As for the feeling of resistance when injecting magic power, Dui guessed that this might be because the wood of the wand was not compatible with it.

In the magical world, wizards' wands are made of different woods, such as Harry Potter's holly, Voldemort's yew, Dumbledore's elder wand is elder, etc. If you use an incompatible wand, it is easy to fail to exert the desired power, or even cause unexpected accidents.

Neither oak nor pine suits him. Dui is curious about what wood his wand is made of.

He remembered that there were many kinds of trees in the old forest. Perhaps he could make a few more trips to the old forest and get more wood to try one by one.

But he still needs to do one thing first.

Dui's eyes fell on the two pots of white mulberry. After more than a month of magic watering, the white mulberry had grown to one meter tall and was almost ripe.

It was another moonlit night. Dui held two branches of the white mulberry tree in his hands and continuously injected magic power into them. Under the nourishment of magic power, the white mulberry tree became more and more bright and juicy, as if it was about to squeeze out water.

At a certain moment, the white mulberry reacted, and the silver moonlight was attracted to the white mulberry and gathered together, emitting a faint silver light.

Bathed in the moonlight, the white safflower grew rapidly. In just a moment, it grew to the height of an adult and exuded a rich herbal fragrance.

Chapter 11: Huorn Treeman

Baixian has finally matured!

Dui looked at the two tall and beautiful white mulberry plants without any pity. He pulled out his bone-cutting knife and chopped off the white mulberry plants at the root with two strokes.

Set up a pot, chop the white scallion into small pieces and throw it into the pot to steam.

After the white scallion is thoroughly cooked, Dui turns off the heat and filters the residue with a filter cloth, leaving only the juice. Then he boils it again until the juice evaporates, leaving a thick layer of green mud at the bottom of the pot.

This is the magic potion that is commonly found in every household in the wizarding world - Dietary Essence.

It is also the only potion that does not require a wand to stir and is simple to make, but its healing effect is very significant, and it can heal most wounds except those caused by dark magic.

He put the white savory essence into two jars, one large and one small. He kept the large one for future use, while Dewy gave the small one to Drogo Baggins to thank him for his shelter and hospitality over the past few days.

Zhuo Guo looked at the ointment in the jar, surprised and curious, "Duyle, what is this?"

"This is a potion I made. It can heal wounds. I'm giving it to you as a backup." Dui explained. He took the mouse from the cage and cut a small wound on its body with a knife. The mouse immediately bled profusely and screamed in pain.

Zhuo Guo was shocked by this scene, and looked at Dui as if he was looking at an evil wizard.

But the next moment, he saw Dui take out some ointment and apply it on the wound. The wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he was stunned with shock.

This is simply a miracle drug!

He looked at the jar of potion in his hand and felt it suddenly become heavy and difficult to hold.

"Duier, this... this is too expensive! I can't accept it." Zhuo Guo swallowed and refused with some difficulty. He was not ignorant. Such a magical medicine that could heal wounds so quickly should be worth a fortune.

Dui smiled and shook his head, then put the potion jar back into his hand. "You're welcome, Zhuo Guo. This is my thank you gift. Making this potion isn't difficult for me. Just accept it."

Zhuo Guo finally accepted the white savory essence at Dui's request, and the relationship between the two became closer.

With the white savory essence, Dui's safety is further guaranteed.

So for the next few days, Dui ran to the old forest whenever he had the chance.

He did not go deep into the forest, but moved around the outskirts of the old forest. Once he had gathered enough branches, he would run away and never stay any longer.

What makes Dui enjoy it is that in the constant battle with the trees in the old forest, his magic and combat skills are improving at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In this highly concentrated battle, not only did his control over magic become stronger, but he also tried out the spells in "Standard Spells Elementary", "Mischief Spells", and "Dark Forces: Defense Guide" one by one, and the effects were very obvious.

Of course, in the process of competing with the trees in the old forest, it is inevitable that there will be injuries.

But with the healing effect of Dictamnus essence, I can be full of energy again and go looking for trouble with trees the next day.

Dui used the trees in the old forest as training opponents for the novice training village, but he had no idea that the trees in the old forest were becoming more and more resentful of him and were secretly preparing to give him a fatal blow.

Dewy had been in Bucktown for two months, the longest time he had spent in any place besides Hobbiton.

Based on the principle of proximity, Dui plans to go deep into the old forest to sign in.

Moreover, he had pulled dozens of kinds of branches from the old forest these days, including ash, poplar, cypress, holly, redwood, etc. However, although these trees were suitable for making wands, they all had more or less magical resistance and were obviously not suitable for him.

So he needed to go deep into the old forest and collect more wood to find the right wood for his wand.

So after making preparations, he said goodbye to Zhuo Guo, walked through the high hedge alone, and entered the old forest again.

As soon as he entered the woods, Dui felt something was wrong.

This time, the old forest was so quiet! It was completely different from last time when it attacked him crazily as soon as it saw him.

Something must be wrong when things are abnormal. Dui became alert, but he did not retreat.

Continuing to walk deeper into the forest, the system still did not respond.

This made Dui a little doubtful. Could he sign in at the old forest? Or did he have to go to the center of the forest to use it?

After walking for a while, a trail soon appeared.

This path appeared very abruptly, as if it had just been opened up. The trees on both sides were very neatly and tacitly made way for such a path in the forest.

Dui looked at the surrounding trees very vigilantly. The malice released by these trees was so strong that he had to concentrate all his attention to guard against sudden attacks from these trees.

As soon as he stepped onto the forest path, the surrounding trees quickly closed together to form rows of tree walls, blocking Dui's retreat.

At the same time, the surrounding trees began to attack Dui frantically. The thick branches lashed towards him, and the roots drilled out of the ground, trying to pierce him into a skewer.

"Armor protection!"

"Stand stiff and stop dead!"

"All petrified!"

……

Dui immediately cast a protection spell on himself, then locked the tree roots with a leg-locking spell, and added a petrification spell to freeze the tree.

After fighting with these trees for so long, Dui was very familiar with their attack methods and performed with ease. He even collected tree species that he had never encountered before.

But what made Dui gradually feel bad was that more and more trees came from all directions and surrounded him, leaving him no way to retreat and only a small path deep into the center of the forest.

Dui had no choice but to run towards the path leading deep into the woods unless he fought with the trees.

He understood that the trees were trying to force him into the innermost part, so they left him with this path.

If it were someone else, they would still hesitate.

But Dui knew what was at the deepest point, so he ran along the trail without hesitation.

The path behind him was occupied by trees again and disappeared bit by bit.

It was as if such a path had never existed.

Surrounded by trees, Dui ran until nightfall.

The fog in the forest and the increasingly dense trees blocked out the moonlight. Dui had to cast a fluorescent spell to barely see the path on the ground.

Dui, who was out of breath, finally walked out of the woods and came to a canyon.

There are no tall and dense trees here, only low shrubs and a wide meadow.

A small river flows in the canyon, and a very huge old willow tree stands prominently by the river.

The old willow tree was terrifyingly huge. It was taller and bigger than any other tree in the forest. Its branches were like slender gray arms, crisscrossing and stretching towards the sky.

The twisted and gnarled trunk was dotted with huge cracks, like a grinning mouth, and it made faint creaking sounds in coordination with the movement of the branches.

Chapter 12 Wand Making

As soon as Dui arrived here, he looked at the old willow tree very vigilantly.

Those trees kept attacking him just to force him to come here, to the old willow tree.

Dewy knew it,

It was Huorn, a close relative of the Ents, the treemen. Even the trees that had attacked him before were Huorn.

Huorn is more like a tree than a tree man, and can be said to be a tree with self-awareness and is extremely aggressive.

The old willow tree in front of us is the oldest and most powerful Huorn in this old forest.

And it is full of malice towards humans.

At some point, a soft voice floated in the air, as if a soothing and pleasant lullaby lingering in my ears.

Dui suddenly felt sleepy and his head became dizzy.

He approached the old willow tree as if sleepwalking, without realizing that he was in danger.

The cracks on the old willow tree became bigger and more twisted, revealing a hideous and terrifying smile, waiting for its prey to fall into its trap.

Dui walked closer and closer and came to the old willow tree.

The branches of the old willow tree moved without wind, and a song full of hypnotic magic emanated from every leaf on the willow tree.

It was like someone was whispering a lullaby, or like a group of people were whispering.

Just as the old willow tree opened a huge crack like a mouth, trying to swallow him into its trunk, the system that had been unresponsive finally reappeared.

[Hogwarts Sign-in System: Locate Lao Linzi, do you want to sign in?]

Dui's originally blurred eyes suddenly became clear, and he quickly cast a spell towards the crack:

"All petrified!"

A beam of white light hit the old willow tree, and the old willow tree was instantly frozen, and the singing stopped instantly.

But before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the petrified old willow tree broke free from the spell and swung its thick branches at him.

Dui took a deep breath. The petrification spell had no effect? ​​He had run into a tough opponent!

"Protect yourself with armor!" An invisible shield blocked Dui and collided with the huge branches of the old willow tree. The huge force caused the shield to create ripples.

Seeing that the shield could not hold out for long, Dui kept thinking about ways to break through. When he saw the thick fallen leaves at the foot of the old willow tree, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"The flames are blazing!" A fireball flew out of Dui's hand and landed on a pile of fallen leaves. The fallen leaves caught fire and quickly surrounded the old willow tree and spread to it.

Fire is the nemesis of trees, and even the old willow tree is no exception. The fear of fire makes the old willow tree no longer care about attacking Dui, but desperately wave its branches to beat the flames, trying to extinguish it.

Seeing this opportunity, Dui took out the bone-chopping knife from his waist, cut off a willow branch with one knife, and flew back with the willow branch.

After getting the willow branch, Dui fled as fast as he could, running downstream of the Willow River without looking back. He only heard a roar of anger and hatred coming from behind.

The lower reaches of the Willow River merge into the Brandywine River, and the confluence point is not far from Buckland.
