Chapter 171
A squad of witcher-knights were stationed in Blue Hillock City, since it was the closest city to the Great Greenland Forest.
Based on the information provided by Bald Eagle, this squad of witcher-knights had left their posts seven days ago. They went into the Greenland Forest after hiring some local mercenaries but had yet to return.
This meant that the witcher-knight squad was already active in the forest before the adept squad had entered this world!
Mary didn’t dare delay this news. Quickly, she sent it back to the adepts’ base while at the same time she informed Greem, who was catching magical creatures deep in the forest.
Greem was leading his group of golems in the extermination of a tribe of man-eating demons when he received Mary’s alert.
There were a total of twenty-seven members in the man-eating demon tribe; twenty-two of them were adults, while five were children. With a height of 3 meters, a massive physique nearing five hundred pounds, and Strength that could easily reach 14 points, each and every adult male demon had power that could rival a pseudo-adept. Even the slightly weaker female demons were as powerful as advanced apprentices.
If a tribe like this was left to the natives to exterminate, it would probably require three hundred to five hundred well-equipped and expertly trained elite warriors to do so. Even if they succeeded in the extermination, at least half the group would die in the attempt!
Yet in the hands of an adept, such a task was extremely simple.
These were all his enemies!
It was these people that made him run from place to place, made him homeless despite having a family, and forced him to roam about lonely forests and faraway lands where nobody lived, like a lonely phantom. If it wasn’t for a kindhearted “companion” that led him to the house in the woods, he would probably have ended up being some beast’s meal within Greenland Forest.
But the calm and peaceful days didn’t last very long. The forest camp that the wandering spellcasters had created was destroyed by the witcher-knights who had tracked them down. And his companions…the companions he had been living with for half a year died underneath the swords and blades of the knights- just like that!
The knights were murderers, and the mercenaries were their accomplices!
A flame was lit in his heart as he looked upon their smiling faces. Anger, sorrow, vengeance…. these uncontrollable emotions slowly rose within him, and he had to grit his teeth to hold back his tears.
If I get the chance to escape, I will use the most cruel and most insane methods to kill all of them! One after another!
He screamed madly in his heart, but he knew that this was only a delusion.
His mood quickly changed, and despair engulfed his soul once more!
At this torturous moment, he opened his eyes wide. Lifting his head in surprise, he stared unflinchingly at a spot above the camp.
There was something odd there~
This……this was the unique elemental flux of Wind Elementium!
There was clearly nothing there in the dark sky above the rowdy camp. However, this teenager sensed the unique concentration of Wind Elementium there thanks to the elemental talent that he had awakened.
Natural concentration of Elementium? Impossible!
Just eight minutes ago, there was nothing odd there. There was no way Wind Elementium would concentrate at that spot for no reason!
The very next second, the teenager had to grit his teeth to avoid shouting out in surprise.
Three more unique concentrations of Wind Elementium had appeared in the sky, slowly circling there.
It seemed as if……as if they were searching for something!
Something was about to occur! Something was about to happen in the camp!
Hope burned in the teenager’s eyes as he silently observed the surroundings of the camp.
Soon, he made an even greater discovery.
