Chapter 657: Forbidden Spell Society Recruitment (Two in One)
The next few months were unusually peaceful. The sultry summer passed with an autumn breeze, and winter followed.
Like bears and crocodiles, most sea monsters also entered a hibernation period.
This was originally a good thing, but most people were not happy at all.
It was too cold.
It was so cold that it was weird.
The magnificent Dongting Lake actually had a tendency to freeze. In the area adjacent to Longwan, you could often hear the "crackling" sound of ice breaking in the middle of the night, and the roar of dragons.
Traffic was paralyzed on a large scale. Many roads and railways were unable to operate. In the worst-hit areas, it was even difficult for people to go out.
The only consolation was that there was finally enough food.
If you can eat your fill, there won't be too much trouble.
Not to mention the shocking plight of other coastal countries on the Internet. The photos of people who were swollen from hunger and frozen into human sticks that were not deleted in time were terrifying.
"Although the external environment may have covered our lives with a thin layer of frost, please believe that every flower blooming in the cold wind indicates the tenacity and indomitable spirit of spring."
"Today is the Spring Festival. May the bells of the New Year not only take away the haze of the old year, but also bring a brilliant new year!"
The TV is broadcasting the Spring Festival Gala's congratulatory message.
The old couple sat on the sofa in front of the TV. They didn't eat or turn on the lights. Only the light of the TV illuminated their faces.
"Okay, go to bed." The old lady said.
"You still have to stay up all night." The old man said, "Just think of it as staying up for your son."
The old lady didn't say anything, and the room fell silent again for a while.
Ding Dong.
The doorbell rang.
"Who is it?" The old couple was a little surprised. The social worker volunteers had already delivered the food yesterday. Who would come at this time?
Opening the door, they were instantly surprised: "Son!"
"Comrade father, comrade mother, former Jinlin, now private first class Meng Da of the Southern Military Region reports to you!" The young military magistrate saluted.
"You kid, hurry up and get in the house!"
"Son, I saw on the news that this road is blocked, how did you come back?"
Meng Da smiled and said, "I came back on a dragon beast, and it took me back."
"Okay, okay, how many days will you stay at home this time?"
"I'll leave tomorrow."
"Ah?"
The old couple was stunned: "Tomorrow? So early?"
"I can't help it. There is a severe shortage of manpower now, and I can't be busy at all." Meng Da said helplessly.
The old man was puzzled: "Aren't you a healing hygienist? Didn't the TV say that the sea monster hibernates? Why are you still so busy?"
"Low-temperature disease, many people on the coast have this disease." Meng Da said.
This low-temperature disease, which has been prevalent in the coastal areas recently, keeps people's bodies at low temperatures all the time and cannot generate heat at all, and they die in their sleep.
Even if people are placed in a high-temperature environment, their bodies will still be hypothermic, and no one knows in which dream they will die in a daze.
"So scary?" The old couple was shocked and relieved.
Fortunately, their son is a mage.
Since he broke through the intermediate level, his son has basically never been sick. Presumably, this hypothermia can't harm the noble magician!
Meng Da noticed the expressions of his parents, but he didn't say anything.
In fact, magicians can also get this disease.
Even fire magicians, who are born furnaces, are no exception.
There is no need to say it, because it will only make two more people worried, and there is no other use.
······
"I counted the data of the patients and found no signs of infection. There is no pattern between them."
At Xu Fang's house, the pot on the induction cooker was bubbling, beef and mutton rolls and meatballs were flying together, and the tripe was the same color as the sky.
Lingling gulped down a mouthful of iced milk tea and said excitedly: "But I screened and arranged the people who had never been sick and found this city————"
"Lanyang!"
"No one living in Lanyang City has contracted hypothermia! It's like they are born with hypothermia antibodies!"
Lingling clapped her hands: "The virus doesn't care where you are from. If you want to know the truth, you have to go to Lanyang to find it! And!"
She excitedly poked the screen of her mobile phone and put it in front of her: "I hired a team of hunters to explore in advance. Look what I found!"
The background of the picture is a city, which is the kind of prosperity with a sense of age. In the center of the picture is a factory with a sign on the factory gate.
Lingling clicked on the picture to enlarge the sign.
"Ah!" Jiang Shaoxu screamed and recognized it at a glance: "Totem pattern!"
"That's right!"
Lingling said excitedly: "And it is an extremely rare feather series. Many totems of this type can be possessed. They are ancient and powerful!"
Lanyang is worth exploring.
"I'll go." Qin Yuer smiled.
"I'll go too!" Jiang Shaoxu signed up actively.
"Where's Xu Fang?" Lingling used her chopsticks to pick up a meatball and hummed, "If he must go, I can actually consider it..."
"He can't go." Jiang Shaoxu said, "He's with my father, practicing."
Jiaodong Bay.
On the vast sea covered by pieces of floating ice, there is a twisted and wriggling island floating.
The island is purple. If you look closely, it is made of some plant vines, but compared with ordinary plants, it has a bit more weirdness like an ocean octopus.
Xu Fang sat on a seat made of plants, with several plant main veins extending from his body.
It is clear that this plant island is his masterpiece.
Rumble...
The plants trembled, twisted, and twisted.
Subsequently.
boom! ! ! ! !
An earth-shattering explosion, the sea water was suddenly lifted up at this moment, and the boundary between heaven and earth became so blurred and chaotic.
The originally calm sea of ice instantly turned into a raging sea of huge waves.
The huge waves towered into the clouds, like endless mountains. Driven by the strong wind, they rushed in all directions with thunderous momentum!
Phew~~~~~
The cyan wind blocked a wave rushing towards the land.
It was Jiang Chong who took action. He used wind magic to shatter the waves and looked at the young figure revealed in the mist.
"How about it?"
"Failed again." Xu Fang shook his head.
The plant system, after absorbing the power of the flesh and blood beast soul of the Blue Abyss Sea Demon, pushed all the way to the third level of super level.
For this breakthrough, Jiang Chong once again prepared a resource for Xu Fang, which was no less valuable than the Elemental Core of the Earth!
But Xu Fang failed again.
Just like the last time the Arctic broke through the ice system, there was obviously enough energy to penetrate the Star Sea Barrier back and forth twice, but energy would burst out with every impact, all dissipating into the spiritual space.
This energy is directly mixed with the energy of the ice system, and there is also nothing in it. Neither the golden stars nor the power of faith can communicate with it.
"Don't take it personally. If the forbidden curse was so easy to break through, the streets would have been filled with forbidden curses long ago." Jiang Chong said.
Xu Fang smiled helplessly.
My father-in-law is really good at comforting people.
Although he usually likes to act like an elder and recalls bragging and spanking in those days, he really gives it when he has the resources!
The resources that were enough to create two forbidden spells were "wasted" like this without saying anything. You know how heavy the pressure was on your back.
————If your own son is left here, he will be beaten up and called a prodigal!
The heavy topic was ignored by the two men in a tacit understanding.
"Here you go."
Jiang Chong held a letter in his hand and handed it to Xu Fang.
For the first time, Xu Fang wanted to use the word luxurious to describe a letter. It really looked like a spiritually carved work of art, as if it were woven with gold and silver threads.
There is even a circle of tiny pearls and gems inlaid on the back, which form a sacred mountain crest.
"This is?"
"The alliance summons the order." Jiang Chong said.
Xu Fang opened the letter and took out the invitation-like paper inside. There was a line of golden text on it.
"Huaxia—Xu Fang."
"We, the Five Continents Magic Association, will never easily send invitations to any mage, because we believe that mages are free and not being restricted is what they should enjoy."
"But as you said in your speech, facing the ocean crisis together is what every mage should do. Refusing at this time is no different from cowardly avoiding the battle."
"We have a great plan that requires your participation. Please do it if you are as concerned about the survival of the global human race as we are."
"The Five Continents Magical Association Alliance."
Xu Fang read the letter carefully and didn't even miss the signature.
The name of the Five Continents Magic Association is actually not that well-known.
But if you mention another department directly under this organization, people will suddenly realize - the Forbidden Curse Society.
The Forbidden Curse Society sent a call to Xu Fang.
"I didn't get any information about this plan. I could only find out about it from the Chinese Forbidden Curse Society. The task was hosted by one of our Chinese Forbidden Curse Masters," Jiang Chong said.
Letter from the Alliance, any registered magician needs to obey the call unconditionally.
Any false excuses are useless. As long as you become a magician and have your own name in the magic association, you cannot refuse such signs.
This is not a request, it is an obligation.
"This letter comes from the highest magic association in the five continents. Even if the speaker is recruited, the speaker has to go." Jiang Chong frowned: "In this way, the Forbidden Curse Association is allowed to bring some companions, how about I transfer a few people..."
"No."
Xu Fang shook his head and refused.
As long as nothing happened, if something really happened, having someone around would delay Xu Fang's fight to the death.
"At least the people leading the task are Chinese people, don't worry." Xu Fang said.
It has been more than a year since the trip to Kunlun, but Xu Fang can still use the evil abyss to save his life, which is very safe.
······
Before leaving, Xu Fang originally wanted to call Jiang Shaoxu, but after thinking about it, he decided not to.
If Jiang Shaoxu knew about it, she would definitely not agree to go alone, and would definitely interrupt her totem journey to accompany her. There is no need.
The meeting point was decided on an island in the Pacific.
This is a standard ghost reef, the surface is covered with layers of heart-stopping scenes:
Silt and rotten seaweed intertwined into a huge, slimy green carpet, spreading over every inch of the land, exuding an indescribable smell of decay.
As the waves gently lapped the shore, waves of dark black mud were lifted up, and then slowly fell, merging with the rotten seaweed that had already piled up on the shore.
These seaweeds are either twisted into clumps or scattered all over the ground. Their color has faded from bright green to dull yellowish brown, and some have even turned into black humus.
The most horrifying thing is the sea monster corpses scattered everywhere in various shapes.
Their skeletons are exposed hideously, and their skin and flesh have long been eroded by sea water and time. Some of them still retain the indescribable appearance of their life.
The bad luck is visible to the naked eye.
Most of the people in the Alliance have holes in their brains.
Even if you don’t understand fortune-telling, this kind of ghost island is also the standard background of horror adventure movies!
The only thing worth mentioning about this island is the powerful magic barrier on it, and the bone garbage inside has been cleaned and melted away.
"Xu Fang."
A man in a magician's robe came over and looked at Xu Fang with a proud and critical look: "It doesn't look that good. It doesn't have the beauty of our Western sculptures."
Xu Fang: "Do you have it?"
"Of course!" The magician said proudly: "I have a noble family and bloodline..."
"Western sculptures are all little Jiji."
"...What did you say?"
"You too."
"You!"
"Only dogs in China talk about bloodline. The higher the bloodline, the more problems there are."
"Oh, by the way, are you a man or a woman? I can't tell. Is it an armed helicopter?"
The trash talk + the emotional influence of the sound magic sprayed the guy in front of him until he was red, his face and the back of his neck turned liver-colored, and he was so angry.
It can be seen that he wanted to eat Xu Fang alive, but he still forced himself to hold back his anger.
"I like to see you being upset with me but unable to do anything to me."
Xu Fang grinned, revealing his white teeth, and said in a tone of triumph: "Come and hit me."
"Shit!" The mage was broken by Xu Fang's continuous and intensive trash talk, and his eyes seemed to want to eat Xu Fang.
Xu Fang looked at him (her) encouragingly.
Kang Mao, Kang Mao baby.
"Okay Pablo, you can leave."
The space twisted, as if a door was opened, and a figure appeared out of thin air in front of him: "Councilman Xu, follow me."
Xu Fang raised his middle finger before leaving like a primary school student, and Pablo was so angry that he almost choked in his throat.
······
Xu Fang followed this person through the space door and came to an indoor environment.
It was a bit damp, and there was a musty smell without ventilation. There was not even a window around, most of them were caves underground or even inside the mountain.
It was very simple, without any magnificent atmosphere, but everyone inside exuded a sense of majesty, which was the invisible momentum of the forbidden spell mage.
"My Lords, Xu Fang from China has arrived."
Everyone looked over.
Xu Fang also looked at them at the same time, and the cave fell into silence for a while.
"Since everyone is here, let's talk about our mission this time." The old man sitting in the main seat, with ice mist wrapped around his body, said.
