Witch Alchemist

This time, in order to avoid having to guard against strangers in the wild, Roy and Renien and others decided to stay together for warmth.

It happened that four people signed up for a team and waited for the senior apprentice assigned by Wuta to arrive, which was a standard task team.

What they were happy about was that it was not an ordinary senior apprentice.

She was strong enough to deter the scoundrels.

But what they were worried about was that Wuta would assign a simple task to Sophia and let her go on an outing with a group of rookies?

No matter how you look at it, it is a configuration for a difficult task.

And, to put it bluntly...

Maybe the most dangerous one is the senior sister!

But things have come to this point, and everyone has no way to change anything, so they can only passively accept it.

Early in the morning, they arrived at the entrance of Wuta in advance. There were already many apprentices who set off one after another, and most of them had sad faces, looking like they were going to die with difficulty.

Roy and others looked at the task description and had similar expressions.

At this time, they knew that the task location assigned to them by Wuta was a zero-level resource point nicknamed "Apple Orchard".

It was indeed a task location marked as difficult.

However, resource points...

Roy suddenly thought about something.

While checking the details, Raynian reminded him: "Portning is here!"

The other party came to Roy and showed a bit of coldness: "Roy, you didn't take my words to heart at all, just ignored them."

Roy already had the strength of a knight at this time, and he was a little more confident.

But he didn't show it, and said calmly: "Lord Portning, what do you mean?"

Portning said: "During this period of time, you dared to secretly sell that kind of soothing perfume! Trides has already told me."

Roy frowned.

It's that kid again!

Trides' social circle overlaps too much with his own, and it is not easy to completely conceal it.

He had no choice but to use the tiger's skin as a banner and said: "Our leader this time is Senior Sister Sofia!"

Potterning sneered: "I know that there is a senior apprentice leading the team this time, but she can't protect you forever, and she will deal with you sooner or later!"

...

"Huh, finally left!"

"Roy, you have to be careful, this guy is really holding a grudge against you."

Soon after, Portning left, his companions breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Roy.

Roy looked calm: "It's okay, just get stronger as soon as possible."

Rainian looked at him in surprise, as if he had noticed something.

This calmness...

It was as if he was not the one being threatened!

After a long time, Sofia came late.

She actually brought another person with her, who was the pigtailed girl Celine who had been seen before.

"Are you from the Apple Orchard Investigation Team?"

"Yes, Senior Sister Sofia, my name is..."

Rainian approached and tried to get close to her.

As a result, Sophia interrupted him: "Yes, let's go."

Rainien was embarrassed and didn't dare to say anything more.

Roy was quite interested in watching Sophia touch the ring and summon two light balls from the treasure that seemed to be a storage magic weapon.

Following that, the body expanded and turned into two giant wolf puppets that were about ten feet long and appeared in front of everyone.

It was a flesh and blood puppet made from the corpse of a demonized creature. It had a gloomy undead aura on its body, but its appearance was lifelike. If you didn't pay attention, you would really think it was a living creature.

"Let's go up."

Sophia asked a few people to climb on the back of one of the giant wolves, and she took Celine to ride on another wolf.

Along the way, the giant wolf ran wildly, shaking everyone up.

Roy had to hold on to its fur tightly to prevent falling off its back.

This journey was definitely not comfortable, but it was convenient and fast. It took only more than two hours to reach the mission location marked by the witch tower, the "apple orchard".

Sophia asked everyone to get off the wolf's back, and she also led the team inside.

The two giant wolf puppets followed on the left and right wings to guard, and did not retract until they reached the narrow area inside.

What appeared in front of everyone was a wild garden in the valley. The walls built in the past were still tall, but they were already covered with vines and mosses.

The garden was lush with vegetation, and the winding path led to the depths. On both sides were fruit trees that looked like apple trees.

"This is the so-called apple orchard..."

"It doesn't look strange."

"But these fruits are really strange. At first glance, there are some snake scale-like patterns on the peel. If you don't pay attention, you really think there are snakes coiled on them!"

"I almost saw it dazzled just now."

Everyone looked around, with different expressions.

No mistakes, one sentence, one post, one content, one in one 6, one book, one bar, one look!

Roy was thoughtful.

Although low-level apprentices rarely have the opportunity to travel outside the tower, they have also learned about some things in the outside world in the past years.

The seven wizard towers of the Seven Towers Alliance are all concentrated on this continent called Mysterious Island, which is the place where the wizard world's magic power is enriched and various materials are concentrated.

After the great wizards stepped out of the star sea and conquered the alien world, they brought back a lot of good things from the outside to feed back the world's will, so they can continuously cultivate lower-level wizards as a reserve army.

"Apple Orchard" is such an artificial resource point.

Usually there are guards here, but now, I'm afraid it's too late.

"Hehehe..."

While thinking, an inexplicable laugh came from the wind.

"The tree... the tree is laughing!"

"No, it's the fruit on the tree!"

Everyone looked over in surprise.

Sophia was quite disdainful of the fuss of several intermediate apprentices: "Isn't it just the snake fruit? What's the fuss?"

Everyone suddenly remembered that they had learned related content before.

Snake fruit, this is a magical fruit that can arouse human desires and has a hallucinogenic effect.

Some alchemists extract its juice and brew it into a potion called "Sweet Dreams"...

Although it doesn't have much effect, it is also quite popular.

This is a fruit potion with relatively high economic value among low-level materials.

Roy recalled the knowledge he knew in his mind and gradually cast his eyes to the depths of the orchard, where a layer of fog like miasma shrouded it.

"The radiation pollution of witchcraft energy is far more serious than expected.

It seems that the previous accident has begun to pollute the ground veins, and the fruit trees and fruits inside may have undergone some kind of mutation."

Above the huge orchard, the sky and the earth were dark. It should have been noon, but it seemed like it was about to fall at night.

But the orchard below seemed to have its own spiritual light, still as bright as day.

"Wait, something is not right."

Sophia stopped and stared into the distance, as if trying to penetrate the fog.

Roy's heart tightened when he heard this.

He could hear a hint of vigilance in Sophia's tone.

"What might be hidden inside..."

Sophia's voice became ethereal.

The fog around them spread silently.

Unconsciously, it gradually covered the figures of the people.
