Chapter 132: One versus Three

Chapter 133: One against Three

Richard sensed silently and felt three strong auras waiting for him in front.

Of course, the strong aura here refers to the auras of ordinary second-level wizard apprentices. The three auras are all above the ordinary level and have reached the upper level. One of them has reached the peak of second-level wizard apprentices.

Compared to the aura revealed by Richard after using the special effect of Rodrigo Meditation Method to conceal his breath, it is almost the same.

The three people of such strength came to intercept him, which also made Richard quite puzzled. After careful recollection, he had just returned to the school not long ago, and he had been following Celes recently, mainly studying and researching pharmacy, and he did not do anything to make enemies everywhere.

"Hehe, it really deserves to be the former freshman chief of Ignis School. It's really extraordinary that you can detect our aura in advance." Three black-robed men walked out of the bushes leisurely, looking like they were sure to defeat Richard.

The man who spoke was the black-robed man in the middle, and the one whose aura Richard sensed reached the peak of the second-level apprentice.

The three of them were wearing hoods, and the brims of the hats drooped in front of them covered most of their faces, so their specific faces could not be seen clearly. However, Richard was very sure that he did not know them through his own breath perception, and he had never even seen them before.

"If you kneel down and beg for mercy, you can suffer less." The short black-robed man on the far right added this sentence.

This made Richard instantly have a black question mark face. How confident was the other party to dare to say such a thing in front of him.

And from what the black-robed man in the middle said, the four words "New Chief" had already shown that the other party was undoubtedly besieging him, and there was absolutely no situation of finding the wrong person.

In this case, he did not need to waste any more words with them.

Richard took the first step, and a dark element shield appeared on his body. He waved the bone summoning staff and pointed it at the ground. In less than a second, three skeleton archers appeared in the huge inverted pentagram array on the ground.

Immediately, the other party began to dodge the arrows shot by the skeleton archers in a hurry, while quickly casting defensive witchcraft.

"Instant magic? No, it's silent magic!" The man in the middle opposite was surprised.

An expert can tell the quality of magic with just one move. Richard's move instantly let the three people know that they seemed to have seriously underestimated Richard's strength, because the skill of silent magic requires a very high level of control of magic.

Generally speaking, only when you reach the master level or above can you master silent magic. Many third-level wizard apprentices have not mastered this skill.

In addition, Richard cast these two magics too quickly. Lucius Redman, the black-robed man in the middle, is not a mediocre person. He has keen observation. He has noticed that Richard summoned the skeleton, a zero-level magic, in less than one second, which is very scary.

This shows that the other party's control of the zero-level magic of summoning skeletons has surpassed the master level and reached the grandmaster level.

The other two black-robed men also saw the leopard from the fact that Richard summoned three skeleton archers, and knew that this mission was absolutely difficult.

"How could Richard be so strong!" Lucius's face under the hood was quite angry!

"Hurry up and summon your contracted creatures, otherwise, we will definitely not be able to resist." The short black-robed man whispered.

The black-robed man in the middle instantly emitted a black light, which was the dark element shield. However, Richard noticed that the wooden short staff in the other party's hand flashed black light. It must be that the short staff solidified the dark element shield, so the defensive magic was instantly cast.

The short black-robed man summoned a zombie and immediately hid behind the zombie.

The last tall black-robed man, with a green whirlwind flashing on his body, began to move faster and faster, barely dodging the arrow attack.

At this time, the three people began to regret. Richard's strength was unfathomable. He didn't look like an ordinary second-level wizard apprentice at all. He seemed to be more difficult than an ordinary third-level wizard apprentice.

The task that was originally thought to be easy to accomplish turned into a life-and-death battle!

With the sound of a sharp bone flute.

At this time, Richard felt a fierce breath that was at least one level stronger than the three people, and began to approach here quickly from the swamp area on the side.

Richard smiled slightly. Things finally became a little more interesting and no longer so boring. To be honest, three second-level wizard apprentices still did not interest him.

However, now there was finally an opponent who was worth looking at.

Suddenly, a huge snake head poked out from the swamp. Its long neck was at least seven or eight meters long, and then it revealed a wide and flat body, and a pair of long and wide fleshy fins were clearly visible.

Its upper and lower jaws were relatively protruding, and its angular fangs were extremely sharp.

Richard recognized what kind of creature it was at the first sight of the other party. It was a swamp plesiosaur, and its combat power was equivalent to that of a third-level wizard apprentice.

Feeling the call of its contract object, the swamp plesiosaur came quickly. Originally, its ambush site was more than a hundred meters behind.

But as soon as the swamp plesiosaur arrived, it felt that the person it was going to deal with this time was not simple. As a creature with a much more sensitive perception than humans, it could feel the volcanic energy lurking in Richard, as well as the faint sense of natural threat.

If the plesiosaur knew that the person opposite had killed hundreds or thousands of monsters like it, it would know that its perception was really sharp.

Originally, it wanted to carefully sense the enemy before attacking, but the urging of the contract object next to it forced it to launch an attack immediately.

Feeling the huge threat from Richard, it used its innate witchcraft - surge at the beginning.

The swamp plesiosaur opened its fleshy fins that were more than ten meters long and vibrated at high speed, "whoosh whoosh!"

Suddenly, the silt and turbid black water on the surface of the swamp surged high like waves, and rushed towards Richard and his three skeleton archers layer by layer.

The silt and turbid water were like waves, making a tsunami-like roar.

As the seven or eight meters high silt rushed towards Richard like a mudslide, Richard looked calm and waved his hand. A dark element hand with a diameter of nearly three meters immediately appeared out of thin air, slashed down with a palm, and instantly split layer after layer of mudslide waves, and rushed straight towards the swamp plesiosaur.

The light of bones flashed on Richard's body, which was because he had put on a skeleton armor.

Then Richard also put a set of skeleton armor on each of the three skeleton archers, and ordered the three to continue fighting the three black-robed men.

A lion still needs to fight a rabbit with all its strength, which is a kind of caution.

Richard drew out the knight's long sword with his right hand, followed the shadow hand, and rushed straight to the plesiosaur, leaving a trail of afterimages behind him, and his speed was extremely fast.

Richard, who was already a senior knight, now had a speed that surpassed the speed of the third prince William half a year ago.

The swamp plesiosaur was a little discouraged when it saw that the surge was broken by the opponent's dark element hand, but when it saw that Richard dared to rush over, its face was happy, because it had another innate ability-a hundred cracks, which required close combat.

The swamp plesiosaur raised its long neck backwards, and in an instant, it used its pointed jaws to stab dozens of times like lightning.

Every time it hit the ground, mud would splash and form a pit several feet deep, which shows how strong its attack power was.

On the other hand, Richard's figure was like a butterfly flying through flowers, dodging the sharp jaws of the plesiosaur. The few hits that he couldn't dodge were also resisted by the skeleton armor.

The hardness of the skeleton armor was beyond the expectation of the swamp plesiosaur. Its sharp jaws could only break the bone spurs on the surface, but it was dizzy from the recoil.

Richard saw that this was a good opportunity.

Richard jumped high, aimed at the long neck of the plesiosaur, and chopped it down with a heavy sword, with the skill of high-speed vibration.

In an instant, like a hot knife cutting butter, it cut through the hard scales, extremely tough muscles and bones on the neck, and the slender neck of the plesiosaur was broken!

The incision was as smooth as a mirror. The next second, several meters of blood, like a blood fountain, shot out from the incision, pouring Richard under the white armor like a bloody killer!

As for the Level 2 peak wizard apprentice who signed a soul contract with the plesiosaur, Lucius Redman, screamed and fell to the ground as the plesiosaur died, almost dying at the same time as the plesiosaur.

Richard saw that he understood why the swamp plesiosaur, which was one level stronger, was willing to obey the orders of someone with lower strength than it. It turned out that the two parties had signed a soul contract.

Signing a soul contract means that if one of the two parties to the contract dies, both parties will die.

But there is a big advantage in signing this contract, that is, for wizard apprentices, they can use this contract to sign a contract creature that is much stronger than themselves. In other words, once this soul contract is successfully signed, it is equivalent to having an extra powerful battle pet, and the strength will increase instantly.

Therefore, in the wizard world where strength is supreme, many wizard apprentices will choose this shortcut.

The blood oath contract does not have this problem. The death of the creature in the blood oath contract will not have much impact on the wizard apprentice.

But the blood oath contract also has three major disadvantages. One is that the strength of the contract creature must be lower than that of the wizard apprentice when the contract is signed at the beginning.

In addition, it needs to be fed with blood essence regularly.

The last point is that if the strength of the contracted creature gradually exceeds that of the wizard apprentice, the blood essence it needs will increase greatly, which will definitely lead to the wizard apprentice being unable to provide it one day, and the result is that the contracted creature will defect.

Richard signed a blood oath contract, but he was confident that his strength improvement speed would steadily surpass the Soul Devouring Demon Spider.

At this time, Richard easily killed the swamp plesiosaur that was comparable to a third-level wizard apprentice, and the other two black-robed men were scared.

The will to fight was lost instantly.

This is probably what it means to capture the king first.

"Richard, stop! I request to redeem my life in accordance with the noble principle of redemption with gold! As long as you sign a contract with me, I am willing to pay a price of one thousand magic stones." The short black-robed man shouted hurriedly.

"Me too, me too, I also want to redeem my life! I know the location of the ruins of an ancient wizard, as long as you sign a contract with me, I will tell you immediately." The tall black-robed man saw his teammates give in and surrender, and he shouted immediately.

Richard smiled slightly, and just when the two thought that Richard was going to agree, the skeleton archer shot two arrows and hit the throats of the two directly, killing them on the spot.

At this time, the short black-robed man's messenger corpse bird slipped from his limp hands. It seemed that he didn't expect Richard to kill him without any hesitation, so that he didn't even have time to release the messenger corpse bird.

An exquisite sheepskin scroll also slipped from the fingers of the other tall black-robed man on his right hand. It seemed to seal a powerful witchcraft, but it was obvious that the counterattack plan failed, and it would take time to release the scroll.

"Does Richard not care why he was ambushed?"

Both of them had strong unwillingness in their eyes, and they couldn't understand why they had to ask a few questions before killing him.

Richard's behavior was simply unreasonable!

At this time, the Soul-Eating Demon Spider quickly crawled out of Richard's arms. Now the Soul-Eating Demon Spider was getting smaller and smaller, only the size of an ordinary person's palm, but the color had changed.

From the original white body, it gradually turned to crystal color, and now more than half of its body has completed this change.

It is said that when the surface color of the Soul-Eating Demon Spider changes to crystal color, it means that it has entered the mature stage.

The Soul-Eating Demon Spider now devours its soul, and Richard no longer needs to perform spiritual magic.

One after another, four extremely thin but extremely pure ownerless mental powers were fed back from the Soul Devouring Demon Spider and merged into Richard's spiritual sea, but the most important thing was the trace of pure soul energy mixed in it.

Suddenly, a tingling sensation of pleasure came one after another, instantly making Richard feel like he was floating in the air!

Since returning to the school's residence, Richard has not experienced this feeling for a long time.

From this perspective, Richard hopes that the more wizard apprentices who come to hunt him down, the better. As long as the official wizards don't take action, he is not afraid of anyone at the moment.

When the Soul Devouring Demon Spider crawled into the bodies of three second-level wizard apprentices and searched for fragments of their memories, Richard realized that he seemed to have always underestimated the Mutual Aid Association and other forces.

Although these three second-level wizard apprentices are all from the Ring of North, they quickly locked on Richard through the "fellowship" of the other world, that is, the Mutual Aid Association of the Ignis School.

This time, they took action against me because they received a reward worth 500 magic stones.

As for the client of the task, in the memory of the black-robed man who signed a soul contract with the swamp plesiosaur, it was shown that he was a third-level wizard apprentice of the Ring of North, named Joachim Frisius.

But Richard frowned, he was sure that he did not know this Joachim, and the only time he had an intersection with the Ring of North was when he killed the red-haired girl Jenna and three others.

It seems that 80% of it was because of this incident that he was targeted.

However, it has been half a year since this incident, and they are still staring at him? Could it be that this third-level wizard apprentice named Joachim Frisius is the boyfriend of the red-haired girl Jenna?

If so, it makes sense.
