The First Mage

Not to mention, Lynch still looks more than adequate...

Obviously everyone is a mage, you will embarrass me if you behave like this!

"Well, it's almost ready..." Lynch stopped his movements, and he was relieved when he saw that the dark rot flower was indeed dead. It's a pity that it slipped away at the last moment.

After Lin Qi confirmed it, he was about to go forward to harvest the magic core, but at this moment, he saw a small black bug drilled out of the body of the dark rotten flower.

When it first appeared, the little bug seemed to be a little confused about the situation, so it paused for a while, but maybe it sensed that there were too many people, the transparent wings on its back fluttered, and it fled quickly.

"What?" Lynch and Palin were very strange.

When the little bug first appeared, Hawking just glanced suspiciously, shook his head and ignored it, but not long after the little bug flew away, he suddenly remembered something, and his eyes lit up.

"Then, is that the Blood Flying Ant? Come on! Be sure to catch it!"

Then, before Hawking had time to explain anything, he threw himself and chased after him.

"What's the situation?" Lynch was also surprised to see the great mage so excited, but he didn't have time to think about it now. He also took Perrin and followed immediately.

Blood Flying Ants are a special kind of monsters. They are extremely fragile and have extremely weak combat power, but they can parasitize on powerful monsters and live by sucking their most essential flesh and blood.

After a long time, it has condensed the blood essence of the powerful monster with extremely high purity.

It's only after this chase that I realized that this blood flying ant is really difficult to deal with...

It doesn't fly very fast.

Lynch and the others caught up with the blood flying ant without much effort.

However, the environment of this forest is really complicated. Apart from the long and twisted branches, the ground also has high and low ground, which is not smooth, and even a few small monsters run past it from time to time.

And the Blood Flying Ant was extremely nimble in escaping in such a complex terrain. It was clearly within reach several times, but was easily escaped by it.

It came down several times, as if it was playing with the three of Lynch, even several times Lynch and the others almost fell to the ground, several times, Lynch could hardly help cursing...

I really can't catch it...

To make matters worse, the forest is not peaceful. Apart from the Wind Rat and the Dark Rot Flower, there are many other monsters lurking.

Although most of them were not high-level, they were just running away after being alarmed, but the large number of them caused a lot of obstacles for Lynch and the others.

"Damn it." Hawking couldn't hold back at this time, cursed secretly, and began to command: "Lynch, keep chasing from the front, Perrin, block it from behind with me!"

"good!"

When Lynch heard this, he quickly separated from Palin and walked around from the other side, jumping over layers of branches to encircle them.

Hawking, on the other hand, saw the route it observed, and waited quietly...

The Blood Flying Ant wasn't very fast, and Hawking was in front of it very quickly, just as it was about to rush out of the gap again.

Hawking threw an activated flame in the air, forcing it to change direction and head towards Lynch.

"Hehe, it's enough to run..." Lynch smiled. As he got closer to the blood flying ant, Lin Qi finally saw what the blood flying ant looked like...

The appearance is indeed similar to the legend, but there are cracks and cracks on the body, which is a bit strange...

It doesn't look like a natural texture, but it seems to have been seen somewhere...

Just as this doubt flashed across his mind, Lynch suddenly remembered that this seemed to be similar to a magic pattern he had seen before...

Magic pattern?

The Blood Flying Ant is just a monster, how could it have magic patterns on its body?

"No, go back!"

Thinking of this, Lynch's face suddenly changed. After saying this, he ignored the blood flying ant that was about to get his hands, and turned back directly.

Hawking and Palin were still staring at the blood flying ant at this moment, and they were caught off guard when they saw Lynch suddenly give up at this time, and paused for a while.

However, in this moment, the blood flying ant had a free time and had already flown out, unable to catch it anymore.

"What's wrong?" Perrin looked at the blood flying ants in the distance with some pity, and looked at Lynch strangely.

Including Hawking over there, who also frowned a little. If Lynch hadn't made a sudden noise, the monster that was about to be captured would not have escaped suddenly.

"That's not a blood flying ant." Lynch was in a hurry and didn't have time to say more, so he hurriedly finished this sentence and returned the same way.

"What is it if it's not a blood fly ant?" Perrin was full of wonder.

And Hawking frowned, and looked at the Blood Flying Ant that had already flown away with some reluctance, hesitated for a moment, and followed him back. During this period of time, he has seen too many outstanding things about this young mage, so now, he still chooses to trust Lynch.

But soon, as they went back, they saw a young mage next to the corpse of the dark rot flower, and saw that he was holding a serrated alchemy scalpel in his hand, operating something...

Maybe it was because he realized that someone had returned, the young mage raised his head, holding a green magic core in his hand.

Seeing Lin Qi and the others, the young mage didn't feel any panic about being caught. Instead, he naturally put the newly dug out magic core in his arms, and a gentle smile appeared on his delicate face: "Come back! It’s not bad to realize something is wrong so quickly.”

"Huh? You're back too. I thought you were lost."

As soon as he finished speaking, the young mage's eyes suddenly lit up, his eyes passed over Hawking, and he suddenly showed a smile.

A bug passed over Hawking's head, flew over with a whoosh, and landed on the young mage's fingertips.

Seeing the flying insect clearly, Hawking's expression turned cold.

That was the blood flying ant I had just caught.

Now the situation is obvious, this young mage manipulated the bug, disguised as a blood fly ant, and lured himself to wait for others to leave, so that he could collect the magic core...

Although they have been looking for companions, the one who appears now is obviously not a companion, but also a mage from another force. Otherwise, Hawking would not even know him.

During the winter hunting, the struggle and even the killing among the mages are the tacit consent of the major forces. No matter who falls, no force will deliberately investigate.

And now, with Hawking, the archmage present, the combat power of the three of them will undoubtedly crush
