Chapter 405 Weeping Forest
"He killed his father!"
"Father!"
"Killed!"
As the mad wizard was killed by the meteorite, a sharp sound suddenly came from the surroundings, and the scarecrows swayed from side to side, conveying panic.
"Noisy!" Enzo frowned.
The mental power turned into silver ripples again and spread around. The scarecrows screamed and the innocent souls attached to them turned into ashes.
In place, Enzo raised his head.
All the scarecrows around him had been eliminated, and in the deep pit ahead, the mad wizard was crushed to pieces by the meteorite. It was obvious that he was too dead to die anymore.
"The Crow of Killing!"
Enzo whispered, summoning Hirsch, and the killing crow bloomed in the palm of his hand, seeming to feel the power of divinity, making it fly out impatiently.
In the crater, a dark luster shone!
With the death of the mad wizard, the killing mark in his body turned into pure divinity again, floating quietly in the air like a dim light.
Hirsch did not hesitate and opened his mouth to swallow the ghost!
The mutual predatory nature of the gods made the Killing Crow's body become more powerful after devouring the ghost light, and its originally palm-sized body became significantly larger.
Immediately afterwards, Hirsch's whole body twisted.
In a moment, it transformed into a little boy wearing black attire, with a serious expression on his face, but with his childish face, it created a contrast that made people want to pinch it.
"You did well, servant!"
On the spot, Hirsch looked majestic and said in a deep voice: "Every time I collect a piece of divinity, my power will be restored by one point. As my slave, when I rekindle the divine fire, I will definitely give you a reward!"
Enzo chuckled, stepped forward, and pinched Hirsch's cheek unceremoniously. The other party immediately resisted extremely and struggled desperately.
"Stop it, you damn slave!"
Hirsch's young cheeks were repeatedly pinched by a pair of big hands, and he protested angrily, saying, "I am the god in charge of killing, you can't do this to me."
Enzo ignored it and continued to knead.
After a moment, he stopped and looked at Hershey, whose eyes were on fire. Enzo chuckled and shook his head, saying, "If you don't want to continue having your face rubbed by me, you'd better put away this expression."
Hirsch was startled and quickly lowered his head.
"That's right!" Enzo smiled with satisfaction.
Hirsch, the Crow of Killing, was born based on the power of the God of Killing, so he inherited part of the memory of the God of Killing. As a god, he was aloof, but Enzo had no intention of spoiling him.
Although Hirsch was born from divinity, his essence is also integrated with the power of the Phantom Crow. In a sense, Enzo can be regarded as its creator. Even if the other party ignites the divine fire in the future and becomes a real god, he will never Possibly free from Enzo's control.
"Hmph! Sooner or later, I'm going to let you see how powerful I am!" Hirsch lowered his head, but his eyes flashed with anger.
Later, it transformed into the Killing Crow and returned to Enzo's body.
Enzo chuckled and shook his head.
As the creator of the Killing Crow, Enzo can feel Hirsch's emotions. After absorbing the killing divinity from the mad wizard, it becomes stronger and has more abilities.
"Next, let's continue!"
On the spot, Enzo slowly closed his eyes, and using the enhanced perception ability after the Killing Crow absorbed the divinity of the mad wizard, he began to look for the location of other divinities.
"Weeping Forest..."
After a while, Enzo opened his eyes, his eyes shining slightly.
The divinities of Killing have the characteristic of devouring each other, so every Son of Killing is eager to get more divinity to enhance their strength, and the same is true for Enzo, who created the Crow of Killing.
The more divinity the Kill Crow absorbs, the more power Enzo gains.
"Chip, retrieve my body data!"
"Enzo/Strength: 25/Physique: 24.5/Spirit: 27/Level: Second-level Wizard/Status: Good."
The data panel appeared in front of him, Enzo stroked his chin, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face. Relying on the power of the Crow of Killing, Enzo's power can be improved by killing or plundering divinity. Now he has entered the second-level wizard elite level. .
"Perhaps by devouring another piece of divinity, my power can reach the limit of the second-level wizard, and I may even have the opportunity to reach the third level!" Enzo's eyes flashed and he murmured to himself.
Immediately afterwards, Enzo turned around and looked in the direction of the Weeping Forest.
According to the information given by Puli, it is the territory of the ogre tribe. Among them, the two-headed ogre, as the chief, not only possesses a killing divinity, but is also a third-level life form.
"Level 3 life form!" A solemn expression appeared on Enzo's face.
With his current strength, it is easy to deal with second-level life forms, but if he wants to challenge beyond the next level, he needs to rely on the power of those trump cards.
"It's a pity that Sani didn't get through the adaptation period."
Enzo shook his head, with a look of regret on his face. The biggest trump card in his hand was the Emerald Crow as a third-level life form. However, due to the blood moon rules, the Emerald Crow is currently in a weak stage and cannot display its full strength at all. .
If he could use the power of the Emerald Crow, Enzo was confident that he could leapfrog the challenge, but the current situation made him hesitate.
"The two-headed ogre is a strange species among ogres. In a sense, it is also a deformity. The two heads make it possess higher intelligence, and it is also very likely to awaken the ability to use magic!"
"At the same time, as the chief of the tribe, the two-headed ogre's life level has reached level three. In addition to its own strength, other ogres in the tribe can also help it in the battle!"
“Those things have to be thought of ahead of time.”
Enzo's eyes were thinking, thoughts flashing in his mind.
No matter how you calculate it, if a second-level wizard challenges a third-level two-headed ogre with tribal power, the winning rate is not optimistic. However, according to the information provided by Puli, Enzo knows more secret information, so his heart gradually outlines Come up with a detailed plan.
"Now that we have decided, let's start as soon as possible!" Enzo took a deep breath, made a decision in his heart, and headed towards the Weeping Forest.
…
An hour later, the Weeping Forest.
The eerie primeval forest, with lush trees connected together, and a faint cry coming from inside, makes people feel scared.
In place, Enzo stood outside the forest.
Like the Corruption Swamp, after deciding to take the Two-Headed Ogre as his next target, he did not rush into the Weeping Forest. Instead, he first released the Shadow Crow to explore the situation inside the forest.
"Two-headed ogre, third-level life form!"
"The chief of the Weeping Forest Ogre Tribe was originally just a deformity in the tribe. Later, due to the double-headed awakening of magical abilities, he defeated all competitors in the tribe and successfully took the position of chief."
Enzo's eyes showed light blue, and he looked at the information about the two-headed ogre in his irises, with a thoughtful expression on his face.
"Two hundred years ago, the ogre tribe in the Weeping Forest was weak, and the entire tribe had no more than thirty members. But as the two-headed ogre became the chief, it first obtained the killing divinity from a tomb, and then used it with extreme power. Grow fast!”
"A hundred years ago, the two-headed ogre successfully promoted to the third level of life form. At the same time, the tribe also ushered in its peak. The number of ogres exceeded 200, which also further expanded the ambition of the two-headed ogre!"
"In order to expand its territory, the two-headed ogre led his tribe into the abandoned land and started a battle with the Skeleton King, who was also a third-level life form. In the end, both sides suffered losses. At least 100,000 skeletons died, and the number of ogre tribes also sharpened. Down to less than a hundred.”
"After that, the ogre tribe retreated to the Weeping Forest. The two-headed ogre as the chief was seriously injured and recuperated. The Skeleton King in the abandoned land also fell into silence for a hundred years and is still sleeping deep in the stone tomb!"
The corners of Enzo's lips raised, and a sneer appeared on his face.
The two-headed ogre led the tribe to attack the abandoned land, seemingly to expand the territory and allow the ogre tribe to further expand.
However, in fact, as the owner of divinity, Enzo knew very well that the wisdom of the two-headed ogre far exceeded that of ordinary ogres. The plan that seemed to be implemented for the development of the tribe was actually to plunder divinity.
The Skeleton King, a third-level life form, also possesses the divinity of killing. As the master of the abandoned land, like the two-headed ogre, they are eager to plunder each other's divinity in order to strengthen themselves and move toward a higher level. Evolution of life levels.
The evolution of the third-level life form is naturally the fourth level, and at the same time, another way to call it is a god!
"Strictly speaking, third-level life forms can indeed be called demigods!" Enzo's eyes flashed and he whispered, "Whether it is a two-headed ogre or a skeleton king, relying on divine power to advance to third level, through simple Killing can no longer make them evolve again!”
"And swallowing the divinity of both sides is an opportunity for them to evolve! Although it may not be able to ignite the divine fire and become a true god, it is at least one of the essential conditions."
In place, Enzo stroked his chin.
"As the possessor of divinity, the two-headed ogre must have enough awareness of other divinities. As soon as I enter the Weeping Forest, it will notice it immediately!"
"So, before entering the Weeping Forest, I should try to collect as much information as possible!"
In the dark and lush Weeping Forest, shadow crows flew around. After the vision was distributed, the scene in the forest also appeared in Enzo's eyes.
Click!
Next to a thick tree, three huge ogres, three meters tall, were eating a corpse. Their bloodshot mouths opened and closed, making a creepy chewing sound.
As the territory of the ogres, the Weeping Forest naturally has no human beings. Therefore, the ogres living here usually have corpses to feed on. Although it is not as delicious as fresh flesh and blood, it does not matter to the ogres.
The scene changed to another part of the Weeping Forest.
Two shadow crows stood on the treetops, looking in different directions. An ogre was wandering around carrying a huge log. When he found a walking corpse, he beat it to death with a stick.
"Fifteen, sixteen...nineteen."
Outside the Weeping Forest, Enzo murmured that after using the shadow crows to distribute his vision, the first information he needed was how many ogres there were in this forest.
If he had known earlier, the two-headed ogre targeted by Enzo was the chief of the entire ogre tribe and had the right to command all ogres.
Therefore, if you want to kill the two-headed ogre, you should first deal with its minions.
"One hundred and twenty-two, one hundred and twenty-three..."
"One hundred and twenty-five!"
Half an hour later, Enzo's eyes flashed slightly, and using the vision of the shadow crow, he found a total of one hundred and twenty-five ogres in the Weeping Forest, and the number of members of the entire ogre tribe was almost the same.
"Where's the two-headed ogre?"
Enzo frowned slightly. Through the vision of Shadow Crow, he saw almost every corner of the Weeping Forest, but he did not find the two-headed ogre as the tribal chief.
"That's..." At this time, Enzo's pupils shrank.
Deep in the Weeping Forest, a shadow crow suddenly discovered a grotto, from which a dull snoring sound could be heard.
With a thought in Enzo's mind, the shadow crow flew like a grotto.
In the dark and gloomy environment, there were a large number of dead bones scattered on the ground, a huge rock mountain, and an ogre with two heads, sleeping soundly.
Suddenly, the two-headed ogre's eyelids trembled.
The left side of his head seemed to notice something, and he suddenly opened his eyes. There was a glimmer of light in the yellow eyes, and he turned around and looked around the grotto.
But the right side of the head is still sleeping soundly!
"Wake up, you idiot!"
The left head raised an arm and slapped the right head hard, causing the right head to wake up and shake in confusion.
"What's wrong? Maka?"
The right head had a silly expression on his face and asked while scratching his head.
Maka, the one on the left head, didn't reply. He looked around cautiously, with a thoughtful look in his eyes and a puzzled expression on his face.
"It always feels like there's something."
Maka frowned suspiciously, but didn't notice the crow in the corner that had turned into a shadow and disappeared. She could only shake her head angrily.
"Forget it, maybe it's an illusion?"
Maka stopped thinking and comforted Maro on the right side of her head for a few words before continuing to fall asleep.
…
Meanwhile, outside the Weeping Forest.
"What a keen sense of perception!" Enzo's eyes flickered slightly and he murmured in a low voice.
The palm-sized shadow crow is approaching, but the two-headed ogre can sense it immediately. This obviously shows that the information given by Puli is correct. The two-headed ogre has indeed awakened his magic ability, so his mental attributes can reach such a level. The degree of sharpness.
"Next, you can take action."
On the spot, Enzo was thinking with his eyes, using the Shadow Crow as a field of vision. He had already mastered enough information. Not only did he understand the number and distribution of ogres in the Weeping Forest, he even found out the area where the two-headed ogre was located. .
Next, it was time for him to take action.
Enzo took a deep breath, and then quickly entered the Weeping Forest. The two-headed ogre had the power to command the entire tribe, and confronting it directly was obviously very detrimental to Enzo.
Therefore, before confronting the two-headed ogre, Enzo needs to weaken its strength and reduce the number of ogres in the Weeping Forest. This is also the first step in Enzo's plan.
