Chapter 36: Mystic Realm Boss Valley
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Moss and Alan followed the trail of the Explosive Wolves as they moved forward.
The number of wolves was huge, and enough traces were left on the ground. There was no need to look for them.
Soon, the two of them arrived outside a valley. The valley entrance was tiny, but the space inside was vast. They could see lush and dense forests, and the two sides of the valley were tall mountain walls that were difficult to climb. This was a natural and excellent ambush spot.
Looking at the terrain of the valley, Alan was a little hesitant. After all, the landscape of this valley was dangerous, and it was very easy to be blocked by Magical Beasts.
Moss, on the other hand, was still calm. He only drew his sword and began to be vigilant, but there was not the slightest hint of panic or fear on his face.
“Moss, are we going in just like this?”
Seeing that Moss had actually walked straight into the valley, Alan could not help but hesitate. Moss, on the other hand, said with a matter-of-fact tone, “Of course, we’re going in. How can we observe the situation clearly if we don’t go in?
“Moreover, if I’m not wrong, the party responsible for raiding the boss should also be inside. With so many Explosive Wolves charging in just now, they should be under much pressure. We should be able to help a little if we go in now.”
Seeing how determined Moss was, Alan remembered what Moss had told him earlier. He gritted his teeth, drew his sword, and followed behind Moss.
They passed through the valley entrance and entered the dense forest. However, before they could go too far, a cry for help was heard.
“Help! Is there anyone nearby?”
It was a female voice calling for help. The voice seemed to be running toward them from a distance.
Moss tilted his head towards the voice source and held his sword horizontally in front of his chest. Soon, with a rustling sound in the dense forest, a short-haired girl dressed in leather armor rushed out of the bushes. Behind her were two Level-2 Explosive Wolves.
The moment the girl saw Moss and Alan, her eyes shone with a shocking light.
“Please save me. I’m being entangled by the Explosive Wolf!”
As the young girl spoke, she sped up a little. However, when she was close enough to Moss, she staggered and almost fell down.
The young girl recognized whom she regarded as her savior was the person who had awakened to become a Knight, the number one student in their grade.
He had only brought one teammate, and it seemed that his teammate was not a powerful class.
The young girl felt a little discouraged. The light of hope in her eyes disappeared in an instant.
Moss’ class was really too bad. In addition, his teammate did not look good either.
It was indeed surprising that these two could make it this far. The best possibility was that they had been carefully avoiding the Explosive Wolf along the way.
Thinking of this, the young girl wanted to cover her face. These two people might not even defeat her, so how could they be her savior?
The young girl shook her head to clear her mind. Her expression darkened, and she bit her lips lightly as if she had made a decision.
The young girl’s footsteps were light, and she used her nimble strength to forcefully change the direction in which she was fleeing, separating herself from Moss and Alan.
The girl chose to continue fleeing from the terrifying Magical Beast behind her at the critical moment instead of charging towards Moss and Alan.
The girl saw that Moss and Alan were staring at her and the Explosive Wolf behind her. She shook her head and thought to herself, “Could it be that these two are already scared silly?”
This thought only lasted for a moment. The terrifying pressure from the Explosive Wolf behind her left her with no energy to spare.
As the girl was running forward with her head lowered, she ran past Moss and Alan.
Bang! Bang!
The sound of glass shattering could be heard. Then, the footsteps behind her suddenly stopped.
The young girl felt that the Magical Beast behind her had actually stopped in its tracks. She could not help but slow down and turn around to look in confusion.
The scene stunned her.
The test tubes of the two potions on the ground behind her had already cracked open, and green smoke rolled out from them. Meanwhile, the Explosive Wolf was wrapped in the green smoke and lay weakly on the ground.
The young girl recognized that the green smoke was a powerful paralyzing potion.
Who was it? Who had saved her?
The young girl looked around and found that Alan slowly withdrew his hand. The young girl’s eyes lit up, and her feet slowly stopped.
Alan drew his sword and took two steps forward to attack the Explosive Wolves knocked down by the paralyzing potion. At this time, the young girl came back and said to him, “Thank you for saving my life. My name is Ell.”
Alan looked at Ell and nodded as a response. His hands did not stop moving, and he killed the Explosive Wolves cleanly.
This skillful action made Ell’s eyes light up. She felt as if she already knew how Moss and his companion managed to reach here.
Looking at the bottles and jars hanging all over this student’s body, it was likely that the Explosive Wolf was paralyzed repeatedly.
The girl suddenly became interested in this student who was dressed rather strangely. She could not help but ask, “May I ask your name and class?”
Alan did not think much about it and answered, “My name is Alan, and my class is Alchemist.”
Ell felt that she had heard this name before. She thought for a moment and suddenly exclaimed, “Are you the descendant of the White Deer Potion Family?”
Alan nodded to confirm Ell’s guess.
Ell looked at Alan in front of her and instantly had a massive change in impression.
Alan did not know what Ell was thinking. He was more concerned about what was happening in the valley. Seeing that Ell seemed to be fine for the time being, Alan asked, “Ell, what exactly did you encounter in this valley? Where are your teammates?”
When Alan mentioned this, Ell immediately frowned. She sighed and said, “My teammates have already left the field. We encountered the attack of the Explosive Wolf pack here. I am the only one who broke out of the encirclement.”
Alan recalled the terrifying gray flood that he had seen just now and nodded in understanding.
Under the attack of the flood of Magical Beasts, even Moss had to avoid the attack temporarily. The fate of the other teams was self-evident.
Alan did not say anything to comfort Ell. After all, this was an actual combat test. One had to take responsibility for their own life and death. Moreover, the death in this Mystic Realm was not actual death.
Alan continued to ask, “Were you guys attacking the Mystic Realm boss just now?”
Ell’s reaction became serious.
