Chapter 329: Means
A Demonic Creature?
Lynn dodged the sudden attack. When he saw the appearance of the attacker, he couldn’t help but be stunned.
Is there still a demonic creature in Weir Town that hasn’t been cleaned up?
That shouldn’t be!
It’s been so long since the Abyssal demonic creature invasion. With the means of the Viper Academy, it shouldn’t be possible for a demonic creature to be left wandering around the town.
What’s more…
Low-level demonic creatures have no rationality and will only instinctively attack living things. How has it been hiding for so long?
The demonic creature in front of him was about two and a half meters tall, with dark red skin that looked like wrinkles, and no hair at all.
Two curved horns were particularly eye-catching, and the pair of fleshy wings on its back were gently flapping.
A Horned Demon!
Commonly known as a Two-Horned Demon.
“Roar!”
A low roar came from the Two-Horned Demon’s mouth, carrying a terrifying aura that made living beings tremble.
Innate abilityโAura of Fear!
Along with the Horned Demon’s roar, sparks of fire burst from its mouth, and the surrounding temperature also increased.
“Whoosh!”
Its wings suddenly flapped, and its figure quickly swept across the ground, pouncing towards Lynn’s location.
It came with swift momentum and terrifying power.
“Fire!”
Lynn subconsciously retreated, and with a point of his staff, a scorching flame rushed forward.
Jeff, who was hiding in the corner, saw this scene, and his eyes twitched involuntarily.
What strong fire control!
He’s clearly just a newly promoted Intermediate Wizard Apprentice, but his spell power is almost comparable to a Senior Wizard Apprentice.
The staff was like a fire dragon’s giant mouth, spewing out rolling flames, instantly covering the Horned Demon.
Unfortunately…
Jeff revealed a sinister smile:
‘The Two-Horned Demon is specifically designed to counter Fire Magic. This was prepared especially for you by Senior Senior.’
In the arena.
The raging flames slowed the Horned Demon’s forward momentum.
“Bang!”
The flames dispersed.
The Horned Demon, its skin glowing red, roared as it tore through the flames, its scarlet eyes fixed on Lynn.
The Fire Magic that landed on it was as if it had been swallowed.
“Whoosh!”
The Horned Demon charged again, its speed even more ferocious. In addition to the terrifying aura of the Abyssal demonic creature, its claws also pulled out a flame.
It is also a fire-attribute demonic creature. Its resistance to fire is extremely high, and it’s almost immune to zero-circle Fire Magic.
“Tsk…”
Lynn dodged, and the wall behind him was easily torn apart by the Horned Demon. Even the huge stones cracked on the spot.
If such an attack were to land on him, not to mention a wizard apprentice with a weak body, even a Legendary Knight would probably not be able to withstand it.
“Whoosh!”
“Clang…”
A long sword appeared in Lynn’s hand. The blade flicked upward, precisely piercing the Horned Demon’s outstretched wrist.
The knight’s sword collided with the skin, and it actually made a sound like metal clashing.
Immediately after.
“Clang clang clang…”
The sound of a storm of attacks rang out, and in an instant, sword shadows filled the arena. One person and one demonic creature were fighting together, and it was actually a stalemate.
How is this possible?
Jeff’s eyes widened.
The combat power that Lynn was displaying at this moment was almost comparable to a Legendary Knight. This greatly exceeded his expectations.
‘The Green Dog Brothers must have been killed by him!’
He was secretly rejoicing that Lynn hadn’t found out that he was the one who instructed the Green Dog Brothers to attack.
Otherwise…
He would probably have died somewhere long ago!
‘Very good!’
‘Since you haven’t found me, then it is your destiny to have me as your calamity. Just obediently go die!’
He followed the method taught by Senior Senior, using force to urge the Horned Demon to attack, his eyes fixed on the battlefield.
At this time, Lynn had been entangled with the Horned Demon for a while, and his strength was gradually failing. His brows were also furrowed.
There’s a problem!
Demonic creatures lack intelligence, but they have a combat instinct.
The Horned Demon should know very well that it won’t be able to take me down in a short time, and it might even lose. Theoretically, it shouldn’t continue to entangle with me, especially with all the humans nearby. Entangling with me is not worth it.
Unless…
โโโ
With a thought, his eyes quietly turned red, and a powerful sense of perception spread out in all directions.
Since becoming an Intermediate Wizard Apprentice, he had mastered another zero-circle spell.
Crown of Flames!
This spell can increase the affinity for fire to a certain extent, and also promote the perception of mental power.
Coupled with the enhancement of the Heart of Fire, Lynn’s perception was now even stronger than that of an ordinary Senior Wizard Apprentice.
Soon…
Found it!
“Clang!”
The sword sang softly, like a precious sword being unsheathed. A cross-shaped sword light burst out from the gap between attacks.
Holy Cross Swordsmanship!
The top martial art passed down in the Holy Sanctuary bloomed in Lynn’s hands, instantly sending the Two-Horned Demon flying.
Although it wasn’t enough to kill it, it was enough to buy time to catch his breath.
“Whoosh!”
His figure flickered, and the knight’s sword was continuously swung in front of him. Walls were shattered one after another, revealing the figure hiding behind them.
“It’s you?”
Lynn recognized Jeff. His eyes flickered slightly, and then he pounced over.
“Don’t…”
“Ah!”

*
In a hidden, deserted room.
Lynn looked at Jeff, who was tied up like a dumpling, and toyed with a sharp dagger in his hand.
“Are you sure you won’t talk?”
“Heh…” Jeff’s face was pale, and his body trembled slightly. He shook his head and said:
“Kill me if you want. If I talk, not only will I die, but everyone related to me will die.”
“Lynn.”
He gritted his teeth and glared at him:
“Don’t even think about getting anything out of my mouth. I am also a Wizard Apprentice and know the Memory Sealing Technique.”
“Memory Sealing Technique?” Lynn chuckled and shook his head:
“You think I have no way to deal with you?”
“Hmph!”
Jeff snorted coldly and closed his eyes, ignoring him.
He had not only cultivated the Memory Sealing Technique, but also the Soul Locking Spell, which could allow his consciousness to leave his body.
Therefore, no matter how Lynn tortured him, he could ignore it because he wouldn’t feel any pain.
“Okay!”
Lynn nodded and gently opened his hand. The dagger in his hand was immediately enveloped by rolling flames.
When the flames dispersed, the dagger had been melted into small steel needles.
“I wonder if you’ve heard of a puppetry technique that can be used to control people like marionettes.”
“Whoosh!”
The steel needles trembled slightly in Lynn’s hand, and then they suddenly pierced into Jeff’s head, disappearing into it.
“Whoosh!”
“Whoosh whoosh!”
One steel needle after another pierced into Jeff’s head, heart, and limbs, and a cold aura connected them together.
Puppetry!
This was a strange spell from the Lich Inheritance.
Lynn had the vast memories of his original body, so it was too easy to find a way to break the Memory Sealing Technique.
But he obviously didn’t just want to find out who was behind Jeff.
He weighed the gourd in his hand and smiled faintly, placing the newly refined gourd in Jeff’s hand.
A Horned Demon was kept inside the gourd.
It was the one that had attacked him.
“I’ve refined this thing again. Next time you awaken the Horned Demon, it will go berserk and attack everything around it. Even a Formal Wizard would have difficulty stopping it.”
He patted the top of the other’s head, and Lynn slowly stood up:
“Take it and go find that person, and then let him personally experience the gift I’m giving him.”
“…” Jeff raised his head, the muscles on his face twitching wildly, and then his expression gradually calmed down. He nodded and said:
“Yes.”
