Journey to the Wizarding World

Chapter 316 Twisted Dryad
"So. You chose to merge with this twisted tree!?"

Enzo gasped. After hearing the words of the Twisted Dryad, thoughts flashed through his mind. He suddenly had a bold inference about the scene ahead and what happened in the Twisted Forest.

Gramm is an aging guardian wizard.

His life was about to come to an end, but he could not be promoted to a second-level wizard. In order to seek an opportunity, he followed the expeditionary force to [Aiqila World], and by chance, he found a distorted giant twisted tree.

Feeling the huge vitality of the giant twisted tree, a bold idea crazily grew in Graham's heart.

Using the knowledge in his mind, he fused himself with the Twisted Tree, and devoured everyone in the pioneering team, thus forming a unique life form.

Twisted Dryad!

The Twisted Tree, which originally had no thinking, obtained the brains of the Gram wizard and thirty rune knights at the same time, and gained wisdom in this way.

"When I was a human wizard, I tried various methods to advance to the second-order life form."

"But every attempt ended in failure. I had given up and decided to face death calmly, but when Dean Frosley ordered the expedition, I planned to try my best one last time!"

"The new world may represent danger and unknown, but it also means opportunity!"

"Perhaps it was the arrangement of fate that let me find this giant twisted tree. Using the wisdom of the wizard, I fused everyone's brains with the twisted tree, and finally successfully promoted to a second-order life form!"

Gram, the Twisted Dryad, spoke slowly, with a trace of vicissitudes in his calm tone.

"Now. Should I call you the wizard Gram, or the twisted dryad Gram?" Enzo suppressed the throbbing in his heart, and said with a frown, "If you are promoted to a second-level life form in this way, have you already given up on the future? Yet?"

Fusing itself with the giant twisted tree may have given Gram a long life.

But abandoning his human body also made him cut off his journey as a wizard. As a twisted dryad, it is almost impossible for him to evolve towards a higher level of life in the future.

"Compared with the future, I pay more attention to the present!"

The Twisted Tree Demon spoke slowly, and said, "If you don't seize this opportunity, perhaps in another ten years, I will completely fall, and even my soul will return to the origin of the wizarding world, and become a part of the world's rules from then on."

"And now, even though I've changed form, I'm still me!"

"What's more, even becoming a twisted tree demon does not mean losing the future. When I fused my brain with a giant twisted tree and became a special life form, the roots took root in this land and gained a lot of things you don't understand. information."

"[Aiqila World] is far from being as simple as you imagined."

Distorting the surface of the Dryad's trunk, a strange expression appeared on Gram's face. After acquiring a new life form, he became a native creature of [Ekira World] in a special way, so he learned more about this world. secret.

Enzo's eyes flashed, and his thoughts changed.

"Okay, let's not talk about this!" Immediately afterwards, the huge body of the twisted tree demon swayed, and said slowly, "Come here, Enzo! Merge with me, and you will also become a second-order life form."

Whoa!
The green vines came towards this side, and Enzo and the Rune Knights were shocked. After a brief exchange, the situation finally turned to a battle.

"Destroy the fireball!" On the spot, Enzo paused with his wand.

Black flames bloomed in mid-air, forming a dark extinguishing fireball. After Enzo was promoted to the first-level wizard, the energy of the spells he mastered had a substantial increase in energy. The energy intensity of the uncharged fireball had already exceeded 20 Spend.

boom!
The extinguishing fireball whizzed away, twisting the hanging vines around the tree demon, and immediately weaving them into a tree net, blocking the witchcraft attack, and at the same time, more vines sprang out like poisonous snakes.

A rune knight was caught off guard, and his legs were entangled in vines.

"Ah! Help." In the exclamation, the rune knight was dragged under the tree by the vines, and then several thick vines curled and stretched over.

"Jack!!" Cavalier Carter drew out his cross sword and was about to rush forward, but was stopped by Enzo.

The soft and sharp vine wrapped around Jack's body, and then the barbs on it pierced his body, sucking blood while tearing his skull and peeling off the brain inside.

The picture in front of me is creepy!
After the Twisted Dryad sucked all the blood from Jack's body, the shriveled body was thrown directly to a bionic crocodile, and the white brain that was taken out of Jack's skull was wrapped in vines and sent to the top of the Twisted Dryad.

Immediately afterwards, tiny silky tentacles pierced Jack's brain, hanging in the canopy like a lantern.

"Hello, Boss Carter!" There was a change on the surface of the twisted dryad's trunk, Jack's face replaced Gram, and he greeted Knight Carter with a smile.

"How is this possible!?" Knight Carter's face was pale, and a chill rose up his spine.

After the twisted dryad devoured Jack, he fused everything about him with himself, not only possessing Jack's brain that originally belonged to him, but even acquiring all of Jack's memories.

Enzo narrowed his eyes, with a serious expression on his face.

He finally understood Gram's intentions. The Twisted Dryad had previously fused the brains of a wizard and thirty rune knights, and now it had become a special life form.

The Twisted Dryad can obtain more wisdom and memory by plundering the brain.

It is this ability that makes the Twisted Dryad desire brains to evolve towards a higher level of life. Gram was a human wizard before, and when he knew that a pioneering team disappeared, the tower would send out a new pioneering team.

So, he decided to wait quietly in the Twisted Forest to grab more brains.

Ahead, the slender tree vines attacked quickly. The rune knights had learned their previous lessons and dared not be careless. They swung their cross swords to cut off the tree vines, but to the Twisted Dryad, it seemed painless. itch.

"Come here! Merge with me, and you will become a more advanced life form!"

A strange smile appeared on the twisted dryad's face, and the bionic crocodile monsters around him stood on two feet in a humanoid form, vomited green mucus from the stomach, and picked up cross swords with claw-like forelimbs.

At the same time, behind the Twisted Dryad, a bionic crocodile in a black robe slowly appeared.

In its claws, it held a metal wand.

"You even fed your own body to the bionic crocodile!?" Enzo's face was filled with surprise.

The bionic crocodile is a life form conceived by the twisted dryad. It has the ability to devour other life cells and plunder the genetic attributes. Those bionic crocodiles holding the cross sword with their forelimb claws are all because they ate the corpse of the rune knight.

And the bionic crocodile in black robe in front of him, since he was holding a metal wand, obviously ate Gram's body.

"Bionic crocodile? Sounds like a good name!"

The distorted dryad had a weird expression, and slowly said: "The physical body is just a shell that carries the soul. Now that I have transformed into another life form, the shell has no meaning. I named this bionic crocodile monster 'Gram', which has almost all the powers of my human wizard status."

While speaking, Gram, the bionic crocodile, raised his metal wand.

In mid-air, a cloud of silvery liquid slowly condensed, as if it was some kind of liquid metal, changing into a sharp cone in a flowing form, and then piercing the air and shooting forward.

Enzo's eyes were calm, and his mind moved.

On the ground, shadows emerged as shields!

call out!call out!call out!
However, the shadow shield failed to block the metal cone. With the ear-piercing sound of piercing through the air, it directly penetrated the shadow shield, stabbing at Enzo at an unabated speed.

"Shadow Whip!"

Enzo stepped back three steps, and the reflection in front of him waved like a long whip, knocking away a few metal spikes, but at the next moment, those metal spikes floated up again, piercing like whistle arrows.

"Shadow Stealth!"

Seeing several metal spikes attacking again, the Shadow Whip flicked violently, and while blocking one of the spikes, Enzo also turned into a cloud of shadows and disappeared on the spot.

"Does it focus on shadow magic?"

The Twisted Dryad spoke slowly, and said approvingly, "It's really a good talent. If I can get your brain, maybe I can also evolve abilities related to shadows."

The next moment, Enzo's figure appeared in vain.

It was less than one meter away from the bionic crocodile monster Gram, and the wand of the soul in Enzo's hand flickered with dim light, and the dark fireball continued to condense, and then blasted out.

Bang!
In the hands of the bionic crocodile Gramm, the metal wand twisted for a while, like flowing liquid metal, it turned into a huge metal shield, blocking the attack of the dark fireball.

"Steel Armor."

Immediately afterwards, the bionic crocodile's throat trembled, and the huge shield in front of him turned into liquid metal again, rushing towards it, wrapping the whole body of the bionic crocodile, forming a steel armor.

hum!
Two sharp steel thorns extended from the claws of the bionic crocodile.

With its strong lower limbs, the bionic crocodile lunged forward with a low growl. The sharp steel thorns were extremely sharp, as if they could easily pierce through all obstacles, even rock king kong.

call out!
Amid the sound of piercing through the air, the bionic crocodile had already rushed up, and the steel thorns rushed forward, piercing Enzo's body at a terrifying speed, but then his body turned into a shadow and dispersed like black mist.

Body of shadows!

The core ability of Ghost Shadow is almost immune to any physical damage. Although Enzo has mastered the twelve shadow witchcraft, he has never used it in actual combat. It was his first attempt just now.

"Next, let's make a quick decision!"

In the same place, Enzo's figure emerged, his eyes gradually turned cold. In the previous round of battle, he did not use all his strength, but gradually became familiar with his innate witchcraft in the process of confronting the bionic crocodile.

"Are you serious? It's funny!"

On the opposite side, the Twisted Tree Demon smiled strangely, and said slowly, "I also want to see what your real strength is. Those who can win the coordinates for the academy in the bloody battle will surely not let me down?"

brush!
The next moment, Enzo disappeared in place.

After the shadow stealth was activated, he appeared like a shadow quickly behind the bionic crocodile Gram. The opponent's reaction speed was also not slow, and sharp steel cones floated out instantly and pierced out.

Jingle!

On the ground, the shadow turned into a long whip, and several steel cones flew away, and then sharpened in vain, shooting forward like a shadow thorn, instantly piercing through the newly formed huge metal shield.

Shadow stab!

With the sound of the sharp weapon piercing through the flesh, a cloud of blood bloomed from the chest of the bionic crocodile, and its throat trembled violently, making a sound like the roar of a wild animal.

"Shadow Cage!" Enzo snapped the wand in his hand.

A shadow-like dark vortex emerged on the ground, and then turned into a shadow cage, trapping the bionic crocodile in it, and black barbs extended from the inside, touching the bionic crocodile's whole body.

The battle ended in a moment, and even though the abilities of Wizard Gram were plundered, the bionic crocodile still lost to Enzo.

"Sure enough, it ended like this, and there was no accident." Regarding the scene in front of him, the twisted dryad's weird face was full of calm, as if everything was expected.

The bionic crocodile eats Gramm's body, thus gaining the ability of wizard spells.

But because there is no crystallization of magical power in its body, every time it uses a spell, it consumes the thin magic power in the blood. Therefore, not only is its power not as good as that of a real wizard, but the duration of the fighting state is also far inferior to that of a real wizard.

Therefore, the bionic crocodile monster Gram's combat power is at most equivalent to that of a third-level apprentice elite.

As long as Enzo is serious, he can easily solve it, and the Twisted Dryad has already expected this, so after the bionic crocodile was trapped by the shadow cage, it waved its vine and yanked towards the shadow cage.

Snapped!
Under the tremendous force, the shadow cage shattered, and the vines entangled the bionic crocodile and wrapped it all up. After being dragged back to the tree, a hole was opened in the trunk, and the bionic crocodile was swallowed up.

"Take a good rest, my child." The Twisted Dryad said softly.

This seems to be another ability of the Twisted Dryad. After the bionic crocodile it bred is injured, it can recover by returning to the mother's dormancy. As long as it is not completely dead, it can be restored to its original state.

"Next, it's our turn"

A strange smile appeared on the Twisted Dryad's face again. The next moment, the ground seemed to tremble slightly, and every plant in the Twisted Forest began to move, moving closer to the central area.

In an instant, the sky was completely plunged into darkness, and the Twisted Forest seemed to be a giant beast that chose to eat people.

"This is a little troublesome!" Enzo stared, and his face became a little ugly. It turned out that the Twisted Dryad also has the ability to control other plants in the jungle. It blocked all the surrounding roads and trapped the pioneering team here.

"In this case, there is only one way out!"

There was a hint of ferocity in Enzo's eyes, and the magic power surged all over his body. The rune knights beside him also clenched the cross swords in their hands, ready to fight to the death.
