Weird Survival: I can devour thousands of talents

Chapter 266 266:

For some time after the Demon was successfully sealed, the Magic Kingdom was immersed in long-lost peace.

People live and work in peace and contentment, and the streets and alleys are filled with laughter.

The magicians performed their duties in an orderly manner every day, safeguarding the peace and prosperity of the kingdom. However, this peace did not last long.

On a sunny morning, the team of magicians responsible for regularly checking the magic circle of the sealed area stepped into the mysterious area as usual.

They were dressed in uniform magic robes, looked solemn, and shouldered the heavy responsibility of guarding the seal.

As they approached the magic circle, Captain Eric's brows suddenly frowned, and a strange feeling came over him.

He subconsciously quickened his pace, came to the front of the magic circle and observed it carefully.

The magic circle that was originally stable now had chaotic energy fluctuations. The runes that once flashed brightly and regularly now flickered, as if they would go out at any time.

Eric reached out and touched the edge of the magic circle. An unstable magical power instantly spread throughout his body, and he couldn't help but shudder.

"Everyone, come here quickly, there's something seriously wrong with the magic circle!"

Eric called out to his teammates.

The other magicians quickly gathered around and were shocked when they saw the scene before them.

They all used their own magical perceptions to try to find the cause of the abnormality in the magic circle.

However, there was a strange interfering force surrounding the magic circle, which greatly hindered their perception magic and made it difficult to detect in depth.

In desperation, Eric immediately decided to report the matter to the Magic Kingdom headquarters.

The news quickly reached Ling Xiao and others.

At that time, Ling Xiao was studying ancient magic books in the library of the Magic Guild, hoping to unearth more secrets about magic in order to enhance his own and his team's strength.

Upon hearing the news that something was wrong with the magic circle, he stood up suddenly, a trace of worry flashing in his eyes.

"Not good, we must go to the sealed place immediately."

He said to Alice, David and Tom who were practicing nearby.

Upon hearing this, everyone packed up their equipment without hesitation and followed Ling Xiao towards the sealed place.

When they stepped into the sealed land, they found that everything here was very different from before.

The magical creature, which was originally docile and cute, now became manic and restless.

A group of unicorns that were originally grazing leisurely on the grass now had red eyes and messy manes. They made angry neighs from time to time and pawed the ground frantically with their hooves.

Several elves, which were originally flying happily among the flowers, were now fleeing in fear, making sharp cries.

In the distance, a giant tree man had also lost his former composure. Its branches were waving wildly, knocking down the surrounding trees.

Ling Xiao and others continued to go deeper and found that some small magic circles were inexplicably ineffective.

These small magic circles were originally set up to maintain the ecological balance of the sealed land and assist the operation of large magic circles, but now they seem to have been drained of their magic power and have become dim.

The magic patterns on the ground also showed signs of breaking and twisting, as if they had been hit by some powerful force.

The air was filled with a pungent smell, a mixture of decay and evil, which made people want to vomit.

Ling Xiao frowned, he knew very well that these abnormal phenomena were not accidental and there must be a major crisis hidden behind them.

"Everyone, please be alert. Something is very wrong here. Let's split up and carefully investigate the source of these phenomena."

Ling Xiao said calmly. Everyone nodded, casting their own spells and exploring in different directions.

Alice cast wind magic to make her body light and fly quickly into the sky.

She closed her eyes, concentrated, and felt the flow of magical elements in the air.

The wind whistled past her, bringing all sorts of information. Suddenly, she sensed a faint and strange magical fluctuation coming from the northwest of the sealed land.

"Ling Xiao, I found some clues. There is a strange magical fluctuation in the northwest direction."

Alice informed Ling Xiao through magic communication.

After receiving the news, Ling Xiao immediately rushed towards the northwest.

David and Tom followed closely behind.

Along the way, they saw more strange sights. The stream that was once crystal clear had now become turbid, with black slime floating on the surface and emitting a disgusting odor.

The plants along the stream also became withered and twisted, losing their vitality.

When they arrived at the area Alice pointed out, they found that the ground here was covered with some strange symbols.

These symbols emitted a faint black light, completely different from the magic circle runes that sealed the demon god, and exuded an evil aura.

Ling Xiao squatted down and carefully observed the symbols, trying to find clues to crack the code.

He used the magical knowledge he had learned and the experience he had accumulated during the exploration process to interpret these symbols.

After some effort, he found that these symbols seemed to be an ancient dark magic mark, related to a mysterious organization. At this moment, a low roar suddenly came from the surroundings.

Everyone immediately became alert and gripped their weapons tightly.

I saw several huge monsters slowly walking out of the darkness. They were covered with black scales, their eyes flashed with blood-red light, green venom flowed from their mouths, and they emitted a strong fishy smell.

These monsters were obviously controlled by some evil force and launched a fierce attack on Ling Xiao and others.

Ling Xiao quickly cast fire magic, and a blazing wall of fire instantly rose in front of everyone, blocking the attack of the monster.

Alice waved her hands, and wind magic formed wind blades that flew towards the monsters. The wind blades cut into the monsters' scales, splashing sparks, but did not cause any fatal damage to them.

David controlled the earth magic power, raised sharp stone pillars from the ground, and stabbed the monster.

The stone pillar hit the monster, and the monster let out a cry of pain, but still continued to attack tenaciously.

Tom cast all his healing magic in the back to provide shields for his teammates and prevent them from being hurt by the monster's venom and attacks.

During the fierce battle, Ling Xiao discovered that although these monsters were powerful, their movements were a bit slow and their attack methods were single.

He quickly adjusted tactics and worked closely with his teammates.

He cast lightning magic, and thick lightning bolts fell from the sky, hitting the monster and paralyzing its body.

Alice took the opportunity to use wind magic to blow the monster off balance, while David controlled the stone pillars to nail the monster firmly to the ground.

After a hard battle, they finally succeeded in defeating these monsters.

After defeating the monsters, Ling Xiao and his companions continued their investigation and discovered that the place where these monsters appeared was the source of the strange magical fluctuations.

Behind a nearby boulder, there is a small magic teleportation array hidden.

The teleportation array was also engraved with those strange dark magic symbols, and was now emitting a faint light, as if it had just been used.

Ling Xiao guessed that the mysterious organization was likely to enter the sealed area through this teleportation array and carry out sabotage activities.

In order to further understand the purpose and actions of the mysterious organization, Ling Xiao decided to track the energy fluctuations of the magic teleportation array.

He used the power of the mysterious beads to enhance his perception of magic fluctuations and led his teammates in the direction of the energy fluctuations.

Along the way, they were cautious and always alert to the movements around them.

As they went deeper, they found that the surrounding environment became more and more gloomy and terrifying, and the evil smell in the air became stronger and stronger.

What awaits them ahead will be more unknown dangers and challenges.

Ling Xiao and the others followed the faint energy fluctuations emitted by the magic teleportation array and struggled forward in the eerie and terrifying sealed place.

The surrounding trees were twisted and deformed, faces struggling in pain seemed to appear on the bark, and faint groans were emitted.

The moss on the ground flickered with a strange glow, and with every step I took, I could feel the sticky touch under my feet.

The evil aura in the air grew stronger, almost suffocating. Ling Xiao held his wand, the light from its tip flickering in the darkness, striving to penetrate the thick haze.

Alice followed closely behind, wind magic flowing around her body, always alert to possible dangers around her, her hair flying wildly in the wind, her eyes full of determination.

David lowered his hands slightly to establish a close connection with the earth, and used earth magic to sense the movements underground. His muscles were tense, like a cheetah ready to pounce.

Tom was at the end of the team, with the soft light of healing magic faintly visible in his palm. He always paid attention to the condition of his teammates. Once someone was injured, he could provide treatment in the first time.

As they went deeper, they found an abandoned magic tower in front of them.

The magic tower was tilted, its body was covered with cracks, and it was surrounded by circles of black mist.

Ling Xiao and the others exchanged glances and slowly approached the magic tower. As they entered the tower's area, a powerful wave of magic washed over them, causing everyone to stop in their tracks.

Ling Xiao uses the power of the mysterious beads to try to penetrate the magical fluctuations and explore the mystery contained therein.

After some effort, he discovered that this magical fluctuation was mixed with the same aura as the dark magic symbols he had seen before, which made him more convinced that the mysterious organization had a close connection with this magic tower.

They walked into the magic tower carefully.

The tower was filled with a foul smell, and tattered portraits hung on the walls. The faces of the people in the portraits were distorted, and their eyes revealed madness and evil.

In the center of the hall of the magic tower, there is a huge stone table, which is piled with ancient books and scrolls.

Ling Xiao walked forward, picked up a book and opened it, and found that it contained some forbidden knowledge about dark magic.

The book mentions a forgotten ancient family that was once obsessed with pursuing powerful dark magic power and attempted to rule the entire magical world.

Their actions aroused the vigilance of the Magic Kingdom, and they were eventually expelled by the guardians of the Magic Kingdom.

As the investigation deepened, Ling Xiao and others gradually uncovered the mystery of this ancient family.

This family was called the "Shadow Family." Even after being expelled, they did not give up their desire for power and strength.

They lived in seclusion in the dark corners of the continent, secretly conducting various dark magic experiments, trying to find a way to allow them to rise again.

After countless attempts and failures, they finally discovered the secret of the Demon God's seal.

They believed that as long as they could lift the seal of the demon and use the demon's power, they could realize their ambition of ruling the world.

In order to implement this crazy plan, the Shadow Family established a mysterious organization.

They searched everywhere for people with dark magic talents and continued to expand their power.

They also spent a lot of time and energy studying ancient magic texts, looking for ways to weaken the seal of the demon.

Their hard work paid off, and they finally found an ancient magic ritual. It is said that through specific magic circles and dark magic spells, they can gradually weaken the power of the demon's seal and allow the demon to awaken again.

Ling Xiao and others continued to look through books and scrolls, discovering more details about the conspiracy of the mysterious organization.

They learned that a mysterious organization had set up magic circles in many hidden corners of the sealed land. These magic circles echoed with each other, forming a huge dark magic network.

They planned to activate these magic circles at the same time at a specific time and start the magic ritual.

Once the ritual succeeds, the seal of the Demon God will be completely broken, and the entire magical world will be plunged into endless darkness. Ling Xiao's brows were furrowed, as he was fully aware of the critical situation.

"We have to stop them quickly, time is running out."

His voice was low and firm.

Alice clenched her fists, her eyes flashing with anger. "These despicable guys, for their own ambitions, are willing to plunge the entire world into disaster."

David pounded the stone table hard and said, "We must not let their conspiracy succeed!"

Tom nodded silently, and the healing magic in his hand glowed brighter and brighter, as if gathering strength for the upcoming battle.

At this moment, a noisy sound suddenly came from outside the magic tower.

Ling Xiao and others quickly picked up their weapons and looked towards the door vigilantly.

I saw a group of people in black robes walking out of the darkness. They wore black masks on their faces, revealing only a pair of cold eyes.

These people are members of the mysterious organization.

The leader took a step forward and said coldly, "How dare you, you nosy fellows, trespass into our territory? Today, you will not leave alive."

Ling Xiao went forward fearlessly and shouted, "We already know about your conspiracy. Today is your end."

After saying that, he took the lead in casting fire magic, and a blazing pillar of fire shot towards the members of the mysterious organization.

Alice, David and Tom also cast their own magic and joined the battle.

For a moment, magical lights flashed and the shouts of killing were deafening.

Not to be outdone, the members of the mysterious organization quickly cast dark magic to fight back.

Black mist spread out, trying to swallow Ling Xiao and others.

Sharp blades formed by dark magic danced in the air, attacking everyone.

Ling Xiao and others cleverly dodged the attacks while continuously launching counterattacks.
