at the same time.
All the people in the palace who knew that the princess had been kidnapped were in a state of panic.
Both the guards and the servants were all in a state of panic.
Puzzle, doubt, despair, and anxiety filled the air.
Where is the princess? The princess was kidnapped by Victor!
At this point, they didn't even dare to report the news to the emperor.
Who dares to tell the emperor this?
The princess was snatched away right under their eyes. If the emperor got angry, the next second, their heads might be split!
At this point, we must find the princess before the emperor knows about it!
But how to find it? Where to find it?
That was the teleportation magic of a fourth-level mage, covering a wide area!
Victor may appear in any corner of the royal capital, even! He might have left the royal capital with the princess!
Suddenly, Aurelion's personal female guard thought of something and said quickly.
"Knight Commander Gwen! She is Victor's fiancée!"
"Maybe she knows where Victor is!"
So far, this seems to be the only way.
She put on a black cloak and said to the panicked servants.
"Don't panic yet, keep the news steady."
"What if Knight Commander Gwen doesn't even know where Victor is?"
One of the servants asked hurriedly, and a dim look flashed in the female guard's eyes.
"Then, inform Your Majesty of this matter immediately."
"Princess, nothing can happen."
.......
Delin Mansion.
Gwen stood at the door, looking at the royal guards in confusion.
She blinked, listening to the news brought by the royal escort.
Your Highness, the princess, was abducted by Victor?
What's wrong with Victor? Doesn't it feel good if he doesn't do something for a day?
"The matter is urgent. Please ask Knight Commander Gwen to set off immediately to find Victor."
Seeing the request of the guard in front of her, Gwen was also a little confused.
She had no idea where Victor would abduct the princess, so how could she find Victor?
But Gwen is also in trouble. Where can she find Victor now?
Kefla was nearby and poked Gwen's waist with her finger.
Gwen shuddered and glanced at Kefla with some resentment.
But Kefla said with a smile.
"Of course you can find Victor, he has left something for you."
"thing?"
Gwen was stunned and suddenly remembered.
Victor really left something for her.
She hurriedly took out a piece of golden parchment from her waist, which still had slight magic residue on it.
That's the magic left behind by Victor.
He asked for a batch of fine steel and left this parchment to tell her.
This parchment can find his location.
Suddenly, Gwen felt doubtful in her heart.
'What exactly does Victor want to do? '
If he wanted to kidnap the princess, why would he give himself a position in advance to find his location?
Is it an oversight?
Impossible, Victor is definitely not such a hasty person.
Kefla saw the hesitation and confusion on Gwen's face and reminded:
"Since we can find Victor, why don't we bring more people with us?"
Gwen was confused, but Kefla said as if she already knew something.
"Maybe Victor just wants others to find him on purpose?"
…
At this time, Aurelion had already traveled more than half of her journey.
While on the road, she once again encountered a monster ambush. This time, there was one more monster in the flower bush.
But Aurelion was calmer this time.
She calmly continued to release spells, attacking the monster's weaknesses. Balls of terrifying flames destroyed the monster, leaving no residue behind.
Even though the monster was dead, she was still a little scared.
It was like bungee jumping. Although there were safety measures around, the tension of approaching death again and again kept irritating her nerves.
But this time, she won't lose.
The next second, several monsters reappeared and rushed towards Aurelion.
She kept releasing spells in her hands, consuming her magic power again and again.
With Aurelion's astonishing talent, she didn't consume much magic power, and these common tree spirits were swept away by her.
Her increasing proficiency in weak point attacks makes her more comfortable in dealing with these monsters.
Aurelion panted slightly, her cheeks flushed slightly from exhaustion.
Walking to the body, she did not forget to pick up the materials like Victor did at that time.
She had been walking on this mountain road for nearly two hours.
During this period, she 'died' no less than twenty times.
Whenever death approaches, Teacher Victor's flames will spread to all monsters.
But this also means that she needs to start over.
It was as if the monster had been deliberately reintroduced. She repeated the challenge more than twenty times on this road.
She could clearly feel that her combat experience was increasing.
Countless times of magic release made her feel more and more skilled and relaxed, and even the release of second-level magic was no longer as laborious as before.
Aurelion continued to walk forward, and the woods became thicker and thicker. The sunlight gradually could not pass through the leaves and was completely blocked out.
Darkness gradually swept across the remaining mountain road ahead.
White mist rose slowly, covering the last mountain road in front of us.
Her intuition told her that there was some danger in the white mist in front of her.
It seems that once you step into it, it will be like an abyss and you can never look back.
Aurelion stretched out a hand and touched the white mist in front of her.
"..."
Nothing was out of the ordinary, but she still cheered herself up a bit, and went deep into it with some apprehension.
Walking into the white mist, almost instantly, everything in front of me became particularly cheerful.
In front of her, there was a spacious plain.
It was surrounded by dense trees, as if there was a clearing left on purpose, which looked very strange.
As soon as Aurelion walked in, the road behind her was blocked by a white mist. She was frightened and quickly backed away.
But no matter whether it was touched or slapped, this layer of white mist seemed to turn into a solid wall without any reaction.
She's trapped here.
Soon, the rustling sounds of the dense forest continued to be heard, and the ground became no longer calm.
With an astonishing tremor in the earth, a behemoth broke through the intricate underground and appeared in front of Aurelion.
Its body was covered with green leaves, vines and hair, covering its face, making it difficult to see its true appearance.
Only a pair of huge red eyes could be seen under the darkness.
"Roar--!"
A strong roar hit Aurelion's eardrums, and a damp and boring breath also entered the nasal cavity, as if strangling the vitality of her heart.
Her eyes widened, unable to believe the horror in front of her.
…
"The Forest Demon."
This is the lord-level boss at the end of Milut Trail, a type of wild boss.
The refresh time is about once a week, and there is a chance of dropping an item after death - [Devil's Heart].
A material that can be used to craft equipment.
Victor compared the health points of Aurelion and the Forest Demon.
This is a forest demon who is only level 20.
It is not very strong, but due to its boss panel, thick health and high defense, it is undoubtedly a great challenge for Aurelion at level 15.
Aurelion looked at the monster in front of her. She felt that the monster's breath was like a big drum being beaten continuously, and the heavy sound hit Aurelion's heart one after another.
Under the strong pressure from the other party, she took a few steps back.
When she touched the wall of white mist, she realized that she had no way out now.
Is this... a little too exciting?
Aurelion, who had never had any melee combat experience, could not defeat it with any means other than magic.
But...this thing.
Will she really be given the chance to use magic to attack from a distance?
The boss never gives people time to wait. In the moment Aurelion hesitated, the forest demon broke away from the countless vines and rushed towards Aurelion dragging the broken vines.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Every step it takes is like it is venting its anger against outsiders, as if it can't believe that someone actually breaks into its territory!
Just by suddenly raising his giant arm, the shadow completely covered Aurelion.
boom!
A palm fell, and Aurelion was so slow that she didn't even have time to react.
She seemed to have seen the end of her own death.
But at the moment when the forest demon was about to hit her.
The next second, a white magic circle gradually lit up from the entire forest, and the light swallowed everything.
When Aurelion opened her eyes again, she found herself standing there.
The forest demon also returned to the original starting point, entangled and trapped by heavy vines.
Aurelion looked at her intact body, but in her memory, it was as if she had died once.
She touched her neck, her head still on her neck.
There was already an extra number on the ground where she was standing.
"1".
This is a record of her failure, or...
"Did you die once...?"
Aurelion raised her head and looked at the monster again. It seemed that the monster was also wondering why it was trapped under the vines again.
But it doesn't care about this, it just needs to rush forward again and kill the fragile human in front of it. It is enough.
Aurelion finally understood that she could no longer hesitate, and she tried to start her first resistance.
She cannot use teleportation magic, but she still has ways to escape the opponent's lock.
For example, the black mist magic that Victor asked himself to learn today.
She constructed the formation with her hands. Because of her previous experiences, she became extremely skilled and very fast in constructing it this time.
The forest demon broke free from the vines again and rushed towards Aurelion.
Before it could reach Aurelion, the majestic black mist immediately enveloped the demon.
The demon screamed and began to attack the surrounding trees like crazy.
Aurelion knew it was hallucinogenic magic at work.
So, she tried to attack from the side.
Countless sparks flew towards the demon, but just by touching the demon, the sparks were extinguished under the demon's frantic attack.
I don't know if it was because of the heavy leaves or the humid air, or maybe it was the monster's huge body that made Aurelion's attack very weak.
The demon was barely harmed, but was angered again by Aurelion's attack.
She was extremely surprised that her magic had no effect at all. She froze in place with her eyes wide open, not knowing what to do.
"How can this be..."
Before he finished speaking, the demon kicked up a huge dead tree in the forest and flew towards Aurelion.
For a moment, Aurelion's vision went dark.
With the hint of death, after a white light dissipated, she and the monster returned to the starting point.
There was a green shimmer on Morino Demon's body, which was recovery magic.
Aurelion lit up with blue light, and the previously lost magic was fully restored.
Her body also recovered as before.
As if it was a sign of something, the numbers on the ground were added one more time.
"2".
