Wizard Alchemist

Chapter 35 Powerful Monster
"Leave this place immediately!"

Roy hesitated for a moment and spoke decisively.

He realized that his group's good luck had finally run out, as they had accidentally arrived at the monster's habitat.

Everyone had the same idea, and for safety reasons, they chose to walk in windy and hilly areas close to the mountains.

The Wu Tower teaches knowledge about various monsters and alien creatures. Common low-level monsters such as murlocs are something that low-level apprentices can come into contact with.

They all knew that this monster was relatively short compared to humans, and was not good at running long distances on land, so it never moved towards the land.

Unless they migrate along the river.

But just as they had rushed eastward for several thousand meters and were about to get away from the river, a ferocious-looking figure suddenly appeared on the high slope of the small valley ahead.

Following closely behind were a dozen elite mutant fishmen with colorful scales.

Roy's mental strength was stronger than the others, and he immediately felt a chilling magical power gathering and high-voltage current surging in front of him.

He got goosebumps all over his body. "Why didn't that monster stay by the river? Instead, it ran up the hillside!"

They ran here just to avoid the other party, but they didn't expect to fall into a trap!
He pulled the reins without hesitation, and at the same time pulled Niya, who was a little slow to react, to change direction and turn in as fast as possible.

The others woke up as if from a dream and turned around.

But Chad and Shahru were a step too slow and landed in the area where the lightning bolt struck.

There was a crackling sound of electricity, and a thick white light pierced through their bodies like a sharp blade.

The powerful magic power spread in all directions. In the blink of an eye, the two men's skin was charred black and they fell to the ground with smoke coming out.

The undead warhorse under him also lost the witchcraft energy that maintained its power and fell down instantly.

"help me!"

Although Thomas dodged the first round of attacks, he was paralyzed by the surging electric current and fell behind the crowd.

More than ten bone spears came whizzing and pierced through it with a sound of breaking through the air.

His body stiffened, blood spurted from his mouth, and he soon died.

"Help!"

Andov and Tigro fled in panic, howling like ghosts and wolves.

Fortunately, the murloc warlock's spellcasting required intervals, which allowed them to escape.

"How could there be a murloc ambush here? We didn't even notice it before!"

Roy's heart was pounding like a drum. He tried his best to ride his horse to the other side of the slope. He didn't dare to look back until he felt that he had opened up a long distance.

The ferocious figure made him hold his breath instantly.

"That monster... is indeed a lord-level monster. It's simply not something an ordinary high-level apprentice can deal with!"

The other party was several times larger than an ordinary fishman, with a golden-green body, scales that looked like they were cast from a strange copper, and sharp spikes like shark teeth covering its back.

What is even more eye-catching is that in the palm of the murloc lord's hand, there is a red eyeball embedded in it, which looks a bit ferocious.

Lightning flashed around it, and the terrifying lightning bolt just now was inspired by it.

Seeing this scene, Roy was slightly stunned, and felt a slight pain in his eyebrows.

But he didn't have time to think about it, and quickly called Niya and the survivors to continue fleeing.

"Don't go back to the river. Let's go up the hillside here. It's faster this way!

I remember there's an exit over there too. We'll be safe if we escape outside!"

At the critical moment, Roy felt that his thoughts were still clear.

At least……

No problem with directions! "Elmo! Elmo, run!"

Suddenly, Tigro realized something was wrong, turned his head and looked, then shouted in surprise.

Everyone turned around and saw that at the critical moment, Ai Mo had fallen behind.

He was so nervous that when he turned back to escape just now, he failed to control the undead warhorse under him and actually fell off the saddle!
The fishmen behind have caught up.

Everyone was helpless and could only watch as he was surrounded by several elite warriors.

Ai Mo roared and began to fight like a trapped beast, but he could not escape the entanglement of those elite warriors.

"There's no way to save him, let's go!"

Roy growled and left decisively.

Soon after, everyone ran to the top of the hillside where the terrain was open and finally reached safety.

Looking back, everyone saw that Emory had been killed, and the mutated lord-level monster was furiously baring its fangs and claws at them, as if regretting letting them escape.

"This monster! Damn it!"

Tigro was shaking with anger.

Here he lost his good companion, Elmer.

As for Chad and his two companions, they were completely wiped out.

Roy could only say that he was helpless.

At the critical moment, he could only help Niya beside him and couldn't care less about Chad, Elmer and others.

This is the difference between closeness and distance.

"We absolutely cannot stay here any longer, let's go around to the other side and then go back quickly.

The Windy Hills are known for being a location for many dangerous missions. We must remain vigilant and guard against attacks from other monsters and even wizard apprentices!"

Following his reminder, everyone could only put away their sadness and fear, put on a cold and serious face, and left the place.

……

"Finally back!"

"I'm so tired..."

Two days later, everyone returned to the Wu Tower and finally relaxed their tense minds and breathed a sigh of relief.

During this period, they did encounter other teams heading to the Windy Hills for adventure, and also encountered people with bad intentions who made verbal provocations to them.

Fortunately, Roy was a genuine senior apprentice and possessed considerable deterrent power. The other people surrounding him also looked like elite soldiers and generals, so no one dared to attack them.

"Everyone, come to my side. I will distribute the spoils of this battle as promised."

Roy looked around and found that everyone around him looked as if they were in a state of panic. He decided to say something that would be welcomed and boost morale.

After hearing this, everyone's complexion finally improved slightly.

There were only six people left in the team, so Roy simply waved his hand and divided the five warlock fish beads equally among everyone except Celine. He took care of the wounded as much as possible with the rest of the spoils so that everyone had a share.

Celine's status is special, so she doesn't need much in the way of mission amounts and promotion materials, so she uses some magic stones as a slight compensation.

But even so, everyone still gained at least 2000 magic stones worth of rewards.

Roy himself even obtained various materials worth more than 5000 magic stones!
Even though they had predicted on the way that this adventure mission would yield good results, when they finally got the rewards, they still couldn't help feeling dazed.

It turns out that if a few fewer people share the profits, the final income will be so much greater?
As the divisor gets smaller, the quotient gets larger...

A simple math problem can also be fatal!
For a moment, no one knew whether to say this was lucky or unfortunate.
