Wizard Immortal

Chapter 170 The Crimson Sword

"Arul, how's the situation going?"

A woman's voice suddenly rang out in front of what appeared to be an ordinary carriage.

"It's almost done."

Hearing the woman's voice coming from inside the carriage, the middle-aged knight respectfully said, "As expected, most of these people will leave our group to distract the enemy."

"We just need to create the illusion that you are hiding among these teams. Even if the other side knows there is a problem, they will definitely send people to intercept you in order to prevent you from leaving like this, thus reducing the number of enemies we need to face."

"Yes, you did a great job."

Inside the carriage, the woman's voice rang out again: "Remember to be extra vigilant during this time. Once we reach Anfeng City, we'll be safe."

"Yes."

The middle-aged knight named Arul nodded, exchanged a few words with the woman before him, and then walked to the side, seemingly preparing to attend to other matters.

On the other side, similar conversations were taking place.

In the corner, an old man and a young man looked around, their expressions somewhat solemn.

"Teacher, something seems wrong here. Should we leave?"

Standing still, looking at the old man in front of him, the young man asked, "The Hand of the Gale is a very famous bandit group in this area. It is said that its leader is a top-notch Grand Knight who was once known as the Gale Knight on the battlefield and single-handedly killed three Grand Knights of the same level."

"With such strength, if they personally lead their troops out, we probably wouldn't be a match for them."

Looking at his teacher, he said hesitantly.

Hearing his words, the old man in front of him frowned slightly.

Although in the eyes of powerful wizards, so-called knights are nothing, this does not include certain extremely powerful grand knights.

Ultimately, the two of them were merely second-class apprentices. They might be fine facing a knight or an ordinary grand knight, but if they were attacked by a top grand knight or even a group of knights, they would not fare well and would likely meet a bad end.

"Let's wait and see."

After thinking for a long time, the old man was still somewhat unwilling. He gritted his teeth and said, "We finally found out about the Crimson Sword. It would be such a waste to leave like this."

"It's good that the Hand of the Gale has arrived. With them holding us back, we can keep the power of these guardians occupied, making it easier for us to make our move."

He looked at the middle-aged knight in the distance and said in a low voice.

Beside him, the young apprentice nodded slowly, looking equally unwilling.

Unbeknownst to them, a boy was silently watching them as they spoke, and his heart stirred as well.

"The Crimson Sword?"

Standing at a distance, listening to the conversation between the two apprentices, Adir's heart stirred: "I heard that in the previous ruins, someone did find several alchemy blueprints for enchanted items, including the crafting information for the Crimson Sword. I didn't expect to find them here."

Adir had heard about this a long time ago.

It must be said that although the ruins of the ancient wizards are dangerous, they do contain many good things.

Before the ruins in the southern continent were sealed off, many things were unearthed there, including several crafting manuals for high-level enchanted items, which caused quite a stir at the time.

The forging data for the Crimson Sword was also unearthed at that time, but something happened afterward and it disappeared after being unearthed. It is unknown who took it and it appeared here in my mind.

"The Crimson Sword is not only a high-level enchanted item... but it can also be used directly as a weapon, which is extremely rare. In terms of value, it can already be compared with some low-level enchanted artifacts."

Standing still, Adir looked at the carriage in the distance: "Since we've come across such high-class goods, we can't let them go."

He looked at the crowd in the distance and made a decision in his heart.

The next day, as dawn broke, the group set off again.

Around noon, the group arrived at a small town.

Upon arriving here, many of those who had originally followed the group chose to leave, each carrying their own belongings and heading down different paths.

After losing these people, the number of people in the team was reduced by nearly half, leaving only 230 people still moving forward.

The peaceful days lasted for several days, until the situation began to change on the roads in the wilderness.

The distant scenery flashed by quickly, and after a series of footsteps, the surroundings suddenly became deathly silent.

"You're here?"

Seeing the unusual surroundings, the middle-aged knight named Arul remained calm and quietly looked ahead.

From that direction, heavy footsteps could be heard continuously.

He was a middle-aged man dressed in silver-white armor, with several scars on his face, but he was very handsome. Riding on a white horse, he looked extremely charming.

"Wind Rider, Funen..."

Looking at the imposing middle-aged man in the distance, Arul frowned slightly: "I didn't expect it to really be you..."

"Hand over the items."

Wearing a suit of silver-white armor, Fu Nong coldly said, "The news has already been leaked; you can't keep that thing safe."

"Even if we don't come, someone else will."

"I don't know what you're talking about."

Arul's eyes remained calm as he listened to the other person's words, occasionally revealing a hint of doubt on his face.

"It seems you won't hand over the goods unless we fight."

Looking at Arul, Funong's face was cold, and he looked majestic and decisive.

The next moment, he made a decisive move. A silver-white light flashed before his eyes, and a silver-white longsword was quickly drawn out by him, bringing with it a white battle aura, and slashed at Alur's body.

"Great Knight!!!"

Upon seeing the white battle aura, a chorus of horrified exclamations erupted from the surrounding area.

bump!

Another white aura quickly lit up and rushed forward in an instant, neutralizing the white sword light in front of them.

Arul's expression was solemn, and a faint white aura lingered around his black longsword, revealing him to be a great knight as well.

Before anyone present could even gasp in surprise, a sudden change occurred.

An arc of electricity shot over, carrying dense energy particles. In an instant, it struck Arul, knocking him heavily to the ground before he could react.

A deathly silence fell over the spot.

Everyone stared at the scene in disbelief, almost thinking they were hallucinating.

A great knight, a top figure wherever he goes, could practically roam freely as long as he didn't encounter a strong opponent of the same level. But now he was easily knocked off his horse, and his fate seemed unknown.

A trail of blood slid gently across the surface.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Fu Nong walked to the front with a cold expression. With a light slash of his silver-white longsword, a head flew off, leaving only a headless corpse.

After doing all this, he walked over to a middle-aged man dressed in leather armor who looked no different from an ordinary knight, and said with great respect, "Lord Warren, it's all taken care of!"

A middle-aged man in leather armor nodded in front of him, and then, escorted by knights, rode his horse forward.

"Amira, your guards have been dealt with. Aren't you coming out?"

The middle-aged man named Warren rode ahead, his face cold.

Suddenly, everything became quiet.

After a long while, new movements appeared ahead.

Under Adir's gaze, a beautiful young woman dressed in a black dress stepped out of the carriage, holding a scepter in her hand.

"As wizards, resorting to a sneak attack to deal with an ordinary high knight—is this the style of your Amanda family?"

As soon as she stepped out of the carriage, she looked at the headless corpse at her feet, and her expression immediately turned grim.

"You're not much better... Others may not know your background, but do you think I don't?"

Warren's face was cold: "Hand over the items."

Hearing this, Amyra sneered: "If it were you, would you choose to hand it over?"

boom!!

The swift ball of lightning streaked across the surrounding space, blasting several large craters into the once flat land.

The wizard named Warren was clearly a man of action. Seeing that the other party was refusing, he didn't waste any words and rushed over to cast a spell.

Arcs of electricity flashed around, transforming into chains that coiled around Amyra.

Faced with this, Amyra's expression changed, and she instantly transformed into a shadow, disappearing into the surroundings.

"A veil of shadows? No, it's a demonized item..."

Looking at the other party's methods, Warren muttered to himself, and then moved his hand again.

A sliver of white light emanated from his hand, accompanied by a soft cracking sound, and a pure crystal ball shattered, emitting a strange fluctuation.

Enveloped in this light at close range, the protective shadow on Amira's body vanished instantly, and a gem on her scepter dimmed, seemingly losing its original effect.

boom!!

A ball of lightning hurtled towards her head and slammed into Amyra, the resulting arcs of electricity engulfing her entire body and rendering her temporarily immobile.

Seeing her appearance, Warren's face was cold. He pulled a black dagger from his waist, which had a pale green sheen, and stabbed her down hard.

He was incredibly fast; before his opponent could react, he had plunged the dagger deep into the flesh, sending up a spray of blood.

"Got you..."

Despite being stabbed directly by the dagger, Amyra revealed a strange smile.

In an instant, her body began to swell, and flesh buds began to sprout from her flesh, extending along the other person's hand towards their body, seemingly trying to grab them.

A flash of silvery-white battle aura suddenly appeared, splitting half of Amira's body open and revealing the bones inside.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Warren reached out and thrust his arm directly into Amelia's heart, pulling out a pale green crystal.

"Walk!!"

Having obtained the crystal, he looked at Fu Nong beside him and spoke, then quickly ran away to a distance.
