Chapter 166

This was a bit beyond common sense.

A trace of solemnity and surprise flashed in Tang Zheng's eyes, and he quickly recalled information about the Twin Witches in his mind.

There was too little information.

Whether it was the information learned in his past life, the intelligence gathered from the lizardmen, or this cave lizardman before him.

The useful information that could be provided was pitifully little.

The only thing Tang Zheng could currently be certain of was that four years later, when the Great Tomb descended, the Twin Witches would still exist.

Unaccountably.

A bad premonition rose in Tang Zheng's heart, because the situation before him was truly somewhat strange.

Of course, it could not be ruled out that the Twin Witches were intentionally making these unusual moves with their wisdom to scare him away.

Tang Zheng looked at the depths of the dense forest wetland shrouded in faint mist and suddenly let out a light laugh: "Alright, then let me see what kind of tricks you're playing."

No matter what the scheme!

Strength is the foundation. He was very sure that the Twin Witches' strength would definitely not exceed level 30, at most level 20 or above.

Although he hadn't had time to replenish his scrolls these past few days.

But he still had 15 scrolls of Flame Archangels on hand, and 18 scrolls of Fourth-Rank angels, ten of which were monitoring scrolls of the Archangel of Power.

Eight were scrolls of the Archangel of Peace; he had used two Archangels of Peace when fighting the lizardmen earlier.

"Lead the way."

Tang Zheng said calmly, signaling the charmed cave lizardman to lead the way forward.

The dense forest environment was full of damp breath, with all kinds of strange-looking trees intertwined, and emerald green vines winding and covering the surroundings.

Making the dense forest radiate an invisible sense of terror.

Tang Zheng held the "Forest Crossing" magic item in his palm, ensuring that the Evil Spirit Dog's actions were not slowed down by the environment.

Coo coo~

Hiss—

Di zha~

Sparse bird calls came from the distance from time to time.

As they gradually went deeper, a huge black shadow slowly appeared in the depths of the dense forest.

Tang Zheng paused the Evil Spirit Dog's forward movement, raised his head to look forward, and stared slightly for a while; due to the mist covering it.

For a moment, he couldn't judge what that black shadow was.

"It is the master's castle." Under the effect of the charm, the cave lizardman spoke to explain with a dazed gaze.

Castle?

Tang Zheng raised an eyebrow in surprise upon hearing this answer; a demi-human race actually building a castle in the depths of a dense forest.

It seemed this Twin Witch was not only smart but also knew how to enjoy herself very well.

Tang Zheng also became slightly cautious at this moment; since he could see the Twin Witches' castle, it meant he was already approaching the other party's territory.

"Hee hee hee~"

Suddenly, a delicate and pleasant giggling sound rang out in the dark forest.

"Little lizard, you actually brought a human in. Doing such a thing, I am very unhappy."

The ethereal, delicate voice came from all directions in the forest.

Twin Witches!

Tang Zheng's gaze tightened; he couldn't judge the other party's position through the voice, so he reached out and patted the Evil Spirit Dog's head.

"Roar!"

The Evil Spirit Dog let out a low growl, raised its nose, and tried hard to sniff the scent in the air, wanting to judge the other party's position through its sense of smell.

However, the various mixed scents in the wetland air made it equally impossible for the Evil Spirit Dog to distinguish the exact location of the Twin Witches.

"Strange, why didn't the little lizard react?"

"So it was controlled."

"Hee hee, you human actually have such means."

The ethereal voice continued to come from all directions, but Tang Zheng could clearly feel that the voice was getting closer and closer to his position.

【Magic "Phantom Sound" discovered. Requires mental-type basic class. Current conditions met.】

【Consume 1 skill point to learn?】

"Playing god and playing ghost."

Tang Zheng glanced at the information appearing on the attribute panel, a trace of surprise flashing in his eyes, followed by a cold sneer.

Mental-type caster classes are fewer in number than the other three caster system classes.

Even for the current Tang Zheng, he had only mastered one "Wizard" class. From the information on the attribute panel, the Twin Witches before him actually also possessed a mental-type caster class.

However, the other party didn't use the class skills related to that mental-type class, but rather ordinary mental-type magic.

In the case where Tang Zheng possessed a mental-type class, he could directly learn the magic mastered by the other party by consuming skill points.

And being unable to indirectly acquire the other party's class was also considered a small drawback.

Tang Zheng waved his arm.

The two Flame Archangels that had been following him and floating in mid-air immediately took Tang Zheng as the center, waving the flame swords in their hands to perform large-scale slashing against the surrounding trees and vines.

Boom! Boom!

The dilapidated branches and vines were destroyed on a large scale, wood chips flew, and a roar was emitted.

The ethereal approaching sound stopped abruptly.

Seeing that it had an effect, a trace of realization flashed in Tang Zheng's eyes.

Besides using magic to create sounds that made it impossible to distinguish direction, the Twin Witches themselves should also have special innate abilities that allowed them to hide in the surrounding environment.

The attribute panel could learn the opponent's magic and skills through skill point consumption, but it could not acquire the innate abilities the other party possessed themselves.

"You human! Truly damn it!!"

=9+Book_Bar

The originally giggling voice became somewhat exasperated.

"Darkness"!

In an instant, the dim environment in the jungle began to become dark at a speed visible to the naked eye, and all light was quickly stripped away.

Even the pale white light emitted from the Flame Archangels disappeared, shrouded by darkness.

Swish!

In the darkness, faint sounds moved.

Clang!

"Ah!"

First was the sound of some sharp object hitting the Flame Archangel's armor, followed by a scream from the darkness.

The thick darkness receded after a brief maintenance, and dim light once again shrouded this dense forest.

Tang Zheng was still sitting on the Evil Spirit Dog, and one of the Flame Archangels had returned, floating quietly on the left side.

If one observed carefully, one could see a clear dent on the chest of this Flame Archangel, clearly having suffered some kind of attack in the darkness.

And the other Flame Archangel appeared eight meters ahead, confronting a creature wrapped in emerald green leaves, with a slender figure, revealing only a pair of bright yellow pupils.

Even though the whole body was wrapped in emerald green leaves, one could still see the other party's graceful figure.

Is this the Twin Witch?

Tang Zheng looked at this mysterious demi-human race; because of being wrapped in leaves, he couldn't judge what race this was.

Additionally.

Is there only one Twin Witch?

Tang Zheng's peripheral vision swept across the surroundings; besides the one opposite him, he couldn't observe any other existence.

"How did you see it?" A trace of horror added to the Twin Witch's voice; she clutched a position on her shoulder where the leaves had been scorched and spoke in disbelief.

That was exactly where she had been cut by the flame sword.

"Of course, it's a magic item."

Tang Zheng raised his finger and pointed at the monocle on his left eye.

The magic "Darkness" used by the other party is magic that can eliminate the ability of surrounding light and does not belong to a negative status; the passive ability "Divine Body" cannot exert a counteracting effect.

However.

The effect of the ordinary "Night Vision" magic item in his hand was actually not very good.

Tang Zheng had secretly used the martial art "Mind's Eye" just now, which was why he had discovered the Twin Witch who intended to sneak attack him in the first place.

"'Darkness' is magic-type magic, 'Phantom Sound' is mental-type magic; the other party possesses a dual-system magic class."

Tang Zheng quickly judged the class structure within the Twin Witches and raised his hand to blast magic at the Twin Witch.

"Magic Arrow!"

Swish!

Three arrows flew out rapidly; at the same time, the Flame Archangel also pressed forward, waving the flame sword in its hand to slash down heavily.

He had just discovered that the leaves wrapped around the Twin Witch were extremely easily scorched and destroyed by the flames burning on the flame sword.

"Corrosion Destruction!"

The Twin Witch screamed, and dark gray magic fluctuations surged out.

The flying magic arrows were corroded and dissipated in mid-air, and this power also descended on the Flame Archangel, but the impact caused was not obvious.

A flash of flame sword light!

A large wound was cut into the Twin Witch's chest again, a smear of bright red blood spilled, and at the same time, the leaves wrapped around her chest were immediately ignited and burned.

"Corrosion Destruction." The Twin Witch let out a painful scream, activated magic again, the flames ignited on her chest were extinguished, and a pair of bright yellow pupils stared fixedly at Tang Zheng:

"Human Race Charm!"

"Undying Spirit."

Magic flashed in Tang Zheng's eyes, and he immediately activated magic to block, while simultaneously controlling the Flame Archangel to continue the attack.

"Help me!" The Twin Witch screamed.

In an instant!

A head with similarly bright yellow pupils but wrapped in white mist drilled out from the Twin Witch's chest.
