nThe female mage’s face was filled with unwillingness and disbelief. She slowly fell to the ground, and her body gradually turned cold.

n

n

nLeas seemed to secretly let out a sigh of relief.

n

n

n

n

nJoelson dispersed the ice blade and took out a clean white handkerchief to slowly wipe the bloodstains on his hands.

n

n

nElegant, calm, and noble, as if he had accomplished a trivial matter that was not worth mentioning.

n

n

n“Leas, which batch is this?”

n

n

nLeas frowned and thought for a while before saying, “It’s the third batch. Young master, I’d better put on my scarf.”

n

n

n

n

nJoelson shook his head and said indifferently, “It’s not because of you. They died because they deserved to die. Since they are greedy, then they should be prepared to pay the price for their greed at any time.”

n

n

n“Let’s go.”

n

n

nAfter saying this to Leas, Joelson walked into the depths of the forest.

n

n

nThere was no need to deal with the scene or the bloodstains. In less than a day, the corpses behind him would be licked clean by the magical beasts that came smelling the blood.

n

n

n

n

nAt night, a small bonfire.

n

n

nThe young adventurers sat around the bonfire, relaxing their fatigue during the day.

n

n

nThe flickering flames protected the girl’s beautiful face.

n

n

nThis face that seemed to make the moonlight lose its color was now shrouded in a faint worry and melancholy.

n

n

n“Rosalind, eat something first.”

n

n

nA roasted deer leg was handed over from the side.

n

n

n

n

nThe girl shook her head slightly and said softly, “Brother, I’m not hungry yet.”

n

n

nThe handsome young man who looked somewhat similar to the girl could not help but frown.

n

n

n“Rosalind.”

n

n

nThe handsome young man said rudely, “If you continue like this, then I can only ask Herman to send you back immediately.”

n

n

nA middle-aged man next to him opened his eyes.

n

n

nHis bright eyes were like a bolt of lightning that lit up in the darkness.

n

n

nThe girl named Rosalind was silent for a while before she took the deer leg obediently.

n

n

nOnly then did the handsome young man’s eyes become gentle.

n

n

n

n

nAt this moment, someone walked up quickly.

n

n

n“Young Master, if we keep lighting the bonfire at night, we might attract magical beasts. Should we…”

n

n

nThe handsome young man glanced at Herman who was beside him. Herman said indifferently, “The magical beast territory of the Elf Forest is strictly divided. We can only encounter tier 8 magical beasts in the middle and outer areas. It doesn’t matter.”

n

n

n“Then there’s no need to extinguish it.”

n

n

nThe handsome young man waved his hand, indicating for that person to leave.

n

n

nAt this time, a figure silently floated out from another patch of grass. He said in a low voice, “Young Master Bradley, someone is approaching us.”

n

n

nEveryone who was resting instantly picked up their weapons. Each of them exuded a strong aura.

n

n

nThere were mages and knights.

n

n

nOnly Herman did not seem to care. It was as if everything around him did not interest him at all.

n

n

n“How many people?” Bradley asked in a low voice.

n

n

n“Two. It seems to be a man and a woman.”

n

n

n“Tell them to come over. Everyone else, be on guard.”

n

n

n“Yes.”

n

n

n

n

nSoon, two figures appeared in front of everyone.

n

n

nA handsome young man and a delicate and slender young girl.

n

n

nThe two of them seemed to be covered in starlight as they slowly walked out of the night, causing everyone to be in a daze.

n

n

n“Elves.”

n

n

nHerman narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice.

n

n

nEveryone subconsciously looked at Leas, and naturally noticed her slightly pointed ears.

n

n

nJoelson looked at this group of people coldly, and the tungsten wood staff appeared in his hand.

n

n

nThe atmosphere on the field suddenly became tense, as if the battle would happen in the next second.

n

n

n“Stop!” Bradley shouted.

n

n

nThis group of strange adventurers could only slowly put down the weapons in their hands.

n

n

n“We have no ill intentions. We don’t want to be enemies with you.”

n

n

nBradley stood up and walked in front of Joelson, but he was facing the direction of Leas.

n

n

n“We are friends of the elven race. We are here to visit the elven race.”

n

n

nAs he spoke, Bradley made a strange and solemn gesture.

n

n

nJoelson saw Leas’ eyes light up, and he returned the gesture in the same way.

n

n

nBradley invited the two of them to sit down by the bonfire.

n

n

nBut Joelson didn’t relax at all.

n

n

nThis was the only shortcut to the Elven Holy Land.

n

n

nHe did not expect to meet other adventurers.

n

n

nThis group of people gave Joelson a very different feeling from ordinary adventurers.

n

n

nThey seemed to have trained very well, and their strength was all above level 7. They vaguely formed a formation to protect the young man and woman in the middle.

n

n

nThey were more like guards than adventurers.

n

n

nMoreover, if he was not mistaken, this young man, Bradley, who was no more than 20 years old, had clearly reached the level of a level 7 knight.

n

n

nA genius who was not inferior to Don Quixote at all?!

n

n

nWhat he could not see through the most was the middle-aged man standing silently behind Bradley.

n

n

nHis strength was completely undetectable by Joelson.

n

n

nThere seemed to be an invisible energy field around the middle-aged man’s body. Whenever Joelson’s spiritual power tried to approach him, the other party would glance at him.

n

n

nThis made him feel as if he was being targeted by Du Lu.

n

n

nAt least level eight!

n

n

nAnd it was very likely that he was a level nine knight!

n

n

nWhy would such a powerful group of people come to the Elf Forest?

n

n

nThere was no way for Joelson to know, so he could only stay by their side for the time being.

n

n

nEven if the other party really had some bad thoughts, he was absolutely confident that he could summon Du Lu and escape safely in the shortest time possible.

n

n

nBradley and Joelson casually exchanged a few words.

n

n

nIt showed that they were well-mannered and had a prominent family background. They looked more like a noble than a new noble Marquis who graduated from Tulip Magic Academy like Joelson.

n

n

nBut they didn’t look like people from Alcott or the surrounding kingdoms.

n

n

nThe other girl who was silently eating the roasted deer leg didn’t say a word from the beginning, as if she had a heavy heart.

n

n

nAfter that, Bradley was very friendly and gave a brand-new tent to Joelson and Leas.

n

n

nJoelson felt that the other party was doing this because of Leas’ identity.

n

n

nAt night.

n

n

nHerman silently walked to the side of Bradley, who was facing the bonfire and silently wiping his sword.

n

n

n“Are there any problems with these two?” Bradley asked.

n

n

nHerman shook his head slightly and said, “This young man is quite talented. He is a sixth-rank mage. At the same time, he also cultivates the way of knights. He has also reached the seventh-rank knight.”

n

n

nThe corner of Bradley’s mouth twitched slightly as if he found it funny.

n

n

n“He seems to be a student who came out from some academy to train. There is nothing to pay attention to. On the contrary, it is the elf.”

n

n

n“What’s wrong with the Elf?”

n

n

nHerman revealed a rare serious expression and said, “I feel a natural aura from her body, second only to the moonlight priest of the Elf race.”

n

n

n“Really?!”

n

n

nBradley immediately stopped wiping his sword, his eyes bursting with surprise.

n
