300 meters away from the south gate.
Karl walked down the teleportation array and was met with a group of people. He was very familiar with the leader.
It was his classmate, Rimon.
At this time, Rimon had also become a one-star mage.
Karl was not surprised. After all, Rimon’s father was a mage.
With his father’s help, it was natural that he could quickly infuse the elements into his body and become a mage.
“Hey, Karl. You’re going out of town?”
The moment Rimon saw Karl, his good mood was ruined and his face darkened.
Karl glanced at him, then looked away. He walked past Rimon without a word.
They were no longer of the same world.
If he were to lower himself to the same level as Rimon, it would appear as though he was very crass.
“Damn it! Scram!”
Rimon was livid that he had been ignored.
“That kid Karl is still so arrogant. Adrien isn’t here now. Do you want us to teach him a lesson?”
A young man spoke beside him.
These were all members of the nobility and Rimon’s circle of friends.
They were well aware of the feud between Rimon and Karl.
“Karl is different from before. He has become a mage, and he has elite magical talent!”
Someone whispered.
Instantly, everyone went deathly silent.
After that, no one mentioned anything about teaching Karl a lesson anymore.
Teach a mage with elite magical talent a lesson?
Was he crazy?
Rimon, on the other hand, stared intently at Karl’s back. His cold eyes flickered. No one knew what was in his mind.
“Honorable Mage, are you leaving the city?”
Karl came to the south city gate and showed the mage badge in his hand to the soldiers who guarded the city gate. When he saw the badge, the soldier became extremely respectful.
“Yes.” Karl nodded.
“Alright, please wait a moment.”
The soldier responded and opened the city gate.
Karl walked out of the city.
…
The situation in Rost City was rather special.
After all, they had once been in the vicinity of one of the Devil’s Dens. There used to be ferocious magical beasts everywhere.
But more than ten years ago, the Devil’s Den had been suppressed by an Archmagi.
Most of the magical beasts outside the city had been eliminated.
Only a few low-level magical beasts were left. They were regarded by the upper echelons of the dynasty as training for low-star mages.
For that reason, they did not clear out all the magical beasts.
It was also because of the magical beasts that ordinary people were not allowed to leave the city.
The caravans provided people with their daily necessities.
Outside the city.
Karl took a deep breath.
He had lived for eighteen years, and this was the first time he had left the city to go into the wilderness.
The wilderness wasn’t as desolate as he had imagined. On the contrary, the trees here towered into the sky, and the shrubs were as tall as a person. They had dense leaves and branches.
In the depths of the lush trees, the roars of magical beasts could be heard from time to time.
This showed that the wilderness was not a peaceful place.
…
Karl soon encountered his first magical beast.
Squeak squeak…
It was a magical beast that looked like a mouse, but it was muscular and twice as big as Karl.
This magical beast was completely black. Its two front teeth were thin and long, like two sharp swords. Its eyes shone with a crimson light.
“An adult Vampire Rat, a Level One magical beast. It likes to be alone and has a violent personality. It likes to dig open its prey with its sharp front teeth and then suck its prey’s blood.”
The moment Karl saw this magical beast, information about it appeared in his mind.
He got the information from the book on magical beasts.
While Karl sized up the Vampire Rat, the Vampire Rat stared at him.
Soon, it took a step forward. Its muscular body was like a small tank as it rushed towards Karl.
Its crimson eyes flashed greedily.
It was going to drink all of the human’s blood!
Huff!
The Vampire Rat’s mad dash created a gale. When Karl met it, they were nearly 30 meters apart.
The distance was now rapidly closing.
Karl looked at the approaching Vampire Rat. Although this was the first time he faced a magical beast, he did not panic much.
He took a deep breath to calm himself down.
When the Vampire Rat was only seven to eight meters away from him, Karl raised one of his hands. Electricity arced between his fingers and then converged on his palm.
Electricity arced between his fingers and then converged on his palm.
“Boom!”
With a thunderous roar, a thick bolt of lightning extended from his palm.
It hit the Vampire Rat.
“Squeak squeak squeak!”
The Vampire Rat stopped running and let out a few sharp and ear-piercing sounds.
This attack failed to kill the Vampire Rat.
Karl was not surprised.
This was because he only wanted to practice his attack and did not use his magic skill, Calamity of Destruction.
This was just a simple attempt to communicate with the lightning element between heaven and earth and unleash a probing attack.
He had expected that the Vampire Rat would not die.
At this moment.
The Vampire Rat was startled by the lightning strike.
It had thought that it would be able to kill this human with ease. It did not expect that this human could actually release lightning?
Although the Vampire Rat was only a Level One Magical Beast, it had some intelligence.
It realized that something was wrong and decided to leave.
At this moment.
It looked at Karl, who was opposite, as golden electric arcs appeared all over Karl’s body.
The electric arcs were like swimming dragons that quickly gathered on Karl’s raised palm.
In an instant, a golden bolt of lightning shot out. It sizzled as it shot towards the Vampire Rat.
Calamity of Destruction!
“Squeak!”
All the hair on the Vampire Demon Rat’s body stood on end as it let out a shrill howl.
It could sense death.
It turned around and tried to run away.
However, no matter how fast it was, it could not be faster than lightning.
Boom!
With a loud crash, the golden lightning struck the Vampire Rat.
The massive Vampire Rat disappeared from Karl’s sight.
Even the surrounding trees were destroyed.
“This… is so powerful.”
At that moment, Karl felt his scalp go numb. His previous attack on the Vampire Rat had only stopped it’s charge.
He probably didn’t even hurt it.
But this time, he used the Calamity of Destruction.
It had reduced the Vampire Rat into ashes!
Moreover, he could feel that when the lightning struck its body, the Vampire Rat did try to resist.
But in the face of the Calamity of Destruction, its desperate resistance was useless.
It was as expected of an S-class magic skill.
It was powerful!
Still, although S-class magic skills were powerful, the amount of spiritual energy they consumed was similarly enormous.
He had used the Calamity of Destruction once and it had drained a tenth of his spiritual energy.
In other words…
In his current state, the Calamity of Destruction could only be used nine more times before he completely collapsed.
