I am the only one who practices magic: I practice magic in the city

Chapter 146: The Mother of Life and the Reincarnation of the Common Ancestor (Two chapters in one)

Towering oak and pine trees soar into the sky, their branches and leaves interweaving into a sea of ​​​​emerald green, blocking most of the sunlight, leaving only mottled light and shadows on the ground.

Occasionally, a squirrel would quickly climb up the tree trunk, and the sound of birds singing could be heard from among the branches. I looked up, but couldn't see where these chirping little creatures were.

"It's definitely impossible to drive through here, but luckily I'm driving a motorcycle this time. If I can't get through, I can just put the car into the Boundless Messenger and take the motorcycle out after I get through."

Fang Yu patted the KTM Rally 450 beside him, and the motorcycle gradually turned into a shadow and then disappeared.

He had just asked Fang Daqiang for this car this morning.

Fang Daqiang is an old player who plays everything. Until last year, he had participated in several consecutive Halashan Heroes Conferences.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday last year, after Fang Yu and his father swept Chen Wanyu’s grave, Fang Daqiang left his son behind and went directly to Halasan.

At that time, Fang Yu wanted to attend the heroes' meeting with Fang Daqiang, but Fang Daqiang's face changed and he refused to do so no matter what.

This bike was bought by Fang Daqiang two years ago when he had a brief interest in off-road motorcycles. It is a professional model that he had participated in the Dakar Rally. He spent more than 200,000 yuan on it.

Fang Yu guessed that his love for pretending and showing off must have been inherited from Fang Daqiang's genes.

The air in the forest is very fresh. The rich negative ions mixed with the fragrance of soil and leaves give people the illusion that the body is being purified from the inside out.

The sunlight shines through the gaps between the leaves and falls on the ground, forming beams of light that look like angel wings.

After passing through this forest and flying over the Pullman Mountains, you will reach Russen.

It only switched three times, and the speed was still quite fast.

Looking at the time in the sea of ​​consciousness, there were still forty minutes before switching back to Blue Star. Fang Yu did not hesitate at all. He knocked his feet and a pair of transparent wings appeared on his back, carrying Fang Yu into the air.

After opening the arcane map and confirming the direction, Fang Yu used all his strength to activate the flying technique on his wings and flew towards Lusen.

The magic power in Fang Yu's body now exceeds 40 units, which is enough to support him flying for half an hour.

According to Youzi, there is also a Sibed Arcane Aircraft Company in the Lorraine Tower, but it does not seem to be open under the level 20 authority. You need to upgrade the authority to level or above and enter the second floor of the Lorraine Tower before you can go to the Sibed Arcane Aircraft Company.

Fang Yu's flying altitude was not very high, only about one hundred meters. The trees here were mainly red pine, spruce and beech, and the tallest was no more than fifty or sixty meters.

After flying for more than twenty minutes, Fang Yu finally saw the edge of a forest in the distance.

"Master! Be careful! Up there!"

In Fang Yu's backpack, Yuzi suddenly issued an alarm, and Fang Yu asked it to release a detection alert every hour.

Fang Yu paused and quickly descended more than 20 meters.

"Whoosh!" A gust of wind swept over Fang Yu's head, and the air waves made the Will III type invisibility cloak on Fang Yu's body flutter.

"What the hell! What is this!?"

A brown-yellow monster that was at least three meters tall and over fifteen meters long when its wings were spread was staring at him hungrily from a hundred meters away.

The reason why it is called a monster is because Fang Yu has never seen this thing before!
It clearly has wings, feathers on the wings, and a bird's head, but apart from these, why does its body have all the characteristics of mammals?
Sharp claws, a long swinging tail, and brown hair.

No matter how you look at it, it's a lion with a bird's head and wings.

"Yuzu, what is this?" Fang Yu looked up at the monster still hovering in the sky.

"Master, I don't know, but I can be sure that in the Age of the Great Arcana, such creatures did not exist!" Yuzu said with certainty and determination.

Damn, a new species can evolve in 16,000 years?

Isn't this how evolution works?

It looks like a patchwork monster no matter how you look at it.

"Kreeeegrrrrrrrr!" The monster in the sky stared at Fang Yu and let out a long roar, flapped its wings twice, and swooped down.

It's too fast!
In less than a second, Fang Yu, who was looking up, seemed to see the contempt and ridicule in the monster's eyes.

Weak human!
Fang Yu had already added an arcane armor to himself, and without thinking, he fired an arcane missile at the monster.

The monster was still extremely agile even at high speed, and with just a slight dodge, it dodged all six arcane missiles.

"Magic energy explodes!" Fang Yu's eyes flashed. No matter how fast you are, can you be faster than light?
A violent ray of light shot out from Fang Yu's fingertips and accurately hit the aerial monster.

"KreeeeeRRR!"

"Pah, pah, pah~" the monster roared, and the blue energy of the magic explosion flashed on its body a few times, and then with a snap, it disappeared.

The spell failed?
This was the first time Fang Yu failed in casting a spell since he mastered the arcane arts.

The monster roared angrily and rushed towards Fang Yu again.

Fang Yu couldn't help but regret why he didn't carry Wilder's Doting with him, but put it into the Boundless Messenger.

It takes at least three seconds for the Boundless Messenger to get something out. With this monster's speed, there is no spare three seconds at all.

Fang Yu's eyes flashed, and his figure fell rapidly again, landing directly in the woods.

The monster also twisted its body and continued to pounce down from the air.

Fuck! It’s too fast. I can’t dodge it!

Weak human, you actually hurt me! It doesn't matter, I will take you back to the nest, tear you into strips, dry them and give them to my two children who are less than one year old as snacks!
Seeing that it was only four or five meters away and could kill with one claw this human who dared to invade its territory, the monster couldn't help but reveal excitement and cruelty in its eyes.

Huh? Why does this human look different? What is that long thing he's holding? Where did it come from?

"puff!"

"Kree!!!!!!"

A sharp pain came from the monster's chest. The monster looked down and saw that a sharp iron rod as thick as a bowl had pierced his body.

The tip of the iron rod even pierced through its back!

The monster felt that its heart seemed to have been pierced and its vitality was rapidly draining away. It flapped its wings weakly twice and was skewered on the iron rod.

"Bang!" The iron rod with a diameter of ten centimeters and a length of four meters fell to the ground, splashing fallen leaves and soil.

Fang Yu let out a sigh of relief.

"Damn it, you wasted my switching opportunity!" Fang Yu kicked the dying monster angrily.

Just now, in a hurry, he made a prompt decision and initiated the switch in advance.

After returning to Haixi, he began to think about how to kill this monster.

The monster was too close to him. Even if he was holding Wilder's Dote when he switched, the monster took less than half a second to pounce on him at a distance of four or five meters, and he had no time to cast a spell.

One plan is to use Wilde's doting to add four rings of arcane armor to yourself in advance, but who can guarantee that this thing that even Yuzu has never seen can't break the defense of the arcane armor?
Finally, Fang Yu came up with an idea. He went to the steel pipe factory and ordered a four-meter-long, 10-centimeter-diameter iron rod with sharpened ends. The monster was no more than five meters away from him. He didn't believe that at such a fast speed, it would be able to react at a distance of one meter.
After getting the milled iron rod, Fang Yu picked a sunny day and found a small forest. He used Wilde's Doting to cast a sharpening spell on the iron rod, added a wounding spell, and then adjusted the posture before starting the switch.

Sure enough, when everything was switched back, this stupid monster couldn't react at all, and rushed straight into the four-meter-long iron rod, turning itself into a skewer.

Fang Yu took out the rope and tied the monster into a shameful shape. He then used a "life-sustaining technique" on the monster to prevent it from dying immediately. Then he pulled the iron rod out of the monster's body.

It's actually a female?

"Who on earth are you?" Fang Yu's voice came into the ears of the dying monster, and it was surprised to find that it could actually understand the language of the human in front of it.

"I know you can understand what I'm saying. I'm using animal communication now. Tell me, what are you? Where are you from?" Fang Yu stood beside the monster trapped like a dumpling and patted its bird head with his hand.

"I am a weak human. I was captured by you today. This is a shame for me as the king of the sky - the griffin clan. I can only wash away my shame with blood, either the blood of the enemy or my own."

"If I hadn't underestimated you and used my extraordinary abilities, I wouldn't have failed."

"No more talking, just get started." The monster responded with a deep voice.

"You lowly fool, you actually dared to attack my master who is the smartest, greatest, wisest, most compassionate, noblest and most powerful in the entire plane. It is an honor for your Griffin clan that you can die in the hands of my master today!"

Yuzu jumped out of the backpack and flew around the griffin proudly.

"I remember you cursed it much more harshly than it did back then, right?" Fang Yu sneered.

"Ah?" Yuzu played dumb, giving off a guilty light blue sound, "How could I possibly do that? I am your most loyal and trusted servant - Yuzu."

"Stop talking nonsense. Have you really never heard of the Griffin tribe it just mentioned?"

"No." Yuzu said simply.

Fang Yu thought about it, then took out a bottle of first-ring healing potion from the Boundless Messenger and shook it in front of the monster that called itself a griffin.

"You should be able to feel that I have stabilized your injuries. I can heal your injuries and even let you go, but the prerequisite is that you answer my questions honestly."

The griffin closed his eyes and said nothing more.

"Haha. In that case, don't blame me. There is a cave on the cliff 800 meters over there. That should be your nest, right?"

"Let me guess, what's in your lair?"

Fang Yu patted the griffin's hard beak, which was nearly one meter long.

It's marked on the arcane map. There's a pattern of a nest there, and there are two small red dots on the map.

During the three days that Fang Yu was waiting for the custom-made iron rod, he went to the Lorin Tower twice and asked Youzi to use the alchemy laboratory to improve the arcane map and solidify the detection technique on the arcane map.

Originally, Fang Yu just had this idea, but he was not in a hurry to improve the arcane map.

But the griffin's sneak attack gave Fang Yu some sense of urgency.

The smooth journey since he came to the main plane and the fact that he had never encountered any rivals made him even feel that he was invincible in this world. Who would have thought that there would be such a monster?

In fact, this technology existed in the Age of Great Arcane, but the Arcane Union considered it an invasion of privacy and banned it, so the arcane maps that were publicly sold no longer incorporated detection magic.

The technology is already available, and it’s just a matter of modification. For Youzi and Fang Yu, it’s not a problem at all.

The griffin suddenly opened its eyes, and hatred shot out from its pair of bowl-sized bird eyes.

"What do you want to do, you despicable human?"

"Since you won't cooperate, I have no choice but to kill you, and then go to your nest to see if there are other griffins willing to cooperate with me." Fang Yu sneered.

Little guy, I don’t believe you have no weaknesses.

This so-called griffin clan is really strange, otherwise Fang Yu would not have wasted so much time on this monster.

Sixteen thousand years is not enough to evolve a single species. This species is too much like a hybrid species created by some crazy arcane wizards of the School of Life.

But the arcane mages have all disappeared, so who created this population?
The griffin stared at Fang Yu fiercely, but Fang Yu was completely unmoved. He knocked his feet, rose into the air, turned around and flew towards the griffin's nest.

"Stop! Despicable human!" The griffin roared, and blood spurted out of the wound that had been sealed by the life-sustaining spell.

"I agree to your request! Stop, human!" The griffin called out weakly, "What do you want to know?"

Fang Yu slowly landed on the ground: "You said you are called griffins, how did your species come from?"

"Is this what you want to ask? Humans? The Griffin clan is, of course, the people of the great Mother Goddess of Life." The Griffin's voice was low, but revealed a sense of pride.

"Elas, the God of Life?" Fang Yu recalled the information about the gods he had learned from Mercfory. This should be the name, right?

"Don't equate the Great Mother Goddess with false gods like the God of Life!"

"We are the people of the greatest Mother Goddess of Life. The Mother Goddess of Life created our Griffin clan and many extraordinary creatures. She is the common mother and god of all extraordinary creatures."

"Aren't there believers of the great Mother Goddess of Life among you humans? You are also a human transcendent, how come you don't know this common sense?"

The griffin looked at Fang Yu with confusion and anger.

Fang Yu had no intention of explaining or covering up. He thought for a moment and said, "You just said that if you used your extraordinary ability, you would not lose to me. So what is your extraordinary ability?"

The griffin suppressed his anger and said, "Human! The King of the Sky has the ability to control the wind. This is a gift from the Mother Goddess of Life! This is something that all extraordinary creatures know! Is your question an insult to the griffin clan?"

"In other words, this Mother Goddess of Life created you? What's her name?" Fang Yu touched his chin curiously. No one had ever mentioned the Mother Goddess of Life to him by this name before.

"Human! You are blaspheming!" The griffin roared, "The Mother Goddess of Life is the Mother of Life. She is the only one and does not need a name."

There was no point in arguing with a fanatic, so Fang Yu readily agreed: "Okay, then tell me, how did you communicate with the Mother Goddess of Life? How did you know that you were the Mother Goddess of Life's children? Did your parents tell you?"

The griffin glanced at Fang Yu with disdain: "This is the inheritance of blood, lowly human. When we grow up, our blood will tell us everything."

"Bloodline?" Fang Yu touched his chin and thought about it.

"It sounds a bit like the sixth-ring spell, Reincarnation of the Common Ancestor, which has been banned from use by the School of Life." Yuzu muttered nearby.

"Reincarnation of the common ancestor?" Fang Yu frowned, "What is this spell for?"

"It's a spell from before the Age of the Great Arcane. It's a pretty useless spell."

"The function is that when an arcane mage is on the verge of death, he can transfer his soul to the embryo of his direct descendant that has not yet taken shape."

"When this embryo gradually grows up, it will grow normally like other children. However, when this child is fifteen years old and has completed its development, the originally dormant soul will slowly awaken and there is a certain possibility that it will gradually replace the original soul in the child's body. The remaining soul will have the common memories of both souls."

"This spell has a very high chance of failure, and the spell materials are difficult to obtain, so the success rate is less than 10%."

"If you fail, you will be annihilated along with the child's soul, and you won't even be able to return to the astral realm."

"Moreover, this spell cannot truly extend the life of the arcane mage indefinitely. Even if it succeeds, since the soul and body are not completely matched, the arcane mage cannot connect to any magic network node and cannot step into the realm of arcane again."

"After the advent of the Great Arcane Age, the Arcane Ethics Review Committee was established to conduct ethical reviews of all spells."

"Obviously, this kind of spell cannot pass ethical review. Therefore, the Supreme Mage used the eleventh-ring rule spell "Spell Confinement" to completely seal this spell, and no one can reconstruct the spell model of this spell."

"From what this griffin said, it sounds like someone has improved the 'Common Ancestor Reincarnation' so that the griffin species can pass on some abilities and information in their bloodline?"

"Master, you can use Wilder's Doting to cast a fourth-ring identification spell on this griffin. The fourth-ring identification spell can identify extraordinary creatures below level 11. This griffin definitely cannot be of such a high level."

Yes, why didn't I think of that? It seems that my arcane awareness is still not enough.

Fang Yu's eyes lit up, he took out his black magic wand and performed an "identification spell" on the griffin.

Unnamed, the 680th generation of arcane hybrid life, a 7th level extraordinary life form, used the fourth-ring spell "￥%&#" of the School of Life, the third-ring spell "……%*+" of the School of Enchanting, and the fifth-ring spell "!*&@" of the School of Life to break through reproductive isolation and stabilize the origin of life, and created the offspring by hybridizing a female giant eagle and a male flame lion.

The fourth-level spell of the Enchanting School "&%...￥" allows it to pass on some experience and information in its bloodline, but due to the genetic locking side effect of the spell, the life form's extraordinary abilities cannot evolve.

Why are the spells mentioned in it all garbled?
Moreover, the levels of these spells don’t seem to be very high.

Why does this feel so familiar?

Continue to look down at the information sent by the identification technique.

"Under the influence of the '@*#~' spell, this creature will go into heat once every 50 years, and can give birth to up to three offspring each time."

"Each offspring will leave a legacy of '%￥￥' through their bloodline. Through '%￥￥', the creature can be granted the ability to cast 'Wind Blade' and 'Wind Dance' by the magic network wave monitoring system. The number of times they can cast spells increases with age, up to a maximum of 5 times a day."

"Experimenter: Adrian Akani."

Adrian Akani!
It's this guy again!
Magic network fluctuation monitoring system?

What has he done this year?
