There is magma flowing not far from her left hand, and not far away there is a karst flower, which only grows deep in the magma, a precious fire-attribute magic material.
Sylvia moved her fingers lightly, and the flower reached her hand.
She has just lost a large amount of property, and she can make up a little bit. Speaking of which, if she has time, she can indeed do a good search.
But right now, it’s still a matter of business.
In addition to not wanting him to take risks and respond, Sylvia did not let Cloris follow him, and another important reason was that he could use the power of light.
The nemesis of death is the power of light.
Especially the pure power of light like Sylvia.
Eight kilometers, it was dark.
Nine kilometers away, there is a sleeping monster, be careful to avoid it.
At 12,000 kilometers, she could already feel the strong death energy not far away, but she was bound by something. They couldn’t break free, but instead, strands of death energy continued to be replenished from all directions.
Sylvia approached another 500 meters, and the huge hole appeared in front of her eyes. A gray-white bead emitted a strong death energy in the center of the hole. Surrounded by a powerful magic circle, if one accidentally touched it. …
The Pearl Destroyer is probably not much better.
The people who designed these are cruel and willing.
Sylvia has read a lot of magic circle books over the years, and many of them are the only collections of the two religions, but even so, there are still one or two circles here that have not been recognized.
Did she go back first to discuss with Cloris and the others?
Sylvia walked around the void, and after writing down every detail, she was in a flash again, and people had appeared in front of the two “statues”.
“Go back first, things are a bit complicated.”
After setting up a hidden barrier here, Sylvia and his party quickly returned to the hotel.
She met Ann and Tom’s suspicious eyes, waved her hand, and the underground scenes emerged clearly in front of everyone.
“I suspect that there is more than one place for this thing.”
Sylvia shared her guess when everyone saw it.
It is not easy to set up such a scene, but in the same way, what do people with this strength collect death energy for?
Moreover, such dangerous protective measures were also set up, and no one could get the beads, or let anyone know the secrets of the beads.
for what? Is it just this place?
If not, there are too many things involved.
Cloris can understand what Sylvia means. He has lived a long time. Although he is a resident, he does know a lot of things. If he guesses correctly, this one is…
“Dead Spirit Orb.”
It was Lan Yinlai who spoke, “Its function is to collect dead energy, and when it turns completely white, it will be the day of success.”
“The biggest effect of the formed necromantic beads is to destroy.”
“If one throws it away, not to mention Aksu City, the entire Aksu Empire will turn into ashes.”
Lan Yinlai’s words made Sylvia immediately think of the super-killing nuclear weapon in her previous world.
She also remembered a few words about this thing in some sealed documents of the Church of Light, but she just didn’t correspond for a while.
Well, now it is determined that the person behind it has a great plan, and there is a great chance that there are several such places.
I just don’t know how many undead beads are in the hands of the person behind it. If the plan has been going on for a long time…
“It’s just that the training method and semi-finished product of this bead have already been destroyed by the miracle of the God of Light, so how can it still exist?”
Sylvia remembered the ending of the Necronomicon again. When she said this, she looked at Lan Yinlai. It was all 10,000 years ago. At that time, the two gods of light and darkness had already… God died. ?
Lan Yinlai raised the corners of his mouth, “Perhaps, it’s a robbery?”
