The most powerful wizard in the magic world
Chapter 223 The Next Step
The aftermath of the battle lingered in the air for a long time, and the ruins were filled with a strong smell of gunpowder. Gerling took a deep breath, trying to calm the tension brought by the battle. He looked around and found that the battle was about to end, and the bodies of the enemies were scattered on the ground. The time to grab the spoils had come.
"Quick, everyone, gather together, there are a lot of good stuff here!" Gerling shouted to his team members. The fighting blood in his body had not yet subsided, his eyes were bright and his face was full of excitement.
"These equipments are really good." A young warrior, Iger, was inspecting the corpse of an enemy and pointed at the exquisite mail armor on his body. "I dare say that this set of mail armor is much better than my current equipment."
"Don't just focus on the equipment, pay attention to the magic stones and materials! There may be valuable things here." Gerlin reminded, and then began to search carefully in the wreckage of the battle. His fingers restlessly stroked a piece of magic stone that was shining with a light blue light, and he was secretly happy in his heart.
Kelly came over and threw a faintly shining magic stone to Gerlin. "I got this from the giant. I heard that this kind of magic stone can be used to strengthen weapons or make powerful potions."
"Good stuff, everyone must carefully distinguish it. If it is really valuable, don't miss it." Gerlin put away the magic stone and then glanced at the black and red notebook beside him. "What is this?"
"It looks like a notebook, maybe it's related to the enemy." Kelly wiped the dust off her hands, slowly walked over to pick up the notebook, and opened the first page. She frowned slightly, as if she felt that the content was unusual, "The handwriting inside... seems to be magic runes?"
"Let me see it," Gerlin urged, reaching out to take the notebook. "Something that records magic, especially the enemy's, should have a lot of secrets."
Kelly handed the notebook to Gerling, with a hint of curiosity in her eyes. "Do you think this is some important message?"
"I hope to get some information about the enemy's strength," Gerling flipped through the notebook. The handwriting seemed to be written in bloody ink, and the content was complex and obscure. "We have to find their leader and understand their plan."
Eagle was lying on the side, searching through a bunch of boxes, his face full of excitement: "There are some potions and some metal materials in this box. We can use them to upgrade our equipment! What a bargain!"
"Wait, don't rush." Gelling waved his hand, his eyes sometimes focused on the notebook, sometimes wandering around the field, as if looking for something. He felt that this battle was not only a victory, but also a good opportunity to obtain intelligence from the enemy. "Be careful, don't be discovered by other enemies."
"I think there shouldn't be many enemies here. If they had sent someone to report, they would have been here long ago." Kelly looked around. Although she didn't find any traces of other enemies, she still felt nervous. "We might as well leave here quickly and analyze these materials and notes in a safe place as soon as possible."
"That's right." Gerling closed his notebook, looked around, and finally nodded, "Put these things away first. We'll rest somewhere else and then watch them." He put away his notebook and tried to calm the excitement in his heart.
"There are still a lot of things here. Let me look for some more." Eagle was already immersed in it. He quickly scanned the spoils around him, and the smile on his face became brighter.
"It was such a great pleasure to fight this time!" Eagle patted his spoils happily, "If this happens every time, our equipment will be upgraded quickly!"
"No, Gerlin, I want that set of mail too." Kelly cast a dissatisfied look at Eagle, "Do you want to take all the good things for yourself?"
"No problem, as long as I find it, I will distribute it fairly." Eagle raised the chain mail in his hand and said confidently.
"You're thinking too much." Gerling raised his lips, and could not help laughing when he felt the cheerful atmosphere of his teammates. "Don't forget, our goal is to defeat the enemy, not to fight for the spoils."
The men smiled at each other, their post-war joy emanating an irrepressible sense of victory. Gelling put the notebook into his arms with relief and looked around the battlefield. The air was gradually becoming fresher, with only a little smoke in the air, and everything seemed to have returned to calm.
"We have to leave here as soon as possible. If we search for so long, we will definitely attract the enemy's attention." Gerling said firmly. He turned and pointed to the exit. "Hurry up, let's go!"
"Yeah, I feel bad too." Kelly followed, looked around, and walked carefully at the end. She always felt that there was an uneasy atmosphere hanging over everything.
"Do you think the enemy will use the portal to escape?" Eagle ran all the way with doubt on his face.
"That's really possible. The enemy is working hard and should be looking for a way to retreat." Gerling shook off the dust on his body and said after a moment's silence, "We must seize the opportunity and obtain more information before they recover."
"I understand." Iger nodded, looking at Gerlin with trust in his eyes, "We have to go all out this time."
Just as they walked to the exit together, the air around them suddenly turned cold, as if something strange was quietly approaching. Everyone stopped and looked around vigilantly.
"Did you hear it? There are footsteps!" Kelly said in a low voice, frowning. The silence around her seemed extremely strange at this moment.
"Hurry, don't let the enemy find us!" Gerling understood that they were in danger, and his voice dropped to a whisper. He waved his hand to signal the team members to keep quiet and quickly find a hiding place to hide.
The enemy's footsteps were getting closer, and a tense atmosphere spread among the team. Gerling and his team held their breath, fearful and expectant, hiding in a corner until the footsteps gradually faded away.
"Let's not alert the enemy now and just wait for the opportunity." Gerlin slowly breathed a sigh of relief and thought about his next move in his mind.
"I don't think we can stay here any longer," Kelly suggested in a low voice. "The enemy may revive at any time. What should we do if they discover us?"
"Examine this notebook. Maybe we can find more clues." Gellin looked at the notebook in his hand again and said seriously, "Be careful. You have to know the enemy's origins and their purpose."
