Chapter 3
"It's already been 15 days since we've entered the Great Plains of Death!"
Looking back at the carriages, Leylin could see some traces of damage on it.
"The Great Plains of Death have dangers that even normal humans or even Preparatory Knights would have trouble with!"
The marks on the carriages had been caused by a pack of plain direwolves. The very moment they had arrived, the carriages had suffered a siege.
.....
"Your carriage driving skills are quite good!" The black robed Knight looked at Leylin and spoke softly.
"Thank you for your praise!" Leylin nodded.
Leylin has always kept an eye for the situation and for greater insight , he befriended the Black robed Knight, Although he know about what is going to happen from the novel, he cannot be too sure. It's about his life after all, This Particular Black Robed guy helped Feng Meng , so there is no loss in being in his contact. He is stronger than him and there is no harm in befriending a strong person especially when things could get ugly very easily.
....
"Leylin, you're back!" A small freckled youngster forced out a smile as he greeted him.
"Yeah!" Leylin sat down and looked around before taking a piece of flatbread to gnaw on.
Leylin then explained the situation to them, although he don't like doing this, he can gain influence over them and they can be useful in the fight.
Dong! Dong!
A rhythmic pattern could be heard as the doors to the carriage opened, revealing George. In his armor and carrying his long sword, George looked like a handsome Knight. "Hey, gentleman! Ladies! Break time is here! If you need to loosen up a bit, just come outside. If you don't, then please stay inside, after all, the outside is quite dangerous….
The carriage grew restless before a few red-faced girls looked at each other in the eye and walked out of the carriage.
Leylin shrugged his shoulders before grabbing his cross blade, "Let's go!"
Leylin knew that this is the time for the showdown. Dire wolves will attack them in pack, and no one will help them until they reach minimum quota.
"A.I Chip! Initialize scanning!" Leylin thought.
Following the order, a three-dimensional scenery began to visualize within Leylin's head, showing off the vicinity of the nearby area.
Not too long after, every single nearby source of danger appeared within Leylin's mind.He was looking with vigilance because he knew the Dire Wolf will attack anytime now.
[Warning! Warning! Dangerous creatures are approaching!]
Leylin got the signal he wanted, he immediately nudged George and signal his alliance members to retreat.
*Bang* *Bang*!
A loud piercing gong sounded out, "The Lord Magus has sensed danger! All acolytes are to retreat back to the horse carriages!"
One of the black robed men's voice sounded out, thundering in all the acolytes' ears.
The acolytes who were resting on the grass were all stunned into silence, before they all swarmed into motion, fleeing crazily for the horse carriages.
"No need for hiding anymore! Let's run!" George shouted as he drew his sword.
By now, all the members of the Furze Alliance had been alerted, and were already quite a distance, and the fastest amongst them had already reached the horse carriages.
"Aaawoooooo!"
At this moment, a long and drawn out howl sounded out, filled with ruthless bloodlust.
All around, the wolf howls sounded; since the prey had discovered their stealth attack, they would just charge forth!
Soon there was pandemonium everywhere, all kids who were left behind were scared shitless, Black robed Knight jumped into fray to fight off the Dire Wolfs, Leylin urgently order prepared a barricade and secure defensive perimeter.
Leylin and George were going to join the fight now, they know they cannot retreat because there were just too many of Dire Wolfs.
"A.I Chip! Scan the battlefield and determine the most efficient method of killing!"
[Task established. Begin simulation! Begin assist mode!]
As Leylin was not going to risk his life, he just fought superficially , As time passed Dire wolfs began to die, This was Leylin first time being so close to the action, normally Black Robed Knight would have killed them soon as they appear in small numbers . Leylin suddenly felt a warm feeling started to spread around his body.
[Beep! Host body is intruded by a Mysterious energy! Does host want to expel it ]
Leylin was confused, because something like this never happened before.
"Yes, Expel it "
[Beep! Action Failed ]
" What.. " Leylin was afraid now, he didn't know what is happening, he looked towards the Magus, Thinking that they were probably doing something, ' But that should not be the case, I deliberately did every thing like in novel to avoid creating a unforseen event '
" A. I. Chip, Scan my body for changes "
[Beep! All Host stats has increased by 0.05%]
Leylin was shocked.
"A.I. Chip! Check my body's stats!"
[Beep! Leylin Farlier. Strength: 1.6, Agility: 1.7, Vitality: 1.5, Status: Healthy.]
'It looks to be the same, but if the increase is this small it will be very miniscule, now I know that this is not the Magus doing , they won't do something like this, So what's causing all this '
Leylin looked around the field and a weird feeling struck him, he can feel a Mysterious feeling leaving the dead Dire Wolfs body and entering his own. But as his distance between the body increased , the feeling become much faint.
'This' leylin was stunned, This is like the Devour Skill that Shi Yan had in God Of Slaughter. Leylin started to breathe heavily, ' I need to check my theory'
" A. I. Chip, Analyze the strange phenomenon "
[Beep! Task established. Analyzing]
Leylin fervently started to attack the Dire Wolfs, and came closer to the Dead bodies. He cannot go near the action too much because of high risk but he still tried his best to get as near as possible. Day turned into night , Leylin killed the Dire wolf with all he got . He used up all his regenerative Plants to keep killing them, after exhausting himself he went behind to use Cross bow to kill some more and collect the Mysterious energy , and at last after Dire Wolf King appeared and Lots of Kids died , One Magi Used his Powers to vaporized a huge chunk of Dire wolfs .
A huge stream of Mysterious Energy poured out but due to the distance only a stream gushed into Leylin's body. He started to feel dizzy and his head started to hurt, he knew it was backlash from getting more than his capacity.
After getting orders to clean up the place, all went to do their task, Leylin got into his carriage and invited 3 girls who were appreciative of him. He then vented his stress on them for hours and stabilized, All 3 girls had a blissful smile on their tired naked body, Seeing this Leylin had a helpless smile.
" A.I. Chip! Check my body's stats!"
[Beep! Leylin Farlier. Strength: 2.0, Agility: 1.9, Vitality: 1.8, Status: Healthy.]
' I have received a huge boost in my skills, This ability is Jackpot for me. Especially now , it can help a lot , this Mysterious energy not only increases my strength but also my overall stats, it increase all aspects of my being, maybe even my soul strength' Leylin was beyond excited thinking about it. If he can somehow control the aspects to be enhanced , he can save himself a lot of troubles a normal Magi has.
The only reason he got so much energy was due to the death of so much of the Dire wolfs together, He alone cannot kill this much of these beasts, especially the stronger ones.
Being aware that the next stop is the Death beach, Leylin spend all his leisure time to meditate and have fun with ladies. He has stopped mingling with Angelo much, since he is soon going to reach his usefulness and he needs no extra information. He still talked with him from time to time.
....
"We've finally arrived to the Death Beach!"
The sleeping Angelo opened his eyes and looked at Leylin, "We've reached our destination!"
As they neared the sea, a small town-like place appeared at the end of his line of sight.
Numerous tents of various shapes and sizes stood together, and they formed a huge camp. Surrounding them were dozens of carriages similar to the one Leylin was driving.
"Alright! Ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to the intermediate stop of our travelling destination, the Death Beach! You will all decide on your future academy here, and then return back to your respective academies with your teachers to practice magic!"
