Wizard: I want to be a top student

The abandoned laboratory in the basement was in a mess. The specimens and skeletons that were originally arranged in an orderly manner were broken into pieces. The ground and walls were covered with blood stains and traces of battle, and the air was filled with the smell of blood.

In one corner of the laboratory, the corpses of demonized beasts were piled up, and blood was flowing on the corpses.

All these conditions showed that a fierce battle had just taken place here.

The group of Walban had lost their casualness in the past. They all seemed a little silent and discouraged, and even Walban could not avoid it.

Cook said helplessly: "I have almost used up all the things on me."

"Me too."

His words were echoed by others.

The wizard apprentice is a complex profession. The combat power includes all aspects. In addition to mental power and mana spells, it also includes the consumables they carry, such as various potions, spellcasting materials, disposable runes, and magic items.

The previous battle almost used up all the consumables on them.

In the past day, the laboratory's protective membrane was opened twice. The first time, they were caught off guard. Fortunately, those present were not easy to deal with. They took advantage of the convenience of the laboratory to kill the invading demonic beasts together.

The second time, the five people were prepared and killed them under the leadership of Walban.

Facing the countless demonic beasts on the steps outside, the five people fought bravely and faced the difficulties. They fought all the way to the end of the steps against the continuous demonic beasts.

Then the five people were dumbfounded.

There was no passage to get out in front of them. As they had guessed before, the other party had done it to the extreme. The road at the end of the steps was collapsed, and there were only rat holes and narrower snake paths on the mountain walls on both sides.

The person behind the scenes did not show up from beginning to end. He only killed wave after wave of demonic beasts, and in the end the steps were full of corpses.

It was impossible for them to get out of the rat hole that was less than 30 centimeters wide. In the end, they really couldn't find a way out. The apprentices' weakness was that their defense was low. Some of them were injured one after another, one injured his leg, and one seriously injured his arm.

They could only retreat to the abandoned laboratory helplessly.

When they returned to the laboratory, the protective array had been restored. Fortunately, Walban's array-breaking cone could be used for the last time, so the five people were able to return to the abandoned laboratory smoothly.

When they entered the laboratory, they were ambushed by the demonized beasts hiding inside, and it took some effort to calm them down.

At the moment, the situation was very unfavorable for them.

Thinking of seeing the real enemy once, Walban looked gloomy. It was the first time he encountered such a difficult and disgusting opponent.

"No matter what, we still have to fight our way out next time and find a way to break through the siege. Even if we have to dig, we have to dig a way out. Anyway, I don't have the habit of waiting for the enemy to attack."

His array-breaking cone has been shattered. It will not be an easy thing to rush out of the laboratory and return next time.

He was worried that he could only stay in the laboratory, while the enemies outside could calmly prepare other means. If they defended for too long, they would lose. Maybe the next time they would be annihilated.

"Okay, let's kill every demonized beast that comes. Kill them all."

"Let's do it. I don't want to stay here in frustration."

The others looked at each other. It was not the habit of their hunting team to wait for others to make a move. One by one, they expressed their agreement.

Fighting to the death is better than waiting to die in a cowardly way.

As for the people in the enchantment group, the five people would not pin their hopes on others.

After a while, the protective array membrane emerged clearly and produced a wisp of ripples. The five people had already held the sword in their hands and were ready to kill.

A door was automatically opened on the protective membrane. The five people jumped out of the laboratory at the first time, and the stronger smell of blood and stench came to their noses.

After a few hours, only fragments of the beast corpses on the steps were left. It can be expected that the original corpses were filled with the stomachs of other demonized beasts.

"Kill!"

"Roar."

The roars of beasts continued. This time, there were no fewer demonized beasts landing on the steps than the previous two times. There were a large number of demonized rats, demonized snakes, demonized spiders, centipedes, demonized bats, and even larger demonized pythons.

Under the leadership of Walban, the apprentices remained calm and took up their swords to fight with the beasts.

They suppressed the beasts' offensive and moved forward step by step along the steps.

After a while, the demonized beasts on the steps suddenly retreated, and the beasts quickly retreated to the passages on both sides.

"What's going on?"

"It should be reinforcements."

The five people's faces were brightened, and they quickly guessed the reason. It should be the people from the enchantment group who heard the news and rushed over.

On the other side, under the careful search of the black two-headed dog, Ivan and others found the passage where the enemy sneaked into the mountain, but the entrance of the passage was blocked by someone. After digging the entrance and exit again, several people stepped into the mountain.

In the passage less than one person high, several people were constantly harassed by demonized beasts, which was very annoying.

In such a narrow place, the people had to be cautious. No one knew whether the passage was solid or not. Many spells with strong attack strength could not be used. Fortunately, there were Ivan's Swift Wood Silkworm and Gina's Fire Poison Ant.

Under the protection of the insect swarm, the four of them went deeper.

"Drink it quickly."

Heidi handed each of the three people a potion.

Ivan took it subconsciously. This was a high-quality antidote.

Could it be poison?

He glanced at Heidi and saw that she had no intention of explaining. He drank the antidote as she said, and at the same time recalled the scattered Xunmu silkworms outside and controlled the insect nest behind him to close up. He wanted to see if Heidi had any better means.

‘Death Dark Cloud’

Under Heidi’s performance, a thick dark gray poisonous cloud was formed in an instant. Driven by the strong wind, the poisonous airflow drilled into the holes in the passages around, covering all the exposed holes, and suddenly bursts of ethereal whistling sounded.

Seeing this, Ivan secretly smacked his lips. He could feel the cold chill from the poisonous cloud. This poison must be fatal.

This woman is too fierce. I don’t know if those people from Walban will be injured by mistake. I hope so.

Not far away, Melinda noticed the unusual movement. The next second, she saw gray poisonous smoke coming out. There were many holes around, and poisonous smoke came out from the front and back, approaching her quickly.

"Retreat!"

Her face changed drastically, and she immediately drank an antidote, then retreated while manipulating dense fog to try to isolate the approach of the poisonous smoke.

Melinda reacted the fastest and retreated quickly, completely avoiding the approach of the poisonous smoke.

Her two companions were not so lucky. Allen at least only smelled a trace and ran away in time, while Yusai was just covered by the poisonous smoke that came out. When the other two retreated, Yusai fell to the ground.

At this time, the other two had no time to care about him and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

In a few seconds, Ivan and the other four caught up to the place where Yusai fell.

Walking along the passage, Ivan really saw the ferocity of Heidi's move. Wherever it passed, birds and beasts disappeared.

A rumbling sound came from the front, which gave the few people who were chasing them a bad premonition. As expected, the enemy collapsed the passage in front, blocking their pursuit.

There was a faint voice coming from the opposite side, and the other party did not seem to be in a hurry to go far.

The three of them looked at Heidi at the same time, wondering whether to chase her now or not.
