Journey to the Wizarding World

"The mentor is looking for me. Does he have a task to give?" Enzo asked.

"That's right!" Gustav nodded and said solemnly, "Three months ago, [Lital Area] sent twelve wizard teams to carry out exploration and exploration missions into the world outside the tower."

"According to the mission content, twelve wizard teams will develop in different directions of the [Lital Area]."

"As of yesterday, eleven wizard teams have returned to the tower after completing their pioneering missions, but there is still one exploration team that has not yet returned and has lost contact with us."

"Lost contact?" Enzo raised his eyebrows.

"That's right." Gustav frowned and sighed, "The missing wizard team is composed of a Guardian first-level wizard and thirty rune knights. They were originally headed to the direction of [Twisted Jungle] to carry out development

mission, but ten days ago, we suddenly lost contact with the tower."

"Based on past experience, if the pioneering team loses contact with the tower for more than ten days, it is likely to have encountered an accident!"

"The task assigned to you this time is to investigate the cause of the disappearance of the pioneering team and continue to explore the Twisted Jungle area."

"Understood!" Enzo nodded.

The content of the mission is already very clear. There is a team of wizards missing in the Twisted Jungle area. It is basically certain that something unexpected happened, and Enzo's mission is to go and investigate what exactly happened.

"You can set off this afternoon."

Gustav stretched out his hand, holding a crystal cube in his palm, and said, "This is the data passed back by the previous wizard team during the development mission, which records the basic map of the Twisted Jungle."

"For this mission, you have the right to recruit some extraordinary knights to form a pioneering team, but the number cannot exceed thirty."

"I understand, mentor!" Enzo took the cube and put it away, then nodded.

…

On the desolate plain, a team moved forward.

Enzo rode the black horse transformed by Swain and walked at the front of the team, followed closely by thirty rune knights driving magic horses.

"Sir, the Twisted Jungle is ahead."

At this time, a rune knight wearing black armor and a narrow scar on his eye controlled the magic horse and stepped forward, saying in a deep voice.

"Carter, take five Rune Knights and go explore the road ahead." Enzo ordered.

"Yes, sir!" Knight Carter ordered and waved to the back. Five rune knights immediately followed and went to explore the way ahead.

Several Rune Knights entered the jungle ahead and after confirming that there was nothing abnormal, Knight Carter made a gesture to indicate that everything was normal.

"Let's go too." Enzo nodded slightly and led the others into the jungle.

This mission team has a total of thirty-one people. In addition to Enzo, who is a first-level wizard, there are three first-level life form level rune knights, and the rest are ordinary rune knights.

In the lush primitive jungle, the tall trees completely blocked the light projected from above, making the environment a bit dark, with many branches and vines crisscrossing the surrounding area.

In this kind of jungle area, it is difficult for ordinary horses to move forward. Fortunately, the mounts of the Rune Knights are all iron-clawed demon horses with the blood of monsters. They are species cultivated by wizard civilization after thousands of years, and they have the ability to adapt to any environment.

Ability.

"Chip, turn on the scanning function and record the surrounding terrain!" Enzo ordered in his heart.

There was silence in the Twisted Jungle, not even a sound of insects could be heard around, as if there was no life here, and there was a hint of weirdness in the silence.

Herod!

At this moment, in the advancing team, an iron-clawed demon horse suddenly screamed, and its owner, the Rune Knight, quickly comforted it.

"What the hell?" On the side, Knight Carter drew out his cross sword.

On the hind legs of the iron-clawed demon horse, there is a green plant wrapped around it, which is similar to grass, but has sharp leaves that rub together like a serrated knife.

brush!

On the back of the Iron Claw Demon Horse, the Rune Knight decisively drew out his cross sword and slashed towards the grass and plants. As a result, there was a sound of metal friction.

Stab!

When the cross sword came over, the grass plant immediately waved a slender leaf to block the sword attack. Then, it let go of the Iron Claw Demon Horse's hind legs and curled up on the spot.

At this time, jagged wounds appeared on the legs of the iron-clawed demon horse. Although no bones were damaged, the blood was flowing.

The Rune Knight suddenly felt a little distressed. The Iron Claw Demon Horse was his mount, a partner, and even a family member.

"Damn it!" The rune knight whose mount was injured was a little angry, and he swung his cross sword and prepared to chop down the grass plant.

"Wait a minute!" At this time, Enzo said.

The Rune Knight quickly stopped, retracted his cross sword and stepped aside, took out some medicine from his backpack, and treated the wounds of the Iron Claw Demon Horse.

Enzo got off his horse and walked over.

"Chip, scan!" Looking at the grass curled up on the ground, Enzo ordered in his heart.

"Ding! Unknown species discovered..."

"Sure enough, it is a new species!" Enzo's eyes lit up, he took out a dagger and tried to cut off a part of the grass plant.

However, before Enzo's dagger could touch the grass, two slender, serrated leaves were already swinging, like a swordsman using two swords.

Ding dong!

The dagger collided with the leaves, making a metallic sound. The grass and plants no longer curled up, but stretched out their whole bodies, and the four saw-toothed leaves were waving at the same time.

Squeak!

There was a small sharp sound, which seemed to be made by grass and plants. Although the specific meaning was not clear, it seemed to be expressing anger.

"Chip, name the new species: sawgrass."

A hint of interest appeared on Enzo's face. In [Elkila World], a plant actually has such a strong sense of self-protection, and even gave birth to the most basic wisdom.

Ding dong!

Enzo held the dagger in his hand. As soon as he got close to the sawgrass, the opponent would react violently, swinging the four sawtooth leaves like soft swords.

"The sense of the outside world is very strong."

Enzo's eyes flickered and he came to some basic conclusions. When sawgrass is threatened, it will fight back with its four leaves.

Then, Enzo put away the dagger, grabbed the sawgrass with his hand, and pulled it out by the roots.

Zhizhi!!

The sawgrass made a sharp cry, and when its gray roots were exposed to the air, they withered immediately, looking extremely weak.

"Can't you leave the dirt?"

Enzo took out a glass jar, filled it with some soil, and then planted the sawgrass, and the sawgrass regained its vitality.
