Chapter 328: The Sickly Illegitimate Daughter Who Everyone Dislikes vs. the Elegant and Crazy Housekeeper (23)
Near noon, Lu Cha and others arrived at the Death Forest.
Hoorn stopped the team outside the forest and did not move forward.
Lu Cha got off the carriage and was hit by a gust of cold wind.
She couldn't help but wrap her cloak tighter around her.
The little villain’s “home” is so cold.
"For the sake of fairness, this assessment will be conducted by drawing lots."
Hoorn motioned to Argus, took out the copper kettle he had prepared, and began to explain the rules: "There are ten sticks in here."
"Each stick is marked with a number, representing the corresponding area of the Forest of Death."
"You must use light magic to purify the dead energy in the area."
"Whoever has the least amount of dead energy left will be the winner."
"The concentration of dead energy in each area is different. It all depends on your luck."
"The assessment time is two hours. Anyone who dies or fails to return to the assembly area within the time limit will be considered eliminated."
"You may bring in slaves to care for you, but the knights must remain outside."
After saying this, Hoorn ordered Agus to draw lots for the noble ladies.
Ya Ge deliberately avoided Lu Cha and waited until everyone else had finished smoking before walking up to her:
"You don't have to smoke anymore. The remaining one is yours."
He tampered with the wooden stick just to leave area No. 4, which had the most dead air, for An Lucha.
There are many dangerous monsters in the Death Forest, and he secretly arranged a small team of knights to assassinate them.
He just didn't believe that Anlucha could survive this time!
Sensing the murderous intent revealed by Agus, Lucha took the wooden stick with the number "4" written on it without paying any attention.
Don't panic! The Dark God is by her side!
Seeing that everyone had divided up their areas, Kelun spoke loudly, "The timer has begun. Please enter the Death Forest on foot."
"May the God of Light bless you."
Before leaving, Lucha took out a handful of magic jewelry from his pocket and stuffed it into Nalisa's pocket:
"If you wear all of these, they will not only protect you, but also help purify you of the deadly aura."
"Oh yeah, I also cast a spell on this kettle."
Nalisa's arms were soon filled with various items by Lu Cha.
Seeing that there were magic candies among them, Narissa didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but her heart felt warm:
"You gave them all to me, so what are you going to do?"
Lu Cha blinked, and instantly cast light magic on the wooden stick in his hand:
“I can do it again.”
Narissa was rarely silent.
She forgot that Cha Cha is a genius.
After separating from Narissa, Lucha and Xizel walked into the Forest of Death.
The forest was not as dark and damp as imagined. On the contrary, it was full of green trees and wild flowers.
It looked beautiful, like a paradise on earth, but it was eerily quiet, and even the rustling of leaves in the wind could not be heard.
It's like stepping into a dead place.
Lu Cha couldn't help but raise his head.
There was a light black mist in the sky.
The black fog is what Colen calls the death air.
The bright sunlight, shining sparsely through the black fog, should have made people feel warm, but the light falling on the body was chilling to the bone.
There was also a strange sour smell in the air, like the smell of rotting meat.
Seeing a centipede about as thick as a baby's arm crawling in the grass next to him, Lu Cha quickly took a few steps.
If she accidentally stepped on a centipede and burst it, her new shoes would be dirty!
Since arriving in the Forest of Death, Xizel has rarely spoken and has been following Lu Cha quietly.
There was always a standard smile on his handsome face, as if it was a mask he had put on.
But at this moment, Xizel keenly noticed that someone was approaching.
He gently hooked his drooping fingers.
Several knights who were traveling through the woods and trying to launch a sneak attack on Lu Cha were instantly surrounded by black mist. They didn't even have time to scream before they were completely swallowed up.
While struggling, one knight accidentally broke a branch nearby.
Lu Cha, who suddenly heard the sound, turned his head curiously.
Xizel blocked Lucha's sight in time and picked her up skillfully:
"Miss An, it seems like a monster is coming. I'll carry you and run faster."
Lu Cha poked his little head out suspiciously.
Behind Xizel there was nothing but trees and wildflowers, not to mention any trace of magical beasts.
Ugh~
Little liar!
-
Following the signposts on the road, Xizel carried Lu Cha to Area 4 and put her down.
Unlike the beautiful scenery that Lu Cha had just seen, the atmosphere here was gloomy and the thick black fog almost covered everything, making it impossible to see the surrounding environment clearly, which made people feel depressed and uncomfortable.
The male protagonist really left a "good place" for her.
Lu Cha condensed golden light in disgust, groped carefully, and entered the black fog.
Because the light element was scarce in the Death Forest, she had to set up a light magic circle to purify it.
Standing at the edge waiting, Xizel quietly controlled the dark element and headed deeper into the forest.
The reason why no magician dares to step into the Forest of Death at will is because of this.
It's not just because the forest is full of dangers, but more importantly, there is a mythical beast here that can weave dreams.
It will release the fear hidden deep in people's hearts, expand it infinitely, and make them sink.
In the end, he was frightened to death and became food for the fantasy beast.
But as long as it is controlled properly, the fantasy beast can be used to hypnotize people who are trapped in dreams and make them their obedient puppets.
He wants to hypnotize Miss An and kill the God of Light.
A gleam of excitement flickered in César's deep eyes.
-
Lu Cha was in the black fog and was about to finish setting up the magic circle when he suddenly heard a sharp cry, like the chirping of cicadas in summer.
She felt a little irritated for no reason, and her head also felt an unexplained swelling.
Lu Cha's eyes dimmed slightly, and immediately turned into a more dazzling golden light, but in the next moment, he froze in place as if his soul had been sucked out.
The black fog surrounding her drifted to both sides at the same time, forming a path.
Cesar came over slowly.
Looking at the girl's empty and dull eyes, which were obviously controlled by the phantom beast, he gently stroked her pretty face:
"Miss An, can you meet any of my requests?"
