The Genius Mage

Chapter 356: Beasts Appear and Disappear

These words reminded Audrey. She chuckled and was about to walk toward the study when she suddenly sensed a dangerous aura. Audrey’s expression changed instantly.

In the next second, she changed her pace and left the otherworldly realm in a flash.

“Hey, you go…” Before Meatball could finish his words, Audrey had already disappeared.

Audrey walked out of the tent and saw the chaotic battle outside.

Klein, Hobart, and Adrian were fighting against several wild beasts. Audrey’s expression was heavy. There had not been any movements in the first half of the night, so why were there so many wild beasts appearing at this moment.

The attacks of wild beasts were not strong to them, but with so many of them, it was enough to deal with them.

Audrey looked at them uneasily. Seeing that Hobart was about to be injured by the wild boar behind him, Audrey hurriedly stepped forward and used an energy ball to repel the wild boar. She stood back-to-back with Hobart.

“Their attacks aren’t strong. I don’t know why so many of them suddenly appeared together.” Hobart’s thoughts were very much in line with Audrey’s.

“They probably smelled our scent and came to look for food,” Audrey explained calmly, but this was just a guess.

Upon hearing this, Hobart snorted coldly and said, “We didn’t treat them as food. Instead, they want to use us as food. They really overestimate themselves!”

Audrey could not help but laugh.

As they spoke, the two of them had unknowingly repelled many wild beasts. They also gathered together with Klein and Adrian. The four of them were surrounded by all sorts of wild beasts.

“What should we do? Should we kill them all? We won’t be able to finish them until next month, right?” Klein said with a frown. There was a hint of ridicule in his words.

Wild beasts were innocent. Audrey did not want to exterminate them all and turn this place into a sea of corpses.

“We’ll just have to force them back,” Audrey said calmly after thinking for a moment.

Hearing this, the three of them did not understand. The beast’s motive was so strong. How could they force it back?

“Great Goddess of ice and snow, please grant me the power to intimidate all living things.” Audrey chanted softly and released a powerful magic power that made people shudder. Only then did the three of them understand what Audrey meant by forcing it back.

As long as they released a sufficiently strong power, the beast would naturally cower in fear.

Hence, the three of them released the Dou Qi in their bodies.

The ferocious wild beasts, who were intent on attacking, revealed a sense of fear at this moment. They hesitated and did not advance.

Most of the wild beasts were afraid of fire. Hence, Audrey condensed another fireball in her palm to deter them. As expected, the wild beasts became even more afraid and retreated.

After taking a few steps back, they turned their heads and left one after another.

Audrey and the others heaved a sigh of relief. After cleaning up the place, the four of them were no longer sleepy. They took advantage of the break of dawn to leave the place.

The sun gradually rose, and the rising temperature made them feel a little uncomfortable. Audrey was the embodiment of the goddess of ice and snow. She had a cold nature, so she was naturally not afraid.

However, Klein and the others were different.

Audrey had no choice but to secretly cast a spell to make the three of them feel cool.

“It’s said that the valley of the potion king is hidden in a forest. It’s very difficult to find it.” On the way, Adrian suddenly changed the topic, causing them to ponder.

Audrey only knew the approximate location of the valley of the potion king, so she could not help but feel melancholic.

“We’ll talk about it when we reach the forest,” Audrey replied in a low voice after thinking for a moment.

The rest of the journey was smooth. After two days and two nights, they finally arrived at the southernmost part of Spark City. It was a humid and hot forest with very few residents.

“Is this the forest outside the Herb King Valley?” Klein asked as he looked at the dense forest in front of him.

“Probably. The forest outside the Herb King Valley is very particular. From the inside to the outside, the trees are all different. This is the forest,” Adrian answered, slightly surprising Audrey. She did not expect him to know so much about the Herb King Valley.

Because the carriage could not enter the forest, they had to enter on foot.

The forest was very large. After entering, they seemed to be unable to find their way. In order to prevent them from getting lost, Audrey had specially marked the path they took.

“Herb King Valley is hidden in the forest. It’s very secretive. How do we find it?” Hobart asked in puzzlement. If they were to search aimlessly in the forest, it would probably take them a few more days.

Audrey naturally would not allow time to be wasted like this.

There were many medicinal herbs in Herb King Valley. Usually, they would make all sorts of medicinal herbs under the sun. This was the best way to break through the next level.

“Herb King Valley is on the sunny side. It’s a place with plenty of sunlight. The land is rich, and there are many herbs planted there.” After some thought, a confident glint flashed across Audrey’s eyes as the corners of her mouth curled up.

“I see.” Hobart nodded in delight. He looked up at the sun above his head and pointed in a direction. “That’s in that direction.”

At the same time, Audrey’s gaze landed in that direction. This was the place with the most sunlight. The trees in that direction were dense and well-proportioned, making it easier for them to receive sunlight.
