"Are you satisfied now?" In such an unfamiliar environment, leading such a weak team, Caitlin was speechless.
If it weren't for the fact that he had actually killed many archmages, she wouldn't have let Luo Fan act so recklessly.
"Of course, now you're much more comfortable. And look at Little Grey, it's become much more lively now."
"That's because it's afraid of heights!"
As they traversed the woods, Toria and Freya were on high alert. The other girls, however, seemed quite confident in Luo Fan and showed no signs of urgency.
"I'll be right back. You guys hide first. There are no signs of magical beasts around." He then brought out his fireball clone and instructed Fire Rain and Emil to keep an eye on their surroundings.
Seeing the chubby fire-type slime, Ahri and the others all gathered around. Huoyu tried to hug it, but couldn't lift it. However, Xiaohui easily put it on his back.
Looking at the ever-well-behaved Ahri, who's now at level 9 as a beginner mage, perhaps she can start trying to summon pets. Freya should know about one-time summoning magic circles, right?
In such a densely populated area of magic energy, one might be able to summon some bizarre magical beasts.
After settling the girls in, Luo Fan set off.
Given the speed at which those mages flew cautiously, they should still be some distance away. Using the shadows in the forest, Luo Fan traveled at high speed, leaving behind spatial nodes as transit points.
Meanwhile, Anya had just noticed her pet's unusual behavior and observed it curiously for a while, but when she found it had returned to normal, she didn't pay much attention to it.
"Sister, do we have to be so careful? I heard that Caitlin brought fewer than 20 mages; they're definitely no match for us," the Third Prince complained. He had wanted to follow them earlier, but his sister had stopped him.
“That woman is no ordinary person. She must have her reasons for doing this. Actively accepting spies from all sides, and with such a seemingly ordinary team size, don’t you find that strange?” Anya analyzed calmly. If the entire team ahead was wiped out, they would have to escape immediately.
But if all of them are caught, then it doesn't matter.
Given Caitlin's intelligence, she would never do something so uncertain; something is definitely amiss.
She gradually slowed the team down, and even sent people to investigate nearby traps, preparing for a space-time crossing.
"But in the face of absolute power, aren't all schemes just empty talk!" The Third Prince was still very upset about not joining the vanguard.
He wanted to grab that woman with his own hands, then ravage her mercilessly, to show her what he was capable of.
"Stop talking nonsense, or I'll sew your mouth shut!" Anya scolded irritably. She had a feeling that something bad was going to happen, whether inside or outside the secret realm.
That Void Thief is too strange; I've never heard of him before. Also, the Saint Sisca Empire seems to have noticed the anomalies in Saint Lin City. That old woman should be able to hold out, right?
The attitude of the Orc Empire seems somewhat ambiguous. Could it be that the Fox God has truly appeared in the world?
If that's the case, once that guy from the Holy Light Cult is resurrected, we can try to awaken that terrifying being within the cult.
Hearing this, the Third Prince indeed became much more obedient. His older sister was a woman of absolute authority. Now, her strength had reached the peak of level 9 Archmage, a level he couldn't possibly defeat.
At Anya's request, the members of the Fabings family who were following her continued onward, instead of staying behind to wait with them.
Not long after they parted, the Third Prince slipped out; he didn't want to miss the exciting scene ahead. He'd heard that Caitlin had brought quite a few pretty rookies with her, and if you arrived late, you wouldn't even get a chance to drink the soup.
Upon learning that her younger brother had slipped away, Anya simply sighed and said nothing more. However, her eyes remained fixed on the communication stone in her hand, maintaining constant contact with the team ahead.
Luo Fan was the first to make contact with the team of more than 20 mages in the air. They flew through the forest, checking the situation nearby, and also took care of a Demon Abyss Tree Python.
Hidden in the darkness are nearly 20 mages, advancing together along the dark path, having not yet made a move in the monster-killing earlier.
One in the light, one in the dark—the coordination is quite meticulous.
Since that's the case, let's take out those dark magic masters first and dampen their arrogance.
Having identified his hunting target, Luo Fan took action, spreading his divine sense along the ground.
In an instant, those guys realized their consciousness had been suppressed. Accompanying this was a spatial blade from the shadows. Before they could even scream, their heads were severed in two.
With perfect timing and spatial manipulation, coupled with his powerful clone, Luo Fan achieved an instant kill. After eliminating the group and retrieving their rings, Luo Fan vanished once more.
Upon noticing that their companion's consciousness had vanished, those flying above immediately became alert.
However, they were also met with swift assassinations; Luo Fan gave them no time to react. Once their divine sense was suppressed by his divine will, these guys became blind.
There was only one exception: the ice mage Luo Fan had met once before. He knew that Luo Fan's pet was the old snow maiden.
"No, Great God, please don't kill me!" With his divine sense suppressed, this guy didn't try to escape, but instead decisively begged for mercy.
Summon your pet!
A hoarse voice echoed through the woods, startling him so much that he quickly summoned his pet, then lay dead in front of the snow woman, his eyes filled with terror.
After its owner dies, the pet cannot escape from that separate space; it can only find a chance to escape once the space naturally collapses. However, powerful magical pets can break through the space's limitations on their own.
However, without its owner as an anchor, that space can easily drift away to other places.
After cleaning up the battlefield once more, Luo Fan carefully examined the snow woman before him, seemingly unaware of her sorrow. Her master appeared to be someone dispensable to her.
"You don't like him?" The voice pierced her heart, and the snow woman's expression changed. The rumor was indeed true, but she hadn't expected this slime to be so strong.
Those people's schemes before were like playing house; they even willingly came to their deaths—they were incredibly stupid.
"Hmm, it's annoying." Seemingly knowing something, she replied calmly, "You did this for that snow woman, right? Can I see her?"
"Why?"
"Help her break the level 70 barrier. Our race can only have one leader. To break through, one must step over the corpses of one's comrades. I'm old, and I don't have much time left."
It turns out that the Snow Woman's breakthrough was so brutal.
"No problem, just a moment, I'll go deal with a few ants and be right back!"
After saying that, Luo Fan disappeared.
"If I had met a guardian like you back then, I probably wouldn't be in this state now!" The Snow Maiden, standing beside the original owner's corpse, sighed as she watched Luo Fan leave.
She then completely froze her original owner and used Ice Blast, giving him a dignified end.
Luo Fan also noticed the snow woman's actions but didn't say anything. Because Anya had actually led her team to flee, jumping into a nearby spatial trap.
That woman is definitely not someone to mess with; I'll have to be careful from now on. I must eliminate her as soon as I get the chance!
As for the remaining group, Luo Fan didn't hold back. He even found the Third Prince among them, so the trip wasn't in vain.
