"It's a pity that it wasn't sent by the devil, it's just a group of cultists. ”

Cervantes threw himself on the couch, face down, lazily lying on his stomach, and now he was tired of even talking.

It was as if he had used up all his energy in the previous battle, and he had overdrawn some of his energy in the future, and he had been like this for the last few days, and even the maid couldn't stand it.

"Really?"

Unexpectedly, and reasonably, the maid put down the pen and looked at the black dragon.

"Seth, I need you to do something right now. ”

Hearing this, Cervantes turned his head slightly and asked weakly, "What's the matter?"

The maid said lightly: "Go around the Black Forest, investigate the information, and by the way, bring it back if there is anything valuable." ”

The black dragon frowned, propped up his hands, sat up from the sofa, and asked in a deep voice, "Is something happening?"

"Recently, the concentration of magic essence around the Great Wall has risen rapidly, and although there are no reports yet, I think something must happen......" The maid raised her hand and nodded her head, "It's just intuition, but you can't take it lightly!"

Cervantes immediately nodded in agreement, "Okay, go now?"

"Go now, even if you don't go now, you'll have to go there for a walk in a while. The maid sighed slightly, "There have been a lot of things lately, otherwise, maybe I will put down my government affairs and go with you." ”

Is the situation that serious?

Cervantes tilted his head and thought about it, he hadn't seen any documents from the Great Wall lately, but if it was really serious enough, Sera would have let himself go to the border a long time ago.

"By the way, you go through the portal, go back quickly!" Before Cervantes left, the maid advised: "Whatever you see, don't face it alone, now that the artillery of the principality has developed, if you encounter something that makes you feel troublesome, it is best to lead it to the vicinity of the Great Wall and gather the strength of the army to deal with it." ”

Serena knew very well that if she didn't tell the black dragon like that, maybe he would really be alone to face the powerful enemies who came out of the depths of the Black Forest.

Although she also knew that those monsters would not be able to defeat Cervantes, but now they had to prepare for the onslaught of the arrival of the demon tide, and Cervantes, as a major combat force of the principality, could become much more troublesome if he suffered an injury that was difficult to heal.

Cervantes waved his hand, didn't say anything, and jumped out of the window...... Now the maid is too lazy to talk about him.

............

Walking through the dense Black Forest, Cervantes looked left and right from time to time.

He didn't release Long Wei, but the surrounding environment was also smelly of falling pins, and it was extremely quiet.

When did this begin?

He pondered for a moment, remembered a little, and calculated the time, probably a few hours ago!

"On April 5th, an anomaly was discovered in the Black Forest—"

After a pause, Cervantes leaned against a large tree and whispered, "For unknown reasons, all the animals in the surrounding area have disappeared, and I seem to have walked into the hunting grounds of a monster...... But that's not the case. ”

After marking the event log on the map, Cervantes looked up, "I'm going to continue exploring, [to be edited]." ”

It's too weird, according to the theory of the mages, when the magic tide gradually rises, monsters and monsters will multiply in large numbers due to changes in the magic environment, even if it will squeeze the living environment of other life, but they will still continue to reproduce.

This is the main reason why these monsters and monsters that live in the Black Forest will go out of the Black Forest and attack the surrounding settlements.

It's not that monsters and monsters hate humans, it's just that they also need to survive, but constant reproduction will not only squeeze the living environment of other life, but also make them suffer themselves.

The lack of food is only the most basic change, and the most important thing is that there will be conflicts between powerful monsters and powerful monsters, and the monster herds will hunt each other with the monster herds, and the loser will definitely leave if he can survive.

However, the inward direction of the Black Forest is all occupied by more powerful monsters and monsters, and they can only choose to flee outward, which will cause a series of events.

When the tide comes, herbivores, carnivores, and omnivores can all get enough food, but why is there still a 'lack of food'?

In the final analysis, the reason is still the 'mass multiplication' - not just a single race, even the Silver Dragon Clan in Wende City has caused some commotion due to the arrival of the Demon Tide.

No race can escape the influence of the Demon Tide, and it is not only the Demon Beasts that have a great desire to reproduce due to changes in the magical environment, but also all animals, even plants.

Cervantes didn't sense any powerful life in the surrounding area, and even if there were, it couldn't have caused this - all the plants were still flourishing, but there was no sign of any animals.

Herbivores and carnivores, birds and animals, and even insects have disappeared completely.

He was now very sure that he was not caught in any circumstances, and the magic glasses he was wearing now had the ability to [break illusion], so it was not an illusion.

There were no auditory hallucinations, no visual hallucinations, and there was no discernible breath around, the trees did not wither, and the breath of life permeated the woods...... So what the hell is going on?

Cervantes chose to move on, the scanning function of his glasses constantly scanning his surroundings, but he saw nothing but plants.

There were no earthworms or other insect carcasses in the land, and he found only the roots of the plants planted deep in them.

After walking for a while, Cervantes stopped, lowered his head, and looked at the ground beneath his feet.

It's not that there are no living creatures here, to be exact, the woods themselves are living creatures!

He suddenly remembered the six-armed giant he and Ziegler had met in the Black Forest, which was also an experiment of the Arcane Empire, and was quite powerful enough to rival the average legend.

The giant's body was so large that it was taller than a mountain when it sits, and when it stood up, it could even break a mountain into pieces, using the fragments of the mountain as a throwing weapon.

Later, he discussed it with Ziegler, and although he didn't like the red dragon quite a bit, the red dragon did know a lot about the Arcane Empire.

Ziegler believed that the six-armed giant was not the largest of the Arcanist experiments.

In fact, he had found a rather large Arcane Empire ruin elsewhere on the continent, which had long since been emptied by organizations such as the Dragon Hunter Order or the Eye of All-Knowing, but in that ruin, there were several large cultivation pools for the kind of experiments that were used to dispense the experiments.

Almost every one of those pools was the size of a village, and by then, the ruins had partially collapsed, so Ziegler couldn't find anything more.

Now Cervantes could be sure that the Arcane Empire did indeed have much larger experiments, otherwise how could he explain the woods beneath his feet?

With his feet, he couldn't leave the woods for hours, and even found the core of the monster.

Not far from where he was now, he found something that was probably like a 'node', and the powerful breath of life was hidden, but it was still detected by him.

To be exact, it should be the pair of glasses he was wearing!

The identities of 'Experiment of the Arcane Empire' and 'Monster of the Inland Sea' were not in conflict, but even he had a hard time imagining how large this monster could be.
