120 Chapter 120
Rezen’s figure flickered again as he met a black snake with his fist
Bang!
The snake’s head instantly turned into a meat paste, the pieces of its flesh splattered around, some even landing on Rezen’s clothes
Afterward, two black snakes launched themselves at Rezen, planning to attack from the side and two mages blocked them for him
“[Shadow Suit]”
“[Shadow Dance!]”
The two mages cast the same spell. A black magic circle appeared below each of them before their bodies vanishes from their original location
When they reappeared, they were already standing on Rezen’s side while wielding daggers with their hands while their bodies were covered with a black suit
Splash!
The two black snakes that tried to attack Rezen were cut in half, their blood and innards dirtying the ground
Cold weapons in this world such as daggers normally don’t have any specific magical effects but the daggers of these two mages are not normal daggers
They are Mystic Items!
As soon as the snakes were cut by their daggers, the daggers absorbs the snakes’ essence
Afterward, the two mages slashed their daggers in the air, and crescent shape energy attack was sent by them that cut through several snakes in succession
Mystic Items that are imbued by the power of 7th rank mages are generally rare.
Furthermore, the higher the grade is, the more precious it would be. Even in the Preston Family, not all of them have one
These two mages only have Mystic Items right now because the person that they are protecting possessed the Token of Gratitude
The two mages continued, their figures would sometimes disappear just for them to appear near the black snakes
Rezen’s eyes flickered and he consumed a recovery pill to replenish his mana. He stretched his hand out and he created four magic circles at once
“[Blessing of the Crow God!]”
Rezen gave a buff to his Nightmare Crows that were being killed by the black snakes. A single spell cannot buff all of them and Rezen decided to cast the buff spell multiple times to buff all the crows
With the help of recovery pills, Rezen managed to buff all the remaining more than a thousand Nightmare Crows and their rate of casualty slowed down
“Roo, use a large-scale attack!” Rezen ordered and the Golden Crow issued a loud bird cry while flapping its wings aggressively
Mana gathered at the crow’s beak for some time while Rezen gave another order
“Evil Groundshrooms, dive underground!”
The Evil Groundshrooms did as they were told and their bodies blended with the earth
Boom!
Roo shot a thick ray of sunshine at the black snakes, killing more than a hundred of them with a single attack
These magic beasts might have exploded with strength greater than they originally had but their bodies were really fragile
“Urrkk…” Roo uttered a weakened cry as the power of the sun radiating from its body just moments ago dissipated
Roo returned to its original size and slowly flew towards Rezen in a weakened manner
In return, Rezen threw a recovery pill that Roo immediately swallowed
At this moment, the Evil Groundshrooms emerged from the ground and fought with the black snakes again before these snakes could slaughter the Needle Shooting Cacti located in the rear
The Needle Shooting Cacti has significant firepower but they are very fragile and they should be protected while shooting needles at the enemies
The Evil Groundshrooms don’t have an excellent defense but they are better than the cacti. Besides, if they are in danger, they can escape underground
“Coo!!”
The other Nightmare Crows also cried out as they sent purple beams, buying Rezen and Roo some time
“Again!”
Rezen’s sun and crow-type mystic gem floated on his side and he pointed his hand at Roo
“[Combination Magic: Golden Crow Transformation!]”
The two magic circles, one purplish black and one yellow landed on Roo’s body and transformed it again
The dazzling golden feathers of the Golden Crow appeared for the nth time as Roo grew into a two meters crow
The crow gathered mana into its beak again before attacking with another ray of sunlight after the Evil Groundshrooms escaped underground
In this way, Rezen can lessen the casualties on his defensive units and after tens of minutes of fighting, the black snakes finally died
“Ha… haaa…” Rezen huffed, his body relaxing a bit
Finally, no more black snakes were in sight!
However, looking at the state of his farm… Rezen’s heart can’t help but ache
Of the 1,500 Nightmare Crows, only 1,100 were still alive. That’s almost 1/3 of them that died!
The unit with the highest casualty was the Evil Groundshrooms, more than a thousand of them died while only around a hundred Needle Shooting Cacti died since they are in the rear and are protected
Suddenly, Rezen sensed gazes directed at him and he saw the two Scarlet Death Squad mages looking at him
Rezen can only see their eyes and he can see complicated emotions in them and he is not stupid enough to not know the reason
His performance in the battle was too great all thanks to his recovery pills. He doesn’t need to care about mana consumption at all
In fact, even these two mages might have died if Rezen didn’t give them recovery pills from time to time
As much as these two are ‘death guards’, deep inside them, they still have emotions and they are also not stupid
If the news of Rezen’s recovery pills were spread outside, he definitely would suffer
In fact, as loyal members of the Preston Family, these two mages have the desire to inquire about the recovery pills
These miraculous pills would definitely help the Clan greatly if they have them
This is the reason why although Rezen let these two guards of him protect his life, he is still not comfortable with having them
Their loyalties were not on Rezen but on the Preston Family
“You two, are you going to spread the news about my possessions?” Rezen asked coldly and that brought the two mages back to reality
They hurriedly kneeled down before speaking
“Sir Rezen, the moment that we are assigned as your guards, our life and death all depend on you”
“We, the Scarlet Death Squad would be completely loyal to the Masters we are protecting as long as the master wouldn’t try to harm the Clan”
Despite the two reassuring Rezen, he is still not comfortable and his eyes squinted before he retrieved a piece of carrot from his void storage ring
“Come here you two, eat this” Rezen ordered and the two mages didn’t even hesitate as they broke the carrot in half before eating them
“Are they women?” Rezen thought. He didn’t see the entirety of their faces but just the chin, red lips, and pearly white teeth alone, he can infer that they are women
Since their voice sounds neither masculine nor feminine and the mage robe that they were wearing was not tight, Rezen didn’t realize their sex earlier
Nonetheless, whether men or women, Rezen always treat people equally. There would be no favoritism to one sex over another
After the two finished eating the carrot without even asking the reason why, Rezen clicked his fingers together
As soon as he did that, the two mages were suddenly plunged into deep darkness. They completely lost their sense of sight
“Eating that carrot puts a restriction on your body. If you try to betray me, you will die, understood?”
That carrot was the same mutated carrot that Rezen used against Macy and Florine. Obviously, Rezen lied to them
Even until now, Rezen still hasn’t grown another mutated soybean that could hypnotize the consumer
He only has one with him and Rezen only planned on using them on a 6th fusion rank mage
He just used the carrots to make himself look believable. Only with a restriction would he be a bit comfortable letting these two mages guard him
“Yes, Sir Rezen” the two replied and Rezen clicked his fingers again causing them to regain their vision
“Alright, that’s all” Rezen said and the two casts their spell that let them blend in with the shadows and disappeared
“System, absorb the corpses” Rezen ordered and the corpses of the magic beasts and the dead spirit plants were swallowed by the farm
“[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for receiving lottery tickets x50,003 and blessing points x49,870]
“That much?” Rezen exclaimed in shock
There were only several thousands of black snakes that attacked. A corpse of a 4th rank magic beast only gives 20 points
Even if all the black snakes were 4th rank magic beasts, the number should not reach this much
“System, why did I receive that much?” Rezen asks curiously and fortunately, the system answered him
[The black snakes contain traces of ‘special energies’ in their bodies and the dead spirit plants also give points]
“Huh? The Spirit Plants can also be absorbed by the farm?! Why didn’t I know of this?!” Rezen exclaimed in surprise. This was news for him
[The Host didn’t ask] the system replied and Rezen pursed his lips
Is it just him or after the farm’s upgrade, the system seems to be different than before?
