The Genius Mage

After Audrey and the others had walked for a while, they suddenly felt a dangerous aura. Audrey immediately became alert and looked around.

A moment later, a python slowly appeared from the depths of the forest.

The thick body of the python was one meter thick. It had two golden eyes and looked at Audrey and the others covetously. Then, it extended its snake tongue and moved toward them.

“Snakes again.” A strange look flashed across Kate’s face. When he thought of the snakes he had encountered on the isolated island, his scalp tingled. They were extremely difficult to deal with.

“Be careful,” reminded Audrey. Although the snake in front of her was just an ordinary python that was a little too fat, she could sense an intense dangerous aura from it.

It was probably a python that had killed countless people. In this forest, it could be considered a giant.

In the blink of an eye, the python had already slithered in front of them. Its thick body seemed to be able to kill a person just by lifting them up. In order to prevent the other party from suddenly attacking, Audrey immediately built an ice wall to block in front of them.

After sizing them up for a while, the python moved forward and tried to attack with its body.

However, it was blocked by the transparent ice wall. The python’s attack was fruitless, so it was a little angry. It used a strong force to hit the wall, and only then did some cracks appear on the ice wall.

“Get ready. Take your positions.” Audrey looked at her teammates solemnly.

After many battles, the six of them had formed a tacit understanding. Each of them had a place to stand and things to do. In just a moment, they had settled in their respective places.

Audrey stood at the front of the python and faced it directly.

“Frost arrow!” Audrey took the initiative to strike first. Three ice-blue arrows shot out from her hands and headed straight for the python.

She had thought that such a huge python would move slowly, but she did not expect it to dodge it so nimbly. Audrey was surprised. She finally understood why the python was so powerful.

“Wind splitting slash!” Behind the python, Hobart gathered his battle Qi. He swung his longsword and sent out an ax-like battle Qi.

The python still dodged.

“Heh! I didn’t expect it to be so agile.” Cole snorted coldly and teased.

Immediately after, his expression tensed. A stream of battle Qi was released from his longsword. The python was caught off guard and its tail was struck, leaving some scars.

Seeing this, Cole revealed a satisfied smile and said, “No matter how fast you are, you are still under my Dou Qi. So let me take care of it properly today.”

As he spoke, Cole used another Dou technique. “Earth splitting slash!”

The ground was split into pieces. The python’s body was stuck in it, causing people to feel extremely happy. However, the python quickly struggled out of it and rushed towards Cole at a very fast speed. It opened its bloody mouth… it seemed to be able to swallow half of a person.

“Cole, be careful!” The cries of his teammates could be heard from the surroundings, but they did not have time to attack.

Audrey was the only one who flashed in front of Cole at her fastest speed. She brandished her longsword and blocked the python in front of her, blocking its approach.

However, this was only based on Audrey’s own strength. She did not use any combat aura or magic, so it was somewhat strenuous for her.

“Seize the opportunity and attack it,” Audrey said, reminding her teammates who were still in a state of shock.

Only then did they react and make their moves.

“Gale slash!” Adrian’s face darkened. He directly mobilized the wind elements around him and condensed them into a sharp knife, slashing at the python’s body.

“Extermination slash!”

Kate and the others were not idle either. They used their best combat techniques one after another.

The python was busy dealing with Audrey. It was not paying attention for a moment and had already taken a few blows. Its entire body was covered in wounds. It let out a miserable cry and finally stopped fighting with Audrey. Instead, it turned to attack the others.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Audrey leaped up and arrived beside the python. She picked a seven-inch spot and struck out. “Gale fire pearl!”

The huge fire bead rolled toward the python and burned its body. No matter how hard the python struggled, it was unable to escape. Soon, the smell of burnt flesh came from it.

Only then did Audrey stabilize her body. She looked at the dying python and ignored it.

“I didn’t expect the smell of burnt snake meat to be so fragrant. Why don’t we take it and eat it?” Cole said jokingly.

However, he was immediately interrupted by Audrey. “We can’t. We don’t know how it is. It might be poisonous.”

“I know. It’s just a joke. Audrey, you’re too serious.” Cole smiled embarrassedly and teased her. “However, thank you for your concern.”

Audrey was stunned for a moment as a hint of helplessness flashed across her eyes.

After ensuring that there were no other dangers around them, Audrey and the others wanted to continue forward. However, after taking a few steps, Audrey noticed two figures.

They were the figures that had appeared behind her.

“Come out!” Audrey suddenly shouted.

Her teammates were dumbfounded, not understanding what she was saying.

However, two people jumped down from the tree and they immediately reacted. It turned out that they had been followed for so long.

“Why… are you guys here?” Kate’s expression was ugly. Every time they met these people, they would always get injured. Therefore, after coming down many times, he felt a little uneasy.
