The last headhunter

Chapter 4 Legend
There used to be a lot of bards in the Luo'an Kingdom.

They are keen to collect legends, and then adapt them into poems and sing in the prosperous streets and alleys, in order to win one or two humble Luoan coins from tippers.

They are a group of down-and-out people who cannot even maintain basic living security.Their devout pilgrimage every day, their desire and extravagant hopes for heroes, were just beliefs worth mentioning in the most prosperous era of the kingdom.

The luxurious life does not need his moving poems to decorate the slightest.The peaceful and happy time seems to be more suitable for feasting and feasting and singing and dancing. 760 Three years ago, before the first natural disaster. This is undoubtedly everyone's thoughts.

And the Warhammer family happened to start out as a family of wandering bards.Murad Warhammer, the grandfather of Sariel Warhammer, was an excellent bard. He earned enough money by reciting the mages who died in the first disaster day after day. The wealth rivals the royal family, and it is precisely because of this that the Warhammer family was able to be incorporated by the royal family and become the imperial family's civil servants.

It wasn't until the birth of Sariel Warhammer with supernatural powers that the bard's inheritance was completely broken.

A natural affinity for the elements and energies led him to pick up a staff and become a magician with a passion for hunting and fighting.

With a war hammer in his name, his family is a singer, but his profession is a mage.This child struggled with countless contradictions, but embarked on his journey of cultivation alone.

People thought he was missing, and the glory of the Warhammer family gradually disappeared due to the recovery and prosperity of the human kingdom after the disaster.In the words of King Terry O, who at the time exempted the Warhammer family from the privilege of privilege, it is:

"When Luo'an no longer needs heroes, he no longer needs those who pursue heroes."

From this point of view, perhaps Sarrell's choice of self-wandering is a kind of far-sighted correctness.

And more than a hundred years later, when the second natural disaster gave signs and people began to seek the guidance of heroes and legends, all the bards had disappeared.Therefore, headhunting, a profession with the same functionality at that time, became the best alternative in the hearts of the people.

And Riel, the vagabond masked person who was originally inconspicuous, began her legend.

But who would have thought that Riel's predecessor, the collection of poems and legends that Riel usually recorded was the collection written by Murad Warhammer.

What she was looking for was also the miracle that the old man who had died of illness spent his whole life pursuing.

A legendary hero—a hero who is enough to save the world.

The only surviving elementalist in the world was found by Riel and brought into the ruins of the magician's temple.Such things are not recorded by anyone.

Simply because they have no way of knowing.

The old man thought back to that story, but shook his head resentfully.He really wanted to meet this old friend, talk about what he had learned from his sneak training in the holy land these years, and talk about the glorious past of his grandfather. But now there is a long separation.

Even Rian, the ancestor of the magician, was buried with this battered world.

He remembered that the first "Fireball Art" he practiced as a novice magician was written by Ryan.He couldn't describe his excitement of burning the trial stake to pieces for the first time.Presumably at that time, he could no longer get rid of his fate with the elements.

And now, the only heir to the Warhammer family...does anyone still remember?
The old man didn't want to think too much about it.He followed the boy's footsteps, turned into a strong wind and charged forward.

And not far away, the ever-expanding heat wave had already materialized in the scorching air, and small lava flames steaming with heat began to spread across the road in front of them.

The figure of the warrior uncle became clearly visible.His armor was dyed purple-black by the flames, and the damaged cracks continued to expand under the torment of such heat.The flame lord was holding the flaming sword in his hand, and it slammed into the shield that the warrior was defending.

"It's right there! That monster! It's impossible for me and him to solve the hateful creature!"

"That's why we need a mage. Please, old man, kill it quickly!"

The boy wiped the sweat off his brow, and said so out of breath.

Lord of Fire, an elemental creation entirely produced by the element of fire.It is the toughest and most aggressive monster among the monsters formed by the five elements of fire, ice, electricity, light, and darkness.If it's only in the primary form, it's okay, the ordinary ice cone technique can be eliminated.But to deal with the lord form, it is only possible to dissipate it by bombarding its body that is not covered by armor with an ice storm indiscriminately.

In a sense, it is really strange that this kind of guy is more difficult to deal with than the undead in such a wilderness.

It always feels like something bad is going to happen.And this catastrophe is extending in the direction of deterioration.

but--

Sariel smiled slightly.

Perhaps, this is the meaning of the hero's existence.

"Young man, let me show you what is the ultimate element."

"The so-called element is an energy form that does not rely on any matter. It was born in the world, and it burns in every corner of the world with an extremely unstable core. Maybe you can't hear the call of the element, but I am at this moment , I can feel their fierce screaming and calling every moment. I can hear the water flow and the electric surge, I can hear the heat wave and the icy wind. They are my life, and they are the ones that accompany the continuous rotation of this world , the ultimate realm."

"The essence of life is the elements. And the elements guide human beings to find the ultimate form of life."

"Look carefully."

The staff in Sariel's hand burst out with intense five-color light, and the five forms of elements began to condense and roll on his staff, until a huge hollow multicolored vortex formed in his palm.Immediately afterwards, he yelled an ancient incantation with unknown meaning, and hit the ground with the staff in his hand, the ground suddenly began to shake, the sky was full of thunder, and the beam of light falling from the sky stirred up dust in the sky, and the heat wave in the flame basin began to surge crazily !

"isha—zewa—dola!"

Suddenly, the flame basin began to crack, and a terrifying black figure that soared into the sky broke free and started screaming continuously!And when the flame energy gathered on it like a storm, the boy just saw clearly——

This is more than ten times larger than the main body of the flame lord, the ultimate elemental creation!

"Tenth-level elemental summoning—flame whisperer, xiur!"

The whole body was completely covered by the heat wave, and the whole body exuded an extremely intense pain like being burned.The ground under the feet began to split and shatter due to the deprivation of water, and the shaking of the sky and the earth felt like a catastrophe was coming!

Is this legendary magic?Such coercion——

The legendary Flame Whisperer came to this world?

And the height of the ultimate elemental monster that has far surpassed Ao'an Town can be regarded as ushering in a temporary relaxation.It laughed wildly, grabbed the flame lord by the waist with its fire claws, and began to chew with its huge mouth!
The flame had no power to resist, and could only become a lamb at the mercy of others in front of such a powerful controlling force. It struggled frantically amidst the painful wailing, and was finally eaten up.

That is the source of all flame arcana.Once, Rian found the arcane summons left by the great sages and mages from the ancient ruins of the northern territory of the world.In that realm, in order to obtain the true inheritance of the elements, Li'an encountered five trials, namely fire, ice, electricity, light, and darkness.In the flame trial, what Rian encountered was the ultimate monster called the Flame Whisperer.

And now, it was successfully summoned by Sariel?

How powerful is this, what kind of elemental affinity?

Before the young man could think about his comings and goings, the elementalist shook his staff lightly in his hand, and the huge elemental creation gradually lost its substance with a wave of phantom, and returned to the staff , lingering and gradually disappearing.

He is really a hero - that legendary magician, the last surviving elementalist in the world!

The shock in my heart is beyond words.He trembled his lips, but was at a loss for words for a moment.

"Ruel has seen much more of the world than you. Boy, you still have a long way to go."

"If you want to be that kind of headhunter, you have to deal with all kinds of heroes. I will be the first senior you meet. But it will definitely not be the last."

Sariel said so earnestly.At that moment, he glimpsed countless emotions from the boy's eyes.Anticipation, disbelief, hope, and the deepest and most powerful plea.

"Senior, you have such great power, why—"

"I know what you want to ask. He also asked the same question as a fledgling. But, you have to know, this world is very big, full of chaos and death that you can't even imagine."

"You haven't even been to the Dark Land, so you naturally don't know what more exaggerated undead monsters are entrenched in the world, and you have to go through various challenges and trials to survive the danger."

"These are all the growth paths you must go through. If you believe in the legend of Reel, then that kind of suffering is just an insignificant part of your struggle."

Sariel said this, but he saw the warrior walking towards him from afar.His insightful eyes swept across, but he couldn't see a wave.

"This world needs heroes, and it needs you, kid."

"Where are you going? Senior! Please - wait for me!"

"Go where I have to go. And sooner or later, we'll meet again."

"Until then, live well."

His body turned into a gust of wind, and suddenly disappeared.

The bounty isn't over yet.

The young man sighed and was about to turn around when he suddenly found something in his hand.

That's a money bag.It contained fifty loan coins.
