It’s getting harder and harder to be a villain these days

"Did you use this to kill ghosts?"

"Ah."

"Amazing!"

Under Olivia's heartfelt sigh, Vickery laughed.

"It's nothing surprising. This is magic that only focuses on lethality."

Due to limited time, he chose the route that focused most on combat and lethality.

It's just that he still suffered a disastrous defeat at the hands of Knight Noel.

"There is enough killing in this world. Compared to me, your creative magic is what this world needs, isn't it?"

“…”

Only then did Olivia understand why Vickrey wanted to protect the Red Bloods in today's meeting. It turned out...

"Okay, don't ask anymore, it's time for you to go to sleep."

Olivia asked, looking at Vickery with wide eyes.

"But isn't it about to dawn..."

She pointed to the clock on the wall. It was already five o'clock.

But the amazing thing is that no matter how much the stopwatch spins, the next minute never comes.

"Didn't anyone tell you? The passage of time gets weird here."

"The nights in the Wolff Mountains are very long, at least 10 hours, and depending on how strong the magic is that day, it can be extended to 12 hours, 18 hours, or 24 hours."

"So go to sleep."

"..."

Vickery's voice was firm yet gentle.

Olivia had some doubts in her heart.

Does he now treat himself as Tyne's assistant, or does he treat himself as a student of the academy?

Or maybe she was just a stupid kid who got lost at night?

Olivia lay on the bed, thinking about this problem all the time.

...

Olivia fell asleep with the sound of the pages turning and the warmth of the blazing fire.

It's very comfortable and feels like I've never felt safer.

Dimly, Olivia looked out the window.

In the darkness, a shooting star pierced the night sky.

Very beautiful.

Chapter 67: Are they still human beings if they have demon blood?

After Olivia fell asleep, Weekly quietly left the hotel and headed towards the fourth area.

After bypassing the council hall, he looked at the snow-capped mountains next to him, where the concentration of magic power was highest.

The reason why wizards prohibit ordinary people from approaching the fourth area is not only because the council hall is located here, but also the extremely dangerous monsters and ghosts who are good at spiritual attacks in the back mountain.

In the game, the Wolff Mountains is a high-level map that players will only come into contact with in the later stages.

Even if the reputation of the wizard camp is not high, it is impossible to enter without an invitation letter from the parliament.

But because of this, the probability of getting rare items here will become very high.

It’s a rare occasion to come to the Parliament, and it would be a pity not to take something away with you.

in the dark.

Vickery walked on the mountain road and looked around.

His bloodline as a demon hunter gives him extremely high night vision.

Various ghosts were floating in the air, but Weekly didn't care. With extremely high mental resistance, he could still fight even if he encountered an A-level monster.

'Why isn't he afraid? '

'weirdo. '

The ghosts gathered together and whispered. They had certain intelligence and did not move rashly. They just followed Vickrey quietly.

In this way, Vickery led a group of ghosts and walked deep into the snow-capped mountains.

However, due to the huge gap between the game map and reality, he only remembered the approximate location of the rare material area and wandered in the snowy mountains for a long time.

During this period, Weekly saw a yak as big as a house, and even discovered a piece of snowflake that moved randomly, which is a 'snow elf'.

If possible, Weekly would like to kill it to obtain rare materials.

However, considering his current strength, it seems unrealistic to kill it quickly.

When we don't know how much time there is until dawn, and we have to attend the Wizards Council on time tomorrow morning, the risk we take is too great...

Just when Vickery was hesitating whether to take action.

"Crack!"

Suddenly there was a thunder in the sky, and a dazzling silver lightning pierced the dark sky.

The earth trembled, and the thunder's impact point was nearby.

The snow elf was frightened by the thunder and disappeared into the snowy mountains. By the time Vickrey came back to his senses, it was already too late.

Thunder out of thin air?Are you so unlucky?

Vickrey shook his head. There was no need to think about the snow elf. At his speed, it was basically impossible to catch up.

But before leaving, he planned to take a look at the place where the lightning struck.

Although nothing unusual happens in the Wolff Mountains covered with high concentrations of magic, there must be a reason behind this supernatural phenomenon...

After walking in the direction of the thunder for a while, a burning smell gradually came from the air.

In a white pine forest, an unexpected piece of scorched earth caught Vickrey's attention.

"#@￥#@"

The ghost said something.

But Vickery simply ignored him and walked over.

The black soil was turned outwards and emitting green smoke, as if it had just been struck by lightning.

In the center of the pit stood a burning piece of wood.

[The remains of the tree demon]

Grade: High level (fragment of tree demon torn apart by lightning)

Effect: Ti's body contains a large amount of raw magic purified by lightning, which can be used to make wands.

...

Dryad, a tree that feeds on magical energy.

Usually most trees cannot absorb water and magic from the air, but occasionally mutant species appear that absorb magic from nature and convert it into their own magical energy to store...

Therefore, dryads either grow into ogres that threaten humans, or become weapon materials limited to wizards.

And this tree demon growing in the Wolf Mountains is obviously the best among them, and its magic power reserve is dozens of times that of the tree demons in other areas.

And after being struck by lightning to purify the impurities in the magic power, its value will be unimaginable.

Whether it is made into a wand or a magic prop, it can elevate his strength to a new level.

This is a better treasure than a snow elf.

Vickrey held the remains of the dryad in his arms, and the corners of his mouth could not help but slightly raise.

"good."

This gift of nature encouraged Vickrey, and he got busy again, trying to see if he could encounter other treasures.

Just in case, he also tried to talk to the ghost just now.

"If there are any good things left, please lead me there."

'Ho~ bah! '

The ghost spat unkindly.

"....Useless things."

Vickrey, who was in a good mood, did not care about it and walked away alone.

But even after he searched for a long time in the snow-capped mountains, he still found nothing.

It seems that this idea was too greedy, and nature did not respond and even blew up a storm...

In the wind and snow, Vickery stopped and looked at the sky quietly.

The morning sun rises slowly from the east.

In the dawn that soaked the ridge, the ghosts disappeared.

The meeting is about to start again...

-----

With the sunshine coming in from the window, Olivia opened her eyes. She rubbed her hair that had become a chicken coop and looked around, only to find that Vickery was no longer there...

"..."

Olivia rubbed her eyes, quickly finished washing herself, and returned to her room.

The eagle was still asleep in the bed.

"Dong dong."

"Breakfast, dear, Parliament starts in an hour."

Opening the door, Tyner walked in with breakfast. The father and daughter finished their meal and walked to the conference room in the fourth area with the people in the hotel.

There was no sign of Vickrey in the team, and his assistant Kitty was walking alone at the back, as if he was isolated.

There was something indescribably pitiful about that petite figure...

Olivia was very sorry about this, she still liked this associate professor.

Upon entering the conference hall, people found that Vickery had already arrived. After everyone took their seats, the meeting officially began.

The wizards discussed yesterday's Crimson Clan motion again.

This time it was Betan who spoke first.

"Although as Vickrey said, it is indeed impossible to prove that the Red Bloods are demons, but they still have the blood of demons on their bodies. This is an indisputable fact."

"Are they still human beings if they have demon blood?"

Are the Redbloods derivatives of demons or humans?This is a rather ambiguous question, and Bertan found a good breakthrough.

The wizards present gradually became suspicious.

"You never know when the demonic nature in the Crimson Blood Tribe will strike. Even during a conversation, they will turn into demons in a second."

"After all, in the end, is it still your personal imagination?"

"Isn't that true?"

More than half of the wizards were hostile to the Redbloods, and they tried to work together to convince Weekly.

"Your speech is always based on the fact that the Crimson Blood Tribe will inevitably become demons. What if we conduct a cleanup and discover that they are not demons? Should we stop midway? Or turn a blind eye?"

"It's just one possibility among thousands of possibilities. Are we going to kill each other?"
