"Ahem"

Merlin floated in the water for several hours, taking a few sips of water, albeit protected by spells.

"It's a pity that I drifted so far, and I don't know where I'm now."

Merlin had no choice but to follow the river upstream.

The place he was going to was called the Blue Mountains.

The Azure Mountains are the largest, tallest, and longest mountain range in the Sapphire Forest.

It is rich in various veins of magic crystals, the most famous of which is the sapphire crystal crystal.

It is a magic crystal that strengthens the staff and increases the staff's ability to cast spells.

This magic crystal is highly sought after by mages and is in short supply!

It is precisely because of the existence of the Sapphire Crystal that the bounty hunters of the Ivory Peninsula have entered the Sapphire Forest one after another, just for the Sapphire Crystal.

However, opportunities always come with dangers, not to mention that second-order and third-order demonic beasts abound on the periphery of the Sapphire Forest.

And on the Azure Mountain Range, the fourth-order demonic beasts comparable to the magic master are not very rare, and as far as Merlin knows, there are only three magic masters in Rhine City.

Of course, Merlin, a first-order mage, ran over to the Azure Mountain Range, where the third-order and fourth-order demonic beasts gathered, was not sent to death.

Actually, no, as the strongest mage in Rhine City, the Rhine mage must not lack sapphire magic crystals.

He had said before Merlin was leaving that it was a trial, and had given him a spatial teleportation scroll to use if he encountered an unavoidable crisis.

Merlin wants to try, if he gains enough, he can even make a lot of money, and he can save up the money to find Dragon Island.

"Huh?" The forest leaves in front of him rolled, and from time to time there was the sound of spell spells and the roar of demonic beasts.

"Isabel, be careful with the location of the monster and add a shield to me," a man's roar rang out.

Merlin caught up quickly, he didn't plan to help, after all, he was a first-order rookie mage, but watching the show was human instinct~

As he got closer, he quickly climbed a tall tree, summoned a true eye, and carefully observed the group.

It appears to be a five-man bounty hunter hunting a red-bellied green dragon.

This is a magical beast that resembles a crocodile, but has a back armor and a lava texture on its abdomen, its blood can be used as alchemy circle materials, magic crystals can increase the power of fire elemental spells, skin can be used as enchanted leather armor, and meat can also be eaten.

There are treasures all over the body, and it is normal for bounty hunters to use them as prey.

At this time, two stout men wearing leather armor and holding large swords were attracting the attention of the monster, and one of them kept asking the girl behind him to add a shield to him.

The girl should be "Isabel", and she looks like a light elemental mage.

Next to the girl is a fire elemental mage, as if she is preparing to cast a high-level spell, and has been chanting spells to build a magic circle.

Behind the monster is a magic archer, constantly attacking the belly of the red-bellied green dragon.

"Two demon swordsmen, one third-order and one second-order, fire element mages and demon archers are both second-order, except for the light element mage, who is the same as me, everyone else's strength is stronger than me." Merlin continued to watch the play.

"However, the classes of the Demon Swordsman and the Demon Archer are a bit different from what I imagined," Merlin remembered what he had read about the characteristics of these two classes in the library.

The Demon Swordsman also uses the magic element, but does not release spells, but uses it to strengthen the body, using the elements to build a circle on the body for "enchantment" enhancement, and the weapons used are also "enchanted" for enhancement.

The Demon Swordsman is more like the body of a fantasy novel.

The same goes for the Magic Archer, but instead of strengthening the body, he builds a magic bow and releases a spell that is a magic arrow.

Merlin felt like a sword cultivator in a novel.

It is said that there are legendary mages who believe that all non-mage professions are variants of mages, and shouting that mages are the big brothers.

And then...... This legendary mage was beaten to death by the legends of other classes.

The howl of the red-bellied green dragon became smaller and smaller, and when Merlin saw this, he was ready to rub a wave of experience and mix his face.

Merlin stood on the tree and took out his staff, chanting incantations to build a circle.

Oliver kept blocking the attacks of the demonic beasts, and felt the red-bellied green dragon in front of him, which had slowly become weak, and couldn't help but be happy, and then relaxed his rhythm.

The red-bellied green dragon should know that he is going to die, and his heart is crossed, but he begins to return to the light, and a divine dragon sweeps his tail and flies Oliver, and rushes towards the weakest light elemental mage in the team with the stump.

"Oh no, Isabel, get out of the way!" Oliver quickly got up from the ground to stop it.

At this moment, Isabel was like she was scared stupid, and she didn't dare to move, and the fire elemental mage next to her had already run away.

At this moment, a black cloud suddenly appeared in the sky above the demonic beast, and the surrounding thunder elements converged at an extremely fast speed.

"Boom"

A huge bolt of lightning struck the red-bellied green dragon, hitting the nail on the head, and finally letting out a wail that ended its pitiful life.

This is Merlin's spell "Lightning Spear"

This is one of the high-level spells included in the magic book given to him by Master Rhine.

This spell is powerful enough to severely damage a third-order demonic beast, but it is still too difficult to cast a spell in Merlin's realm, and it requires the help of the Channeler's Staff and a long chanting spell to unleash it.

"Whew, it's good to catch up" Merlin saw that the monster was dead, and came down directly from the tree.

A terrified Oliver watched Merlin, dressed in a mage's robe and holding a staff, slowly approaching.

"Your Excellency Venerable Master, thank you for your help......"

Oliver was stunned before he could finish speaking, and he found that this handsome young mage seemed to be only in the first order.

Anyone on their team is better than Merlin, except for Isabel.

"Mage friend, you can pick a little bit of this red-bellied green dragon's corpse as a trophy."

Although Oliver found out that Merlin was only at the realm of a first-order mage, his attitude did not change much.

After all, a first-order mage dares to break into the Sapphire Forest alone, either he is brain-dead or has a backstage, and it is not easy to look at it.

What's more, the Bounty Hunters Association has a rule that whoever helps kill the Warcraft loot must also be given a share to him.

"No, it's just a matter of hands."

Merlin knew that the materials of this third-order red-bellied green dragon were precious, but the space for the magic circle where his clothes were solidified was limited.

There were a lot of magic herbs in it that I saw picked when I was on the road, and of course, the most precious thing was the lightning fruit of the Lightning Tiger family.

So I had to give up first.

"I want to ask if Your Excellency is going to go to the Blue Mountains?"

"Yes, I received news that the demonic beasts in the Azure Mountain Range have disappeared, and I plan to try my luck, brother, are you too?"

Oliver seemed unsuspecting, and said the reason with a big grin.

"Is there anything else, I've just been in for a few days, and I haven't heard anything."

"Haha, little brother, it seems that you don't know much about the outside world, this matter has gone crazy in several cities around the Sapphire Forest."

Oliver slapped his legs and laughed as if he had thought of something happy.

"Just call me Merlin, can you tell me more about it?"

Merlin expressed embarrassment, he didn't know much about the outside world except for practicing magic at home and listening to Master Rhine's lectures.

Oliver understood, and explained to Merlin why.

About a month ago, a team of bounty hunters returned to Ivory City from the Blue Mountains, and with a bigger harvest than anyone had ever done before.

This is not an isolated case, and bounty hunters and adventurers in major cities have basically gained more or less.

According to the people who came back, the fourth-order demonic beasts of the Azure Mountain Range have all disappeared!

This time it was like detonating gunpowder, and all the bounty hunters, adventurers, mage guilds, and chambers of commerce had arranged for people to go to the Azure Mountains.

It was just a week ago!
