Chapter 162: Getting Away with It
Ding Yumian pursed her lips and motioned for him to move closer.
Bai Mo was worried about revealing his flaws, so he moved away and looked at her calmly while talking.
"I found that this frosted glass seems to be different from last night. It has become transparent glass. Don't you think it's magical!?"
Ding Yumian nodded calmly, and looked up at the frosted glass through the mirror. After rubbing the cleanser evenly on his face, he rubbed it with a slightly vague affirmation.
"magic!"
"Yeah."
Bai Mo nodded in satisfaction, and then pretended to analyze, "I think this should be magic glass. It can sense the change of time or light. It is transparent during the day, and it becomes frosted glass at night."
Wash off the foam on your face with clean water, and then dry it with a face towel. Ding Yumian glanced at him lightly and nodded calmly.
“That makes sense.”
"Haha, I think so too."
Bai Mo was very happy that he was not discovered and silently watched her use skin care products on her face.
And then give yourself some too.
Zhongshan Post Station is not big, but it has everything it needs.
There are quite a few stalls selling breakfast.
Bai Mo was originally wondering why the mage would set up a stall here to sell breakfast, but after he spent five hundred yuan to buy a basket of steamed dumplings that could be bought for five yuan in Shanghai.
Understood.
The dumplings are not handmade yet.
A day of rest was needed, mainly because Sikong Wen and the officially named water mage Ye Xing needed to restore their magic power, and they also had to buy magic stones to repair the magic tools.
Bai Mo accompanied Ding Yumian for a stroll around Zhongshan Island, but they were not just doing nothing to fall in love.
"According to the information I got, the soul seed is here."
In a small private room, Bai Mo and the other three sat around a square table with a map of the Zhongshan Islands spread out on it. Sikong Wen pointed to an island that was neither too far nor too close to Zhongshan Island.
It was an island neither small nor big, called Swamp Island.
Because most of the island is swamp.
"We can go from the northwest of Zhongshan Island to Zhongshan West Island, and then walk along the island chain. The water area in some places is not very large."
Sikong Wen talked about his plan and gestured with his fingers accordingly.
Ye Xing was brought here by him, and he was also a guest of the Sikong family, so he naturally cooperated with his actions. Therefore, there was nothing much to say, so he just nodded.
Bai Mo knew from his years of adventure that information was often the most important thing. Knowing what was ahead would make one more calm. So he said:
"So we need to cross three islands before we can enter this swamp island. It's not very far, but have you found out how to get there and what kind of monsters we might encounter along the way?"
"Of course, how can I be careless when looking for a soul seed for myself? By the way, the earth element you used the day before yesterday was a soul seed, right? Its power really made me jealous."
Sikong Wen said this with a smile, and then began to describe the situation of monsters on the road.
"We can't walk along the seashore. It's even more unsafe. There are many sea monsters living on the seashore of every island, both aquatic and land-climbing. We need to conserve our magic power and try not to fight."
He pointed at the west island of Zhongshan and said, "We can just go straight through the middle here."
"This island has been explored many times by hunters, and the center is a land of dark vanilla. Originally, we tried not to get close to this kind of psychic plant that can silently charm the mind, but with Miss Ding here, we don't have this trouble."
As he spoke, Sikong Wen looked up and smiled at the two of them, as if he felt a little embarrassed for hiring two thugs with the price of one.
"But in the trench of Zhongshan West Island lives a group of blue-ling evil monsters that we encountered that day."
"Is there a commander?" Bai Mo asked.
"No, not many, only about half a tribe. Unfortunately, at this time of year, the connection between the two islands has been submerged. Otherwise, you could have used teleportation to take us across."
"How wide is this channel?"
"Six hundred meters."
Sikong answered and then pointed to the deserted stone island.
"The ground of this island is inhabited by a creature called Rockcloth Terror. They are very similar to the wasteland on the Barren Stone Island. Once a living thing approaches, they will riot."
"We need two faster mages to scout the situation first and find a place without rock demons to pass through. Fortunately, there is a place where this island and the two islands next to it are very close, exactly 250 meters, which allows you to use teleportation to take us there."
Bai Mo nodded slightly, gradually dispelling his impression that Si Kongwen was a reckless man. He still had a plan. So he asked:
"What about the last island?"
Taking a deep breath, Sikong Wen's face became serious and his finger pointed at the last island.
"We must prepare the magic before crossing from Barren Stone Island to Cursed Crow Island."
"Only one kind of demon lives on this island, and that is the Blood-Eyed Cursed Crow! The entire island is their territory, and there are enough of them to form a tribe. Their bodies contain very powerful curse power. The higher the level, the stronger the curse power."
Bai Mo's face also turned serious. He had read about this kind of demon in a book. This was a demon with strange curse power.
Strictly speaking, there is actually only one Blood-Eyed Curse Crow, which is the Blood-Eyed Curse Crow Leader. No one knows where it came from.
Anyway, it appeared on this island, which was originally inhabited by a large number of black crows.
But when the blood-eyed curse crow's blood eyes swept over, the powerful curse power directly turned the group of black crows into its slaves, turning them into a group of blood-eyed curse crows.
Therefore, every bird that passes by the island will be cursed by a group of blood-eyed crows and turned into their kind.
There were also experienced high-level wizards who came and wanted to strangle the growing group of blood-eyed curse crows in the cradle, but they found that while the leader of the blood-eyed curse crows was extremely powerful, those slave warlord curse crows were all the replacements for the blood-eyed curse crow.
Once the Blood-Eyed Curse Crow Leader is on the verge of death, he will activate his curse ability and let the slave warriors who are infected by his curse die in his place.
As long as there is a Blood-Eyed Crow alive that is infected by its curse, this commander will never die.
Therefore, after discovering that it might take a lot of manpower to eliminate these cursed crows, they observed them for a long time.
After confirming that these curse crows would not leave Curse Crow Island, Zhongshan Island gave up the idea of eradicating them except for regularly clearing out a batch of curse crows.
"Miss Ding's mind magic can resist the curse, and so can Ye Xing's light magic. What we need to be careful about is not to get close to the center of the island, not to attract the attention of the blood-eyed curse crow leader, and not to be hurt by those curse crows. Then we can reach the swamp island relatively easily."
"The curse of these warrior slave-level curse crows is not a life-replacing curse, but a corrosion curse. It will directly corrode the flesh and is difficult to eradicate."
Sikong asked as he glanced at the three people. "This is the plan for this trip to Swamp Island. If there is no problem, we will set off immediately."
"Okay." Bai Mo nodded slightly.
So the group walked out of Zhongshan Post Station.
In just one day, Zhongshan City, which is closer to the seaside, has returned to its original appearance and is no longer as dilapidated as it was the day before.
The post station is located on a small hill in the center of the island, and it is also the only place on the entire island with lush vegetation.
The direction of the place had long been deserted due to the constant attacks of the Sirens and the continuous battles.
All the way west.
Standing not far from the beach, you can see the Zhongshan West Island opposite.
If you look at the water area separating the two islands, you can see groups of blue-ling evil monsters swimming through the sparkling water.
These catfish-like creatures have a pair of exceptionally sharp claws, and their dark blue scales come together to make the light blue sea even bluer.
However, through the water surface where there is no Blue Ling evil monster swimming, the seabed can be seen. Obviously, the waters between the two islands are not deep.
"I will lead the way, and you will be responsible for blocking the attacks of the Blue Ling Evil Demon."
As Sikong Wen spoke, the earth waves under his feet surged and he rushed forward with Ye Xing.
An ochre light flashed in his eyes, and when he was about to reach the surface of the water, the light instantly turned into lime. The vast petrifying power was under his control, constantly turning the water surface in front of him and the Lan Ling evil monster under the water into solid stone.
A floating stone bridge was cast, and Bai Mo and Ding Yumian followed closely behind. The petrification power did not solidify the water at the entire depth into stone. Once they passed by, the stone bridges would be shattered in anger, or directly broken and sank into the water.
Sensing that humans had intruded into their territory, the Blue Ling evil demons that had been receiving comfort from Ding Yumian became completely manic. They kept pouring in, jumping out of the water one by one, with a pair of sharp claws shining coldly stretched out, wanting to tear these humans to pieces.
"Retreat from the area!"
A silver stream of light suddenly flashed across, and a retreat area covering ten meters was quietly set up, enveloping several people.
Violent spatial fluctuations are maintained at the edge of the field, and all the blue-ling evil monsters that approach will be directly knocked away by the powerful repulsive force.
No attack can fall into this silver area without Bai Mo's permission.
The power of Sikong Wen's Rock Demon Eye could not support a distance of 600 meters. When it reached a distance of 200 meters, it was no longer able to sustain.
So the job of paving the road was given to Ye Xing. Ye Xing's ice magic was just a minor skill and was not very powerful. He didn't even have a spirit seed.
It can only form an ice path like a single-plank bridge, which will not last for a few seconds before being melted by sea water.
And Sikong Wen had no space to use ground waves on such an ice road, so the silver light in Bai Mo's eyes turned into light and misty clouds.
Wisps of pale white wind spread out, forming a wind field connecting to the opposite bank, carrying the three people forward without slowing down.
Therefore, the task of stopping those demons was given to Sikong Wen. He saw pieces of lightning scattered and spreading in the water in all directions.
With the blessing of his soul seed, even if it was just an initial stage thunder seal, the tremendous electric current it carried could turn a small area around everyone into an electric field.
The lightning with the effect of paralyzing the soul easily restrained these slave-level demons and cleared the obstacles for their progress.
Although there was no wind spirit, relying on the origin of the spiritual wind and his extremely proficient control of the wind system, Bai Mo quickly led the four of them to the other side.
There was a large group of blue demons on the beach, probably basking in the sun.
They had already noticed Bai Mo and his three companions who were flying towards them.
They had already chosen their destination and gathered around, waiting for the breakfast to land on their doorstep.
"Humph! How dare some little demons set their sights on us!"
A rebellious purple thunder appeared in Sikong Wen's eyes. He pointed towards the sky, and suddenly a dark cloud gathered, and countless dancing thunderbolts fell down with a rumble.
In a moment, a large group of blue-ling evil monsters below were turned into charred corpses. Taking advantage of the vacuum zone of monsters he had cleared, Bai Mo waved his hand.
A wide wind field spread out again, straight into the center of the island.
They stepped onto the land in an instant, and in the blink of an eye they escaped from the seashore and arrived deep in the island.
This is a flat and open area. Three-meter-high thatch-like plants form a sea of grass. Among these sky-blue thatches, tall tropical trees occasionally poke their heads out, but they can only poke their heads out.
When the sea breeze blew, it could only slightly shake the tall thatch, and the wind brought a faint strange fragrance.
As soon as it made contact, Bai Mo felt a fluctuation in the wind that was protecting his soul.
Sikong Wen and Ye Xing's eyes were dazed for two seconds before they recovered. If they walked into this sea of dark fragrant grass without protection, they would probably be bewitched by the dark fragrance of the soul in an instant and lose their minds.
“The wall of the mind!”
The star track of the mind system lit up in Ding Yumian's hand, and invisible waves swept through the minds of the three people, building a high wall of protection for them.
"Let's go."
Bai Mo said to the two people who had just come to their senses that with Ding Yumian, a master of the spiritual system, here, no matter how many of these dark fragrant herbs there are, the dark fragrance that confuses the mind is just a show of hands and is not worth a second glance.
Walking among these tall dark herbs, it was difficult to tell whether they were in a dense grass or a forest.
The area of these grass seas is actually not very large, but they are too tall and connected together, giving people the illusion that the grass seas are very wide.
After all, it only covers the center of a small island, how big can it be?
It took them a lot of effort to push aside the grass, but it didn't take too long to cross the grassland.
Behind the grassland is a sparsely wooded area.
Everyone walked towards a beach near the deserted rock island.
These beaches seemed to be the favorite homes of many amphibious sirens. The four people walking in the woods could see sirens on almost every beach.
On the contrary, there were not many monsters in the forest.
When they approached the beach close to the Deserted Stone Island, they were immediately discovered by a group of water beasts that lived there. They had huge bellies, sturdy legs, heads and necks as thick as bodies bigger than millstones, and purple-black skin that looked like polished cement.
As they walked, a sound like beating drums was heard. Gradually, the thunderous drum sounds in the chests and abdomens of all the drum-beating water beasts became one and turned into an even louder thunder.
The rumbling thunder rushed into everyone's spiritual world with rolling momentum, like a dragon stirring up trouble in the sea!
It keeps churning in the spiritual world, disrupting everyone's magic.
At the same time, the drum-beating water beasts that were rushing over with the rolling sand waves opened their huge mouths and suddenly spurted out muddy water cannons with the force to break mountains and split rocks. They formed a water cannon array and shot at everyone.
Once hit, my internal organs would probably be shattered into pieces by the strong impact force!
