The two Magic Shooters were wreaking havoc there, and the others could only watch. It was not that they did not want to intervene, but they could not intervene at all. They had just aimed at a Skeletal Warrior, and before they could finish reciting the spell, the other two had already blasted a large area. How could they intervene? It was more like stabbing themselves …
In the eyes of the long-haired youth, this scene was like seeing a ghost. The Hell Ghouls that had almost forced him to a dead end were actually killed by them in an instant. Now, cleaning up the Skeletal Warriors was as easy as eating and drinking. Were these monster-like guys really mages who came to participate in the trial?
This trial team could only be described as strange. A level-nine mage and a level-eleven Magic Shooter were already terrifying enough. He did not expect the other one to be even more abnormal. He looked like a level-seven mage, but the strength he showed was even more terrifying than that of the level-eleven Magic Shooter. The Flame Nova that was released just now directly blew up more than a dozen Skeletal Warriors. After that, the bombardment of magic was like a monster, blasting the Skeletal Warriors all over the swamp. How could this kind of thing be done by a level-seven mage?
The more the long-haired youth watched, the more frightened he became. By the time the two of them had blasted hundreds of Skeletal Warriors into pieces, his eyes were already as big as a cow's eyes.
What kind of people are they …?
The long-haired youth swallowed his saliva with difficulty. He looked at the three of them as if he was looking at three monsters. Even when he spoke, there was some stuttering. "Thank … Thank you …"
"You're welcome." Lin Li smiled very modestly. As long as it did not endanger himself, he was very willing to be a Good Samaritan. Anyway, the long-haired youth had already controlled the group of Skeletal Warriors. He did not mind killing the Hell Ghouls along the way. Not only could he take advantage of it, but he could also gain a good reputation. Who would not be willing to do such a thing?
Of course …
If the Hell Ghouls were replaced by high-level Vampires or Death Knights, Lin Li would not mind it very much …
These level-17 or 18 Undead creatures could not be blown away with a round of magic. If they failed to castrate and were raped instead, it would be a big joke!
But no matter what, this Good Samaritan was still very successful.
The few mages who had survived the ordeal did not know that Lin Li had so many thoughts in his mind. To them, this young mage was a model of morality. In order to save the lives of others, he did not hesitate to put himself in danger. His entire being was exuding a noble quality of selflessness. In an instant, their gratitude could not be expressed in words. While the three of them were expressing their gratitude, Lin Li naturally took the opportunity to ask some questions.
With his status as his savior, he naturally got everything out of him.
Of course, Lin Li did not ask too much. He just wanted to know how the three of them encountered the Hell Ghoul.
"We're just too unlucky …" The long-haired young man's expression was extremely sorrowful and indignant.
Since they had been woken up, Lin Li and the others were not in a hurry. They found a place to sit down and slowly listened to the long-haired young man talk about his sorrowful and indignant encounter.
The long-haired young man's name was Larry. He came from the Mariana Guild, and was also a level-nine mage. However, his luck was much worse than Mason's. Mason's luck was indeed very good. He had two freakish teammates right from the start. This trial could be said to be smooth sailing. The two mentors' missions were completed beautifully. Even a nitpicky person like Macklin could not find any fault with them.
On the other hand, Larry was much more unlucky. Both of his teammates were level-eight mages. In this trial, it could be said that their strength was at the lowest level. Apart from Lin Li, who was a "level-seven" mage, they were probably the lowest level …
There were two level-eight mages and a level-nine mage. It was a tragedy for such a small team to complete the mentor's missions. In the past few days, they had not even completed a single mentor's mission. If they still could not achieve good results in the Shadowglen this time, they might not even be qualified to participate in the finals.
Hearing this, Lin Li more or less understood.
It was no wonder that they did not want to use the Teleportation Scroll in such a dangerous situation. To them, this Shadowglen mission was their last chance.
Speaking of this, Larry could not help but be indignant.
Larry knew that his team was too weak, so from the beginning, he had decided to hide for a while. After all, this mission was evaluated based on the length of time. As long as they could hide for one more day, their trial evaluation would increase by one point. If they were extremely lucky and could hide for seven days, just the evaluation of this mission alone would be enough for them to participate in the finals.
Unfortunately, with the accompaniment of bad luck, they almost did not even make it through the first day.
After entering the Shadowglen, Larry wholeheartedly looked for a place to hide. He had some ability in this aspect. Along the way from the outside of the Shadowglen, he carefully avoided the Undead creatures. He actually managed to find his way to the middle of the Shadowglen without any danger. Then, he chose the same path as Lin Li …
Similarly, he used the Warlock's Eyes to open the way, and similarly chose the cave under the cliff.
However, their encounter was completely different.
The three of them were cautious along the way. After much difficulty, they finally found their way to the vicinity of the cave. Yet, they did not know what happened, but they bumped into a Hell Ghoul head-on. At this moment, Larry really wanted to die. Other than lamenting his bad luck, Larry really did not know what to say. The Warlock's Eyes searched repeatedly, but did not find any traces of Undead creatures. Yet, when they walked up, they suddenly bumped into a Hell Ghoul …
"Where did you bump into it?" Lin Li was a little puzzled.
"It's not far from the cave." Larry pointed with his finger. The location he mentioned was about less than 10 meters away from the cave. At this point, Larry's expression became a little puzzled. "It seemed to be looking for something …"
Lin Li was shocked. "Looking for something?"
"Yes, it summoned 20 Skeletal Warriors at that time, and they were very far apart from each other. They seemed to be searching for something …" Larry continued with a puzzled expression. "When we found it, it was already too late to escape. The 20 Skeletal Warriors quickly surrounded us, and then … we could only call for help."
"I see …" Lin Li nodded, and did not continue to ask. He was still very curious in his heart. What was the Hell Ghoul looking for?
Undead creatures were not like magical beasts. They could not track their enemies by smell. What could attract them was only the breath of life. However, when they hid in the cave, he had clearly set up the Life Concealment Ward. Under the shielding of the Master-level Life Concealment Ward, not to mention the Hell Ghoul, even a high-ranking Vampire could not track him through the breath of life. How could a Hell Ghoul do so?
Could it be … related to that crystal again?
Lin Li was shocked by this sudden thought.
Thinking of that crystal, Lin Li thought of the wisp of black mist that gushed out after the Hell Ghoul was smashed …
That wisp of black mist carried a strong death aura. When it flowed into the crystal, Lin Li could even clearly feel that the aura exuded by the crystal was actually the same as that of the Hell Ghoul. The dark red light also became deeper and darker because of the black mist …
This crystal was really too strange.
Lin Li felt that he had to find time to study it properly. Otherwise, it would cause some trouble sooner or later if he carried it with him without knowing why.
"If you don't have a place to stay tonight …" After making up his mind, Lin Li saw that it was getting late, and hesitated a little. "Let's stay in the cave for the night. If there's anything else, we'll talk about it tomorrow."
"That's great!" Larry and the others had been on tenterhooks for the whole day. They were blocked by the Hell Ghoul in the middle of the night, and besieged by hundreds of Skeletal Warriors. They were already so tired that their eyes were blank. Now that Lin Li had taken the initiative to invite them, how could he refuse? Moreover … they had just witnessed the ability of this trial team. It was simply abnormally strong, especially the "level-7" mage who was talking to them. He was the most abnormal of all. Larry reckoned that he would not lose out even if he were to be compared to the legendary top magic genius of Felan, Gryffindor.
It was a good thing that such a powerful person was willing to protect him. How could Larry be so foolish to refuse?
This battle had delayed too much time. When they returned to the cave, the campfire had already been extinguished. There was only darkness in the cave. Only two mageweaths at the entrance of the cave were emitting a dim light in the night.
