Chapter 69: Soul Stealing Skull

"Snake Hand" Sharman and his servant "Spirit Soul" Canikwe spent a day and night in the Ogre Castle in the Deep Forest Valley. After repeated discussions with Shrek, they finally determined the battle plan for the joint attack on the village of Povatan.
On the last day of February 1620, "Snake Hand" Sharman led the withered corps to advance, marching towards the Aragon Valley where the Povatan Village is located, and deliberately destroying trees and looting local elves, Fairies and even human beings, bad news and letters of distress flew to Powhatan village like flakes.
Since Magni’s investigation team returned from the north of the Eifen River, the Victor and Matoka had foreseen that the Efen River could not stop the spread of
black wilt
, and the conquering sect would one day extend the claws to the river. South bank. In order to deal with the coming crisis, the couple strengthened the security forces around the valley, and also planned to reorganize the reconnaissance team, and Matoka personally led the team to cross the river again to the northern reconnaissance. However, they did not expect the enemy to move so quickly. The plan for the second cross-river reconnaissance had not yet been launched, and the withered army of troops had already approached the outskirts of the Algonquin Valley.
Receiving bad news from the jungle, Victor Kalinin immediately used natural magic to summon a group of raven allies and ordered them to investigate at low altitude and track the dynamics of the withered monster. At the same time, Matoka summoned all the elite warriors of the clan. A total of 2,000 Asa hunters who were good at woodland operations prepared the crossbows and war horses to be ready to go.
Victor’s raven scout quickly locked down the enemy’s trail and brought back more detailed information for the master: the total number of withered monsters was not less than 500, and the commander was a fallen man who cast a spell to destroy a large tree every day. Druid.
According to the description of the ravens, Victor and Matoka are convinced that the culprit that manipulates the large group of withered monsters is the "wither" Magni talked about-a cultist from the "Harrow Forest".
The couple Victor and Matoka, one is a druid and the other is a ranger, worshiping the origin of nature is their common belief, and maintaining the natural ecology is their common duty, and the behavior of the "wither" is in their The antithesis of "can't be dissident". What's more, the withered legion not only destroyed the jungle vegetation, but also ruthlessly killed the animals and residents living in the forest, leaving a lifeless ruin where they passed, which has already constituted a great living space for the Algonquin tribe Threat. Whether for the purpose of defending their faith or defending their homeland, the couple could not tolerate the brutal acts of the "wither" and their accomplices. On the morning of March 1, he led the Assa hunter to set off and pursued the "withering" under the guidance of the crow corps".
Magni Bovatan wanted to go out with his parents to revenge for the tribes who sacrificed in the northern jungle. However, Matoka considered that there must be someone in the family, and Kandy was still young, so he arranged his eldest son to stay. Magni had no reason to refuse and had to stay in the village of Povatan reluctantly.
Joan has been in the village of Povatan for a week. In this isolated, peaceful and happy village, life seems to be going particularly fast. These days, the Povatan family completely treats him as his own family, making Joan feel the lack of affection from his childhood in this warm family. At the same time, he also learned a lot of valuable knowledge from Kandy’s parents and brothers, including the natural world. The mysteries of animals, plants and insects also include how to set up hunting traps and even identify poisonous mushrooms.
The living in the residence is of course pleasant, and Joan did not delay studying magic. Although Victor Kalinin is a divine spellcaster, his profound knowledge is not limited to flowers, birds, insects and fish, but also can provide Joan with some useful guidance in arcane. After all, different types of magic are essentially connected. Many arcane spells have similar versions of magic, and vice versa. Under the guidance of this high-level druid, Joan has improved rapidly this time, and has a deeper understanding of the spells he has mastered. The two difficult spells of "Magic Missile" and "Magic Armament" are also difficult. basic understanding.
Joan found out that he had another quirk recently. Whenever a new spell is obtained, it will always enter a state of extreme excitement, and I have to sleep and study hard. However, once I master these spells, there is no new spell to learn, and the emotion will be reversed 180 degrees. The empty, inexplicable anxiety, fidgeting, seemed to be able to feel that time was passing by in minute and second, and the second second did not become better than the previous second. Joan knew that life was short, and the guilt of wasting life forced him to eagerly learn new knowledge-better than arcane knowledge.
Driven by this growing tension, Joan naturally remembered his original intention to come to the village of Pohuatan and asked Conti's elder brother Magni about the "mythical ogre".
"'Mythical Ogre' Shrek is the Lord of the Ogre Clan in the Deep Forest Valley and is said to rule thousands of ogres. In addition, more goblins, half-orcs, and jungle gnome are forced to serve him, Joan, if I am you, and I dare not dare to fight the idea of ​​the'wise king'." Magni said with a wry smile.
Hearing his words, Joan was half cold. Judging from Magni's description, he is not currently qualified to use Shrek as a trial target. With his current strength, he encounters a common ogre in front of him, but he is more fierce, not to mention a mythical ogre lord with many guards around him.
Since the challenge to the mythical ogres is still out of reach, and no other mythical creatures have ever been heard near the village of Pohuatan, Joan was in a low mood and felt that there was no need to stay in Pohuatan. In the face of the Poovatans who loved him as a son, Joan tried to confess his speech several times, but when he finally found the courage, the bad news of the withered monster made the whole tribe nervous. . At this juncture, Joan cannot even say goodbye, otherwise, does it appear that he deliberately ran away before the war between the Algonquin tribe and the invaders? It is too conscienceless.
On the same morning that Victor and Matoka led the two thousand Asa Warriors away from the Valley, Joan asked Conti in private if he could help.
"My parents led the team to track down the cultists. Magni was responsible for the daily affairs of the tribe. This guy is both sloppy and impatient. I have to help him manage paperwork such as accounts. You go first I walked around the woods, read books, and went to you when I was busy with these boring trivia.
Kandy said helplessly.
Joan saw that Kandy was really busy, and he really didn't understand affairs such as accounting, even if staying by her side could not help, but caused her trouble. So he accepted Kandy's suggestion and took two books to spend time alone in the woods.
The ash forest is the root of the "Holy Tree" Ilminsur in the village of Pohuatan. There are always two sentries on duty at the entrance to the forest. In addition, a patrol team patrols inside the forest. Since the patriarch and his wife took away two thousand cavalry for the pursuit of the "Blight Corps", the troops of the left tribe appeared to be stretched, and Magni had to allocate half of the guards guarding the Mori Forest to the city. After all, the Mori Forest was located inside the village , There is usually no danger.
However, Magni did not expect that this time the personnel transfer inadvertently buried a big hidden danger. At the same time that Viktor and Matoka led the main Asa forces to pursue the "Blight Corps", the servant of the "Snake Hand" Shaman "Stolen Soul" Canikyu sneaked in under the cover of the morning mist and the jungle The village of Povatan performs the task delivered by Shaman-searching for "Ilmin Sur".
The small sperm creature "Soul Stealer" is not well-known for its combat power. Chanikwe dared to sneak into the village of Pohuatan alone, relying on agile skill, cunning mind and unique supernatural power. When Canikwe dived into the village of Pohuatan, he did not continue to search for a target. He specially picked a more remote area and climbed up a tree to lurk, waiting patiently for the prey to come to the door.
Soul-stealing waited in vain, and finally a single villager walked under the tree he hid. The Soul Stealer crouched on the tree, reached out to the waist silently, and pulled out a pale fairy skull, struggling towards the unsuspecting passer-by with his back.
The small skull is as big as an apple, and with the power of soul stealers, even throwing the skull with all his strength will at most hit a big bag on the other party's head. However, this skull filled with evil magic is not just a throwing weapon, the moment of hitting a passerby is tightly attached to his back, like a powerful suction cup.
The Assa youth who was hit by the skull was taken aback at first, and looked back blankly, and when his eyes came in contact with Canikwe, his eyes immediately became dull, like a puppet standing on the spot.
"Great, from now on you have to obey my orders." Chanikwe whispered with a sinister smile on his face. The fairy skull refined by him has the power to dominate the human heart. If he is hit by this evil skull, it is like hitting 5 rings of magic "dominate humanity". Unless the recruiter has super willpower, it will immediately The loss of self-consciousness and unconditional obedience to Canikwe’s commands is like the notoriety of a soul-stealing puppet who has lost its soul and listened to the manipulation of this evil goblin.
Caniqui hooked his finger, summoned the puppet that fell into his grasp, and asked him if he knew where Ilmin Sur grew up. The other party nodded without hesitation. Canikwe smiled with satisfaction, and then issued the order: "Take me to Ilminsur, try to avoid others."
The sullen Asa youth turned around and took a slightly stiff footstep to walk quickly in the direction of the ash forest.
Chanikwe did not hurry to follow up. He first took out a small packet of brown-yellow powder from the waist pouch and sprinkled it evenly on his body. The skin quickly became transparent, and the whole person disappeared from head to toe without a trace. Canikwe is very satisfied with the effectiveness of this package of "Wandering Powder". Although the invisibility effect can only last for only 30 minutes, it is enough that he follows his puppet through the streets of people and enters the forest of inaccessible forests. .
