Wizard's Journey

Chapter 342 The Nest of the World (18)

The true combat command is an organization that leads and formulates all demon hunter wizard action plans under the will of the Holy Mark Wizards during the Demon Hunter Expedition, and is not accessible to ordinary demon hunter wizards.

Sometimes, the operations command will contact the Medal of Honor witcher directly, but they will not actually make contact.

They were like the soul and wisdom of the Demon Hunter Expedition's demon hunter team, receiving the highest level of protection from the expedition. Most of them came from the organization Dawn Wisdom, with a small number being members with demon hunter achievements.

The demon hunters who usually issue missions to the demon hunters are just shadows of the combat command, also known as demon hunter contract messengers, and are just ordinary demon hunter wizards.

The space inside the metal aircraft is not very large.

This was the early stage of developing the Nest World, and only a few demon hunters and dark wizards led their teams to the Second Operations Command Center located at the core of the Nest World to receive demon hunting missions.

Grimm, dressed in a wide, dark black wizard's robe and wearing a gray-white spiral-patterned Mask of Truth, with a beautiful, plump myna perched on his shoulder, slowly walked step by step across the metal floor toward a demon hunter's contract messenger in the hall, leaning on his ram-horned skull magic staff.

"This is my 'World Nest Passage Exploration' quest scroll. I need quest assignments."

Green's mission contract states that the first step of the mission is to go to the second operational command post at Snowline Nest to arrange the specific exploration route.

Otherwise, if a demon hunter were to explore recklessly and stumble upon a nest-like space similar to a tarantula's lair, he would only face certain death!

This is a serene wizard wearing glasses, the glass lenses slightly reflecting the light of the magic lamp in the room, obscuring a pair of deep and wise eyes.

Unlike other demon hunter contract messengers that Green had encountered before, this demon hunter contract messenger had a sign on his desk that read "Lucian".

Beneath the mask of truth, the elemental light in Grimm's eyes flickered slightly and strangely. His name?

Lucian raised his head and looked at Grimm. The light from his glasses disappeared, and he didn't speak. Instead, a ball of elemental light appeared out of thin air and formed a series of wizarding characters in mid-air.

Green's pupils contracted; this astonishing control over the forces of nature...

After a moment of slight shock, Green finally looked at the meaning of the string of wizarding words.

"After the Ming Wizard Legion has cleared the strongest nest space at the bottom of the Snowline Nest Bone Tunnel, return to hand over the mission."

Green was lost in thought for a moment.

From the perspective of the Snowline Nest, the core of the World Nest, the larger the tunnel entrance in the countless tunnels at the top, the more snow worms there are, which in turn proves that the associated nest space is relatively weak.

On the contrary, the smaller the tunnel entrance connecting to the Snowline Nest, the more it proves that a powerful biological group lives in the nest space above, killing large numbers of snow worms and controlling their population.

Consequently, only a small number of snow worms reached the Snowline Nest.

And the bone tunnel?

Green recalled his journey from the surface ice field to the Snowline Nest, where he had also discovered a large collection of bones within the Tarantula Nest.

The creatures in the various nests, large and small, that existed before the Tarantula's Nest posed no threat whatsoever to Arash and Green's group of demon hunters and dark wizards.

After the tarantula's nest, although it had been cleared by a large number of wizard legions, some remaining creatures still posed a considerable threat to the subsequent witch hunter wizards. These were all quite powerful and bizarre creatures.

So...

Does this mean that wherever large numbers of skeletons are left behind, there must be a powerful biological group that resisted the locust-men invasion and carried out a fierce massacre?

The tunnel before the remains were left behind contained only weaker groups of creatures, which posed little threat to these locust-men.

Meanwhile, the World Nest passages that the combat command ordered the Demon Hunter Dark Wizards to explore were all passages where skeletons were left in the Snowline Nest. This proved that the creatures living in the nest space above the skeletons were very weak, similar to the nest space in front of the Tarantula Nest.

At the very least, there should be a correct route that was once developed by the Locust People!

At the same time, does this calculation mean that the skeletal site that Green accidentally discovered on the surface ice field indicates that a powerful biological race lives in a nest space near the surface ice field, beneath the skeletons of the locust people?

We should be thankful that Green didn't explore further because he was focused on advancing time to complete a special mission.

Otherwise, we might actually encounter some unknown danger!

Based on his guesses, Green continued to ask the quest giver named 'Lucian', "So, is this where the dark wizard and light wizard teams exchange quests?"

The string of Radiant Wizard text on the table began to change shape once again.

In the time it takes to breathe, these flaming characters formed another string of wizarding characters. This witch hunter's control over the forces of nature was simply divine and unbelievable.

"Self-handover?"

Nodding, Green briefly surveyed the tranquil mission hall in contemplation before leaving the metal mechanical aircraft room and flying towards the Thousand-Eyed Crab overhead.

The nine members of the Grimm Squad, including Naraku, Lulianman, and Salis, all looked at Grimm.

With his feet firmly planted on the reddish-brown fur on the highest point of the carapace in front of the Thousand-Eyed Giant Crab, Grimm said calmly, "Our objective is to explore the bone tunnel of the Snowline Nest. We'll wait for the Ming Wizard team to return before handing over the mission. The Ming Wizard team will be responsible for clearing out some of the most powerful creatures in the bottom of the nest, while our mission is to explore the long, arduous section that follows."

Everyone present was a fully-fledged, professional Remer wizard, not a novice demon hunter.

In an instant, he analyzed the entire mission process and began to secretly speculate about the significance of those bones.

In the distance, Three Pepper Ghost, leading six members of the Demon Hunter Squad, secretly glanced at Green's Demon Hunter Squad.

This wait lasted for three days.

Meanwhile, another team of demon hunters from the surface ice plains flew over. It was a team of nine level one demon hunters led by a level two demon hunter, and they waited for them along with the Three Pepper Ghosts team and the Green team.

As for the Ararat squad...

Since the Arashan team consisted of four level-two demon hunter wizards, they forcibly seized a pair of light wizards who had returned to hand over their mission a day earlier, and then went ahead to carry out their demon hunting mission, without caring about the feelings of the other dark demon hunter wizards.

This is also a rule among dark wizards.

Bored out of their minds, the myna and the parrot were arguing endlessly, Green was studying a crystal flower carefully, and Lulena was conducting a simple experiment with a specimen of ancient tadpoles.

All the witchers were doing their own thing.

Just then, the roars of a group of slave monsters came from the distant sky, growing louder as they approached.

Everyone looked up and saw tens of thousands of slave monsters and hundreds of Ming Wizard legions flying over in a mighty procession. Clearly, this was a Ming Wizard legion returning from a mission to clear out several nest spaces at the bottom of the Bone Tunnel, and they were about to hand over their mission.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

The Three Pepper Ghost Demon Hunter team, which had been waiting for a long time, flew over. The Three Pepper Ghost's dark red elemental eyes looked at the leader of the team of Ming Wizards.

This is a level two male Ming Wizard captain with a serious face, looking like a middle-aged man who is nearly fifty years old, with some graying eyebrows.

The captain of the Ming Wizards looked at the Three Pepper Ghost and was slightly surprised by the Level 2 Honor Badge on the Three Pepper Ghost Wizard's shield and the fact that each of the team members behind him was wearing an Honor Badge!

"Hehe, master, this is my mission scroll."

The Three-Pepper Ghost handed over the quest scroll, and the Ming Wizard Captain nodded. Just as he was about to exchange the quest scroll with the Three-Pepper Ghost, a sudden change occurred.

"Wait a moment!"

A deep, undeniable voice came from the other side. The captain of the Ming Wizard and the Three Pepper Ghost looked over and saw it was Green on the Thousand-Eyed Crab leading a group of demon hunters, calling out in a deep voice.

Green also took out a mission scroll.

Green commanded the Thousand-Eyed Crab to stop next to the Three-Pepper Demon, and sneered at the Three-Pepper Demon: "This handover mission belongs to Green's team."

"Belongs to Green's squad!?"

Not only Sanjiaogui, but also the angry voices of other team members such as Gabil, Loki, and Kuyak came almost simultaneously, their eyes fixed on Green with coldness and hostility.

Undeterred, Grimm leaned on his ram-horned skull magic staff, his eyes meeting those of every demon hunter looking at him beneath the Mask of Truth. His voice was chilling as he said, "Hmph, that's right, it belongs to Grimm's team."

With the Thousand-Eyed Giant Crab, a level-three creature, beneath his feet, Green stood in front of the demon hunter team members, speaking with unbridled abandon as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

The captain of the Ming Wizard team hesitated slightly.

As a second-level open wizard, he already knew the rules among dark wizards very well, but at this moment, the two sides...

On one side is the captain with a second-class medal of honor, whose potential is limitless, and all six team members are wearing medals of honor.

On the other side was a Level 3 Honor Medal captain, who was standing on top of a terrifying Level 3 creature!

Just as the captain of the Ming Wizard was caught in a dilemma and hesitated, Green sneered and raised the Ram Horned Skull Magic Staff high. With a light wave, a cold, brutal, and silent energy aura emerged from the two eye sockets of the ram horn skull at the top.

Not only the captain of the wizarding team, but everyone present was shocked and looked at Green.

This……

This is the genuine energy aura of a Black Sota Saint Mark Wizard!

Without further hesitation, the captain of the Ming Wizards took a deep breath and said to Green, "This demon hunter wizard, the mission is yours."

Taking the mission scroll, Grimm, standing atop the Thousand-Eyed Crab, let out a cold laugh. Beneath the Mask of Truth, his eyes looked down upon the angry gazes of the Three-Pepper Demon and his group of demon hunters. Fearless, he sneered and left.
