Chapter 130
Due to Peter's death, the Orm Family's forces shrank even faster. Apart from a few peak level-7 mages, the rest of the official mages in the family were all dispatched.
This action once again disrupted the war alliance's plan. A large number of apprentices who received information to harvest merits encountered official Anti-Mages and suffered heavy casualties.
At first, the war alliance thought that this was just a coincidence, but after more and more incidents, they realized that something was wrong.
"Shirley, Hayley, where did Ignas go?" Lilith asked the twins in the command center.
Hayley seemed very irritable. "Ignas is not our slave. How would we know where he went?"
"The Orm Family's actions have something to do with you, right?" Lilith's amber eyes were as calm as a lake. After hearing Hayley's words, she did not waver at all. Although it was a question, her tone was firm.
The calmer Lilith was, the more irritated Hayley was. She hated Lilith's conceited attitude. "Are you questioning us? Why? So what if we do, and so what if we don't? "
Lilith felt that it was impossible to communicate with people who had lost their minds. She turned to Shirley and asked, "Shirley …"
Shirley frowned and interrupted her. "You know that he was following us, right?"
Lilith nodded. "You know, Ignas is a member of the war alliance …"
Hayley sneered loudly. "So what if he's a war alliance? Is he superior to others? Isn't he still … "
"Hayley, shut up!"
Lilith's gaze swept back and forth between the two of them. She then said with certainty, "You two killed an Anti-Mage in Molan City. Ignas probably wanted to snatch the merits, so you two killed him. However, the two of you did not have the ability to kill Ignas, so the one who really did it was Adam, right?"
Hayley knew that she was in trouble. She lowered her head and did not say anything else. Shirley pulled her sister and walked out of the room.
Lilith turned to the other war alliance members in the command center and said, "Adam is very strong."
"But no matter how strong he is, he's still just one person. Ignas' death doesn't matter, but we have to show our attitude."
"That's right. Otherwise, the War Alliance's authority in the trial will be completely gone."
For an organization that tried to influence the trial, losing authority was fatal. Lilith knew that they were right, but for some reason, she felt uneasy.
"Then, inform all the apprentices that they are forbidden from providing any help or information to Moldo's Adam. Issue a bounty. Anyone who discovers Adam's whereabouts will be rewarded with 85 merit points, and anyone who kills Adam will be rewarded with 655 merit points."
— — —
Adam did not know that the War Alliance had issued a bounty on him. It had been a week since he killed Ignas, and Adam had already left the territory of the Aomu Family, and arrived at the other side of Ceylon Island.
"Master, the towns we passed by have a lot of merit points. Why do we have to come here? There might be an official Anti-Mage in this city." The master and servant floated above a big city in the territory of the Hill Family, and the Devil asked in confusion.
"Those towns are too small. There's no value in destroying them. What I'm about to do is more interesting than plundering merit points."
The Devil felt a little uneasy. It had heard similar words many times in the past few days, but every time it asked what was going on, it would find that its master looked at it with an extremely kind gaze, which made it shiver.
Before it could say anything, it found itself shot towards the town like a cannonball. Adam's order rang in its ears, "Go and kill all the apprentices. Be careful not to destroy the buildings that are similar to the laboratories."
The territory of the Hill Family was not as guarded as the Aomu Family, and the city under their feet still maintained its normal order. Adam found that the lives of the mortals here were much better than those of the Aomu Family. It was probably because the magic that the two forces researched were different. The Aomu Family researched human despair, so they needed to kill the mortals from time to time. On the other hand, the Hill Family researched mutated creatures, so they did not have a high demand for mortals.
Adam did not want to do it himself. His magic was too powerful and destructive, and it could easily cause accidental casualties. The experiment equipment in the city might be a valuable asset to him.
The merit points kept jumping. The Devil was very suitable for assassination. As a sentient being, it would not be stopped by ordinary materials, and the weaker apprentices would not be able to resist it at all. As long as it did not appear …
"Master! Help! There's an official monster here! "
Before Adam could finish his thought, he heard a series of cries for help from the Devil. Then, the center of the town trembled like an earthquake. A huge crack appeared on the ground, and an energy storm blew out along with an overwhelming stench. The whole city was instantly shrouded in a strange dark green wind.
"Why does this monster look so familiar?" Adam was not in a hurry to make a move. Instead, he took out a rusty knife from his Dimensional Pocket. Adam had studied this knife before, but because of the different knowledge system, Adam could not activate its ability at all. So, he just casually threw it aside. This was the spoil of war that Adam obtained from an Anti-Mage apprentice during his first mission. He remembered that woman was called Serena.
The monster in front of him looked similar to the parasitic monster that Serena had summoned. It had a messy body like a stitched monster, and it had no intelligence. It only had the instinct to kill and destroy. Its body could release energy attacks, and every drop of its body fluid and every breath it took was accompanied by poison.
Adam reached out and pointed at the mutated monster. Thunder Sculpting turned into a giant dragon, and it fell from the sky and hit the monster's head.
The energy field around the monster's body almost solidified, weakening the thunder layer by layer. In the end, although Adam's magic hit the monster, the damage it caused was almost negligible.
A drop of green blood dripped on the ground and turned into a small monster.
"It's really the same thing. The apprentice should be from the Hill family. This kind of thing is harder to deal with compared to the Orm family." Adam's eyes were kind. The monster itself was not worth mentioning. Although it had the power of an official monster, its essence was still at a low level. However, the method to synthesize this kind of monster was what Adam urgently needed right now.
Crackle, crackle.
Following Adam's actions, countless lightning dragons descended from the sky one after another, accurately hitting the demonic creatures. The demonic creatures roared in pain, and with every movement of their massive bodies, a large number of buildings were destroyed. The mortals in the city also suffered heavy casualties.
