Chapter 140

After the storm, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse. The Nariel Mountains of Magical Beasts and the Dikas City were shrouded in the white moonlight.

That night, except for a small number of people who stayed on the city wall to defend themselves, the others all went back to rest. After a day’s battle, both physically and mentally, everyone had reached extreme exhaustion.

In the practice room.

“Whoosh!”

Locke slowly opened his eyes and finished practice.

After a night’s recovery, most of the divine energy in his body had been restored. What made him happier was that after the battle with the evil ape, the previous situation had been eased, and the small universe seemed to have a sign of wanting a breakthrough.

She might be able to get a breakthrough in a few days. After all, a breakthrough was not an easy thing. Most of the time, it seemed okay, but maybe it would be stuck in a certain state for several months, so he was not one hundred percent sure that he could get a breakthrough in a few days. So he decided to do something more important now.

Locke stood up and walked out of the practice room. He took a deep breath, jumped up and came to the roof of the practice room.

The practice room was located on the highest building in the city. Standing here, one could see the whole city.

Under the moonlight, all the buildings seemed to be covered with a layer of white gauze. The shadows of the buildings were mixed with the bright moonlight. The light and shadow intertwined, making Dikas City look more like a city in fairy tales.

No one would have thought that the city was still in danger during the day.

With these thoughts in his mind, Locke jumped up again and gently landed on the roof of another building. When he jumped towards the city wall, he could only see a black figure rapidly moving on the roof of a building in Dikas city.

After meeting these two men in black robes, he was more and more worried about the safety of Badal, so he planned to go to the Nariel Mountains of Magical Beasts alone to investigate.

Of course, he was not a reckless person. Although there were two mysterious men in black robes in the Nariel Mountains of Magical Beasts, with the help of divine consciousness, he could find them as long as they took any action, so he had the ability to protect himself.

However, one minute later, Locke had to stop.

Looking at the tall figure in front of her, Locke smiled awkwardly. “You… You are still awake.”

The tall man didn’t answer Locke’s question. Instead, she glanced at Locke and asked slowly, “Where do you want to go?”

“I’m bored, so I’m going to take a walk in the Nariel Mountains of Magical Beasts.” Being stared at by Judith, Locke felt a little guilty.

However, Judith seemed to have already seen through Locke’s mind. She reminded him lightly, “Locke, although you can defeat the level-5 magical beast, according to the information from the academy, there is still a stronger existence in the Nariel Mountains of Magical Beasts.”

“The news that we have been trapped in the Dikas City has been received by the Naton City and the Scilar Magic Academy. What we need to do now is to guard Dikas City and wait for the support of the outside world.”

Locke took a step closer to Judith slowly and stared at Judith’s eyes. With an evil smile on his face, he asked, “Are you worried about me?”

Because of the lesson from last time, Judith was more careful this time. After confirming her safety, she took a step back secretly. Looking at Locke’s cynical face, she said coldly, “I’m just afraid that you will die outside. I can’t explain it to the Dean.”

Locke moved closer to Judith and asked with a snicker, “Really?”

He found it interesting to tease Judith.

The two were on the roof. There was not much room for Judith to retreat. As Locke approached, there was no room for her to retreat.

At such a close distance, she felt a masculine aura rushing towards her.

Seeing the embarrassing look on Judith’s face, Locke smiled slightly, as if he had succeeded in playing a trick on her.

Noticing the snicker on Locke’s face, Judith realized something. She was fooled by Locke again! Her face turned colder. She gathered the magic energy in front of her and was about to kick Locke down from the roof.

“Ha-ha, I’m leaving now. This beautiful lady, enjoy the moonlight by yourself.”

Before Judith could condense the magic, Locke turned around and ran towards the city wall in a few flashes.

Looking in the direction of Locke, Judith gritted her teeth and let out a cold snort. However, when she looked at the disappearing figure of Locke, there was still a flash of visible worry in her eyes.

Most of the people had gone back to rest, and the guards on the city wall were not highly vigilant, so it was easy for Locke to find a place without anyone around. He jumped down from the city wall, hid his aura, and then ran towards the Nariel Mountains of Magical Beasts.

Early in the morning, the morning mist in the Nariel Mountains of Magical Beasts hadn’t dissipated. The warm sunshine shone on the mountains, making the Nariel Mountains of Magical Beasts look full of vitality.

However, only Locke knew that it was just an illusion. If you entered the forest of the magical beast mountain, you could find the corpses of magical beasts everywhere. Obviously, the magical beast fought again after they left Dikas City and returned to the Nariel Mountains of Magical Beasts.

Locke stood up and continued to run deep into the Nariel Mountains of Magical Beasts. His figure quickly passed through the dense forest. Last night, he left the city. After two hours’ journey in the jungle, he continued to recover the divine force in his body. At present, the strength in his body had almost recovered.

It was the second day that Locke entered the Nariel Mountains of Magical Beasts.

Locke stood on a dry tree trunk and looked into the distance with a serious face.

In front of him, the ancient trees had completely withered, and corpses of magical beasts were everywhere on the ground. In the distance was a peak inserted into the sky. This lifeless mountain was the residence of Badal.

After a while, the divine consciousness worked and Locke looked weird. In the north, he felt strange energy that caused the riot of the Nariel Mountains of Magical Beasts. It seemed to come from that place.

Moreover, the energy was so magical that it could isolate Locke’s divine consciousness so that Locke couldn’t detect anything in it.

After confirming that there were no other creatures around, Locke gently walked in the direction of the energy.

Half an hour later, Locke finally arrived at the place not far from the energy.

Through the gaps between the leaves, a huge energy windstorm in the shape of a tornado could be seen faintly.

What was this?

Suppressing the surprise in his heart, Locke continued to move forward.

When he saw the energy windstorm, even Locke felt that he was in a good mood and was shocked.

There was a magic array about 50 meters wide in front of them.

The magic array was extremely complicated. In the middle of the magic array was a huge dark brown star, which was filled with mysterious and complicated runes. These runes were emitting dim light.

In the center of the star, there was a mass of black energy floating, which was the center of the energy windstorm.

From the magic array, Locke felt an extremely dark aura. No, it should be evil, which was even eviler than the dark mage he had met before.

With the magic array as the core, a mysterious power spread out. It was the power that caused the riot of magical beasts in the Nariel Mountains of Magical Beasts.

“What the hell is this?” Looking at the magic array, Locke was confused. He had never seen such a magic array before. But he was sure that it was not something good.

Moreover, when he saw the magic array, he also found that the auras of the two mysterious people were very similar to that of the magic array.

After finding that, Locke became more cautious. It was very likely that these two mysterious people might be nearby.

When he was observing the magic array, he suddenly found a special thing, a powerful force of blood vitality. The blood vitality continuously entered the magic array from the left.

Confused, Locke fumbled in the direction of the blood vitality.

Two minutes later, Locke took a deep breath again.

There was still a magic array in front of him, in which lay a dying giant figure.
