When Helena and Conrad are in a confrontation over Lothar's reward.

Lothar, the person who had caused a storm in the White Tower of Truth, was riding his horse towards Far Summer City.

The horse that Baron Charon lent him was so strong that Lothar completed two-thirds of the journey in only half the scheduled time.

At this point, the last rays of the setting sun have disappeared, and night has fallen.

Recently, the rainy season has arrived, and the sky is always filled with thick gray clouds that stretch to the horizon. There wasn't a single star in the sky, the air was wet and cold, and the night wasn't easy.

What's even more troublesome is that Lothar has missed the small villages where he stays along the way in order to save time on the road.

"Forget it, it's dangerous to travel at night, so let's find a place to rest and spend the night......" Lothar looked at the road that was blurry in the darkness and told the mount to stop.

In order to cut corners, he did not take the Kingdom Road.

The continuous spring rain made the trail in terrible condition, and Lothar didn't want to get into an accident and hurt her horse.

At this time, Lothar was still half a day's way away from Far Summer City, and if you rode a horse. The road is lined with fragmented hot spring terrain.

The steam was filling, the gurgling sound came and went, and there was a strong smell of sulfur in the air.

Lothar dismounts and lights a magic candle.

This kind of candle with firefly powder is more than 100 times brighter than ordinary candles, and it is a more convenient choice for field lighting if you have not learned lighting.

He crouched down, grabbed a handful of sand and gravel from the spring, and looked closely, and found that the dirt was rough and divided into two particles, red and black.

Lothar thought of the sulfur-smelling hot springs, and immediately judged that the place she was in was a very special and dangerous terrain in the game - the polar hot springs.

"It's no wonder that the road through this hot spring terrain is a shortcut to Yuanxia City, but there are very few people who take it. It turned out to be this reason. Lothar said. He also dispelled the idea of going to the hot springs to take a dip and eliminate the fatigue of the day.

The water in this polar hot spring has a very strange property. Although the water of the spring looks only thirty or forty degrees, it is very suitable for the human body. But as soon as you come into contact with something that contains positive energy, such as the body of a living being, the temperature will immediately rise to more than 500 degrees.

And this strange spring water does not completely evaporate into water vapor due to the extreme heat.

If a human enters this hot spring, they will immediately be scalded by the high hot spring water and turned into a thick pot of broth.

Lothar found a high clearing by the side of the road, set up a tent, tore open a water-making scroll, and boiled hot water.

"I'll eat the tomato meat sauce flavored mage dry food tonight......"

Lothar tore open the dry food wrapped in elf leaves, and just opened her mouth, she suddenly found a figure at the end of the path in the distance.

Woo-yo-woo......

The figure doesn't seem to be walking, but rather gliding.

Lothar put down the food, stood up, and quietly took the scroll of all things in her hand.

After a while, as they got closer, Lothar saw the face of the comer.

With long, tousled hair that covered half of her face, Lothar could see only a pair of eerie eyes and lips that were so pale that they were barely bloody.

The man couldn't tell his age, his upper body was normal, and he was wearing a somewhat old set of mage robes. But the lower body, there are no legs, instead of a red gelatinous sphere!

"This is the first time I've met a mage who has been transformed into a human body in the real world......" Lothar looked at the strange-looking comer, but her face showed excitement, "Moreover, it's so interesting that you actually transformed half of your body into a gel monster!" Wouldn't it be nice to transform into a handsome centaur or a flying vulture? ”

Although he said it easily, Lothar's whole body was already tense.

If you can magically transform your body, then you must have a deep attainment in the spells of the Soul School.

The school of life and soul in the three ** schools of art is divided into three categories: life, death, and spirit.

Among the life sorting spells, there are many spells that strengthen, buff, and even synthesize and transform the body.

"Your insight is good, you can actually see the origin of my body at a glance, and you don't look like a trainee mage at all." "But unfortunately, I have to ask you for something tonight." ”

"It can't be my life, right?"

"No, it's just a leg. I'm Yves, a mercenary. The Moon Scepter family paid me just enough to get me a leg from you. I won't do the extra work. ”

"Are you really honest enough to shake your employer out like this?"

"They didn't pay for confidentiality."

"I appreciate your pragmatic attitude. But unfortunately, I can't give you any part of my body. ”

"It's okay, I can do it myself."

As soon as the words fell, Yves attacked!

In an instant, the lower half of his body split into dozens of fist-sized gel balls, which sped towards Lothar.

Lothar put away the scroll and raised his hand to unleash a tricolor ray.

Half of Yves' body is a gel monster with the fire energy attribute. After this transformation, he gained the ability to absorb the energy of the flames. Any fire-type spell will not only not cause damage to him, but will also allow him to heal his injuries and strengthen himself.

Therefore, Lothar drew the scroll of all things in the fireball technique, which was completely useless.

Although the trichromatic rays contain fire energy, both lightning energy and ice energy can deal effective damage to the gel group.

Boom!

A gel ball exploded in mid-air like a pinched orange.

Droplets of gel splattered and landed on the trees beside the road, drying the trunks in an instant.

"It's ...... destructive"

A sense of crisis hung over Lothar like a dark cloud.

Yves didn't cast a spell, so Lothar couldn't judge his strength. But with the ability to transform her body alone, Lothar knew it was a tricky foe.

With Yve's strength alone, he can deal with at least one to three full-fledged mages.

Lothar knew very well that as a trainee mage, when he met a full-fledged mage, he was extremely weak, and he would lose his life if he was not careful.

This time there was no such rescue as Lady Helena's.

Everything is on your own.

Each of the opponent's gel clusters has a destructive power of 1 to 1.5 energy levels, and what is even more tricky is that these gel masses can be controlled by Yves freely, choosing any angle and timing to attack Lothar.

Boom! Boom!

Lothar's trichromatic rays burst into succession, shooting down two more clumps of gel.

"The spell-casting skills are excellent, but no matter how fast you are, you can only cast spells with one hand after all, hahaha!" Yves smirked, and the gel mass on the lower half of his body continued to split.

Densely packed, like a swarm of bees, Lothar was encircled.

Seeing this, Lothar immediately summoned a protective orb. And the activated sword was also released.

With a black sword and a white ball of light shuttling back and forth in dense red gel clusters, combined with one tricolor ray after another that pierced the night, Lothar showed his best strength to respond to the enemy's attacks.

Snort –

Despite shattering one blob of gel, Lothar was still hit in the right arm by a mass of gel.

The condensed flame energy instantly burned through Lothar's mage robes, scorching half of his arm.

The black, charred flesh clattered and shattered, and Lothar almost fainted in pain.

"Damn it...... This new experience seems too exciting......"

Lothar endured the shivering pain and turned and ran towards the polar hot springs.

In the battle just now, he had already consciously destroyed a large part of the gel mass in a specific direction, clearing a way to escape.

Lothar only has 12 mana and can cast 24 Zero Ring spells. In the crazy spell casting just now, regardless of consumption, the mana value has already bottomed out, and with the serious injury to the right arm, there is no way to cast the spell at all.

was already in a weak position, but now that he has lost most of his combat effectiveness, escaping is the only choice for Lothar.

Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, Lothar plunges like the wind into the steamy hot spring terrain.

Yves smiled and withdrew the rest of the gel.

"It's fast, and it seems that your physical fitness is far superior to that of ordinary mages. But you think you can escape me with just two legs? ”

Yves chanted the incantation, raised his hand, and sprinkled a circle of emerald magic aura gathered in his palm.

Three-ring spell, acceleration.

With the blessing of magic power, Yves's seemingly bloated gelatinous lower body also burst out with rapid power, and in the blink of an eye, it melted into the transpiring mist and chased in the direction of Lothar.

Lothar didn't bother to look back to see if Yves had caught up. As he ran, he used his only movable left hand to take out a Spirit Fruit from the dimensional pouch and stuff it into his mouth.

"Constant temperature!"

A simple word came out of her mouth, and Lothar leaped into a hot spring.

The water of the spring that had been turquoise suddenly boiled and turned a red color.

He was wrapped in a translucent energy shield, and the hot spring water had no effect on him at all.

Lothar continued to wade through the water, and took out all five bottles of weak healing potions stored in the dimensional bag, and poured them down one after the other.

There was a blur, and there was a cool feeling from the burn on the right arm, which had been charred and blackened.

The burning pain slowly subsided, replaced by a slight tingling sensation.

However, the effectiveness of the weak healing potion was always limited, and his injuries only stopped getting worse, and it would take more time and better medicine to fully recover.

Whoa......

Suddenly, there was the sound of the spring being parted behind him.

Lothar looked back and saw that the gel mass on the lower half of Yves's body had turned into a boat, floating on the water, and was rapidly approaching him.

"This gel monster's body is really easy to use, and I am a little envious...... But can I maintain my hardness after turning into a stick? If not, then this kind of sacrifice of body transformation is still a bit big. ”

Although Lothar was injured, her mind was exceptionally clear, and she even had the leisure to think about Yves's happiness in life.

He continued to run in the polar hot springs, trying to distance himself from his enemies.

At this time, the thermostatic spell on his body could still last for two minutes.
