Chapter 268 Hell Ghost Vine

"The bookshelf has moved?!"

As soon as this was said, everyone stood back to back and waited for the opportunity.

Unconsciously, everyone had already gone deep into it.

Surrounded by a circle of bookshelves.

"What is that?"

Suddenly, Alang pointed at the bookshelf in front of him and said in horror.

Ethan looked in the direction of the sound and saw a black vine on the bookshelf with dead branches.

In a blink of an eye, it covered the two nearby bookshelves.

"Oh no, this vine might be the culprit."

Ethan shot out a thread of thought, which passed through the bookshelf and held it tightly.

"If I'm not mistaken, there should also be a forbidden insect book here, similar to the monster book on the first floor. It can absorb forbidden botanical knowledge and evolve."

Quinn also nodded: "I have seen this kind of vine in a book. It seems to be called 'Hell Ghost Vine'. It can grow in the dark and likes to use human flesh as fertilizer.

Once it is entangled, the thorns in the vine will extend. This thorn is highly poisonous and almost impossible to break free."

"It seems that those bookshelves were moved by them just now!"

"We have to find a way to break through!"

"Start here first!"

Ethan pointed to the bookshelf in front of Bidwen.

This bookshelf is the farthest from the Hell Ghost Vine. It will take some time for the Hell Ghost Vine to reach here.

Ethan made a quick decision, and a slightly thicker thin wire popped out from his left hand to pull the bookshelf.

"Lisa!"

"Got it!"

Lisa raised her two-handed sword tacitly, ran at a very fast speed, jumped high when she was about to reach the bookshelf, raised the sword high, and then fell heavily.

"Boom!"

A cloud of dust swirled around.

When the dust settled, the bookshelf opposite was shattered, and even a big hole appeared on the floor, but more dazzling black vines replaced it.

"Ah!"

"We are completely surrounded."

Ethan waved his hands, and outside the seven people, fine and sharp thoughts fell from top to bottom, covering everyone.

Birdcage~

Ethan developed a new technique, which he had used once before.

But this time it was bigger than the birdcage he had used before.

"Everyone, don't walk out of the range of the thoughts I laid, wait for the vines to attack, don't act rashly."

At this time, the vines began to slowly approach from all directions.

Everyone was helpless.

There was no way to deal with this kind of guy who attacked in a large area, and a rash counterattack would be easily swallowed by the opponent.

And Ethan was waiting for the opportunity.

The first vine tentatively climbed up the birdcage.

Ethan did not move.

The second vine began to become bold.

The third...

The fourth...

...

The vines began to climb all over the birdcage.

Everyone could only vaguely see the light outside through the gap in the middle.

Ethan wiped the sweat from his forehead.

He was waiting for the opportunity.

Waiting for more vines to climb up the birdcage.

Finally, a vine began to become dishonest, and a black thorn stretched out from the front of the vine.

Ethan's eyes lit up.

Now!

"Rotate the birdcage!"

"Swish!"

Almost in an instant, the rotating mind thread cut off all the vines on it.

And the surging vines behind attacked the range of the birdcage one after another.

The result was that they all turned into debris.

The birdcage turned faster and faster, and even Ethan himself could no longer see the shadow of the mind thread.

However, this rotation was a test of his mind power.

To rotate the birdcage requires very good mind control and a lot of mind support.

So even though it only turned for a while, Ethan's forehead began to sweat.

Finally, the vines stopped moving forward.

"Awesome."

"Boss, you are awesome."

...

Ethan was not interested in listening to their praise at this time, because human power is limited, and he could not hold on to this state for long.

He decisively stopped spinning and took a long breath.

After a few breaths.

The vine explored forward again.

"This vine is really difficult to deal with."

"Is it endless?"

At this time, Quinn responded with a wry smile: "Legend has it that the Hell Ghost Vine is transformed from the branches and leaves of the Death God Tree. The leaves take root when they fall to the ground and become the Hell Ghost Vine. A Death God Tree can grow the Hell Ghost Vine into a forest..."

"What? A forest...?"

Ethan was shocked and looked into the distance with his excellent eyesight.

Sure enough, the roots of the Hell Ghost Vine had already spread all over the second floor.

But they were all hidden under the floor, so no one noticed it at all.

"Swish~"

A dark vine suddenly rushed in front of Ethan.

They seemed to understand that the previous rotating birdcage was Ethan's work.

"I declare... you guilty."

Ethan made a prompt decision and used his talent directly.

"Hu~"

Yellow, cyan, blue, purple.

Four-color flames ignited on the vines.

It really worked.

The vines gradually became weak in the four-color flames, and then slowly withered, as if the energy was absorbed by the flames.

It soon disappeared.

"Shua shua shua~"

Just as everyone was happy, a sound came from under the floor again.

Everyone looked at each other.

Ethan in particular, "A little echo pattern" could clearly capture this sound, and then feedback the scene where the sound came from.

The floor was full of hell ghost vines.

"The Death God Tree, with fallen leaves and roots, has a strong reproductive capacity. Eliminating the Hell Ghost Vine can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause."

Quinn's explanation made Ethan's heart sink.

"We must find the Death God Tree as soon as possible. Only by finding it can we completely cut off the vitality of the vines and curb their reproduction speed."

The vine that he had punished in the previous "Sin and Punishment" was just one of the thousands of vines. For the vines hidden under the entire floor, this is simply a drop in the bucket.

The most important thing is to find the Death God Tree.

According to his guess, there must be a taboo insect book similar to the monster book on the second floor of the library.

The Death God Tree must be controlled by the taboo insect book.

So we must find the taboo insect book first.

"Ka Ka Ka~"

Just at this time, crisp footsteps suddenly sounded.

The footsteps came from far away and rushed here.

It should be Lisa's full-strength attack with the big sword just now, which caused a lot of noise. Later, everyone confronted the Hell Ghost Vine again, which must have attracted the skeleton.

There are wolves in front and tigers behind.

Just when Ethan was extremely anxious, the hell ghost vine under the floor was silent...

Hmm?

This caught Ethan's attention.

Is the hell ghost vine afraid of the skeleton?

He quickly signaled everyone to hide, but he was wondering why the vine was afraid of the skeleton.

"Heh... Heh..."

The skeleton walked to the bookshelf that was knocked down by Lisa, still holding the lantern in his left hand and limping.

Everyone could hear her rapid breathing, but didn't know what she was saying.

But Ethan understood it with the help of "a little echo pattern".

She was cursing in English: "Whoever pushed down the bookshelf, she must punish him to clean the toilet if she catches him."

Ethan was dumbfounded.

Inadvertently, Ethan caught a glimpse of a pattern on the skeleton's torn clothes.

The pattern was a shield with four animals painted on it: snake, badger, eagle, and lion.

This was a bit familiar.

Isn't it the same pattern he saw in the secret room where he swore to join the Order of the Phoenix?

This pattern comes from the emblem of the Ruins Magic Academy.

It seems that this skeleton should be the librarian of the Magic Academy!

Why is the Hell Ghost Vine afraid of this skeleton?
