Chapter 45: 044 “Vivian’s Team Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Vivian’s team regarded the Magic Source as their goal, which was not much different from a pond in terms of size or scale. However, the water inside was indeed not ordinary but rather the solidified form of Magic Power. In essence, it was still Magic Power, which emitted a hazy glow, making it look like a pond shrouded in a layer of mist, quite pleasing to the eye. “If there were a place like this in the previous world, it would instantly become a tourist attraction, drawing a large crowd and making a fortune, wouldn’t it?” The moment Shane saw the Magic Source, such a thought came to mind, indicating that the appearance of the Magic Source was indeed quite pleasing. “However, considering the presence of demons around, unless they have a death wish, no one would think of coming to such a place for tourism and sightseeing, right?” Otherwise, the task of collecting the spring water would not be considered an assignment and left to adventurers. It was because the locations of Magic Sources were generally overrun with demons that people were unable to recklessly collect the spring water, leaving it only for adventurers to execute. Otherwise, all the Magic Sources would probably be drained, and they would never be left, as they are now, for adventurers to complete as tasks and earn rewards. Moreover, collecting the spring water from Magic Sources required skill. “Because the spring water is solidified Magic Power, it not only requires special containers to hold it, but if it leaves the Magic Source, it will re-evaporate into ordinary Magic Power and dissipate into the atmosphere. So extracting and storing the spring water must be assisted with specialized tools,” Vivian explained to Shane. Meanwhile, Tielle and Lu Muya retrieved a set of equipment reminiscent of a chemistry experiment from their luggage, handing it over to Merica, who was responsible for operating it to collect spring water from the Magic Source. “Spring water extracted through specific steps can be stored for a certain time in special containers. The duration it can be stored is also related to the Magic Source’s scale; small Magic Sources’ spring water can be stored for about three days, medium about seven days, and large can be stored for a month.” Vivian explained thoroughly, unraveling a mystery for Shane. At first, Shane thought, given the usefulness of the spring water from the Magic Source, why not make a big move and transport it all at once? If the storage time was limited, it became understandable. This also dispelled Shane’s idea of draining the Magic Source completely and selling the spring water in town. This was a regret, he had to admit. Furthermore, the steps to extract the spring water were rather complex. Even for Merica, a Mage with the highest affinity for Magic, it required a considerable amount of time. During this period, the appearance of demons was inevitable. “Ah!” With a sharp cry, a shadow slowly emerged from the forest. “Alert!” Tielle was the first to spot the enemy, loudly warning everyone, prompting everyone to tense up and face the enemy. Shane similarly drew the Broad Blade Sword from his waist, standing quietly beside the group, like a low-key new recruit. Of course, Shane thought to himself... (It’s really tough to spot an enemy and not be able to give a warning.) With a full level of Enemy Detection Skill, Shane was naturally the first to discover the enemy in a true sense, but he couldn’t alert the others, only reacting until now. The enemy that appeared wielded a Longsword and Round Shield, its body covered with green scales, possessing a reptile-like head and tail, with a cloth wrapped around its waist—humanoid demons. “Lizardmen?” “Don’t worry.” But Vivian was exceptionally calm, without any rescue action. The next second... “Clang!” With a crisp clash of metal, the Lizardman’s Longsword was knocked away. Facing the struck-down Longsword, Lu Muya directly punched it, knocking the Longsword away. Upon closer inspection, both of Lu Muya’s hands were equipped with metal gloves at some unknown time. “Boom!” With a dull noise, Lu Muya punched out, sending the weaponless Lizardman hurtling away, stirring up a fierce gust. The scene was quite eye-catching, leaving Shane stunned. Instead, Vivian, utterly unsurprised, spoke out. “Lu Muya, our team’s vanguard, race is from the Dog Race among the Beastman, possessing extraordinary smell and the naturally powerful physique of the Beastman, hence uses Hand-to-Hand Combat and Body Enhancement as her primary combat methods, specializing in these two skills, both leveled up to Level 6, currently at Level 44, a Fourth Rank adventurer.” As Vivian’s words fell, Lu Muya had already darted towards a second Lizardman, once again knocking away its weapon and sending it skyward with a punch. Immediately... “Burn Off!” Merica raised her Magic Wand, channeling Magic Power, causing the crystal on the Magic Wand to bloom with light. “Boom!” The airborne Lizardman erupted in flames, instantly incinerating it to ashes. “Merica, our team’s Mage, race as you can see is an Elf. Because Elves are close to nature with extremely high affinity for Magic and magic, they are naturally born Mages. Even among peers of the same class, Merica’s magic is top-notch. She is proficient in Flame Series and Ice Series magic. Aside from the must-learn skills for Mages, Chanting and Meditation, Merica used all her Skill Points on Magic·Fire and Magic·Ice, leveling them to Level 4, thus able to use Intermediate Magic in these two series, currently at Level 42, also a Fourth Rank adventurer.” Saying this, Vivian suddenly turned and slammed into the side. “Boom!” A Lizardman that silently approached was fiercely knocked away by Vivian’s Tower Shield, slammed against a tree trunk, becoming barely alive. “As for me, you should already know. As the team captain, I am a defense-type vanguard, with skills such as One-Handed Sword, Shield, Light Equipment, Deflection, Taunt, and Damage Reduction, currently at Level 50, Fifth Class Adventurer.” Vivian turned her head, showing a smile to Shane. “Next, let me introduce you to our team’s strongest, and also the foremost genius within Lamijion.” As if riding Vivian’s words, a petite figure whisked past everyone.
