I'm a mage, what's wrong with loving farming?

Chapter 220 220. Saving the Elf Ai Li
Thanks to the friendship contract established with the Oak of Orpheus, Cloya can clearly observe everything that the other party can see, and of course can hear the orders of the cardinal.

Although he was confident that his eternal magic would not be disconnected no matter where he went, after entering the Yavana Holy Mine, the slightly blurred image still made him feel that something was wrong.

So without saying a word, he came to the sea area of ​​the Xuyue Divine Tree, used magic power as a connection, and wrapped the other end of the friendship contract around the branches of the sacred tree.

In this way, the magic power was supplied by this magical tree instead of him. This tree contained all the magic power he had accumulated, so even if something unexpected happened, he could easily intervene.

After doing all this, the trembling picture finally returned to normal. He was sitting in the Moon Sea, surrounded by a group of small creatures such as dolphins, jellyfish, and sharks, who were watching the picture made of magic in front of them with him.

Mycelium and spores cover the entire world.

Both the rocks and the land were covered with spores and hyphae, and were trembling slightly with the air. They were gray and made people feel short of breath just by looking at them.

Fortunately, this elf ship is still quite powerful, and even the harsh environment cannot stop it from moving forward.

The magic lights of various colors formed various kinds of magic, and they opened up a path. Even when surrounded by spores, hyphae and Zerg, it remained spotless.

Logically speaking, this was the highlight moment of the Orpheus Oak. It was killing people in a panic and had been silent for six hundred years. It was a pride for it to appear in this way.

But Cloya felt more and more uneasy as he watched, because of what the cardinal said on the deck of Shenzhou -

"Shenzhou is approaching the bottom of the Yavana Holy Mine."

"...Yes, I have completely controlled it. Its magic flow and soul are under my control."

"Once we reach the bottom, I will order it to disintegrate, and its contents will fall into the depths of the abyss."

"I know that everything is for the light!"

Judging from his meaning and plan, it seems... he wants to sacrifice this Shenzhou.

Although it was just a few words and he kept his voice down, the intention to drive the Shenzhou to the deepest part of the Yavana Holy Mine and fill the cracks in the earth with the Shenzhou's body and soul was very obvious.

The cardinal did not regard the Oak Ship as an intelligent life at all, but just a tool. He watched the latter continue to bombard and clear the way, moving towards the depths of the Yavana Holy Mine.

"You are so stupid! People are about to suffer this, and you still want to go in!"

Cloya's brows twitched, and he wanted to pull the oak tree back quickly, but the latter refused at all. He still firmly believed that this was the order of his master.

It focuses all its energy and magic on how to open up a road.

It looks forward to meeting its master deep within the earth, announcing its arrival to the demons and cultists within the sacred mines of Yavana.

Croix was completely helpless and could only think hard about what to do.

The only thing that made him feel a little relieved was that the Yavana Holy Mine was really quite deep. If you calculate from the surface to the deepest part of the underground mine layer, the distance is estimated to be about three or four hundred kilometers.

Even with such a heavy bombardment, if you want to truly reach the deepest point, the hardships along the way will definitely be numerous.

Therefore, Croa still has plenty of time to come up with a solution.

After thinking hard, he suddenly thought of something - after his Astral Body Imprinting Technique takes effect, he can ignore the distance and observe the imprinted magical beasts or magical plants.

So, did the missing elf Ellie carry the thieving rat? If she did carry the thieving rat, I should be able to find a way to locate her and notify Miffyne to rescue her.

According to the news just received, the root of all this actually started when Ellie followed the bishop of the Holy See of Light into the Yavana Holy Mine and then disappeared.

As long as she can be found, some problems should be solved, at least the Orpheus Oak will not go to its death.

"Let me see where it is..."

Cloa immediately began to activate the advanced version of the Astral Body Imprinting Technique—the magical light streams intertwined in front of him, gradually forming a circular light curtain that flickered with countless light spots.

There are so many points of light there, like stars in a summer night, and some are particularly bright, really sparkling.

Croa knew that this was the location of all the magical plants and beasts he had imprinted.

"If it's the Yavana Holy Mine, it should be in this direction, and then get closer..."

After careful study, he found the only small spot of light shining at the bottom of the Yavana Holy Mine.

That is the engraved light spot representing the earth-thief rat.

This guy actually has quite a lot of magic engraved, not only a variety of recipes, but also magic control, diving, earth and stone shaping...

As a qualified "cook", it's normal to know more things, right?

This also causes its astral body structure to be abnormally bright, just like a high-intensity flashlight turned on at night.

"Can you hear me?" Kloya tried to communicate with it, using the Void Moon Tree as a signal amplifier.

In the end, I actually got an answer.

"Chi chi chi chi!"

The earth-thief emitted extremely anxious mental fluctuations, and tried hard to stick its head out from the vines, as if looking for Kloya.

At this moment, it was inside a deep cave, covered by countless corrupt vines, like a forgotten forest grave.

However, these vines not only blocked the breath of the few living people here, but also prevented the spores and hyphae from expanding into every pore - after all, spores and hyphae were not undead, and certainly would not like such a lifeless place.

"what happened?"

Elf Ellie noticed the strangeness of her pet, hugged the earth-thief, gently stroked its head, and said softly: "Don't move, I will feed you after we get out."

"Jiji."

The earthworm, whom she named Xiao Huang, nudged Ellie's palm with its head. Its little eyes were shining, trying to accept the call coming from the depths of its soul.

It was quiet for a moment.

After comforting the earthworm, Ellie glanced around and saw the injured paladins and her elf friends huddled together.

These people were more or less susceptible to being invaded by the mycelium, and they all had high fevers. They were all curled up and unconscious.

There was a glimmer of gloom in her eyes.

Even she had no good way to get rid of this abyss magic creation from the lower plane, not to mention that this incident revealed something strange.

A bishop of the Church of Light who possessed a holy relic and led a complete group of Silver Wing Knights could be so easily dispersed by the insect tide and the myconid army...

If this were to get out, those abyss demons and cultists who had been severely beaten by the Holy See would jump out of hell.

As a member of the Orpheus family, she actually had life-saving alchemical items on her, but she had tried them, and neither the Feather of Isis that could open a space portal nor the Horn of Semnas that could connect with the family could be used normally.

There are some things that you really can't think too much about. If you think too much about them, she would even start to doubt whether there is something wrong with these injured Silver Wing Paladins.

'The magical environment here is too complicated. I can't figure out the direction. There are no animals or magical plants to ask... If I go out rashly, I will definitely be discovered.'

'But their injuries won't last long... What should I do?'

Just as she was thinking about how to escape next, the earth-thief in her arms suddenly chirped twice, then anxiously picked up her space ring and searched for something.

"You said you were looking for that sword?"

Thanks to the elves' natural ability to communicate with monsters and magical plants, she immediately understood what Xiao Huang meant, but she was very curious about what he wanted the sword for.

"Jiji!"

Xiao Huang received Croa's order and now had a solution. He urged to take out the sword quickly.

Ai Li had no choice but to take out the living weapon that had turned into a small silver sword and handed it to Xiao Huang. To be honest, she was also a little excited and curious about what this earth-stealing rat was going to do.

The earth-thieving rat that got the small sword rode on the hilt of the small sword, first came to the unconscious Silver-Wing Knights, and cut their arms with the blade, making the blade covered with blood.

Then he came to an open space, and tried hard to control the small sword to draw complicated magic patterns and designs on the ground.

Ellie: “!?”

She covered her mouth and looked at herself, a chubby yellow mouse, in surprise.

Based on her knowledge, this should be a summoning array, and it seems to be a summoning array related to the Vatican.

However, the structures of these magic patterns and spells are somewhat ancient. They are not like the light spells used by the Holy See today, but rather like those used by the Paladins during the development of the Old World.

As the structure of the ritual gradually took shape, it formed an extremely special petal pattern that looked like a hexagram, and the power of light began to flow on it.

It shines brightly in the blood of the Silver Wing Paladin.

"What on earth is this?" Ellie was getting more and more surprised. She couldn't understand why a mouse could draw such a strange magic circle of light magic patterns.

Little Yellow the Earth-stealing Rat had no time to explain to her. It was trying hard to receive the complicated information about the magic circle from Cloya. Just receiving this information was enough to make its small brain almost boil.

Not to mention that it has to be portrayed completely, which is why it has been transformed by Croa several times and is the smartest mouse among this group of earth-stealing mice, so it can barely keep up.

It struggled to control the small silver sword, and after about half an hour, the magic circle was finally formed. It collapsed to the ground exhausted, and was picked up by Ellie, who looked distressed.

"Are you okay?" Ellie's white fingers sprinkled tiny green halos like raindrops on Xiao Huang's head.

Xiao Huang hummed and arched into her arms, finally found a suitable position, and closed his eyes peacefully.

"...You horny rat." Ellie patted Xiao Huang gently and focused her attention on the magic circle that had been activated.

The light inside the magic circle intertwined and formed the shape of a portal, from which countless golden feathers floated out.

These feathers formed a storm all around, waking up all the sleeping people, and began to heal and remove the mycelium in their bodies.

Soon, a figure walked out of the portal.

His body was covered with a battle robe made of endless white and golden light, embroidered with iris patterns, and behind him were three pairs of six-winged wings gently spreading out, trembling in the wind.

The platinum light destroyed the magic circle patterns on the ground.

Well, apart from being less than half a meter tall, she is an angel full of holiness no matter how you look at her.

When the Silver Wing Knights who woke up one after another saw this scene, they knelt down without saying a word, with fanatical looks flashing in their eyes.

Angel!

This must be their bright father sending angels to save them!
Kloya, disguised as an angel, remained noble and arrogant. He looked at the people around him and said, "Follow my footsteps and find the right path in the midst of evil. This path is narrow and difficult, but it leads to light."

After saying that, he walked directly towards the stone wall beside him. All the stone walls blocking his way were melted by the blazing platinum holy light.

He just walked forward, seemingly not caring at all whether the people behind him could catch up or not.

In fact, there was no need to worry - the Silver Winged Paladins, needless to say, had immediately followed, and brought the awakened elf Maine with them.

They ignored their injuries which had not yet fully healed, their eyes filled with fanaticism for faith, a fanaticism that could ignore pain and injury.

After a brief hesitation, Ellie decided to follow. Although she thought it was a bit strange, it was summoned by her own Xiao Huang after all, so there shouldn't be any problem.

The angel Croa was walking in front. In fact, this was just his spiritual body, using the power given by the genuine mushroom angel to barely maintain his noble style.

He must lead these people to find the Pit Lord and Archmage Celeste deep underground before the magic disappears. Through the channels of the Holy Spring Chamber of Commerce, he already knows the coordinates of the latter.

Next, you just need to move forward by hiding from the spore hyphae and patrolling Zerg monsters inside the rock wall.

This is simple and difficult at the same time.

These people are enveloped by the irises and the magic power they emit, which can achieve the effect of invisibility.

In addition, the Orpheus Oak Divine Ship, which was advancing rapidly, attracted most of the attention of the monsters in the Holy Mine of Yavana. Otherwise, even if he borrowed the power of angels, it would not be easy to lead these people.

While finding the right direction to move forward, he tentatively wrapped his spiritual power around the elf Ellie and whispered, "Oxodonta, it will be sacrificed to fill the cracks in the earth and heal the pain of the earth."

"..."

Ai Li was silent at first, then she replied: "You are not an angel. The current Lord of Light has abandoned his original power, and the summoning array is definitely not aimed at angels!"

Her sharpness did not surprise Kloya. In this world, the real nobles and powerful forces, as long as their children were not stupid, were all very smart.

What's more, this is a member of the Orpheus family.

So, he admitted it straightforwardly: "I am the wizard who cultivates earth-thieving rats. The Oak of Orpheus and I are friends, and I don't want to see it sacrificed like this.

The situation outside is like this..."

He quickly described the external situation to Ellie. After listening to her, the latter's mental fluctuations suddenly became violent and it took her a while to recover.

Kloya knew that she was hesitating, so he didn't urge her and just waited quietly.

After a while, Ai Li took the initiative to say: "Based on your description, I guess this is an attempt by Councillor Beoril."

"He has always advocated harnessing the power of nature to achieve his goals."

“The body of the Oak of Orpheus should contain the rejected natural consciousness from Atlantis.

If it reaches the deepest part of the Yavana Sacred Mine, the natural consciousness it absorbs can soothe the scars of the earth and forcibly close the passage to the lower plane."

"Of course, its magic, body, and soul will become the necessary sacrificial nourishment for the emergence of natural consciousness, guiding Mother Earth to reward it."

She expressed her own inference. As for the deeper content, although she had some vague guesses, she could not prove it absolutely.

So she didn't say it.

After listening to what she said, Cloya's doubts were not only not resolved, but became more and more serious.

“Even if the power of the Oak of Orpheus is legendary, can it really reach the lowest level?
If a legend could break into the bottom of the Yavana Holy Mine like this, why did the Holy See of Light cooperate with Mr. Beoril instead of sending their own people? "

Ellie sighed deeply: "Light is the offspring of the Earth Mother Goddess. If there really is a reward, the reward proposed by God and the reward desired by mortals are completely different!"

Kloya felt his hair stand on end instantly, and said in surprise: "The Lord of Light will come in person? How is this possible!"

After blurting out these surprised words, he suddenly thought of something he had heard from the angel - as long as the main plane is damaged, it is possible that it is connected to the heaven of God or the demons and devils in the abyss or hell.

From the perspective of spatial science, both heaven and the abyss of hell belong to the outer high-level planes and are actually the same in distance.

But the problem is that just as the demons from the abyss or the devils from hell need sacrifices to come into the world, the gods also need sacrifices to come.

Strength never comes for no reason.

He recalled the scene he saw when Orpheus Oak Ship came in just now - the frontline bases of various major forces that were attacked by Zerg and Fungus People.

If blood sacrifice is really needed...

Without a doubt, those are the only places.
