Huang Chen looked back at her and said jokingly, "When you want to find me, you're a magician, and when you don't want to find me, you're a perverted murderer. How can you be so fickle?"

"This isn't fickleness..." Magdeburg paused. "I just saw a strange light in the woods, and Kronstadt and the others might have gone to find the magician."

Huang Chen narrowed his eyes and felt that the girl's words actually made some sense.

He looked at Baltimore, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "How do you feel?"

"I don't feel anything. Commander, if you want to go, just go. It's like an adventure." Baltimore was a little surprised, but then he smiled and seemed eager to try.

Huang Chen paused, "Then let's go and take a look..."

"Boom-"

Before he could finish his words, a heavy voice rang out from the depths of the birch forest.

Like a heavy object falling to the ground, the heavy statue crashed down onto the solid earth.

The sound is not too loud, nor harsh, but extremely profound.

"Did you hear that?" Huang Chen asked.

"I heard something heavy fall to the ground." Magdeburg nodded.

"How could there be something so heavy in the birch wood?" Huang Chen asked doubtfully.

Magdeburg seemed to take it for granted, "Because he's a magician."

Huang Chen glanced at her, said nothing, and shook his head, "Whatever it is, go and see and you'll know."

"Yeah." The girl nodded.

We drove out of the woods and parked it in an open space nearby when we couldn't go any further.

After preparing all the necessary things for departure, he nodded and walked along the path into the depths of the woods.

Chapter 1218 Lake and Tower

The snow was thick in the birchwood.

There was white snow everywhere on the branches and on the ground.

But between those white quilts, there is a winding path.

Huang Chen held a flashlight, and the beam of light swayed in the night, opening up a farther road.

"Speaking of which, since there's a path here, why did the clerk say that everyone was afraid to enter the forest?"

On the way, he said with some doubt.

Magdeburg suddenly fell into thought, his brows furrowed like small hills.

Baltimore chuckled and said, "Maybe we're just wandering around the periphery and won't dare go in further."

"It seems so." Huang Chen nodded, walked along the path for a few minutes, and sure enough, he reached the end.

There wasn't much snow in front, but it was covered with thick branches and weeds, and some steep rocks broke through the soil, revealing their hideous faces.

Huang Chen looked back and could no longer see the outskirts of the woods.

There are branches growing randomly all around, black and white intertwined together, which looks a bit eerie in the night.

"How do we go now? Keep going forward?"

As he spoke, he took two steps forward.

The thick dead leaves are like sponges, and they feel soft when you step on them.

The trees on both sides are too dense and need to be taken care of as you walk.

"Let's go a little further. I remember the light was in a deeper place." Magdeburg said, hesitated for a moment, walked to the front, and summoned two small fish.

Oh no, it's two ship-mounted pets.

Huang Chen looked over in surprise. This was the first time he saw Magdeburg's ship-mounted pet.

He always thought that the girl didn't have it.

However, it turned out that it was not that it didn't exist, but that it was too small, much smaller than Heinrich and the others, and it actually had a well-behaved feeling.

"You can laugh all you want. I can't do anything about this. It's all the fault of the game developer."

Magdeburg said with a puffed face, his voice a little muffled.

Baltimore hesitated to speak.

Huang Chen shook his head and said softly, "It's okay, the small ones are also very cute."

"I always feel that what the commander said is a bit suspicious." The girl frowned, then controlled the ship equipment and led the way.

Although small, it is surprisingly useful.

Strong and powerful, lively and active, they moved one after the other, and soon a path appeared between the narrow woods.

The three of them followed Xiaoyu for another ten minutes, but still found nothing.

The three of them walked at a fast pace. From the moment they entered the birch wood, they had been walking for nearly twenty minutes, which was about one or two kilometers.

But still no one saw the so-called magician, not even a clue.

Huang Chen stopped and looked back at the increasingly dense forest. He said with some concern, "Why don't we just stop here? I'm afraid if we keep going like this, we might get lost."

In fact, he was already a little disoriented.

Fortunately, the path behind me still exists, so I don’t have to worry about getting lost. However, if I continue walking, problems may arise.

"I think so too." Baltimore nodded.

"Don't worry, Commander, stay with me and don't worry about getting lost!" Magdeburg said carelessly.

Huang Chen glanced at the girl with some disdain, but she took out a small piece of equipment from her pocket and asked mysteriously, "Look, what is this?"

"compass?"

Huang Chen blinked, then laughed, "You actually carry this thing with you."

"Isn't this going to come in handy?" the girl chuckled, stroking her chin with a thoughtful look. "Actually, I had a feeling before that maybe it was because of the flashlight that we couldn't find it for so long."

Huang Chen stared at the girl and pondered for a moment, "Just now I thought you were getting smarter, but I didn't expect you to start talking nonsense right away."

"Commander!" Magdeburg glared. "I'm serious. If you use a flashlight, you won't be able to see the strange light outside."

Huang Chen blinked immediately.

Baltimore also had a strange expression on his face and whispered, "It seems like there is some truth to it?"

"It seems so." Huang Chen nodded.

"In that case, turn off the flashlight now and take a look at where the light is," Magdeburg urged.

Huang Chen hesitated for a moment and turned off the flashlight.

Suddenly, only the bright moonlight remained in the woods, with black shadows of trees and white snowflakes intertwined with each other, and farther away it was completely pitch black.

Huang Chen shuddered inexplicably, took a long breath and said, "Let's turn on the flashlight."

"Wait." The girl held Huang Chen's hand.

At this moment, something suddenly flashed in a position in front of the left.

There is light ahead.

Huang Chen was stunned.

Magdeburg said with a smile, "You're right, aren't you? Now I see it."

Baltimore looked strange and said in surprise, "It really exists. I thought Magdeburg was mistaken."

Huang Chen didn't say anything, but he thought so too.

Magdeburg was a little angry, but he just puffed his lips and shouted, "Stop talking and get out of here."

"Sorry, sorry." Baltimore said embarrassedly.

Huang Chen reached out and rubbed the girl's head, smiling and praising, "Very impressive, if it weren't for you, we might not have discovered it."

"Okay, let's go quickly." Magdeburg said shyly and went ahead.

Huang Chen and Baltimore smiled at each other and followed.

Although the surroundings had become much darker without a flashlight, the bright moonlight prevented the three of them from being completely in the dark.

Especially the light that lights up from time to time in front is more like a lighthouse, guiding the direction.

After walking for another ten minutes, the view suddenly opened up and a vast lake appeared before our eyes.

The moonlight shimmered, rippling across the frozen lake, with sparse trees growing around it.

On the opposite side of the lake, a tall tower made of thick bricks and rocks stood out, with a fire flickering on its top.

"lighthouse?"

Huang Chen said subconsciously, and then realized why there was a lighthouse by the lake.

"Woohoo—this is the Mage Tower!"

Magdeburg suddenly became excited, jumped onto the ice on the lake, ran two steps, turned back, and shouted, "Hurry up and go find the magician."

"Okay, I'm really curious too." Huang Chen said, walking towards the ice layer.

Baltimore was a little worried, stretched out his little hand and said, "Be careful."

"Do not worry."

Huang Chen smiled, but still held the girl's hand and walked to the lake.

The ice is very thick, so I'm not afraid of falling.

The three of them walked to the bottom of the tower. Before they got ashore, they saw a black object falling from the top of the tower. It suddenly landed on the ground with a heavy sound.

Chapter 1219: Strange Tower

Something very, very big suddenly fell down.

Suddenly fell into the open space next to the tower.

Although it was still some distance away from the lake, the wind and waves it brought still spread over and even blew down some dead branches and twigs.

If I took two more steps forward, I would be hit on the head by that thing...

Huang Chen shuddered, inexplicably feeling that the tower in front of him became dangerous.

Even Magdeburg looked alert, muttering to himself, "He really is a perverted murderer. Could it be that the missing guy accidentally looked like this?"

"Don't say that." Huang Chen said.

The girl continued to mutter, "Maybe we can find some fragments of that unlucky guy around here."

"I told you not to say such things." Huang Chen reached out and held the girl's head, then hugged her and rubbed it, still feeling a little hairy on the back.

Baltimore seemed quite calm, and said thoughtfully, "Kronstadt is right here? How did she find her way here?"

"Who knows?"

Huang Chen let go of his hand, walked around the open space and came to the shore, looking curiously at the big thing that had just fallen.

Magdeburg carefully hid behind him and whispered, "Be careful, don't let anything fall down again."

Huang Chen's face darkened, and he whispered, "If something really falls, I will try to take you with me when I leave."

"Really?" Magdeburg complained.

Huang Chen didn't say anything, but continued to stare at the thing for a while, "It looks a bit like..."

"A big bag of luggage." Baltimore replied.

"Yes, a large bag of luggage." Huang Chen nodded and looked up at the tower. Then he suddenly realized, "They are packing up their things and throwing them down directly after they are packed."

As he spoke, he discovered that not far from the luggage, there was a huge object, black and looking like a furnace, stuck crookedly in the ground.

"Could that thing be the muffled sound we heard before?"

He said with some toothache.

If the huge bag of luggage only made him a little amazed, then the melting pot could really teach him a profound lesson.
