Chapter 037 - Killing Time (II)

As soon as he entered the forest, and once he had left the group of messengers far behind, Johnsan released all four of his normal non-magical aliens, one in the front to open the way, and one on each side and in the back, and sped off into the depths of the forest.

Those five aliens that knew some spitting magic, Johnsan didn't intend to release them for the time being, after all, it would take time for the aliens to recover in the spirit space after being injured.

An alien can recover from a minor injury in a day in spirit space, while a serious injury will take about three days when it's slow.

"Those alien eggs haven't moved until now, if I had a hundred aliens now, where would I need to be so careful, just put a few dozen out and let them hunt by instinct." Johnsan thought in his heart, his body crouched down slightly on the back of the alien.

Not long after that, the night was as dark as ink, and the sky was full of dark clouds, not seeing the starlight and moonlight, Johnsan tried his best to open his eyes to see, but only three or four meters of visibility, he couldn't help but to order the Alien to slow down, relying on the Alien's sharp senses to slowly move forward.

Suddenly, Johnsan's mental powers sensed that the alien in front of him had stopped, and busied himself with slightly gathering the somewhat scattered aliens together as he slowly made his way to the front.

It was only when he got to the front of the room that Johnsan saw a body lying on the ground, a middle-aged male, with a shocking gash cut in his throat, the blood long since drained.

Johnsan jumped off the alien's back and carefully felt all over the man's body, but again, he couldn't find a single useful item, presumably long since scavenged by his killers.

Mounting the Alien, Johnsan was again under the Alien's protection, ready to march forward.

Steeply, the alien three or four meters away behind Johnsan dramatically flashed to the side, and at the same time, "Boom!" A huge rock emitting an earth-colored color fell from the sky, smashing into the spot where that alien was originally standing.

There's someone at the top of the tree!

Johnsan was startled when several more earth-colored boulders descended from the sky, crashing soundly straight down towards where he stood.

"Whoosh..." The other three aliens and Johnsan flashed to a dozen meters away in unison. "Boom!" With a series of loud bangs, the wet and soft ground in the forest was immediately smashed out into a huge crater.

"It's an earth wizard." Johnsan pondered as he ordered the two aliens to climb up the tree. The trees in the forest had all survived and grown for who knows how many years, their poles were thick and green and densely covered with leaves, so Johnsan tried to force the wizard down from above.

The aliens climbed the tree in a strange way, on the thirty meters high sleek trunk, they flung out their tails and stabbed at the trunk overhead to lend strength, their limbs moved at a rapid pace, and in the blink of an eye the two aliens disappeared into the dense tree trunks.

Receiving the mental communication message back from the alien from above, Johnsan couldn't help but be stunned that the alien hadn't found the wizard up there.

Suddenly, Johnsan felt a wave of panic, and before he could react, the alien on his hip was letting out a scream, and with a point of his toes on the cartilage of the alien's side, Johnsan's whole body flew down towards the back of an alien next to him, only to see that a sharp stone thorn had suddenly appeared on the ground, and had pierced through the alien's abdomen.

Sensing its pain in his spirit, Johnsan hurriedly sent the alien back into spirit space.

Silently, a dozen sharp stone spikes sprang up from the ground, and Johnsan commanded the alien to change directions from time to time, transforming into a trail of shadows, just to mess up the wizard's vision.

"Shoo!" "Shoo!" "Shoo!" "Shoo!" ...

A series of dozens of wind blades appeared around Johnsan and the two aliens close to him, traceless blades sizzling at all sorts of weird angles.

"A dual system wizard!" Johnsan then realized why the two aliens that went up to the top of the tree didn't find the wizard, he must have cast wind magic to change his position.

Even if Johnsan didn't know anything about magic, he could tell that to be able to cast so many wind blades at once, and to have them come in a weird and tricky way, he was definitely of the rank of Magician or above.

Thinking rapidly in his head, Johnsan commanded the aliens to leap upward rapidly, avoiding the circling wind blades. However, one of the aliens was still hit by the wind blade from a strange angle in its forelimbs, half of its claws were sliced off, and green blood gushed out sharply.

That's pretty tough.

Johnsan was secretly alarmed, his entire body moved steeply, his hands clasped the rough bark on the tree trunk, and his body, which had been genetically enhanced and modified by the aliens, crawled dramatically on the tree trunk, and instantly disappeared into the dense foliage.

Each of the other four aliens climbed the tree as well, and peace returned to the forest.

Barry hid in the dense woods, secretly chilled, he was almost a bit unbelievable, under his dual system magic several attacks, otherwise did not kill that teenager a magical beast, but instead forced the other party to the dark side as well.

Barry is the Bowron Empire's magician, and a magician with an unlimited future, out of the sample comes from a big family in the Bowron Empire, in order to get the notice to enter the Scarlet Narrows, the family elders do not know how much effort.

In fact Barry himself was confident, he had already killed three people since he entered this forest two days ago. One of them was a high-level magician, and there were two battle masters.

During the daytime, Barry would not act, the exposed wizard was vulnerable, he knew it in his heart, and only during the nighttime, he utilized wind magic to travel quietly and stealthily.

From the time Johnsan appeared in this area, Barry who had cast Wind Detection Magic had sensed it, Barry was even confident enough not to direct his first Rockfall Spell at Johnsan, but instead went to attack his summoned beasts, just to lure a few more people over through the sound triggered by the battle, so that they would fight amongst themselves, and hide on the side to pick up the advantage himself.

I didn't expect that seemingly milky-haired teenager to be so vigilant, and his summoned beast was extraordinary.

Barry thought darkly, stealthing up more carefully, wary of the tree trunks around him, as he mouthed a magical incantation and added a lightless wind shield to himself.

Barry enjoys assassinating people and highly dislikes being secretly coveted by others; there are times when he even feels more like an assassin than a wizard.

The woods were deathly silent, after a few days of killing, there was almost not even a single magical beast in this piece of forest, what was there, were only cold corpses and fellow travelers who did not know which corner they were hidden in.

The night is as cool as water, the night is as heavy as ink.

Barry only felt a little nervous, he disliked this feeling, mouthing a magic incantation, he quietly cast a wind questing magic, the wind elements in the air responded to his magical call and scattered in all directions like a dense net.

At first the sharp wind rose steeply, Barry's face changed greatly, not enough to turn back to see, a soundless cut through the sky unstoppable black blade broke through his wind shield, from the back of the heart stabbed, directly from the chest to break out of the cavity.

A slender hand came up from behind Barry and covered his mouth just in time to force Barry's scream back down his throat.

Barry's last look, he saw a middle-aged man with high cheekbones, letting out a silent and cruel smile, only to feel a coldness in his heart as the black blade cut across his neck again, and Barry instantly lost consciousness.

It was a man in black, who gently laid Barry's body on a thick branch and glanced around warily for a few moments.

There was another teenager over there, a couple of agile magical beasts.

The man in black knew in his heart, and he did not dare to be careless, biting the black sharp blade in his mouth, holding his breath and using his hand on a thick branch, his body gently swung, and he floated down noiselessly on another tree in the immediate vicinity.

Feet just stood, the black-clothed man's body forward a prostrate, not yet wait for him to move forward half a step, keen sense of perception only feel some throbbing in the air behind him, he instantly felt scalp numbness, the body of the strange twist, on the forward leap out a few meters away, the mouth threw out, mouth in the sharp edge of the blade to the right hand, and in line with the trend of the back to cut.

"Dang!" The sound of gold and iron clashing rang out, the man in black only felt a numbness in his right hand, at the same time, his keen sense of perception made him look up sharply, and he saw a strange magical beast standing on the trunk of the tree in front of his eyes, its tailbone glittering with cold light was grated away by itself, and at this moment, it was holding its huge mouth wide open, salivation dripping down ceaselessly, and its head stretched out towards itself.

The black-clothed man's pugnacity at this moment showed to its fullest extent, his body violently turned, like a stone generally fell straight down to the ground, the trunk of the tree two aliens sprinting down the tailbone fell into the air.

When he landed in mid-air, the black-clothed man's body hugged into a ball and jerked up, hooking his hands onto a tree trunk as if he were swinging on a swing, and his body landed lightly on the tree trunk.

"Puff!"

The black-clad man's performance like a top-notch sideshow was over, blood gushing from his abdomen as he was stabbed through the tailbone by an alien that had long been lurking in the trunk of a tree.

"Don't kill me." The man in black gripped the tailbone of the alien that had not entered his abdomen, blood seeping from the corner of his mouth as he said urgently, "I can be your helper, we can stand together."

It was the alien's head that answered him, and as the man in black stared in horror, the alien opened its mouth and came up to him, and with a violent flick of its strong hyoid bone, it stabbed a hole in the black man's head, splattering his brain in all directions.

Making sure there was no danger, Johnsan then gingerly stepped out of the branch behind the alien, unable to help but still feel a little nervous in his mind.

The alien had never been able to feel out where the wizard was hiding, and if the assassin hadn't made a steep move and the smell of blood had caught the alien's attention, it would have been hard to tell who would have won or lost the battle.

That magician was also unlucky, focusing only on dealing with himself, but he didn't even know that someone else had touched his side.

Taking the black blade from the man in black, Johnsan felt nothing but coldness in his hand and couldn't help but nod his head darkly as he stuck it at his waist. He had come prepared, but in the darkness of the night this black blade that didn't reflect was a much better weapon than the one he had prepared himself.

At this time, he noticed that the black-clothed man was carrying a ring on his hand, and took it off to see that it was indeed made of the same material as his spatial ring, which was made of seven degrees of gold.

Johnsan leaned over and felt around his body again, only to find another rope strung around his neck with three space rings tied to it.

"Looks like he's killed a lot of people." Johnsan said darkly, touching the wizard's body again and similarly searching for four space rings.

"Those who can come to the Scarlet Narrows are all people of ability or status, and almost all of them have space rings." The corners of Johnsan's mouth swung into a smile as he strung the eight space rings together with a rope and tied them around his neck.

"If he gets himself killed, then he's rich." Johnsan patted the space ring pressed under his shirt.

Simply not getting out of the trees either, Johnsan joined the four aliens, prancing and leaping between the giant trees as they ran down deeper into the forest.
