Witcher: I Can Extract Everything Chapter 380 - Camp

Chapter 380 Camp

After making the decision, Heath immediately followed Al and Rose to their tribe. Along the way, Heath also got a general understanding of the current generation through Al and Rose.

According to them, this generation was called the Nightmare Forest because it was filled with something called Nightmares. It seemed to be a creature or something, but Heath wasn’t sure yet.

However, from the description of Al and the others, it seemed to be a very terrifying substance. When the two of them mentioned the Nightmare, Heath noticed that their expressions had changed greatly.

“We have to return to the tribe before sunset, Sir Wizard. Otherwise, the Nightmare will come.”

“No one is willing to face the Nightmare. Believe us, even a Wizard would avoid the Nightmare.”

The tribe they were going to was on the west side of the forest. It was called the Achute Tribe. It was said that the first person who built this camp was a Wizard. With the help of that Wizard, they had this place to rest. After that, they named the tribe after the Wizard.

After walking around the forest for more than two hours, Heath followed Al and the others to the west side of the Achute Tribe.

From a distance, the tribe was built on a small hill. The tribe was surrounded by a low strategic low stone wall made of crushed stones. A circle of sharpened logs was inserted around the stone wall to form a fence.

There was a large door in front of them. There were two arrow towers on both sides of the door. It looked like it was heavily guarded, as if this place was often attacked.

“Huh? These stone walls…”

Heath suddenly stopped when he arrived at the gate of the camp. His sight fell on the stone walls.

These walls looked like rough stone walls built randomly. However, when he got closer, Heath could clearly feel a strong elemental wave from them.

“What’s wrong, Sir Wizard?”

Seeing Heath stop, Al and Rose who were walking beside him also stopped and turned to look at Heath.

Heath was puzzled. “Did you build these stone walls?”

Al nodded. “Yes, Sir Wizard. These are the warriors of our tribe. We worked together to build them. It took us more than sixty moons to build them.”

Heath picked up the stone and touched it. It was an ordinary stone. After leaving this area, it immediately lost its elemental fluctuations.

“It seems to be coming from below?”

After carefully feeling it, Heath noticed that the elemental fluctuations were coming from underground. It was as if something was releasing elements from underground. It rose straight up and formed an elemental wall in the air.

Heath asked, “Do you know what’s under this stone?”

Al thought for a moment and said, “That was left behind by the Wizard. It’s a circle. The Wizard said that this circle can ensure that we are not eroded by Nightmares. The stones behind us are piled up according to this circle.”

Heath suddenly understood.

According to Al, the situation was clear at a glance. There was probably a magic array below. It was probably used to resist the so-called ‘Nightmares’ in the forest.

This made Heath come to a conclusion. Although he did not know what the Nightmares outside were, he would definitely meet these Nightmares in the future when he walked in the forest. Now, he could use the magic array left by the Wizard to determine the main purpose of these magic arrays, and then deduce the ident.i.ty of the Nightmares outside. At the very least, he would be able to figure out their weaknesses and so on in case he would be fl.u.s.tered when he encountered them in the future.

Heath said, “Can I take a look at these patterns?”

Al hesitated. “This…”

The tribesmen in the tribe had spent a lot of effort to build these. Their entire tribe’s safety was on these walls. Even if Heath had saved him, he did not dare to rashly agree to Heath’s request.

Seeing this, Heath quickly said, “Oh, I’m being rude. Forget it, I’m just curious. It’s nothing important.”

He could use magic to secretly tear down the stone wall at night and restore it later. With his ability, he could do it without anyone knowing. There was no need to force him.

Al let out a sigh of relief and quickly said, “I’m very sorry, Sir Wizard. This stone wall is related to the safety of our race. I don’t dare to rashly promise you anything…”

Heath nodded. “I understand, I understand.”

Then, the few of them continued to walk into the camp. When they got close to the camp gate, they heard two berating voices from afar.

“Intruders! Intruders! Everyone, get up quickly!” “Be on guard! Be on guard!”

The anxious shouts rang out, and the entire camp was thrown into chaos. Small people could be seen running around the camp. For a time, the sound of clanking rang out continuously. Not long after… a large group of Underground Gnomes with long hair gathered at the entrance of the camp. The Underground Gnomes who were stepping on the ground also picked up their weapons and pointed them at Heath, as if they were facing a great enemy.

“I’m very sorry, Sir Wizard. We are often attacked by the forest, so the tribe is always in a state of tension. When they see you coming, they may think that you are an enemy.”

To ordinary humans or Wizards, Heath was a friendly species. But to the Underground Gnomes, Heath, who was several times larger than them, was no different from the beasts in the forest. They were all monsters that could attack their camp or even cause great damage.

“What are you doing? What are you doing? It’s me! It’s me and Rose! D*mn it, keep quiet!”

“Ah, it’s Al, it’s Al who’s back!”

“It’s Al and Rose!”

An older-looking Underground Gnome rushed out from the camp. After confirming that it was indeed Al, he quickly gave the order to de-alert the camp. The originally nervous mood in the camp suddenly relaxed.

Everyone immediately went forward and completely entered the camp.

Although when he looked outside, Heath felt that this camp looked very small, but when they really got close to it, he could feel that it was small and exquisite. The entire camp was decorated with a certain number of small houses and tents.

These houses and tents were very exquisite and unique. The largest one looked like it was only the height of a table, just like a large toy.

Underground Gnomes like Al and Rose, who were only as tall as Heath’s calf, shuttled back and forth in the camp, doing all kinds of things. At first glance, it was as if he had walked into a small country in a fairytale world.

Just as Heath was surprised, Al’s companions had also come forward to welcome them.

The leader was the old Underground Gnome who had given the order to disarm his companions. He walked over from afar and shouted at Al, “Al!”

Al also greeted him, “Elder Albert.”

Albert frowned and asked, “What’s going on with you and Rose? Didn’t you go to collect Three-Eyed Mushrooms? Why are you only back now?”

On the way, Heath had heard Al mention that he and Rose appeared in the forest to collect a plant called the Three-Eyed Mushroom. This was an item that they would use in their tribe’s sacrificial ceremony.

Al quickly said, “We were attacked. It was the Nightmare Damask. Rose and I almost couldn’t come back. It was thanks to the help of Sir Wizard…”

As he spoke, he roughly told Albert what had happened.

When he heard Al mention the word ‘Wizard’, Albert’s eyes clearly lit up. His gaze immediately focused on Heath, and the friendliness and grat.i.tude in his eyes were obvious.

Previously, Heath had heard al mention that their tribe had almost been wiped out when they were in danger. In the end, a Wizard who happened to pa.s.s by saved them and moved their entire tribe here. Before he left, he even built a layer of protection for their tribe, so the entire tribe felt heartfelt grat.i.tude towards the Wizard. At this moment, he heard Al say that the one who saved him was another Wizard, Albert naturally had a good impression of him.

Thus, after Al finished his story, Albert hurriedly walked towards Heath. He bowed and said, “I am an Elder of the Achute Tribe. Thank you very much for your help, Sir Wizard. You saved Al and Rose. You are the benefactor of the entire Achute Tribe.”

Heath politely said, “It’s just a small matter. You don’t have to take it to heart.”

Albert was about to say something, but before he could finish, a violent cough came from the side. Al’s body shook and he almost fell to the ground. Rose quickly supported him. “Cough! Cough! Cough!” “Al, Al, how are you? Don’t scare me! Sir Wizard, Sir Wizard, please look at Al. What’s wrong with Al?”

Rose was obviously frightened and quickly shouted to Heath.

Heath walked over and let Al sit on the ground. Then he stretched out his spiritual power to check, took out a dagger to pierce Alls skin, and squeezed out some blood to observe for a while.

Then he explained, “Nothing, it’s just that the poison hasn’t been completely removed. In addition to the previous injury, his body is a bit weak and needs more rest. My magic potion can only help him get rid of most of the poison, and cannot help him recover his body. If he wants to fully recover, he needs to rest for a while.”

Rose let out a sigh of relief.

Heath then said to Albert, “Your clansman was seriously injured. I suggest we don’t stand here. He needs a quiet place to rest.”

Albert quickly said, “Okay, okay. Rose, take your husband back to rest. Leave Sir Wizard to

me.”

“Yes, Elder.”

Rose agreed and quickly left with Al. It could be seen that Al still wanted to express his grat.i.tude to Heath, but his body was not very comfortable, so he did not have the strength.

Before leaving, Al still tried very hard to say to Heath, “Sir Wizard, please wait for me for two days. I will take you to the forest after I have rested.”

On the way, Heath had already explained to Al that he needed two guides, and Al agreed without hesitation. After all, this Underground Gnome was also thinking about how to repay Heath for saving his life.

Heath smiled and said, “It’s okay. You should rest first, Al. I’m not in a hurry here.”

Since he had already come here, he might as well stay here for two days. When he entered this area, Heath had noticed that there were many plants around that he had never extracted before. Heath planned to use this camp as the center. He wanted to extract all the plants around so that he could increase his strength.

Al and Rose left.

Albert said, “Sir Wizard, please follow me. I’ll arrange a place for you. I’ll get the tribesmen to prepare it.”

Heath looked at the small tents around him and said, “There’s no need to trouble yourself. Just find me an empty s.p.a.ce. I have my own place.”

The largest room here was only the size of a cabinet. It was difficult to fit Heath’s legs, let alone live in it. For such an Underground Gnome tribe… Heath was like a giant here. How could they find a place for him to live?

Albert hesitated. “This…”

Heath smiled. “Elder, don’t worry. I’m a Wizard. Magic is my forte, isn’t it?”

As he spoke, he spread out his hand, and rays of light suddenly bloomed in his palm. The rays of light interweaved and rotated in his palm, continuously combining into various

things.

Albert’s eyes were dazzled. “Oh! Magic, it’s magic!”

The Underground Gnomes nearby who saw this scene also gathered over. Every Underground Gnome exclaimed from the bottom of their hearts.

“Magic, oh! It’s magic!”

“What a beautiful beam of light! It can change! Is that the power of a Wizard?”

“It’s even more powerful than the shaman!”

These Underground Gnome did not come into contact with magic many times. The last time they hosted a Wizard was a long time ago. At that time, many of their clansmen were not even born yet.

Seeing that, Albert did not hesitate anymore. He nodded and said, “Okay, in that case, please follow me.”

Then, Heath followed Albert all the way to an empty s.p.a.ce on the left side of the camp, about the size of a basketball court.

Albert pointed at the empty s.p.a.ce and said, “This is the place where the warriors of our tribe used to train. But now, we have smoothed out an empty s.p.a.ce for training. This empty s.p.a.ce is vacant. Sir Wizard, you can use it as you please. Is it enough?”

Heath nodded. “It’s more than enough.”

Then he took out two beans from his pocket and prepared to cast a spell.

In an instant, Albert and the Underground Gnomes around him looked over curiously. They all wanted to know how Heath was going to conjure a house out of thin air…
