When faced with such a snobbish person, by Karuman’s temper, he would certainly have killed him with a slap. But now, he was Ron’s servant, and even Ron had not said anything. As a servant, he naturally would not be meddlesome. After they had found their seats, the magic airship quickly took off and departed from Wind Snow City. It would take a day’s flight to reach Blue Jade City.
….
Roar!
A blood-curdling scream came from the depths of the jungle. Romo could be seen delivering a blow, hitting the blood-red head of a giant bear, which was the size of a huge truck. Instantly, a large amount of cold air invaded the other party’s head and directly froze the giant bear into an ice sculpture. It also let out a final scream before it’s unnatural death. This was already the eighth magical beast Romo had killed in the past two days. This magical beast was at the peak of level-6, which was equivalent to the peak of the Great Archmage realm of humans. It was almost equivalent to Romo’s current realm. The realm of the magical beast was different from that of humans. They were divided into only nine levels; level-1 to level-2 were equivalent to the human realm of a Mage, level-3 and level-4 were equivalent to the realm of a Great Mage, level-5 and level-6 were equivalent to the realm of a Great Archmage, level-7 and level-8 were equivalent to the realm of a Divine Mage. Till now, Romo had not seen a level-9 magical beast.
Romo was actually very stressed when dealing with a magical beast of the equivalent realm as him. This was mainly because he did not have any magical weapons or defensive equipment currently, so he was a little constrained when fighting. However, it was fortunate that his current physical body was an innate spirit body produced by the System. This spirit body, whether it was releasing magical power or restoring magical power, was much stronger than in his previous life. Therefore, although he was of the same realm as this Blood Bear, in the end, it was still killed by Romo.
Romo then dug out the magic core of the Blood Bear. This was a magic core at the peak of level-6. Its value was even greater. Romo looked at the carcass of the Blood Bear. This was the carcass of a level-6 magical beast. Whether it was its fur or flesh, if taken to the human world, everyone would fight over it crazily. But now, Romo could not take it back because he did not have a Storage Ring. Currently, he could only take out the most precious magical beast core.
“Sigh, I’ll leave this carcass for the other magical beasts in the forest to eat,” Romo said with a sigh. Then, he started to look around. He was looking for the bear cave of the Blood Bear. Typically, bear-type creatures had bear caves. And most of the time, their bear caves would have some natural treasures. These natural treasures were beneficial to humans and also to magical beasts. Although they would not know how to refine pills or medicine, they could still eat them raw and reap great benefits.
Within a short time, Romo found the bear’s cave. He sensed for a while; the inside of the bear’s cave was empty and there were no more magical beasts. He entered and looked around. In the end, he was disappointed. There were no natural treasures here at all. However, there were some other items that made Romo very happy. These were the bones of some humans. These should be the human Great Archmagi that had been preyed on by the Blood Bears. Even their bones still had some remnant magical waves which were unique to Great Archmagi. It seemed that it had not been more than a hundred years since they were eaten up. What Romo was interested in were not the bones, but the magical items inside the bones. Romo examined them carefully, and he really found some magical weapons. Unfortunately, they were all damaged and there was completely no need to restore them. Just as Romo was about to leave gloomily, a small black object caught his attention. He picked it up and took a look, and was instantly overjoyed because it was a Storage Ring.
Romo immediately inserted his mental strength into the Storage Ring. Instantly, he saw a space of 10 cubic meters inside the ring. This was actually a high-grade, silver-tier Storage Ring! Romo was overjoyed. What made Romo even happier was that there were already some items stored in the Storage Ring. There were some daily necessities, some Magic Pills, some natural treasures, a few magical beast cores, and a few books of cultivation techniques. Romo was very happy. Now, all these items were his.
After putting the ring on his finger, Romo turned around and left the bear cave. However, just as he left, Romo immediately heard a few roars of a magical beast. The roars contained a hint of anger, and there were even a few magical explosions. Romo was stunned. From the information, he deduced that there should be human Magi fighting a magical beast not far away.
Romo immediately ran in the direction of the sounds. He wanted to see who were fighting. Soon, Romo reached the peak of a mountain. He looked down and saw that not far away, there were three human Great Archmagi besieging a magical beast. It was a lizard-type magical beast the size of a truck. This lizard magical beast was powerful and had the strength of a mid level-6. This was equivalent to the human realm of a level-10 Great Archmage.
As for the three human Great Archmagi, their realms were all lower than this magical beast. They were a level-5 Great Archmage, a level-6 Great Archmage, and a level-7 Great Archmage. However, although the realm of the human Great Archmagi was lower than the magical beast, they outnumbered it, and they could cooperate. They also had magical power and magical weapons. With all these things added up, even if there was only one level-7 Great Archmage, given sufficient time, he would be able to kill this lizard-type magical beast alone, let alone now with three people.
In a battle between humans and magical beasts, humans had the advantage of intelligence. Humans knew how to cooperate, knew how to use magical weapons, and even had formations. However, magical beasts only relied on their instincts to fight. Nonetheless, this was not always the case. Some magical beasts also had intelligence, and they were not inferior to humans. However, such magical beasts had already been distinguished by humans as spiritual beasts. It was just that these spiritual beasts were very rare. This was mainly because the spiritual beasts possessed intelligence. They knew that the strength of the human Magi was not something they could deal with. Therefore, they hid themselves, not meeting the human Magi. Along the way, those Romo encountered were all magical beasts, and there was not a single spiritual beast.
Roar!
At this moment, there was another change in the situation. After the level-7 Great Archmage and the level-6 Great Archmage entangled themselves with the lizard-type magical beast, the level-5 Great Archmage flew toward a direction. The lizard-type magical beast immediately let out a roar and spewed out a large amount of green poisonous fog from its mouth, blocking the three human Great Archmagi directly. The lizard-type magical beast also quickly retreated and blocked a crack in a boulder. Romo looked at the crack and his eyes instantly lit up.. He saw a cherry-sized fruit emitting traces of lightning in the crack. This was actually a level-6 Magic Pill, Lightning Berry!
