I am a mage, with an infinite mana bar!

Chapter 205 The Tower in the Jungle

"madman."

Farin cursed inwardly, but at the same time he was somewhat impressed by Leander's courage.

Even knowing that the emerald dragon was already dead and its power had diminished considerably, he still couldn't bring himself to confront a dragon with his advanced-level body.

Even though his strength had surpassed that of ordinary people, he still felt that dragons were like mythical creatures, worthy of reverence, especially as a member of the Green Tower and a monster researcher.

Lynn, who was listening in, was pleasantly surprised. He naturally hoped that these people could participate in the battle against the Emerald Dragon, which would greatly increase his chances of hunting it.

From the very beginning, he came with the idea of ​​eradicating the corrupt cult completely.

This decision was made after careful consideration, based on what he had seen and heard about the corrupt cult and Adonis.

Adonis's abilities are so strange and troublesome that he must eliminate them completely to prevent future problems.

"If Farin'o insists on not fighting that dragon, I will find an opportunity to communicate with him and borrow the Heart of Nature. The relic of the Green Tower is very effective against corrupted creatures and will definitely play a great role in the battle."

During their rest period, Farin and his companions discussed their battle plan, with Hector, Leander, and the veteran warrior in charge of the raid, while the ranger would keep watch from the shadows.

Hector gave the ranger a communication magic item, instructing him to notify them immediately if he discovered anything unusual, no matter how small.

As for Farin, he and the illusionist used magic to conceal themselves and wait for an opportunity to strike.

He possesses the crucial artifact, the Sacred Heart of Nature, and his main task is to guard against the sudden appearance of Becky or other anomalies, and then use the Sacred Heart of Nature to suppress them.

The operation began, and this time Leander took out five vials of potions from the ring on his right hand and drank them one by one.

His body underwent another strange change, his body suddenly swelled up, growing several feet taller, his back bulged high, his clothes tore apart, revealing bulging muscles underneath, and then thick, dark hair grew out.

"roar--"

With a deep, resonant roar, Leander transformed into a gigantic demonic bear, three meters tall!

The others all showed expressions of shock, and even Lynn secretly rolled his eyes.

This is alchemy. With the right combination of main materials, one can actually abandon the human form and transform into a demon!

Farin, a druid, saw this and, though surprised, feigned indifference, clicking his tongue and saying, "You've made a bit too much of a fuss."

But he could actually see that Leander's transformation was not just an empty shell; he truly possessed extremely powerful strength.

There are many druids who can transform into beasts, but Farin'o is not one of them. His training is more focused on natural elements, making him more like an elemental mage.

Leander's hairy, half-human, half-bear face wore a strange smile. Without making any distinctions, he bent down slightly, picked up a large rock from the ground, and spun his massive body under everyone's gaze. The muscles beneath his thick skin burst forth with tremendous power, even the veteran warriors present were ashamed of their own strength.

boom!

The stone shot out like a cannonball, crashing directly into the jungle dozens of meters away.

"Awooo—" For a moment, the mournful howls of wild beasts could be heard incessantly.

There lurked a pack of demon wolves, but they were much larger, with jet-black fur, and were very similar to the Shadow Wolves that Charlotte had summoned.

They are also much stronger than the one-star demon wolves in the outer area, and are proper two-star demons.

Other experienced professionals also noticed these beasts to some extent, but they didn't really take them seriously. After all, two-star monsters were only at the entry level and posed no threat to them.

Farino frowned, his disgust barely concealed.

As a member of the Green Tower, he couldn't stand such acts of wantonly harming lives.

Leander, having landed a successful blow, casually stretched his limbs, as if he had just finished warming up.

He gave Farino a defiant look, as if to blatantly declare that his actions just now were intentional.

"you----"

"Enough!" Hector interrupted the impending dispute in a deep voice. He was the highest-ranking person in the team and naturally the captain who coordinated the entire team.

"Hurry up, we're not as familiar with this place as those cultists. We have to finish the mission before dark, or things will get complicated."

After saying that, he waved his staff and cast two auxiliary spells, "Great Stride" and "Invisible and Shadowless," on the entire team.

Everyone present was a seasoned veteran, so they naturally understood his reasoning and said no more. They proceeded with their original plan.

Lynn, who was watching the show from the sidelines, also breathed a slight sigh of relief. Although he was eager to see who was stronger, Teacher Farin or Leander, who had transformed into a demonic bear, there were more important things to do right now, and he shouldn't let this kind of thing delay him.

He had initially intended to travel with Hector and the other two so that he could lend a hand if necessary, but then he thought that if he suddenly appeared in a critical moment, he would easily be mistaken for an enemy. It would be better to follow Farion, whom he knew well, so as to avoid some misunderstandings.

But in the blink of an eye, Farin and the illusionist had completely concealed themselves, and even he could not detect them.

"As expected of a seasoned illusionist, their ability to conceal their presence is only slightly weaker than my Clement's protective barrier."

However, he had already learned the whereabouts of Farin and his companion through listening to the others' war meeting; that was the only altar in the triangular ritual that they had not destroyed.

He immediately used the speed-boosting effect of the Agility Potion to rush deeper into the Whispering Forest.

The originally long journey was significantly shortened, and he arrived near the last Green Tower camp in less than half an hour.

But here, Lynn was surprised to find a striking man-made structure.

In a lush, almost primeval forest-like environment, a rather simple seven-story round tower stands tall, like a giant that has been silent for many years, covered with moss and vines.

The tower in this world has a clear reference point: the Seven Towers of the Mages.

By observing the runes and magical patterns engraved on the tower, Lynn quickly determined that it pointed to the Green Tower.

"I can already imagine the furious look on Professor Farin's face when he sees this tower—it's utter blasphemy."

As traitors to the Green Tower, and since the Corruption Order originated from the Green Tower in ancient times, they naturally worshipped and pursued the "Green Tower" as the path to the source of magic.

However, even though both agree that the root cause lies in nature, their deeper views are completely contradictory.

The Green Tower believes that nature should follow the path of harmony, and that rules and reason still exist in nature, while the Corruption Cult is keen on the evil path of chaos and infinite confusion.

This can be seen from the fact that Adonis, whom they worship, has the ability to merge all things regardless of racial segregation or even material form.
