Exploring Technology in a Wizard World-Chapter 613 - 611: Stepping In to Save Someone

Nancy had quickly rolled to her feet after being knocked to the ground.

Once up, she tasted sweetness in her throat and felt fresh blood surging forth. However, to avoid showing weakness, she furrowed her brow and forced herself to swallow the blood. She then looked warily to the side, assessing the situation clearly.

Another Black Robed Man had appeared beside the one she had intended to kill, clearly there to assist because he saw her as a formidable opponent.

Among the Black Robed Men, there were strong and weak ones. The one she had intended to kill was of the Third-level Wizard Apprentice rank, whom she could have easily subdued. The newcomer had reached the Wizard rank, and although he was a Low-level Wizard, he was able to injure her in their first confrontation.

Now, with a Third-level Wizard Apprentice and a Low-level Wizard teaming up against her, the situation was quite difficult.

But she had her own pride and would not cower.

Staring coldly at the two Black Robed Men, Nancy spoke up, "What, can’t win alone, so you called for help? Hmph, I’m not scared, if there’s one, I’ll kill one; if there’s two, I’ll kill both!"

The Black Robed Men did not reply, but exchanged looks and communicated with their eyes, ready to attack. freёnovelkiss.com

In an instant, Nancy felt a surge of energy from the newly arrived Black Robed Man, overpowering her. Gritting her teeth, she prepared to fight back, just then, she heard a familiar voice from behind, "I’ll help you!"

"Richard?" Nancy blinked in surprise but reacted quickly, "You take the one on the left, I’ll handle the one on the right." The one on the right was the newly arrived, Low-level Wizard. Although her rank was lower, she was confident she could defeat him alone. Only by defeating and killing him could she alleviate the anger caused by the ambush.

Richard responded, "Right now, there’s no time for you to show off your strength. Let me handle this, duck!"

Nancy, feeling a reluctance to cooperate but realizing the urgency of the current situation, bit her lip and quickly crouched down.

Just as she ducked, she heard a swooshing sound above her head like fine, glittering particles flying by.

The next moment, a violent explosion occurred in front of the two Black Robed Men, and the powerful force completely obliterated their bodies.

The aftermath of the explosion blew her bangs, and Nancy slowly straightened her body, looked at the remains of the two Black Robed Men, then turned to look at Richard approaching from behind, blinking and commenting, "So this is your Wizard level combat power now, huh? One full strike can kill two people; seems really strong but..."

After a brief pause, Nancy seriously added, "But one day, I’ll surpass you!"

Having resolved the conflict with Magic Salt, Richard, hearing Nancy’s suddenly ambitious statement, shrugged and said, "Sure, I look forward to that day. But for now, let’s not stay here, come with me to another place, and let’s find Narlyd."

With that, he turned and walked away.

Nancy followed, and then noticed that Heidi and Gro were also with Richard.

Glancing at Gro, Nancy inquired, "What, did you also run into trouble and get rescued by him?"

"Yes," Gro nodded, "I was severely injured. If Lord Richard had been even a little later, I might have died."

"So, you were attacked by several Black Robed Men? Or was it a Wizard-level Black Robed Man?" Nancy asked.

Ah, that... more or less," Gro vaguely responded, feeling somewhat uneasy and embarrassed but definitely not admitting that the previous Black Robed Man had the same level of cultivation as him.

Nancy, not so easily deceived, sharpened her gaze, asking, "What do you mean by ’more or less’? What exactly happened?"

"That’s when, just as Gro was about to crumble, Richard spoke up, saving him.

"Keep your voice down, there are enemies ahead," Richard said. Immediately, Nancy stopped her inquiries and followed Richard’s gaze toward the front.

There, Narlyd was surrounded by three Black Robed Men. Although they were all Apprentice Level Wizards, they were exceedingly dangerous.

In the face of danger, Narlyd showed no fear; instead, something primal within her was stirred.

Because she had brought trouble with her, she hadn’t brought her great sword that was four fingers wide when she entered the venue. Now with empty hands, her body crouched low, squinting at the three Black Robed Men surrounding her. Her body slightly arched, ready to burst into action, she resembled an angry wildcat or a nimble leopard in the forest.

The three Black Robed Men, having known of Narlyd’s prowess, hesitated to proceed and began to prepare to call for reinforcements.

The surrounded Narlyd, after seeing this, felt slightly frustrated, knowing that if she really let the Black Robed Men call for reinforcements, she would be in trouble. She pursed her lips, made up her mind, stamped her foot, and wrapped herself in air, ready to strike.

However, just as her body leaped up, the bodies of the three Black Robed Men surrounding her shook simultaneously, their necks exploded, and they "thudded" to the ground, turning into corpses.

What was this?

Narlyd was initially shocked but then realized: she had seen this way of dying before!

Yes, she had seen it. Previously, in Florence, a nagging fellow from Deep Blue Castle chased her, and he died from an exploding neck right in front of her. She remembered that this happened in a courtyard, whose owner was...

Narlyd sensed something, turned sharply, saw the approaching Richard, and exhaled, "It was you! But, you seem to have become more formidable than before. Last time, you only killed one person, but this time you instantly killed three."

Richard calmly said, "Just some minor tricks, nothing noteworthy. By the way, where’s your teacher—Master Cessi? Isn’t she with you?"

"Teacher?" Narlyd reminisced, "Just now, when that Broken Magic Ball exploded, many were injured, and she went to help. After the attack, it became chaotic, and I couldn’t find her. However, with teacher’s strength, she should be fine, right?"

"I also believe the teacher will be fine," Heidi spoke up then, running to Narlyd, taking her hand.

"Yes, I believe in teacher," Narlyd added.

Richard glanced at Heidi and Narlyd, "If she is fine, that’s the best. For now, I will take you away from here to another place, as this location is not safe. Along the way, if we happen to encounter your teacher, or someone from Jungle Hut or White Stone Tower, that would be ideal, as we could help each other. If not, it would not mean much."

"Okay," agreed Narlyd, Heidi, Nancy, and Gro, nodding in approval of Richard’s words, and prepared to follow him.

Just a few steps later, a panicked figure hurriedly flitted over. Seeing Richard, he seemed to see a family member, gasping for air, "Richard, save me, save me!"

Richard looked over and saw that it was Teddy.

"Hmm?" Richard frowned, looking at Teddy, "Teddy, you’re a Wizard, why are you so panicked? Not to mention, your disheveled appearance, you look like the most miserable here, worse than these few Wizard Apprentices."

"Huff, huff, huff..." Teddy stopped beside Richard, panting heavily, "How could I not be miserable? The guy who attacked me was extravagantly powerful. Huff, huff, huff... If I hadn’t run fast, I would have been blasted to pieces by now."

At this point, Teddy suddenly sensed something, violently turned his head towards the direction he had fled from, "Damn, that guy is actually chasing me. Huff, huff... I can’t, I have to keep running, take care of yourselves."

No sooner had he finished his last word, a Black Robed Man with a daunting presence and extremely powerful Mana fluctuations appeared, clearly at the Peak Level One Wizard stage. This caused everyone to turn pale.

The Black Robed Man, seeing Teddy, snorted coldly, "You do run fast, but can you really escape?"

After saying this, he stretched out a hand, sweeping it towards Teddy. Richard and the others were directly ignored. To him, these were merely five Wizard Apprentices, not worth a single punch; he could kill them off with ease.

However, as his body passed by Richard’s side, Richard blinked, raised his arm, and suddenly held a blood-red Short Wand in his hand, aiming at his body.
