Wizard Alchemist

Chapter 18: Solved with One Sword

Roy kept moving forward.

His mental power was highly concentrated, and there was a faint dangerous red light in his pupils, which seemed even brighter against the shadows on his face.

One step, two steps...

Getting closer.

"What does this man do?"

Trides and others became alert instantly, stopped their horses, and drew their weapons to be on guard.

This continent is a reserved area specially opened up by wizards. Apart from the apprentices in the tower, there are no other humans.

In this desolate place, approaching rashly would itself imply hostility.

Suddenly, they smelled a strange odor like rotten apples.

Roy looked at their tipsy expressions and immediately knew that they had fallen into a trap.

He showed up at just the right time, just to make the other party stop and be on guard, smelling the fermenting smell of rotting snake fruit that drifted downwind.

But this cannot replace the orchard disaster, it is just an introduction.

He raised his arms decisively.

A bullet driven by a high-pressure gas cylinder was ejected, turning into an attack similar to "acid splash".

Everyone was in a daze and their reaction was a little slow, and they were unable to dodge in time.

The gas bullet hit Trides, and the "acid" bubbled rapidly, making a sizzling sound, which scared everyone.

This horrible corrosiveness...

If it splashes on your face, you will be disfigured!
Trides was also very anxious, but soon, the strange smell like the fermentation of rotten apples changed and turned into a faint aroma of wine.

His eyes became blurred and he froze there for a moment.

On Roy's side, adrenaline began to take effect.

An inexplicable excitement surged through my body like a warm current, my heart beat faster and my blood boiled.

His steps became faster and faster, and finally, he was running at full speed, rushing towards the opponent like an arrow from a bow.

"not good!"

Finally, someone in the team reacted and shouted loudly to warn people.

Roy ignored him and rushed straight to Trides, drawing his sword and starting to chop him.

Low-level knights possessed physical strength and power far exceeding that of ordinary people, fueled by adrenaline...

This grants him powerful attacks far beyond what he can unleash at his current stage.

The psychedelic effect of "The Orchard's Doom" made Trides completely unable to fight back, and he sat there like a living target to be slaughtered.

"what!"

Trides screamed, covered his cut waist and abdomen, and fell off his undead warhorse.

The blood and screams diluted the impact of the "Orchard Disaster". Several intermediate apprentices woke up from their dreams and fled in panic, screaming.

Roy stood where he was and did not chase after him, quietly calming his mood and breath.

After being on guard for a long time, he placed the iron sword in his hand on the ground, trembling slightly and breathing heavily.

This is an aftereffect of using adrenaline.

Coupled with the nervousness and tense muscles, which consumed extra energy, I actually felt a little weak.

But he never relaxed from beginning to end, but prepared a second dose of adrenaline, and the Orchard's Evil and the Calming Cattail Water Fragrance hidden in his pockets were also ready to be broken at any time.

At the critical moment, he will not distinguish between friend and foe and drag everyone into a nightmare dream.

Then use the calming Pu Shui incense to wake people up first and start harvesting.

If those people dare to come back.

However, this did not happen. Those people were obviously frightened. After escaping, they quickly moved away from the scene and completely abandoned Trides.

After a moment, Roy returned his attention to Trides.

The man who had threatened him and threatened to kill him was dead on the spot. The expression of fear remained on the corpse's face, becoming the final mark.

Roy took a quick look at his belongings.

As expected, he was penniless.

However, he was not there to kill people and steal treasures. He simply dealt with the body, threw it into the nearby woods, and left in a hurry.

……

At around 7 o'clock in the evening, Roy returned to the tower smoothly and handed over the mission.

This time, the receptionist was no longer the daytime apprentice. He politely reminded them, "Wu Ta treats apprentices like you who take on tasks on your own with preferential treatment. We can retain up to half of your quota for our own needs..."

Do you need to hand it all in as a reward for the mission, or keep some for yourself?"

"I'll keep 5 for myself and hand in 15."

Roy thought about it and said to him.

Wuta has technology similar to storage space, which can preserve fresh fruits for a long time.

If during this period, it is consumed by others through task rewards or purchase, it does not matter, you can pick it again.

He had tasted the sweetness and did not want to reveal the secret that "the calming Pu Shui incense can fight against mental illusions" for the time being.

In addition, the threat from Porterning is still there, so we have to keep a low profile for a while and bide our time.

……

The next day, inside the Wu Tower, in the cafeteria.

“Triders is dead!
He was attacked and killed by a mysterious person in the wild, and his stomach was ripped open on the spot. It was so tragic!"

Renien didn't know where he got the information from, and said with a bit of disbelief.

"I told you it was dangerous out there. This isn't the first apprentice to die!"

"I've heard about a lot of vendettas before..."

"What kind of people are they? They are so fierce!"

Niya, Andov and others also exclaimed in amazement.

Although I have been in Wuta for many years and have heard similar rumors, this is something that happened around me after all, and it is very different from the experiences of those strangers.

"Oh, really? That's really gratifying." Roy responded calmly while eating breakfast.

"Wait, you had a conflict with him, didn't you do it?"

Raynian suddenly thought of something and said with some doubt.

Roy stopped and said, "An honest man like me won't take action even if someone points a sword at me!
How can you have the heart to doubt me?"

"Really? That seems to make sense." Renien muttered.

Niya and Andov also felt that what Renien said was too unreliable.

How could Roy, such a low-key and honest person, be so fierce?

Roy ignored them and started thinking to himself.

"Through this attack, I can fully confirm that under normal circumstances, I possess the strength equivalent to that of a low-level knight.

After the adrenaline is stimulated, you can temporarily be promoted to the intermediate knight stage..."

The Seven Towers Alliance sets "the power of one person" as the standard.

The conversion of mathematical power is measured in "one degree".

The power of physical attacks that ordinary people and knights' servants can launch is roughly the same.

After learning the "Knight's Breathing Method", you will break through the limits of mortals and become a low-level knight.

The physical fitness and strength at this stage can reach more than twice that of ordinary people, and the speed and reaction are also significantly improved.

At the intermediate knight stage, one's physical strength and power can reach more than three times that of an ordinary person!
Combined with advanced martial arts and sophisticated equipment, this is enough to single-handedly wipe out a small army of refugees!

He did not have advanced martial arts skills or sophisticated equipment, but his temporary strength was equivalent to that of an intermediate knight. Coupled with an unexpected first-hand attack, it was still more than enough to kill a mediocre apprentice like Trides.
