Chapter 178: An Old Friend

It was night, in a forest on the outskirts of Cavalim.

In order to dispose of the bodies infected with the plague, Cavalim City had specially dug a large pit in the forest on the outskirts. The people who died from the plague were carried here and then agreed to be buried afterward.

Da da da… The sound of footsteps echoed in the forest.

Two men who were in charge of handling the corpses were carrying a stretcher in the forest. On the stretcher was a civilian who had just died from the plague.

They looked terrified and kept looking left and right.

Soon, the two of them arrived at the burial pit.

It was a huge pit with a radius of hundreds of square meters. In the huge pit, there were corpses lying in all directions. Their pale faces and dead eyes were extremely terrifying under the moonlight.

“Gulp!”

The two men could not help but shiver and swallow their saliva.

“Ya! Ya!” Suddenly, two dry screeches sounded.

A crow flew over and hovered on a treetop. At this time, it was tilting its head and looking at the two people under the tree with its scarlet eyes.

The sudden sound startled the two civilians. Their bodies trembled and the corpses on the stretcher slid into the huge pit.

“D… d*mn it, d*mn bird! You scared me!”

“F*ck off!”

A man picked up a stone and threw it at the treetop. The crow miraculously moved to the side to avoid it.

“Eh? You… look, what… What is that?” At this moment, a man seemed to have noticed something and suddenly pointed at the trembling corpse in the pit.

The corpse that they had just thrown down suddenly opened its mouth for no reason.

“Ah!”

“F*ck… F*ck…”

The men’s expressions changed drastically as they screamed and quickly ran away.

Not long after the two of them left.

Rustle, rustle… A strange sound was heard.

A dense swarm of insects suddenly surged out from the man’s open mouth. The scene was extremely terrifying.

The insects that emerged were very strange. They looked like earthworms, but at the top was a strange creature with sharp teeth and claws.

After coming out of the man’s mouth, they gathered on the man’s body, as if waiting for something.

The crow on the tree stared at the scene on the ground without blinking.

This crow was naturally Heath.

Since the unknown plague disperser had chosen to use humans to nurture the Acter Abyss Worm, as long as he kept an eye on the Acter Abyss Worm’s location, he would naturally be able to uncover the mastermind behind it.

Thus, Heath specially arranged for someone to find a corpse that had just died and send it over. He then followed closely behind and used the transformation spell to transform into a crow.

Ding ling… Suddenly, a clear sound rang out. It was the sound of a bell.

Ding ling!

Suddenly, a figure appeared outside the forest.

It was a woman. She was wrapped in a black cloak. Her appearance was quite beautiful, but the palms of her hands had two mouths. She looked extremely strange.

Seeing this woman, Heath could not help but be stunned.

He had seen this woman before. It was when he had just left Shadow Tower ten years ago. She was one of the three Dark Wizard Apprentices.

She was holding a bell in her hand. As she gently shook it, she walked toward the pit.

The bell seemed to have some strange magic power. After hearing the sound, the insects in the pit climbed out of the pit together and swarmed toward the Witch.

The Witch squatted down and pressed her palm against the ground. Her long scarlet tongue stuck out and licked the surroundings.

Crunch, crunch… The crisp sound of chewing was heard continuously.

As if enjoying some kind of delicious food, the mouth began to devour these insects.

“Oh…”

At the same time, the Witch seemed to enjoy a feast of gluttony. She was murmuring uncontrollably as if she was having an orgasm.

Green gas emerged from her body and twirled around her body. It looked unusually strange.

Heath, who was on the treetops, suddenly understood.

‘So that’s how it is. Is this some kind of special training method?’

Using humans to rear Acter Abyss Worms and then devouring Acter Abyss Worms to absorb the elemental content of the worms after they multiplied in large numbers was a good way to quickly increase one’s strength.

‘I just don’t know how she deals with the problem of elemental rejection?’

‘Let’s capture her and ask her.’

With this thought in mind, Heath was ready to show himself and take down the culprit.

But at this moment, he suddenly looked to the side of the forest.

Just now, he suddenly felt several slight elemental fluctuations coming from that side, and these elemental fluctuations…

Seemed to be a little familiar?

The Witch under the tree had the strength of an advanced Apprentice ten years ago, and now she had already reached the peak, and her spiritual sense was also very strong.

After Heath, she quickly noticed the elemental fluctuations.

She immediately stopped devouring the Acter Abyss Worms and suddenly stood up, looking over vigilantly. “Who is it? Come out!”

The forest was quiet for a while…

Then…

Rustle…

The bushes shook, and a few figures walked out from there.

There were two men and two women who walked out. They were all wearing gray-black Apprentice cloaks, and the chest of the cloaks was embroidered with the pattern of Shadow Tower. They were all Apprentices of Shadow Tower.

After seeing these people, Heath finally knew where the familiar feeling came from.

Jessica, Jenny, Ender, and Ike.

These four people were obviously Apprentices who were at the same time as him!

After ten years of not seeing each other, it was obvious that everyone had made great progress. Judging from the spiritual power that they had received, Jenny, Ender, and Ike had already reached the intermediate Apprentice stage, and Jessica even had the spiritual fluctuation of an advanced Apprentice.

As soon as the four of them walked out of the forest, they surrounded the Witch in front of them in an umbrella-shaped formation.

The Witch glanced at the four of them and asked with suspicion, “Shadow Tower?”

She sneered and said scornfully, “Why did you stray dogs come here instead of lying in the shadows?”

The faces of the four of them darkened.

Jenny was the first to step out and said coldly, “Filthy maggot of the Dark Wizard Region, did you attack Parker?”

The Witch thought for a moment and said, “Parker… are you talking about the boy with a big head who can transform into a werewolf?”

She raised her thumb and pursed her lips as if she was provoking the Witch. “He tasted good!”

The four of them suddenly had red eyes!

Parker was one of their Apprentices. They had been playing together since they entered Shadow Tower. They had been together for a long time, and they had a good relationship.

“Then pay with your life!”

Jessica snorted angrily and didn’t waste any words. She immediately used a flame to burn the Witch.

At the same time, Jenny, who was next to her, also took the opportunity to summon a tornado. Wind and fire came together. When the tornado was covered with flames, it immediately formed a flaming tornado, which greatly increased its power.

The rest of the Apprentices, Andrew and Ike, respectively, summoned a thorn and a chain to entangle the Witch, trapping her so that she couldn’t move.

Heath’s eyes lit up when he saw this scene.

In his impression, these four guys were just noobs, but now they were well-coordinated and well-organized, which surprised him greatly.

Unfortunately, they were just noobs.

Facing the four’s attack, the Witch snorted and said disdainfully, “You’re courting death!”

As she spoke, she raised her right hand, and a barrier formed by water elements stood in front of her. The fire tornado collided with it with a loud bang, and then instantly collapsed.

At the same time, a large amount of dark green fog suddenly surged out of her body. This fog seemed to be extremely corrosive. The moment it came into contact with the chains and thorns wrapped around her body, they heard a ‘puchi puchi’ sound, these chains and thorns instantly melted like black candles.

The Witch who had escaped from control suddenly raised her hands, and a large amount of poisonous fog immediately gushed out from her palms and enveloped the few of them.

Seeing this, Jessica hurriedly stepped forward and raised her hands up. A flame shield appeared and enveloped the few of them.

However, her flame shield was no match for the poisonous fog. As soon as the poisonous fog hit it, there was a ‘puchi puchi’ sound, and the shield melted at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Jessica’s expression changed and she quickly said, “Everyone, retreat!”

The Apprentices did not waste any time and quickly retreated.

“Hmph! Hah, you want to run?”

The Witch sneered and then raised her hand toward Jessica, who was retreating slowly. Suddenly, the ground bulged up and a spike shot up from below.

Everyone was shocked.

“Jessica!”

“Be careful!”

Jessica was in a situation where the protective shield was broken. She could not defend against the spike at all and was about to be penetrated by it.

But at this moment.

Bang!

For no reason, the spikes suddenly ignited into a ball of flame. The power of this flame was extremely shocking. As soon as it appeared, it burned with the spikes and instantly burned the spikes into ashes.

Jessica, who had avoided it, broke out in a cold sweat. She looked at the burning flame in front of her, still in shock.

Everyone quickly surrounded her and protected her.

“Jessica, are you okay?”

“I’m fine…”

At the same time, the Witch’s face suddenly became serious. She suddenly looked at the tree trunk and stared at the crow on the tree trunk with a cold expression.

She said coldly, “Who are you? I advise you to mind your own business! Otherwise, you won’t even know how you died!”

A leisurely voice came from the tree, “So what if I do?”

Hearing this voice, Jessica was slightly stunned. She inexplicably felt that this voice seemed to be somewhat familiar.

The Witch was furious, “You’re courting death!”

She released a large amount of poisonous fog from her hands and gathered towards the crow on the tree. This dark green poisonous fog was like water, touching the tree trunk. The tree actually melted in the blink of an eye.

However, the crow seemed to be completely unharmed in the depths of the poisonous fog.

The Witch’s expression became serious.

Flap, flap, flap! The sound of wings flapping could be heard.

The crow flapped its wings and flew down from the tree trunk. During the process of falling, the crow began to twist, transform, and expand.

A small crow quickly elongated and grew.

By the time the crow landed, it had already transformed into a slender man with a black cloak hanging from his waist in the night wind.

At the same time, the faces of the Witch, Jessica, and the others, changed at the same time.

This was because this man seemed to be releasing an extremely powerful energy wave that belonged only to —

Wizards!
