Chapter 171 008: Interception

"It is indeed man-eating mud, no wonder..."

Man-eating mud is a magical life form that lives underground. It is commonly found in swamps and mixed in the swamp mud. When a creature passes by, it will drag the creature into the swamp and slowly devour it.

Luo Xi took out a small bottle and collected some man-eating mud and put it into the bottle. This thing has certain research value. Since he encountered it in the wild when he was out, he might as well collect some and take it back to study it slowly.

He continued walking forward.

As he walked, the soles of his feet naturally released a stream of icy energy. Under the influence of this energy, a layer of ice appeared directly on the road surface beneath his feet, and those annoying swamps were also frozen by this icy energy.

This is a simplified application of the frost spell, which was created by Luo Xi by improving the frost spell. It can be regarded as Luo Xi's original spell.

It doesn't look very good but it has a wide range of uses. Freezing a swamp is nothing. With it, Luo Xi can easily freeze the water surface and walk on the water without the help of any external objects. It is very convenient to cross the sea and the river.

After walking around, Luo Xi found a relatively clean and solid open space in the swamp and sat down to meditate.

His mission was to be stationed here and snipe the dark wizard apprentices who fled in this direction.

The Alliance's attack on the Dark Forest has begun, and the nearby Shadow Tower, as one of the largest wizard organizations in the Dark Forest, is definitely the Alliance's main attack direction.

This wizard organization is said to have hundreds of apprentices. It is inevitable that some will slip through the net at the beginning of the war. Luo Xi's duty is to intercept them.

Apprentices are extremely valuable resources no matter where they are placed, even dark wizard apprentices.

After these apprentices are screened, those with decent qualifications can be further trained. Those with poor qualifications but who have meditated on one or two runes or even mastered a few spells can be arranged to serve in certain positions in the alliance and continue to shine. They cannot be lost in vain.

Closing his eyes, Luo Xi quickly entered a state of meditation.

Time flies, and a few days have passed in the blink of an eye.

"Complete a meditation, time +6 days."

That morning, Luo Xi had just finished a round of meditation when Nilu suddenly jumped down from a dead tree.

"Brother Luo Xi, there is movement over there."

After entering into meditation, Luo Xi gave Nilu an order to patrol the swamp. The swamp was not small and he could not sense such a vast area by himself.

"Is it finally here?"

Luo Xi stood up and asked, "How many people are there?"

Ni Lu said: "Three, two female apprentices and one male apprentice, all of them are low-level apprentices."

Luo Xi nodded: "Okay, lead the way."

Meanwhile, south of Black Swamp.

"Da da da."

The sound of hurried footsteps echoed in the swamp. Three apprentices, a man and two women, were walking through the swamp.

Calver took out his magic wand and waved it forward. With a whoosh sound, a gust of wind blew forward. After the strong wind, a thin layer of wind element could be clearly seen attached to some places on the ground.

He then turned to the two female apprentices behind him and said, "This is the detection spell I secretly learned when I cleaned Mentor Morpheus' study last time. With it, it will be easy for us to cross this man-eating swamp."

A female apprentice with golden curly hair beside him said with admiration, "Senior Culver, that's great. Going out with you is the best decision we made today, don't you think? Odessa?"

A black-haired female apprentice beside him nodded and took Calver's arm: "We will need Calver's help on the rest of the journey."

Feeling the softness between the skins, Culver also began to get distracted.

In the Tower of Shadows, he was not some magical genius who was admired by all the stars. He was just a low-level apprentice in his twenties, and had just meditated out the second basic rune of will.

Such qualifications are very common even in the Black Witch Domain. On a normal day, he would never enjoy the treatment of being surrounded by such beautiful apprentices. Suddenly, Calver felt that this disaster was actually quite good.

Speaking of this, Culver really felt like his life was about to be extinguished.

Just a few days ago, those wizards from the south actually attacked us, which was completely beyond everyone's expectations.

After all, ever since Calver came to the Dark Forest, the wizards in the south were easy to bully in his impression. His mentor even often led them to plunder the magic plantations in the border areas. They could get a lot of money every time, and sometimes they could even kidnap a few apprentices.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

No matter how excessive their actions were, Nanfang never responded, just like cotton that could be easily kneaded. The instructor also always told them that they were just weak sheep.

However, it was this group of sheep that suddenly launched an attack on them for the first time, and the momentum was so huge that there were more than hundreds of formal wizards besieging their Shadow Tower alone, including sages and even great sages.

Calver had never seen such a big scene before. Under the siege of so many wizards, their invincible mentors were defeated one after another.

Fortunately, Culver had a bad premonition in advance, and sneaked out of the tower early through a secret passage he accidentally discovered when he was on a mission before, thus avoiding the bloody battle afterwards.

Just before he left, his mentor who had failed in the battle in the tower had issued a war order to mobilize the entire army. If he was still in the tower, he would have to pick up his wand and follow the other apprentices to fight those white wizards. In that case, the possibility of his survival would be very slim.

Calver hadn't lived long enough. As for the wizard tower, the mentor, and other apprentices, what did their lives have to do with him? In his eyes, as long as the world was not destroyed, everything was fine. After all, he was a spellcaster. If this place was destroyed, couldn't he go somewhere else? If the wizard world couldn't accommodate him anymore, he could just go to the secular world and be a boss.

"Don't worry, Apprentice Odessa. Since I can bring you out, I can certainly take you to a safe place. You won't go wrong by following me."

As he spoke, Calver gently touched the female apprentice's buttocks. He had liked the two girls beside him for a long time, but he was mediocre in the tower before and was not worthy of others.

Until the disaster struck, he relied on his own secret passage and deliberately invited the two girls when he fled. As expected, the two girls, like him, did not want to die here easily, so they immediately agreed to flee with him.

At this moment, facing Calver's obscenity, Odessa did not resist at all, but said coquettishly: "We believe you, Apprentice Calver, I feel relieved with your words."

As he was speaking, suddenly——

"Whoosh!~" A strong wind blew over from the front, and then a figure suddenly appeared in the swamp.
