Volume 4: The Cataclysm Chapter 58: Ancient Well
Louise's warning was not without reason, but before that, Marvin was not completely unprepared.
Because of his previous experience in the Secret Garden and his predicament in the Pusen plane, Marvin is now very sensitive to cross-dimensional combat.
Before leaving the White River Valley, he asked Madeline to spend a lot of money to make a tool kit for building a temporary portal.
This toolkit can be used even by non-legendary wizards.
The portal built by the tool kit can teleport Marvin back to the White River Valley from any plane.
So Marvin just smiled, thanked Louise for her kindness, and entered the teleportation array first.
Anyway, after entering the nightmare realm, they will be teleported randomly, so even if the two want to join forces, it is unlikely.
…
The feeling of inter-dimensional teleportation is completely different from long-distance teleportation.
It was a feeling that seemed like a long time had passed, but it also seemed like only a few seconds had passed.
When Marvin opened his eyes, he saw a barren desert.
This is the area where ancient blue dragons gathered, one of the five major areas of the Nightmare Realm.
The desert is the favorite environment of blue dragons. With their expertise in dragon language witchcraft and the ability to hide their bodies, blue dragons are at a great advantage when fighting in the desert.
The nightmare realm is vast, and so is this desert.
After all, this place is for dragons to live in, and it is indeed too open for Marvin, a human.
At a glance, there are nothing but sand dunes, and it is impossible to tell the direction.
Fortunately, the professor had already told Marvin about the various situations that might occur in the nightmare realm, so he was not panicked.
"There are four places in the nightmare realm where rainbow springs or crystal statues may be hidden..."
"Excluding the swamp area where the black dragons live, there is a location in the desert area, mountain area, forest area, and hilly area."
"In the desert area, it looks like an ancient well."
"It is said that it is very conspicuous. To the dragons, it is an ancient well. But in the eyes of humans, it might just be a giant pit, right?"
Marvin thought about it and took out a scroll of transfiguration.
This scroll was given by the professor.
The effect is also very practical.
[Directional Transfiguration Scroll (Dragon Language)]
[Effect: Can turn the designated target into a goshawk]
Duration: 60 minutes
[Active removal method - spell]
…
After activating the scroll of directional transformation, Ma Wen transformed into a goshawk and began to soar over the desert.
The effect of dragon language magic is still very powerful. Even if a general legendary wizard specializes in scroll making and directional transfiguration, the transfiguration scroll he made can only last for 30 minutes at most. The professor's scroll has doubled its effectiveness.
The feeling of being able to fly by yourself is particularly wonderful, which makes Marvin want to learn the skill of transformation.
After he devoured the high-level blood core, he gained the vampire's ability to fly at low altitudes, but this ability does not allow him to fly at high altitudes.
He himself also lacked a flying mount, otherwise he would not have caused so much trouble.
But it's not so easy to learn the art of transformation.
Among the ranger's branch advanced professions, there are some professions that can learn transfiguration, but most of them are very ordinary small creatures.
It's already amazing to be able to transform into a crow, otter, squirrel, etc.
After all, they are not professional druids.
People like Marvin, who have chosen Night Walker as their advanced profession and become the master of the night, can only learn Transfiguration through one way.
That is the leaf of nature - the leaf of the world tree in Fenan branch.
At the beginning, Ma Wenxue's [Two-headed Snake Transformation] and [Alienated Vines] were achieved through the means of Natural Leaves.
Unfortunately, most of the leaves of nature are controlled by the migratory bird council in the north.
After all, they guard Fenan's World Tree, and young druids also need leaves of nature to learn transfiguration or improve the level of their transfiguration.
"It seems that when we go to the High Jungle this time, we must not only deal with the problem of the Endless Ocean, but it is also necessary to learn some Transfiguration skills."
As the saying goes, a thief never leaves empty-handed. Although Marvin is not a thief, his player mentality is very obvious. He has already started to plan for the Migratory Bird Council before even going to the High Jungle. I don't know what those archdruids will think when they know what he is thinking.
…
Flying in the desert is actually a very boring thing.
Marvin had little to do except flap his wings occasionally.
After undergoing directional transformation, his attributes changed drastically, basically becoming those of an ordinary goshawk.
It's just that due to the support of the scroll spell, the physical strength becomes endless.
That is to say, he can keep flying until the effect of the Transfiguration Scroll wears off.
At the same time, he also gained a special passive ability - [Eye of the Eagle].
[Eagle's Eyes: You can see through extremely subtle targets]
This passive ability allows Marvin to not miss any place in the desert where an ancient well may be hidden.
He didn't even need to take the initiative to observe, the Eagle Eye would continuously feed back information.
This long and boring flight lasted for almost twenty minutes.
There were faint traces of mountains ahead.
Marvin knew that he might have flown out of the desert area.
"Did we go in the wrong direction?"
Ma Wen thought to himself.
Should we fly back next, or just go into the mountainous area and try our luck?
The mountain area is the territory of the red dragon, and it is said that the Rainbow Spring may be hidden here.
But finding a spring among those mountains was a very troublesome task. Marvin wandered at the border for a while, and at this moment, he suddenly heard a thunderous sound!
He was very familiar with this voice!
"The sound made by a giant dragon flying at high speed!"
Marvin understood what was going on, so he folded his wings, lowered his flying altitude, and landed on the top of a mountain.
In the distant mountains, a dark shadow is approaching rapidly!
"Life is full of encounters..."
Marvin, who transformed into a goshawk, sneered.
Black Dragon Ikalina.
Still alone.
In this situation, it would not be Marvin’s style not to take action!
The goshawk watched the black dragon fly across the border and fly into the desert.
"She seems to know the location of the ancient well?"
Marvin followed without hesitation.
Of course, the flying speed of the goshawk could not catch up with the dragon, but Marvin's perception was still very strong. The dragon did not conceal its breath along the way. Marvin followed the traces of Ikalina and returned to the depths of the desert.
…
Another fifteen minutes passed before Marvin caught up with Ikalina.
Sure enough, the choice of following the black dragon was very correct, because an abnormal area appeared in the desert ahead.
The black dragon was flapping its wings vigorously, and a large amount of quicksand was blown away by the strong wind. For a moment, the sky was full of wind and sand.
The area gradually revealed its original appearance that was covered by wind and sand.
This is a huge pothole!
From the perspective of the dragons, it could perhaps barely be called a well.
Legend has it that in ancient times, before this well dried up, it was the drinking place for young blue dragons.
The water in the well contains the wisdom of enlightenment, which can help young blue dragons mature mentally quickly.
But now, the huge pit is buried by wind and sand, with a faint light sprinkled on it. The pit is pitch black and is not filled with wind and sand.
Marvin could vaguely feel some powerful force in this huge pit.
“Is it really in this well?”
Marvin looked at the huge pit, which seemed like the bloody mouth of a wild beast. It made him feel frightened and he felt a little hesitant.
However, at this moment, a terrifying sense of crisis locked him.
He flapped his wings without hesitation and flew out like a swift shadow.
call!
A breath of hot dragon passed by Marvin!
Since when, the black dragon has been targeting him!
"I flew from the south to the north, and I didn't see any goshawks in the Nightmare Realm."
"Morgana, you always like to play some useless tricks..."
Ikalina sneered at Marvin and said, "If you want to compete with me for the crystal statue, consider your own strength first."
Morgana?
Marvin was stunned. Ikalina actually thought he was a green dragon?
What's going on?
However, since he was discovered by the other party, Marvin was not afraid.
Anyway, there are no other five-colored dragons nearby, just an ancient black dragon. Marvin is not afraid of a one-on-one fight!
The number of black dragons that died at Marvin's hands can already be counted in teams!
The next second, Marvin silently recited the spell to cancel the transformation and turned into a human form.
Ikalina's eyes became obviously surprised.
Marvin landed on the sand dune and without saying a word, ran straight to the ancient well!
The black dragon roared and pounced down without saying a word.
Ma Wen sneered in his heart, I’m not afraid of you coming down, I’m just afraid of you flying in the sky!
Silently sensing the terrifying breath of the black dragon behind him, the next second, Marvin suddenly turned around!
The night is eternal!
Under the bonus of the powerful shadow field of the Lord of Darkness, the nearby desert was instantly plunged into night!
The black dragon then realized something was wrong, but the giant dragon was moving so fast that it was too late to save its strength.
Night Song Realm!
Marvin's figure instantly appeared on the black dragon's head.
"In fact, for Izakka's sake, I should spare your life."
"After all, it seems that there are only two of you left in Fenan Black Dragon. If I kill you, it would be a bit inhumane. However..."
"Everyone who wanted to plot against me is already dead!"
The weeping sky suddenly appeared, and Marvin stabbed it ferociously!
The black dragon's neck suddenly raised up, and at this moment of life and death, she actually stimulated her most terrifying potential.
The black dragon's wings were spread to the extreme, and all its scales shrank into one piece along its body!
The next second, her entire huge body made a terrifying 180-degree turn!
The huge dragon body fell madly.
The sudden change caused Marvin's attack to deviate.
The weeping sky rubbed the dragon's head and poked it down, rubbing off some of her scales tightly!
Marvin himself forced himself to balance his body.
The black dragon suddenly twisted its neck and spurted out a breath of dragon's breath regardless of everything!
The dragon breath that was brewed temporarily was naturally not as strong as the one that had been accumulated for a long time.
But if hit by such a blow, even a powerful legendary barbarian would be reduced to ashes!
Naturally, Ma Wen didn't dare to resist.
Although he cannot fly, with the help of Eternal Night and Night Song, he can appear freely in every corner of this space!
He dodged directly.
The dragon's breath sprayed directly onto the black dragon's body. The dazzling scales emitted a burnt smell, and some parts were even crystallized!
However, no matter what, Ikalina finally escaped.
Her mind was filled with fear!
If she hadn't dodged Marvin's shot just now, she would probably have been dead!
At that moment, she twisted her body forcefully again, trying to escape from this dark area!
She also noticed that this area shrouded in darkness seemed to be Marvin's home turf, not to mention, he also had the Dragon Slaying Spear!
The black dragon flies at an astonishing speed!
Marvin kept disappearing and reappearing in the night, chasing at almost teleporting speed.
However, the black dragon's desire to survive was so terrifying that she burst out with great life potential and was about to fly out of the area shrouded in eternal darkness.
Marvin also didn't expect that Ikalina's strength was even stronger than Izaka's.
She is almost the strongest among the Fenan Black Dragon clan.
Marvin thought that not many dragons could dodge the sudden shot just now!
“What a pity!”
Marvin frowned.
If we let the black dragon escape like this, not only will we waste our skills, but it will also cause endless trouble!
But he did lack the means to pursue.
The Dark Night Lord has strong explosive power, but if the Black Dragon insists on escaping, Marvin will not be able to catch up.
However, with the attitude of trying his best, Marvin is still trying his best.
The next second, the black dragon was about to fly out of the night area.
Suddenly, her body seemed to hit a wall, her head twisted, and she almost stumbled and fell !
This inexplicable move gave Marvin an opportunity.
Although I don’t know what exactly happened, it’s right to kill him!
The Night Song Realm was activated again, and Marvin's feet seemed to be sucked onto the black dragon's back.
A powerful force automatically erupted from within the Dragon Slaying Spear, directly locking onto the black dragon's heart!
This is the horror of the weeping sky.
This gun itself has a terrible hatred for the dragon, which can directly assist Marvin in completing precise kills!
roar!
The black dragon's unwilling roar echoed in the sky.
The next moment, the sharp tip of the gun pierced through the cold scales and stabbed into the black dragon's heart.
Her whole body fell to the ground in a mess. She struggled twice in her death throes, and the light in her amber eyes gradually dimmed.
Marvin stood on the dragon's back and exhaled.
The battle just now seemed very short, but it actually consumed nearly 70% of his physical strength.
Even though I have killed Ikalina as I wished, I still can't relax.
Because there are other people here.
Marvin silently pulled out the Weeping Sky, not even daring to look at the data panel, and looked around calmly:
"Come out, Morgana."
"I know you're not afraid of me."
