The Genius Mage

“We have to go out together?” Barbara frowned.

“Yes.” Klein glanced at the others who were looking over.

“By the way, do you know who took the Snow Lotus?” Barbara actually had a feeling that Audrey and the others had taken the Snow Lotus, but it was not good to ask directly. If it were not Audrey’s team who obtained the Snow Lotus, it would be very awkward.

“It’s us.” Audrey could naturally tell what Barbara was thinking. She was a gentle and considerate girl.

“Wow, I knew you could do it!” Ross’ eyes lit up, and she looked at Audrey as if she had seen a precious treasure.

The other three walked over and stood beside Barbara and Ross. They naturally heard their conversation and secretly sized up Audrey, who had just entered the advanced class.

Previously, they did not know that Barbara and Ross, who were students of the intermediate class, still had to deal with the giants of the advanced class.

Usually, they did not dare to provoke them. The few people who had reluctantly agreed to let Barbara and Ross join because they did not have enough workforce felt fortunate at this moment.

“You guys should get to know each other,” Ross said with a smile when she felt the other members of the team walking over.

They knew everyone in Audrey’s team. But, unfortunately, they were all from the advanced class, so they skipped the introduction.

“I’m Cory, a student from the advanced class of the Dou Qi Academy.” Cory extended his hand and shook hands with Audrey and the others in turn.

Cory’s attitude was excellent. He was also big and burly, but his aura was perfect.

“I’m Ferrier, and I’m also from the advanced class of the Dou Qi Academy.” Ferrier, who was standing beside Cory, also introduced himself.

“She’s the same as them,” said Angeline. She shook hands with everyone once again, but when it was Audrey’s turn, she retracted her hand and smiled as she turned her head to speak to the others.

It seemed like she was not careful.

“She did it on purpose!” Klein could see the other party’s motives at a glance and felt indignant.

Audrey stopped Klein. “It’s fine. It doesn’t matter.” She glanced at Angeline’s back.

Angeline really did not like Audrey. Before Audrey came, she had been the focus of the team and was treated like a princess. However, after Audrey came, things began to change.

“We want to form a team with you. However, we can only open the door by combining our tokens,” Audrey said her purpose.

“Sure, I have no problem with that,” replied Cory with a shrug. He was a student in the advanced class, so he naturally knew that Audrey, Adrian, and the others by her side were all influential figures.

Although everyone said that Audrey did not have the strength, he felt that if she really did not have the strength, would she be able to be together with Klein and the others?

“Me too.” Ferrier and Cory maintained the same attitude, but they did not care.

In any case, their strength was inferior to Audrey and the others. So they might as well go out with Audrey and the others so that they could go out earlier.

The two of them had expressed their attitudes, leaving Angeline alone without saying anything.

Everyone’s gazes fell on Angeline, so she could only agree.

“What else can I say!?” Angeline said angrily.

Cory walked forward.

“This is a token.” Cory handed the token to Audrey.

“Thank you.” Audrey took the token.

She combined the tokens of the two teams. The token became the focus of everyone’s attention.

Looking at the token in her hand, a look of certainty flashed across Audrey’s eyes. She mobilized the surrounding natural elements and injected them into the token. If she were not wrong, they would be able to open a passage back.

However, after a long while, the combined token did not change at all. Even the air did not fluctuate at all.

“Why wouldn’t it work!?” Klein looked at the token that did not move at all and frowned. He could not figure out what was going on at all, so he lowered his head and muttered to himself.

Barbara and Ross stood beside Audrey. They did not know what was going on, but the two of them subconsciously moved closer to Audrey.

Compared to their teammates, they trusted Audrey more.

“Maybe it’s because we don’t have enough strength. The power of the token isn’t enough.” Audrey crossed her arms over her chest as she looked at the motionless token with a deep gaze.

“Does that mean that we need to find more teams?” Hobart exclaimed.

If we find other teams, can we really keep the Snow Lotus in our hands until then? That was what Cole thought.

At the same time, the others also thought of this. Other than Audrey, everyone’s expressions did not look too good.

“It’s fine. We’ll definitely be able to protect the Snow Lotus.” Audrey could tell that everyone was anxious, so she took the initiative to console them with a comforting smile on her face.

When Kate saw Audrey’s smile, he was stunned. He really had no resistance to Audrey’s smile.

The corners of Kate’s lips curled up slightly. If it were not for Hobart deliberately bumping into Kate, Kate might not have been able to react until now.

Audrey did not notice Kate’s expression and his daze.

“But it’s already late. So let’s set up camp and rest,” Audrey said as she looked up at the sky.

“I agree!” Ross had been exhausted for a while, so she was instantly energized when Audrey said they would camp and rest here.
