”Seer?” Surprise flashed through Leymann’s eyes.
He subconsciously looked at Marvin in the magic screen, a bit relieved, ”So it was that.”
”I was wondering why you would dispatch a countryside noble for the competition. Hmph! Young people truly are more cunning.”
Hathaway craftily smiled, ”In any case, you wouldn’t bother with us in this small competition.”
Leymann silently nodded, ”Since that’s the case, I don’t have a problem with it. Baron Marvin’s identity as a Seer, should we report it to the Alliance?”
”No,” Hathaway categorically rejected.
”Reporting to the Alliance is a mistake. I think you know that better than me.”
”Sir Anthony’s death already raised many questions. I also feel a shadow approaching me these days!”
”If not for the Half-Artifact you lent me, I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to hide my presence.”
Hathaway displayed a frightened expression after saying this. ”He is looking for me. Because of my Seer identity. They already know. ”
Leymann’s aged face was very solemn as he replied, ”Indeed, there is a mole inside the Alliance… I’ll think of a way to keep this matter under control.”
”You have to be careful about your safety.”
Hathaway nodded.
Even though they were both Tower Masters of the Three Ring Towers, Hathaway had actually grown up under Leymann. The two had a teacher and friend relationship.
Even if Leymann wasn’t as popular as Anthony in the East Coast, he was still a fairly decent Wizard.
Unfortunately, there weren’t many people like Leymann and Anthony in the South Wizard Alliance.
Some had already been bewitched by the gods and given up on the Universe Magic Pool, choosing corrupted faith instead.
The inside of the Alliance was rotten. The Three Ring Towers could only preserve themselves. This was the only way for the Three Tower Masters.
If the following Calamity wasn’t handled properly, then this Battle of the Holy Grail might be the last one.
The Three Ring Towers would also become history, gradually forgotten in the sands of time!
...
In the cave, the fierce fireball was shot, its flames producing many heatwaves!
1st-circle spell, [Lava Fireball].
This was a variant of the Fireball. It required some volcanic rock powder as a casting material.
Wayne had already smeared a small amount of volcanic powder before taking out his magic staff.
Under his incantation, a Fireball shot out from the end of the snake-like magic staff, quickly impacting the body of that special Snow Demon in an explosion as loud as thunder!
It shrieked in agony, immediately attracting countless Snow Demon Protectors.
”Clang!”
Marvin waved his daggers without any hesitation!
Except for the few special Snow Demons, the rest didn’t enter his eyes.
And Wayne’s spells were specially prepared to break through the Snow Demon Lair.
Wayne’s 150Mp were totally exchanged for 1st-circle spells, six copies of [Lava Fireball]!
This would seem like a completely brainless setup to other people. But Wayne still listened to Marvin’s plans.
Because he trusted his older brother.
The outcome was just as expected. The special spell Lava Fireball turned up useful.
Marvin’s shadow was flashing between these Snow Demon Protectors, turning them into pieces in the blink of an eye.
‘My experience is definitely useful! I hope that hidden area still has the treasure chest!’
Marvin couldn’t help but smile when he looked at the ground covered in snow piles.
That special Snow Demon was a Snow Demon Leader. There were 4 to 6 of them in every Snow Demon nest.
This Snow Demon was a 2nd rank creature, and it also had the [Crystallization] ability!
Physical attacks and ordinary spells would be ineffective. Their attacks also had an extreme penetrating power, making it very difficult to guard against.
This was a very troublesome opponent that even 2nd rank Wizards were unable to defeat.
But Marvin knew of a spell specifically used to deal with Snow Demon Leader.
That was Lava Fireball!
This Fireball was a variation and once it hit the Snow Demon Leader, it would melt it in a second!
Ordinary Fireballs wouldn’t reach this kind of temperature!
And ordinary people wouldn’t exchange their precious MP for a spell in such a neglected branch of magic.
Thus, this hidden Snow Demon Lair was actually prepared by Leymann for 2nd rank Wizards. But it ended up meet a transmigrator like Marvin!
Not only was Marvin a transmigrator, he was also an expert gamer.
He had explored this path who knows how many times.
A Fire Wizard and someone using a blade was enough to clear the Snow Demon lair.
But the price was that Wayne would lose all fighting power after using up all six Lava Fireballs. When the time came, Marvin would have to protect him!
Wayne getting in a difficult situation earlier was because Marvin had prepared to take a different path!
This path was a complete shortcut after all. As long as he cleared the Snow Demon Lair, he would be able to find that hidden Gate.
The hidden Gate led directly to the summit!
And inside the Snow Demon Lair there was a treasure chest with six spare keys inside!
Now Marvin’s only hope was that this hadn’t changed.
So far it was still normal
The brothers kept going forward, continuously killing all kinds of Snow Demons along the way.
The two brothers had split the work. Marvin was in charge of Snow Demon Protectors and Wayne was in charge of getting rid of Snow Demon Leaders with Lava Fireball.
