While the two of them were resting.
Occasionally, a few monsters would escape from the direction of the main battlefield, and they would deal with them casually with the help of a wolf.
Gauss’s gaze followed the fallen monsters in front of him, looking back. His gaze was long.
It seemed as if he could see the main battlefield through this endless green sea.
The battle there must be very intense.
"I wonder how the situation is with President Abelhard?"
"It should be going smoothly," Aaliyah replied. "From these fleeing monsters, we can tell that the monster army on the main battlefield must have suffered a significant blow."
"The only one who might cause trouble is the ogre mage, Its challenge level should have reached level 8, But with the presence of the president and several other Black Iron Level adventurers, It shouldn’t be too much of a problem."
Gauss listened to Aaliyah talk non-stop, She was clearly introducing the information to him, who was unfamiliar with the situation.
Information about the ogre mage flashed in his mind.
The ogre mage is a caster by nature, A mature ogre mage possesses casting abilities equivalent to those of a level 9 warlock.
Besides possessing spell-like abilities, Their racial traits also grant them more troublesome abilities: regeneration, magic resistance, and a body as strong as that of a Black Iron Professional warrior.
Most ogre mages are leaders of large tribes, Governing ordinary ogres, half-ogres, and subordinate monsters, Their lairs are usually located in fortresses or underground, holding vast wealth.
If he could kill an ogre mage, One could imagine he would gain unimaginably great wealth.
Unfortunately, he could not kill it...
Now, facing a formidable level 8 monster, even if the opponent did not use any casting abilities, but only engaged him in a physical confrontation, his seemingly stronger-than-average human physique would likely be nothing more than a fragile sheet of paper before it.
Moreover, he also doubted that even if the ogre mage stood still without attacking, his magic could not penetrate its magic resistance.
"No wonder they launched the winter expedition, to clear the monsters in advance."
Gauss also realized why they needed to take the initiative when winter arrived.
If such a powerful ogre mage launched a large-scale attack on human-inhabited lands, even if they ultimately won, the number of human casualties would not be small.
Furthermore, it is fortunate that most demons and low-level monsters inhabit scattered places, Gathering requires a significant amount of time and creates substantial noise, providing the adventurer’s guild with an opportunity for early reconnaissance.
"What level is President Abelhard?" Gauss couldn’t help but feel curious.
"When I participated in the winter expedition a year ago, I heard people say he seemed to be a level 9 Demon Swordsman..."
"Is the information that detailed?" Gauss was a little surprised, not only the profession level but the profession too?
"Yes, for someone as famous as the president, detailed information about him is inevitable." Aaliyah said with a tone of envy; no one doesn’t wish to be a famous professional, herself included. "His fame isn’t just local, even in the forest capital, Barry, he’s well-known."
Gauss listened silently.
He felt somewhat surprised.
Originally, he thought Gray Rock Town and the surrounding towns were not very different.
But now, seeing Aaliyah’s tone, their president Abelhard’s strength seemed somewhat extraordinary.
And it’s clear from the level, a level 9 special profession.
According to Gauss’s knowledge, to become the president of a town-level adventurer’s guild, one must first be a Black Iron Level adventurer, which means possessing a master-stage profession level between levels 6-10, and then go to the provincial capital for an assessment. After passing, they would be assigned to the corresponding branch.
Level 9 in Black Iron adventurers is undoubtedly quite high.
"Perhaps in a few years, he might reach level 10 and prepare to sprint for the extraordinary stage. Once he becomes an extraordinary professional, he would be a prominent figure in the kingdom."
Extraordinary, at level 11 in profession level.
If level 1-5 adventurers are just starting on a career path, gaining some fame within a township while tackling enemies that might threaten human settlements.
Then level 6-10 master-stage adventurers begin to become significant, often dealing with cross-township crises that threaten cities.
Level 11-15 extraordinary-stage adventurers reach a realm that most ordinary professionals can’t touch in their lifetime. Their skills are outstanding, facing calamities threatening provinces and beyond.
It’s the same reasoning for this winter expedition.
If not handled properly, allowing an ogre mage to lead an army of subordinate races in a large-scale invasion could become a crisis threatening several towns.
"Let’s set off for the next location."
After finishing their rest, Gauss, having confirmed with Aaliyah.
Didn’t take too much time before Raven Aik took off on the spot, beginning to guide them toward the next monster gathering point.
Gauss was unaware of what other teams relied on for intelligence gathering, but Aik’s efficiency was indeed high.
It also made him feel fortunate.
Luckily, before setting off, Aaliyah successfully contracted such a flying creature, Otherwise, relying on the efficiency of the two of them, most of the day would have to be spent searching.
Amidst the shade between the trees and the continuous sound of insects,
Along the way, encountering several monsters, Gauss dealt with them casually, without taking much time.
