Advent of the Archmage Chapter 409

Link returned from the original path .

Before he reached the exit, he saw someone jump down . It was the Naga that had been hit earlier . Glancing at her companion's body, she screamed . Her small mouth opened wide, the corners almost reaching her ears and turning into a bloody gaping hole .

"Ah!!" Her voice was really sharp, like scratching a piece of glass with a knife . It made the listener regret having ears .

"Ah!" Elin cried and covered her ears . Her entire body shook; she'd completely lost the ability to cast spells .

Furious Scream

Agatha Naga Talent Battle Skill

Effect: Disrupts a Magician's spellcasting with ear-piercing screams . The success rate is extremely high .

(Note: one of the three loudest voices of Firuman . )

Link was also in pain by the Naga's voice, his features twisting . But thankfully, he didn't need to cast spells now, so it didn't affect his combat ability much . With a lunge, Link pierced the screaming Naga .

Instead of blocking, she stabbed at Link's chest, wanting to bring him down with her . If there were two Nagas and they tried this trick, it would actually cause some problems to Link . However, this tunnel was too narrow . She could only face Link alone .

With an extreme dodge, Link missed the attack by a millimeter . He unsheathed his sword, and the Naga's head flew off with a squelch .

Fighting by making both sides lose was powerful, but if there was a big difference in ability, it could end with instant death .

Once the Naga died, Link took Elin and continued running . At the tunnel opening, Link muttered, "Shield!"

Elin started casting a spell . With a whoosh, she and Link's bodies were covered in colorful light . It was a Level-6 defensive spell .

Link also took out a Yabba fire bomb . He activated it and tossed it out the tunnel . But without stopping, he rushed past the surface with the bomb .

Boom! Squinting his eyes, Link saw a Naga in a defensive pose beside the tunnel exit . She was hiding by the exit for a sneak attack but didn't expect a bomb would fly out first .

Link had a defensive spell on him and was also mentally prepared . He overlooked the wild flames and shot forward, bursting from the fire . His sword came down on the Naga's head .

The Naga didn't expect this at all . She dodged instinctively but didn't make it . With a crack, her head was gone .

Link didn't hesitate . He spun and sprinted towards the city . Two minutes later, he was before the Light Wall shield .

A ten-foot-wide opening appeared on the shield . There were a few deep footprints on the ground before it . The surrounding air contained the unique chaotic aura of the Nagas .

Link observed for a few seconds and said, "There is still some Mana left in the Light Wall opening . Elin, how long ago do you think they entered?"

"At most, one minute . " Elin was very familiar with the shield .

"They shouldn't be far . Elin, high-level Invisibility!"

As soon as he spoke, a ball of faint light appeared in the air, covering both Link and Elin . They disappeared again .

Elin's Invisibility spell didn't have any Supreme Magic Skills, but it was still useful . It could hide sounds, shadows, and smells . As long as they were 150 feet away, they wouldn't be discovered .

It was darker now, and because of the Light Wall, the inner city was even darker . Link couldn't see his hands in front of him .

However, the inside of Lirico wasn't damaged by the fighting . Most of the buildings were stone, and the roads were well-organized . The streets were smooth, and Link had good vision . He didn't have to worry about tripping .

Link followed the faint footprints and chased after them . After around 150 feet, the footprints suddenly vanished . He looked around and realized that all the marks had disappeared . The Nagas seemed to have evaporated .

"Where are they?" He couldn't figure it out .

Just as he was confused, there was a sudden pained cry . It sounded pitiful, and he could tell the person was in extreme pain .

Elin shuddered . "Over there!" she exclaimed .

Link nodded . He turned and walked towards the source of the sound . After 20 steps, another cry came from the same place . This time, the cry was even sharper . It was a female Yabba, and she was in the same place as the man .

Hearing this, Elin was in a panic . "They're killing people everywhere . Oh god, these demons… Akensser, you traitor!"

She was in a mess . However, after the second pained cry, Link actually slowed down .

"Link, hurry, hurry!" Elin was about to jump down from Link's shoulder and run herself . Her only thought was to go save them .

"Wait!" Link pressed down on Elin's shoulder . "It doesn't feel right . It's most likely a trap!"

The two cries were three seconds after one another but were from the same place . This meant that the killer wasn't moving and the situation was off . From what he'd seen before, they were hurrying into the city to do something big .

Killing two Yabbas was nothing big .

Thus, Link decided it was a trap . They used Yabba cries to disrupt Link and lure him into an encirclement . If at least five Nagas surrounded Link, it would be troublesome . He might be able to escape, but Elin would definitely die .

Thinking of this, Link still walked over to the source of the cries because it was the only clue at the moment . He was very careful .

Instead of going on the main road, he ducked into an alley .

After walking for about 100 feet, a ten-foot-high stone wall appeared before them . "Hold tight," Link whispered .

Then, he gripped the cracks in the wall and quietly climbed up . At the top, Link looked over and saw an open yard . There was a fresh bonfire in the center with two Yabbas laid next to it—one man and one woman .

They weren't dead yet; they were still struggling .

The man's hands and feet had been chopped off . He lay there, moaning . The woman's waist had been hacked, but someone had stopped her bleeding so she wouldn't die for now . Because of the endless pain, she used her arms to crawl on the ground . Every time her body moved, she would make a muffled grunt . It was shocking .

As for the Nagas, there was no sign of them .

Elin's body trembled . She wanted to help them but didn't dare disrupt Link's plan . She forced herself to stay quiet .

Link padded along the wall . After a few dozen feet, he jumped down lightly onto the second-floor balcony of a stone mansion . The view was unobstructed, and the bonfire was bright . Link crouched on the balcony and looked around .

Around ten seconds later, he saw a Naga behind a big tree . A second one was behind a carriage not far from the bonfire . A third Naga was at the door of the courtyard . He also discovered a fourth one hidden in the rose bush… Link found seven Nagas in total . They hid quietly, waiting for him to take the bait .

So tricky but it won't work .

Link continued observing . After a while, he saw faint footprints outside the courtyard . They led straight towards the city center . Instead of alerting the Nagas, he jumped off the wall and followed the footprints . A few hundred feet later, he took out a bomb . Activating it, he tossed it towards the position he'd memorized .

He couldn't save those Yabbas . They were too heavily injured . In that case, he would end the misery for them .

After tossing the bomb, Link continued forward . Four seconds later, there was a boom . The bomb went off .

Elin wiped at her tears and pursed her lips . She gripped her wand tightly, vowing inside to take revenge . She would make Akensser pay!

Torches appeared in the buildings on either side of the road . They'd been lit by the Yabbas in the city . There was no one on the street, but there were many corpses . The Naga had passed by and killed everyone they saw . They'd been extremely fast and didn't waste any time .

"What's in the city center?" Link asked softly .

"The central control for the magic net, the activation core for the Light Wall shield, the Craftsmen's Treasury, library… Our valuable items are all there . "

Link frowned . With so many targets, he couldn't decide what the Nagas wanted . He could only keep chasing .

Three minutes later, a huge castle appeared . There were countless corpses before the entrance—all Yabbas . Two Nagas stood guard .

"Where is this?" Link asked . It seemed that the Nagas had all entered the castle .

"The Craftsmen's Treasury! All the rare materials we've accumulated are kept there, as well as incomplete Mana machines," Elin explained .

Link's brows knitted . "Materials and incomplete products?"

These things couldn't produce power immediately . Why would the Nagas go in there? Was it for some rare material?

While he was wondering, footsteps sounded at the gate . Many people came out . Surprised, Link immediately retreated and hid behind a stone slab .

A few seconds later, Link saw Akensser and 20 Nagas walk out of the castle . Eight Nagas were carrying a 30-foot-tall stone statue . It was at least 20 tons . The Nagas huffed as they carried it towards a tower in the distance .

Elin didn't understand this . "That's the statue of the sage . Why are they carrying it to the control center of the magic net?"

Link found it strange too . However, he was distracted by the statue . "The material looks strange," he said . "What is it made of?" It was a bit dark, and they were far away . He couldn't see clearly .

"I'm not too sure . I think it's Black Kun rock . "

"What?" Link was shocked .

"Black Kun rock . It's the local specialty of the northern Darian Mine . It's not that valuable," Elin said .

Link knitted his brows and shook his head . "No, no . To mortals, Black Kun rock is very common, but to gods, that thing is precious . It's a huge treasure . "
