Astral Apostle

Chapter 106 The Road2022-02-03Author: Qi Peijia  Chapter 106 The Road

  Under Roman's guidance, Zhou Jing tested for several days, and finally determined the matching elements of Bill, the astral apostle.

   is rock, flowing water, and strong wind, among which wind and soil have the highest adaptability.

   After thinking for a while, Zhou Jing finally chose Gust, focusing on developing this element, and using it was less conspicuous.

   After receiving Zhou Jing's reply, Roman did not delay. After arranging various matters in the base, he brought four guards and embarked on a journey to find the spirit of nature with Zhou Jing.

   Said to be searching, but Roman knew the location, and went straight with the team, with a clear destination.

  The territory of the Terra Empire has complex terrain, mainly divided into north and south, with mountains and forests in the north and plain basins in the south.

  Roman's base is located at the junction of the north and the south. The group went to the north. It took more than ten days to travel through mountains and waters and go deep into the wild before arriving at a steep mountain, which is locally known as the Wind Roaring Mountains.

   Walking in this mountain range, the cold wind is like a knife, and the bone-chilling cold seems to scrape the flesh. . .

   From time to time, you can hear the wind whistling like a ghost crying. The more you go to the peak, the higher the frequency.

  The people wore masks and felt hats, resisting the oncoming wind, and walked through the forest with difficulty.

  Xiaohei No. 1 followed Zhou Jing's feet, while the sword-tailed eagle stood on Zhou Jing's shoulder. He brought the eagle dog on this trip.

   "Lord Roman, why do we come to such a place?"

   The captain of the guard couldn't help but speak, his face full of embarrassment, and his words were incomprehensible.

   "Don't ask, just hurry." Roman waved his hand, not intending to answer.

   The other three guards looked at each other helplessly.

   They don't know about wizards, they just follow orders, but they don't know what Roman's intentions are, and they went to this wild mountain forest for no reason.

   However, Bill, the former chief pharmacist of the empire who just joined the team, came here, and the guards made up their minds, thinking that they were probably going to collect some rare herbs, so they had to suppress their inner confusion.

   The four are not Roman's most elite dark guards, they are all just one-time enhanced alien blood warriors.

   On weekdays, it was not their turn to defend Roman, but this time Roman expressed that he did not want to attract attention, so he brought these guards.

  Roman walked to Zhou Jing's side and asked with concern, "Master Bill, can you still hold on?"

   "I'm fine." Zhou Jing wrapped his clothes and sniffed deliberately.

   Although this astral apostle is not enhanced with different blood, the initial physique is still much higher than that of ordinary people. It is not a big problem in this cold field. But in front of Roman, Zhou Jing didn't want to show it, so he pretended to be frozen.

  Although it was noon at this time, the tree canopy was shaded, and the mountain forest lacked light, making it dark and cold, and the visibility was not high, which made people nervous.

   Zhou Jing glanced from side to side and whispered, "Do you have to have this kind of poor mountains and bad waters to have the spirit of nature?"

   "It's mostly like this. Only in a more extreme environment can the spirit of nature be born."

  Roman spread his hands, paused, and continued to explain in a low voice:

   "The destination of our trip is a certain cave at a peak. I have seen the spirit of nature there before. If it hadn't been merged by other wizards, it should still be there now."

   "I take the liberty to ask, how long ago did you discover it?"

   "Uh, twenty years?"

"Pretty."

   Zhou Jing was a little speechless.

   Is the memory from twenty years ago still reliable?

Roman shrugged: "I wasn't sure before I came here, but now I can tell that the spirit of nature here hasn't been taken away. The elemental vision can see the distribution of elements, and the spirit of nature is a high-concentration aggregation of elements, which will meet during actions. It leaves a special trace that remains for a long time, so it can be traced.”

   "Then I believe you." Zhou Jing nodded.

   He is not a serious wizard yet. He needs psychic ointment to open the elemental vision. The ritual is complicated, so he is not in this state at the moment, but Roman is leading the way.

  The crowd walked for a while, and suddenly there was a slight rustling sound in the woods, as if a large number of creatures were stepping on the dead leaves and approaching quickly.

  Xiao Hei No. 1 immediately fell to the ground, bared his teeth and let out a low growl.

   "Lord be careful!"

   The captain of the guard hurriedly pulled out his long sword and shield, and together with the other three guards, they guarded Roman and Zhou Jing in the middle, and looked vigilantly in the direction of the sound.

   Roman's face did not change color.

   At this moment, more than two dozen calf-sized cyan beasts rushed out of the forest and surrounded a few people.

  The fur is thick, the shape is like a tiger and a leopard, the two pairs of long canine teeth are extremely conspicuous, and a pair of crystal yellow beast pupils are ferocious.

"Long-toothed leopards, social creatures, although they are beasts, their combat power is not much weaker than some ordinary low-level alien beasts... Generally speaking, the normal long-toothed leopard group does not exceed ten, and there are more than twenty here, they should be It's a follower of a strange beast..."

   Zhou Jing whispered.

  Some powerful alien beasts have special habits, which may enslave beasts of the same biological species and become their followers.

   As soon as the voice fell, the ground shook slightly

I saw the grass in front of me lay down, and a black-purple giant leopard more than three meters high walked out. It was silent. From the neck along the spine, there was a black mane that stood up, like a black flame, and a long tail covered with Scale armor, like a spiked iron whip.

   A pair of red eyes, cruel and cold, stared at a few people, obviously treating them as food.

   "Okay, Black Flame Panther, a high-risk alien beast."

   Zhou Jing turned to look at Roman, as if asking with his eyes if you could handle it.

  Roman didn't look at him, just patted the guards and said:

   "Unfortunately, I encountered a strange beast, and it is up to you to deal with it."

  The four guards secretly swallowed their saliva, nervous in their hearts.

   They are not serious alien hunters and have limited experience in fighting alien beasts.

   There are more than 20 beasts, they can still deal with them, but if there is one more high-risk beast, it will be less fortunate.

   The captain of the guard complained in his heart that Roman took them to such a dangerous place, but it was of no avail until now.

   "Yes! Sir, hurry up!"

   The other three guards had sweaty palms.

   "We're in the forest, I'm afraid we won't be able to get rid of these beasts." Roman said casually, indifferently.

   At this moment, the black flame leopard let out a low roar, as if giving an order, and two dozen long-toothed leopards immediately rushed up from all directions.

"kill!"

   The four guards roared, wielding their weapons to slash the rushing leopard, trying to escape with Roman and Zhou Jing behind him.

   A long-toothed leopard charged up, and the sharp claws and sharp teeth slammed on the guard's shield, making a muffled sound.

The four alien-blooded warriors were strictly guarded, white knives went in and red knives came out, and many long-toothed leopards were chopped off and their stomachs were cut open. Howling beast.

   But there were so many beasts that the four of them could not resist all the attacks. From time to time, they were attacked by the long-toothed leopard, staggered by the beasts, and were torn and scratched.

  Xiaohei No. 1 surrounded Zhou Jing. Once a fish slipped through the net, it rushed up to bite and fight with the opponent.

   The black spotted hyena is far inferior in size and fighting power to the long-toothed leopard, but Xiao Hei No. 1 has been raised by Zhou Jing for a long time, and has taken countless medicines. Once you find an opportunity in the battle, you can use your **** skills to bite the enemy's key points, and you can win with one blow.

   And the sword-tailed eagle hovered in the air, swooping from time to time, like a sharp arrow that repeatedly shot, as long as it pecked the long-toothed leopard, it could leave a **** hole. The tail of the sword swept away, like a sharp blade, cutting through the flesh and blood of the long-toothed leopard. If a pair of eagle claws buckle the spine of a long-toothed leopard, it can directly tear off the bones of the enemy.

  As a low-level alien beast, the sword-tailed eagle's combat power is much higher than that of a dog.

   Although Zhou Jing has a physique that is higher than ordinary people, he can't deal with so many enemies. He just uses pets to help, but Roman, who is on the side, does not move.

   As the four of them fought hard, a dark shadow suddenly flashed past, as fast as an illusion.

"what!"

   Hearing a scream, the captain of the guard was knocked out by the Black Flame Panther. Before he could get up, he was pressed under the claws by the Black Flame Panther and struggled endlessly.

The captain of the guard clenched his teeth and waved his weapon, trying to stab the Black Flame Leopard's leg, forcing him to remove his claws, but at this moment, he saw the Black Flame Leopard open his **** mouth at him, and a red light ignited in his mouth .

  Whoo-poo!

   The black flame leopard suddenly spewed out surging red flames, engulfing the head of the guard captain.

The    fire lasted for a few seconds before it stopped, and the head of the guard captain had turned into a coke, and he couldn't die any longer.

"Oops!"

   lacked the backbone, and the remaining three guards were in chaos.

   The black flame leopard swept past again, biting a guard in half again.

   The remaining two guards could no longer resist, they were bitten to pieces by the swarming beasts, and their struggle became less and less.

   Zhou Jing turned his head to look at Roman: "Do you have to wait until all the guards are dead before you start?"

   "I don't want to show the power of a wizard in front of outsiders."

  Romain didn't care.

   This trip to find the spirit of nature may show the power of the wizard. He didn't want to leak the secret to too many people, so he didn't bring a large army.

But when two people travel, no one can be used, which is too troublesome, so he brought a group of marginal guards with weak strength, which is equivalent to finding a few followers to take care of the daily life. At the same time, when encountering some minor troubles, there is no need to take action personally, someone work for you.

   If it goes well, witchcraft is not necessary.

   But if you encounter some bigger dangers, you have to do it yourself, and you are unwilling to reveal the secret, then you have to sacrifice your hands... So it is convenient to bring some people with low value.

   Now that there is Bill, a master pharmacist, who has improved the alien blood potion, the number of alien blood warriors who will be strengthened in the future will greatly increase, so in Roman's eyes, it is not unusual to strengthen the alien blood warriors once, and it is not a pity to die in battle.

   Seeing that the four guards were dead and wounded, and it was confirmed that no one could leak the secret, Roman raised his hand, and a bunch of flames ignited in the palm of his hand.

   The next moment, a ring of fire suddenly spread.

  Boom——

   The dozen or so long-toothed leopards that were being slaughtered around were swept away by the ring of fire and ignited halfway.

"呜呜 -"

   The mournful roar of the beast suddenly resounded through the forest.

  The ultra-high temperature flame instantly melted the flesh and blood of more than a dozen long-toothed leopards, and the skeletons quickly became brittle and cracked in the flames.

  嘭嘭——

   A series of explosions suddenly sounded, and all the burning long-toothed leopards exploded, turning into coke that was full of embers and unquenched.

   Instant clearing!

  Gouzi was startled, and quickly got under Zhou Jing's crotch with an ooh, shivering.

   Seeing this scene, the Black Flame Leopard was terrified and roared, and suddenly opened its mouth and spewed out a flame, and went straight to the two of them.

  Roman's expression was calm, he quickly recited the flames shot halfway, and brought this fire into his control.

   In the next second, the flames poured backwards, and the original path rushed back into the throat of the Black Flame Panther.

   The skin of the black flame leopard's throat quickly brightened, bursting with red light, and the next moment it suddenly burned through and exploded.

  Plop!

   The Black Flame Leopard stumbled and fell, his throat was ruined, and he couldn't even scream when he opened his mouth.

  It kicked its legs and struggled to stand up, stumbled and was about to turn its head and run away.

  Roman was about to make up his knife when Zhou Jing suddenly whistled.

   "Bah!"

  I saw the sword-tailed eagle seize the opportunity, swooped down, and pecked at the fragile eye of the black flame leopard, like a sharp arrow from a string, half of its body was inserted into the black flame leopard's eye socket.

   Black Flame Panther's brain was severely injured, and his body swayed, and he fell to the ground stiffly, without any movement.

   "Good grab!"

   Zhou Jing was overjoyed, and hurried forward, pulled out the sword-tailed eagle from the eye socket of the black flame leopard, and shook off the blood sticking to the feathers.

After these days of cultivation, he has used the pet function to improve the sword-tailed eagle's skill level a lot, and he has also tempered the toughness of the eagle's beak. Although it is a low-level alien beast, its lethality is very considerable. It's not impossible for an alien beast that is stronger to die.

  The current sword-tailed eagle is like an arrow circling around him.

   Being robbed of the head, Roman didn't take it seriously. Seeing that the flames were burning around him, it was about to brew into a mountain fire.

   His fire lethality is enough to quickly kill most alien beasts, high-risk alien beasts, and for him, they are only instant kills.

   Zhou Jing returned to Roman's side, glanced at the bodyguard's body, and shook his head:

   "You start early, they will still be alive."

   "Since it's an escort, it's duty to protect us. To die for this is the right place to die. Otherwise, what do you have to do with the escort... You'd better be like me in the future, and don't expose your sorcerer's power to unrelated people because of weakness."

  Roman waved his hand, he is not a kind person, so he doesn't want to show his ability in front of the guards.

   Zhou Jing shrugged, noncommittal.

   In other words, if he has the value of use, and has the equivalent potion crafting ability, Roman will use sorcery to trade with him.

  Although Roman is not a good person, but he is taught witchcraft, and he has no position to accuse them.

   There were only two people left in the team, one eagle and one dog, so they had to pick up the luggage from the body of the guard and move on.

   There were several waves of beasts on the road, all of which were easily burned to death by Roman.

  Zhou Jing observed Roman's battle brightly and found that no matter what enemy he dealt with, he was able to handle it with ease and it was difficult to judge the limit of his strength.

  The sun gradually went down, and the two climbed the mountain range.
