I am a wizard! Not a warrior!

Chapter 26 Abyss Demon, Crimson Lord

Led by Shadow Tiger, Zhang Changsheng rode the white dragon to a castle.

"Are there werewolves in this castle?"

Zhang Changsheng looked at the castle under the moonlight, his brows furrowing slightly.

According to his understanding, only nobles were able to build castles.

If the werewolf is a noble or related to nobles, then things become more complicated.

In this world, killing a noble is a serious crime and will result in being wanted by the empire.

"How could that be?"

When the female knight saw Zhang Changsheng stop, she looked at the castle in disbelief.

"Your Excellency Wizard, are you sure the werewolf is inside this castle?"

The female knight looked at Zhang Changsheng with a grim expression; clearly, she also knew things were not going well.

"You should know the Shadow Tiger; its sense of smell is never wrong."

After glancing at the female knight, Zhang Changsheng rode away on his white dragon.

"Are you abandoning the mission, sir?"

Seeing Zhang Changsheng's actions, the female knight caught up and asked.

"Getting involved with nobles will cause serious trouble, and that small commission won't be enough."

Zhang Changsheng shook his head, then looked at the female knight with some curiosity: "I find it a bit strange. You seem to care a lot. Do you have a grudge against that werewolf?"

"That's right, we have a grudge."

The female knight nodded, and just as she was about to speak, Zhang Changsheng rode off into the distance on his white dragon, leaving only a voice behind.

"I'm sorry, I can't help you. I can't afford to offend nobles right now."

"Sir, wait a moment, I'd like to make a deal with you."

The female knight pulled a black mirror from her bosom and held it high.

"Um?"

Zhang Changsheng subconsciously flicked his hand to examine the black mirror and opened the information to check it.

The Black Mirror of the Elf King (Fake)

Rank: 3

Quality: Perfect

Perfect Effect: Intelligence +1

Effect 1: Intelligence +1

Effect 2: Randomly summon an elf hero to fight for you.

Description: This is a replica made by humans based on the equipment of the Elf King, but even as a replica, it is still a decent piece of equipment.

"Tier 3 equipment?"

Zhang Changsheng frowned and ran even faster.

As the saying goes, there's no such thing as a free lunch; if a free lunch were to fall from the sky, it would surely be followed by a shooting star.

Zhang Changsheng instinctively sensed that this was a huge vortex.

He's a man with cheat codes; he can become a god given enough time, so there's no need for him to risk his life for some so-called benefit.

"?"

The female knight was completely bewildered and speechless as she watched Zhang Changsheng run even faster.

She didn't expect that even Tier 3 extraordinary equipment couldn't impress Zhang Changsheng.

"Damn it!"

The female knight gritted her teeth and took out a bone whistle from her bosom.

A piercing whistle rang out instantly.

"roar!"

"roar!"

……

A dozen tall, dark figures leaped out of the manor and chased after Zhang Changsheng.

These tall, dark figures are werewolves.

"?"

Zhang Changsheng looked at the werewolf behind him, his brows furrowed, somewhat puzzled as to why the female knight could summon a werewolf.

If they're in cahoots, why would they post a quest in the Adventurers' Guild?

"Rain Mist Eagle!"

Zhang Changsheng looked at the Rain Mist Eagle on his shoulder.

"Hey!"

After nodding, the Rain Mist Eagle instantly transformed into white mist and dissipated, spreading outwards.

As the fog dissipated, Zhang Changsheng gained a clear understanding of the werewolves chasing him, the female knight, and the situation within the manor.

Among the werewolves behind him, only two were of Tier 2, while the rest were of Tier 1.

As for the manor, there were no living people left. The open space was covered with corpses and blood, as if it were a sacrifice to some evil god.

Judging from the corpses, several of them should be adventurers from the Adventurers' Guild.

Around that bloody altar, several tall second-tier werewolves and some first-tier werewolves were guarding it; not all werewolves came to hunt him down.

"So that's how it is. It's to collect the corpses of superhumans to sacrifice to evil gods or demons?"

"As for the knights in the town, they probably didn't participate; they fell for a diversionary tactic."

"Or maybe there were other participants. Never mind, no matter what, we can't trust these people."

While pondering, Zhang Changsheng checked the information on the werewolves behind him and in the manor, but did not find any third-tier werewolves.

"If it's not at Tier 3, you can still fight it."

A hint of killing intent rose in Zhang Changsheng's eyes.

These werewolves moved at varying speeds, and when the last werewolf passed through a patch of grass...

The shadows in the grass stirred, and a huge creature lunged out from them.

Click!

With a powerful bite, the Shadow Tiger used its brute force to blow the head off the Tier 1 werewolf.

At the same time, the grass thorn vine snake was summoned to Zhang Changsheng's side.

"A thicket of thorny bushes!"

The moment the thorny vine snake landed, it activated its second-tier spell, "Thorn Jungle".

Stab! Stab!

Amidst the sizzling sound, long, thorn-like blades of grass sprouted, instantly transforming the meadow into a thicket of thorns.

These grass thorns are very long, reaching three or four meters in height.

Under the deliberate manipulation of the thorny vine snake, the werewolves were all separated.

"not good!"

The female knight's pupils contracted, and she quickly jumped off her warhorse. The instant she landed, the metal-like grass thorns, like spears, pierced her warhorse from below.

Some slow-reacting Tier 1 werewolves were also killed in this way; only Tier 2 werewolves and a few werewolves were able to react in time.

You have killed a Tier 1 werewolf!

[The slaughter and plundering have begun!]

You have plundered the first-tier spell "Bloodseeker" from the bloodline of a first-tier werewolf.

[Under the effect of this spell! Your Strength +0! Your Constitution +0! Your Agility +0!]

[Note! Killing a Tier 1 werewolf again will not grant you spells!]

"My attributes haven't improved, so it seems that first-tier spells are no longer useful."

Zhang Changsheng looked at the prompt in front of him and thought to himself.

"roar!"

A dragon's roar resounded, and Ignis appeared behind the female knight, unleashing a burst of fire magic.

A massive fireball, the size of a house, hurtled towards the female knight.

"A red dragon battle pet! How is that possible?"

The moment Scholar Li turned around and saw this scene, his expression changed drastically. That was a dragon! A real dragon!

A mere second-tier wizard has a red dragon as a battle pet? That's just too outrageous.

Dragons are extremely proud creatures; they would never sign a contract, even if it meant death.

So, even many legendary wizards don't have dragon battle pets, so why does Zhang Changsheng have one?

"Holy Shield!"

The female knight raised her shield, and terrifying holy light rose, transforming into a huge shield of light.

At the same time, Zhang Changsheng's other battle pets also appeared and launched an attack on the werewolves in the jungle.

"roar!"

The dragon-armored bear rampaged through the thorny bushes, its massive body capable of crushing two or three werewolves with a single impact.

"Explosive Flame!"

Zhang Changsheng rode the white dragon to a second-tier werewolf and threw a punch, creating a wall of fire.

boom!

The towering werewolf was instantly blasted away by the terrifying flames and crashed into the tough grass spikes.

Because of its 14 points of constitution, the werewolf did not die, but was only seriously injured, and its wounds began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"roar!"

The white dragon let out a roar that sounded somewhat like a white dragon's roar, and with a snap of its mouth, it exhaled a terrifying chill.

The cold air froze everything it touched, instantly engulfing the heavily wounded werewolf.

Click!Click!Click!

With a crackling sound, the werewolf was instantly frozen into a huge block of ice.

"Fireball!"

Zhang Changsheng moved swiftly, arriving in front of the ice block and unleashing a punch.

boom!

The huge block of ice shattered into countless fragments amidst the explosion of flames.

You killed the second-tier werewolf!

[The slaughter and plundering have begun!]

You have plundered the second-tier spell "Restore" from the bloodline of a second-tier werewolf.

[Under the effect of this spell! Your Strength +0.5! Your Constitution +1! Your Agility +0.5!]

[Note! Killing a second-tier werewolf again will not grant you spells!]

"A restoration spell?"

"Judging from the attribute bonuses, it is a defensive spell."

After a glance, Zhang Changsheng communicated with the spell model in his mind and instantly understood the spell's effect.

This spell is very similar to a first-tier healing spell; both are passively activated spells.

It significantly enhances the body's self-healing ability, and the effect increases with the improvement of physical constitution; the higher the physical constitution, the faster the recovery speed.

Simply put, it's a more advanced version of healing techniques.

"Damn crawler, die!"

Ignis roared as she slammed into the female knight, her massive claws lashing out and instantly tearing the knight, armor and all, in two.

This is a dragon. Even a second-tier young dragon is not something that human professionals of the same tier can fight against. Only wealthy mages can fight against dragons.

At the same time, a notification appeared before Zhang Changsheng's eyes again.

Your battle pet, the red dragon "Ignis," has killed a second-tier knight!

[The slaughter and plundering have begun!]

You have plundered the second-tier spell "Light Shield" from the bloodline of a second-tier knight.

[Under the effect of this spell! Your Strength +0.5! Your Constitution +0.5! Your Agility +0.5!]

[Note! Killing a second-tier knight again will not grant you any spells!]

"Do I also receive a reward after my battle pet kills an enemy?"

"Excellent! Excellent!"

Zhang Changsheng looked at the notification in front of him with a happy expression. In this way, he wouldn't have to deliberately steal kills.

"retreat!"

Seeing their companions die, especially the female knight, the remaining werewolves' morale collapsed instantly, and they fled backward.

"roar!"

Shadow Tigers appeared and disappeared repeatedly from the shadows of these werewolves, and one by one, the first-tier werewolves died instantly.

Only one second-tier werewolf remained, running frantically on all fours like a wild wolf.

Even if there are tough thorns blocking the way, they don't care, even if they get scraped and bloody.

"A cage of vines!"

The elemental flower spirit peeked out from behind a blade of grass and raised its hand to cast its second-tier spell at the second-tier werewolf.

Suddenly, huge vines rose from beneath the werewolf's feet, instantly transforming into a massive cage that trapped the werewolf inside.

boom!

The werewolf rammed its head into the vines of the cage, denting the vines but not breaking them.

"Watch me drive away evil."

Xiao Guang appeared beside the Elemental Flower Spirit, pushed with both hands, and a bright golden light rose up.

The werewolf instantly turned to ashes in the golden light, utterly and completely dead.

This is the spell to exorcise evil, a spell that is very effective against dark monsters. Even if a werewolf has 14 points of constitution, it cannot withstand it and will be instantly killed.

This is why angels and fairies are so popular and valued.

In some ways, they are no weaker than dragons, especially when facing evil creatures.

"Well done, you two."

After summoning Xiao Guang and the Elemental Flower Spirit to his side, Zhang Changsheng patted the two little ones on the head and praised them.

"It's good that Master knows. I'm very powerful. Once I become Angewomon, I won't need to resort to sneak attacks anymore. Even in head-on battles, I'll be a key player."

Xiao Guang raised his head slightly and said with a proud look on his face.

"You're the best. Once you become Angewomon, you'll be the boss."

Zhang Changsheng laughed heartily.

"No way, I'm the boss!"

Ignis flew over from a distance and spoke with great dissatisfaction.

"Hmph, I'm the boss. You big guy are no match for me!"

Xiao Guang also looked at Ignis with a dissatisfied expression.

"Alright, alright, once you two reach Tier 4, have a fight. Whoever wins becomes the boss."

Zhang Changsheng laughed heartily and then reassured him.

"Did you hear me? You little brat, I'm going to give you a good beating!"

Ignis raised her head high and looked at Xiaoguang with her chin.

"Hey big guy, wait, I'm going to flatten you."

Xiao Guang was not to be outdone.

As for the other battle pets, they are not as intelligent and cannot speak, so they naturally cannot participate in the competition for the leader.

Zhang Changsheng approached the female knight's corpse and began examining the spoils of war.

Besides the Elf King's Black Mirror (fake) and the Knight's equipment, there are two other very good items that he can use.

They were a red bracelet and a red ring, both of which looked as if they had been soaked in blood, and were quite bloody.

"The Crimson Lord, the Abyss Demon?"

"It seems that the Crimson Lord is the one to be sacrificed in the manor."

After reading the information about the two pieces of equipment, Zhang Changsheng instantly understood who the sacrifice target in the manor was.

It wasn't the evil god he imagined, but a demon from the abyss.
