Chapter 197: The Melee

“That’s Merlin? Elena, is that the young black-robed Spell Caster Merlin from the Dark Magic Region?”
Wizard Glen’s expression changed drastically as he asked Elena.
He knew that the so-called ‘Four Alchemists of Floating City’, indicated an alliance of mutual interest established by the four strongest roaming wizards in Floating City.
Moreover, these alchemists were truly powerful as they possessed unique skills of their own. As a Third-level Spell Caster, these four Spell Casters were nothing less remarkable than the Spell Casters of the same level from any usual spell casters’ organization.
Thus, Wizard Glen dreaded the arrival of these four Spell Casters.
However, it seemed that Wizard DeMarco was missing from the group. Instead, an unfamiliar young Spell Caster was in his place. Many did not recognize the young Spell Caster whose body was cloaked in a black robe.
Elena stared at the young Spell Caster who was covered with a black robe without blinking. She was way too familiar with that face.
“It’s Wizard Merlin!”
Elena said in a low voice with a complicated expression.
After hearing Elena’s confirmation, Wizard Glen’s expression darkened. With a low voice, he replied, “I didn’t expect Merlin to come to the ancient monument with these three old men. Unsurprisingly, he didn’t promise to come with us. But, hmph! Don’t these old men have their own intentions coming here? No matter what means Merlin has used to persuade these people to bring him to the ancient monument, how far can they protect him when they encounter dangerous situations there? Hehe.”
“Glen, the Four Alchemists always act together. Why is it that there are only three of them this time?”
Elena noticed that a powerful Spell Caster was missing from Wizard Sammir’s group. The Four Alchemists of Floating City consisted of four powerful Spell Casters – Wizard Sammir, Wizard Bren, Wizard Riesen, and also Wizard DeMarco.
Instead of Wizard DeMarco, Merlin was in their group.
Glen smirked. “Maybe that old guy didn’t come. Or he may have been trailing behind them. No matter what, it’s a troublesome situation with these four in the ancient monument!”
Initially, Glen was full of confidence about this trip. He even had the confidence to go up against an ordinary Third-level Spell Caster. However, Wizard Sammir and the others were different. Albeit being roaming wizards, they had their unique skills and their abilities were comparable to Third-level Spell Casters from spell casters’ organizations.
Thus, Wizard Glen wore a dark expression since Wizard Sammir and his group arrived and disrupted his position.
However, changes soon occurred to the situation. Even if the atrocity of ‘the Four Alchemists of Floating City’ was well-known, there were also some roaming wizards who felt more confident in a crowd, eyeing the mysterious ancient monument. They were not as fearful about Wizard Sammir and the others.
Despite Wizard Bren’s overbearing attitude, these roaming wizards did not leave at all. Instead, they stood in front of the ancient monument as they stared intently at Wizard Sammir and his group who had just arrived.
Wizard Sammir frowned and said in a low voice, “It seems like we haven’t shown ourselves in a long time. Some have already forgotten about us!”
“Hehe. Sammir, I think it’s time to do something about it!”
Wizard Bren let out a cruel laugh. Following that, intense fluctuations of Elements appeared from his body.
“Kill them!”
Wizard Sammir howled lowly when he saw the surrounding Spell Casters who still did not back down.
“Boom!”
Instantly, a large area of violent flames flared up and their Alchemy Creatures dashed into the large crowd of Spell Casters like beasts.
Their Alchemy Creatures ran into the crowd and began their crazy massacre. These Alchemy Creatures were extremely powerful as they were able to withstand any ordinary Third-level spell attacks! Besides, these Spell Casters were mostly Entrance-level or were just lucky enough to become First-level Spell Casters.
The Zero-level and First-level spells could not cause any significant damage upon the Alchemy Creatures. At once, the shrill cries of the crowd died.
“Incredible Alchemy Creatures!”
Merlin did not join in the attack; he only squinted his eyes a little as he observed Wizard Sammir and the others. When he fought Wizard Sammir’s Alchemy Creature, he did not notice how strong they were.
Especially when he possessed the Pandora Demon Ability, Glacial Finger, these Alchemy Creatures could not cause any damage to Merlin at all.
However, at this point, Merlin could see how terrifying these Alchemy Creatures were in front of these Entrance-level, First-level, and Second-level Spell Casters – they were almost dominating the entire fight. The crowds were simply being massacred right now by those Alchemy Creatures.
Ever since the battle had begun, Wizard Sammir and the others were at an advantageous position. Although there were a large number of Spell Casters around, they had no way to fight against Wizard Sammir and his group.
“Haha, my darling. Kill as many as you like!”
Wizard Bren sent out two of his Alchemy Creatures; they dashed in and out of the crowd like the wind. In addition, their defense was astounding; they had already killed numerous roaming wizards within a short period of time.
Such one-sided massacre had transpired under the condition that Wizard Sammir and the others had not cast their spells. It was crucial to know that they were all Third-level Spell Casters and they had constructed Third-level spells. If they cast their spells, these roaming wizards would not survive at all.
“Damn it. These old guys are too strong. It seems we have to retreat for now and wait for an opportunity to enter the ancient monument!”
Wizard Glen who was hiding in the crowd took a long glance at Wizard Sammir and the others. He seemed to be rather helpless. He knew that he would not have a chance of winning against Wizard Sammir and the group. He would be looking for his own death if he trailed behind them.
Right at this moment, Merlin suddenly raised his head, seemingly noticing something. At one glance, he spotted Wizard Glen and Elena.
“So Elena came as well!”
After he ensured that Elena and the others had retreated from the crowd silently, he nodded subtlety. Under the circumstance, it was pure stupidity to remain at this place to face the powerful attacks of Wizard Sammir and the others.
“Swoosh!”
Suddenly, a wind blade struck Merlin but it was resolved by Merlin’s Zero-level spell, Earth Guard, right before hitting him.
Someone could have finally noticed Merlin and figured that he was the weakest Spell Caster amongst the four. Thus, a majority of Spell Casters placed their gaze toward Merlin.
“Hehe. Baslow, the young Spell Caster is weaker. Let’s kill him first and vent out our anger!”
The old man Hodgdon said moodily.
Baslow shot a furious look at the old man Hodgdon, but he, too, stared closely at Merlin. He was indeed quite frustrated when he was thrown off by the Alchemy Creatures sent by Wizard Bren even though he was not injured.
However, Wizard Bren was a Third-level Spell Caster and Baslow was far inferior to him. Hence, sensing that Merlin’s aura was weaker and in addition to his youthful looks, Baslow was very attracted to what the old man Hodgdon had said.
“It’s fine that I’m inferior to these old men! But do you think you can enter the ancient monument that easily? A young Spell Caster who came from nowhere?”
Baslow yelled and attracted Merlin’s attention. Upon seeing that Baslow had grabbed Merlin’s attention, the old man Hodgdon had to stifle an angry curse.
“Baslow, such an idiot. What stupidity! If we attack him sneakily, we may kill this young Spell Caster easily. After all, he came with the three old men. Killing him can, in a way, disrupt their confidence and attitude! Now, it’s all ruined by you!”
The old man Hodgdon could never understand Baslow’s actions. He was always in favor of sneaky attacks. If he could not kill the person, he would immediately retreat; his actions made him an extremely troublesome opponent. Even in front of Wizard Sammir and the others, the old man Hodgdon still wanted to kill Merlin to lower the group’s morale.
However, all his plans were ruined by Baslow’s yell. The old man Hodgdon was truly speechless but he had to trail behind Baslow and cast his spells, blasting towards Merlin.
“Hmm? Why are all the spells heading towards Wizard Merlin?”
Wizard Sammir and the others suddenly noticed some abnormalities. Many Spell Casters were, in fact, casting spells that were heading straight toward Merlin. At once, like a gust of violent wind, spells whistled by and headed toward Merlin.
However, upon seeing a large number of spells blasting toward Merlin, Wizard Sammir did not show a slight hint of worry at all. Instead, he stopped his attacks and gazed upon Baslow and Hodgdon who started the attack pitifully with a hint of a smile on his face.
“Baslow and Hodgdon are considered powerful presences amongst the roaming wizards. Unfortunately, they’ll die right here…”
Wizard Sammir muttered in a low voice. The fact that Merlin had killed Wizard DeMarco with his Pandora Demon Ability was still confidential at this point. Only Wizard Sammir, Wizard Bren, and Wizard Riesen were aware of this matter.
Only the three of them knew how terrifying Merlin was. Merlin was the strongest person amongst the group. The old man Hodgdon and Baslow were simply courting their own deaths when they messed with Merlin.
Wizard Sammir and the others’ strange expressions had caught the attention of the old man Hodgdon who was always suspicious of others. However, he did not understand what was wrong with the situation hence, he continued to cast his spells toward Merlin.
The old man Hodgdon and Baslow had already planned their retreat route. Once they killed Merlin, they would immediately run away at their quickest speed to not give any chance for Wizard Sammir and the others to chase after them.
“Boom!”
Spells all over the sky had blasted frantically upon Merlin just like a storm. In the blink of an eye, Merlin’s figure had disappeared from sight…
