My Magic Age

Everyone has the darkest corners deep in their hearts, where the most fearful things are hidden.

Most people have an innate fear of spiders. They originally thought that since these two evil mages had joined the Hermitage, they should have the consciousness to die for the Hermitage at all times, but they did not expect that they would actually be in front of a giant spider. , fear caused the defense line in their hearts to suddenly collapse.

…

These giant spiders, which were kept in iron cages and had eight legs cut off, looked like huge and disgusting eggs.

The way they eat is terrifying. Generally speaking, they wrap their prey into a white silk cocoon, and then inject corrosive venom into the prey's body, allowing the prey to turn into a bag of viscous nutrient solution in the silk cocoon. After a period of time, After settling, the giant spiders stretched out a one-meter-long bone needle from their mouths, pierced the silk cocoon, and sucked the nutrient solution inside the silk cocoon into their abdomens.

There are many ways to die, but this way of death, caused by a giant spider making a white silk cocoon, is undoubtedly creepy.

In particular, the saying that the soul will be imprisoned in a silk cocoon was something I read in a miscellaneous book. The authenticity is somewhat verified. Unexpectedly, these two evil mages actually believed that this statement was true, so This sentence became the 'last straw that broke the camel's back', causing their psychological defenses to completely collapse.

I had the two evil mages separated and asked each of them to tell me what they knew about Justus.

…

There was a pot of hot tea on the table, and the evil mage Utley was holding the tea cup in both hands, wearing a linen blouse and sitting honestly on the chair.

‘Gulu’

After taking a sip of warm tea, a trace of red appeared on his pale face. Utley stared at me with squinted eyes. His eyes looked a little cloudy. He paused for a few seconds before asking me: "What do you want?" Know something?"

"Start from the beginning, I want to hear anything about Justus!" I said to him.

Utley let out a long sigh of relief from his chest, sorted out his words a little, and then began to speak:

“Five years ago, we were ordered to come to the Vashj plane.

In order to find a magic potion formula called 'Flower of Rococo', the Priory Headquarters issued an order for us to come to Vashj from the Emerald Bay of Palestina Province, and a team of us split up and infiltrated. People in every corner of Vashj's plane were looking for the formula for this magic potion.

How much do you know about the ‘Rococo Flower’ magic potion? This is a magic potion recipe spread from the demon clan in the hell world.

For so many years, our organization has been committed to the research of 'black magic'. When I heard that the legendary 'Rococo Potion' potion formula appeared on the Vashj plane, I naturally wouldn't miss it.

Fortunately, this magic potion formula has always been regarded as a very special perfume formula and was kept by a small lord on the Vashj plane. This lord's father was also a magician.

The magician once thought about preparing a bottle of 'Rococo Flower' perfume according to the formula of the potion. Unfortunately, he was limited by the magic materials and could not collect enough 'Devil's Blood'. Therefore, we have never been able to make the 'Rococo Flower' potion..."

I interrupted him rudely: "Wait a minute, the origin of the 'Rococo Flower' magic potion can be discussed later! If you still have a chance to live, now I just want to hear about Justus matter."

A hand grabbed the evil mage Utley's hair from behind and pulled him back.

His back hit the back of the chair hard, but the hand did not stop because of this. The hand continued to pull Utley's hair, pulling his head upward slightly.

Evil Mage Utley opened his mouth slightly, with a painful expression on his face.

"Be honest and don't play tricks. I don't have the patience to waste time with you here." Kalancso warned the evil mage Utli coldly.

There was panic in Evil Mage Utley's eyes.

I waved my hand and signaled Kalancso to take a step back. She reluctantly let go and took a step back.

Utley was shocked and horrified. He adjusted the collar of his blouse, then gently touched his chest with his hand and took two deep breaths to calm himself down as quickly as possible.

Then he said to me: "Although what I said before is about the origin of the 'Rococo Flower' magic formula, it has some relationship with the Justus you want to know about."

"In the past few years, we have been collecting various magic resources on the Vashj plane and transporting them back to Palestina Province through the portal in Galapagos. Vashj is a rich plane. In addition to hiding In addition to the magic mines on each island, there are endless sea beasts to hunt in the sea.

Countless merchant ships have been sailing in this sea area for a long time, but they have been harassed by pirates.

The Mensa family's military strength on the Vashj plane is limited, and those fleets have no way of launching a large-scale encirclement and suppression of the pirates.

Over the years, pirates have amassed an astonishing amount of wealth on the plane of Vashj.

Until a great pirate king appeared on the plane of Vashj, he took all the pirate's wealth into his own hands, and before he died, he hid the treasure in an unknown place. This treasure is called the 'Pirate King's Treasure'.

The pirate king made a treasure map, which he divided into two parts and passed to his two sons, in order to make his two sons work together. Unfortunately, the situation did not go as planned. Not long after the pirate king died, the two sons quarreled over the treasure map. Later, the two brothers fought each other just to fight for the other half of the treasure map.

This naval battle lasted for more than ten years, and finally the second son of the pirate king was defeated.

It is said that in order to win the naval battle, the eldest son of the pirate king invited a powerful sea monster from the plane of Vashj to help. Whenever there was fog on the sea, the sea monster would appear and use singing to confuse the sailors of the second son of the pirate king, leading their sailboats into the reefs and causing them to hit the reefs and sink.

It is said that the second son of the pirate king also died in the hands of the sea monster, and the half of the treasure map was also snatched away by the sea monster. Later, the sea monster disappeared with the treasure map.

Many pirates are looking for the whereabouts of the sea monster in order to find the treasure. We have only recently tracked him to Dunai Island. Some people say that the sea monster has been dead for many years, and his descendants live in Dunai Island under a pseudonym.

And the information we got is that Justus, the owner of the tavern of the Thieves Guild on Dunai Island, is the descendant of the sea monster we are looking for. "

Utley stopped talking slowly at this point.

I asked the evil wizard Utley curiously: "What did you get from Justus?"

Utley did not hide anything about this and said to me: "This guy has been unwilling to reveal any information, so we took a little trick, but unfortunately, before the trick worked, he was found by the Excellency."

I asked Utley again: "What exactly is the trick you are talking about?"

Utley said to me: "We fed him a little potion containing "devil's blood", which made him fall into a beautiful illusion for a while. If this thing is taken for a long time, it will form a kind of dependence and will also be addictive. "

"Once addicted, it means that he has sold his soul to the devil. We hope to use the 'demon blood' to make Justus surrender. After all, we need him to lead us to find the treasure."

"It should not be too far from his first drug addiction."

I have seen the power of the 'demon blood' drug addiction. Su was almost destroyed by the drug addiction because of taking the 'shadow body' potion.

Now it seems that the Black Magic Hermitage also knows the evil of the 'demon blood'.

Hearing this, I realized that the legend of the 'pirate king's treasure' was actually true. If this is true, then the half of the treasure map we got from Captain Johnny Jones may be the half of the treasure map of the pirate king's treasure... I have to say to myself: Ji Jia, you are a little too whimsical!

...

It's just that I have I don't understand why no sailor told me the truth when I asked the sailors on the Slave Trader. Now it seems that they are not unaware of the rumors about the sea monster, but they just refuse to tell me.

What makes me even more confused is that I have asked Earl Evan about the sea monster, but they also said they didn't know. What's going on? There is no reason for them to hide the news of the sea monster from me.

So I asked Utley: "Why did I ask the sailors on the ship, and all of them said they never knew about the sea monster?"

Utley said to me without hesitation: "That means there is only one possibility, that is, all the sailors on your ship are pirates."

"The secret of the pirate king's treasure is only circulated among pirates. Pirates don't want more people to know this secret, so of course they won't tell outsiders about it. This is a rule that pirates have agreed to follow. ”

“…” I was a little speechless, thinking that after returning to the ‘Slave Trader’, I must give these cunning sailors a good beating. They are really tight-lipped!

In fact, what I can’t understand is that after arriving at Dunai Island, we invited a guide named Rita who is very familiar with Dunai Island. I originally wanted to get some information about the sea monster from her, but she not only said she didn’t know, but also took us to the tavern.

We asked about the sea monster in the thieves’ guild in the tavern. I don’t understand why even the thieves’ guild concealed the truth from us.

So I asked Utley again: “Why didn’t I get any news about the sea monster in the thieves’ guild in the tavern on Dunai Island!”

Utley told me directly: “This is even easier to explain, because the real owner of this tavern is actually Justus. "

Just then, there was a knock on the door outside the interrogation room. Kalancuo walked to the door, and an orc warrior appeared at the door of the interrogation room and whispered a few words to Kalancuo.

Kalancuo nodded slightly, but his expression did not change.

After the orc warrior finished speaking, Kalancuo returned to my side and whispered in my ear: "Justus's drug addiction has relapsed. Do you want to go and see him...".

...

When I walked to the stone room where Justus was recuperating, I found that there were more than a dozen orc warriors standing outside the stone room, blocking the door of the stone room.

Until Kalancuo and I came over, the orc warriors made way for me and Kalancuo to enter the stone room.

The first thing that caught my eye was the dilapidated and messy room, which was in a mess.

The pottery pot that fell to the ground broke into several broken pieces. The ground was also covered with fragments of the sheepskin mattress. It looked like it had been torn to pieces by a huge force. The Hierro indigenous woman was hiding in the stone room. In the corner, there was a panicked look on his face.

At this time, Justus stood in the stone chamber. His face was pale and bloodless, his pupils showed a faint blue glow, and a layer of thin fish scales faintly appeared under the skin of his body. On both sides of his arms and thighs, there were some bone spurs on the vertebrae. Those bone spurs looked a bit like fish scales.

Unexpectedly, Justus turned into a half-human, half-demon monster.

At this moment, what the evil mage Utley just said was immediately verified. Justus is indeed a descendant of the Kraken. It seems that part of his body still has human characteristics, but part of his body also shows the physical characteristics of the Kraken. .

Justice looked a little crazy. When he saw me pushing the door open and walking in, he yelled with hostility.

It can be seen that he has been working hard to control his drug addiction. To this end, he did not hesitate to transform into a half-human and half-demon state.

After he saw me, a violent look flashed in his eyes, he roared, and rushed towards me with his teeth and claws bared.

Before he could rush to my side, he was kicked out by a snow-white thigh. This kick was so powerful that his body was out of control at all and he fell backwards. There was a 'bang' sound and his back was hit. On the stone wall.

It could be seen from his expression that Justice was in pain and wanted to find a way to vent it out.

Seeing Kalancuo walking up from me, I pulled her arm and said to her: "Be careful, don't beat him to death. He was in very poor health before his drug addiction took hold."

Kalancso nodded to me.

At this time, Justus struggled to stand up straight, and in an extremely uncomfortable state, he assumed a fighting posture.

Justus pounced on him again, like a ferocious beast. Driven by instinct, he wanted to knock Kalantso down, but he underestimated the power of Kalantso. When his body was in the air, At that moment, Kalancso rushed in front of him and slammed his shoulder into Justus' lower abdomen. Justus once again fell backwards like a kite with its string broken.

Seeing Justus squatting in the corner and panting, Kalantso shouted to him: "Get up! Why, is this all you have? Aren't you the so-called descendant of the Kraken? Are you from the Kraken clan? Is your body as disabled as yours?"

Hearing what Kalantso said, Justus's eyes flashed green, and he roared again, bouncing off the ground like a cannonball, and rushed towards Kalantso, but Kalantō grabbed his arm sideways, A coherent over-the-shoulder throw knocked Justus out again.

Justus' body stuck to the rocky ground, slid far away, and hit the stone wall with a 'bang'.
