Soon, the huge creature that caused the ground to tremble appeared.
Upon seeing this enormous creature, Linley and the other children were completely stunned. Hillman, Lorie, and Roger reacted extremely quickly, directly standing in front of the children. He looked at the huge creature warily.
"Magical beast of the seventh rank, Velociraptor!" Hillman's expression changed, and Lorie and Roger's legs went weak.
Unlike the others, Leo leaned against the tree trunk and stared at the magical beast with interest. The Velociraptor's entire body was covered with large, fiery red scales, each of which shone with a cold, metallic luster. Just looking at it would cause one to feel a chill in their hearts. The Velociraptor's four scale-covered legs were shockingly thick. It would probably take two people to hug them. The Velociraptor's entire body was fiery red, and only its claws were a cold, dark black. The fiery red scales covered almost half of the dragon's body. Like a whip, it swept the ground. Every time it swept easily, a deep trench would appear on the ground. On the back of the Velociraptor sat a mysterious man dressed in a purple robe.
"Hmph!" Feeling everyone's gaze, the Velociraptor immediately let out a low groan. Two streams of white smoke came out of its nostrils, emitting a sulfurous smell. Its two lantern-sized, diamond-like eyes were strangely red. The enormous head of the Velocidragon turned towards Linley's group of youths, the cold red light in its eyes causing all of the youths to be so frightened that they didn't dare to move.
"Puchi, puchi." The Velociraptor chewed twice, revealing two rows of saw-like teeth. Each tooth was white, causing the children to feel a chill in their hearts. No one doubted its sharpness.
When the Velociraptor turned its head, all the children felt as if their hearts had stopped beating. At this moment, it was as if the outside world could not be heard.
"Is this Wushan Town?" The purple-robed mage asked coldly.
"Lord Magician, this is Wushan Town. Is there anything I can do for you?”Hillman immediately replied.
"Wushan township, it seems like we didn't go the wrong way.”The violet-robed mage said in a low voice. Then, the Velociraptor strode towards the center of Wushan township.
Seeing this, Hillman's expression changed drastically. He then said to the children beside him,"Everyone, stay here!" After saying that, he followed the Velociraptor.
Soon, the Velociraptor let out a roar. Hearing this roar, Lorie and Roger, who were also instructors with Hillman, quickly hurried over, while Linley and Leo quietly followed behind.
"Linley, Leo, why are you here? This place is too dangerous.”Hillman said sternly when he saw Linley and his brother.
"I'm just taking a look. It's okay!" Leo said calmly.
"Nonsense!" Hillman reprimanded loudly.
"Uncle Hillman, I'm not going back!”Linley said.
" You…" Hillman said angrily, then sighed." Sigh! Alright, you guys stay by my side and don't go far. With me by your side, I still have the confidence to ensure your safety.”
"Captain, what's up ahead?" Lorie whispered to Hillman.
Hillman's lips curled into a smile."That mysterious mage had a conflict with the mercenary team. We just need to watch from here and not interfere.”
When Leo heard this, he couldn't help but think, I'm afraid you guys wouldn't dare to make a move either!”
This seven-man mercenary team was not weak. Five of them were Warriors and two were Magicians. The leader of the mercenary team was a brawny man with messy red hair. There was a completely black iron bull under his crotch. The two sharp black horns of the Iron Bull shone with a metallic luster. The pair of red eyes showed that this Iron Bull was a magical beast of the fifth rank, the Bloodthirsty Iron Bull.
The Vampiric Iron Bull let out a humph, and two streams of white mist shot out from its nostrils.
There were a total of seven people in the mercenary team, four men and three women. The mages were all women, and one of them was an archer. Other than the Bloodthirsty Iron Bull, there was also a huge griffin flying in the air.
Gryphons were fourth-grade magic beasts!
It had a lion-like head, and its huge wings were even more powerful. There were two magic beasts and two mages in a mercenary team. Clearly, this mercenary team was not an ordinary team.
"Young man, you should hand over the Depello Shadow Diamond.”On the Velociraptor's back, the Magician's cold voice rang out once more.
"Lord Magician, we don't want to be enemies with you, but this Depello Shadow Diamond is something that we've spent a lot of effort to obtain. This Depello Shadow Diamond is worth 100,000 gold coins, but you want to exchange it for 700 gold coins?”The red-haired man with an afro said seriously.
"Humph." The mysterious mage snorted." I only have 700 gold coins on me, and I'm still spending gold coins to buy it from you. If you don't know when to retreat or when to retreat, then... not only will you not have a single gold coin, but you will also lose your lives.”
"Roar ~" After hearing its master's words, the Velocidragon, which was taller than most buildings in the town, let out a low roar. Its roar caused the houses on the side of the town to shake.
"Captain, we risked our lives to get this Depello Shadow Diamond. How can we give it to this guy who hides his head and tail so easily?”A black-robed woman said coldly. As experienced mercenaries, these seven people had experienced many battles and would not easily compromise.
"Esteemed Archmage, I, from the Kaila clan of the Kingdom of Fenlai…" The red-haired captain spoke in a low voice.
This captain wanted to use his background to pressure them.
Unfortunately, powerful mages were usually eccentric and did not care about nobles at all.
"You are the ones who are courting death." The mysterious mage snorted.
"Be careful." The seven members of the mercenary team were on high alert. Four male warriors were at the front, the female archer took out a powerful composite longbow from her back, and the other two female mages were preparing their spells.
"Roar!" The Velociraptor opened its mouth, and a huge ball of flames shot out, charging towards the mercenary team.
Wherever the huge flame passed by, the stone pavement in the middle of the town swelled, curled, and even shattered from the intense heat. Many stone slabs cracked, and the entire stone pavement was charred black.
"Be careful."
The leader of the red-haired men said in a low voice. A red Qi barrier suddenly appeared on his body, and the other three warriors also had their Qi barriers raised.
The red-haired man swung his greatsword at the wall of a stone house on the side of the street. With a deafening bang, the wall of the stone house collapsed. Hundreds of large rocks rolled to the ground, and dust flew into the air.
At the same time, the Velociraptor's flames engulfed the 4 Warriors, causing their battle energy shields to emit sizzling sounds.
"Ha!"
The red-haired man swung his right leg and kicked at a rock that was half a meter in diameter.
The other three male warriors did the same thing, kicking at the rocks as well. Each of the rocks seemed to be thrown out by a catapult. The four rocks cut through the air, whistling sharply as they flew towards the mysterious Magician on the back of the Velocidragon.
"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" Large stones were kicked at the mysterious mage one after another. The stone used to build the collapsed stone house was kicked away in a short while.
…………
Before the Magician could even make a move, the Velociraptor had already bitten one of the mercenaries to death.
"Don't look." Hillman stood in front of Linley and Leo. Right now, Linley and Leo were only eight years old. He was worried that this scene would become a psychological trauma for the two of them in the future.
When Linley first saw this scene, he felt quite uncomfortable as well, but he quickly adjusted himself. Although it was Leo's first time experiencing such a scene, he didn't care about it at all since he had survived a life-and-death situation like soul mutation.
At this moment, Leo's spiritual power was completely aware that the mage was chanting a magic spell."What a strange spell. Even I, who don't have the Fire Element, can sense the unusual movement of the Fire Element in the air. Moreover, this unusual movement is very regular.”
It was Little Lie's first time seeing magic, and he was obviously very excited about it.
Soon, the spell was completed.
"Dance of the Fire Serpent!" The mysterious Magician's cold voice suddenly rang out. Seven tens of meters long fire snakes rolled and roared as they flew in all directions. Each fire snake looked like a real one. Each fire snake's scales were distinct, and their huge bodies made people's hearts tremble.
Leo was excited when he saw the fire snakes. With a thought, he drew out the endless earth elements from the ground and quickly formed a khaki wall in front of the remaining mercenaries.
"Boom!""Boom!" Seven consecutive sounds rang out. The Magician's Dance of the Fire Serpent was instantly annihilated by the earthen wall.
Leo's eyes lit up."I see. In a situation where there is no magic, using only magical elements to defend will consume hundreds of times more spiritual energy than him…but this bit of spiritual energy is nothing to me! However, this is only a grade-8 spell. If it was a forbidden spell, I might not be able to withstand it.”
"Who is it?" The Magician on the Velociraptor's back suddenly said in a cold voice.
"How annoying!" Leo looked at the mage coldly. Soon, a stream of spiritual power rushed into the head of the raptor under the mage…
"Boom!" The Velociraptor fell to the ground without any warning…
"What happened?" The Archmage nimbly leaped down from the Velociraptor's back and examined it closely. His expression changed drastically,""Mental attack! Killing my Velociraptor without any warning, this…this is…the means of a Grand Magus Saint!”
The purple-robed mage kneeled on the ground in fear."Grand Magus Saint, I was wrong…Please forgive me…"
" This is…" The sudden turn of events left the mercenary group and Hillman dumbfounded." Could it be that a Grand Magus Saint passed by just now and killed the Velociraptor to punish this mage?"”
Leo was also dumbfounded." I just wanted to try my mental attack. I really didn't mean to kill this raptor. Besides, this mage is too spineless!"”
Thinking of this, Leo laughed in his heart. Then, he used his spiritual power to increase the pressure on the purple-robed mage and the mercenary group. Then, he used his spiritual power to change a voice in their minds and said coldly,"Get lost!"
When the mage heard this, he fled in a panic as if he had been pardoned. The mercenary group shouted,"Thank you for saving my life, Grand Magus Saint!" Then, she hurriedly ran away…
"What a pity…I didn't get to see the Grand Magus Saint's true face!”Hogg, who had appeared at some point in time, sighed." A mere mental wave was able to kill such a powerful Velocidragon. Grand Magus Saints are truly terrifying!”
