Chapter 38 - Moss’ Strength

n

nEll looked left and right and realized that she was alone at the moment.

n

nThe surrounding dense forest was lush and green, and countless terrifying monsters seemed to be hidden in it.

n

nShe hurriedly took two steps to catch up with Moss and Alan. In this Mystic Realm, she did not dare to be alone.

n

nAlan’s address of Moss made her a little curious. Ell followed behind Alan and could not help but ask, “Alan, is Moss the captain of your team?”

n

nAlan only nodded but had no intention of turning back. Ell felt incredulous.

n

nThe captain was the core character of a team, the soul. Either he had the wisdom to lead the team to victory, or he had the strength to convince the team. Although Ell felt that Moss could barely pass the test in terms of wisdom as he was only a Knight, his strength was obviously not high.

n

nCompared to Moss, Ell felt that Alan was more suitable for the team leader.

n

nAlthough Ell had her own thoughts, she did not say them aloud. After all, this was the matter of another team, so it was not appropriate for her to interfere.

n

nHowever, she already had a deep prejudice against Moss. She wanted to see how Moss would justify himself as the team leader.

n

nNot long after they had walked out of the forest, several crazed Explosive Wolves began to rush out of the woods. However, before these wolves could get close, most of them were numbed by Alan using a potion. Moss did not make a single move. This made Ell feel that Moss was like a burden that had simply followed Alan here.

n

nAs Moss’ team advanced, the number of Explosive Wolves roaming around increased. Ell also joined the battle. This time, Moss’ performance was beyond Ell’s imagination.

n

n“Be careful, Alan. That’s a Level-4 Explosive Wolf!”

n

nEll pulled out her sword from the body of an Explosive Wolf that she stabbed. When she saw that Alan was facing a Level-4 Explosive Wolf, she could not help but remind him.

n

nAfter this battle period, Ell understood the boundary of Alan’s strength more or less. In her eyes, Alan’s level should be around Level-4 to 5. It might be just right for him to face a Level-4 Explosive Wolf.

n

nEll did not have any intention of looking down on Alan. After all, her own level was only Level-3. It was not easy for her to level up after hunting with Cullen’s large team. Thus it must be more challenging for Alan to level up to Level-4 in such a short period with Moss as a burden.

n

nSeeing Alan and the Level-4 Explosive Wolf confronting each other, Ell was already prepared to go up and help. However, she saw Alan looking at Moss and motioning to the Level-4 Explosive Wolf. Moss nodded and actually swapped places with Alan.

n

nThis stunned Ell.

n

nWhat was going on? Why did Alan let Moss, the Knight, go up and take on the Level-4 Explosive Wolf?

n

nDid he have a grudge against Moss?

n

nAlthough Ell didn’t like Moss, she couldn’t leave him to die. She wanted to go up and help.

n

n“Moss!”

n

nShe was just about to walk up when her actions were stopped.

n

nA chubby hand blocked in front of her.

n

nIt was Alan who extended his hand. He explained, “It’s okay. Moss doesn’t need help. We’ll just stay here and watch.”

n

nAlan’s attitude made Ell even more confused. What was he doing? Did Alan want to train Moss? Was he not worried about Moss at all?

n

nBefore Ell could continue asking questions, a silver-white light flashed in front of her eyes. Then, something that looked like a sandbag fell heavily to the ground with a bang.

n

nEll turned around in shock and was surprised to find that the Level-4 Explosive Wolf had fallen to the ground in front of Moss. Its body was cut into two halves.

n

nShe looked at the sword that Moss was holding in disbelief. She was sure that it was an ordinary guard sword that gave off the great cold light just now.

n

nA shocking fact. Did Moss kill a Level-4 Explosive Wolf?

n

nShe had always thought that Moss was a burden, but he actually killed an Explosive Wolf single-handedly?

n

nThe earth-shattering change of Moss’ image in her heart made Ell feel a little uncomfortable for a moment.

n

nUntil Moss came back with the sword in his hand, she had not been able to react to the shock.

n

nThen she heard Alan say to Moss, “Moss, how is it? Have you leveled up?”

n

nMoss nodded and replied, “I’ve leveled up. In the future, I’m afraid that Magical Beasts around Level-4 will not be of much use to me. From now on, I’ll leave them to you.”

n

nEll was dumbstruck.

n

nShe finally understood why Moss was the leader of this two-person team.

n

nMoss had the strength to absolutely crush Alan.

n

nIf he did not level up when killing Magical Beasts, he is at least three levels higher than the Magical Beast itself. Judging from Moss’s instantly killing the Explosive Wolf earlier, his strength was definitely far higher than Level-4.

n

nMoss must be at least Level-7!

n

nComing to this conclusion made Ell extremely surprised.

n

nFrom what she knew in this Mystic Realm, there should be no one higher than Moss’ level. Even Cullen was only at Level-6.

n

nCullen was able to level up so quickly because there were other people constantly blocking the Magical Beasts, and then he would be the one to harvest the heads.

n

nFrom the looks of it, Moss had been fighting the Magical Beasts one-on-one.

n

nEll swallowed her saliva and could not help but feel incredulous. It was hard to imagine what kind of training Moss had gone through to get to this point.

n

nCould it be that he had been killing all the Magical Beasts he had seen since he entered the realm?

n

nBuzz.

n

nEll did not have time to be surprised. A tremor came, and the three people present could not help but be stunned.

n

nThe three of them had experienced such tremors before, and the instigator of the tremors had left a deep impression on them.

n

n“It’s the pack of Explosive Wolves!” Ell shouted. Her tone was filled with fear.

n

nMoss did not say anything. He looked at the dense forest around him and said, “Climb up the tree!”

n

nAlan nodded and quickly found a nearby tree to climb up. Ell quickly reacted and imitated Alan to find a suitable tree to climb.

n

nAs before, Moss jumped onto the tree with a leap. The three of them stood on the tree and looked vigilantly at the source of the sound.
