Chapter 23: The Girl Named Alice (Part 1)

  On the way back, the demons encountered were getting weaker and weaker. When Lin Lei entered the outer periphery area, most of the demons he encountered were only level three or four, posing no threat at all. However, even so, Lin Lei still didn't dare to completely let his guard down.

  Dellin Kowert and Lin Lei walked side by side, but Dellin Kowert had always been worried in his heart. The current Lin Lei has a steady atmosphere all over his body, but when he takes action, he is absolutely merciless. Those eyes also have a cold indifference that rejects people from afar.

  Dellin Kowert still remembered that before entering the Magic Beast Mountain Range, Lin Lei's eyes had a sincerity that made it easy to believe in him.

  After a long deliberation in his heart, Deling Kworte finally transmitted his soul voice: "Lin Lei."

  Lin Lei, who was swiftly and nimbly darting between the mountains and forests, turned his head involuntarily and looked at Deling Kwovart with a puzzled expression: "Grandfather Deling, what's wrong?"

  Dellin Kowert nodded and said seriously, "Lin Lei, before entering the Magic Beast Mountain Range, I reminded you that people's hearts are separated by their stomachs, and you can't easily believe others. Let you keep a vigilant heart towards others."

  Lin Lei nodded and said: "Grandfather De Lin, what you said is very right. Indeed, one cannot easily trust others. If I had believed your words earlier, perhaps I wouldn't have been stabbed in the abdomen."

  Dellin Kowert shook his head and said, "Although you can't easily believe others, you also can't be too vigilant. Think about it now, how will you interact with others in the future? Remember, when dealing with others, you can't be too cold or too trusting. Trust is built up gradually through long-term communication, don't be easily swayed by what others say."

  Lin Lei was very clever, and had read a lot of books at home and at Ernst College. When Grandpa De Lin said so, he also understood a little in his heart. However, the cruel life for two months, the cruelty of human nature that Lin Lei had already seen clearly, it's really hard to make him believe in people.

  "Understood, Grandpa De Lin." Lin Lei nodded and said.

  Dellin Kworte sighed inwardly, but Dellin Kworte was also relieved: "Fortunately, Lin Lei still has Xiaoyingmao 'Bei Bei' accompanying him, and there are some good friends from Enst Academy. At least he won't become too indifferent."

  Dellin Kowert still remembered that thousands of years ago, when the Pangu Empire was still in existence, a white-clothed man who was also one of the strong men of the Pangu Empire's Sacred Domain. The white-clothed man was a powerful Sword Saint and at the same time an extremely reclusive person.

  "Grandpa Deling, what do you think Father's reaction will be when he finds out about all these magical beast cores?" Lin Lei suddenly looked at Deling Kowert and asked with a smile, his eyes filled with anticipation of getting praised by his father.

  Just like a child who has done well on an exam and is waiting for their father's praise.

  "Lin Lei, are you prepared to give all these magical beast cores to your father?" Deling Kwovar asked with a smile.

  Lin Lei nodded and said, "Of course, these demon beast cores are worth over 70,000 gold coins, and I only need to not go hungry. A few dozen gold coins a year is enough for me. And Father manages the entire family, and also has to bear the cost of Little Worton's tuition, so these demon beast cores should naturally be given to Father."

  Lin Lei didn't want to sell the Magic Beast Crystal Core himself, after all, he had no experience in buying and selling, and he might be cheated without even realizing it.

  "Haha, I believe your father will jump for joy." Deling Kworte said with a big laugh.

  Lin Lei couldn't help but smile and immediately quickened his pace along the way back.

  Third and fourth-level magical beasts, Lin Lei was too lazy to kill, quickly and agilely shuttling through the mountains of magical beasts. When Lin Lei jumped over a small stream, he heard fierce roars of magical beasts and human shouts in the distance of the mountain forest.

  "Huh? Anyone who dares to come to the Monster Mountain Range is at least a level 5 warrior, and the outer areas are generally inhabited by level 3 or 4 monsters. How can the battle be so intense?" Lin Lei was somewhat puzzled.

  Inside the Beast Mountain Range, where fifth and sixth level magical beasts roam, and seventh level ones occasionally appear, such a tragic battle may occur. However, on the outskirts, such things rarely happen, and battles are usually very quick.

  With a kick of both legs, he jumped up seven or eight meters and easily jumped between the big trees, arriving at the side of the battlefield in just a moment.

  Standing on the tree branch, Lin Lei looked quietly ahead.

  Only two boys and two girls were seen fiercely fighting a bloodthirsty war boar. One of the boys, wearing white armor, was loudly shouting commands: "Second, don't run around randomly, protect Alice. I'll lure this stupid pig, Nia, don't panic, aim your arrow at its weak point."

  These four people obviously have very little experience and even panic when they encounter danger, only the white-armored youth leading them appears more stable.

  "These four are really bold, the white-armored youth should be a level 5 warrior, but the other three, at most level 4. Lin Lei shook his head in his heart, the other three didn't even reach level 5 and came to the Magic Beast Mountain Range, they're really bold."

  Another red-haired youth also shouted in panic: "Kala, didn't you say that the outer periphery only had third and fourth level magic beasts? This is a fifth-level magic beast!"

  The leader of the four, a young man named 'Kalan', also felt helpless. As a fifth-level warrior, he was leading three good friends to trial in the outermost area of the Magic Beast Mountain Range, and it shouldn't be too dangerous, but unexpectedly they encountered a fifth-level magic beast.

  "Whoosh!" Dozens of sharp spears suddenly emerged from the ground around the Bloodthirsty War Boar, with three even piercing its body, but were snapped off by the boar's thick hide.

  "Roar!!"

  The Bloodthirsty War Boar immediately let out a furious roar and charged towards the only magician among the four. The Bloodthirsty War Boar's charge was incredibly fierce, with flames occasionally shooting out of its nostrils, causing another young man to become frightened all of a sudden.

  "Duck, Alice, duck!" Carl yelled loudly.

  The girl called Alice had a head of golden long hair, and a pair of eyes that were as hazy as a dream. At this time, Alice was also panicked and wanted to escape, but the bloodthirsty war pig was after all a fifth-level demon beast, its intelligence was not high, but it was much stronger than a wild beast.

  The bloodthirsty war boar charged at Alice.

  As the Bloodthirsty War Boar charged towards her, Alice was terrified and tried to run away quickly, but she was tripped by a vine on the ground and fell head over heels. When she looked back, the Bloodthirsty War Boar with its red eyes was charging towards her like a madman. With Alice's frail body, she would probably be trampled to death by the Bloodthirsty War Boar in one stomp.

  Alice was terrified and stunned for a moment.

  The other two boys and a girl were also frightened out of their wits, they didn't even have time to save anyone.

  "Alice!" The young man named Kuran could only shout in anguish and anxiety. Although he was a fifth-level warrior, it was clear that his experience was far inferior.

  "Hmph!"

  Seven or eight sharp protruding spears radiating a dense, earthy yellow light suddenly emerged, and the fifth-level magical beast "Bloodthirsty War Boar" was stabbed by two of them into its hard muscles, with fresh blood flowing out from its abdomen.

  What a pity...

  The spear only pierced into the muscle and did not injure any internal organs.

  "ROAR!!" The bloodthirsty war boar let out a painful screech as it raised its head.

  "Whoosh!" A black short blade came from above, like lightning, directly stabbing into the Bloodthirsty War Boar's eye socket. The eyeball burst, and the black short blade pierced through the entire skull. The Bloodthirsty War Boar couldn't help but tremble its body in agony, like a sieve, and stopped moving after just a moment.

  Kala, Niya, Ailsa and others were frightened with their hearts racing.

  They watched as the sturdy youth in blue warrior armor skillfully extracted the Bloodthirsty War Boar's crystal core, and then turned to leave. But Kalan was the first of the four to come back to his senses, immediately shouting loudly: "Hey, friend, wait a minute!"
