The starlight came so suddenly that neither the woman nor the dwarf reacted immediately.

And when the two of them reacted and wanted to avoid looking.

The starlight turned into the blade of a cross sword, piercing directly into the woman's eyebrows.

The woman slowly fell to the ground with a face full of disbelief.

With a sword in one hand, El fell from mid-air, quickly closing the distance between him and the elves.

At this moment, the dwarf looked at the woman who had fallen to the ground, no longer breathing, and was drenched in cold sweat.

He considered himself to be among the best among women.

If El's 'Swift Star' just now was a stab at him, the dwarf was confident and didn't think he could dodge it.

Taking a deep breath, the elf tossed aside the garment he was carrying on the dagger.

Then he looked at Al who was shirtless and holding a sword in one hand.

"Even though I put on a piece of clothing, it's worth it to be able to deal with an enemy. ”

As the words fell, Al stood still, just looking at the dwarf faintly, as if he was holding a wisdom bead.

Unlike Al, the dwarf doesn't have much of a change in expression on his face, though.

But in fact, his back was already soaked with cold sweat, and it was clear that his heart was not as calm as it seemed.

"You actually laid a trap, and you have such a scheming, I really underestimate you. ”

Looking at the dwarf in front of him who looked like a child but had a fierce face.

Al smiled faintly: "Actually, if I face off against the two of you, I can't kill you."

But to be on the safe side, I chose to set a trap and solve one of them first.

Thankfully, as I expected, things went as I expected, and I settled one of the two of you.

In this way, I can basically win against one person. ”

With his eyes narrowed, the dwarf looked at Al and sneered, "Arrogant, anyone can say big things."

If you're really that good, then why not just fight the two of us head-on.

How can we still be chased by the two of us like a lost dog, hiding in Tibet!"

Hearing the dwarf say this, El smiled gracefully like a gentleman.

Then he spoke: "I really can't deal with you head-on with my swordsmanship alone.

However, my strength is not limited to swordsmanship. ”

As the words fell, Al's eyes froze, and he recited a spell in his mouth.

At the same time, he turned into a palm with one hand and pressed it towards the dwarf out of thin air.

I saw a trace of black smoke circulating on Al's arm.

Then, from the black smoke, four giant snakes with the thickness of arms sprang out directly, entangled and bitten towards the dwarf.

Seeing such an unusual sight, the dwarf ghost's voice trembled and shouted, "Wizard!

shouted, the dwarf didn't say a word, and turned around and fled towards the forest.

He finally understood why Al had led the two of them to the Torch Forest.

And it's not just because Al is going to set a trap here.

All the more because, only in the woods, Al can not worry about being seen performing witchcraft.

Only in this torch forest, where transcendent creatures are hidden, can traces of witchcraft be hidden!

It's just that it's too late to figure it out now.

Four giant serpents emerged completely from the black smoke that filled El's arm.

And hissed, swam at high speed on the ground, and flew towards the dwarf.

In the forest, fallen leaves, rocks, and decaying trees can be seen everywhere on the ground.

So for humans, the forest is not the best speed.

But for animals, especially snakes, it doesn't have any effect.

What's more, the giant serpent summoned by El with sorcery is far faster than ordinary species.

When the dwarf ghost rushed out more than thirty meters, the four giant snakes caught up with the dwarf one after another.

and entangled the dwarf ghost directly, and couldn't wait to open his mouth to him.

Blood splattered, and the screams of the dwarves came to an abrupt end as soon as they appeared.

Because his head had been bitten in the mouth by one of the giant snakes, and he twisted it and swallowed it in his stomach.

As for the other giant snakes, they also attacked the arms and thighs of the dwarf ghosts.

Al frowned, looking at the dwarf who was no longer in shape, and forcibly resisted the idea of dispelling the witchcraft.

After all, the dwarf was killed by a serpent he summoned with sorcery.

If the corpse is placed here like this, it will inevitably leave some traces.

Therefore, the best way to deal with it is to let these giant snakes divide and devour the dwarves.

After about two or three minutes, the four giant snakes ate the dwarf completely.

Seeing this, Al snapped his fingers, and the four giant snakes directly turned into black smoke and dissipated without a trace.

As for the ground, only the remains of some clothing remained, and some bloodstains.

Al thought for a moment, found some dry branches, and lit a campfire on the blood and wreckage.

As the sun set and the bonfire was gradually extinguished, Al breathed a sigh of relief and turned away.

Stuffed the shirt that had been stained with a lot of dirt and a gaping hole into the backpack hidden in the canopy.

Then Al found out the clothes he was wearing when he came to Far Mountain City, and changed them directly.

With that done, Al turned around and prepared to leave the Torch Forest before it got dark.

However, just then, Al suddenly heard a slight sound of a tree branch breaking.

And, the source of the sound, right behind him!

Almost immediately, the cross sword in Al's hand stabbed straight behind him.

Silver light flickered, and the crosssword stabbed backwards with a roar.

At the same time, a beast-like cry of pain came from behind Al.

Immediately after, there was a panicked roar, and the sound of dead branches and fallen leaves on the ground being trampled.

And the sound is getting farther and farther away, and it is clear that the unknown creature that had approached the El from behind is fleeing backwards.

Al looked at the shadows that were fading away in the direction behind him.

There was no sadness or joy on his face, no expression.

After a moment's thought, Al took out a large cloak from his backpack and draped it over his body.

Then El took the crosssword and chased straight after the shadow that had disappeared from time to time.

If it's just a beast, it doesn't matter.

But if that shadow is someone who imitates the beast, that's definitely not good.

What Al is doing today cannot be seen by anyone.

So after thinking about it, Al still followed the shadow and chased after it closely.

The cloak on Al's body is one of the equipment of the hunters in Linshan Town.

Its color and material make it a certain concealment effect after wearing the cloak.

It can be regarded as a preliminary camouflage technique, and it is deeply loved by the hunters of Linshan City.

Therefore, as the best of the young hunters in Linshan City, El naturally had such a cloak.

Now, it's just in handy!

El walks through the forest, and his years as a hunter have made him walk on the ground.

However, even so, at most, he will not be distanced by the shadow in front of him.

After tracking for a while, it was completely dark.

Finally, Al saw the shadow rush into the hollow of the trunk of a giant tree of immense size.

And in the hole of the tree, there is a faint glimmer of fire, constantly swaying,

Just as Al pondered whether he should go in or leave.

In the hollow of the tree, there was a relatively deep voice.

"Sir, my pet has disturbed you, and you have wounded him by a sword, so how about leaving it at that?"

As the voice fell, a man in a black cloak and a monkey mask on his face stepped out of the hollow in the tree.

And on his shoulder, there was a small monkey the size of a fist, licking his bloody arm.

Although there was a big difference in size, Al could clearly tell that the small monkey was the shadow just now.

Al tugged at the hood of his cloak, hiding his face in the shadows.

At the same time, he looked at the man wearing the monkey mask and slowly opened his mouth.

"Your Excellency...... Isn't it a wizard's apprentice?"

Al's inquiry was not untargeted, but because he clearly felt the spiritual power faintly emanating from the other party's body.

It is clear that the other party is not as indifferent as it appears.

Instead, he has been vigilant about Al, and once there is a change, his mental power will be mobilized immediately.

Hearing Al's words, the other party hesitated slightly, and then said, "This gentleman, could it be that you are too?"

It was clear that the other party was confirming his identity, confirming Al's identity and attitude.

After all, this is in the Holy Sword Empire, a country where wizards cross the street and everyone shouts and beats!

Listening to the other party's words, Al thought about it, and then slightly exuded a part of his spiritual power.

Feeling his mental power, the monkey-faced masked man finally relaxed a little.

Then, he said, "It's the same kind, so I apologize again for my pet for offending you." ”

As he spoke, the man in the monkey-faced mask bowed slightly to Al.

Seeing that the other party expressed his position again, Al also nodded slightly and said, "I didn't suffer a loss, it's nothing."

Since you have apologized twice, I naturally will not grasp this matter and say more.

In that case, I will leave without disturbing Your Excellency. ”

The monkey-faced masked man listened to Al leaving, his face slightly stunned.

Then he said with some surprise: "This gentleman, didn't you come to the Torch Forest to attend the wizards' gathering?"

This time, it was Al's turn to be a little surprised.

Naturally, he didn't know what the so-called wizards' assembly was.

So, he was slightly stunned, shook his head slightly, and said, "I'm sorry, I don't know of any wizard gatherings.

I've only recently become a wizard apprentice, and I don't know much about that.

Truth be told, you're the first person I've ever seen since I became a wizard's apprentice.

I came to this Torch Forest by chance, not to attend some wizards' gathering. ”

When the man in the monkey mask heard this, he nodded, indicating that he understood.

Immediately, he asked Al, somewhat uncertainly, "So, this gentleman, do you have any thoughts of attending the wizards' gathering?"
