Wizard From Afar

Chapter 24



"Do you want to refuse?"

Draco\'s smile froze on his face and then twisted into a strange look: "I don\'t think you know the status quo, Lord Loren Turin!"

"Or do you think I\'ll let an outsider who knows the truth leave here? Are you stupid or am I stupid?" priest Draco smiled grimly: "sorry, if you don\'t agree, you\'ll have to go to hell."

"Please think carefully. There is a real wizard standing in front of you, and you are just an apprentice, not much bigger than an ant. Even if you die, no one will care, let alone find my head!"

"But as you said, I don\'t have any evidence on my hand, and I can\'t pose a threat to you." I carefully moved away from the front of the other party, and Loren still comforted the priest as much as possible: "let me go, I\'ll tell others that all this was done by ghouls, and they will never doubt you."

"You think I\'ll let go of a hidden danger, even if you\'re just a bug?!"

Draco stared at him fiercely, and didn\'t forget to sneer: "or do you think I\'ll come to see you unprepared?"

As soon as he stepped down, his keen perception told Loren that there was a movement nearby - in Draco\'s cruel smile, one Ghoul after another came out of the soil under his feet, and his green eyes were full of hunger, thirst and greed, as if he were a hungry ghost climbing out of hell. The whole broken wooden house was full of the salivating voice and strong stench of monsters.

Not only that, the movement outside the house and his intuition told Loren that these ghouls were far more than what he saw in front of him. There must be others outside. It is estimated that they have surrounded the whole wooden house.

"So... You actually raised these ghouls?"

"I\'m an alchemist. It\'s not difficult to control this low-energy monster - just a small low-level spell and potion formula." even the cold tone can\'t hide the priest\'s pride: "if you want to join me, of course you can teach you."

"Thank you, but no," Lauren replied. "I don\'t want to be with these scavengers yet - it sounds a bit embarrassing."

"You\'ll be more ashamed soon." Draco\'s face darkened a lot and his gloomy tone became more fierce. "Since you want to try what it\'s like to be bitten by a ghoul, I\'ll meet your wish!"

Draco knocked hard on the door frame. The ghouls in the wooden house got the owner\'s order and climbed slowly towards Loren with their tusks, ready to enjoy this rare meal.

Standing in place, Loren was like a lonely and helpless prey, motionless, as if completely stunned by the current situation, which made Draco very satisfied. He couldn\'t wait to see what Loren looked like when he was torn to pieces by ghouls.

Will he shout, wail, cry, and then pee his pants to please him?

"I never seem to tell you how I killed your little pets in that tomb, right?"

Draco, who was just in various fantasies, suddenly saw Laurent smiling at him, playing with a bottle in his right hand... Wait, shouldn\'t that be?!

He threw the igniter to the ground with all his strength. Loren rushed up to the right wall without hesitation. At the same time, he used a hovering spell in the opposite direction, smashed the fragile wall, and then flew out with strong inertia.

The moment Loren rushed out of the cabin, there was a scream of ghouls burning inside. Loren, who flew out, rolled on the ground for two times before he stopped and supported his body with a long sword.

The first rule of battle is never to fight in a narrow place when you are at a disadvantage. Retreat to a wide enough space as far as possible to give yourself more room to deal with. If you can\'t, you also have the opportunity to escape - this is the life experience Lauren has summarized after wandering with the old knight for two or three years.

However, it seems that he still hasn\'t got rid of his disadvantage... While restoring his balance, the ghouls around the wooden house have also taken the opportunity to surround him, more than a dozen... No, I\'m afraid there are at least twenty or thirty, which is still a visual quantity.

"Kindling agent... No wonder you can escape from that tomb. It\'s relying on the kindling agent!" Draco, whose robe is stained with a layer of dust, staggered over with a ferocious expression: "you\'re crazy to make the kindling agent so unstable!"

"As long as it\'s practical, it\'s a good thing." Loren smiled indifferently, as if he wasn\'t surrounded by dozens of ghouls: "especially when facing your little pets."

"You can only use this trick once!" Draco roared, trembling, as if to restrain his anger. "Loren Turin, I\'ll give you one last chance to join me, or I\'ll be torn to pieces by them!"

The ghouls around them were also responding to their master, making dumb roars at Loren, who was surrounded in the center, as if they would rush up the next second and eat him without residue.

Draco, who had just been frightened, gradually recovered his calm, and his eyes at Loren became more and more ferocious - he had begun to imagine what would happen after killing him. The value of this wizard apprentice was more than he thought.

Maybe I shouldn\'t let the ghouls bite him to death and extract more secrets from his mouth. For example, the new formula of the igniter is very interesting. Although it looks a lot dangerous, it can become a life-saving thing at a critical moment, and may give you more inspiration.

What\'s more, he\'s already retired. Why do you have to kill him directly - isn\'t it more interesting for such a smart man to torture and humiliate him? He can also produce a living "white mouse" to experiment with his own alchemy products. This kind of thing has always been taboo, but no one can manage it in private

"I think you seem to have forgotten something."

The voice full of ridicule pierced Draco\'s ear again. The priest turned his face ferociously, and Loren, who shook the sword flower in his right hand, was still staring at him: "you didn\'t think that since I guessed that the murderer was you, would I come without any preparation?"

What... No, no, this boy is just bluffing. What can he do as a humble apprentice?!

Loren ignored his tangled appearance and slowly opened his left hand. A looming Rune floated in the palm of his hand. The complex lines and shapes were definitely not ordinary low-level magic spells.

"Beyond perception" - this is the achievement of Loren for a whole month, and it is also the only high-level spell he has mastered thoroughly.

Without a moment\'s hesitation, he pinched it. At the moment of the fragmentation of the rune, Loren felt that his heart suddenly stopped, and then a "flood" gushed out of his heart, then filled all over his body, collected the signals into his brain, and his body jerked violently.

That feeling is completely unprecedented stimulation!

A moment later, Lauren returned to normal. There were two more indigo patterns under his eyes in his cheeks, but the change of his body was definitely not just two patterns.

Even standing still, Loren could clearly feel that he had more sensitive control over his body, as if every muscle could be perfectly controlled. Their own perception and all kinds of perception have improved by more than one level, and even the world in their vision seems to have completely changed.

To put it simply, it\'s like a movie - the structure of the human eye can turn 24 pictures into dynamic pictures in a second, so most movies are 30 to 40 frames, and there are 60 frames with better quality.

And my current insight is definitely 120 frames or more! It\'s completely a gap between levels. It\'s like being reborn!

"The situation is reversed..." Lauren\'s face showed a confident smile: "now, let\'s dance!"
