According to Su Ziyu's judgment, this kind of monster should have a high probability of dropping source power.
So he decided to take on the druid's mission.
From Fantsin, he learned that the druids in this world also mastered some spells, but they were far inferior to the sorceresses. They were more proficient in herbology and alchemy.
Druids are more like spiritual mentors and wise men, thinking about some philosophical issues about the relationship between people and nature.
It is said that powerful druids can stop storms, cause hail, and summon lightning, but Fantesin has never seen such a person. Most druids are herbal masters who occasionally use spells to control plants and appease animals.
In the Southern Islands, locals would seek help from druids to treat injuries and mediate disputes. People there were very hostile to warlocks, but they respected druids very much.
Fantsin once saw a druid praying for rain in a drought-stricken area.
By the campfire.
Just as Su Ziyu was packing up and getting ready to leave, Ms. Judy appeared beside him. She sat on Su Ziyu's right and said softly, "I'll go too."
The sorceress had changed her clothes, wearing a dark red tights, a belt, and riding boots.
Su Ziyu's eyes were attracted by her proud figure for a moment, and then he said simply: "Okay. Get ready, we'll leave right away."
Don't worry about the safety of the campsite.
With Lady Enid here, and so many sorceresses, just preparing some spells and traps will be enough to give the enemy a hard time.
Anti-magic metals are mainly produced from a mountain range in the southern continent. There are not so many things that can restrain them in the northern continent.
The demon-blocking gold bomb is firmly in the hands of the church.
Tonight.
Melissa looked very excited. She rode her horse behind Suziyu and Fantsin, with Edson and Ms. Judy beside her.
This druid is familiar with the wilderness.
About two hours later, they arrived near a dark forest.
Along the way.
Fantsin is explaining the characteristics of this monster to Melissa, which is an ability that Su Ziyu does not possess. He can only teach Melissa how to fight.
"There are three kinds of thorny magic trees."
"One is brown-red, and that's the easiest to deal with."
"The other two are dark green and dark purple. The former may be where a massacre took place, while the latter must have been where a blood sacrifice took place."
“They are very afraid of fire.”
"Most plant-based monsters can be dealt with by fire." Fantsin explained in detail along the way, because monster hunters are experts in dealing with monsters.
There was a strange smell of decay in the forest.
No animals to be seen.
I don’t know if they were all eaten by the thorny magic tree.
This monster is a cursed creature. It looks like a huge Piranha plant. Although it is a plant, it can move and burrow into the ground. There are many sharp teeth inside the petals, which can spit out venom and acid.
They are easy to deal with for experienced demon hunters, but not so friendly to novices.
"It's just ahead." Fantsin suddenly stopped and said.
After saying.
He and Su Ziyu exchanged a glance, then took a few steps back, letting Melissa and Ms. Judy next to them walk ahead.
Melissa looked a little nervous.
At this time, Fantsin's voice sounded: "Listen carefully. Use the perception of a demon hunter. The smell of a demon is easy to identify."
Su Ziyu noticed some unusual movement, but did not warn anyone. He just put his hand on the hilt of Meteorite's sword.
Both men were a little nervous.
Maybe she was a little more nervous than Melissa who was walking in front, because they both had their hands on the hilts of their swords.
Crash!
A bloody mouth suddenly appeared in the darkness. The dark purple jaw-like leaves were covered with sharp teeth and bit directly at Melissa's white neck.
"Be careful!" Judy screamed. A cold light flashed.
Melissa swung her sword instantly. The leaves and flowers of the thorny magic tree were very tough, and dark red blood flowed out after the silver sword passed through them. The blood dripped onto the ground, making a slight sizzling sound, and seemed to be highly corrosive.
"Contamination found."
"Issuing a mission: Clear the thorny demon tree."
"Mission Reward: Authority Level Upgrade!"
A ball of fire appeared in Ms. Judy's palm, and then a tongue of fire fell on the thorn tree, which trembled violently and shrank back into the darkness.
The sorceress looked very nervous.
She probably had never experienced any battles before, and her good background allowed her to avoid most dangers.
"I found you!" Melissa raised her hand and cast a seal, throwing out a bottle of alchemical kerosene.
boom.
The flames rising from the explosion were more powerful than Judy's spells. In the firelight, a monster entangled like vines appeared in front of her eyes. Its body was a bit like an old tree with dead vines, about five or six meters tall, with a dark purple surface and some entangled vines. The top was like an open carnivorous plant, covered with many sharp teeth.
It moves, but not quickly.
Under the burning flames, the body of the Thorn Demon Tree suddenly squirmed, and then a stream of dark purple liquid was sprayed out from its mouthparts.
Sizzle.
Melissa reacted quickly, rolling in an instant to avoid the venom spewed by the monster, and then leaped onto the treetops like a cat. She was very fast and had excellent balance. She quickly rushed to the treetops and stabbed down with her sword.
Ms. Judy is chanting a spell.
She also found that the initial attack was ineffective, and was now preparing more powerful spells.
boom!
Melissa threw out another bottle of alchemical kerosene.
The blazing fire engulfed the thorny demon tree. The kerosene on its body continued to burn. The monster twisted its body wildly and gradually became weaker.
At this time a fireball flew over.
With a violent explosion, the body of the thorny demon tree was directly shattered.
“Mission accomplished!”
"Authorization level increased!"
"Gain 2 points of source power!"
Su Ziyu walked over and touched the monster's body. Next to him was Melissa, who looked a little excited, and Ms. Judy, whose chest was heaving with excitement.
They killed the monster.
Both women were very excited, especially Melissa, who looked like she was begging for praise and compliments, which was even more hilarious.

But.
At this time, Fantsin came over. He frowned and looked at the monster's body that had been blown to pieces. He slowly said, "Congratulations on completing this commission."
"But it seems that the alchemical materials on this monster are unusable."
"Adding the two bottles of alchemical fire oil and one bottle of cursed sword oil you just used, you lost at least six gold galleons on this mission!"
Melissa, who was originally very happy, suddenly froze in place.
Then her expression was like this.
∑(°Д°ノ)ノ
Very good and realistic.
Fantsin taught Melissa a very vivid lesson, that is, a witcher cannot lose money while working.
