My Magic Age

Chapter 292 92. Brave Heart

Rita still couldn't believe that the saber-toothed tiger, which was as big as a calf, was killed by us. She had wanted to protect the magic apprentices in the team at all costs, but the blood hole on the saber-toothed tiger's ribs was still oozing blood, and the pupils of the evil tiger slowly expanded and lost focus, and in the end there was not even a trace of breath.

Darwin was completely excited. He held the alloy bow in his hand and stroked the soft fur of the saber-toothed tiger with some obsession. A complete and undamaged saber-toothed tiger fur could be sold for at least three gold in El City. Although these spoils must be handed over to the academy in the end, the academy will also purchase them at 60% of the market price. A saber-toothed tiger fur will be divided equally among the team members. At least thirty silver coins are needed. No wonder there are so many adventure groups entering the primeval forest or other planes for adventure every year. The benefits here are so great.

Darwin thought: Maybe before returning to El City, I can buy a better shield for Rita in the armor shop in Sloyt City.

Becky envied my skinning skills very much. The skinning knife turned freely in my hand and gently cut the fur of the saber-toothed tiger, just like gently lifting the veil on the face of a lover. The movement was smooth and free, and I could always easily find the gap between the skin and the tendons and peel off the tiger skin completely. Becky squatted beside me and looked at my hands without blinking, watching my every move attentively, and didn't say a word.

"When I was in the Pai Plateau, a leatherworker from the city of Sloyte taught me how to process these furs. I still remember that on the plateau, the hunted demon antelopes piled up like mountains..." I began to tell the story of the Pai Plateau. They were very curious about my experiences. When I talked about millions of unicorns merging into an ocean current and running wildly across the wilderness, they all showed a yearning look. When I talked about the lakes on the Xinghu grassland that were like bright pearls, Lagertis couldn't help but praise: "I really want to be able to walk around after graduation and see the natural beauty of Roland Continent. Maybe going to the Dwarf Kingdom is a very good idea!"

In fact, what I want to say more is: the bodies of the gray dwarf bandits hunted by our caravan at the pass of the Death Road at that time were also piled up like mountains. I also remembered the bearded uncle Fred. I wonder how he is doing in Haiyinsi now! A saber-toothed tiger was decomposed into scattered pieces of meat and a whole piece of fur under my knife.

Apart from the magic core in the brain, the only valuable parts of the saber-toothed tiger are its fur and tiger teeth. The orc shamans like to use tiger bones as medicine to treat diseases and save people, but after arriving in El City, I found that people here prefer to pray for holy water in the temple to treat various diseases, and the bones of those monsters are not very valuable.

However, the fine meat of some monsters is a delicacy on people's plates, and saber-toothed tiger meat is also among them. The warriors believe that eating some meat from powerful monsters can help increase courage and physique, so we are going to shave all the fine meat from the two saber-toothed tigers and put it in the magic waist bag. We will stay here for at least two weeks, and we must reserve some food. Such rare fresh meat is really reluctant to be discarded.

I looked at the last fat leg meat and looked at the bulging magic waist bag with some hesitation. The magic waist bag left by the alchemist was already full with only the materials and fresh meat from the two saber-toothed tigers. Fortunately, this is just a spare backpack, but my original backpack was full of magic scrolls, and there was no space for other things. If Ying Li hadn't insisted on packing all the fresh meat, I would have wanted to discard some of it.

Neither of these two saber-toothed tigers could obtain the magic core. For such low-level monsters, it would be very good if one out of ten had a magic core. I looked at the sky and remembered that Xinliu Valley, which was floating in the turbulence of time, was day and night.

We were very satisfied with the harvest of the day, and after resting, we prepared to move forward.

On the Pai Plateau, children who could hunt the lowest-level monsters before participating in the coming-of-age ceremony would be praised as brave people, even if the monster was just a magic antelope. The pride of the orcs made them ignore the benefits of working together, just like our group of seven people were able to kill two saber-toothed tigers without any danger. This matter is probably a big problem for orc children of the same age. Most of our team members are warrior apprentices and magic apprentices of level one or two. If it weren't for their sharp weapons and strong armor, it would be difficult to hunt saber-toothed tigers.

The corpses of the two saber-toothed tigers on the grass in the forest were hastily buried with rotten leaves and dead branches, and the blood was simply washed away with clean water. This clean water was formed when my "Ice Shield" failed in the water gathering stage. I found that the spell in the first third of the "Ice Shield" was clearly the entire spell of the water gathering spell, and there was a long spell behind it to form a complete "Ice Shield".

For my waste of magic power just to clean up the battlefield, even the docile Ying Li curled his lips speechlessly. Although he didn't stop me, he seemed to want to persuade me to save magic power.

There were several intermittent cries for help in the distance, which made us speed up our pace. Someone was in danger ahead.

Darwin in front jumped onto a big tree like a civet cat, and followed the sound to the dense forest ahead. Lagertis jumped lightly onto the tree and followed Darwin closely.

The people calling for help in this dense forest must be our El City expedition team. I immediately thought of the situation before the battle. Wasn't it a team that surpassed our team and entered the depths of the dense forest? It seemed that they were in danger. I noticed some movement a few hundred meters away. An expedition team was rushing to the place where the call for help came from.

Seeing that everyone was in a hurry and had no time to care about their formation in order to hurry, our team had a loophole. If a saber-toothed tiger attacked us at this time, Ying Li, who was protected in the center, might be injured. Helena had already rushed to the front. This beautiful girl with a stunning face had a sunny heart. However, in order to prevent those crazy bees and butterflies from entangled with her, she had to put on a look of keeping people away from her, and sometimes even put on a poker face, but her heart was warm after all.

"Keep the battle formation!" I ran forward and grabbed Helena's wrist, glaring at her: "You are too far forward!"

"Oh!" Although Helena pretended to be a well-behaved and pitiful little girl, the slightly upward curved lip line only bloomed suddenly when she faced me, like a gorgeous crabapple, so beautiful that I felt a little dazzled.

I said to Becky: "You are responsible for the rear, I will go to the front to open the way!"

Becky saw that I looked solemn, and had already pulled out the dagger from her arms and held it in her backhand, and held the mysterious oil lamp in the other hand. Knowing that I was serious, she nodded to me solemnly, stopped, and waited for everyone to pass by her, and then followed carefully at the end.

Darwin and Lagertis had already sent out the signal to wait for rescue in front, I did not dare to hesitate, and hurriedly ran forward along their route.

... Beautiful dividing line...

Walking through the tangled weeds in the dense forest, Darwin's back was torn open by a foot-long gash. The delicate leather armor was torn from behind, and the blood dripped on the weeds. It was so painful. He didn't know how deep the wound was. Darwin's heart had completely turned cold. The white-spotted saber-toothed tiger followed behind him and had caught up with him again. He swung the alloy bow back in embarrassment. Darwin's heart was filled with despair. The huge tiger claws slapped the alloy bow in his hand far away in the next moment. The bowstring of the alloy bow broke, and the sharp bowstring cut a hole in the saber-toothed tiger's claws. The saber-toothed tiger kicked hard with its two hind legs, let out a low roar, and bit Darwin's neck fiercely.

Until this moment, Darwin realized how tough the female warriors Rita, Becky, and Helena in his team were. The three of them could even withstand the attack of two saber-toothed tigers, but when he faced a saber-toothed tiger, he didn't even have a chance to escape. It ran too fast.

Darwin regretted it to the extreme. If he had listened to Lagetis's advice and waited for the team to arrive before rescuing, he might not be in danger. But seeing the miserable situation of the team, Darwin felt that he really couldn't wait for a second. He thought of his grandmother, the grandmother who liked others to call her Mrs. Joyce. Didn't she like him especially because of her kindness?

The fishy smell of the beast had already rushed into his nose. Darwin didn't look back. After the alloy bow was shot away, he had no weapons in his hands. The saber-toothed tiger pounced on him this time, and he was powerless to stop it. He didn't want to see the saber-toothed tiger open its mouth and bite his throat at the last moment, so he turned his back to the saber-toothed tiger and waited for the last moment to come.

At this moment, a fireball flew out from the opposite bushes and hit the saber-toothed tiger accurately. The fireball exploded violently, and the attack of the saber-toothed tiger was resolved by the fireball. Its body was very flexible. At the moment the fireball arrived, it twisted its body to avoid most of the damage of the fireball. It was just pushed away by the airflow of the fireball explosion, and the flames did not even burn its fur.

After Darwin escaped from the tiger's mouth, he excitedly shouted to the dense forest: "Ah! Ying Li, your fireball..."

He originally wanted to say: Ying Li, your fireball hit the wrong way!

But he found that it was not Ji Jia and Ying Li who rushed out of the dense forest, but Thomas and his team. This fire magic genius who was known as the "Molten Heart" talent really learned the magic of "Fireball" before entering Xinliu Valley.

In their team, two shield warrior apprentices rushed to the front and came to Darwin's side. One warrior held a shield and swung a one-handed axe to chop at the saber-toothed tiger lying on the ground. The saber-toothed tiger wanted to bite the axe blade, but its sharp tiger teeth actually bit through the one-handed short axe blade made of fine steel, and the entire blade was weirdly twisted. However, the saber-toothed tiger did not get any benefit. A huge wound was cut in its big mouth by the axe blade, but the one-handed axe was also abandoned.

The shield warrior apprentice following behind swung a heavy shield and hit the saber-toothed tiger's back hard. The saber-toothed tiger was hit and wailed. It fiercely turned around and tried to bite the shield warrior apprentice, but he dodged it quickly. But at this time, a white saber-toothed tiger emerged from the bushes, with several feather arrows stuck in its body. The two saber-toothed tigers joined forces to attack the warrior apprentice who held up the shield, blocking all his retreat routes.

An ice shield suddenly appeared in front of his body, blocking the attack of a saber-toothed tiger for him. The ice shield turned into ice powder and shattered.

The other saber-toothed tiger was shot by a feather arrow and then hit by the shield in the warrior's hand. After a "whimper", it turned around and tried to escape. Unexpectedly, a shield appeared on the top of the saber-toothed tiger's head again, blocking the tiger. Although the ice shield was smashed by the tiger's head, the saber-toothed tiger lost the opportunity to escape.

A girl holding an iris shield in her hand rushed up from the weeds, turning into a white light. It was the warrior's "charge" skill, which directly knocked the saber-toothed tiger into a dizzy state. Another girl with a curvy figure wearing red salamander leather armor also ran over. She jumped high and raised the sharp round shield in her hand, and fiercely chopped the edge of the round shield on the head of the immobile saber-toothed tiger.

The crisp sound of bone cracking and the wailing of the saber-toothed tiger stunned everyone around.

Her long green algae-colored hair fluttered in the air, and her slender body was exquisite and graceful, showing a graceful figure in the air. Even if she smashed the hard skull of the saber-toothed tiger with one blow, her body still flipped backwards in the air, like a koi in the water, and landed steadily beside Darwin, blocking him behind her. At this time, everyone saw the girl's appearance clearly, and she was so beautiful and refined.

At this moment, Darwin was actually moved. He knew: the figure of a girl named Becky at this moment was deeply imprinted in his heart.

Rita ignored the saber-toothed tiger lying on the grass and twitching constantly, and ran to Darwin's side, asking with concern: "Darwin, are you okay?"

Darwin blushed and shook his head, but Rita had already found that his back leather armor was completely cut by the tiger claws of the saber-toothed tiger. There were three wounds more than a foot long. Although the wounds were not too deep, they were also bloody. Rita trembled and asked Darwin to turn around. Seeing the three huge wounds, Rita, who had always shown a strong side, fell to the ground.

Darwin was seriously injured on the first day of entering Xinliu Valley!

At this time, another saber-toothed tiger had been burned by Thomas's three consecutive fireballs, and its fur was completely destroyed. It died tragically under the beating of a group of warriors.

Compared with the beating of a group of people, Becky's "leap slash" that killed with one blow was particularly eye-catching.

A young man wearing a dedicated magic robe ran to Darwin's side panting, checking Darwin's wounds, while comforting Rita, whose inner world was almost collapsing: "It's okay, Rita, this is just a minor injury. I can make him heal quickly. Don't forget, I am an apprentice of water magic, and I know water therapy!"

The rich water element with the breath of life quickly condensed in the air, turning into dots of dazzling white light, surrounding the wound on Darwin's back.

A series of crisp "Hua La La" sounds rang out, and the wound on Darwin's back magically stopped bleeding, and a layer of transparent scab formed on the wound, which obviously made Darwin's injury healed instantly.

"In the past one or two days, try not to do strenuous exercise, otherwise the wound will be torn and the healing will be slow!" The boy said to Darwin with a smile. "But I still want to say something to you, Darwin, you did a great job!"

When Darwin heard the captain Ji Jia's praise, all the pain and dangerous experiences seemed to have become a kind of honor at this moment. It was Darwin's honor, and it was also a kind of recognition. Darwin couldn't help but grin and laugh.

The soldiers of Thomas's team opened their mouths and looked at this scene with envy. Until this moment, everyone felt how happy it was to have a magic apprentice with healing skills in the auxiliary department!
