The Genius Mage

Chapter 251: Crystal Ball

Audrey carefully walked to the entrance of the cave and entered the cave.

It looked like a karst cave. There were rocks everywhere, and the sound of flowing water constantly entered Audrey’s ears.

There were also colorful lights shining on the rocks. From time to time, a few drops of water would drip from the rocks above Audrey’s head.

“This place…” Audrey had never been here before, so she was sure.

The deeper she went, the colder the air became. It was even colder than the snowy mountains. Audrey did not know how long she had been walking for, but she finally stopped at a place.

Shock flashed in Audrey’s eyes. Not far away, there was a pillar holding a small crystal ball.

“What’s this?” Audrey was puzzled as she carefully approached the crystal ball.

Audrey reached out her hand and picked up the crystal ball.

Perhaps Audrey did not notice that her hand that was holding the crystal ball was a hand that had just been injured and had yet to recover. By touching the crystal ball like this, it just so happened that the blood had stained the crystal ball.

The crystal ball that landed steadily in Audrey’s hand slowly absorbed the blood. In an instant, the crystal ball emitted a dazzling blue light. Audrey subconsciously closed her eyes.

What the hell is going on!?

After a long while, the crystal ball’s light slowly dimmed and returned to its original state, as if what had just happened had never happened.

Audrey slowly opened her eyes and looked at the crystal ball. “What are you?”

However, Audrey was certain that the crystal ball in front of her was not in any danger because she could clearly feel the crystal ball’s energy.

Since she did not know what it was, it was quite useful to have a feeling, so Audrey put the crystal ball away.

After Audrey left the cave and checked the surroundings to make sure that there was no danger, Audrey returned to her previous position.

On the way, Audrey was still thinking about the crystal ball.

What was this thing? Could it really be a prank hidden in the cave by other people who came to the snow mountain?

Audrey did not believe it. Before she knew it, Audrey had returned to her previous position at the foot of the mountain.

When she had just arrived nearby, Audrey found that a bear was constantly attacking everyone. Kate had several wounds on her body.

The others were not any better. They were all reluctantly working together to deal with the bear.

Audrey’s beautiful eyes were wide. She had not expected such a thing to happen the moment she returned.

The bear seemed to have intelligence. Audrey discovered that the bear was very intelligent and attacked.

“Kate!” Hobart shouted Kate’s name and threw the weapon in his hand to Kate.

Kate caught the weapon, but he did not expect the bear to change its target.

At this moment, the bear seemed to sense the presence of someone behind it. It turned around sharply and its fierce gaze landed on Audrey.

Audrey only saw the bear pounce at her fiercely. The bear’s eyes were scarlet red as if it had some kind of disease.

“Audrey! Be careful!” Audrey did not react at all after appearing for less than a few seconds. Kate had been paying attention to the bear’s direction, but he did not expect the bear to pounce on Audrey instead of facing the others.

Audrey had clearly sensed that the bear was about to attack her, but she did not know why she did not move.

“Audrey!” Klein also reacted and shouted at Audrey.

The moment the bear pounced over, a protective barrier appeared around Audrey. The bear was sent flying.

Kate and the others heaved a sigh of relief. They had thought that something was going to happen to Audrey, but they did not expect that Audrey had already cast a protective barrier.

After the bear was sent flying, it disappeared without a trace.

“Fortunately, you’re alright. We thought that something bad was going to happen to you, but fortunately, you reacted quickly and set up a protective shield.” Klein’s injury was not particularly serious, at least compared to the others.

“Okay.” Audrey was not very interested in talking about this matter.

She put her hand into her pocket and rubbed the crystal ball.

Everyone thought that she had made the protective shield herself, but only she knew that she had not made it at all. Instead, the crystal ball had sent it out by itself.

What on Earth was this thing? Why was it protecting her?

Audrey had too many questions, but at least no one could answer her at the moment.

“Everyone is injured. I’m sorry. I went out to investigate, but I didn’t expect an accident to happen.” Audrey had wanted to go out to investigate, but now that everyone was injured, it meant that her investigation could not continue.

“It’s okay. This bear appeared not long after you left. You can’t detect it that fast by yourself.” There was still a bruise on the corner of Kate’s mouth as he comforted her. “So you can’t be blamed.”

“That’s right. No one knows how this bear appeared here. Moreover, you were almost injured just now.” Klein tactfully echoed Kate’s words.

Audrey nodded and cast a grateful look at the few of them. She also took the opportunity to observe their injuries. Kate had a few wounds on his body while the others had minor injuries.

Fortunately, there were still a few bottles of healing potion in her bag. Audrey immediately took them out and gave them to them.

“It’s a pity to drink such a good healing potion.” Klein gave them a glance. As an alchemist, he could tell the level of the potion at a glance.

This was not an ordinary healing potion, but a level-10 potion.
