Chapter 52 Claw Marks

Chapter 52 Claw Marks

PS: Allow me to shamelessly ask for votes!

The instantaneous change of scenes made Mike's heart beat wildly. With a thought, the blackthorn wood wand hidden in his sleeve appeared in his hand.

"Armor protect!"

The newly learned protective spell was released. With this layer of invisible armor on his body, Mike finally had some confidence and began to observe his own situation.

Everywhere he looked was a pale blue light. Since there was no reference, Mike could not tell the east, west, south, and north at all.

Suddenly, in the sea of ​​light, a dead tree that was more than ten meters high and required two people to hug appeared not far from Mike. The branches of the dead tree were full of ravens, and they were all staring at Mike below. The raven at the highest point was particularly large, and Mike recognized it at a glance as the sculpture.

Now it no longer looked like a sculpture. There was a cold light in its dark brown pupils. It twisted its neck flexibly and looked at Mike with its eyes on both sides of its head.

This strange scene put a lot of pressure on Mike. He instinctively waved his magic wand and put on another layer of armor.

Unexpectedly, this action seemed to anger the largest raven. It suddenly spread its wings and made a hoarse and unpleasant cry towards Mike. This was like a signal. The other ravens on the dead tree all flapped their wings and flew towards Mike like arrows.

Looking at the crows rushing towards him like a dark cloud, Mike couldn't help but feel scared. He raised his

magic wand high, and the blazing white flames shot up into the sky.

The expected scene of the flames engulfing the crows did not appear. These ravens rushed out of the blazing white flames one after another as if they had no entity, ignoring the two layers of armor and continuing to attack Mike.

The first raven quickly hit Mike. Strangely, the raven turned into a wisp of black smoke and drilled into Mike's body.

As the wisp of black smoke drilled into Mike, Mike felt that the magic power in his body began to become difficult to control, and the fire spell he was releasing could no longer be maintained.

And this was just the beginning.

One after another, the ravens turned into black smoke and drilled into Mike's body. Soon, Mike's whole body was shrouded in a thick black.

At first, the magic power in his body could be forcibly suppressed by mental power, but as time passed, the magic power soon boiled up like boiling water.

The rampage of magic power brought Mike severe pain that ordinary people could not bear. After a while, Mike's consciousness began to become blurred, and he was about to pass out.

At this moment, Mike's chest came with a piercing coldness that rushed straight to his brain, forcibly pulling his consciousness back from the edge of coma.

As we all know, coma is a protective mechanism of the body, but under the effect of that cold breath, Mike's protective mechanism failed.

So, Mike finally understood what it meant to live a life worse than death.

Every inch of his body was feeling the same pain as being bitten by a bullet ant, but his consciousness was extremely clear. What

Mike didn't know was that at this moment, the greed pendant on his chest was emitting a dazzling blue light, and the black air on his body surface quickly faded and disappeared under the illumination of this blue light.

The giant raven on the top of the dead tree saw the whole scene, and a very human-like surprise flashed in its eyes.

Mike found that his limbs had lost consciousness, and a numb feeling was spreading from his limbs to his torso. He immediately realized that he could not sit still and wait for death. If this continued, he might die here today. Damn old man Carter, didn't you say that the test would not be dangerous?

Mike endured the severe pain and began to try to control the magic power in his body. The cold breath saw Mike start to shrink his mental power and seemed to have a sense and actively attached to Mike's mental power.

The mental power attached with this cold breath seemed to have the effect of cooling the magic power. The originally unruly magic power actually began to calm down after being swept by it, and Mike's limbs were slowly regaining consciousness.

I don't know how long it took, the magic power became soft again, and the cold breath attached to the mental power was also consumed. Without the refreshing effect of the cold breath, Mike only felt that his consciousness began to become confused.

Indistinctly, I could only hear the familiar cry, and a huge bird claw quickly enlarged in the blurred vision, and then I felt a burning pain on my face.

"Ah!"

Mike covered his face and screamed, and finally fainted.

When he opened his eyes again, he saw four old faces looking down at him. Mike instinctively punched, and one of them screamed and fell backwards.

Hearing the scream, Mike realized that he seemed to have escaped from the sea of ​​light. He sat up and felt his face, but it was smooth without any scars.

"What happened to your face?" Professor Flitwick asked strangely.

"Just now I saw a giant raven scratch my face!"

"It's okay, the damage you suffered in the test was not real, it was just an illusion created by the raven statue." Carter stroked his goatee and said with a smile, "Congratulations, you passed the test."

"What? I passed? How did I pass?" Mike was confused.

"You passed the illusion when the raven statue pulled you into it. Only those with outstanding talents can trigger the raven statue. The illusion you entered is more like a reward. The longer you stay in it, the greater the benefits you get." Mario, who was hit in the left eye by Mike, climbed up, "I have to say, you are quite strong."

"Yes, feel it carefully. Your magic capacity and mental strength should have increased." Carter added, "In addition, the meditation method should have been imprinted in your head. This is the benefit of the raven statue for underage wizards."

Mike turned on his magic perception and found that his perception range had increased by nearly three times, and his magic capacity and magic control had also increased significantly. Not only that, paragraphs of profound and difficult to understand text began to emerge in his mind.

Mike didn't recognize these words at all, but they seemed to carry a magical power. As soon as Mike focused his attention on them, he fell into a deep state of meditation.

Not long after entering, Mike was awakened by a severe headache.

This state of meditation consumes a lot of mental energy. In addition, Mike had already consumed a lot of mental energy in the illusion before, so it is not surprising that he is overdrawn at this moment.

"It seems that our drinking party will be postponed. Filius, you should take this kid back to rest. His mental energy is overdrawn." Mario said helplessly to Flitwick, "Next time you will definitely not be able to escape."

"Don't worry, I will definitely accompany you to get drunk next time."

Professor Flitwick hurried forward to help Mike walk out of the hut. The space restriction was released here, and the apparition could not be used.

Mike did not lose consciousness. Compared with the time in the Forbidden Forest, the mental overdraft this time was nothing.

The two walked out of the hut quickly. The small animals that had gathered around the hut and played around saw Flitwick and Mike as if they saw something scary and ran away.

Flitwick felt strange in his heart, but he didn't care. The most urgent thing now was to settle Mike as soon as possible. What

they didn't know was that on a tree not far from the hut, a raven did not run away like other animals, but instead stared at Mike curiously.

In its field of vision, there was a huge claw mark on Mike's left face, which was emitting a deep blue light.
