Chapter 67

Li Hao promised the base not to get involved, but when he was playing with Victoria, he couldn't help but ask her about her experiences in the past two months.

Is there anything unusual about those monsters? Have you seen anything yellow?

But Victoria didn't get anything out of him. Finally, Li Hao gave up and focused on having fun with Victoria.

Of course, he also didn't forget to collect some things from the magical world. Occasionally, he would appear as a third-level wizard and discuss issues related to the Archmage with others.

However, two days before Li Hao was about to leave, the great wizard arrived.

Li Hao originally thought that such an important person would take at least ten days to arrive. He did not expect the Grand Master to arrive so quickly.

Fortunately, Li Hao received the message and was chatting with Davis, disguised as Perry, about how to better utilize the melody and create his own spells.

She and Davis hurried out to greet the Archmage.

When they reached the entrance of the Mage Tower, they saw a group of people walking out of the light circle. Li Hao stared at the light circle with trembling pupils.

It was obvious they hadn't hurried here, but had been teleported directly. The Archmage's teleportation magic was truly teleportation, unlike some magical tools, which were actually formations.

Is this the ability of the great wizard?

Singed must have reported the matter upon arrival in the imperial capital. He hadn't expected the Archmage to be so forthright. All three of them hurried forward to pay their respects.

Davis had not forgotten to ask the second-level mages in the Mage Tower to cast formal spells to welcome him.

But as the Archmage's gaze swept over the three of them, Li Hao felt as if she were frozen in place, unable to move. It felt like a heavy mountain was bearing down on her.

Fortunately, this feeling was only momentary.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense. Let's go and show me the forest." The wizard acted decisively.

Li Hao raised her head and looked at the great wizard. She unexpectedly met his gaze. She felt as if he was examining her.

Fortunately, the other person's eyes quickly looked away.

Since the Grand Wizard said so, no one cared about the low-level Wizards running over from the Wizard Tower and flew directly to the Magic Forest.

The Archmage, besides his luminous white robe, held a staff in his hand. He wore a headband resembling a forehead ornament. He appeared to be a middle-aged man. Following him were an armored warrior and a grandmother with completely white hair, clutching a notebook. Even during the flight, she continued to write.

"This must be the new wizard." The archmage suddenly spoke.

"Yes, Lord Yapu." Li Hao replied quickly.

"What a promising young man." The great wizard sighed.

Li Hao's heart tightened, thinking that he might have noticed something.

But fortunately, after sighing like this, he didn't say anything else. And considering the Archmage's 300-year-old age, Perry was still a teenager.

They soon arrived at the Warcraft Forest, where there was a protective shield covering the devastated forest.

It wasn't just the Archmage who came here; the Queen of the Elf Tribe was also here. I believed that in two days, the King of the Dwarf Tribe and the Chief of the Orcs would also be here soon.

Then the two bosses had a conversation, and Li Hao and others just had to fulfill their responsibility of accompanying them.

They entered the forest directly. The traces of the disaster had not yet faded. The Elf Queen was incredibly beautiful, with long white-gold hair. When the sunlight shone on her skin, it looked like it was gilded.

She was as beautiful as a painting. Even when she squatted on the ground and put her hands on the dirt, when she raised her hands again, there was no stain at all.

"There is something strange here. There are many traces of magic in the land." said the Elf Queen.

"It's a space spell. Maybe that's why those monsters suddenly appeared." The archmage added to what the Elf Queen said.

His attainments in magic were clearly far greater than the Elf Queen's, and he could quickly judge this from the magical environment left behind.

"And these spells are all human spells, so this is your human business." The Elf Queen pointed out a very important point.

The person who did this was most likely a human wizard or some organization. These monsters all appeared through space teleportation technology.

After saying this, the Elf Queen led the Elf people away. Since this is a matter of you humans, then it has nothing to do with other races.

The Archmage didn't react as he watched the Elf Queen leave. He raised his staff, and as he did so, a magical beast suddenly appeared.

As soon as the monster appeared, it attacked them, even spewing out a ball of flame. Li Hao looked at the flames spewed out by the monster. He felt an unexpected familiarity.

Of course, the great wizard was not afraid of these flames. Li Hao saw a magical scene and he actually caught the flames.

That’s right, the flames spewed out by the monster were caught, not caught by magic, but really caught.

"In fact, every spell is composed of various elements and specific rules. The moment a spell is cast, it becomes an independent entity. You can think of it as a living being. Since it is a living being, it has a creator... and the creator of this spell is you."

When he said this, he looked at Li Hao.

Li Hao was frightened. She opened her mouth, not knowing what to say. The others also looked at her warily. Especially the knight, who had raised his sword and pointed it at Li Hao.

"It's not just this." As he spoke, another monster suddenly appeared. This monster actually commanded a group of metal bees to attack them.

Now, the people from the capital looked at the people from Charleston differently. They obviously thought that this mess was most likely caused by the mages from Charleston.

"This, this..." Now it was Davis' turn to be speechless.

"The monsters here are actually a whole entity, not individual entities. Yet they can replicate your spells. This is both miraculous and terrifying," the Grand Master exclaimed. "I guess your abilities were copied when you were clearing out these monsters earlier."

It was also a way of explaining it to them, but it was not something they taught.

"And the reason they can appear and disappear so mysteriously is indeed because of us humans, just as the elves said. They must have copied the space spell, which is why they can appear and disappear so mysteriously." The great wizard pointed out the important point at once.

Li Hao also figured it out all of a sudden. If these monsters could copy spells, then during the first beast tide, after these mages came, the monsters' abilities became stronger and stronger. They also learned to hide.

But Li Hao also thought of something terrifying: the Zerg, which has the ability to copy the genes of other races. It devoured the Warcraft genes, thus generating this kind of Warcraft that is no different from Warcraft.

Then, under the spell attacks one by one, they devoured the mages' attacks. Just as the Grand Mage said, every spell was devoured by these monsters.

"You said you would never take risks again." A voice came from the headset.

Li Hao didn't say anything, but the people at the base already knew what she was thinking.

The great wizard suddenly looked at Li Hao, then waved his hand and turned the two monsters into ashes.

"Let me see what's causing this trouble." The Archmage swung his staff vigorously. A red halo appeared from the staff and then spread out in all directions.

Then, right in front of them, a crack appeared, as if a painting had been torn apart out of thin air.

Li Hao saw a yellow cocoon inside, and a yellow fleshy ball that kept squeezing out of the cocoon.

Zerg! It's the Zerg, the same Zerg from Doomsday and StarCraft!

"Disgusting thing!" The Grand Master looked at the thing hidden in the special space and took out the meat ball.

The moment he took out the meatball-like thing, he tore it into several pieces.

"What exactly is this thing made of? Let's stop here for today. There's more than one thing like this under this forest." The great wizard was very interested in this unprecedented thing. After all, being able to copy the attacks of other creatures at will was a very interesting discovery. Perhaps once he figured it out, his path to becoming a mage would be further advanced.

Li Hao looked pale as he watched the great wizard collect several cocoons that had not yet hatched and the meat ball that had been broken into several pieces.

After saying this, the great wizard teleported directly back to the royal capital and went to his laboratory to study these "monsters".

Li Hao followed Davis and others back to the Mage Tower.

It seems that the matter was resolved like this.

"The Grand Master still needs to take action, otherwise we may not be able to deal with the new monsters now." Davis said thankfully.

She wanted to tell them it was a Zerg thing.

"...You must not speak. You have no way to explain how you knew about the Zerg. With this archmage here, you won't even have a chance to click back." The base described the consequences as very serious.

But he wasn't trying to scare Li Hao. The Archmage's abilities were so terrifying that he could have thousands of ways to prevent Li Hao from clicking home.

Ordinary poisons can already make Li Hao lose his ability, and the magic of the great wizard will only become more unpredictable.

But why did she just keep silent about it? Didn't she know that the Archmage would find the Zerg's lair?

What he just found was just an ordinary branch nest. He had to find all the nests and destroy them.

The Zerg are divided into the Hive and the Spawn. The Hive controls all Zerg. The Spawn is responsible for reproduction. Destroying only the Spawn is like cutting off the branches of a tree; it has no effect on the Zerg. Destroying only the Hive will cause one of the Spawns to automatically evolve into the Hive and take over its responsibilities.

This is also why the Zerg were never completely eradicated in the initial apocalyptic world. Only the final, desperate global nuclear launch, wiping out every hive at once, ended the catastrophe.

Can the Archmage do it? He can easily find the nest, can he do it?
