Chapter 241: Candy
Chapter 241: Candy
White Devil did not disappoint heath. Heath had obtained 0.1 spiritual power and an average of 0.2 physical attributes from its body. Other than that, he had also obtained its innate spell, [Swamp].
This was an earth elemental spell. It could change the structure of the land in a small area, turning the blueprint into a soft swamp that could trap the target.
After killing White Devil, Heath continued to move forward, and then he met many strange creatures.
There were Swamp Monsters that lived in the swamp, like a lump of mud mixed together, White-Legged Orangutans with six arms, and Flame Foxes with red fur that would ignite when provoked…
Although the Dark Forest was dangerous, the element content in it was one of the best in the West Coast Continent, and even in the entire Wizard Continent.
The rich amount of elements naturally gave birth to rich demonized creatures. Many demonized creatures that Heath had only read about in books existed here, and they were everywhere.
This really made Heath very happy.
These magical creatures were all extracted for the first time, and each time they gave him a large number of attribute bonuses. To Heath, this was like walking into a treasure trove.
‘I’ll find a place close to the Dark Forest to settle down…’
If he extracted all the materials in this forest, he believed that the materials he obtained would be more than enough to advance to an intermediate Wizard.
Heath bowed and silently decided.
In the next few days, Heath stayed in this area of the Dark Forest to search for the Candy Monster.
The Candy Monster was a rare demonized creature, and its growth was very random. Although it grew in this forest, it could appear anywhere.
There was no other way to collect this material, so he could only slowly search for it bit by bit.
Heath simply had patience and time. After ending the Bloody Battlefield, he no longer had any missions on him, so he could do whatever he wanted.
While searching for the Candy Monster, he also hunted the demonized creatures in the Dark Forest. Heath’s strength was also increasing day by day.
…
Time flew by. A few months later.
In the Dark Forest, near the Magic Tree Airport.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
The sharp sound of rushing wind could be heard.
Two figures flew across the tree trunk one after the other.
In front of them was a strange-looking creature. It was only about 30 centimeters tall and looked like a lump of sticky liquid that had been rubbed together. It only had eyes, nose, mouth, and other features on it.
The monster gave off a strong sweet smell, as if it was made of syrup.
Behind the Candy Monster was a young man. He was wearing a grayish-black leather armor, a black cloak, and a dark red greatsword flying around him.
This was naturally Heath.
As he quickly shuttled through the tree trunks, Heath stared at the strange creature in front of him without blinking.
‘I’ve finally found it!’
The strange creature in front of him was the target of Heath’s trip. It was a child’s candy, also known as the Candy Monster.
It was a type of mollusk creature. Other than that, its body tissues were very high in sugar. In addition, it looked like it was made of a lump of syrup, hence its name.
Splash!
At this moment, the sound of water suddenly came from the front.
Vaguely, there was a stream ahead.
The Candy Monster sped up and quickly fled in the direction of the stream.
Seeing that Nina, who was flying beside Heath, quickly said, “Heath, it’s escaping!”
The Candy Monster was an elemental magic creature. It could freely transform into various elemental forms. Once it escaped into the water, it would transform and disappear into the water. It would be difficult to find it then.
Heath’s expression was cold. “I know.”
As he spoke, he waved his right hand to the side, and the Red Demon that was flying next to him was held in his hand.
He held Red Demon and stared at the Candy Monster in front of him for a while, then he slashed forward with his sword.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The sound of fierce wind breaking rang out. Thousands of wind blades swept up in the air, and then like a stampede of beasts, they pounced on the Candy Monster in front of them.
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! A series of ‘pfft’ sounds could be heard.
The Candy Monster was cut into tens of thousands of pieces by Heath’s wind blades.
However, these pieces did not stop. They continued to charge forward at the same speed. After charging for a distance, they regrouped and returned to their original appearance.
Heath frowned.
He had found the Candy Monster, but he had encountered a lot of trouble when he was capturing it.
This monster had very strong elemental defense and was immune to most of Heath’s spells. Only regular spells like Sword Wind could deal damage to it.
However, although Sword Wind could hurt it, it could change the structure of its cells to divide. Once it was attacked, it would divide its body cells to avoid the attack. What was more troublesome was that this thing was very timid. Once it saw that the situation was bad, it would turn around and run.
In fact, this was the third time Heath had discovered the Candy Monster in the past few months, but without exception, it had escaped.
‘This time, I will definitely not repeat the same mistake!’
Heath narrowed his eyes and stared at the Candy Monster, but he was not in a hurry to attack.
Both parties continued to chase.
After passing through a few large trees, the terrain ahead suddenly became clear. Both parties came to a lawn. This lawn was connected to the bank of the stream ahead. Once they passed through this lawn, the Candy Monster would definitely be able to escape into the stream.
However, at this moment, Heath moved.
His body twisted, and a black shadow quietly surged out from his body. He quickly appeared in front of the Candy Monster and formed a blurry human figure.
‘Shadow Substitution!’
The black blurry shadow quickly painted its color. On the contrary, Heath, who was at the back, gradually lost its color and turned into black and white.
In an instant, Heath, who had been at the back, appeared in front of them.
At that moment, Heath raised his right hand and the leather case on his hand flashed. A sheepskin scroll suddenly flew out of the leather case and landed on the surface of the water in front of him.
At the same time, Heath held Red Demon and slashed his sword at the Candy Monster at the back.
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!
Just like the previous attack, when the wind blades swept across the Candy Monster, it instantly split into countless pieces. Like a piece of water that had been splashed out, it passed through the wind blades and through Heath. It fell straight to the back.
And behind it, it was already a small stream.
Seeing that it was inevitable for the Candy Monster to fall into the stream, its body had already begun to become transparent. That was the elemental characteristic of the Candy Monster that changed its body structure. It was as if it was ready to transform into water and merge into the water.
However, at this moment, a blue light suddenly lit up on the stream.
Immediately after, an extremely cold air rose from the stream. A series of cracking sounds could be heard. The stream that was originally flowing was actually solidified into layers of solid ice in an instant.
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! A series of crisp sounds could be heard.
Clumps of liquid crashed into the solid ice surface.
The Candy Monster was clearly at a loss. The scattered shooing stopped for a moment, but it quickly took measures and tried to escape in another direction.
However, at this moment, an extremely powerful force swept over from all directions.
The Candy Monster on the lake surface was completely frozen at this moment.
