In front of the mercenary tavern, the students of the Barovacs Academy had already packed their bags.
"Where's Xia Ya? Why haven't you come back? It's been three days." Ifat was a little impatient, he hadn't seen Xia Ya for several days.
"It's just a small task, can't it be so difficult?" Kadina also became puzzled, her big eyes fluttered, "But it's really strange, in the Holy Roman Empire, there are also undead magic practitioners, even if they want to practice , or go to the Roland Empire or other places."
"It should be said that the necromancer is too stupid, that's right, what does a kid who is only fifteen years old know?" Ifat smiled and said, "Our Roland Empire is better, the country of freedom, you can practice whatever you want to practice." There are no taboos for practicing anything, as long as you don’t violate the laws of the empire. It’s not like the Holy Roman Empire. This heretic and that are not allowed to practice. I feel uncomfortable when I come to the Holy Roman Empire... "
"Go back if you don't want to come, no one is forcing you to come..." Merklin said coldly.
Merklin spoke stingingly, making Ifat blushed with anger.
He pressed the space bag with one hand and shouted loudly, "Merkelin, are you looking for death?"
Not to be outdone, Merklin said with a sneer, "Hehe, whether I'm courting death or not depends on whether you have the strength..."
"Okay... okay..." Ifat smiled angrily, and he didn't talk nonsense, he directly drew his two-handed sword from the interspatial bag, "Then let me see how much your strength has improved?"
"Hey... Come here, I'm afraid you won't make it!" Merklin also took out the white jade-like paladin scepter from the space bag.
The two confronted each other coldly, neither would let the other.
"Stop arguing, look, Sister Xia is back..." At this time, Kadina pointed to the black dot in the air and said, her sharp eyes had already seen Xia's Silver Winged Pegasus.
When Shaar came back, the two lost their interest in the duel. Ifat snorted coldly, put away the sword, and put aside a scene, "You are lucky today, but this matter will not be left like this..."
Merklin also sneered, put away the scepter, and wanted to duel, one-on-one, he was absolutely not afraid of Ifat, otherwise the captain would not be his turn, Balovax Academy has never lacked geniuses .
A gust of wind blew up on the ground, Shaar's silver-winged Pegasus flapped its wings and fell to the ground.
"You're back, Shaar..." Ifat stepped forward quickly, his eyes full of concern, "How is it, the mission is going well!"
Hearing this, Xia Ya's body visibly trembled, and he responded lightly, "Mmm—"
Neither said it was done nor said it wasn't done.
However, Kadina saw that Xia Ya's spirit seemed to be not very good, she walked up to support Xia Ya's arm, and asked with concern, "Sister Xia, are you okay?"
Xia forced a smile, "I'm fine..."
"what?"
Just when Shaar turned around, Kadina was stunned for a moment, and she found a small crack that was not obvious on the back of Shaar's breastplate.
"Didn't she go to catch a necromancer who was only fifteen years old? How could that be?" Looking at Shaar's pale face, it was obvious that after an extremely fierce battle, Kadina was puzzled, "What the hell is going on? one thing?"
Xiaya obviously didn't notice this. After fighting Ron, she was injured a little bit, and most importantly, her battle energy was exhausted. She didn't want to appear in front of her classmates with such a miserable appearance.
Being defeated by a fifteen-year-old child using the most rubbish undead magic is not a glorious thing anyway. Xia Ya was also afraid of being ridiculed by them, so he found a hotel for two days to recuperate before he dared to appear in front of his classmates. before.
At this moment, she took her own Silver Winged Pegasus absently and said, "Let's go."
Merklin nodded, "Let's go!"
Although Kadina felt strange, she was a considerate girl, she didn't ask this matter out, and she also saw that Shaar was trying to hide something.
…
By the small river, on a large bluestone covered with aquatic plants, a frog is slowly crawling out of the hole, with high bulging eyes, a bulging belly, and a strange round protrusion on its lower jaw. It is its poison sac.
Poison dart frog, a third-level beast, will shoot deadly poison arrows when attacked, even cultivators have to be careful.
In the dark, this poison dart frog was stared at by a pair of pitch-black eyes. He hid in the dark side of the trees, covered his body with thick leaves, and used the natural protective color to hide his whereabouts.
When the poison dart frog turned around, its back was facing the opponent, at this moment, the black shadow in the woods moved.
I saw him chanting magic spells in a low voice, and his gestures were constantly changing. After a while, a skeleton warrior suddenly appeared, waving the bone knife in his hand, and rushed towards the poison dart frog.
The skeleton warrior raised his hand, his black eyes glowed green, and he made a sprinting gesture.
The poison dart frog was stunned for a moment, but as a creature in the dark forest, its reaction was definitely not slow. With a flick of its legs, it jumped up like a cannonball, easily dodging the sprinting attack of the skeleton warrior.
"Damn it, that guy's speed is really fast..." the shadow in the darkness roared angrily, it was obvious that the sneak attack just now failed.
The poison dart frog opened its mouth suddenly, the poison sac shrank, and a jet of green liquid shot out like an arrow, fast, accurate and ruthless.
"Hiss—"
At this time, there was a sharp sound, and at the same time, a burst of white smoke rose from the skeleton warrior's chest. It turned out that the skeleton warrior was unable to dodge in time, and was shot by the strong venom sprayed by the poison dart frog, and a large hole appeared in the fragile bone immediately. The opening of the hole continued to expand, making a sound of "hiss... hiss...".
"Wow, it's so violent and highly poisonous, if the human body gets a little bit on it, it will be over..."
The black shadow in the woods exaggeratedly called.
Immediately afterwards, Hei Ying raised his hands high, and bursts of black air appeared in his hands.
"Look at me, the Skeleton Restoration Technique..."
The skeleton recovery technique was released, and a strange energy began to repair the skeleton warrior's damaged bones. There was a crackling sound in its body, and the corroded bones grew out instantly.
Seeing that its attack was ineffective, the poison dart frog became angry. It croaked, but its round eyes were fixed on the back of the tree.
The skeleton in front of him is just a puppet, and the one who really wants to attack is the person who manipulates the puppet.
It opened its mouth wide, and shot out another poisonous arrow, but the target was the black shadow behind the tree.
"Hehe, you found me so quickly... Not bad..."
The black shadow was unhurried, stretched his hands down, and didn't see how he chanted, a shield made of bones suddenly appeared in front of him.
There was also a "hiss—" sound.
The white smoke emitted by the poisonous arrows on the bone shield gave off a strong sour smell, making the black shadows in the trees frown.
"There is only one trick to come and go, nothing new at all, go to hell, look at me, bone spurs..."
After Heiying finished speaking, a black bone spur as long as a dagger flew out of his hand, and shot straight at the poison dart frog like an arrow off the string.
"Croak...", the poison dart frog let out the last wail of its life. Its head was pierced by a powerful bone spur, and it was nailed straight to the tree. The sharp bone spurs were still shaking.
"Done and call it a day... Hehe, dinner tonight is settled..." The shadow behind the tree came out, and he was none other than Ron.
It has been more than three months since he escaped from Maple Leaf Town. In the past three months, Ron has been living alone in the dark forest. Apart from practicing, he is hunting every day, struggling to fill his stomach.
At the beginning, Ron thought that he was very powerful, and it would not be difficult to kill a second- and third-level beast with the "powerful" undead magic, but he later discovered that even with undead magic, it is not difficult in the dark forest. It is so easy to hit the prey, the beasts here live in the slaughter every day, and their alertness and reaction ability are very strong.
In the beginning, not to mention hunting, Ron was almost killed by prey a few times because of magic mistakes. For a few days, Ron had to practice hungry, and picked some wild fruits to satisfy his hunger when he couldn't stand it.
However, with the improvement of Ron's cultivation base, and the more proficiency in using undead magic, the hunting began to become much easier. Within a radius of ten miles, all the beasts that can threaten Ron have entered Ron's stomach. This third-level poison dart frog is the last beast that can threaten him. If Ron three months ago, even a poison dart frog The arrow couldn't catch it either.
Although the poison dart frog is highly poisonous, the meat tastes surprisingly delicious. Ron drooled unconsciously when he just stared at it.
This poison dart frog weighed about ten kilograms, enough for Ron to eat several meals.
Ron approached with a smile. The head of the poison dart frog was shot to pieces with bone spurs, but the body was still intact.
Lowering his body, a bone spur appeared in Ron's hand. He carefully removed the poison sac from the poison dart frog and threw it aside.
Fortunately, the poison sac was not broken, if there was a little bit of it, the frog meat would not need to be eaten.
"Hey... You almost killed me back then, but now you got into my stomach..." Ron smiled triumphantly while dissecting the poison dart frog with bone spurs.
Skillfully dismembered the poison dart frog, and threaded pieces of frog meat with branches. Ron obtained local materials, found some dry wood, and lit a fire on the spot.
Ron put the skewered frog meat on a simple rack, and the pyre below was burning, making a crackling sound.
After a while, the frog meat turned into an attractive golden yellow.
While turning the stick in his hand, Ron tried his best to burn every part of the frog meat evenly, and said to himself, "The 'bone shield' that Grandpa Homelin taught me is really useful, and has saved me several times. What about my life? But my speed of summoning the bone shield is still a bit slow, it would be great if it was faster, after all, this is my only life-saving skill... "
Talking to himself is Ron's habit. He is too lonely in this place full of beasts, so he has to use this method to relieve his distress, otherwise, he will not even be able to speak sooner or later.
