Chapter 109: 108 They will suffer for it The ogre group attacking the escort team was actually quite threatening, not only in their large numbers but also because each individual’s Level was above 30. If anyone else had encountered them, it would likely have been a disaster. In these wild mountains, this ogre group was akin to an overlord, with even Great Demons of over Level 60 wary of provoking them, let alone adventurers. Virtually no adventurer team would dare to take on such a vast ogre group. Unfortunately, this time it was the ogre group itself that foolishly picked a fight with the escort team coming from Marquis Mula’s Domain, Lamijion. In this escort team, except for Leon and Udilis, whose Levels were somewhat lower, not even reaching 30, the rest of the members—including Beren’s Knight Order, and the adventurer team led by Vivian and Alis, as well as Magre—were all Level 30 and above. Among them, Beren’s Level was nearing seventy, Tielle was just a Level away from sixty, and both Vivian and Alis were Level 50; their Levels were all quite high. The rest, such as Lu Muya and Merica, along with some elite knights and adventurers, were also Level 40 and above. ... As for Magre, he too had a high Level of 38, and, equipped with nearly all rare and valuable gear, he might not be inferior to Lu Muya in hand-to-hand combat. He truly could be considered powerful. Even Udilis, though her Level wasn’t high, was the daughter of a Magic Tool Shop, equipped with many Magic Tools, and in a real fight, her abilities could be very formidable. In the escort team, the only one who probably couldn’t contribute much was Leon. No, even Leon’s “connections” were quite extensive, with Udilis following him; he likely also had some Magic Tools hidden away as resources. And then there was Shane, who, in the eyes of others, was just a Level 10 rookie Adventurer. He had now, relying on a so-called “Magic Tool,” become the most dazzling presence on the battlefield. This escort team might have had its uncertainties against the large forces of the Old Demon Clan Faction, but against a Level 30 ogre group, even if it wasn’t as easy as slicing through a melon, it could be described as swiftly cutting through tangled hemp. Therefore, the sudden monster attack was declared over after twenty minutes. As a result, naturally, the ogre group was utterly defeated, with all remaining ogres being vanquished except for the few that had fled upon realizing the situation was dire. Afterward, under Beren’s command, everyone began to clean up the battlefield. Vivian’s Team also gathered, chatting while cleaning up. “This time, you’ve used that ‘Magic Tool’ to fight again,” Vivian said, unimpressed. “Why not show off your own strength in front of others occasionally? If you carry on like this, you’ll be seen as someone who just flaunts that ‘Magic Tool,’ you know?” Clearly, after leaving Lamiqion, Shane’s continual fighting with “Magic Tools” had caused some grumbling within the escort team. Shane knew well that, with his Level so low, yet being so active on the battlefield and achieving much more glorious victories than those higher-Level knights and adventurers, it would surely cause dissatisfaction among some. But... “I have no choice, I don’t have a suitable weapon.” Shane spread his hands. This time, except for the Holy Sword, which was still hidden in his pack, Shane hadn’t brought any weapons. The Broad Blade Sword had shattered during that “Magical Sword” incident. This made Shane realize that ordinary weapons probably weren’t suitable for his use. Therefore, Shane decided to look for a Magic Weapon that suited him in the Royal Capital. As for Lamiqion, although there were Magic Weapons there, they were not only exorbitantly expensive but their performance also didn’t match up to the advanced ones from the Royal Capital. Shane naturally did not want to waste money and decided not to buy them. After all, if he really needed to, Shane could simply borrow a weapon from someone in the escort team. Otherwise, having learned the Skill of “Hand-to-Hand Combat,” and armed with formidable magic, he decided to just use magic to blast his way through. It was only because the power of his magic was too frightening that Shane acted under the guise of using a “Magic Tool.” Therefore, in the eyes of others, Shane was strutting around with “Magic Tools,” completely unaware that those were all the results of Shane’s own hard work. Shane didn’t care. After all... “There will come a time when they get theirs.” Shane uttered these playful words. “What are you planning to do now?” Vivian asked wearily, “Don’t mess around. We’re on a mission, remember.” “Relax.” Shane made a decidedly unconvincing promise, then added, “Never mind me, Tielle and Merica’s performance has been impressive too. It feels like your strength has improved a lot since I last saw you. It’s not just my imagination, right?” By the end, Shane had turned to face Tielle and Merica. Vivian likewise looked their way. “Indeed, it does seem like you both have improved,” Vivian said with a genuine smile, asking, “Have you made any new gains?” At these words, Tielle and Merica both paused what they were doing. “There’s a bit of that,” Tielle glanced at Shane and said indifferently, “Provoked by a certain someone, I’ve stepped up my training recently, and unless something unexpected happens, I should be close to leveling up.” This statement couldn’t help but draw everyone’s attention. “Tielle is leveling up?” Lu Muya expressed her surprise and delight, “Does that mean Tielle is almost Level 60 now?” “Mhm.” Tielle nodded, speaking as if it wasn’t about her own affairs, “I can feel it’s near. In a few days, or at most a month, I should be able to reach Level 60.” This was no small matter. “Once you reach Level 60, you’ll be able to become a Sixth Rank Adventurer, just one step away from the highest Seventh Rank Adventurer,” Vivian mused, “By then, a sixteen-year-old Sixth Rank Adventurer will surely cause a sensation across the Kingdom, right?” “Really?” Shane seemed surprised, “Is it that amazing?” “Of course.” Vivian replied without hesitation, “Even if you look across the entire Human Realm, there’s only one person who reached Level 60 at the age of sixteen. Once Tielle does it too, it proves she’s not at all inferior to That Person. If you knew how special That Person is, you’d understand how astounding Tielle’s achievement is.” After speaking, Vivian turned her gaze to Merica. “What about you, Merica? Are you about to level up too?” Vivian’s words drew everyone’s eyes to Merica. “Me... me?” Merica started to stutter, even hesitating a bit. “What’s the matter, Merica?” Lu Muya immediately voiced her confusion. “No, it’s nothing.” Merica was still hesitating, finally speaking in a very uncertain tone, “It’s just that I don’t feel like I’m about to level up, but for some reason, recently, I feel like my Magic Power has been increasing.” These words surprised everyone.
