Chapter 4 Revenge Raid
“Although I’m quite calm most of the time, sometimes I’ll be impulsive, because I think sometimes it’s a pity to choose the right one.”
Wang Yu squatted amidst a pool of blood formed by a pile of dead bodies, using a sharpening stone he picked up to polish his sword, all the while speaking.
And the person he was speaking to was Evia Dofen.
“In fact, the safest thing to do now is to wait until it gets dark. Most of them are dead. It’s estimated that 80% of them are lying here.”
“The most likely way to escape is to wait, wait for nightfall, and wait for them to fall into confusion.”
“We didn’t try to hide before because there were too many of them. Once they noticed we were gone, they would launch a wide-scale search.”
“Within a limited range, with so many people searching, we won’t be able to escape.”
“But now, most of them are dead here, so you can hide.” Wang Yu shrugged, pointing at the dead bodies.
“What about you?” Evia asked the person who had clearly explained all the interests involved, doing so without much expression on his face.
“As for me, Reynard was killed by that fellow known as Obi-Wan. As for me, I am a very simple person. I will take revenge and repay kindness.”
“Reynard can be said to have saved my life several times. I can’t save his life, but my anger can’t tolerate that Obi-Wan is still alive in this world. This is my persistence.”
“So, I’m going to ambush Obi-Wan now and send him to hell to accompany Reynard…”
Thinking about what Reynard had given him, this old knight of justice really didn’t have any ulterior motives.
It was Reynard who had paid for his training and teaching.
It was said that Wang Yu would have to pay him back after getting the job. But so far, Wang Yu had been able to support himself, and Reynard had never asked him for anything.
Wang Yu was friendly towards strangers, but when it came to interests, he could become cold.
But for the sincerity of the people he cared about, he was not willing to lose, nor would he lose.
With a solemn expression, Wang Yu finished sharpening his sword and slung it over his back. He stood up, stretched his muscles, and prepared to face Obi-Wan in a fight to the death.
Suddenly, he noticed that Evia did not listen to his advice and left, but still stayed aside.
Noticing that Wang Yu was looking at him, he asked Wang Yu with a strange expression. “What if we let the guild handle this?”
Wang Yu was stunned for two seconds, but he still answered Evia.
“As for the guild, we will have to report back before they can deal with the issue here. However, when the time comes, Obi-Wan, who noticed that many people have died here, will definitely notice the changes in the situation.”
“Judging from the arrangements here, he’s a cautious person after all. He’ll run away before the guild arrives… and I might very well lose the chance to kill this bastard.”
“This guy knows how to run, then… then I should stay and help you…”
Evia’s tone carried some hesitation.
It could be seen that he was still a little timid and fearful, but for some reason, he chose to stay.
“Ah, such a sincere relationship… I’m a bit envious.” Evia whispered to himself without being noticed, with a little disappointment.
“Is that so… Thank you very much. You’ve really helped me a lot.” Wang Yu was somewhat surprised, but more importantly, he was happy. A crossbowman who shot cold arrows, his help was indeed significant.
“It’s nothing. If it weren’t for you, I would definitely died in dungeon. As you said, I will definitely repay you for your kindness… That’s how it is.” Evia looked a little embarrassed. He was probably not good at talking to others from the bottom of his heart, but Wang Yu didn’t care about it. He would remember this kindness.
With the new help, Wang Yu became more confident. After getting ready, the two of them carefully headed towards the house where Obi-Wan and Mage Yegor lived.
Since it was daytime, they didn’t really engage in any stealthy operations. They just controlled the sound of their footsteps and approached the house where Obi-Wan and the mage were known to be.
……
In the room, Obi-Wan and the mage were sitting at a table.
The mage excitedly wrote something on a notebook in front of him, his face filled with an indescribable fanaticism and joy.
Beside him, Obi-Wan had a bored and displeased expression on his face.
“Knock, knock!” Obi-Wan knocked on the table.
“What’s the use of you studying this thing? Aren’t mages and wizards supposed to use magic? What’s the point of you studying this?”
“Where’s the spell you promised me that can control one’s mind? Have you achieved anything up till now? So many prisoners have gone crazy because of you!”
“Now, all I have is this spirit blast that can give people a headache and incapacitate them, but what’s the use of me having it? I can’t cast spells!”
“What I need is a spell that can control people’s minds, so that I can expand my territory!” Obi-Wan questioned the progress of the mage Yegor’s research with a dissatisfied tone.
“Boss Obi-Wan, calm down. That noble captive has the highest affinity with the void that I have ever seen. As long as I can research the spiritual structure of that captive, I will definitely become a wizard, and then…” The senior mage, Yegor, explained calmly.
However, before he could finish his sentence, Obi-Wan interrupted the chattering senior mage with anger. “I don’t care if you become a wizard or not. What I want is the result. Show me your results and I’ll help you!”
“Although that noble captive was sold by his own family and isn’t as valuable as those real nobles, it’s not something that can be found everywhere. If you don’t give me some results this time, I’ll take your life!” Senior mage Yegor maintained an unhurried attitude despite being interrupted by Obi-Wan.
Because he knew that not only was Obi-Wan seeking help from him, Obi-Wan was also have not confident that he could kill him before the senior mage could unleash his spirit blast.
Obi-Wan provided the senior mage with the material while the senior mage promised him the results. Although the senior mage seemed to be at a disadvantage, it was hard to say who would win if the two were to fight.
“I must correct your statement. Boss Obi-Wan, wizard and mage are completely different.”
“Mage relies on magic to activate elements or use magic to release direct attacks. It uses something that already exists to attack.”
“But wizards are different. They use their own minds to attract the power of the void to change the reality. mages can shoot fireballs, but wizards can directly distort fireballs into ice balls.”
“This can be said to be a completely different principle. The problem now is, what kind of person can use wizardry?”
“First of all, he must have an affinity for the void, otherwise he won’t even be able to sense the void.”
“At the same time, he must have a strong willpower. Countless wizards have been killed by the void.”
“Without a strong willpower, the initiative will only be taken away by the void in the end and twisted into disgusting and indescribable monsters. How can those pathetic guys call themselves wizards?”
“They are just pathetic and ridiculous worms, but I, a real wizard with extremely strong willpower, have no affinity with the void.”
“How is this possible? How can this be?! Since you won’t give it to me, then I will rob it, I will seize it! This is the goal of my focus on cultivating spiritual magic.”
“I must seize the soul structure of that nobleman and make his affinity with the void work for me. Let’s see who else dares to call me a useless mage… Hahahaha! Haha!”
At first, the senior mage seemed to be explaining to Obi-Wan, but the more he spoke, the more excited he became. A twisted smile appeared on his face, and he continuously let out a hoarse and unpleasant laugh.
Seeing how crazy this old man was, Obi-Wan felt an indescribable sense of disgust. Uncontrollable old thing…
If it wasn’t needed his help and the fact that he, a junior initiate knight, only had a constitution of 1.2 times that of a human body’s limit, he would definitely kill this damned senior mage.
The disgusted expression on Obi-Wan’s face twitched uncontrollably and the expression on his face grew increasingly disgusted as he stared at the old man who was laughing maniacally.
But at this moment, someone knocked on the door. The laughter of the senior mage stopped when he heard the knock and he asked Obi-Wan with dissatisfaction. “What’s wrong with your men? They have no manners? Since they dare to knock on your door at their will. Why don’t you just cut off their limbs and use them as experimental materials!”
Regardless of how disrespectful the senior mage’s tone was to him, Obi-Wan grabbed the sword on the table with an imposing expression.
The blade was unsheathed. Holding it in his hand, he carefully leaned against the door little by little.
His men would definitely not dare to knock on his door like this.
He was a cruel guy, and he was also cruel to his men.
Those who offended him might not be killed directly, but cruel torture was inevitable.
Therefore, his men were also very afraid of him. Usually, they should not knock on the door like this. At least, they should call their boss carefully in advance.
So, who on earth was outside…
Obi-Wan carefully approached the door, only to hear the mocking voice of the senior mage from behind him. “You guy? Your men are going to rebel, but you, an initiate knight, are still so cautious and afraid. I’d better give you the title of trash from mine, ha ha ha ha!”
Veins bulged on his forehead as anger burned in his chest. Obi-Wan tried his best to suppress his anger. First of all, this bastard who dared to challenge his authority outside must be skinned into a stick and roasted alive.
Lastly, once this senior mage completed the task he required, he would poison or ambush Yegor no matter what. He wanted him to die!
Getting closer to the door, just before touching it, Obi-Wan suddenly accelerated and kicked the door.
“Bang!” The door was kicked open, and the huge force made the room full of the sound of collision, and the dust was scattered everywhere with the wind of the door suddenly opening.
Without even looking, Obi-Wan thrust his sword forward with extreme speed and his movements were extremely standard. It was clear that this was a standard sword skill.
The physical quality of 1.2 times human body’s limit lead the sound of the long sword breaking through the air was extremely sharp.
“Swoosh!” The sword pierced through the air, charging towards the enemies that would appear at the door.
However, the moment he drew his sword, Obi-Wan realized that there was no one at the door. There was nothing. The person who knocked on the door was not there.
He forcibly changed his sword momentum halfway and turned from thrusting to sweeping. He and the sword turned 150 degrees in the air at an extremely fast speed and scanned the surroundings at the same time.
But still, there was nothing. In the initial blind spot of his vision, there was no sign of the enemy who should have been there.
Did he hear it wrong? This question appeared in the heart of Obi-Wan but he immediately dispelled it.
It was impossible. As an initiate knight, his physical function was several levels higher than that of a normal person. There was no such thing as auditory hallucinations when he was awake. It was absolutely impossible.
Then, there must be someone knocking on the door. But where? Wait. Suddenly, Obi-Wan thought of something and turned around at high speed, trying to turn to the only possible entrance in the room, the window.
But before he could turn around, “Bang!” The sound of glass shattering could be heard. A figure holding a shield suddenly smashed the window and rushed in.
