Chapter 42: Something is...eating someone!

“Knock, knock, knock!”

Chen Feng knocked on the door to the courtyard.

With a creak, the wooden door before him opened automatically.

This was the forest where the elemental sprites lived. Small houses were built on the treetops. They looked delicate and small, hidden together with the lush trees.

However, the atmosphere in the elemental lands was a little strange.

It was exceptionally quiet.

Chen Feng walked all the way to the house where the elder was staying. The person who opened the door was a tall and thin middle-aged man wearing a gray robe.

Even though he looked like he was in his forties, he was probably several hundred years old.

After a few simple words, the elder handed Chen Feng a mission.

[Solve the Source of Chaos in the Forest]

As for the details of the mission, the elder did not mention a single word about it. He did not even tell Chen Feng anything about the depths of the forest.

After handing the task to Chen Feng, the elder returned to his room without a word.

Chen Feng scratched his head in confusion.

He had heard some rumors about the forest of elemental sprites in his previous life. It was said that the sprites were kind, gentle, and hospitable.

However, this was clearly not the case.

The rumors were all fake?

After walking around the sprite’s territory, Chen Feng discovered a Gold Treasure Chest and a platinum Treasure Chest before entering the depths of the forest.

Following the elder’s instructions, Chen Feng entered from a small path behind the elven territory.

Not long after, Chen Feng realized that the light around him had dimmed.

Various strange plants grew freely in the forest, blocking the narrow path.

This included the ancient trees that reached into the sky. They were lush, and they even blocked out the sunlight, causing the entire forest to fall into darkness.

“Something’s not right…”

In Chen Feng’s impression, the Elemental Sprite Forest was not such a sinister place. He would not remember wrongly.

There was only one possibility-

The plants here started to grow crazily due to some special reason.

Just as Chen Feng was pondering, a thick vine shot out from the dark forest ahead!

Spikes grew on the dark green vines, and they were as thick as a child’s wrist.

The length was unclear. After all, these vines had appeared from the darkness, so they could not see the source.

The speed at which it shot out was extremely fast. Although it was not as fast as a bullet, it was close.

“Earth Barrier!”

Chen Feng’s reaction speed was extremely fast and he immediately used his skill.

In front of him, a rock wall rapidly rose. Just as the vines were about to hit Chen Feng, it blocked them.

However, the danger in the depths of the forest was not limited to that.

Another three thick vines shot out. Chen Feng directly used a summoning spell to summon the Pegasus, Pagasos, and Janna, the Storm’s Fury.

A whirlwind swept out, tearing the vine into countless pieces.

As Chen Feng leveled up to Level 29, Janna’s level also increased to Level 29. Her battle strength was much higher than before.

After the vines were completely torn apart, there was no movement in the depths of the forest, but it was still eerie, and no one could tell what kind of danger was lurking inside.

Chen Feng carefully stepped into the darkness.

After walking a short distance, Chen Feng suddenly smelled a refreshing fragrance.

The moment he smelled it, his consciousness was about to sink into it. Chen Feng felt like he was about to fall asleep. His body felt light, like he was about to ascend to immortality.

“Something’s not right!”

Just as he was about to lose consciousness, Chen Feng bit down on the tip of his tongue.

The pain returned to his mind.

I cannot fall asleep!

In such a dangerous place, once he fell asleep, he would definitely die!

All of a sudden, a cool breeze blew over. It was Janna’s shield skill.

Chen Feng immediately felt his mind clear up.

Then, he summoned the Soul Suppressing Pagoda and floated beside him.

Against this kind of illusion attack, the Soul Suppressing Pagoda was the most effective method to directly suppress one’s soul.

No power could interfere with his mind.

Walking around a thick tree in front of him, Chen Feng discovered a bright red mushroom hidden in the corner behind him.

This fragrance came from the mushrooms.

[Fantasy Mushroom]

Chen Feng’s alchemy panel immediately gave an answer.

“It can be used to concoct hallucinogens.”

Chen Feng mumbled softly as he carefully walked over. He plucked the mushroom and kept it in his backpack.

Thinking back to that experience, Chen Feng felt a lingering fear.

He almost fell for the mushroom’s trick.

Danger lurked everywhere in this forest. A harmless-looking mushroom could be the culprit that killed you.

After walking for a while more, Chen Feng also discovered [Venomous Spore].

This plant continued to split apart. As the breeze blew, it would scatter. Once it was sucked in, it would be fatal.

Even Chen Feng could not deal with such a thorny plant, so he could only take a detour.

What made Chen Feng feel even worse was…

This forest was too lush. Even Pegasus Pagasos found it difficult to fly in such a narrow space.

Chen Feng could only ride on the back of Pagasos, relying on its ability to fly through the forest.

After moving for several hundred meters.

Chen Feng found a torn corpse on the ground.

And it was a human corpse!

The sprites were usually tall and thin, and the broken arm in front of them was very thick. Clearly, it was an Awakened who had come here.

Chen Feng recalled that when he was searching for information about the Elemental Sprite Forest from [Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets].

He found out that an Awakened team had entered the Elemental Sprite Forest two days ago.

If he was right.

This corpse that had yet to rot should be one of them.

Thinking up to this point, Chen Feng’s pupils trembled slightly, clearly surprised.

“If I remember correctly, in that squad…”

There seemed to be two Class A Awakened.

Such a powerful team had still died here?

Although he did not know what abilities these two Class A Metahumans had, since they had come all the way here, it meant that the poisonous spores and hallucinogenic mushrooms were no threat to them.

Such a powerful Awakened team…

He had also died here, and not even his bones remained!

What was so scary ahead?

Just as Chen Feng raised his head to look ahead, a fog suddenly appeared in the forest, blocking his vision.

Soon after, Chen Feng heard the sound of flesh being eaten.

Something was… eating someone!
