From Alchemy Apprentice to All-Powerful God King

Late at night, the caravan had approached the border of Moor City, and lights could be seen in the distance.

"Let's stay here for the last night."

At Holly's command, the camp was quickly set up, with campfires and cooking smoke.

The number of caravan members was reduced by half, but it was not significantly affected.

We've all been in business for years, and we've all seen our share of ups and downs. Robbery is a common occurrence.

Of course, this time is an exception.

There were still some people in the caravan who were unhappy about Matthew's departure.

After all, Holly was alone, and she almost had an accident last time. In the end, she had to drive away her savior. So there were bound to be some rumors circulating in the caravan.

Holly couldn't do anything about it; too many people would gossip, and besides, it was indeed her own decision.

Fortunately, they were already close to Moore City, and after a night's rest, they could return to the city tomorrow.

"Sister Huo!"

"Xiao Li..."

As a guard for the caravan, Holly continued to patrol the area diligently, while also setting up traps for magical insects to prevent any strange beasts or other people from getting close.

After making sure they were alone, they returned to the caravan and went to the carriage guarded by the Wes Webber brothers.

"Hehe, Holly, time is running out. If you come to your senses now, I might spare your life."

When Miles saw Holly, his eyes darted to certain parts of her body without any attempt to conceal it.

Holly looked at the man, who was already delirious, with utter disgust.

In this situation, they are still threatening her; she even wonders if they've been blown up.

"Did you chase Matthew away?" Miles suddenly asked.

"Good riddance! Now you're all doomed, hahaha."

Holly was taken aback, looking at the somewhat deranged Miles, not quite understanding what he meant by those words, but a sense of unease gripped her, and she drew her longsword and pressed it against his neck.

"What do you mean? Explain yourself!"

Miles's pupils were bloodshot and wide open, bigger than copper bells. He opened his mouth to laugh but couldn't make a sound.

"I said, you're all dead!"

He then curled up, twisted himself into a ball, lay on the ground, and began to ramble incoherently.

"You actually managed to chase them away. Now nobody can save you, hahaha."

"It itches, Holly, can you scratch my back for me? It'll feel better!"

Holly was puzzled by Miles' near-madness, but she didn't get any useful information from him.

After getting out of the carriage, he asked the Wes Webber brothers.

"When did he start acting like this?"

After thinking for a moment, Weber said, "It seems to have started last night, and it's been like this all day today, just muttering something to each other."

Holly nodded: "Okay, thank you both for your hard work. Keep a close eye on him tonight and make sure nothing goes wrong."

"yes!"

"OK!"

Although the two brothers are mages in Moore City, they still need to rely on some powerful forces, otherwise the competition is too fierce and they won't make much money at all.

This journey with the caravan was their tenth job.

In order not to mess things up, they have been working very hard, whether it was defending against the bandits last time or guarding the place now.

And so, the caravan gradually rested in peace.

In the end, only the two brothers, Wes and Webber, were left, leaning against the carriage and warming themselves by the fire.

"Brother, why do you think Sister Huo kicked Matthew and the others out? Otherwise, we wouldn't have to keep watch at night."

Wes asked, somewhat bored, as he burned a stick.

"I don't know, it's probably related to Miss Grace. Even if he's a second-tier ability user, it's unlikely he could get on the caravan by rescuing Miss Grace, after all, they're worlds apart."

"Didn't you see that Sister Huo's attitude towards him was always lukewarm, even disgusted? That must be it."

Webber still didn't have a good impression of Matthew.

He could have easily dealt with a second-tier ability user, but he pretended to be weak in Val Town and fooled them all.

The thought of it makes me angry, but I also feel a deep sense of powerlessness. If they had that kind of strength, they might be able to get close to Miss Grace.

Just as the two brothers were about to take turns resting, Wes suddenly stood up and looked into the distance, beyond the dense forest.

"Brother, there seems to be someone outside!"

Upon hearing this, Weber, who had just closed his eyes to rest, was immediately awakened and then looked in the direction of the gaze.

Only scattered lights could be seen flickering in the dense forest.

At this time, for someone to enter the dense forest is definitely not a good thing.

"Sister Huo! Someone's here..."

Just as Webber opened his mouth to warn him, a spear shot out with a sonic boom, piercing Webber's chest and impaling him on the carriage.

"They're here..."

"elder brother!"

Wes's shouts startled everyone in the caravan. Holly jumped off the carriage and looked at the lifeless Webber.

The spear pierced his heart, and the magic raged within him, continuing to destroy his internal organs and eliminating any possibility of survival.

"Big brother, don't sleep, please don't sleep!"

Wes pressed on Webber's shoulder and shook his older brother, who had already closed his eyes, desperately, but there was no response.

The next moment, Holly abruptly pulled Wes away and threw him aside.

At the same time, a second spear came, but he deflected it with his sword and it stuck into the carriage.

Holly's face turned ashen. She hadn't expected to encounter such a robbery again on her last night, and she immediately shouted.

"All personnel on high alert! Return immediately!"

From the increasingly close firelight, it was clear that the enemy forces outnumbered them.

We definitely can't win in a fight, so we can only speed up our journey towards Moore City.

In an instant, everyone in the caravan woke up and, under Holly's guidance, resumed their journey.

However, before they could even start moving, a horse neighed from the carriage at the front, and then its head separated from its body and it fell to the ground.

Flynn emerged from the shadows ahead, unleashing his second-tier magic power without any concealment, while wiping the blood from his hands.

"You're not going anywhere. If you don't want to die, you'd better stay where you are."

Immediately, no one in the caravan dared to continue forward.

Holly's heart sank when she discovered that someone had arrived ahead of them and was blocking their way. She rushed back to Grace's carriage.

"What's wrong?"

Inside the car, Grace was about to peek out to check the situation when Holly pressed her back down.

"It's a bandit. Miss, please don't come out yet. I'll deal with him first, and then I'll take you away from here."

Holly drew her longsword, intending to first kill the ability users blocking her way, then abandon the convoy and leave with Grace.

However, before she could get close, a swarm of exploding insects landed at her feet.

Upon seeing the familiar demonic insect, Holly's expression changed, and she immediately retreated several steps, managing to escape the attack range before the explosion.

As the smoke cleared, Flynn approached unhurriedly. After looking around, he didn't see the person he was looking for, and then asked.

"Where's Matthew? Get him out here right now!"
