Versatile Mage: Thunderstorm

Chapter 185 Li Yu: I will give you a good reason

"What? There is still a commander?"

When Li Yu brought the information back, it had been less than ten minutes. Everyone thought he had forgotten something, but they didn't expect it to be a big news as soon as he opened his mouth.

If the nearly three thousand sea monkey monsters and nearly two hundred general-level red-ling monsters can be dealt with, then the leader will be a very troublesome existence for everyone.

There are not even a few high-level wizards among the people present, and even fewer who can cast high-level magic. The chances of a single person winning against a commander-level demon are almost zero.

Perhaps the tactic of using the entire team to encircle and attack could achieve the kill, but where would this approach put the group of miscellaneous Chi Ling Yao soldiers?

"Wait, how did you complete the investigation in such a short time?"

Guan Yu looked at Li Yu with suspicion, not because he was looking for trouble on purpose, but as a speed-type mage, Guan Yu understood more deeply how time-consuming it would be to complete the exploration mission of the four islands. Not only did he need to maintain speed, but he also needed to avoid the vigilance and perception of the demons.

Even if he personally went into battle, the sirens would be blind if he could take over an outer island in 20 minutes.

"Also, the Red Lingyao are very vigilant, right? The leader of the demons is at the core of the tribe. How did you get in?"

After Guan Yu's reminder, the others came to their senses, and various emotions including curiosity and questioning appeared in their eyes. After all, what Guan Yu said was not nonsense, but a real problem.

"You want to know?"

Li Yu asked back. Seeing his attitude, Mo Fan felt secretly happy.
"There's a good show to watch."

Here, after hearing Li Yu's question, Guan Yu nodded confidently and said:

"Isn't that the explanation you should give?"

Li Yu nodded.

"Indeed."

"so……"

"are you ready?"

Hearing this, Guan Yu's heart skipped a beat and he became secretly alert.

"What preparation?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a hand that was not strong but very powerful was placed on Guan Yu's shoulder, and the latter heard Li Yu's voice that was neither sad nor happy.
“Is this explanation sufficient?”

Guan Yu, who was frightened by the sudden attack from behind and broke out in a cold sweat, wanted to turn around, but found that he could not move at all. He looked back at Li Yu's position, and the other party was still standing there. Everyone focused their eyes on Li Yu in amazement, and the pressure from behind disappeared.

"So fast!"

In the silent venue, someone expressed everyone's thoughts.

At this moment, none of these chosen ones from all over the world dared to look down on this person who "got in through the back door". In such a narrow and closed space, with the speed shown by Li Yu, if he had the intention to kill them, he could make them reincarnate without any resistance.

Only Mo Fan, who had been chased and hacked before, had a stronger endurance, but he was still shocked by Li Yu's sudden increase in speed.

"Are you satisfied with this explanation?"

Faced with everyone's silence, Li Yu reiterated his answer once again.

Ai Jiangtu was the first to express his attitude and changed the subject:

"Now let's study how to catch all these red-ling monsters in one fell swoop."

"Yeah."

The others also echoed with expressions of approval.

……

ten minutes later.

Li Yu once again appeared on the broken island in the center and stood on a fairly sturdy coconut tree. This kind of tree seemed to be very common on the islands in this sea area, and was also a common hiding place for the sea monkey monsters, a vassal race of the Red Ling Demon. But since this was the Red Ling Demon's territory, the sea monkey monsters were normally not qualified to enter, and Li Yu was spared the effort of cleaning up the corpses.

"Half an hour? Wait a moment."

Due to the need to weaken the Red Lingyao's combat power and capture all these warriors in one fell swoop, everyone's final decision was to lure the Red Lingyao race to the shore, and then have Mu Ningxue, who has the strongest ice power, freeze the sea area near the island.

As for the task of attracting the Red Ling Monster to the shore, it was also eventually won by Li Yu who escaped the fastest. With the speed shown by Li Yu, even if the Red Ling Monster tribe and the leader were dispatched together, it would be wishful thinking to catch Li Yu's tail. In the absence of Li Yu's objection, Ai Jiangtu handed the task to the former without hesitation.

As for how to lure the Chi Ling Monster ashore, it depends on Li Yu's personal performance. Who doesn't know how to stir up trouble?

Observing the few red-ling monsters basking in the sun, Li Yu's eyes shone with a dangerous light.
"Having that leader killed once should be enough to drive these beasts to their limits, right?"

The leader should be thankful that he has no intention of killing it with one blow for the time being.

As time passed, Li Yu could sense from afar that the temperature of the sea water in the entire sea area was dropping sharply.
"Finally we can start."

It's hunting time.

Li Yu waved his hand, and a green long sword appeared in his hand.
"The blood of several warriors is used to sharpen the blade. Although the quality is a bit low, the conditions are limited, so we'll just have to make do with it for now."

"Wind track afterimage."

A green breeze blew, and five afterimages appeared, appearing simultaneously in the group of red ling monsters only twenty meters apart. The green sword light smoothly cut through the space, cutting off the fragile neck of the red ling monster. Several huge fish heads fell to the ground. There was no distortion of pain in their eyes, but more confusion. They didn't know why they died so easily.

Before the bloody smell had a chance to drift into the cave where the red ling monster lived with the help of the sea breeze, Li Yu's figure continued to move forward, passing the red ling monsters that were almost gathered together, and reached the core position of the cave without any hindrance. That was the best position in the entire cave. At a time when other red ling monsters were almost crowded together, Li Yu could actually occupy a large open space alone. His status was self-evident.

Compared with other red ling monsters, the commander-level red crack monster is not much larger, only four or five meters tall, but its appearance is much better than that of the red ling monster.

Unlike the fins and scales that retain a lot of fish characteristics, the Red Rift Demon is wearing thick red armor, and its sturdy claws are flashing with a terrifying cold light. It is obvious at first glance that it has quite strong melee strength.

Perhaps because there were some younger brothers keeping watch outside, the red cracked demon was not very alert. He lay on the stone platform with his eyes closed and slept soundly, exposing his neck, which made Li Yu want to chop him with a knife.

"If I had known earlier, I would have asked them to block the door outside."

Li Yu had a beautiful idea. He planned to behead the defenseless red-splitting monster from the inside with a single sword, and then take advantage of the fact that the red-ling monsters in the cave were leaderless, and then all the team members would attack directly and wipe out all the sea monsters.

Of course, this is to ensure that this cave half buried in the sea has no other exit.

The red cracked demon was originally sleeping soundly, but suddenly his instinct from years of fighting between life and death made him feel a little cold on his head. He looked up subconsciously and saw a green sword cutting through the air and stabbing straight towards him. The red cracked demon, who was scared to death, was in a panic and was pierced through the chest by the sword.

The scarlet cracked demon endured the pain and forced himself to retreat, pulling his body out of the sword. Looking at the attacker's pitiful expression, he couldn't help but burst into anger. Were the two holes on the foreheads of these demons under his command used to vent their anger?
The enemy actually let them get all the way here!
What made him even more terrified was that in front of this long sword, the scales he was so proud of were actually cut through easily by the opponent!

"Ouch~~~~"

The furious red cracked monster let out a series of fierce howls, awakening the originally confused red ling monsters. They were still confused and hadn't even figured out the situation yet. A group of red ling monsters bumped into each other and made a few meaningless calls.

"what happened?"

"The boss is calling us!"

"You bunch of idiots, did you know that humans have invaded?!"

"..."

When facing the external enemy, the Red Ling Monster tribe showed amazing unity and reaction speed. In less than a minute, the entire cave was surrounded by hundreds of Red Ling Monsters. The leading Red Rift Monster looked at Li Yu with a grim smile.

"Ouch~~~~~"

Damn human, you are so bold as to come to my territory and cause trouble. You won’t get out alive.

Even if the high priest comes, it won’t work, I’m telling you!

Li Yu was not worried at all about being surrounded. He even had the idea of ​​slaughtering all the monsters on the spot. But after thinking about it, he decided to give his teammates a sense of participation. He gave up this spur-of-the-moment idea and decided to execute according to the established policy.

"Goodbye."

With an extremely exaggerated expression, he gave the red cracked monster an upside-down thumbs up. Li Yu's feet were like the wind, and a green sword light flashed. All the red ling monsters that blocked his way were torn apart by the sword light like fragile thin paper, and lay on the ground, breathing out but not breathing in. Li Yu himself rushed out of the gate of the cave like "strolling in the garden".

"Ah?" (Where are the people?)
The red cracked demon tilted its head.

"Ahhh?" (Run away.)
"Ah!" (He's running away, you bunch of rubbish, why don't you chase him!)

After a roar, the red cracking demon fully demonstrated the fearless spirit of leading by example, turned into a red whirlwind, rushed out of the cave, and saw the shameless attacker from afar.

"Ouch!"

(Accept your fate, you despicable human!)
On the not-so-big island, a human-looking wizard was running in front, and behind him was a commander-level red-colored cracked demon and hundreds of red-ling demons chasing him non-stop. It seemed to be another routine escape and kill of demons hunting humans.
