Chapter 6: The Slime's Whereabouts
Lionheart.
In mid-air, a figure like a blazing sun swept across the sky. The majesty and breathtaking majesty it exudes attract the attention of everyone along the way.
"Look! It's the city lord Allen. β
"It is worthy of a weak human body, but he has become a legendary warrior who is not inferior to the orc warriors. Sure enough, it should not be underestimated. β
It was the whisper of an orc shaman whose whole body melted into black robes.
"Ah~. Lord Allen is so handsome. β
All right. This is a half-orc who is obviously a muscular strong man, but puts on a girlish expression and screams.
"Did the slime disappear because Lord Allen made a move?"
Vomit~. It's this uncovered orc with a deer's head on his face full of regret. Don't talk about it.
On the other side, our ruler of Lionheart City, the legendary human warrior and the famous city lord Lord Allen, flew all the way to the battlefield where Merlin was located.
"Merlin. What happened? I sensed a powerful wave of magic. Did you activate the forbidden spell? β
Why don't you say that people are legends? After the city lord Alan arrived, he directly ignored it, and at this time, Merlin crossed his hands on his waist to reveal the posture of snow-white cheeks, and asked the key with a calm face.
"Oh. It's Ada. I cast the forbidden spell. Now the problem is solved. β
Obviously for Merlin. The calm attitude of the old friend who turned a blind eye was far more lethal than the four people in the squad with strange eyes. Rao has lived a long time, but Merlin still can't help but blush. He hurriedly snatched the rag from Matt's body and covered it.
Matt: "???!!!γγγ β
Alan still didn't look at his old friend's embarrassment, but turned his head to look at the portal not far in front of him.
I saw that a lump of slimes that had been dismissed by Zheng Ming and scattered away rushed to the portal and took the initiative to plunge into the bottomless portal.
Allen: "This is a forbidden portal?" What the hell is going on? β
Regarding Allen's question, Merlin, who finally snatched the rags from the hands of Matt, who would not let go, barely covered the vital point, and opened his mouth to explain.
Merlin: "Oh. I found the culprit of the Blue Calamity. A mouthed monster with intelligence. As I expected, I threw it into the portal and solved the disaster. β
Allen: "I see. Is there a monster boss with intelligence? Then I won't ask why I don't grasp the problem of research. I trust your judgment. Now the question is, do you know where this portal leads? β
Merlin: "If nothing else, it should be the forbidden area of life that leads to the far east." β
Allen: "You mean the Forest of Calamity?" Confused! Fast. Close the portal. What if the monsters there got here through the portal? β
Merlin: "Don't worry. If it's too powerful, the beast will burst the portal. And I'm connected to the periphery of the Calamity Forest. β
Allen: "That's dangerous, too. Who knows if there will be a magical beast with spatial attribute talent that will invade here through coordinates. β
Merlin glanced at the four-person squad on the side, and continued after casting a simple soundproofing.
Merlin: "Relax. Even if an accident really attracts demonic beasts, aren't there still those so-called superior clans who regard our clan as a forbidden one? The top priority is to strengthen the portal to solve this slime plague. The city has been paralyzed for three days. If it goes on like this, the losses will be too heavy. Don't forget, it won't be long before the day of the offering. β
Thinking that the day of the lion clan's ancestor worship is indeed approaching, the amount of the offering has not yet been completed. Alan sighed lightly and turned to leave.
Alan: "Ugh~. Never mind. I'm sure you're measured. It's just that if an accident happens, it will be a pain for the residents of Lionheart. β
Hearing Allen's words as he was leaving, Merlin snorted lightly and whispered alone, "I only know the residents of Lionheart." What about my people? Compared with our clan who were raised, what is a Warcraft Tribulation? It is naΓ―ve to want all ethnic groups to coexist peacefully on an equal footing. I think you're used to being enslaved! Believing such a clumsy lie. Where is there such a thing as equality in this world? β
Thinking of this, Merlin sighed again, and looked at Matt on the side after the soundproofing.
Merlin: "What's your name, young man?" β
Matt looked around and pointed to himself, and when he saw Merlin's caring eyes, he hurriedly said, "Oh. My name is Matt, my lord. β
Merlin: "Okay. Although it looks silly and stupid. But I won't break my word. Let's go back and tidy up your appearance and see what kind of appearance you have become now? Go to the City Lord's Mansion to find me in two days. If the qualifications are acceptable, it is not impossible to accept you as an apprentice. β
Facing Merlin, who obviously snatched his last fig leaf but was unconscious, Matt was not dissatisfied at this time. Become an apprentice to Archmage Merlin? The sudden happiness made Matt a little dizzy. Although the other party is known for promoting his juniors and being close and easy-going, Matt still didn't expect things to go so smoothly.
Glancing at Matt, who seemed to faint happily at any moment, Merlin shook his head, sighed softly, and turned to leave.
Although he was quite dissatisfied with the other party's sleek and slippery beard, he could have such an achievement at a young age, and it should be regarded as a beautiful jade that could be carved. You must know that being recognized by two orcs as a human race and forming an adventure team is very revealing in itself. What's more, the other party is a Terran! A mage of the same clan as Merlin, of course, he has to pull as much as he can.
"People have to bow their heads under the eaves. But if you keep your head down for too long, your back will bend! β
Merlin, who flew high into the air with his wind control technique, thought of Matt's almost flattering posture and the poor situation of the race, and his heart was a little heavier.
β¦β¦
Saiya: "Wow. It's developed. Archmage Merlin! Archmage Merlin's apprentice! Matt, don't forget me when you're developed in the future. β
Matt: "Where, where. Archmage Merlin just said it was possible. It's not like you haven't been an apprentice yet. β
Glay: "I just can't get used to your human hypocrisy. Isn't it a sure thing to become an apprentice based on your skills? Can you find a younger and more powerful mage in Lionheart than you? β
Liufeng: "Glay is right. It is estimated that there will be no risk for a while after becoming an apprentice. As the day of ancestor worship is approaching, I will also return to the clan to receive the teachings of my ancestors. We'll have a chance to venture out in a group in the future. β
Glay: "Oh, I forgot if you didn't say so. After the ancestor worship, I won't be able to come out for a while. In fact, my father has always asked me to go back to teach me the family's martial arts. β
Saiyan: "... Is this going to be separated? β
Matt: "There is no feast in the world. During this period of adventure, it was a great pleasure to get along with the two of them. If you are going to come back and continue your adventures, Saiyan and I will always welcome you. β
Glei: "Haha. It's as if we're going to separate now. Let's go back to our accommodation and change our clothes. β
Liufeng also showed a rare smile and said, "That's what I said." β
So the four members of the adventure team left together with a smile. At this time, they didn't know that in the future, their four-person team of adventurers would also become a strong man like Archmage Merlin, let alone that a few years later, they would be called a symbol of the harmonious coexistence of the human race and the orc race, and their ideas would be admired and followed by countless people.
On the other side of the conversation, Zheng Ming, who was kicked into the portal like a ball by Merlin, fell from mid-air after a dizzying space.
"Poof."
Zheng Ming, who fell from the portal hanging high in the sky, plunged headlong into the bottomless turquoise lake below.
Zheng Ming, who realized that he had fallen into the water, wanted to sacrifice a dog planing style according to the memory habits of his previous life without thinking. But how can it succeed without hands and feet?
It wasn't until it sank deeper and deeper and the water pressure became bigger and bigger that Zheng Ming realized his problem and hurriedly shouted. Fortunately, he doesn't rely on his vocal cords and mouth to pronounce now, otherwise the mere act of shouting underwater would be no different from looking for death.
"I can't swim anymore? Help me. I'm going to die. I don't want to die. I don't want to drown. It is said that if you drown, you will die ugly. Help me. β
If Master Merlin heard Zheng Ming's cry for help before he died, he would definitely roll his eyes and secretly exclaim that this monster was not saved.
I saw that Zheng Ming, who was dying and did not forget to think about his posthumous appearance, his voice became weaker and weaker, and his movements of violent struggle began to gradually become lighter. As Zheng Ming continued to sink to the bottom of the lake, his consciousness began to blur.
