Arthur's injury was not serious, and his fall was more due to the paralysis effect of the scepter hitting his body.
Because of the protection of the Running Vine Armor, the feeling of numbness disappeared in a flash.
When the monster leader's scepter came down, Arthur's left hand, which was lying on the ground, was raised like lightning.
"Death to Death" Survive in the midst of death, Arthur's originally empty hand suddenly gained a sharp hunting knife. There was a flash of light from the knife, and it came first. The hunting knife penetrated the monster leader's jaw, and the tip of the knife was exposed from its pointed mouth.
The sword was drawn, blood spattered, and the body of the monster leader fell down.
The entire group of monsters exploded in an instant, screaming and screaming, and they rushed towards Arthur crazily.
Arthur stood up and ran away. Before running, he also collected the strange scepter of the monster leader.
Arthur, who was running with all his strength, quickly left these monsters far away. He ran back to the black forest in one breath. This time, there were no monsters to stop him.
The moment he stepped into the woods, the long-lost magic power in his body finally started to run smoothly, and the magic elements in the space were also extremely active.
Arthur took out the "Space Wormhole" magic scroll from his bracelet. With a little magic power, he could go home.
When Arthur was about to pull it open, he hesitated and put the magic scroll back. He remembered Charlene's request that he should know more about this strange world.
Arthur grasped the Star fall Sword again and slowly walked deeper into the woods.
There were still little monsters rushing out of the woods, but their numbers no longer posed any threat to Arthur, so they were easily dealt with.
After walking no more than a hundred meters deeper into the woods, Arthur's eyes suddenly opened up, and a large village appeared in the woods.
After killing the last batch of monsters that rushed out of the stockade, Arthur walked directly in.
This village is not small in scale, but very primitive and simple. Black branches formed a wall around the village, and inside the village were black spire huts made of bark. The bark was tied with a brown vine that Arthur had never seen before. Arthur was about to tear off a section of vines and put it into the bracelet, but found that these vines were very tough and did not break at once.
Arthur also paid special attention to their food, and dug out some dark red moss and brown mushroom-like food from the wooden house, and more dried meat from unknown creatures. Arthur had never seen these things on his way here. It seemed that their food source should come from the other side of the woods, and this world was not as sparse in life as Arthur had initially imagined.
Arthur felt as if he had entered Lilliput when he walked in this village. The roofs of most of the houses were no more than his shoulders. A tall building in the center of the village naturally attracted Arthur's attention. It was a circular altar made of red stone.
In the center of the altar stood a tall statue, which was carved from the black wood on the outside. The carving was so rough that you couldn't even see the face. You could only see one hand across the chest and the other hand holding the scepter high. The appearance of the statue is definitely not those sharp-mouthed monsters, but more similar to humans.
Arthur guessed that this should be the statue of a god worshiped by this village or tribe. Arthur looked at the statue and felt as if he had seen it before.
"Perhaps Charlene knows her." Arthur thought and stretched out his hand to the statue.
At this moment, it seemed as if a huge projection was projected from the air into the body of the statue, and huge energy fluctuations instantly emitted from the wooden statue. The huge energy made Arthur feel a huge sense of oppression, and it seemed that the statue would come alive in the next second.
"Pretend to be a ghost!" The fighting spirit in Arthur's body surged, and he swung the Star fall giant sword and slashed at the head of the statue, trying to split it in half.
The statue really came alive at that moment. The hand across the chest was raised upwards, and the scepter in the other hand began to glow with a black halo.
Arthur's sword struck the raised hand of the statue, and with a snap, half of the wooden arm below the forearm fell to the ground.
The huge energy was still increasing rapidly. The oppressed Arthur could hardly stand up, let alone strike out a second sword. The end of the scepter in the statue's hand was already pointed at Arthur, and the black light on it flashing faster.
Arthur roared loudly, and all the fighting energy from his body spurted out. He resisted the pressure, rolled forward, grabbed half of his arm on the ground, and at the same time tore open the space magic scroll...
Charlene walked slowly around the room holding a tea cup. The magic halo that obscured her face when she was alone also disappeared, revealing a pretty face. A pair of bright eyes, shallow eyebrows, a small and straight bridge of nose and fair skin, a face like an angel.
A gap suddenly opened in front of Charlene. The gap continued to expand and emit a shining white light. The next second, Arthur fell out of the gap and fell to the floor.
Charlene shook her hand and the tea cup fell to the ground. The tea was scattered all over the floor, and she murmured: "You're actually back?"
Arthur lay on the ground and couldn't get up for a while, so he tried to raise his head, "Professor Charlene, it turns out you are so young!"
"Ah!" Charlene screamed, and the magic halo instantly covered her face.
"Are you surprised that I can come back?" Arthur obviously heard what Charlene whispered just now.
"No, it's great that you can come back. I've been waiting for you." Charlene hurriedly stepped forward and slowly helped Arthur up.
Arthur flipped his hand, and a large pile of things fell onto Charlene's table, including the body of a little monster.
Charlene was so shocked that she covered her mouth with one hand, she couldn't believe it.
Arthur sorted out his thoughts for a while and then described what he encountered in this trip to Charlene in detail. Charlene also interrupted from time to time and asked for many details.
Arthur's gains from this trip obviously far exceeded Charlene's expectations. Charlene was still immersed in thinking for a while after Arthur finished speaking.
"Thank you. You've worked hard on this trip. The bracelet is officially given to you. I promise you that I will contact you again in a few days."
Arthur said nothing more and stood directly in the middle of the magic circle.
"Wait a minute, there is one more thing..." Arthur suddenly spoke when Charlene was about to wave her hand to activate the magic circle, and Charlene's hand stopped in midair.
"Charlene, you are so beautiful!"
As soon as the light flashed, Arthur disappeared. Charlene was still stunned, her face turned red inexplicably.
When Arthur returned to the room excitedly, Arnold was not in the room, and there was a layer of dust in the room, as if no one had lived in it for a long time.
Arthur then went to knock on Moral's door, and a fat, white face poked out from behind the door.
Moral was stunned for a moment, then hugged Arthur, "Boss, you are finally back. I thought you were dead?"
"You just died, and you gained weight again just now." It took a lot of effort for Arthur to break free from Moral's embrace.
At this moment, Arthur saw Arnold, who was blocked by Moral's fat body, and said with a smile: "You are not in the room, I guess you are eating and drinking here at Moral."
Arno smiled shyly, "You are back, then I will pack my things and go back to our room now."
Arthur didn't notice that Arnold's eyes were wet as he turned around on the pretext of excuses.
"Boss, you came back at the perfect time. Can you teach me how to do this year's year-end assessment?" Moral did not ask Arthur where he had been during this time, but couldn't wait to ask for help.
"Are you sick? Didn't this year's year-end assessment just end?"
"Impossible, it hasn't started yet?" Moral looked confused when Arthur asked.
Arthur himself was confused, and Moral didn't look like he was joking at all.
Charlene's surprised expression, the dust in her room, and Moral's weight gain. Several things came together. Arthur suddenly realized something. He suddenly grabbed Moral's arm, "Tell me, How long have I been gone this time?"
"One year!"
