In the valley, magicians and knights formed a team of more than a dozen people and moved forward quietly.

Before the separation, Ian gave each apprentice five magic scrolls: three primary scrolls for instant casting in times of crisis, and two intermediate scrolls for dealing with powerful enemies.The rest of the magician apprentices present were all envious. After all, scrolls that can be cast instantly can save lives at critical moments!

Most of the scrolls circulating in the market are of high value, and generally only engraved with low-level spells. The rare mid-level scrolls can fetch extremely high prices, but Ian took out six of them at once!

When Grace saw the intermediate scroll, her eyes turned green.

"Old teacher, why do I feel that you have become much cuter recently..."

And when Ian took out the advanced scroll, Grace almost stopped breathing.The other apprentices who kept peeking here also gave a small exclamation.

If noble apprentices were able to obtain middle-level scrolls in the magic market with their family's financial resources, then high-level scrolls were not something they could covet.

Advanced Scrolls can only be crafted by Archmages.In addition to the precious raw materials and tedious production process, the high-level scroll also consumes a huge magic power of the great magician!Although magic power can be supplemented by meditation, how many proud great magicians are willing to sacrifice their energy and time for several days just to make an advanced scroll for others to use?

This time, even the old magician beside him couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Then, Grace watched helplessly as the great magician handed the scroll into the boy's hands.

"For Carlos, his exposure to magic is too short."

Grace: "..." I feel like crying, what a fat thing.

On the other side, Carlos took the scroll in a heartbeat.

The scroll is made of Warcraft leather, soft and cool, and suddenly emits a layer of light when it is touched - the high-level scroll can be restricted by the creator. Obviously, Ian gave the scroll to him alone.Unless it is donated by him, no one else can use this scroll.

Carlos' eyes widened in disbelief, and he looked up at the person in front of him.Due to participating in group activities, the great magician no longer wore the plain gray robe, but changed into a rare white mage robe with gold trim, which made the whole person noble and gentle, and the tea crystal-like color in his eyes reflected the sunlight. It's a little shallower.

Unlike him who is gloomy, Ian has profound knowledge in magic and is handsome in appearance. He is very popular among a group of bad-tempered magicians, and everyone smiles at him wherever he goes.

And this person is treating him well.

Special, very good.

It's hard to imagine that a few months ago when I hunted monsters, I could only rely on a dagger in my hand, but now, I actually have an exclusive high-level scroll beside me...

Carlos's heart was pounding, and he was a little dazed for a while.

Ian smiled and said, "Why, do you still need me to add a defensive technique to you?"

Realizing that he had stared straight at Ian for too long, Carlos blushed for a moment: "No, no need..."

Unlike the first time I met Ian, now he can already cast defensive spells by himself.

only……

Before the magician turned and left, Carlos couldn't help changing his words in a low voice: "Ian, can you help me..."

"..." Grace finally couldn't listen anymore, "Okay, how long are you going to pester the teacher?"

……

All in all, Grace was pretty relaxed all the way, thanks to ample reels.

In the afternoon, the team encountered several intermediate monsters.The monsters in the Dene Valley are much more ferocious than those encountered in the Stoneclaw Forest. At first, Carlos was a little nervous, but he soon realized that his abilities had been developed in the past few months. Substantially improved.

Grace has mentioned to him many times that his progress is quite astonishing, but due to the lack of comparison, Carlos does not know what kind of "amazing" it is.

Until he rescued an apprentice who was said to have studied magic with a certain great magician for three years in front of a fourth-level monster.

The apprentice turned blue with fright, and couldn't speak clearly: "Thank you, thank you Ni..."

Carlos patted the other person on the shoulder and cast another soothing spell on him.When he turned around, a few traces of surprise flashed in his dark eyes.

It's that kind of mentality... I thought I was the best, but found out that I was actually a top student.

After several battles, the eyes of teammates who thought Carlos was a novice gradually changed.

Other magicians only dared to stand surrounded by the knights and cast spells from a distance, but Carlos could approach the monsters, even fight when the knights were unable to protect them in time, and then picked the perfect opportunity to kill the monsters with one blow.

He used all the elementary spells that he could use to the extreme, and all his actions were fast, accurate, and ruthless!It is very different from other apprentices who grew up in the mage's tower.

Later, Grace's eyes became a little dazed: "Carlos, I really think that you are the one who should learn martial arts... To be honest, you were a warrior before you entered the mage's tower, right?"

"No." Carlos replied coldly.

He was amazed at his transformation.These days, except for the abnormality on his body, everything in his life is getting better gradually - Ian has tried to "treat" the marks left by those magical creatures several times, but nothing works. The great magician is ending the spell Finally, a look of disappointment always flashed in his pupils.

Carlos couldn't bear to see Ian disappointed. He wanted him to take it easy. If this kind of life could continue, he didn't even think it didn't matter if he didn't get treatment.

After many days of tempering, he has begun to get used to enduring the heat and burning at night.

Carlos was a little distracted until Grace patted him lightly on the shoulder.

Then, Carlos noticed that the whole team suddenly fell into a strange silence.

A moment ago, the teams were still enthusiastically collecting the spoils, with relaxed smiles on everyone's faces.But now, everyone is holding their breath.

The knights clenched the swords in their hands and gradually gathered to surround the magician.

Carlos frowned suspiciously.

"Carlos, didn't you notice something was wrong?" Grace asked in a low voice.

Carlos shook his head: "What's wrong?"

Surprise flashed in the girl's eyes, she was stunned for a moment, and said softly: "I feel very cold and uncomfortable... I suspect that there are underground creatures nearby."

Beside Grace, the apprentice Carlos just rescued also paled, nodded in agreement and said, "Absolutely, absolutely, I feel like I am standing in the cemetery."

Hearing what they said, Carlos glanced around, and everyone in the team looked a little bit wrong.

Except for himself.

"Carlos, you are so brave." Grace couldn't help but say.

Carlos looked around with a condensed expression, and the dense branches and leaves limited his sight.

Due to his past experience, he was more vigilant than the other apprentices present. There was no reason why he was the only one who was excluded when everyone sensed the danger.

But, it just happened.

Carlos suppressed the doubts in his heart, and tightened his wand vigilantly.

The team didn't stay quiet for too long, the movement broke out behind Carlos.A young knight was the first to call out: "Bone wolf!"

Carlos turned around quickly, and under the terrified eyes of everyone, a bunch of dead bones were being squeezed out from the thick branches and leaves.Thin twigs scratched its neck and scratched its ribs, but it seemed to be unconscious, just quietly and slowly pushing its way out of the jungle.

It was a somewhat corroded canine bone, with intricate etched lines on the dry bone, and it looked like it had been around for some years.

Black mist gushed out from the bone wolf's wide-open jaws and dripped onto the ground, causing the plants on the ground to wither.

Surprisingly, after the bone wolf appeared, it didn't directly charge up to attack them.It stopped a few meters away from everyone, its neck was slightly lowered, and it seemed to be waiting for something vigilantly.

Grace gasped softly.

Reading about bone wolves in books and seeing them in real life are two fundamentally different things.

She was afraid.

"This bone wolf is at most a level five beast, so don't be nervous." A knight whispered, "We'll surround it."

Almost at the same time, the team knew what the bone wolf was waiting for.The sound of brushing branches and leaves came from the surrounding bushes, and countless soul fires gushed out from the forest, and the daylight flickered as dark as dusk for an instant.The soil under his feet turned, and a skeleton crawled out of the ground slowly but powerfully, with moss and dead leaves stained on the skull.

Grace, who had just plucked up her courage with the knight's encouragement, suddenly failed again.

A bone wolf might still be in control, but a pack of subterranean creatures?

Grace looked around at the rookies around her, and she couldn't help but see despair in her eyes.

"Rush out of here first!"

I don't know who yelled, and the people who were frozen all started to move.The knights grabbed their swords and rushed out, and the magician began to chant spells.For a moment, fireballs and lightning flew randomly, and the scene was in chaos.

After Carlos sent out a signal for help, he swung a fireball and fended off the skeleton of an unknown animal.His left hand grabbed Grace's arm—the little girl was so frightened that her legs went limp.

"Can you run by yourself?" Carlos said in a deep voice.

"Yes, yes, yes." Grace froze for a moment, then quickly stood up straight.She can also see that being frightened here is tantamount to giving up on herself completely.

Inadvertently, more and more dead bones gathered around, and even other monsters rushed out.Several knights cried out in pain. This time, everyone's goal is no longer to defeat the monster, but to save their lives.

Carlos repelled the approaching monsters with cold eyes. He could only cast elementary spells. He was almost knocked down by the monsters a few times, and he relied on the scrolls to break through the danger. So is Grace.

"What's the matter, these guys can't be beaten to death!" A magician next to him shouted angrily, "And they are gathering more and more."

No one answered him, but everyone couldn't help but agree with him.

After being wounded and howling, the demonic beasts present did not run away, but instead rushed forward more bravely, and their movement and breath seemed to attract more of the same kind to quickly approach.

On the other side, doubts arose in Carlos' heart - in the constant scuffle, the bone wolf had not been eliminated at first, and the two soul flames in its eyes were flickering, almost locked on him.No matter what obstacles it encounters, it follows behind itself step by step.

It was an observing, probing gaze.

Moreover, as soon as he was stared at by the bone wolf, a monster would jump out from the side and attack him. Even the last moment, this monster was still fighting with another person.

Everyone only thought that Carlos came to the rescue again, but they didn't know what happened behind it.

"Ah!" A scream broke out not far away, Carlos followed the sound, and a dark red figure staggered a few steps, almost fell to the ground.

It's Grace.

With pale lips, the girl supported a tree trunk beside her. Two blood holes were bitten out of her right arm holding the wand!The gurgling blood flowed down the dark red robe, dripping from the fingertips, and the stench made the monster in front of her gasp excitedly.

"Grace!" Carlos rushed over quickly, and after the beast noticed his approach, it immediately left the girl who was close at hand, turned around and started attacking him.

A vague guess arose in Carlos' mind: These monsters were coming towards him, and as long as he was around, everyone in front of him would be attacked continuously.

Although I don't know why.

He glanced briefly, the bone wolf was still staring at him not far away, the fire in his eyes flickered on and off, and his open forehead seemed to be grinning with a huge grin.

It can't go on like this.

Grace was already very weak due to blood loss, and many people around her were also injured.Ian definitely wouldn't want to see mages and knights who were seriously injured or dead all over the place when he came, and he was the culprit.

In the blink of an eye, the young man had already made a decision in his heart.

After defeating the monster in front of him, Carlos grabbed the girl's intact arm and stuffed a roll of leather into her hand.

"Grace, see the timing later and trigger the scroll."

After leaving these words, Carlos turned his feet and began to rush away from the crowd, running far into the depths of the forest.

Behind him, Grace was stunned for a moment, and suddenly screamed: "Gao, the advanced scroll?! Carlos! What's going on!"

She looked up in a panic, but the boy's figure had completely disappeared.

……

puff.

puff.

The heart was beating fast.

Carlos' eyes were dark.

Sure enough, as he expected, after leaving the crowd, the bone wolf still locked on to him, and the other monsters also changed their routes to chase after him.

The consequence is - he is surrounded by the herd of beasts, and has no power to break through.While running, he was even bitten off his arm, and his wand fell off.

Severe pain spread from the end of his limbs, Carlos clenched his teeth in pain, his steps became staggering, and more and more monsters caught up with him.Soon, he couldn't run anymore, densely packed monsters rushed up, and started their carnival and gnawing.

For a moment, Carlos had a strong premonition in his heart——

Perhaps, he was about to die here.

None of his limited life experiences told him that a person can survive after being surrounded by monsters like this.

But—he didn't want to die.

The figure of the great magician flashed vaguely in his mind, and Carlos's dark eyes were icy cold. He had lived in pain and humility for so many years, and finally caught a little light...

But so fast, so fast, everything is going to disappear.

Will Ian be sad after his death?Or will gradually forget him?

He didn't want Ian to be sad, and he didn't want Ian to forget him.

—He didn't want to die.

A bone snake was snaking around his body, piercing his cheek with sharp teeth.

The soul fire in the bone snake's eye pupils was beating happily, but before it noticed, one hand had already gently stroked it up to seven inches, and the next moment, it crushed the bone severely!

The touch of broken bones came from the hand, and at the same time, the blood in the body began to surge and burn, as if something was about to burst out of the ground...

Carlos didn't know what it was, he only knew that his heart was beating vigorously and alive again, and the hot plasma was pumped to the whole body, but they were no longer annoying, but with a familiar, ironing breath...

……

Lovisa quickly located the place where the magic scroll was burning, and the huge flaming bird rushed out like an arrow, skimming over the dense branches and leaves, and issued a warning from its throat.

Following its instructions, the people outside quickly rushed to the scene of the incident.

"What's going on?" An old magician wondered, "The monsters in this area have never exceeded level five, shouldn't something happen?"

"Probably some little guy touched the scroll by mistake." Another magician said.

Although everyone walked fast, they were not very nervous. It was not the first time for them to come to Dene Valley. Perhaps some of them had participated in the same activity here when they were young.

However, Xie Yunxi felt faintly uneasy in his heart.

This unease reached its peak when there was a huge roar in the distance.With the roar, the surging elemental power swept across the entire valley, and the sky was ablaze with raging magic fires. Countless magic fires fell down, attacking the target according to the mind of the scroll releaser.

"It's an advanced scroll! The advanced scroll has been triggered!"

This time, even Eric, who said "the crisis is inevitable" in a righteous way, turned serious.

The low-level scrolls used to send out the distress signal may be accidentally touched, but the high-level scrolls are absolutely impossible!The destructiveness of advanced scrolls is enormous, and the operator must consciously release the magic power in order to arouse its power.

Everyone quickened their pace, and on the way, they bumped into the fleeing knight and magician head-on.

Grace cried and threw herself on Xie Yunxi's body, sobbing, "There are so many monsters... Carlos, Carlos..."

The girl couldn't speak clearly, Xie Yunxi said nervously: "What's wrong with Carlos?"

A knight took her words: "Another magician may have been taken away by a monster."

"What about you?" Eric roared, "The magician was taken away, what about you?"

The knight said with a pale face: "I, we can't stop it. There are too many monsters. After he handed out the scroll, he ran away by himself!"

"Run away by yourself?"

Eric glared at him angrily, and on the other side, Xie Yunxi had already rushed out.

At the same moment, a system alarm sounded in his mind, and the location of the protagonist was attached to the alarm, which was a little deeper than Lovisa's hovering position.

Those monsters didn't take Carlos very far.

"Ian, let's find him together!"

Eric's voice came from behind, but Xie Yunxi ignored his shouts, and just ran straight to the destination with a cold face.

What do you mean you ran away?

A strong emotion surged in Xie Yunxi's heart, sweeping his mind like a sea wave.

Carlos was given up by them?Or some shit decision made by himself? !

He even handed over the high-level scrolls? !

An uncontrollable anger rose from the bottom of the great magician's heart, burning blazingly, almost extinguishing his sanity.

In any case, nothing happened to Carlos.

But unexpectedly, the monster that took Carlos away slowed down after moving a short distance.When people arrived at the scene, they were suddenly surprised to find——

There didn't seem to be a single living thing present.

……

It was a huge, filthy sea of ​​blood, and no one wanted to recall it a second time.The corpses of monsters were scattered all over the field, and in the middle of the sea of ​​blood, countless dead bones piled up to form a hill.Some of the dead bones are etched with black lines, symbolizing that they once belonged to an underground creature.

Xie Yunxi glanced around, and the system indicated this place.

But... Carlos was nowhere to be seen.

The head of the knight group comforted: "Maybe he has already escaped? Ian, let's look elsewhere."

Eric only dared to ask softly, the expression on Ian's face was something he had never seen before.But the other party didn't seem to hear his words clearly at all, and just looked around blankly.

After a while, the great magician's eyes stopped on the pile of dead bones.

Eric followed suit, and at this moment, the pile of dry bones suddenly moved slightly, and a finger bone rolled down from the pile of bones.

Xie Yunxi had a premonition in his heart, and his heart was pounding.He gripped his wand tightly, and walked slowly towards the pile of bones.

wow.

The bone pile collapsed a tiny corner.

The rest of the magicians also noticed the movement here, Xie Yunxi quickly raised his hand to stop the movement of others.

He took another step forward.

As if responding to his movements, the pile of bones suddenly collapsed in half.

The next moment, Xie Yunxi raised his heart to his throat.

In the middle of the bone, quietly buried a young man, his eyes were closed tightly, half of his pale face was covered by jet black hair, he was handsome and coquettish.

He breathed shallowly, as if he was in a peaceful sleep, completely unaware of what was happening around him.

"Carlos."

Xie Yunxi hurried over and tentatively called out.Before he met the other party, the boy frowned in confusion, then opened his eyes, and the figure of the great magician was reflected in a pair of black pupils.

Whoa, whoa, whoa-

This time, the bone pile completely collapsed.The boy crawled out in a hurry, and then threw himself on the great magician.

Xie Yunxi was suffocated for a while, and staggered half a step back. When she was about to lose her balance, her lower back was immediately bound by a pair of arms.

"Ian..."

Carlos buried his head in his neck, his neck itching from the warm breath.In an instant, the negative emotions just faded away.

"What happened?" Xie Yunxi asked.

He tore away the person in front of him, grabbed him and looked him up and down. Except for some mud and blood stains on the mage's robe, there was no other abnormality on Carlos' body, and even the bandages were well wrapped.

Maybe there are other anomalies.

Xie Yunxi didn't know what was going on with him, he only vaguely felt that Carlos looked a little flirtatious...

Especially, when he's keeping a close eye on himself.

In the past, he would only think that Carlos was handsome and good-looking, but he didn't feel this way now.Xie Yunxi couldn't figure it out, maybe it was because the black pupils got darker, or maybe it was because Carlos was emotional and the corners of his eyes were reddish.

"What's going on? What happened just now?" An old magician next to him interrupted and asked.

From the mouths of those young people who escaped from birth, they have already learned that a group of rare monsters has appeared here, but this cannot explain the situation on the scene-the boy in front of him is not even an intermediate magician, and it is absolutely impossible to instantly kill the monsters present!

The corpses of those magical beasts showed one thing - there was a huge unexpected force sweeping here, and this force was even beyond their imagination.

The old mage thinks that his limit is to deal with about one-third of the herd of beasts present, and the opponent's strength exceeds at least three of him. On the mainland, it is estimated that only the great magister or the strong of other races can do it!

Hubbard, the president of the association, might be able to, but everyone present couldn't.

"I don't know." Carlos shook his head.

He really didn't know.

The last memory in his mind was the bone snake struggling in his hand, and after that, he couldn't remember anything.

But...something weird happened, and it was related to himself, to those boiling blood.

Carlos lowered his eyes, covered with thick eyelashes.

He instinctively wanted to cover it up.

"Maybe... Teacher's scroll saved me." Carlos added.

"Impossible, is there another high-level scroll?" The old magician looked at Xie Yunxi in shock, the expression on his face was very straightforward, and he almost wrote "too extravagant" on his forehead.

"..." Xie Yunxi had some doubts in his heart, but he still pursed his lips noncommittally.

The old magician looked at Carlos again, and finally said, "It's fine."

On the other side, Carlos had a look of surprise in his eyes.

When the old magician asked questions, he thought he was about to be exposed, but Ian actually helped him cover it up without saying a word.

Carlos wanted to ask why, but he didn't dare to ask here on the spot.

His heart was overwhelmed, and he didn't realize that he had been holding the great magician's wrist tightly, and the other party didn't pull him away.
