Chapter 839: Part 2: Fleeing
From MC's perspective:
I'm not using gravity mana except to exert physical strength.
In a few steps, I walked out of the range of the explosion site. At night time, only the spell attack collision illuminates the surroundings.
I didn't dare to turn back. Until I crossed a few miles. Slowly, I escaped from the complete range of the previous spot. But not long after, I sensed the presence of wizards hiding behind the rocks.
Starting from this place, the ancient bedrock is untouched here. I didn't want to alert them. So I changed my route and started escaping decisively.
Boom!
A blazing flame ball the size of a small building hits the ground not far away from me.
The next second, the aftermath sent a powerful shock wave all around. The shock wave turned the bedrock into rubble.
Feeling the massive shock wave coming towards me.
Swoosh!
I appeared in the Gregor Mansion.
After a few seconds, a level-8 dark wizard appears on the spot.
"Hmmm!"
"Strange, I saw something moving here," He said to himself.
After checking the place, he returned to continue the fight. The shock wave destroyed the place until the power ran out.
A few minutes later,
Swoosh!
I appeared outside before continuing the fleeing.
On the other hand, no one knows the main target has already escaped from the main area. The powerful wizards are focusing on pressing their opponents.
When it comes to dealing with evil forces. Everyone forgot their previous disagreements and started pressing against the evil wizards.
An hour later,
I have crossed a few miles by walking on foot. The noise of destruction was no more. I'm hearing only faint sounds coming from a distance. This place is safe.
Now, I'm not far away from the entrance here. If I use flight ability. Then I can save time by fleeing faster.
When I'm considering the next options. My mental power picked the presence of the wizard signs again.
Seeing that, a hint of curiosity appeared in my eyes. As far as I know, everyone is feeling from the core area. And there were no other forces in that core area except the big ones.
My eyes turned cold. If my guess is right, those wizards from other forces. But I controlled my impulse in the end. It's a great time to eliminate some threats. But I don't want to use gravity magic.
High-ranking wizards can sense law power. They can easily identify the gravity magic.
Sigh!
A sigh escaped from my mouth before I continued fleeing.
A few hours later,
I reached the entrance. Thanks to the system, no one found me. The battle of high-ranking wizards also kept other forces away.
Because of this, I rarely found anyone on my way back.
I looked around and found no one was there. But I knew the nearest city was not far away. It must be on high alert. What to do?
If I want to return to the academy, the high-speed train is the best option. I stood cross-armed before contemplating.
I don't know if entering the city is good or not. If I change direction towards the east. Then it will take a day to reach another city.
Then shaking my head, I decided to find some hideout before reading some news. Once I know the situation of the cities, I can make the plan.
Then I decidedly started flying towards the east. Hereafter, I don't have to walk on. I'm flying low in the mid-air. There is only empty land, hilltops, and small creeks between the Adamont Canyon and the east city.
I can find my shelter there. After a few hours of flying, I spotted a small forest. Which means there is a small creek.
Tud!
I landed on the ground before entering the forest. There is a high chance of encountering people here.
As I started walking along the sand path, I spotted a small group sitting under a tree.
"One level-5 wizard!"
"3 level-4 wizards," I said in my heart. Looking at their attire, I confirmed they were low-level wizards involved in banditry.
"Hey, we got lone sheep here!"
The rogue wizards sitting under the tree exclaimed in a surprise.
"Ha...Ha...Ha...," Seeing that the level-5 wizard let out a joyful laugh.
"Because of the changes in the Adamont Canyon. We are getting a huge windfall," He said.
"Boss, you are right. No high-ranking wizard uses this path. Which means we found another desperate low-level wizard who wants to reach the city, " A level-4 wizard beside him commented.
4 of them stood up to confront the person.
On the other hand, my mouth curved into an arc.
"So they are targeting people," I said in my heart. A good idea comes to mind. I want to know about the recent news.
What's better than learning from their mouths? I grinned.
"Hey, what are you doing?" The level-5 wizard found something wrong. Usually, people run away in fear. But this guy is approaching them.
When he tried to probe. He found nothing. It happens only in a few cases. Either the person is a high-ranking wizard or using some treasure to cover the mana signature.
There is also the possibility of having weird magic.
Swoosh!
But before he could think of the next plan, the person appeared before him.
Seeing that all four of their pupils shrank.
"Well, I want to hear some news. Can you guys tell me?" I said with a smile before releasing coercion.
Boom!
All four of them pressed on the ground. Their faces landed flat on the ground causing head injury.
The level-5 wizard and others are horrified. They have kicked an iron plate this time. There is no chance of escape. The coercion has caused most of their bones to break.
The rogue wizards realized they had reached their end.
Seeing their panicking expression, a hint of satisfaction appeared in my eyes. I think they will answer my question obediently. I can check the internet. But I still prefer to hear from the people.
