The Genius Mage - Chapter 355
“Then I’ll go too. I have nothing to do in the Knights Legion anyway,” Adrian and Hobart echoed from the side.
After the three of them finished speaking, they looked at Cole and Kate. They looked hesitant. After a long while, Kate slowly said, “I might not be able to go. My father wants me to go back for a few days.”
Ferri’s request?
Audrey frowned slightly. Ferri and those Elders did not have any good intentions either. She did not know what would happen when Kate returned this time.
“Alright, then you have to be more careful.” She sighed softly in her heart. Her tone was solemn as if the Davis family was even more terrifying than going to the Herb King Valley.
However, it was indeed the case for Audrey.
Every noble in the Davis family had their own ulterior motives. They fought for power and benefits, making others look down on them. It was fine if her lordship was like this, but it still involved the next generation. Audrey could not help but feel helpless and sorrowful for Kate.
“What about you? What’s the matter?” Klein looked at Cole and asked.
“It’s nothing much. It’s just that I accidentally damaged my internal energy during my cultivation yesterday. I was afraid that I would drag you down.” Cole lowered his head, his face filled with guilt.
Hearing this, Audrey’s expression instantly tensed up. She quickly reached out and grabbed Cole’s arm to sense the internal energy in his body.
To cultivators, external injuries were not scary. However, if the source of their internal energy was damaged, they would need to recover for a period of time even if they had healing potions.
Fortunately, Cole’s injuries were not particularly serious. However, for his own good, Audrey still hoped that he could rest well.
“It’s alright. I’ll give you this bottle of potion. You can rest well here during this period of time. You’ll recover in no time.” As she spoke, Audrey took out a bottle of advanced recovery potion. This might be of some help to Cole.
“Thank you, Audrey.”
Audrey nodded.
Since everyone had already planned out what they would do in the future, there was nothing more to say. They could not delay the matter of going to Herb King Valley. After giving a few instructions to Klein and the others, Audrey returned to her dormitory.
The next day.
The four of them gathered at the entrance of the Knights Legion and set off for the Herb King Valley together.
As the journey was long, Audrey had specially prepared a carriage. At least it would help them reduce their stamina consumption.
“Get in the carriage,” Audrey said faintly with a chuckle when she saw the astonished looks on the three of them.
Klein and the others immediately got in the carriage.
Audrey did not bring anyone with her, so she drove the carriage herself. She had carefully selected this horse. It had good patience and was fast.
“Audrey, I didn’t expect you to know how to ride a horse,” The three people sitting in the back seat teased with a smile.
“It’s not that simple,” Audrey replied. She lived in the five great clans and had people accompanying her when she went out. Naturally, she did not need to learn how to drive a horse.
Audrey did not deliberately learn it. She just took a look and learned it.
Her words instantly made the three of them shut their mouths. According to Audrey’s genius mind, it was indeed very easy to learn everything. Although they were also praised as geniuses by others, they were still far from being compared to Audrey.
The carriage continued forward, walking from dawn to dusk. The further south they went, the hotter the weather became.
At night, the few of them could only rest on the spot.
“Where are we? What is this place?” Klein asked casually.
“About half of the way. This is probably a wilderness.” Audrey looked around. It was a desolate wilderness, and it was particularly desolate.
Hobart and Adrian did not ask any more questions. They quickly set up tents on the spot. At the same time, Audrey lit a fire and the few of them sat together, chatting and eating.
Suddenly, a few strange sounds came from the bushes not far away. Audrey’s indifferent eyes instantly turned sharp. She struck out with her combat aura and realized that there was a wild boar behind the bushes.
From the looks of it, it was just an ordinary wild boar. It did not have much offensive ability.
“It’s actually a wild boar.” The three people by the side, who were already nervous and ready to fight, smiled helplessly. “Should we capture it and eat it?”
“Aren’t you full?” Audrey asked as she glanced at them indifferently.
“Not really,” Klein replied. Because they had brought sufficient food this time, they had eaten without restraint. They were only curious about the taste of the wild boar.
“Then let it go.”
Audrey waved her hand and removed the trap that had been placed on the wild boar. The wild boar quickly escaped, but its appearance also reminded Audrey.
Although this place was desolate, it was still dangerous. It was very likely that wild beasts would appear at night, so they could not be careless.
“I’ll keep watch at night,” Audrey took the initiative to say.
“I’ll go with you,” Klein immediately agreed, but he was immediately rejected by Audrey. “There’s no need. It’s not very dangerous here. I’ll be fine by myself. Everyone, take turns. We can still sleep a little longer.”
Klein and the others thought for a moment and decisively agreed with Audrey’s words.
Audrey kept watch for the night while thinking about the Heaven Fey Herb. Before she reached Herb King Valley, everything was unknown. She was only prepared for the worst.
Soon, Hobart came over to take over the vigil. Audrey entered the tent, but she was still not sleepy. She simply entered the otherworldly realm to cultivate and strive for an early breakthrough.
Meatball was still lying lazily on the bench as usual. Seeing Audrey’s troubled look, he asked in a childish voice, “What happened outside? Where are you going again? Do you have any good food?”
“Do you want to eat grass?” Audrey retorted angrily.
Meatball snorted coldly and rolled his eyes at Audrey before he became serious.
“Have you heard of Herb King Valley? There’s also Sky Demon Herb,” Audrey asked meaningfully.
Upon hearing this, Meatball frowned. His cute look instantly made Audrey feel much better. She waited quietly for Meatball’s answer.
“It sounds familiar, but I don’t remember. Perhaps you can look for it in the books in the house,” Meatball said thoughtfully as he pointed the way for Audrey.
