Runemaster in the Last Days-Chapter 318: Arrangement

"Shadow creature… you can say that they're the magic beasts that mastered the power of darkness. They have special names because there are people whom you can call as lich who could control these shadow creatures to form shadow legion," Samuel explained in simple terms.

The methods to control these magic beasts were different from the flute of beasts.

Because they were controlled through their element…

It was terrifying.

To be honest, Samuel didn't like fighting with lich because they have a never ending soldiers under them. As long as the lich himself or herself didn't run out of mana, he or she could summon the soldiers again and again.

As for the lich themselves…

They usually have some defensive measure but most of these lich were quite weak personally. Only after they reached certain rank would it be possible for them to become powerful.

"Lich?" Arnold frowned.

He felt that there might be troublesome people in the future.

"Don't think too much." Samuel shook his head. "Only people who have dark element is suitable to become lich."

"…Ruben has dark element."

Everyone turned to look at Sean who pointed it out.

"It's good that you remember, but do you know how to become a lich in the first place?" Samuel asked calmly.

Sean shook his head.

Most of their techniques and knowledge came from their brother. Without their brother sharing these things to them, it was estimated that they would still be lagging far behind the others.

"Do you know, Brother?"

"Me? I'm a magic warrior, not a magician and definitely not a lich." Samuel face palmed at his younger brother's question. "Don't ask me whether I know how to become alchemist, rune master, magic weapon master, pure warrior, or lich, or many other special professions."

Because his answer would always be that he didn't know.

The others: "…"

Riya also nodded at Samuel's words.

She herself only knew the path to become rune master. Since rune master was actually a side profession, if one were to say what her main profession is, it would be most suitable to say magician.

But considering how magicians in the Green Planets were thanks to those magicians from the Magic Association…

Riya didn't want to be called magician.

She will just claim that she's a rune master.

That's enough.

"Alright, let's clean up these magic beasts first." Samuel waved his hand and said, "Divide into two groups. Sean, Stephen and Sophia will go with me while Arnold, Amelia, and Riya will go the other way."

"Huh? Are you sure about this?" Stephen saw their configuration and felt that their side had overwhelming advantage.

"Yes." Samuel nodded and looked at Riya. "What do you think?"

"It's fine," Riya replied.

She could protect Arnold and Amelia in an emergency if it was needed. Moreover, neither of these two people were weak. Arnold was already at rank 2 while Amelia only needed a bit push to reach rank 2.

Speaking of the push…

Riya looked at Amelia thoughtfully and felt that she could encourage Amelia to step forward and fight more magic beasts. She seemed to have some talent that allowed her to grow stronger in a battle.

As long as she continued to let Amelia fought opponents within her limit, she should be able to reach rank 2 quickly.

"Let's go." Samuel nodded and walked away.

Stephen looked at Samuel in confusion and trotted behind the other party. "Hey, you haven't answered my question…"

Behind them, Sean and Sophia were following. While Sean didn't think it was strange, Sophia was actually also a bit surprised.

To be honest, both Sophia and Ruby had the faint feeling that Riya is extremely strong. So strong that she seemed to be so far away from them.

But they would not talk about it directly.

It would be very uncomfortable.

Riya looked at Arnold and Amelia, who nodded and walked to the other direction of the crack. Even though Riya had been here before, she didn't memorize all of the routes so clearly.

'It seems that I have to make a map in the future.'

But making a map is not exactly her expertise.

"Rank 1 and rank 2 magic beasts, as long as they're under 3 beasts, you will be the one to fight them," Riya set up their rules. "Otherwise, I'll be the one to make a move."

"Got it." Arnold nodded.

With Riya's strength, it was indeed more cost effective for them to arrange like this. In this way, the two of them could train while also fulfilling the duties they have to do.

"Ok~!" Amelia also nodded cheerfully and then said, "If I know the crack is not hot at all, I would have long wanted to come here~."

The other two: "…"

Riya didn't pay too much attention to the temperature but after Amelia mentioned it, she realized that these tunnels were actually quite cool compared to outside. It should be around 25 degree Celsius, which was relatively normal in tropical area.

For them, this degree of temperature was nothing.

Especially after they have been tortured by the harsh temperature outside for a long period of time.

"You're only paying attention to that?" Riya asked speechlessly.

"Because too hot is uncomfortable," Amelia answered simply with a grin on her face. "Don't you think so?"

Too cold is also uncomfortable…

Riya shrugged and then looked at the front. "Two rank 1 magic beasts."

The moment Riya said this, the grin on Amelia's face and the helpless smile on Arnold's face was gone. The two of them took out their swords and then looked forward. Two magic beasts came around 20 to 30 meters away from them.

"Attack!"

Swish! Slash!

The two of them selected their respective opponent.

Arnold attacked violently, using his strong power to knock the magic beasts away while Amelia used her flexibility to kill the magic beast through aiming towards the weak points.

As for how she knew…

It was because this magic beast was included in the list they have to memorize.
