Wizard's Journey

Chapter 338 The Nest of the World (Bonus Chapter for Monthly Tickets)

Five days later.

After traversing the spider's nest for more than sixty hours, during which they even happened to pass through a passage not recorded on the crystal ball, the group stopped in the long darkness and stared in astonishment ahead.

Tens of thousands of soul slaves flew in a vast procession, led by hundreds of demon-hunting wizards.

The large demon hunter team quickly noticed the Thousand-Eyed Crab and the group of demon hunter dark wizards.

Puff, puff...

Behind them was a massive army of soul slave monsters, a chaotic mix of roars, howls, and flapping wings; ahead stood a well-organized, disciplined, wise, and powerful army of demon hunter wizards.

The leader of the Demon Hunter Wizard Legion is a female Level 3 Demon Hunter Wizard, who stands majestically at the very front of the entire legion.

The gathering of elemental light caused by the large number of Ming Wizard legions illuminated the vast sky as if it were daytime.

Dressed in a white wizard's robe and wearing a tall hat, the leader of the Ming Wizards had the dignified face of a middle-aged woman, seemingly without any other distinguishing features. At the tip of her straight magic wand, a ball of pale yellow elemental light shone, drawing out an elemental radiance that resembled a ribbon.

Do not!

It's not that it lacks distinctive features...

Green was shocked to sense that the other party's control over the power of nature was so strong that it was actually suppressing him in a subtle way. Although it was not as absolute as the suppression of a formal wizard over a wizard apprentice, if the two of them were to fight, he would be completely manipulated by the other party!

Green and Arathi flew forward a distance and respectfully performed wizardly etiquette towards the level three female demon hunter wizard, bowing slightly.

"Um."

The middle-aged, elegant witch nodded sternly, glanced at the Thousand-Eyed Crab in the distance a few more times, and said calmly, "Be careful on the way. The thought voice of the nest tarantula is extremely effective against elemental wizards. Although there are three teams of Ming wizards constantly clearing out the remaining nest tarantulas in this tarantula's nest, the nest is quite large, and there are bound to be some that are missed."

After Alashan and Green nodded, they did not tell the powerful Level 3 Witch Hunter about how their group had just wiped out a miniature tarantula nest.

Arara suddenly asked, "Respected Demon Hunter Grand Wizard, does the operations command have any plans for this tarantula's nest?"

The dignified and imposing level three female witch hunter glanced indifferently at the withered-faced old witch, Alashan.

"You are the first group of Dark Wizards to venture alone into the Snowline Nest, arranged by the Operations Command. The Operations Command did not make proper arrangements in this regard. Future Dark Wizards will be escorted by Soul Slaves before entering the Spider Nest, so there is no need to worry."

"I see."

Ararat nodded.

Grimm wore the Mask of Truth with its gray-white spiral pattern, and a pair of elemental eyes silently watched from the holes in the mask.

As a first-level wizard, Green simply stood there quietly without saying a word.

After a brief stop, the level three archmage continued leading his large group on the demon-hunting and cleanup mission, while Arashan and Green continued to lead their team towards their destination.

Two days later.

"Hehe... Finally, I'm leaving this wretched place."

The myna bird seemed to have rested enough in the dimensional gap and came out for some fresh air again, standing on Green's shoulder and talking happily and contentedly.

In the distance lies a vast canyon, above which float several high-powered magic lamps, illuminating the surroundings. Hundreds of soul slaves and a small squad of demon-hunting wizards guard the canyon.

Not only the myna bird, but both teams of demon hunters secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The pressure on everyone these days has been immense. Although Salis temporarily resolved some of the threats posed by the Voice of Thought using the crowing rooster, that was only against some low-level nest tarantulas.

If a level 2 or even level 3 nesting wolf spider were to appear, leading hundreds of adult nesting wolf spiders...

Fortunately, the group did not encounter such a terrifying situation.

"Huh? What's this...?"

Above the canyon passage of the Tarantula's Nest, Green murmured in surprise as he smelled that familiar, deathly fragrance.

Of the fourteen demon hunters present, only Grimm possessed a medal of honor and was dispatched by the Black Sota Stigmata Wizard to carry out a special mission.

The other witch hunters also sensed this unusual, sweet-smelling aura of death and cautiously opened their wizard shields to isolate the scent.

Everyone couldn't help but glance at Green.

At the top of the Thousand-Eyed Crab, Grimm's face was solemn, but he didn't say much. Instead of using ultrasonic positioning magic to sense the surrounding situation, he raised the Ram's Horned Skull Magic Staff, which also lit up a patch of elemental light.

Gradually, as the Thousand-Eyed Crab drew closer to the bottom of the valley, a scene that made Ge extremely solemn appeared.

These countless skeletons...

These densely packed, six-petaled gray flowers...

These skeletons were actually the same skeletons that Grimm had accidentally discovered at a skeletal site while carrying out a special mission as a Black Tower Stigmata Wizard on the surface ice plains.

Green speculated that this humanoid creature, which was generally about 1.5 meters tall, with a head-to-body ratio of 1:13, wings on its back, was herbivorous, and possessed a death energy crystal core, was privately named the Locust Man.

Green had no idea that not only had these incomprehensible skeletal remains appeared on the surface of this nest world, but that similar remains had also appeared deep within the nest.

This……

The Black Tower Stigmata Wizard must have personally walked through this World Nest passage and must have discovered the situation here, yet he also showed no reaction.

Why is that?

From the perspective of a first-level demon hunter wizard, Green simply couldn't understand why the operations command hadn't issued any notification about such an extraordinary site.

If the witchers were attacked by these locust-men in the lair world, the consequences would be unimaginable.

After a brief moment of shock at the countless skeletons, several of the demon hunters began to study the remains and the death energy crystals with astonishment.

The gray, deathly flowers that approached the demon hunters shrunk into their crystal cores and disappeared without a trace.

In the distance, a stone building over thirty meters tall caught the attention of others.

Although the stone building was simple and now dilapidated with only two stone pillars remaining, some symbols on the pillars attracted the attention of everyone present, who began to observe them intently.

This time, no one could deceive themselves with mere chance.

Beneath the mask of truth, Grimm stared intently at the strange yet familiar symbols on the stone pillar, and in disbelief, pulled out a leather scroll from the dimensional gap.

This scroll is the "Devil's Contract" that Grimm tricked from the Dark Flame God of another world during his time as a wizard apprentice.

Yes, it is indeed the same civilization system!

After receiving confirmation, Green took a deep breath and pondered quietly what the relationship was between this nest world and the Dark Flame God.

What exactly is the great Black Sota Stigmata Wizard planning?

"Huh?"

The myna bird was curiously circling the two tall, dilapidated stone pillars when it suddenly cried out in surprise and landed on the ground covered with bones.

"Gagaga, young master, young master, come here quickly, we're going to be rich, gagaga..."

The small myna bird, with its frail body, dug diligently through the layers of bones like a puppy. While deep in thought with a solemn expression, Green walked over to the myna bird and also noticed something glittering under the elemental light beneath the bones.

"What is this?"

Slightly surprised, Green placed Hachi on his shoulder and used the combined forces of repulsion and attraction to dig away the bones buried on top, revealing a large glass mirror surface.

"What, what is this!?"

Green picked up the glass lens, his gaze intense; even if Green were dull-witted, he couldn't possibly be unaware of it.

This nest world must be inextricably linked to that Dark Flame God, and the purpose of the Black Sota Saint Mark Wizard in conquering this world must also be the same!

If we speculate in this way, then the task that the Black Sota Saint-Stigma Wizard will entrust to him before the end of this Demon Hunting Expedition, given his special treatment of him, is probably...

Thinking of this, Green took a deep breath, and his eyes beneath the gray-white mask of truth gradually became calm and profound.
