Chapter 14: The Magician Who Gets in the Way

"Master William, I think that man is obviously here to make trouble. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Moreover, he wears a magician's badge on his chest, which seems to be a magician......"

Dodora explained.

Hearing this, William frowned and said, "I'll take a look." ”

He got out of the carriage and, accompanied by Dodora, came to the front of the convoy, and sure enough, he saw a man in the middle of the mountain road, sitting leisurely on a large rock that had been moved, blocking the way.

This is an old man dressed in ordinary clothes, just like his face, there is nothing special about his outfit.

If you had to find the most conspicuous point from the old man, it was obviously that he was wearing a magician badge on his chest.

Speaking of the magician badge, I have to start with the magic academy and magic union in the imperial capital, as well as the level of the magician.

In this world where magic and vindictive spirit coexist, the level of magicians is divided into the following levels.

Magic Apprentice, Junior Magician, Intermediate Magician, Senior Magician, Grand Magician, Magician, Magician.

Magic apprentices, strictly speaking, are not really magicians, they just take their first steps, learn some knowledge about magic, understand some theories.

And William belongs to this kind of rookie, and he is the bottom-like existence.

As for the junior magician, he can already use magic. Any junior magician, as long as they pass the examination of the Imperial Capital Magic Academy or the Magic Guild, will receive a magician badge, which symbolizes the unique honor of magicians and the same noble status as nobles.

Beginner Wizard with a one-star badge. Intermediate Magician with a two-star badge. High-level magician with a three-star badge.

Grand Magician with Half Moon Emblem.

Magician with a three-star moon badge.

The god of law, on the other hand, wears the sun emblem, symbolizing supremacy.

And the old man in front of William, the badge pattern he wore on his chest was a one-star badge, indicating his identity, junior magician!

William looked at the old man, and the old man looked at William as well.

Neither side spoke, and for a while, the atmosphere was a bit deadlocked.

"Who are you?" said the old man's wrinkled face with a smile on his brow.

"William Rest. ”

The old man's pupils shrank, and he immediately said with a smile: "The Lester family? Your people have insulted me, say, how are you going to compensate me?"

"What compensation do you want?" asked William rhetorically.

"Your life!"

The old man sneered.

Suddenly, he took three steps back, took out a short wand from behind him, and the ancient and obscure incantation was full of the dense fire elemental around him.

There was a hint of burning heat in the air.

"He's setting fireballs, dodge!"

William's face changed. He was the first to react, and hurriedly pulled a guard behind him who was still in a sluggish state, and rushed to the side.

The next moment, a basketball-sized fireball suddenly shot out, exploded where William was standing before, and the dust flew and splashed William's body.

"Damn it, find cover and get ready for battle!"

Dodora's eyes were torn, and with a "bang" he pulled out the long sword at his waist, rolled on the spot, and quickly hid behind a carriage.

All the guards are recruits who have never been on the battlefield, and usually at most they deal with some fights and brawls in the sunset town, who has ever seen such a scene, and immediately panicked, and they have found cover to hide.

Even, there was an unlucky ghost who actually ran behind a big tree not far away, but unexpectedly, the big tree was hit by the fireball technique, and it burst into flames. This unlucky ghost was also affected by the fish pond, and his whole body was on fire, and he ran out in a panic and became a live target for the old man.

William's face was gloomy as water.

He didn't protect himself for a long time, and he couldn't help him. I could only watch as the man was bombarded into a pile of charred flesh by the fireball technique.

A living life fell in front of him.

William didn't say anything. At this time, the scene is chaotic, and once he makes a sound, he will reveal his position and become the number one kill target.

He also saw that this was a long-planned assassination deliberately aimed at himself!

Whether it is the time or the choice of place, it is very perfect.

Located halfway between Wildfire Town and Sunset Town, this place is a small hill with dense trees.

Even if you can escape the hill, whether you run forward or backward, it will take you an hour or two to gallop on horseback.

An hour or two is a lot of time for an old man, enough time to kill himself more than ten times.

"Boom!"

Just as William was thinking, a fireball suddenly pierced through the dust mist and landed unmistakably on a boulder where William was hiding.

The old man's arrogant laughter was passed on: "You fools, don't you know that there is such a magic as Eagle Eye? Stand up obediently, and ask you to disarm and surrender, and I promise not to kill you. ”

"Don't kill me, I... I give up. ”

A submissive voice sounded faintly, and finally a guard believed the old man's lie and stood up. However, what awaited him was a loud fireball technique, and he was blown up to death.

"Idiot!"

Dodora cursed, and finally couldn't help it, and rushed out while the old man had just finished casting his magic and needed to chant the spell.

"I don't think you're any different from saying that someone else is stupid. ”

The old man sneered. He immediately stopped chanting the spell, and instead a magic scroll and a fireball from his body instantly unleashed, roaring towards Dodora.

Seeing this scene, Dodora's face changed greatly, and she hurriedly blocked with the long sword in her hand, and with a "bang", the long sword was shocked out of her hand, and the whole person was like a parabola, and was shocked far away.

His hands, dripping with blood and trembling uncontrollably, and his hair were half scorched, he hid again with the help of a nearby guard.

The mage itself has no strength, and his only weakness is melee combat.

But the old man had a magic scroll on his body, and he could instantly cast magic, which was a nightmare for everyone.

"Calm down, don't panic! as long as we hide, he won't dare to come near us at will, and we won't be in any danger!" William suddenly shouted.

When everyone heard this, their hearts suddenly calmed down a lot, and they shrank down, hiding more hidden.

"You think you'll be fine if you hide?

The old man laughed, and one fireball after another was unleashed, bombarding the nearby trees.

With a bang, the tree was ignited, and smoke billowed from it began to burn.

Everyone's mood suddenly sank to the bottom.

It is clear that the old man is preparing to set fire to the mountain and burn everything to death.

The temperature around him was getting higher and higher, there was the sound of burning trees and the smoke was getting thicker and thicker, and William was choked with tears and could barely see.

"Quick, pop the beer keg and get yourself wet!"

In the midst of the fire and thickness, William calmly commanded.

"Hurry up, do as Master William says. ”

Dodora appeared out of nowhere, took a black cloth full of beer water, and ventured to William.

There was a hint of gratitude in William's eyes. He didn't shirk it, took the wet cloth and tore it hard, split it in two, and gave a piece of the wet cloth to the guards who were hiding next to him.

At this time, the fire was getting bigger and bigger, but the old man did not leave.

He was still standing in place, and at some point there was a sparkling water magic shield on his body, impermeable to the wind, isolated from fire and smoke, like an eggshell, firmly protecting him.

It seems that he will leave willingly after seeing William die with his own eyes.

Seeing this scene, William sneered in his heart. He took a deep breath, hid behind a hot boulder, and asked aloud, "Who sent you to kill me?" ”

"No, you're wrong. Nothing sent me, you have offended me, and that's why I will kill you. Inside the water magic shield, the old man's arrogant laughter came, the voice was a little small, but William still heard it clearly.

Seeing that the old man's tone was very tight, William didn't ask any more.

Although the old man didn't say it, William also confidently guessed who it was, and eight or nine were not far from ten.

You must know that his father Bazado has always been diligent and loving the people in the sunset town, and rarely offends people. Even if you offend anyone, it won't come to this point.

And I am even more so, I am busy with the beer business almost all day long, and I have not had any conflicts with anyone.

There is no injustice and no hatred, then only interests remain.

And the tavern opened by his family in Wildfire Town has always been very hot, and it will definitely affect the interests of his peers.

The biggest suspect is the owner of the Twilight Tavern, Viscount Mordo.

"Who the hell are they? Don't you say yes, I've got a hundred ways to get you to speak!" said William suddenly.

When the old man heard this, he laughed, "Aren't you not burned out of your brain? ”

William sneered.

He walked directly from behind the boulder, and as he walked, he cursed in his mouth: "Who is difficult to protect himself, you can see behind you." ”

The old man was stunned for a moment. He looked at William as if he was lying, he was lying at all, he was useless and unnecessary.

Naturally, the old man looked back.

I saw a woman who was most of her body hidden in the black robe of the mage, slowly walking towards her.

She didn't cast any magic, but the fire and smoke didn't come close to her. She was obviously just walking step by step, but everywhere she passed, there were dark clouds, heavy rain poured, and the raindrops wet the flames.

She didn't have any mage badges, but the old man knew that this was a terrifying mage who could pinch herself to death at will, as simple as pinching an ant to death.

Moreover, the old man was horrified to find that his body was actually imprisoned by this female mage at some point.

She hadn't even seen how she had unleashed the imprisoned spell before she had been tricked.

The difference in strength between the two sides is too big and not a level at all.

The old man's face turned red, he wanted to struggle, he wanted to escape, but William's angry curse came from behind him, "Mahler, I want to run if I pretend to be b!"

With a bang, a burning stick slammed into the old man's head, and the old man snorted and fainted.
