nLu Yuan gently knocked on the door. “Is anyone here? Is Sir Rhine here?”

nAfter a while, sounds of movement inside could be heard.

n

n

nCreak!

nThe door was opened.

n“Who are you looking for?”

nIt was an old man who had opened the door.

n

n

nHowever, his gaze was very sharp, and his body was still as strong as ever.

nLu Yuan said promptly, “Sir Rhine, I’m here to treat an illness.”

nWhen Rhine heard this, he was immediately a little angry and said, “Find someone else to treat the illness! There’s no one here to treat illnesses!”

nJust as he finished speaking, Rhine slammed the door shut.

n

n

nRhine had a very strange temper. As long as it was someone who made him unhappy, he would not treat the person.

nThis was also the reason why Rhine got angry the moment he laid eyes on Lu Yuan, because he could feel the aura of a thief on Lu Yuan, and Rhine hated thieves.

nLu Yuan could not help but be shocked. He had forgotten about this.

nHence, Lu Yuan put away the dagger and took out a white staff he got from somewhere, which changed his demeanor quite a lot.

nLu Yuan knocked on the door again.

n“Sir Rhine, there’s been a misunderstanding. I’m not a thief.”

n

n

nCreak!

nThe door opened again.

n“Please leave quickly and stop knocking on the door. Otherwise, I’ll call the guards over!”

nRhine seemed to be a little angry.

nLu Yuan was very calm and continued to say, “Sir Rhine, please look. I’m indeed not a thief. In fact, I’m a mage’s apprentice learning low-level magic.”

nLu Yuan gestured a few times and used the beginner magic skill, Summon Fire.

nA ball of flames appeared in Lu Yuan’s hand.

nWhen Rhine saw it, he could not help but be stunned, and the expression in his eyes immediately changed.

n

n

n“So you really are a mage’s apprentice.”

nLu Yuan nodded and said, “Yes, there was indeed a misunderstanding before.”

n…

nSince the misunderstanding was resolved, Lu Yuan entered Rhine’s Clinic.

nAfter entering, he could see that although the facilities here were a little old, the equipment was still very complete.

n“Young man, what disease do you have?”

nLu Yuan answered truthfully, “The Frost Moss Disease. I hope that Sir Rhine can create the potion to cure this disease.”

nWhen Rhine heard Lu Yuan mention the Frost Moss Disease, he could not help but be taken aback, as if he had recalled something terrible.

n“What?! Did you say the Frost Moss Disease? Are you sure it’s the Frost Moss Disease?”

nRhine was very shocked.

nFor a moment, Rhine could not believe it.

nLu Yuan nodded and said, “That’s right, it’s indeed the Frost Moss Disease!”

nRhine could not help but sink into his memories.

n

n

n“This sickness is a sequela that occurred after the snowstorm that year that suddenly swept over Amber City and took many people’s lives. When the snowstorm stopped, what followed was this sickness, which caused many to suffer excruciating pain. This is a disease caused by the invasion of frost elements into the human body. According to the results of the research conducted by the alchemists and mages at that time, the frost elements were the remnants of the snowstorm, but they were enough to leave people with this kind of illness!”

nAs he said this, Rhine could not help but look at Lu Yuan.

n“Young man, let me ask you again. Are you sure it is the real Frost Moss Disease?”

nLu Yuan nodded again. “I’m sure!”

nRhine could not help but sigh. “I thought we had cleaned up all the frost elements back then, but I didn’t expect it to still exist. Well, maybe this is fate. Young man, as long as you find the fire spirit herb, I can make the potion for it.”

nWith Rhine’s words, Lu Yuan also saw the change in his mission notification.

nMission notification: Find three fire spirit herbs and give them to Rhine.

nThe location of the fire spirit herbs was not difficult to find. It was near a fire cave not far south of Amber City.

nLu Yuan knew the location.

nHence, he quickly left the city and headed straight towards the south.

nAccording to the route in his memory, after leaving through the south gate, he had to pass through an area of woodland and turn into a mountain range from a small path.

nThen, he would see a place surrounded by flames where the surrounding temperatures would be rising rapidly.

nThe color of red flames would be everywhere, and it would seem terrifying as if one had entered a flaming mountain, but these flames were not corrosive. It was just that their temperatures were a little high and they looked somewhat terrifying.

nLu Yuan soon arrived at his destination, and he could already see a fire spirit herb in front of him.

nHowever, there was a monster called the fire python guarding it.

nIt was only normal for there to be monsters guarding these kinds of spiritual herbs.

nFire Python (Elite)

nLevel: 18

nHP: 2,500

nSkills: Flame, Bind, Tail Whip, Devour

nDescription: A kind of python that lives near fire caves. It treats the fire spirit herbs as its food to absorb the power of the flames, which allows it to gain a certain amount of flame evolution.

nHiss, hiss!

nThis fire python was spitting out its red tongue, its gaze already locked on to Lu Yuan.

nIn the eyes of this fire python, an intruder like Lu Yuan was to be killed without mercy.

nSuddenly, its huge head poked over and bit at Lu Yuan.

nIt looked extremely ferocious.

nLu Yuan had already reequipped Noah’s Dagger.

nHis gaze was bright as he looked in the direction of the incoming attack. Lu Yuan slid to the side and made the fire python’s attack miss.

nThen, taking advantage of the fire python’s inability to react in time, Lu Yuan brandished the dagger and quickly slashed at it.

n-40!

n-38!

n-39!

n-41!

n…

nA series of damage was dealt on the python, causing the fire python to feel pain.

nWith a roar, it used Tail Whip against Lu Yuan.

nLu Yuan noted the rhythm of the python’s attack and paid great attention to his footwork.

nThen, with a big MISS, he dodged this attack once again.

nLu Yuan took advantage of this gap and quickly pulled away.

nWith a raise of his hand, he activated and threw the Frost Descent skill over.

nA layer of frost appeared on the fire python’s head. Icicles formed from frost descended and aimed at the fire python.

n-341!

n-357!

n-345!

n…

nA terrifying amount of damage was dealt. Within the duration of the Frost Descent skill, the fire python was killed.

nThe HP of such a monster was not very high. It was only slightly higher than that of the giant frost ape.

nHowever, to Lu Yuan who had already mastered the Frost Descent skill, it was not considered much.

nPlus his skill had been upgraded and strengthened.
