Chapter 32 Fierce Battle
Chapter 32 Fierce Battle
"Boom."
The gray-robed man cast a spell in front of him - secondary energy fireball. In the blink of an eye, a fireball the size of a head hit the wall, the brick wall collapsed, rubble and flames splashed, and a large gap appeared on the wall.
Behind the wall, the tables and chairs were knocked all over the place, only the lights hanging higher on the wall remained on.
A painful groan was heard from inside the room, and it was obvious that the person inside had suffered considerable harm.
The gray-robed man let out a strange cry, very satisfied with his masterpiece.
He walked towards the gap created by the collision, ready to look for his prey and spoils inside the house.
As he bent down slightly to enter the gap, a sharp cold light flew over, like a white silk thread pointing directly at his body. The man in gray robe reacted particularly quickly, drawing his sword to block while moving his steps to dodge.
"Shh!"
This sword had clearly been planned for a long time, and the grey-robed man did not allow much resistance. The two swords collided, and the stabbing sword cleverly used the elastic force created by the collision. Instead of slowing down, it accurately pierced into the grey-robed man's body, inserting between his shoulder and chest.
The white-haired old man who drew the sword was none other than Old Orr from the clinic. Almost no one knew that 'Eyes of the Bat' was not only the name of the clinic, but also the name of a breathing method, an incomplete and superior breathing method that focused most on hearing, namely 'Eyes of the Bat'.
Bats are good at observing everything through their hearing.
Just now, he heard some noise outside the house.
"Ah, you're a wizard's apprentice?"
Old Orr succeeded in killing his enemy with his sword and looked at him intently. The familiar robe made him exclaim in surprise. He quickly drew his sword and took a few steps back. He knew that wizards had many strange and varied methods.
He had a deep-seated fear of wizards.
He stared at the other person warily: "Sir, what are you doing breaking into my house?"
"You are just a lowly servant, but you actually hurt me. Very good. Hehe - cough cough."
The gray-robed man slowly took out a potion and poured it into his mouth. His angry face under the hood was distorted and deformed, like a poisonous snake just out of winter under the shadow of the lamp.
Hearing this, Old Orr shuddered unconsciously. This was something he had always been reluctant to mention.
I thought that after so many years, no one knew about this unknown experience, but today a wizard apprentice came to my door, and I am afraid that I will never have peace again.
Many thoughts flashed through Old Orr's mind, and he came to his senses the next second: "Whoever you are, if you want to delay time, ask my sword if it agrees."
He held his sword horizontally and stepped forward, as fast as the wind, and stabbed at the gray-robed man again.
"Just to remind you, my sword is smeared with poison."
"Poison? What I'm least afraid of is poison."
Facing Old Orr's killing move, the gray-robed man took a step forward and responded with his sword. There was a tiny flash of lightning flickering on his sword. This was a zero-level spell - Thunder Whisker, which could draw out a small amount of lightning as thin as a hair.
"Ding!"
The two men fought against each other, and their swords collided.
The man in gray seemed to be uninjured, which made Old Orr regretful for missing the opportunity just now.
Inside the house, the two exchanged multiple moves in the blink of an eye. Both were at the knight level in strength, so it was not easy to overwhelm their opponents.
"Ekz, do you need my help?"
When the two were once again fighting with swords to see who was better, a figure came out from the gap in the wall and asked in an impatient tone.
There was actually a magical pet beside him, and Old Orr's face changed drastically.
He didn't notice that a python head had sprung out from under Ekz's bloated gray robe. The two were very close, and when Old Orr noticed it, the ferocious black python head surrounded by lightning pounced on him and bit him. Old Orr pushed his feet hard and moved his body backwards skillfully, trying to retreat and dodge.
The python's head was approaching his body, and with the power from Ekz's sword, he was knocked backwards and hit hard against the cabinet against the wall behind him, breaking the wooden board at the back and crashing into the cabinet, knocking over countless tables, chairs and decorations along the way.
“Hiss—”
Ekz's hood was lifted, revealing his terrifying true face.
This python head as thick as an arm was not another magical pet, but another head of Ekoz. It grew behind his right shoulder and was connected to the lower end of his neck. At this moment, it was making a slight hissing sound.
"Let me help you."
Seeing Old Orr struggling and moving, the little green-winged snake exhaled a breath of cold air, hitting Old Orr on the ground, causing him to suffer severe injuries again. He groaned in pain, and only the trembling body showed that he was still alive.
Ekz was not happy.
"Hey Lal, this is my prey."
His python head let out a louder hiss, as if complaining about the little green-winged snake's interference.
"Okay, I'll leave it to you." The little green-winged snake didn't mind their attitude. "I'll look for something interesting. By the way, what's the name of that wizard?"
Ekz said casually: "Mentor Wizard."
The little green-winged snake wandered around old Orr's house as if no one was around.
It took Old Orr a while to recover. He struggled to lean against the wall under the gap in the cabinet and looked at the gray-robed man. "So you came here for the things of the Mentor wizard. Unfortunately, you made a mistake. I am just a servant there. How can a wizard's treasure belong to someone like me? Ahem."
Ekz's head leaned forward like a snake, examining him more closely. "You are mistaken. We just happened to pass by Flying Fish Harbor and happened to discover your presence. We wanted to find something interesting to kill time and look for something that the Mente wizard might have left behind. It was just a passing thing."
"Interesting? That's really interesting."
Old Orr said this through gritted teeth. Even though he was sweating and extremely weak, he still looked fiercely at the enemy in front of him.
He originally thought that the wizard apprentice was specifically hunted down, but he didn't expect that others just found it interesting. Could it be that he would be an interesting toy for others all his life!
He suddenly thought of his two students, or rather his students.
It turned out that I was unconsciously influenced by the wizard. If I had known earlier, I would not have followed the bullshit principle of equivalence. I should have passed on the research of the second half of my life to those two talented students.
Never mind, it's worth it to save this life after so many years.
Ekz didn't know that he had so many thoughts, so he asked seriously, "Well, let me ask you, did you bring anything back from the Mente wizard?"
"Yes." Old Orr forced a low smile on his face, "Uh, hehe, I won't tell you."
The black python suddenly stretched out its head, stretched its trunk nearly two meters, and bit the outside of Old Orr's thigh, tearing off a ball of flesh and blood, revealing the gnarled leg bones inside, and then the python swallowed the bloody piece of meat.
Another bite.
This caused Old Orr to cry out in pain, and he lost his balance and fell to the side, falling inside the half-damaged cabinet.
"Ekz, it's boring here. There is nothing here except gold coins and medicinal herbs. This old man has so many gold coins at home." The little green-winged snake took a walk and came back, just glancing at the situation here.
"The old man said there was something else."
"Oh."
Neither the man nor the snake noticed that at the moment Old Orr fell, he took out a special sulfurized glass bottle from the compartment above the cabinet.
