A Sorcerer’s Journey

Chapter 1265: Chapter 1266: Scarecrow (Lanxi Grand Alliance)

”Xiao Ba!”

Green summoned Xiao Ba using his spacetime communication talent, but was blocked by a membrane of this great world, Xiao Ba let out a shout, looking like he had hit his head and felt dizzy.

”Damn it, Green Beast, how did you end up in another high-level material sealing space again?”

Xiao Ba shouted in pain, clearly this Ironblood Prison Trial Ground is a high-level seal for Green right now, even the spacetime communication talent between Xiao Ba and Green was hindered.

Green wanted to ask Xiao Ba some questions, but couldn’t get any answers at all. Evidently, only Xiao Ba could carry out some simple communication unilaterally, and this fellow didn’t answer Green’s most urgent question.

Which is, how much time has really passed in the Material World!

The three Trickster Scarecrows seemed to sense Green’s actions, and another scarecrow with a string of keys around its neck let out a raspy laugh.

”Shoo shoo shoo shoo, this is the trial ground built by the Ironblood Galaxy civilization for captives, where adult elite Ironblood Warriors undergo their coming-of-age assessment once every ten years. Your deep-level phantom communication will be blocked here by the Ironblood Sky Curtain. After all, this is the Ironblood Galaxy civilization, with its prideful Ironblood Technology, specifically constructing this trial world.”

As the scarecrow with the raspy laugh spoke, it soon became gloomy again, its eyes forming two groups of Soul Fire, staring intently at Green.

”Why is there no biological aura that can be sensed on you, able to drift from deep spectral space-time to shallow space-time without damage, you can’t be as weak as you appear.”

This scarecrow’s expression changed unpredictably, making Green somewhat unable to adapt.

”Ironblood Prison Trial Ground? Inter-civilizational war of three world clusters!”

Green’s expression changed, originally thinking he was summoned to the Trickster World Cluster by the Tricksters, only to find the situation developed far beyond Green’s expectations, he was actually summoned to the Ironblood Galaxy civilization’s prison by the three Trickster captors.

These three bastards!

Green couldn’t help but curse inwardly, the situation was pretty dire.

According to Green’s understanding from the Trickster trapped in the Radiated World during the Wizard Civilization War, distorted by the Space-based Annihilation Cannon, the Trickster civilization is simultaneously at war with the Ironblood Galaxy and Mother Nest civilizations!

The intensity of the three-party chaotic war even exceeds the civilization war between the Green Wizarding Alliance and the Metal Destroyers!

Staying calm, Green did not show panic, quickly judging his situation.

At the moment, according to the Wizarding Alliance’s calculation, he should be like a special slave whose identity hasn’t been discovered yet in the Abyssal Holy Tower Arena, and if he acts rashly, it might cause very serious consequences.

Although unable to accurately assess the strength of these three Tricksters, their life levels not reaching the World Master level is certain by any means.

Thus, this Ironblood Prison Trial Ground as the scarecrow said is indeed likely to be the place for the Ironblood Galaxy civilization’s coming-of-age ceremony for warriors.

Find a way back to the Wizard World!

So, his first plan is to try to understand the characteristics and relations among the three civilizations from this trial ground.

With his current strength, violently breaking through this world’s constraints is nothing extraordinary, but if it really provokes hostile entire civilizations, it would almost be a certain path to self-destruction.

Hence, he must use skillful means to secretly confirm which among the Ironblood Galaxy civilization, Mother Nest civilization, and Trickster civilization is more suitable as a breakthrough point for cooperation.

And undoubtedly, these three Tricksters before him are whom Green needs to understand first.

As a breakthrough point, since he is already in the Ironblood Galaxy civilization world cluster, Green naturally leans towards the Ironblood Galaxy civilization, if successful, it will save a lot of trouble.

”The war here...”

”It’s coming!”

Suddenly, that scarecrow wearing a crimson scarf raised its head and murmured deeply.

Green’s Three-Colored Light Eyes looked over, seeing giant metal cages suspended by parachutes on the Iron Curtain Firmament, countless, slowly floating down.

The Three-Colored Light Eyes kept blinking, with eagle-eyed reductions in sight gaps, the world instantly became a structure of black and white points and lines, with visions darting between metal cages collecting data.

After all, in such a vast world beyond sight, the data of metal cages Green collected was about several thousand, it was nothing within the entire world.

In the many cages, about one-third contained Trickster Scarecrows, in a coma-like state waiting to awaken.

Another third was full of various patterned beetles, but with Green’s Face of Truth detection, these beetles were connected by consciousness, similar to the King of the Snow Thread Worms type existence.

The remaining one-third cages contained various biological forms, there were elemental lives, flesh and blood lives, without any regularity.

”What’s your name, what abilities do you have, if you want to live, come with us.”

The scarecrow that hadn’t spoken seemed to be the leader of the scarecrows, unlike the other two scarecrows, the straw on it squirmed incessantly, already somewhat dried and yellow, seeming to represent certain special abilities in the Trickster civilization.

”Oblivion Sorcerer, skilled in insight and stealth attacks, strong physique.”

Green’s answer seemed expected by the three Tricksters, and the four while suppressing their aura to the limit, moved forward in the dense humid rainforest, towards the nearest metal cage.

The Trickster with the crimson scarf introduced in a low raspy voice while advancing, ”Names here are mere titles, I am Blood Hand, he’s Phantom Gate, he discovered you.”

Blood Hand pointed at the scarecrow wearing a string of keys, then pointed to the scarecrow with yellow straw.

”Our leader Mist, has undergone seven Ironblood Prison Trials, and successfully killed two Ironblood trialers. If you want to live, follow him.”

The three scarecrows quickly surrounded the metal cage ten plus meters long and wide, fingers ignited with gray flames, depicting mysterious runes in mid-air, completely different from the Wizard Runes.

Under Green’s Truth Mask, with the Three-Colored Light Eyes blinking, he spoke in a deep voice, ”Inside is a group of black beetles waking up constantly, beginning to gather consciousness.”

The three scarecrow Tricksters paused for a moment and began to draw mysterious runes faster, with each green trickfire rune disappearing mid-air once completed.

”You open it.”

All three stopped, seeming to have completed the trap layout, Blood Hand turned to Green and said.

Saying nothing, Green opened the metal cage with a creak, instantly, tens of thousands of insect monsters burst out as Green, prepared as if in advance, lightly retreated.
