Free Chapter 0355 Nightmare Garden
Two days later, the two finally arrived at the legendary ‘Witch Cottage’.
This is a magic cottage hidden in the Nightmare Garden, and it is guarded by Sharon, a Level 1 witch from the Death Witch Clan.
When Alice asked the nearby villagers about the approximate location of the mysterious area with her tender and cute face, the two found the entrance to the Nightmare Garden in a deserted area.
According to Alice, this should also be a ‘field’ mission point specially set up by the Witch Council. It is guarded by formal witches, who are responsible for assessing and reviewing the trial missions of apprentice witches in the surrounding area.
Because it is not open to the public, the witches stationed here deliberately create a mysterious and terrifying atmosphere to scare away those nosy villagers who are curious about witches. However, there are indeed many rare magic plants in the Nightmare Garden. Not to mention ordinary people, even apprentice witches with weaker strength may find it difficult to force their way in.
Therefore, when Grimm and Alice came to the entrance of the Nightmare Garden, they saw a gloomy garden surrounded by crooked iron fences. Through the half-open gate, you can vaguely see the tall trees and exotic flowers and plants inside, while the slightly farther places are shrouded in a faint mist.
On an old road sign erected on the right side of the garden gate, a line of bloody characters is clearly visible.
Nightmare Garden, trespassers will die!
Looking around, most of the iron fences that can be seen in sight have rusted, and they are barely standing crookedly. In many places, wild dogs can get in with large gaps.
However, in such an area, ordinary wild dogs may not even have the courage to approach!
"Let's go, these are all tricks of the witches to scare those country bumpkins!" Alice shrugged, stretched out her hand to push open the rusty iron gate, and walked in with a creaking hoarse sound.
Grimm, who was following behind, saw it clearly. Alice, who stepped into the gate, seemed to have suddenly melted into a layer of water film. Her short and thin figure suddenly became abnormally distorted.
"Chip, stay alert at all times, and remind me in time if there is any problem!" Grimm secretly issued an order.
"Ding, the mission has been established... Special force field fluctuations have been found, and the warning level has not yet been reached..."
It's good that there is no danger!
Grimm then strode into the garden with confidence.
This is indeed the nightmare garden!
After entering, Grimm found that what he saw was a botanical garden, a plantation where demonized plants grew everywhere.
This is a demonized plant resource point that is not much different from the human noble garden.
The winding stone path under his feet is 5 meters wide, enough for two or three adults to walk side by side here. On both sides of the path are flower beds separated by 1-meter-high wooden fences, in which strange plants of various shapes are planted.
Although Grimm was not a pharmacist, he could recognize most of the plants in the garden at a glance with the help of the information in the chip database in his mind.
The nightmare garden was indeed a nightmare garden. There were not many normal species of plants planted in it. Most of them were vicious and blood-sucking plants and mutant species. If they appeared in human society, I am afraid that any one of them could cause a big storm.
Human-faced mushrooms, blood-sucking vines, man-eating plants, sun-wheel flowers, konjac grass, snake-headed mushrooms, tree demons, flower elves...
Most of these plants live in groups, and Grimm has been dealing with many of them for a long time in the magic swamp.
Like the human-faced mushroom, it is a small red mushroom shape with several long and thin dark stripes on the umbrella. At a glance, it looks like a human smiling face sketched by children. Once they smell human breath, they will stretch out their delicate hands and feet as if they were alive, gather together and squeak and make sounds similar to children's cries, which looks quite cute.
However, once someone is bewitched by them and walks into their midst, they will create a mysterious dream similar to an illusion, making the other person intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves.
In addition, although they look cute, they are carnivorous!
There are also some plants that grow alone here, and there is only one solitary plant in the huge field. Like the tree demon, it is such a terrible plant. They do not need partners to survive. Wherever they parasitize, all other plants will be deprived of vitality and eventually wither and die.
However, the tree demons planted here are obviously still juveniles. Once they reach adulthood, they will pull out their roots from the ground and transform into a human-like intelligent creature. At that time, the tree demons were handsome men and charming women, and they had natural charm spells, which were also a more ideal contract creature for witches.
As for wild tree demons, they usually hide in the depths of the jungle. They are a kind of jungle elves and are difficult to capture easily. Even Grimm did not expect to see their juveniles here.
In addition to these, the nightmare garden also planted a lot of mysterious plants that Grimm had never seen before.
It was a dense patch of light yellow flowers, with pink and tender petals slightly closed, swaying slowly in the breeze, and there was nothing special about it from the outside. But when Grimm leaned over and took a closer look, he was shocked to find that there was a human face with clear eyebrows and eyes inside each closed petal.
Old, young, male, female, beautiful, ugly... Each face was clearly visible, and each had a different appearance, but the only thing in common was that they all had their eyes closed.
Seeing this, Grimm couldn't help but use the word "they" in his mind to describe these...
Because the faces sleeping in these petals were so lifelike, it actually gave Greem the illusion that they were the incarnations of real humans.
Greem looked up in shock. He saw a large field of lush flowers, but it gave him an inexplicable feeling of coldness and weirdness. The breeze blew, and waves of whispering noises sounded. These human-faced flowers seemed to be talking secretly.
"Hey, an unknown force field fluctuation has been detected, and it is initially determined to be in the field of illusion... It is recommended that the subject stay away immediately!"
Maybe this is not an illusion!
Greem quickly took two steps and left the creepy flower bed. He had a feeling that once those human-faced flowers opened their eyes, something terrible would happen.
"Don't worry, this is one of the many resource points of the Witch Council, and all demonized plants are strictly managed. As long as you don't step out of this stone path, they won't dare to attack you. But once you are lured by them, Entering the flower garden, then..." Alice did not continue, but Grim understood what she meant.
The situation here is very similar to the magic swamp where Greem once stayed. There are too many dangerous demonized plants planted and cultivated in the resource points. To ordinary people, they are simply the most terrifying monsters in the world. Even those weaker trainee witches who break in rashly may have to eat them. Not a small pain.
This...perhaps is the main reason why the Witch Council set this place as one of the evaluation and review sites for the apprentice witch trial tasks!
And of course such a place is managed by someone!
Just as Alice was leading Grim to wander around in the Nightmare Garden, a strange morning glory beside them suddenly grew a little bigger, and a hoarse and sinister old woman's voice came from inside.
"Today is not a garden day in Nightmare Garden! No matter where you are from, you dare to break into my Sharon's territory. This is a huge offense! I will give you 3 minutes to exit here, otherwise..."
"Kind Grandma Sharon, the lovely Alice is here to see you! Have you forgotten me?" Instead of being afraid at all, Alice screamed excitedly.
She actually knows the witch here?
Greem suddenly realized, no wonder she chose this place first among so many places!
"Alice...which Alice..."
As the old witch murmured to herself, a palm-sized flower elf with red berries all over the body suddenly climbed up on the huge morning glory. She looked like a miniature version of a human girl, and there was also a flower elf on her back. Transparent wings as thin as cicada wings.
To be honest, although the flower elves and the green elves that Greem had seen before were similar in appearance, they belonged to different categories of jungle elves.
A person who specializes in auxiliary plant-based witchcraft and has a gentle and peaceful temperament. He is usually captured by wizards to manage their residences and laboratories. A kind of poisonous witchcraft in the plant system, with a ferocious nature and fast flying speed. It is often used as a combat pet.
After the flower elf flew out of the morning glory, she waved a small magic wand in her hand, flapped her transparent wings and quickly circled Alice several times, leaving a faint green light that slowly dissipated in the air. point……
"Alice! It is indeed you Alice...Alice from the Maya family...Your name has been very popular in the witch circle recently. I originally thought it was another guy with the same name as you, but I didn't expect it to be true. It's you! Now that you're here, come in... But the guy with you is better to stay outside, he is a big trouble now!" It seemed that with the help of the flower elf's eyes, the old witch in the distant cabin also saw it. Arriving at Alice, her voice continued to be heard among the morning glory.
"Grandma Sharon, Greem is Alice's current partner. Can you bear to let Alice's partner stay alone outside with these demonized plants?" Somehow, Alice is becoming more and more able to use her 'Girl' status.
A sigh came from the morning glory.
"You are already a mature woman in your mid-twenties, and you are still playing this trick in front of me...Okay, okay, let the wizard come in with you!"
After hearing the old witch's instructions, the flower elf smiled sweetly at the two of them, turned around and took them flying towards the witch's cabin in the distance.
With the flower elf leading the way, it only took two or three minutes to reach the cabin that was previously inaccessible despite going around and around. chapter;
