Age of Adepts

As Shattered Face Gallo silently gazed in the direction where the Eyeball Demonic Armament had disappeared, an exceptionally strong, black-armored man drove the Demonic Colt to his side.

The two fierce magic colts came together, and instead of showing the slightest intent to get close to each other, they leaned over each other with a low roar and made a gesture of intimidation and attack.

After all, all magic colts were synthesized using sorcery methods, and just from their appearance, one could see the shadows of the Earth Lion, the Shadow Leopard, the Unicorn, and many other types of demons. Precisely because of their complex origins and chaotic life factors, they were almost unadulterated males, unable to reproduce and grow on their own.

Their lives, on the other hand, were only a mere ten years, and they belonged to a mass-produced, cheap witch beast!

But here, cheap did not equal weak.

It was because of the shortness of their lives, all the berserk factors and battle potential in their bodies were stimulated to their limits by sorcery methods, so instead they behaved even more wildly and tyrannically.

With that strange magic sword on his back, Shattered Face Gallo stretched out his bushy hand and tapped on the magic colt's skull, hissing, "Give me a lower voice! If you alert the enemy scouts, you two will be roasted and eaten for meat..."

Although his words were light and airy, they were imbued with a terrifying authority that could not be ignored. The two demonic colts immediately ambled down, no longer returning to their previous tyrannical and ferocious appearance.

"Head, do you think we can succeed in this sneak attack?" The strong black-armored man was also a body refining sorcerer, his muscles almost bursting through his black armor, and there was a long scar on his cheek, but it was not removed, instead adding a more and more vicious and cruel air to him.

But in front of the immobile, shatter-faced Gallo, he was honest and tame like a rabbit, full of fawning and pleasing smiles.

"That's not something you should be concerned about!" Shattered Face Gallo blocked the other party with a cold word, but then he whispered, "The Swamp of Sorrow that we raided this time is the other party's forbidden land, and I heard that it's the place where those giant mushrooms are grown..."

Upon hearing this, the black-armored man's face was delighted, his long scarlet tongue stretched out and licked his dry lips, his face full of excitement and excitement.

Giant mushrooms... that was the most sought-after top resource in the middle of the continent during this period.

It was said that this special mushroom originating from a different plane was able to effectively improve a shaman's physique. High-ranked witches could grow an average of about 1 point, while middle-ranked witches could improve by an average of 2 points.

As for low ranked witches, heck, no low ranked witches had been fortunate enough to obtain such a top level resource so far.

The strong black-armored man who was originally only a 3rd rank beginner thought that he would never see such a good thing in his life. But who knew that this family raid mission was actually to plunder and destroy that Crimson Family's secret sanctuary, the Swamp of Sorrow.

As such, when running there for a massacre, if he was lucky, even he, the deputy leader of the Dripping Blood Spear, might be able to obtain some good loot.

At the thought of this, the black-armored strong man licked his lips more frequently.

"Be careful, our operation might not go too well this time! If you encounter those famous guys inside the Crimson Family..." at this point, Shatterface Gallo couldn't help but narrow his eyes, "You're on your own!"

"It's okay, it's not a head you!" The black-armored strong man still looked as if he didn't care, "Head, you're a peak 3rd stage existence! The Crimson Family has a lot of 3rd rank, but I've never heard of a guy on par with you before!"

Shattered Face Galore shook his head glumly, "Rumors are not to be believed! If the rumors are true, how could I have failed miserably at the hands of that Grim..."

Gallo practically squeezed it out of his teeth when he mentioned Grim's name. Although a hundred years had passed, he still held a nagging grudge.

That chance might have been the closest he'd ever gotten to the 4th rank!

Without the source quality, one could only rely on one's own bloodline talent to save up a little bit of promotion energy, and the hardships and risks involved were simply not something that outsiders could appreciate.

"Head, don't worry! There aren't many perverts like that legendary fire witch, maybe..."

At the moment when the black-armored man was still talking freely, a commotion suddenly came from within the ranks of the Magic Colt scattered in the jungle.

The commotion grew more intense and showed signs of triggering a riot.

"What's going on? Don't you bastards know we're on a sleeper mission? What are you guys making a fuss about?" The black-armored strong man hurriedly shouted in a low voice.

"Worm... worm..."

"Head, there are bugs!"

Hearing the hidden cries of fear from several Magic Colt Knights, Shattered Face Gallo's heart sank.

The Dripping Blood Spear Force was a wizard team that he had assembled, and all of its members had the strength of an official wizard level. The knight captains distributed in the team, on the other hand, all had the basic strength of a 2nd rank intermediate.

As for him, the leader of the team was at the peak of the 3rd rank, while the deputy leader was at the 3rd rank primary.

Such a powerful force of magic cavalry would not be able to panic even if they were thrown into a group of demons. Even if they were in a dangerous situation, they wouldn't have the slightest panic or fear. They would use the spears and swords in their hands to kill their way out, and would not stop their endless killing until they had the heads of all their enemies hanging from their saddles.

Such a powerful team of magic cavalry would fear a mere insect? Either the person who said it was suffering from an insanity, or...it wasn't just a bug!

Shattered Face Gallo was worthy of being a chief level elite sorcerer capable of leading the Dripping Blood Spear, and an image of a terrifying sorcerer instantly surfaced within his heart.

Let's hope it wasn't this bastard....

As he silently prayed, Smashed Face Gallo slapped the magic horse beneath him and rushed to the area where the rioting was most intense.

Relying on the sharp claws on its sturdy limbs, the magic horse not only flew across the flat ground, but also climbed and leapt over steep cliffs and the trunks of ancient trees.

After a few leaps to reach the scene, the scene immediately made Shattered Face Gallo and the black-armored strong man's heart slightly heavy.

Near the fibrous feet of a tall ancient tree's rootstock, the black earth rose into a half-meter high mound. Then the soil crumbled and countless terrifying black beetles emerged from it.

These black beetles were each the size of a mastiff dog, and their body shells shone with a terrifying phosphorescence under the dim light of the jungle. They have a hard shell outside the body, the body on both sides with four pairs of the same shining metal shiny sharp jointed limbs, fierce insect head in front of a pair of huge insect pincers.

Although these black beetles were inconspicuous, they were extremely difficult to deal with.

Their armor was tough enough to withstand ordinary magical weapons, while their knuckles and claws were sharp enough to pierce through and bite through a three-finger-thick leather armor. Even the Magic Colt Rider's demonic armor, under the gnawing of the black beetles, continued to explode with a dazzling glow, leaving a horrifying and clearly visible scratch on its metal surface.

Due to the sudden appearance of the insects, they emerged directly from the ground where the Magic Colt Knights were perched, instantly leaving the three members trapped in a sea of insects.

The Magic Colt Knights beside them could no longer care about the injunction to lie still, and one by one, the Rune Spear continued to thrust out, each strike accompanied by a dazzling sorcery roar.

They were protected by enchanted armor, and the rune spears in their hands could choose different elemental attacks according to the enemy's elemental characteristics.

Faced with a tidal wave of black insects, they naturally preferred fire attacks that had the largest attack range and the most ferocious attack power.

Unfortunately, these flaming spears that used to destroy all life within a ten-meter radius fell within the swarm, but they could only use their sharpness and the power of the flames to kill a few heads in the core of the attack.

The other black beetles in the attack range are only wounded but not dead, and are still desperately attacking the three unfortunates trapped in the sea of insects.

In the midst of the insect swarm, the tall black figures roared and roared, and exploded with an amazing elemental roar, but they were still unable to get rid of the insects. The Demon Colt, trapped in the sea of insects, relied on the thick scaly armor on the outside of his body, and struggled amidst the tooth-crunching and gnawing sounds.

Unfortunately, there were too many worms besieging them, and a huge mountain of worms had been stacked on top of them. The worms were writhing, and every resistance from the Magic Colt Riders only caused the black beetles on the worm pile to roll down one layer.

However, even though they fought hard, the insect pile was still so thick, never giving them the slightest chance to escape. The beetles that followed were even approaching the Magic Colt Knight's army, intending to wipe them out.

Worm Witch Billis...definitely Worm Witch Billis!

In the entire Crimson Family, the only one who was able to cultivate worms to this extent was that 3rd level mid-level Worm Witch Billis....

"Riese, you go and get the three of them out!"

Shattered Face Gallo pulled out the magic sword behind his back with one hand, and a pair of cold, cloudy pupils began to scan the perimeter of the battlefield without stopping.

The black-armored strong man's name was Raiser.

The other party promised to push his magic colt on his hip and rushed towards the still rising and writhing pile of worms.

Then the latter had just reached the halfway point when Shattered Face Gallo roared fiercely and swung his magic sword left and right in his hand, two invisible and indistinguishable threads of power slicing through the long sky, instantly baring the two Void Predators that had just dived to Riese's side.

The threads of power sliced through the air, and there was simply no substance along the way that could stop their progress.

Slicing through, the tree vines brushed and snapped....

Across a certain empty, seemingly empty space, a miserable giant insect hissed. Immediately afterwards, insect blood spattered, insect heads were thrown flying, and two strange insect corpses over two meters long crashed through the underbrush forest and fell into the grass.

The death of the two Level 2 Void Predators seemed to have started a strange killing feast, and the surrounding jungle immediately resounded with the incessant hissing of giant insects.

Countless strange and peculiar insect shadows began to loom all over the jungle....
