Chapter 79: The Trial of the Wind and Thunder Trial Field
On the other side.
The feedback that the ten werewolves had given him earlier appeared in Edil’s mind.
The direction of the back mountain?
When Edil thought of this, a faint smile lifted the corner of his mouth.
Then, he shouted to the mercenaries behind him, “The direction of the back mountain, let’s go!”
Hearing this, a man with a dark face laughed out loud, “Hahaha, the back of the mountain is full of cliffs. They won’t be able to escape. Even if they had wings, they would not be able to escape from us. Little brothers, let’s hurry up and chase after them and help the boss settle this!”
“Yes!”
The other members of the Wild Wolf Mercenaries shouted at the same time.
As soon as they finished speaking, the Wild Wolf Mercenaries immediately split up into two wings, one on the left and one on the right, as they sped towards the back of the mountain.
At this moment, the sun was setting.
A large group of green gnomes carried an injured man and a woman on their backs as they sped towards a mountain wall.
These gnomes were the group of people who had escaped from the Wild Wolf Mercenaries.
As the gnomes ran, a cloud of dust rose behind them.
Not far from this cloud of dust, ten werewolves were chasing after the gnomes like mad dogs.
Roar! Roar! Roar!
Continuous roars came from behind them, as they got closer and closer.
This meant that the ten werewolves were getting closer and closer to the gnomes, and were about to be chased down by them.
Not long after, all of the gnomes stepped into the back part of the mountain. The towering cliff and the cliff entrance next to them caught their eyes.
“Village Chief, there’s no more road up ahead. What should we do?” An older gnome asked in a deep voice.
“We’ll go through the magic seal door later!” Cartier narrowed his eyes as he spoke in a deep voice.
When he said this, all the gnomes present were shocked.
Even Phyllis was no exception.
The Magic Seal Door was not a simple sealed door.
To the gnomes, this was not a simple sealed door, because this seal was the curse that the gnomes had been living under for thousands of years!
The closer they were to this seal, the harder it would be for the cursed gnomes to transform back into the former elf race.
What’s more, the intention was to enter through the magic seal door.
This was an area that was previously avoided by everyone. Why did the village chief want to enter now? Moreover, he wanted all the gnomes to enter. Wouldn’t this cause all the gnomes to become extinct?
As expected, after the village chief finished speaking, Phyllis immediately asked, “Grandfather, it’s true that the Magic Seal Door can provide a layer of defensive magic barrier, but this is… But…”
She did not finish her sentence, but all the gnomes present understood what Phyllis meant.
For the sake of protection this time, they would have to sacrifice the future of all the members of the elf race!
If all of them really entered the sealed door, the hope of the future of the elf race would vanish today.
“This is because we’ve finally found the person that we’ve waited for who can get us out of misery,” Cartier said excitedly.
“The person who can save us from the Sea of Suffering?”
“That’s right, it’s the chosen one that the witch told us about back then!”
Hearing this, all the goblins’ eyes lit up. At the same time, they were filled with incomparable anticipation. Who was the Chosen One that would be able to save them from being lowly gnomes and turn them back into elves again?
“Grandpa, who is it?”
Upon hearing his granddaughter’s excited question, the village chief, Cartier, also happily explained to her, “Hahaha, the Chosen One is this one on my back. He was born from the flames, and with just a thought, he controlled lightning and came with the wind. Isn’t that him?”
Hearing this, the goblins’ expressions were filled with excitement. They even wished that they could reach the Magic Seal Door at the back of the mountain within the next second.
“Great, finally I won’t have to be a gnome anymore.”
“Sob, sob, sob. I didn’t expect to be able to break the curse and become an elf in my generation.”
“It really wasn’t easy for our parents to become the experimental subjects of those b*stards!”
“That’s right. Once I become an elf again, I must personally use arrows to kill these mercenary group members!”
“Hahaha, we’ll be reaching our destination soon. Let’s discuss our future then.”
…
The gnomes were all discussing intensely, looking forward to their future plans.
Although Mike was heavily injured and his consciousness was still a little blurry, from the gnomes’ words, he discovered that they were originally elves.
If elves were a race that was close to humans, it was no wonder that they had saved him and Lilian.
However, the so-called Chosen One that they were talking about was just too strange.
He didn’t even know what the Chosen One was.
He didn’t even understand what Magic Seal Door they were talking about.
In his opinion, this was something that he had never heard of before.
Hence, he quickly opened his mouth and said, “Village chief, thank you for saving us. However, you might be mistaken. I am not the Chosen One of which you speak of.”
When Mike finished speaking, Cartier’s expression froze, but he quickly recovered, then, he said nervously, “Benefactor, you… You must be joking. How could you not be the Chosen One? To be reborn from fire, to come with the wind, and to control lightning with a single thought. Is this not you? Moreover, the fire magic that you used contains a terrifying and pure elemental power.”
After hearing this, Mike understood the reason why Cartier had misunderstood him.
It turned out that Cartier had mistakenly thought that the fire he used was magic. He had come so quietly so they had not noticed it, which made them think that he was some kind of destined child.
However, he could use fire completely because of his Elemental Affinity ability.
If he wanted to explain the Elemental Affinity ability clearly, it would involve the System.
The System was something that could not be explained. If information about it was leaked, it would definitely cause a huge uproar.
There would definitely be all kinds of people on this continent who would capture him and slice him up for research.
Thinking of this, Mike said softly, “I’m sorry. Although I don’t know why you would think that I’m the Chosen One, the fire that I used before was not magic. Moreover, I don’t know lightning.”
Mike knew that magic on this continent was extinct, but he knew that the most important thing to become a mage was to use spiritual power.
However, after Mike finished speaking, Cartier stopped in a daze.
In his opinion, his biggest trump card this time had been that Mike was the Chosen One.
As long as this was confirmed, Mike would be able to break the curse. At the same time, after they broke the curse, they would be able to have back their original elven power and also be able to resist the dark magic of Edil.
But now, he had messed everything up for everyone.
Not only had he not bring him, but he had also brought his own people on a path of no return to extinction.
No matter if they continued or stopped, they could not leave this path of destruction.
Could it be that God really could not tolerate everything related to magic?
Was everything that was naturally close to the elven race going to be destroyed?
With that thought, Cartier was completely lost.
Even if the Magic Seal Door was right in front of him, he could not help but stop.
Seeing that their village chief had stopped, the other gnomes also stopped. The gnomes all fell into unease and anxiety.
Mike also struggled down from his back.
“Roar Roar Roar!”
At this time, the ten werewolves behind him let out terrifying roars.
The other gnomes couldn’t help but anxiously urge, “Village Chief, those guys behind us are about to catch up. What should we do?”
“Yeah, should we enter or not?”
“Stop arguing and let your village chief think about it. This is the moment that will decide our fate!”
Hearing the anxious discussion of the goblins, Mike also turned his gaze to the Magic Seal Door that they were discussing.
He was also very curious. What was the magic that had been completely eliminated in this world?
He saw that on the cliff in front of him, there was a huge formation that was more than ten meters tall embedded in the mountain wall. The entire formation was blue like the deep sea, and it flickered intermittently. It was as if there was an unparalleled Sea of Thunder in the magic formation!
“This is a Magic Seal Door?” Mike raised his head and looked at the Magic Seal formation on the mountain wall in front of him in surprise. “What exactly is sealed inside?”
Just as Mike was thinking about this, a soft voice came from his mind.
“Mike, this Magic Seal formation seals the souls of ancient divine beasts. The Wind and Thunder Test is inside. You must pass it. Remember, remember…”
This voice was his teacher, OER.
Although he didn’t know how Owen’s voice could reach his ears, Mike understood that the magic seal in front of him was the entrance to the test.
Only by entering the Magic Seal Door and passing the test inside could he pass the assessment.
After understanding this, Mike’s eyes became determined.
He started walking towards the mountain wall firmly.
