The Genius Mage - Chapter 125
Chapter 125: Jill Injured
Audrey subconsciously leaned to the side, but unfortunately, she was a step too late. The side of her face was slashed open.
“Audrey!” Jill cried out in surprise. She turned her head back, but she did not realize that she had exposed her weakness.
Audrey gritted her teeth and endured the pain. Her gaze moved to Xavier, only to realize that he had already flown toward them at an unknown speed.
And his target was Jill, who had exposed her weakness.
“Jill, be careful!” Audrey raised her hand, wanting to create a barrier that could defend against attacks for Jill. However, her opponent’s reaction speed was too fast. He had actually directly surpassed her ice wall, she slashed down viciously on Jill’s shoulder.
“Ah!” Jill screamed and fell to the ground. Kate hurriedly went forward to receive the attack. However, it was obvious that he did not have as much combat experience as her opponent. After receiving a few attacks, she quickly fell into a disadvantageous position.
Morris, who was behind her, was clearly not as smooth as he appeared to be. As a girl, Daisy’s body movements and agility were much better than his.
Although they could barely withstand it, it was obvious that if they continued to waste time like this, they would definitely lose.
Looking at Jill, who was already lying in a pool of blood, Audrey gritted her teeth and raised her hand to wipe the blood off her face.
She activated the elemental energy in her surroundings and swept it over crazily. Tiny droplets of water condensed into ice, forming a fortress around them that was gradually formed from ice.
For a moment, even the sky changed. The dark clouds began to rain. The surrounding environment seemed to have been meticulously prepared for Audrey.
“Kate, Morris, stop,” Audrey said coldly.
Her azure eyes seemed to emit a cold light at this moment. Xavier and Daisy exchanged a glance and decisively flashed out, not coming into direct contact with the barrier.
However, it was clear that they had done the right thing. A few leaves that had fallen from the sky had been torn apart after coming into contact with such tiny drops of water. One could imagine how terrifying the consequences would be if a person came into contact with them.
“Let’s stop here for now. I’ll definitely not let you off the hook the next time we meet.” Audrey’s voice was wrapped in combat aura as she attacked Xavier.
Xavier gritted his teeth and endured the blow. He sneered and was about to retort when he saw the wind wall in front of him begin to crumble. A moment later, the four people who had been standing there a moment ago had disappeared without a trace.
Only the blood stains proved that they had existed before.
Daisy’s expression became serious.
“Teleportation? I didn’t expect them to know such a skill. It seems that we have really underestimated them.”
Xavier nodded in agreement. “I just don’t know how far they can teleport. We’ll go to the boss and check it out later. They’re probably still nearby.”
After all, teleporting was a skill that consumed a lot of stamina. Moreover, it was not something that an ordinary person could learn and master. If she could learn a skill like teleporting, it meant that her strength was definitely one of the best among her peers.
“Hehe, as expected, Audrey isn’t a complete loser like the legends say. She’s definitely hiding something and doesn’t want us to know.” Daisy sneered. “Let’s go find boss first. They’re probably waiting anxiously over there.”
Xavier agreed.
At this moment, Audrey had already brought them to a place three kilometers away. Anyway, such a skill consumed too much magic power, causing her legs to go weak and she almost fell to the ground as soon as she landed.
Fortunately, she managed to hold on to the tree beside her in time to stabilize her body.
Audrey felt the dizziness and took a few gentle breaths to try to calm herself down.
She was not familiar with this skill, so she could only teleport to the place where she remembered the location. Therefore, she went straight to the place where she had asked Alice to wait for her.
However, this place was not completely safe yet, so they needed to quickly treat Jill’s wounds and move in the opposite direction so that they could shake off those troublesome people as soon as possible.
Alice was startled by the sudden appearance of the few people. When she saw Jill, who was lying on the ground with no idea whether she was alive or dead, she screamed in fright.
“Audrey! Are you alright!?” Kate hurriedly looked over.
Audrey shook her head. “I’m fine. Let’s quickly check on Jill’s condition. Her condition is even more serious than mine.”
At this moment, Jill had already fallen into a coma. The wound caused by the blow just now was deep and heavy. She did not even have time to defend herself before she was directly cut on the shoulder.
“Oh my god, it’s so serious.” Alice quickly went up to her, took out a potion from her bag, and poured it into Jill’s mouth.
“Did you meet them head-on? Why are you hurt so badly?” Alice quickly asked.
Morris raised his hand and slapped the tree next to him hard. “Those people are like mad dogs. They bite as soon as they come up. They don’t give people a chance to communicate at all!”
The tree was on the verge of collapsing from his slap. It was obvious how much strength he had used.
Audrey squatted down to bandage Jill’s wound. Jill’s breathing had calmed down. It looked like her condition was much better than before.
Fortunately, they left quickly. Otherwise, it would have been really dangerous.
“We need to move quickly. We can’t stay here for long,” Audrey said coldly.
Since Morris had been discovered by them just now, it meant that they must have some way to find their tracks.
If they stayed here for a while longer, it would be more dangerous. The best plan was to move directly and leave the group far behind.
