Chapter 121

The transaction went smoothly. The three of them had collected information on four small towns. There were twenty to forty Anti-Mage Apprentices in each town, and none of them had an official Anti-Mage.

Adam paid twenty Merit points, and the three of them were happy to sell the information to Adam. They had joined the trial with the same intention.

After the transaction, Adam bade farewell to the three of them and rushed to the nearest town.

The devil's words reminded him that Anti-Mage would not be so stupid as to allow his limited power to be scattered outside and let the trial apprentices rush him one by one. The reason why Adam had been so successful these two times was probably because he had caught them off guard. If he did not take advantage of the time when they had yet to react to the situation and reap as many merits as possible, it would not be so easy in the future.

Adam spent a total of two days to raze the four cities to the ground. Including the two towns before, he had obtained a total of more than two hundred Merit points. Because of the frequent use of large-scale magic, his mana recovery rate could not keep up with the rate of consumption, so he could only destroy a town in half a day.

"As expected, the Anti-Mage is on the move. I just don't know if they will choose to restrain their power to defend or gather their power to attack."

Adam muttered to himself in the air after destroying the fourth city. He was almost too late. The lord of this city was already preparing to escape into the depths. When he arrived, the Anti-Mage Apprentices were chasing away the mortals. When they saw him, they did not hesitate and directly sacrificed the Despair monster to stop him.

The devil had a strange hobby. He liked to rummage through the ruins of Adam's city to look for spoils of war. Although he had never found anything, he still enjoyed it.

"Master, have you never read a Legendary novel?"

Hearing Adam's impatient urging, the Devil asked.

"No."

How boring. The devil secretly curled his lips, and then said, "The main character in the story, every time he defeats an enemy, he can obtain the enemy's treasure. It may be an alchemy item, or it may be a cultivation method. In short, it will make him stronger..."

"Idiot. If they had such things, would they have been destroyed so easily by me?" Adam said disdainfully. He then turned around and flew in another direction. Now that there was no confirmed information, he would have to search for the colony himself.

The Devil also knew that Adam was right, but it found it interesting. As it fiddled with the trash it picked up, it suddenly heard Adam ask, "You've been at the critical point for a long time, right?"

The Devil immediately puffed out his chest proudly. "Of course, as long as Master becomes an official Mage, I can immediately reach Level 6."

The Devil was still waiting to show off, but it found that Adam had stopped talking. It only felt that there was something stuck in its throat, and it was very uncomfortable.

After flying aimlessly for an entire day, they passed by two towns that were now empty. It was obvious that the Anti-Mages had come to their senses and had begun to deploy their forces. Adam and the Devil split up, hoping to obtain enough merits before the trial entered a stalemate.

Another day passed, and in the middle of the night, Adam received a message from the Devil. "Master, I see people. They have abandoned the town and are running away."

Adam ordered the Devil to stand in place and act as a target. He began to emit a strong magnetic field around him, distorting the space around him to a certain extent. Then, following the ripples and folds of space, Adam successfully teleported to the Devil's side.

The use of teleportation was still very stiff, and Adam felt that he had not found the right way. He had previously thought of buying the knowledge in this area, but he found that there was a restriction on his authority, so he could only give up.

"Master, big business. This seems to be a big city, and there are almost sixty apprentices underground."

The migration of the Orm family was very hasty. The Anti-Mage apprentices flew at low altitudes, killing any mortals that strayed from the group without hesitation, and then storing their flesh and soul in evil containers. It was obvious that they had realized the danger they were in, and had begun to shrink their forces towards the center.

The Devil was happily waiting for Adam's praise, but it found that its master was looking at it with a strange gaze. "Master? What's wrong with you? "

"You'll be the one to attack this time. I've used up too much of my magic power, and I need to construct a meditation technique to recover for a while."

The Devil spoke the truth in the air, and its mouth opened in surprise. "I'll be the one to attack?"

Adam looked at it coldly, and the Soul Whip was already itching for a fight. "Only eating and not working, how can there be such a good thing?"

"No, Master, you can't do that. You're insulting my character as a Devil! How can a Devil directly use energy to kill life? Signing a contract, and then elegantly plundering souls is what I should do! "

Adam kicked the Devil from the air to the ground, and used the power of the contract to lock it down to prevent it from escaping. Then, a bolt of lightning struck down from the sky, illuminating the night sky, and also the stunned faces of the Anti-Mages, as well as the shouting Devil.

"Is this, a Devil? Why is there such a strong negative energy aura on its body? "

"Cut the crap, kill it. How can there be lightning tonight, it must be the magic of the betrayer!"

The Devil laughed dryly. "About that … If I say this is a misunderstanding, would you believe me?"

What answered it was two waves of negative energy. The Devil's body shook to offset the magic, and it still made a final effort. "Why don't we sign a contract? Do you want power? "

The Anti-Mages apprentices had no intention of communicating with the Devil at all. After seeing that the negative energy magic was ineffective, the leader said, "Use elemental magic, end this quickly!"

As soon as he said that, an overwhelming amount of elemental magic was launched at the Devil. It covered its head and scurried away in the rain of magic, but it still did not fight back.

Until a Grenade of Holy Light hit its head, the Devil suddenly stopped, and growled in an unfamiliar tone that Adam had never heard before. "You hurt me, I don't like to fight, I hate to become ugly, but why do you always force me?"

The Devil's body began to mutate, and its chaotic form continued to grow. Large patches of dark purple flesh appeared on its body out of thin air, and tentacles grew out from all parts of its body, and finally, a second head grew out of its neck.

The negative energy field began to spread, and a large number of mortals involuntarily began to commit suicide, and their flesh and souls were directly devoured by the Devil.

"Die!"

One of the Devil's heads roared at the sky, while the other head opened its mouth and spewed out a purple torrent, and the tentacles on its body easily dispersed the magic.

"Despair Demon!"

"Despair Demon?"

Adam sat cross-legged in the sky, holding his chin as he looked down at the one-sided slaughter below. He had already felt that the Devil was hiding something from him, and a creature that had reached a critical point would not be as weak as it appeared to be. Now it seemed that the Devil had indeed given him a surprise.

"Is this the innate ability of a hybrid Abyssal creature?"
