Fantasy journey to the heavens

Late at night, two figures faced each other.

Jimu looked at Katim in front of him quietly, feeling suddenly frightened in his heart.

"you"

He opened his mouth, feeling an inexplicable fear in his heart at this moment.

In his sight, Katim in front of him seemed to be shrouded in a layer of mist, and his entire body was in a state of being invisible and intangible.

In this state, even Katim's aura became unique.

The most important thing is that at this moment, Jemu felt a familiar aura on Katim's body.

That encounter in the cemetery was a lingering shadow for him.

Until this moment, Jimu could not forget the feeling he felt when Katim pressed him to the ground and rubbed him in the cemetery.

Looking at Katim again at this moment, although the other person's face was different from the one in the cemetery because it was covered up, the temperament was particularly close to him at this moment.

Fear gradually arose in Jimu's heart.

As if feeling Jimu's mood, in front of him, Katim smiled: "What's wrong?"

"It's rare to see us at night. Why don't you, Mr. Jim, come in and be a guest?"

"No need."

Jimu took a deep breath and decisively rejected Katim's invitation.

joke.

The Katim in front of him made it clear that it was not that simple.

If he really went in, whether he could come out alive today is still a question.

Even if I gave ten courages, I would not dare to go in.

"I'm the one interrupting you today. There are assassins operating outside. I hope Mr. Katim can be more careful."

He forced a smile on his face, then turned around and left, as if he was afraid that Katim would ask to stay.

Standing there, Katim looked at Jamu's back as he turned away, and then a smile appeared on his face.

In the room, Luna was still hiding there.

Her strength is not weak. She did not suffer much damage in the previous chase, but she just looked a little embarrassed.

But at this moment, listening to the movement outside, she suddenly felt regretful.

Careless.

She shouldn't have gone to Mr. Khadim's house.

It doesn't matter what she does, but it would be bad if Mr. Katim gets involved because of this.

Luna took a deep breath, stood up silently, and was ready to leave.

She was going to lure Jamu away and try not to let him trace it to Katim.

There are not many good people like Mr. Katim left in this world, and she cannot let Mr. Katim get hurt.

Her gaze gradually became firmer.

But just as she was about to go out, she was interrupted by the sound coming from outside.

With a sizzling sound, the wooden door of the room was opened.

Katim came in from outside.

"Haven't you rested yet?"

Katim looked at Luna in front of him with a look of surprise on his face: "It's so late, what are you doing here?"

"It's nothing."

Luna's face froze: "I couldn't sleep at night, so I came here to take a look."

"By the way, what happened outside just now?"

She tried to change the subject: "It seems very lively."

"Oh, it seems that an assassin sneaked into Mr. Airy's manor and attempted to assassinate Mr. Airy."

Katim said casually: "Mr. Jamu was here just now."

"He came in?"

Luna suddenly became nervous again.

"Oh, that's not true."

Katim smiled: "He stood at the door for a while, didn't know why he didn't come in, and left again."

call.
Luna secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately.

The worst didn't happen.

"Okay, rest early."

Katim looked at Luna in front of him and said softly: "I have to get up early to work tomorrow."

"Yes, I understand."

Luna nodded.

Khadim then walked out.

Silent all night.

The night was spent in peace.

But secretly, it didn't seem very peaceful.

"Assassination?"

In the manor, Eli was sitting in the hall, listening to the reports of his subordinates with a calm expression.

He knew the specific details of tonight's operation and made the best judgment: "Looking like this, he should be the guy sent by the royal family to investigate."

"It's a bit troublesome."

After starting, Jimu sat there honestly, with the scene of the previous confrontation with Katim still remaining in his mind.

That extremely oppressive aura made him unforgettable at this moment.

"Mr. Jimu?"

Eli's voice rang in his ears.

He raised his head and met Airi's confused eyes: "What's wrong with you?"

"Sorry, I thought of something, so I was a little distracted."

He apologized solemnly and then asked: "What did you want to say?"

"Please bring someone to prepare it for me."

Airi said: "The sacrifices are almost ready. In a few days, I want to hold another sacrifice."

"May I ask if there is any problem there."

"No."

When he mentioned this, Jim suddenly became energetic.A smile appeared on his face and he said: "As long as you give the order, my guards and I are willing to charge on your behalf."

"That would be perfect."

A smile suddenly appeared on Eli's face.

"Are you going to attend the sacrifice in three days?"

In the room, Katim received the messenger sent by Airi and nodded to him: "I understand."

"Please tell Mr. Airy that I will arrive on time."

The attendant in front of him turned around and left with a respectful look on his face.

Katim stood there with a smile on his face.

"This time, I should be able to get in touch with the Tree of the Dead."

He muttered to himself.

After obtaining the Fruit of the Dead, he has never forgotten the legendary Tree of the Dead.

For Khadim, the tree of the dead has great appeal.

It's a pity that Airi has always been very indifferent to Katim's temptation and has no intention of bringing Katim to the Tree of the Dead.

But now, there is finally a chance.

Katim began to prepare silently.

He didn't forget what he was here for.

Whether from a personal perspective or to complete a mission, the Tree of the Dead is his goal.

Therefore, Katim is not ready to continue pretending.

Seeing the Tree of the Dead is the showdown.

Seeing as the recent cooperation has been quite pleasant, let's let Airi go when the time comes.

While preparing, this thought flashed through his mind.

While Katim was getting ready, Luna was getting ready too.

Regarding Airy's invitation, Katim did not deliberately hide anything and directly informed Luna "accidentally".

Luna's reaction to this was also quite surprising.

"It's finally time."

While preparing what she had on hand, this thought flashed through her mind.

She knew that her best chance was coming.

As long as you participate in Airy's sacrifice, some secrets about her will naturally be revealed.

Regarding the existence of the Tree of the Dead, it is actually not a secret among the top brass of Gray Rock City.

Even people at the bottom can know some general situations.

The real secret is the location and operating mechanism of the Tree of the Dead.

This is what Luna wants to figure out.

Because not only the dignitaries of Gray Rock City want to control things like the Tree of the Dead, but the royal family of Crow Kingdom also want it.

Her main purpose in coming to Gray Rock City was actually to take the Tree of the Dead away from Gray Rock City and hand it over to the royal family.

And now, the opportunity has finally come.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Outside the Gray Rock City, inside the carriage moving forward.

"I heard that there are many wizards in the Lane area, and some powerful wizards can even destroy a city by themselves."

Eli looked at Katim curiously.

On the way forward, because there was nothing to do, everyone started chatting.

Among them, Katim was the focus of the inquiry.

Because he comes from the Lane area, which is recognized as a prosperous place.

Compared with the Lane area, the Crow Kingdom can only be regarded as a rural place.

Everyone is very interested in what they see in the Lane area.

"There is indeed such a powerful wizard in the Ryan area."

Katim nodded and said, "But I've never seen it before."

"Such a wizard is extremely rare even in the Ryan area."

If you want to destroy a large city by yourself, a formal wizard cannot do it.

To do this, only a second-level wizard can do it.

The power of the second-level spell is much more powerful than the first-level spell, and the range is also larger.

Therefore, if the second-level wizard takes full action, he may be able to accomplish the feat of destroying a city by himself.

As for the second-level wizard, except himself, Katim had never seen him before.

Even he himself, when he was in the Blood Demon World, could not be considered a complete second-level wizard except for the blessing of the guardian magic weapon.

After all, he doesn't know any of the second-level spells that second-level wizards can cast.

Eli and Katim kept chatting and seemed to be in high spirits.

“When I was young, I also wanted to go on adventures and see many places.”

At a certain moment, he said with emotion: "It was only later, after going to some places, that I found that I couldn't do anything. Finally, I returned to Gray Rock City and became the city lord."

The corner of Katim's mouth twitched, but he still didn't say anything as he looked at Airi in front of him.

Ahead, a canyon has been reached.

After arriving here, Katim had already reacted.

Compared with other places in the outside world, the reaction of the undead in this canyon is too powerful.

The terrifying undead aura that was constantly boiling and almost enveloped this area made Katim, a formal wizard, frown.

But the strange thing is that except for this canyon, other places feel normal.

The inside and outside of the canyon are like two worlds, isolated from each other.

"Is it the effect of the magic circle, or..."

Standing there, Katim murmured to himself, already feeling something was wrong at this moment.

The effect in the canyon in front of you does not look like a natural formation, but rather like a man-made camouflage cover.

In the distance, Jimu and his soldiers were fighting in the canyon.

Because the aura of the undead was too strong, this place gave birth to many undead creatures.

A large area of ​​undead life is entrenched here, making it impossible for the team to move forward.

Jimu led the army and was cleaning up these undead creatures at the moment. (End of chapter)
