The wizard era begins with the alchemist wizard

Chapter 314: Cancer of Flesh and Blood

Richard led the way very quickly.

The Mimic evolved a terrifying mimicry ability during the war with the Magic Dwarves. However, this mimicry ability can deceive the naked eye, but it cannot deceive Richard's mental detection.

Under the power of the mind, no matter how wonderful the disguise of the mimic is, it cannot escape Richard's detection.

Richard also successfully harvested a lot of specimens.

Spiraling down from the mine in the cave area, Richard soon felt that he was already below the land surface.

The mine tunnel is still extending downwards, with no end in sight.

"Have you dug out this mountain?" Richard couldn't help asking as he looked at the endless mine tunnels.

"No sir, we only mined the upper part of the vein." Pluto replied honestly.

After entering the underground area, Richard clearly felt a faint sweet smell in the air around him.

This smell was not poisonous, but it made Richard feel very uncomfortable.

It seemed that the source of this smell made him naturally disgusted.

It was as if every cell in his body was rejecting this smell, or rather, rejecting the owner of this smell.

This aroused Richard's curiosity even more.

It is rare to find something that can make the body's cells instinctively disgusted.

Even with the blue flame in Richard's hand that had a special attack on the physical body, Richard's body did not show any feeling of disgust.

What on earth is this evil demon that was sealed by the Wizard of Truth?
As Richard went down the mine tunnel, he encountered fewer and fewer mimics, and was replaced by various ferocious deformed creatures.

Due to population problems, the dwarves' army, which used to be stationed at the bottom of the mountains, is now mostly on the ground. Only a very small number of elites are stationed in ancient bunkers and fortresses to monitor the movements of the deformed ones.

The mortality rate of this group of elite dwarves is extremely high, but the magic dwarves never resist this responsibility.

On the contrary, they regarded this mission as an honor.

They believed that their sacrifice was not in vain.

After their death, they will go under the command of the King of the Magic Dwarves and forever protect the Magic Dwarves.

……

boom!
The jet of incandescent flame instantly enveloped the deformed creature that was blocking the way.

This deformer seemed to be a mutated version of some kind of worm. With the infusion of demonic power, the worm grew to an extremely large size, almost filling the entire mine tunnel.

At its front end, the huge ring-shaped mouthparts were filled with fangs. Thick green digestive fluid dripped between the teeth and fell to the ground with a "sizzling" sound.

In the past, the dwarves would have had to retreat or choose a warrior to penetrate the worm's mouth and destroy its internal organs.

And this often means sacrifice.

But now, the dwarf only needs to pull the trigger, and the incandescent flame will burn the worm to charcoal.

Roar!
The distorted worm let out a low roar and tried to charge forward under the flames, but a large metal shield instantly blocked its path.

Four dwarves stood shoulder to shoulder, holding up their metal shields and wrestling with the giant deformed worm.

Moreover, the dwarves won.

The sturdy short legs of the dwarves burst out with amazing strength, and their iron shoes even left footprints on the hard rock ground during the wrestling.

With their concerted efforts, the deformed worm was even slowly retreating.

Soon, the incandescent flames will spread throughout the worm's body.

The deformed worm turned into black charcoal in a flash of incandescence.

Richard walked to the front of the team and put away the metal shield.

"keep going."

"Yes!"

The deeper you go into the mine, the more types of Deformers there are.

From the deformed worms that can fill the entire passage, to the deformed carnivorous ants that are only the size of a fist but are numerous, to the millipedes that are several meters long and have countless sharp branches.

Richard encountered no less than twenty kinds of deformed monsters along the way.

But in Pluto's words, it is still a weakened and deformed monster.

In the past, dwarven mutants would even rush out of the mines and come to the surface to infect monsters and use them as soldiers.

The dwarves had spent many years, almost destroying their own race, before they had weakened these Aberrations to their current state.

These deformed ones nowadays are generally underground bugs and magic dwarf warriors who go deep underground.

However, judging from the current strength of the magic dwarves, these deformed ones will break through sooner or later.

The population of the magic dwarves can no longer support them to continue to eliminate these deformed ones.

That is why the high priest paid a huge price to use divination to determine the future of the magic dwarves.

After walking along the mine tunnel for another hour, Richard finally saw the end of the mine tunnel.

Walking out of the mine, what appeared before Richard was an extremely huge abyss.

This abyss is conservatively estimated to be hundreds of kilometers long.

Richard looked over there, but could not see the end of the abyss.

"Is this the bottom of the mountains you mentioned?"

"Yes, sir. The bottom of this abyss is where the evil demon is sealed."

Richard stood above the abyss, and the sweet smell became stronger.

The cold wind from the abyss constantly blew this smell out from the bottom of the abyss.

Richard frowned, and the feeling of disgust in his heart became stronger and stronger.

It seems that beneath this abyss, there is something lurking that is even more disgusting than a dung spirit.

"Wait a moment, wait until everyone is here before going down."

Richard came to a platform at the edge of the abyss, took off the synthetic beast bag around his waist, and released the witch hunting team inside.

The witch hunting team woke up in a daze, and opened their eyes instantly after smelling the sweet smell in the abyss.

"What a disgusting smell?" Mishan said with a frown. "It seems I'm not the only one who hates this smell." Richard laughed.

The witch hunting team looked at Richard, and Makar asked, "Sir, are we going to fight the owner of this smell next?"

Richard nodded: "Yes."

After releasing the witch hunting team, Richard did not delay and immediately took out the armor parts.

Several fire lizards helped each other and quickly put on their armor.

After putting on the equipment and adjusting various parameters, Richard immediately noticed that the four fire lizards had entered the closed mode.

Salamanders would rather not absorb energy from the outside world than smell the smell.

After waiting for another hour, the team led by the high priest arrived at the bottom of the mountains first.

After seeing Richard had arrived, he smiled and said, "Master, you are so fast."

Another half an hour later, the second and third teams also arrived at the bottom of the mountains.

The fourth team arrived at the bottom of the mountains ten minutes after the third team, but the fifth team was still late.

"Did something go wrong?" The high priest frowned slightly.

Thumb thump thump thump...

The sound of iron shoe footsteps came from the mine tunnel.

The last team finally arrived.

But they looked a little disheveled, and many of the magic dwarves were injured.

"What's going on?" asked the high priest.

The leading golden-armored dwarf replied: "The brothers in a fortress were all corrupted. We delayed for a while and purified them."

A trace of grief flashed across the high priest's face. After a moment of silence, he spoke:

"May they rest in peace. Pack up, this battle will be the last."

Richard came to the last team and repaired their armor. The high priest took out some black ointment and applied it to the wounds of these magic dwarves.

In this ointment, Richard smelled the scent of a plant called Death Grass, which can promote wound healing quickly, but at the cost of extreme nerve stimulation.

When using this drug, the user will feel an indescribable pain, and many people will even go into shock or even die from the pain.

But these magic dwarves did not react after applying the ointment.

Their faces were expressionless, as solid as a rock, unwavering.

Ten minutes later, the team finished their rest.

Looking at the bottomless abyss, everyone jumped down directly without any auxiliary props such as ropes.

The lowest level among them is a level two creature, and they can do things like controlling energy and floating in the air.

In the abyss, there were gusts of cold wind.

The further down you go, the higher the concentration of fire element in the air, and the stronger the sweet scent becomes.

Richard frowned and looked at the magic dwarves in the team, and found that they all had no expression on their faces.

"Can't you smell this?"

"Sir, we are used to it."

After a long time, everyone finally fell to the bottom of the abyss.

As soon as he landed, Richard found that there was something wrong with the surrounding environment.

There is a winding lava river at the bottom of the abyss. Taking advantage of the light from the lava, Richard discovered that the surrounding stones were all covered with things like nerves and blood vessels.

And there is a layer of moss-like flesh and blood carpet attached to them.

The characteristics of these flesh and blood creatures actually appeared on inorganic objects such as stone.

The power of this evil demon is so terrifying.

"Have you seen these things before?"

Richard broke off a piece of stone from the ground, and there was even a trickle of blood flowing out from the broken edge of the stone.

"We have seen it, but we couldn't deal with it in the past," the high priest replied, "but now we have a way."

After saying that, the high priest waved his hand, and the dwarves all pulled the triggers of their flamethrowers.

The next moment, the incandescent flames instantly purified the surrounding flesh and blood fungus carpet, as well as the flesh and blood in the stones.

The incandescent flames continued to spread along the fungal blanket, along the blood vessels and nerves between the stones.

Soon half of the abyss was illuminated with incredible brightness.

It was only then that the dwarves noticed that this erosion of flesh and blood had already transformed almost the entire bottom of the abyss over thousands of years.

Although the magic dwarves don't know the purpose of this erosion, there is no doubt that it is definitely not a good thing for them.

And this seems to confirm the divination.

Richard will slay the evil spirit with fire.

"Let's go." Richard said calmly.

He could feel that a huge will was awakening.

There is a huge will in these flesh-and-blood environments.

Advancing along the lava river, the magic dwarves continued to use flamethrowers to purify the surrounding environment. Wherever the flames spread, flesh and blood disappeared, leaving only rocks.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Richard finally saw the destination of their trip.

A dwarf was sleeping on a throne made of flesh and blood, surrounded by countless deformed monsters.

Behind the throne, Richard saw a huge tumor sealed by a pentagram array.

"What kind of evil demon is this? It's just a failed experiment." Richard smiled at the high priest.

The first time Richard saw the tumor, he recognized what it was.

"This thing is called Flesh Cancer. It is the last work of a six-ringed great wizard from the alchemy school who specializes in the study of flesh and blood."
