Chapter 90: Chapter 86: Mundane Familial Bonds Are Meaningless (Part 2)
This object was made based on the Tier Zero Magic, Communication Skill, and is an alchemy level magical item that can transmit messages remotely within a straight-line distance of less than one hundred kilometers.
Moreover, it doesn’t require Spiritual Power to activate, making it very convenient to use.
Sunan specifically made several of these, and gave one to Kei in addition to Sherman and the others, for contact in case of emergencies.
After activating the communication crystal, Kei’s voice quickly came through.
“Sunan?”
“Is there any situation on your end?”
Kei was stunned for a moment, seemingly puzzled, and then said, “No, you ask because…”
The sentence was interrupted as if by something, and it took a while before the voice came through again.
“Someone has invaded!”
Indeed!
Sunan’s gaze turned cold, and he said gravely, “I’m coming over now, be careful.”
As he finished speaking, he leaped, and Hidden Dragon appeared out of nowhere below, catching him just in time.
Sunan cast Feather Fall Skill on Hidden Dragon to lighten its weight, and the two then rushed towards Flash City.
“Lurking near the lord’s mansion; attack immediately if the negotiations fail, a brilliant strategy to also draw me out of the base.”
Sunan sneered coldly, his eyes filled with ice.
…
The Lord’s Mansion.
The once quiet estate was now in chaos.
Shouting and cries of battle echoed endlessly.
At the entrance of the council hall, amidst the heavy guards of more than ten knights, Kei looked intently at the fighting in the courtyard.
The enemies were three half-man, half-beast males, or rather, beastmen was more appropriate.
All three beastmen possessed the combat power of Peak Grand Knight level and were fearless of death, holding their ground against hundreds of Black Rock Leopards and Stone Golems.
However, what Kei feared more were not these three beastmen, but the gray-robed man standing not far away.
The opponent didn’t look strong but effortlessly killed three knights who tried to approach him with surprise attacks, using the same methods as Sunan, controlling lightning and flames.
Undoubtedly, he was a Wizard Apprentice!
“Is this the Wizard Apprentice behind Marquis Golden Rock?”
Kei’s face was heavy.
No one else would come to assassinate him at this time except the Wizard Apprentice behind Marquis Golden Rock.
No, it should be said that the Wizard Apprentice’s target wasn’t him.
Since the opponent had only killed three knights, from start to finish, he hadn’t made another move, standing leisurely as if waiting for someone.
The opponent clearly disdained making a move on him, aiming undoubtedly at Sunan.
Just then, Kei saw the gray-robed man’s expression change, immediately looking towards the courtyard entrance.
In a flash, Sunan had appeared in the courtyard.
He glanced around, instantly taking in the situation of the courtyard, finally fixing his gaze on the gray-robed man.
Herb Gillman!
Seeing Sunan, a hint of triumph flashed in Herb’s eyes, followed by a cold murderous intent on his face.
“I said you would regret it!”
“Today, let you taste the flavor of death!”
As he finished speaking, Herb spread his fingers and grabbed towards the sky, an electric crack sounded, countless electric snakes appeared out of thin air, instantly condensing into a blue-green spear in his palm.
In the next second, the spear shot out like lightning, piercing through the void towards Sunan!
Boom!
The Thunder Spear hit the invisible shield in front of Sunan, both extinguishing!
Energy Rune!
Sunan’s pupils slightly contracted.
This is the power of a Level 3 Wizard Apprentice.
A Level 3 Wizard Apprentice who has mastered controlling energy particles can create tremendous power with a casual strike like a gemstone!
A Grand Knight is powerful, but to a Level 3 Wizard Apprentice, it’s easily destroyed.
Although Shield Skill is Tier One Magic, it can only barely block his strike.
After throwing out the Thunder Spear, Herb quickly murmured an incantation, his fingers sharply pointing at Sunan.
Hiss!
A blindingly vivid red line appeared from the fingertip, shooting out like an arrow!
Where the beam passed, the air seemed to shrink backward as if scorched, forming visible distortions, showing its astonishing heat.
After casting the magic, a smug smile appeared on Herb’s face.
The power of Scorching Beam ranks among the top of Tier Two Magic, and a mere Shield Skill couldn’t possibly block it.
But what happened next made Herb’s smile freeze.
The crimson ray, just ten centimeters away from Sunan, suddenly seemed to hit some invisible object, disappearing without a trace as if into the vast sea.
How could this be?!
A hint of astonishment flashed in Herb’s eyes, but he quickly reacted.
A protective magic item?
And it’s a Micro-Light Level magic item!
An Alchemy Level magic item couldn’t silently block a Tier Two magic!
“This guy actually has a Micro-Light Level magic item on him!”
Herb’s eyes lit up instantly, and greed appeared on his face.
Nowadays, it’s hard to find intact Micro-Light Level magic items on the Starlight Continent, mostly they are damaged items left over from hundreds or thousands of years ago, even if they can be repaired, their power would be reduced to Alchemy Level.
As for making one oneself, that’s even more impossible.
Not to mention whether the technology exists, even if it does, the materials would also need to be found.
For this reason, he, a Level 3 Wizard Apprentice, has not had a single Micro-Light Level magic item to date.
“Kill you, and this is mine!”
The killing intent in Herb’s eyes grew stronger.
Sunan saw this and remained unmoved, releasing the prepared Magic Missile, only to have it blocked by the invisible shield on Herb’s body.
Seeing this, Sunan was not flustered; he already knew Tier One Magic had little effect on a Level 3 Wizard Apprentice.
He tossed a few Energy Rune gemstones to restrain Herb’s offensive and then loudly said, “Fall back, leave the courtyard!”
Combat between Wizard Apprentices is not something Knights and Grand Knights can interfere with.
Kei obviously understood this and decisively ordered.
“Everyone, withdraw from the courtyard!”
The guards responded in unison, protecting the Lord as they exited the courtyard.
The Black Rock Leopard and Stone Golem also didn’t hesitate to abandon their enemies and retreat.
The three Beastmen were about to pursue when a giant figure suddenly appeared before them.
A huge body made entirely of metal, gleaming with a cold sheen under the sunlight, exuding an overwhelming sense of pressure.
As soon as he detected the intruders at the base, Sunan placed the Steel Golem in the Magic Cube just in case, which was now being put to good use.
“Steel Golem!”
Herb was taken aback, not expecting Sunan to have such a puppet.
Was it crafted by himself or obtained from some wizard’s inheritance?
Faced with the Steel Golem at the Legendary Knight Level, the three Beastmen no longer had their previous vicious might and were quickly reduced to fleeing for their lives, completely suppressed.
Herb watched this scene, his face turning dark as he coldly snorted and took out a scroll, tearing it apart on the spot.
Amidst flashing lights, a giant bear over five meters tall appeared out of nowhere.
This beast had long limbs, sharp claws, and fangs, with skin that seemed to be a mixture of robust, heavy muscles and metal armor.
“Roar!”
As soon as it appeared, the giant bear charged fiercely towards Sunan.
“A Magical Pet, huh.”
Sunan recognized the scroll Herb tore apart; it was a Magic Pet Scroll, a single-use consumable specifically for holding magical pets.
It can store a magical pet in the scroll for convenient carrying, then release it for battle.
It is only for carrying magical pets.
And judging by this giant bear magical pet’s appearance, it was clearly physically modified, with combat capability at least at the Senior Grand Knight level judging by its aura.
Yet, when it comes to magical pets, Sunan expressed no fear.
Without his instructions, the Hidden Dragon had already launched an attack.
The charging bear magical pet seemed to crash headlong into something invisible and was hurled back with a crash, smashing a wall to pieces.
Amidst the swirling dust, the roars of beasts echoed, as two giant beasts engaged in fierce combat inside.
Herb was filled with uncertainty and doubt.
He had previously learned through Marquis Golden Rock’s intelligence channels that Sunan had a magical pet capable of invisibility.
But at that time, he hadn’t paid it any mind.
The invisibility ability might be rare and troublesome for ordinary people to deal with.
But for a Wizard Apprentice, it had little effect, with numerous ways to counter it.
However, upon actually witnessing Sunan’s magical pet, Herb was astonished to find that it wasn’t ordinary invisibility at all!
No invisibility ability could eliminate sound, scent, and even seemingly erase the body, making it almost unnoticeable when it moves.
Even as a Level 3 Wizard Apprentice, he could barely track the movement of that magical pet.
“Micro-Light Level magic item, Steel Golem, strange magical pet… This kid is simply sinister, how many tricks does he have hidden?”
