Dawn gradually rose!
The originally vast central region of the Mountain Range of Magical Beasts had experienced an entire night of commotion.
First, there was an explosion caused by the violent collision of combat qi, and then there was a huge wind pressure caused by the passing of a typhoon. The magical beasts in this area were roaring non-stop in the middle of the night.
On a thousand-meter-tall tree, the tall Elena was in a sorry state.
She looked at the forest behind her in horror for a long time before finally sitting down on the fork of the giant tree.
"He shouldn't be able to catch up!”
Thinking of the instant kill of Skinny Monkey, recalling the crushing defeat of Qiangsen in the head-on collision, the memory stopped at the scene of the typhoon passing through.
Elena's face was filled with bitterness.
"What kind of existence have we provoked?”
"He's definitely not a dual-element magus of the eighth rank!”
The strange scene of the wind stopping in a radius of a thousand meters in an instant, the typhoon arrow casually thrown out, the terrifying explosive battle-qi, and even the death charge of a warrior of the eighth rank.
This was not something a weak young mage could do.
The man named Lorne had extremely terrifying attainments in fighting spirit and magic.
"It's rumored that there are three Divine level experts on the Roland Continent. One of them had not aged even after a thousand years. Could it be him?”
"No, that's not right. Saints all have their own domains, let alone the pressure produced by Deities. "If he's one of the five Divine level experts, we won't even be able to get close.”
"But even if he's not that kind of existence, Lorne is definitely an old monster who looks like a young man but has lived for hundreds of years!”
Women's psychological quality was relatively fragile to begin with.
Elena's mental defense was completely crushed after her comrades died and the enemy was unprecedentedly powerful.
Right now, she was like a frightened bird, and her mind was filled with all kinds of thoughts.
She even had the completely unrelated thought that Lorne might be the Crimson Queen who had risen strangely more than 200 years ago.
After a long time, she finally calmed down.
After many years of fighting, she slowly built up her own psychological defense.
"In our team, Qiangsen is good at frontal assault, Skinny Monkey is good at assassination and disguise, and Dark Night is an archer on the surface, but he is actually a magus of the seventh rank.”
"And I am the strongest existence in the jungle!”
Elena's eyes wandered around the primitive trees that were thousands of meters tall. The shortest one was hundreds of meters tall.
On her wrist, there were a few silver threads that were glowing.
She spent the entire night on the run.
Along the way, high-level Magical Beasts attacked her from time to time.
However, she dodged all of them with the help of the silk thread in her hand.
Although he was somewhat lucky, he still managed to stumble into the inner regions of the Mountain Range of Magical Beasts and luckily survived.
Now that he thought about it, no matter how strong Lorne was, he would not dare to recklessly charge around here!
Humans were limited by their physiques, and before they reached the Saint-level, they were unable to fly in the sky.
Even if he relied on his battle energy, he could only stay in the air for a short period of time.
However, as long as there were tall buildings nearby, Elena could fly freely.
With this unique skill, even if she could not defeat Lorne, she could still run away freely.
"I'd better take a good rest and find another place to leave the Mountain Range of Magical Beasts!”
"I wonder if the Machinery Hivemind Mercenary Group will ask me about Qiangsen and the others after I get out.”
She was a little worried, but the intense fatigue made Elena slowly close her eyes.
However, just as she was about to fall asleep, a nightmarish figure appeared in her blue eyes.
......
"Is this the reason why you can fly through the Mountain Range of Magical Beasts despite being only a warrior of the seventh rank and not a Saint-level?”
Glancing at the woman trembling in the corner of the tree branch, Lorne played with the silver thread in his hand.
With a casual tug, the silver thread was pulled to the extreme, like a taut string.
However, no matter how hard Lorne tried, the thread did not break.
Not only that, but after Lorne let go, the silver thread instantly returned to its original state.
"Interesting. I seem to have seen this thing in a book before. Let me think."
Lorne fell into deep thought. It was impossible for him not to have an impression of such a strange material.
Elena shrank into a corner and looked at Lorne, who was deep in thought and did not care about her at all. This was the best time to escape, but she could not bring herself to think of escaping at all.
"How could I forget? He's a high-level wind-style mage, or even an Archmage.”
"This is the only one among the four elemental magi who can fly without reaching the Saint-level.”
"Dark Night once said that as long as a high-level wind mage is familiar with the level-7 spell, Wind Soaring Spell, or Wind Wings Spell, they can fly freely in the sky.”
She had forgotten. Elena had really forgotten.
Dark Night was also a magus of the seventh rank.
Whether it was the Wind Soaring Spell suitable for long-distance flight or the Wind Wings Spell suitable for battle, they seemed to be only at level-7, but to maintain them, they needed a huge amount of mana.
In other words, this was a skill that any grade-7 wind mage could learn.
However, if one wanted to use it freely, one had to be at the ninth rank or even a Grand Magister.
It was because Dark Night did not use this spell that she subconsciously thought that most ordinary Wind Magicians did not know how to use it.
But Lorne, was he an ordinary mage?
"I remember now!"
Lorne smiled as he held the silver thread in his hand.
"This is Leviathan Tendon!"
"Legend has it that Leviathan was born a magical beast of the ninth rank and reached Saint-level when it matured. On its long spine, there were thin tendons.”
"And there is another powerful magical beast, Leviathan's natural enemy-Behemoth! Both were existences of the same level, and they fed on each other.”
"The sharp claws and fangs of the Behemoth are a great threat to Leviathan's spine. In the long process of evolution, in order to prevent the behemoth from biting off its spine, it had to be able to break through its bones. Leviathan had evolved the tendons that wrapped around its spine to an extremely tough state.”
Lorne looked at Elena with a face full of joy."I didn't expect you to have such a treasure. These tendons must have been left behind by the Saint Leviathan."”
"That's right. Perhaps only such a treasure can easily withstand a human's Dou Qi. No matter how hard he pulled, it would not break.”
Lorne had already figured out the secret behind Elena's flight in the Magic Beast Mountain Range.
It was nothing more than infusing battle energy into Leviathan's tendons, and then relying on its sharp and tough characteristics, it flew on every giant tree.
Of course, this kind of operation required an extremely high level of skill.
Other high-level warriors might not be able to do it.
Elena was confused.
To be honest, she had obtained this thing in the Mountain Range of Magical Beasts a few years ago, so she had no idea where it came from.
However, Lorne recognized it after a simple thought.
She didn't believe that a sixteen-year-old youth could possess such profound knowledge.
This made her even more convinced that Lorne was an old monster whose appearance did not change!
Elena bit her lips and pretended to beg,""Senior Lorne, I don't dare to have such a precious treasure. Why don't I give it to you, senior?"
Senior?
Lorne looked at her with a faint smile.
"Don't tell me you think I'll let you off just because of this?”
Lorne pointed back and said,"Do you know how many high-level magical beasts I've killed and how much mana and fighting energy I've spent to chase after you?”
"Also, why do you think that I will let go of an enemy who is scheming to kill me?”
"Just because you're a good-looking woman?”
As he spoke, a wind blade condensed in Lorne's hand.
Just as he was about to kill Elena, she suddenly knelt on a wide branch.
"Lord Lorne, please forgive my stupidity and ignorance!”
"I'm willing to serve you as my master for the rest of my life. I can't betray you!”
Lorne shook his head."A verbal oath is as simple as turning a page to a person like you.”
Elena's face was pale, and she put her trembling hand into her chest.
Lorne was not afraid that she would plot against him. If it was a seduction, he would not take it to heart at all.
As the second son of an earl, there were plenty of beautiful women from the commoners and nobles who threw themselves at him. He did not fall for this.
A thin, pitch-black scroll was placed in front of Lorne.
Lorne frowned, picked up the scroll, and then looked at Elena.
"Are you sure?"
Elena gritted her teeth, her eyes filled with tears.
"I'm willing to serve you!"
Playing with the scroll in his hand, the system's appraisal voice in the depths of Lorne's mind gave him an affirmative reply.
"Soul Slave Contract Scroll. It is engraved with a dark magic spell that can cast a soul slave contract. The restriction of the contract target is below the Divine rank!”
