Chapter 281 The Rogue Wizards’ Appearance
(From MC's perspective)
The wilderness,
The atmosphere became pin-drop silent. Looking at the cautious expression of the hunters, I sneered inwardly. Shaking my head, I finally decided to move away from this spot.
My original intention was to check my upgraded gravitational power. So there is no need for unwarranted bloodshed. When I moved, a sudden voice interrupted me.
"Wait," The level-3 leader of the group became courageous.
"Give me your storage bracelet," He slowly added further.
"Hmmm," looking at him, I raised my eyebrows in surprise. This guy is for real. Just a couple of seconds ago, I made up my mind not to harm them.
Then a wide grin appeared on my face.
The group leader was stunned. He thought the other party was so young. So he felt it was a good opportunity to loot. Unlike his teammates, he is not afraid.
But right now seeing the evil grin on the opponent's face, he couldn't help but have second thoughts.
On the other hand, I grumbled, "It's been so long since I saw some blood." Especially recalling the recent events that have happened to me. I want to vent my anger on someone else right now.
Who could be a better choice than the unknown rat in front of me?
"Gravity Field," I said.
The next moment, a terrible pressure appeared out of nowhere. I immediately sensed the pressure is many times more powerful than before.
Pfff
The rest of the hunters coughed up blood and suffered gruesome injuries to their bodies. They didn't even have time to scream.
Pfff
The four level-2 wizards immediately turned into blood mist. At the same time, the leader of the team is not in good shape either. He was a moment away from losing his last vitality.
As a level-3 wizard, he endured a little more compared to his teammates. His body was completely torn apart under pressure.
Pfff
A few seconds later, another blood mist appeared above the ground. In the end, his fate was nothing different from his teammates. From beginning to end, none of them had any time for thinking.
In a matter of seconds, everyone turned into blood mist.
"Wow, It's my level-1 spell," I mumbled under my breath. Now that I have seen the aftermath of the new spell. I realized it looked scarier than before.
If I had used this spell before, I'm sure Danny Quinn would have breathed his last breath on the spot. Now, I couldn't help but worry about Brent Dale.
Hope that guy is stronger than Danny Quinn. Otherwise, his ending will be worse than Danny's. The next moment, the lingering worries in my heart are swept away immediately.
Then I decided to move towards the large shade tree direction. It's the perfect place to test the further effect of the spell.
A few minutes later, I spotted a large boulder nearby a gigantic shade tree. This place has almost become my favorite resting spot in the wilderness.
Right now, there is no one around this location. It's very hard to see in this extreme darkness. Fortunately, I'm equipped with the necessary gadgets. Thanks to that, I can confirm the situation around me.
And also I don't want to release my mana breath unnecessarily. Someone can pick up my traces. So it is not wise to release mana breath in order not to attract attention.
Then my attention shifted towards the massive boulder. This boulder is 10ft tall in height. I immediately decided to use the gravity spell.
Pointing my fingers at the brown massive boulder in front of me, I uttered, "Gravity Field."
The next second, a terrible gravitational pressure landed on the gigantic boulder.
Boom
An ear-splitting sound reverberated throughout the area. When the smoke was released, I saw the aftermath of the spell.
The force was so powerful. As a result, the gigantic boulder blasted into multiple pieces under pressure leaving behind a small pit in that place.
A small sweat appeared on my face. I see no sign of the previous boulder in front of me except the pit. To think that boulder suffered such a fate then what about living organisms?
I want to use this spell on a high-rank power-type wizard. Unlike other wizards who were weak in their physique. The power-type wizard is known for its powerful constitution.
In the future, I believe only a power-type wizard can withstand my magic power to some degree.
Then removing the thoughts, I looked around me. Previous deafening sounds can attract some attention. It's better to leave right now.
Swish!
Then I released my full speed to move away from here.
A few minutes later,
I reached the dividing ridge. But I didn't stop my movement and continued to move ahead. I recalled the destruction of the boulder rock. Then I began to compare it with my first attempt a couple of months ago.
At that time, it took some seconds for mountain rock to get destroyed. But this time the massive boulder was pulverized. I believe my current gravitational pressure is no less than that of 100 tonnes.
A cold shiver went down my spine when arriving at such a calculation. But I understand this might be scary for average wizards. But for those taboo, sub-taboo, spiritual, unique and other rare unknown wizards, it's nothing.
Because presumably they too have some scary trump cards in their hands. It eases my heart after some realization. There is a good example before me such as Danny Quinn.
He is too powerful for other wizards. Only people like me and other spiritual wizards can handle me. So I'm not worried about my power grade. This trump card will save my life against a rank-6 wizard in future.
Then half an hour later, I reached the city wall.
After walking back to the city, I hopped inside one of the air cabs waiting at the platform.
Swish!
The air cab rose from the ground and moved towards the destination.
Seeing the disappearing sight of the city, a thought rose in my heart. I don't know when I will come back to this wilderness again.
Then closing my eyes, I waited for the cab to reach home.
...
On the other hand, many rogue wizards walk around the neighborhood near Vincent's home.
Many of them accepted the task from the tavern site. They are waiting for the perfect opportunity to sneak inside. But none of them dared to act alone.
Such a handsome reward, the rogue wizards won't allow one person to swallow it alone. Since it was night time, their movements didn't attract much attention from the residents.
But their activities didn't go unnoticed in a certain person's eyes. He is none other than John Meyer.
He stayed in a residential apartment opposite Vincent's home. After separating from Vincent, he didn't go anywhere; rather he monitored the location as he promised to Vincent.
Because he feared the dark league would send another assassin again. Earlier, he thought about requesting assistance from the academy.
But considering there is only one day before the final duel, he thought it was unnecessary. Because he had informed Vincent's parents about their departure to the academy right after the duel.
So it's a real waste of time for someone to come here at this point of time. As long as the enemy is not a level-6 wizard and above, he can deal with them easily.
That's why he has been monitoring the situation alone. But right now the appearance of several wizards immediately caught his attention.
Their movements were especially suspicious. He left the apartment after realizing that. He disappeared from the apartment and appeared on top of Vincent's neighbor's house.
John Meyers covered his mana breath and began to observe their movements. Before acting he wants to make sure there is no level-5 wizard and above in the vicinity.
Time passes in a blink of an eye,
About half an hour later, the number of wizards around Vincent's house was almost doubled in number.
"20"
"No, it's 21," John Meyer grumbled.
To think 21 rogue wizards are roaming in this small residential area is not a small matter. John's eyes never left them. He is now very much sure that everyone's target is Vincent's home right now.
From his observations, he noticed one thing. Almost everyone observed Vincent's home at least ten times. You don't need a big brain to analyze their intentions.
To him, it is very much clear that the rogue wizards are after Vincent and his family for rewards. A cold glint flashed in his eyes. Because he is almost certain that it is not the work of the dark league.
Because none of the rogue wizards is at level 4 and above. Everyone here is at the level 3 stage.
So someone else is behind this ongoing situation. The next moment, he disappeared from the spot and appeared behind one of the rogue wizards.
He grabbed his collar and dragged him towards the previous spot.
Thud
After dropping him on a terrace, James locked him with his mana pressure. The rogue wizard is scared sh!t. It all happened in the blink of an eye. The rogue wizard looked almost dazed after appearing here all of a sudden.
