"You can go by yourself. We'll just wait here. "A male acolyte said with an ugly expression.
Worry was written all over her face.
'Mission simulation completed. Mentality consumed 2 points. The basic model of the Stun spell has been established. One point of mentality will be consumed for each spell. One point of mana will be consumed. '
Marlene stood up after a while. Marlene stood up. "We can't just stay here. We need to help Khedira kill that woman. The Green Fairies are the magic pets of the top wizards in the Northland Alliance. A wizard with a Green Fairy is definitely not an average wizard! "
Mana was the name given to the elemental energy particles Angele absorbed into his body. It was also the energy needed by wizards to cast spells.
Suddenly, they heard birds chirping from the left.
They returned to the entrance of the valley quickly.
Angele opened his eyes and looked at the grass on the ground. Thin blue strings appeared in Angele's pupils. The strings were changing rapidly, creating complicated patterns in front of Angele's eyes.
The owl's eyes were long and black, and its feathers were whiter than snow. He stood motionlessly on the rock, looking down at everyone. It gave them the feeling that it wasn't an owl watching them, but a living person watching them.
"We still have more than ten days to go before we reach the school. I hope everyone can take turns to keep watch. We need to prevent the wizards from catching up with us, "Griffia said in a low voice.
They walked for a long time, but Marlene did not catch up. It seemed like she returned to the valley alone.
'Mission simulation started. Mentality consumed is estimated to be 2 points. Time: 30 minutes, 'Zero's mechanical voice echoed in Angele's mind.
"We'll die without a corpse if we go!" The two stood up and shouted at each other.
Angele leaned against the tree trunk. Angele pulled the collar of his gray robe to cover his neck.
"Check my data status," Angele said.
There were no messy marks on the yellow-green grass either.
"What do you know? If Khedira dies, none of us will be able to escape from that woman! "Marlene yelled.
Angele remained silent and listened to the discussion.
It seemed like Marlene wanted to say something.
He blinked his eyes and heaved a sigh of relief. His face revealed an unusually tired expression.
It seemed that a battle between wizards could only be decided by spells. At that time, if Senior Khedira had not broken the illusion, everyone would have been killed by the Green Fairies one by one in the illusion.
Everyone raised their heads and looked in the direction of the voice.
'I need to build the mentality model right away. At least I'll be able to protect myself,' Angele thought.
"Zero, simulate and establish the spell model."
"That's right. There's only one town along the way that we can resupply. For the rest of the time, we can only rely on ourselves to hunt."
Angele listened quietly without saying a word. He just sat by the campfire without saying a word.
Angele stood up and walked to a large tree. He sat down and leaned against the trunk. He pretended to be thinking alone. His eyes were looking at the acolytes who were discussing, but in reality, he was communicating with the A.I. Chip.
"Thank you, Oreo." Griffiths nodded at him. "But there's still a long way to go before we reach the academy. We have to think about eating and drinking."
"Return to the school now!" Angele spoke in a deep tone. "The guards here should have been dealt with by the other party. There's nothing we can do even if we stay. "
Angele realized that the only way to deal with spells was to use his own spells. When he entered the valley, he had already finished studying the two spells. Angele decided not to wait until he finished studying all the spells. He decided to start studying one of the spells first. Also, he wanted to become a rank 3 wizard apprentice and become a formal wizard.
"I think Senior Khedira asked us to leave first. It's obvious that we can't help the three wizards," Griffiths said calmly. "Even if we go back, we won't be able to help them. I suggest we go outside and inform senior Khedira's family knights, "Griffiths said.
However, he was actually checking the information recorded by the chip. He was also organizing his personal information.
The owl flapped its wings and flew away from the stone. A small whirlwind suddenly appeared beside it.
"White owl … Northland Alliance! It's the wizards from the Northland Alliance! "Marlene suddenly thought of something and panicked. Her face turned pale, and she raised her wand and aimed it at the owl. "Harius!" she yelled in a high-pitched voice.
A male acolyte carefully scattered some black seed-like granules around the bonfire.
"Yes! That's the best way. "The pale male wizard apprentice agreed.
"That's not a problem. I often …"
"Choose Stun," Angele said. He had been meditating for the past few days, but he did not build any spell models. Instead, he spent most of his time studying the basic knowledge. He had already purchased the necessary basic knowledge for the two spells he chose in advance. Angele used the time he spent on the road to transfer the knowledge to the chip. He was very familiar with the spell models.
Everyone except Marlene agreed to this suggestion.
The four of them seemed to have recovered from the worry of being chased by the wizards. They started discussing other things.
"Mission created. Known spell models: 1. Hand of Exhaustion. 2. Stun. Please choose. "
Angele and the other male wizard apprentice did not say anything. The male wizard apprentice who scattered the seeds around the campfire sat down. "I scattered some Flash Seeds around the campfire. If someone comes within 100 meters of the campfire, they will explode. It can be used as a warning. "
They walked around the entrance of the valley, but they did not find anything.
Angele raised his longbow and shot an arrow into the sky.
A snow-white owl was standing on a protruding rock on the side of the mountain. It was staring at them quietly.
The other wizard apprentices quickly followed.
* Coo *
Angele finally understood the true power of a formal wizard after today's encounter. Right now, he could not even withstand a single blow from an official Magus. The chip could only increase his survivability by a little bit. The Green Fairy was a monster that could ignore arrows. Angele could not do much damage.
"We need to get out of here!" Griffia yelled. Her chest was moving up and down, but no one was in the mood to appreciate the temptation. She was the one who threw the flying dagger.
After about half an hour, the blue lines in front of Angele's eyes slowly disappeared.
The arrow and the flying dagger were blown away by the wind and hit the wall nearby. The green slime ball twisted and smashed into the rock behind the owl. Green smoke rose from the surface of the rock.
"The Northland Alliance is involved. It's not a simple revenge mission. We need to report this to the higher-ups," another female wizard apprentice said. "But we didn't hear anything. I think they let us go on purpose to report to the higher-ups. Otherwise, with the speed of a formal wizard, they would have caught up with us by now. "
"Where are they?" Marlene had become the leader of the wizard apprentices. She had an enchanted item, so she was the strongest wizard apprentice. No one had any objections.
They walked until night fell. Everyone let down their guard a little. They were sure that no one was chasing them.
"If that's the case, let's go to the outskirts of the valley." Marlene walked toward the direction they came from.
The other wizard apprentices sitting by the campfire did not notice anything.
Marlene raised her wand and threw it at the owl. The small green ball was flung out by inertia, drawing a faint green arc in the air as it flew towards the white owl.
Angele noticed that something was wrong. He pulled out a black arrow and nocked it on his bow. He slowly pulled the bowstring back.
The tip of the wand glowed green as he chanted the incantation. A green slime appeared on the tip of the wand and turned into a green ball. It was about the size of a fist.
The rest of the wizard apprentices followed suit. No one paid attention to Marlene anymore.
Angele sat around the campfire with a map in his hand. He tried to figure out where they were based on the route they took. The light from the fire made his face look red. The others also took out their own maps to compare.
Marlene's face was pale. She held her wand tightly and bit her lips without saying a word.
The sky was dark. The gray wooden fence at the entrance of the valley was still there. However, the swordsmen who were guarding the entrance were nowhere to be seen.
It was not a short distance from the valley to the school. They had to pass through a large forest on the way. If there were wizards chasing after them, they would be able to catch up quickly. However, it seemed like the wizards did not care about them. There was no movement behind them.
Angele finally realized how strong a formal wizard was when facing a wizard apprentice.
With a coo, the owl quickly flew into the valley and disappeared around a corner.
At the same time, a silver flying dagger flew out from the crowd.
The surroundings were dark, and Angele could hear strange noises coming from the insects.
"It's your business if you like Cadillacs! Don't drag us into this! "Griffia yelled.
There were more than ten people in the team when they left, but there were only five of them when they returned.
"Alright, let's go. We've been discovered by the owl. If we don't leave now, we won't be able to. "Angele did not want to waste time with Griffia. He took out a map, found the direction of the school, and left quickly.
In the air around him, an indescribable undulation that only official Magi could feel was slowly increasing.
Constructing a spell model would consume a lot of mentality. Even if the spell model failed, the mentality would not return to the body. Angele did not start the spell model yet. Originally, he thought that with the A.I. Chip and his archery skills, he would be able to survive this mission. However, he did not expect to meet a powerful enemy like an official Magus.
