The Genius Mage

Chapter 411: Unreasonable

In front of it, a group of people was as small as a group of ants.

Audrey was dragged by Morris as she ran forward.

The monster moved forward with great difficulty.

“Stop right there!” It roared angrily. At the same time, it spat out a ball of white liquid as though it was raining.

“Don’t be sprayed by his liquid!”

Audrey warned as she hid.

The reason why the valley water here was poisonous was probably because of his existence.

Hiding was never a solution.

Audrey turned around to look. Seeing how clumsy his actions were, she gradually had an idea. She summoned the Fire Phoenix, sat on it, and walked straight to the wall of water.

“How was it? Was the game fun?” Audrey raised her eyebrows and said provocatively.

She had easily angered it.

He opened his mouth as if he was shooting poison at Audrey, but Audrey was already prepared. The moment it opened its mouth, she drew her sharp sword and swung it fiercely.

Painful howls echoed throughout the valley, and the wall of water’s body began to sway.

However, this was not enough.

Audrey stabbed the blade in her hand into the water wall’s eyes again. The water wall was clumsy and could not dodge in time. It could only wave its hands randomly in the air.

However, Fire Phoenix’s body was agile, so it did not have a chance to hit it.

And underground, Klein and the others were also launching a fierce attack on the water wall. Its body had been slashed open one after another, and milky-white venom kept oozing out.

“Be careful, don’t get involved,” Morris warned.

In just a few minutes, the few of them had worked together to subdue this behemoth.

The four of them looked at each other and smiled. The man walked out from the stone at the side and said happily, “I knew I wouldn’t make a mistake following you guys. You guys are really amazing.”

Audrey did not respond to his praise. When she thought of the boy’s death, she still felt a little guilty.

“Let’s not talk about this anymore. Let’s hurry up and leave.”

The sky gradually darkened. They had to find a safe place to rest.

“Alright, alright,” the man answered immediately and led the group to the other side of the mountain.

Unlike the mountainous area in the river valley, this area was much more spacious and had better lighting. Although there were trees, they were generally shorter and mainly made of rocks.

“Why don’t we make do here for the night?” The man led them to a large smooth rock. The terrain here was higher, but the rocks were smooth. It was indeed a good place to set up camp.

“Alright.” Audrey nodded and agreed.

After walking for so long, everyone was exhausted. Frank and Kate did not even have the time to set up a tent before they sat down on the rock.

Audrey walked alone to the highest point and bent her knees to sit down.

There was still a faint light on the horizon. It looked pretty good.

“What’s wrong?”

After sitting for a while, Morris came up. He could tell that he was still worried about what had happened during the day when he saw Audrey’s downcast expression.

“There’s no need to think too much. Life and death here are just a matter of an instant. No one can blame us. What we need to do is to protect our status and life.”

Looking at his face, Audrey smiled in relief.

How could she not know the whole truth? However, watching a living life disappear in front of her, no matter what, she could not feel relieved in a short period of time.

“I know.”

Morris nodded and looked toward the horizon. He said, “I don’t know how long our trip will take, but Audrey, promise me that you’ll put yourself first in the future, okay?”

Audrey knew that Morris was worried about her, so she nodded with a smile.

The two of them were chatting. On the rocks below, the man had already lit a bonfire. There were four or five rabbits roasting on the fire, and the aroma was very tempting.

“Come down quickly, let’s eat.” Klein waved at the two of them, indicating for them to come down quickly.

“Where did these come from?” Audrey walked down and asked as she looked at the rabbit meat in surprise.

Klein pointed at the man and said, “It was done by this uncle. We don’t have the ability to do so.”

After all, catching rabbits was not an easy task.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, the man scratched his head in embarrassment and said, “We’ve been here for so long and have some understanding of some of the methods of catching food. It’s not worth mentioning. If you guys want to eat in the future, feel free to tell us.”

Audrey remembered that the man had been fiddling with something with his companions ever since he came up. It turned out that he was catching rabbits.

“Come, try it. It’s very fragrant.” Seeing that Audrey did not move, the man took a rabbit from the shelf and handed it to Audrey.

“Thank you.”

The fragrance entered her nose, and the hunger in Audrey’s stomach was aroused. She took a bite, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously curled up. It was indeed very delicious.

Under the bonfire and the night sky, everyone’s hearts seemed to come closer.

While eating the rabbit meat, Klein suddenly looked at the man and asked, “Uncle, it’s been so long. I still don’t know your name.”

The man smiled foolishly and said, “My name is Aite.”

“By the way, you guys are already so powerful. Why are you still looking for the cliff flower?”

The man had been wondering in his heart, and today he finally found an opportunity to ask out.
