Headshot Wizard - Chapter 223

Chapter 223 The Forgotten Country

The distant coast was getting closer and closer, and Lance opened his eagle eyes, and could vaguely see the edge of the coast, which was a large expanse of black forest.

The Ship of the Dead gradually approached, keeping a certain distance from the coastline, and moving slowly.

Not long after, a dilapidated port appeared in front of them.

The old ghost mastered the ghost ship and sailed into the deserted port quietly.

Lance noticed that, like the Lost Wharf, the extension of this port also had a tall wooden pole with a similar lantern hung on it.

As the ship approached slowly, Lance could see the edge of the dilapidated port, and a huge stone monument was erected.

On the stele is written in bright red font: [Sanchester. Port No. 1]

“Sanchester, that’s the name of this demiplane. There should be nothing wrong.” Dora said, holding the ship’s side.

Lance nodded.

They put down the boarding board, and then got off the ghost ship.

Lance got off the boat last, and he shook the thin silver thread in his hand, finally releasing the spirits of the two children.

After the little boy’s ghost was released, he almost immediately wanted to rush to trouble Lance, but was effectively stopped by the old ghost.

He looked at Lance and asked, “My urn…can you return it to me?”

Lance took out the urn and asked, “If I return it to you, you may not let us leave smoothly.”

The other four wizards, hearing Lance’s words, immediately took out their staff.

The atmosphere on both sides immediately became stagnant.

The old ghost said helplessly: “I can’t leave this ghost ship, and so are these two children. You don’t have to worry about us being malicious to you. What’s more, you still have a rune engraved with the soul imprint in your hand, this thing. My son has a great suppression of our strength.”

Lance thought for a while and motioned everyone to leave first: “You go to the forest and wait for me, I’ll catch up immediately.”

The other people hesitated for a while, and still chose to trust Lance. They all asked Lance to be careful, and they walked inland quickly.

Wait until the other four have walked far, even after reaching the edge of the forest. Lance suddenly picked up the urn and ran all the way inland.

“I’m going to kill him!”

Seeing this scene, the little boy in blue said angrily.

He ignored the old man’s persuasion and jumped out of the boat.

However, in an instant, his body was like a soldering iron falling into the water, making a prickling sound. He knelt on the dock in pain.

“Come back…” The old man sighed, “We are already part of this ship, no matter what, we can’t escape this fate.”

The little boy stood up in pain, unwillingly watching Lance’s back all the way, and finally returned to the boat with the help of the old man.

“I’m sorry…” the little girl made a timid voice.

“It’s okay.” The old ghost said calmly: “My existence has no meaning at all. Just destroy it, maybe it’s a good end.”

At this moment, a black shadow suddenly flew from a distance.

Whoosh!

The sharp arrow was nailed fiercely to the wooden board of the cabin. At the end of the bow and arrow, there was also a light urn hung.

The old ghost looked into the depths of the dock in amazement.

Lance smiled faintly at them, then turned and ran away.

“What a maverick…” The old ghost walked over and put away his ashes.

He touched the little girl’s head and said, “Next time, I will hide it where you can’t find it.”

The little girl bit her lip and suddenly began to cry.

The old ghost rubbed her head: “Don’t cry, let’s go.”

“Where are we going?” The girl gradually reduced her cry and asked in a low voice.

“The endless river of planes, there is always one that will be our destination.”

The old man controlled the boat of the dead and slowly drove away from the port.

The black sails tilted slightly, and in a short while, the ship disappeared into the vast sea of darkness.

…

At the edge of the Black Forest, Lance’s figure rushed towards him.

“Let’s go!” Lance said.

The other four nodded one after another, and quickly stepped into the forest.

Although they were curious about whether Lance returned the urn to Lao You’s inspiration, none of this was the key.

At this moment, they have stepped on the semi-plane Sanchester, and it is possible to reach Siwari Castle at any time. The goal of their adventure is for the wealth and resources in Siwari Castle. Compared with other things, they are not so important.

“This black forest is not mentioned in the book of revelation.”

As a group of people walked in the forest, Dora opened his mouth and said: “However, because of the power of order, the edge of this demiplane usually grows similar to the black forest, in order to protect ordinary creatures from the dark sea. .”

“That’s true.” Lance responded: “It stands to reason that we can reach the center of Sanchester as long as we cross this black forest. As a semi-plane, its area should not be too vast.”

“I want to know the exact location of the castle.” Valerie said: “Otherwise, even if the geography of the semiplane is not very vast, it would be too laborious to search like a needle in a haystack.”

“I have a rose tree badge that can sense the location of the castle.” Dora explained: “Once we get close to the castle of Sivare, the rose tree badge will remind me of the specific location to deal with.”

“This is the only good news I heard during this adventure.” Landry murmured.

…

Time passed by little by little. The trees on both sides of the forest are going backwards.

After the initial investigation and judgment, Lance discovered that this forest was just an ordinary forest with few living things, even if there were some ordinary plants and animals.

For them and wizards, even the most powerful creatures in this forest, such as tigers and jackals, can be ignored.

So they quickly increased the speed of advancement.

Lance volunteered to rush to the forefront. The sub-chip Hawkeye and the black bat have made Lance’s detection ability reach a perverted level, far exceeding the level generally possessed by wizards in this world.

In his right eye, a main screen reflects the route ahead. The small screen in the upper right corner is divided into two grids. The top grid is composed of light green lines and is a three-dimensional model of the terrain ahead; while the bottom grid is Shows the road conditions and surrounding environment of the places that have been walked. The powerful capabilities of these two auxiliary chips allow Lance to run forward unscrupulously.

There are more or less auras haunting every wizard’s body. These state spells can increase the speed of their advancement.

The halo on Lance was the least, with only a light green swift wind.

But even so, it was already very difficult for Landry and others who had been following him.

“This guy… I’ve seen him run so fast before. It’s so hard to follow him.”

Dora gritted her teeth, struggling to keep up.

Among the dark spells she practiced, there are many spells that bless her own state. And a kind of combat stamina she cultivated can also greatly increase agility, but even so, it is very difficult to keep up with Lance’s footsteps.

What made Dora feel even more depressed was that Lance was able to lead them all the way madly when he was obviously not doing his best; if he ran at full speed, people like him would probably be dumped in an instant!

“Such physical quality… is not something ordinary humans can possess. Mr. Lance is indeed the strongest among us.”

Sacra followed behind, and there was a glimmer of admiration in his eyes.

As for Landry and Valerie, they didn’t have the energy to think about them. If they want to keep up with Lance’s speed, they use their full strength, and if they relax a little bit of distraction, they may fall behind.

“I can’t make a fool of myself!” Valerie gritted her teeth and ran sullenly.

Landry ran desperately with similar ideas.

This run took more than an hour.

When Lance’s figure suddenly stopped, the four wizards behind him immediately seemed to be relieved, one by one on their knees panting.

Among them, Landry was the most exaggerated, just sitting down.

He yelled as he sat, “No, no…If I run like this, I will be exhausted before I get out of the forest. Lance, you, did you mean it?”

Seeing Landry sitting down, Valerie, who was still forcibly supporting her, immediately leaned her back against the tree, concealing her weakness. She is a very strong person, and she doesn’t want to show her weakness on any occasion.

Lance turned around and saw the embarrassed look of the four of them, only then did he realize that he was running a bit faster.

He smiled awkwardly: “Sorry… I didn’t pay attention for a while… I think you can keep following, so I can’t help but run faster.”

The four of them rolled their eyes at once.

Please, this is called running faster? This is a desperate rush!

Everyone complained in their hearts.

But when they saw Lance standing there calmly, without a drop of sweat on his smooth forehead, they could only bury these words in their stomachs.

“This guy is a monster, you can’t measure him by ordinary people’s standards.” They can only comfort themselves.

Regarding this topic, even Sacra, who has always been silent, said: “I think, next time, you can slow down.”

“If we continue to run like this, if we encounter an enemy, we won’t even have the energy to cast spells.”

Lance smiled: “There is no next time, haven’t you seen it yet?”

After that, he pointed forward.

Everyone was taken aback. They had been gritting their teeth before and rushing along with Lance, but they didn’t have the energy to pay attention to the situation around them.

They looked around, only to find in amazement that under Lance’s leadership, they had already run to the edge of the Black Forest.

Looking in the direction pointed by Lance’s fingers, the scenery outside the forest was unobstructed.

It was a vast and fertile land. The stream snaked between acres of fertile fields. The smell of green grass mixed with the smell of muddy soil floated from far away. Several figures were working in the fields; and on the eastern grasslands, The beautiful windmills slowly rotate, and next to the windmills are tall bakeries. Although they are far apart, they seem to be able to smell the scent of wheat.

“Where is this…?” For a long time, Dora could not help but suppress the shocked emotions.

“Obviously, this is a forgotten country.” Lance pointed to the boundary monument on the edge of the forest and said:

“[Sovaha], in the ancient Analects, this means [Forgotten Kingdom].”
