Versatile Mage: Lord of Space

Ding Yumian's words caused Lin Lan to fall into a brief silence.

Do psychic disaster victims have a talent for peeking into the future?
But no matter what, Ding Yumian should be able to sense something...

Lin Lan was silent for a moment, then walked to Ding Yumian's side and whispered, "There should still be problems. Just because it's going smoothly now doesn't mean it will be smooth sailing in the future, but we have to go anyway."

Ding Yumian nodded, her eyes still deep: "I know. I just want to remind everyone to be extra careful with every step from now on."

Wu Tian and Wu Le stood by the campfire, and heard the conversation between the two, with a bit of embarrassment and uneasiness on their faces. Wu Tian stepped forward and said carefully: "My Lords, we have absolutely no intention of deceiving you. This stone is indeed a family heirloom of our clan, and as for the cave beside the cliff, it is also a secret passed down by our ancestors. If you think there is a problem, we can..."

Lin Lan waved her hand and interrupted him: "No need to say more. Since we have decided to cooperate, we will not easily doubt you. But we must be more cautious in the next action."

Wu Tian breathed a sigh of relief and nodded quickly: "Understood, understood! We will definitely cooperate with you to the fullest."

As the night deepened, the light of the campfire gradually dimmed. Everyone returned to their makeshift tents to rest and prepare for the next day's action.

Lin Lan, however, was not sleepy at all. He sat on a reef by the sea, looking at the dark blue stone in front of him, examining it carefully.

The lines on the stone appeared even clearer under the moonlight, like flowing streams of water. Lin Lan tried to inject a trace of magic power into the stone, but found that the stone had no reaction, just like an ordinary stone.

"Strange..." Lin Lan whispered to himself, "I can clearly feel the spherical energy contained in it, but I can't stimulate it."

At this moment, a faint blue light suddenly flashed on the surface of the stone, and then disappeared in an instant. Lin Lan was stunned and hurriedly tried to inject magic power again, but the stone still did not respond.

"Forget it. I'm too lazy to continue researching. The most important thing is to find the Kuiniu first." Lin Lan put the stone into the storage space and got up to leave.

……

The next morning, problems arose.

The mermaid is dead.

The mermaid who was originally in the sea somehow came to the shore... At this time, there was no life left in the mermaid's body. Except for the nine lightning spears which were bright purple, the color of the rest of the mermaid had turned gray. Lin Lan stood beside the mermaid's body with a frown.

Her fishtail had lost its former luster and was now dull and gray, as if all the vitality had been drained away. Her face was still beautiful, but with a kind of dead silence that made people feel an inexplicable chill.

"How could this happen?" Lin Wanqing walked forward and squatted down to carefully examine the mermaid's body. Her fingers gently touched the mermaid's skin, but she felt it was cold. A trace of doubt and uneasiness flashed in her eyes, "When we left last night, she was still alive, how could she suddenly..."

Lin Lan used his mental power to begin a careful investigation.

There were no signs of fighting or poisoning around, and the nine lightning spears could not cause any harm to her.

This mermaid must have committed suicide, knowing that she would not survive. The IQ of a demon that possesses the mind and sound is generally high...

"It seems that only suicide can explain it clearly." Lin Lan said.

There was no explosion of spirit essence and no residual spirit. This mermaid must have been dead for some time.

"There's nothing we can do about it. If it's gone, it's gone. We still have to keep going on our journey," said Lei Hao.

There was no choice but to get ready. Wu Tian and Wu Le, along with several tribesmen, carried packages of special spices on their backs and prepared to lead Lin Lan and others to Liupo Mountain. "Starting from the fishing village, walk north along the coastline for about ten miles, and you will see the hidden cave." Wu Tian pointed to the coastline in the distance and said, "The entrance to the cave is covered by reefs and vines, and it is difficult for ordinary people to find it."

Lin Lan nodded and motioned for everyone to follow. The group moved quickly along the coastline, the sea breeze mixed with salty and humid air blew in their faces, and the shadows of several fishing boats could be vaguely seen on the sea in the distance.

The group had not walked for long before they found the cave but instead arrived at a rocky island.

The entire island is relatively spacious, but walking around the island would only take a normal person an hour or two at most.

There are still a lot of debris on the rock island, tattered tents, torn clothes and so on...presumably they were left behind by the previous monster hunting team.

"Look at this claw mark. The claws of this sea monster must be at least this long!" Lin Wanqing observed very carefully and soon found a mark on the rock.

It was indeed a claw mark, scratched directly from the two-meter-high rock to the middle. The rock was cut with three sharp marks, indicating that the sea monster had three claws...

"Can you tell what kind of sea monster it is?" Lei Hanhai asked.

"Three-clawed, red. This kind of sea monster is actually quite rare. At least it's not in our monster book, but I guess it should be the Red Ling Monster!" Ding Yumian said with certainty.

"Red Ling Yao, we have never heard of this thing, what level is it?" Lei Hao said.

Lei Hao doesn't care about anything else but rank. Anyone below the commander-in-chief is a piece of cake and can be easily dealt with.

"They are at the level of war generals. One thing can be confirmed, they are not poisonous, but their claws are quite sharp. There are also commanders among these monsters." Ding Yumian said.

At this moment, Lin Lan, who was walking in the front, came out from behind a high rock, dragging a red monster that was about half a person's height...

"It's this thing, right? I encountered several of them just now and killed them all. I thought this small one was quite interesting, so I caught one." Lin Lan said as he held the listless Red Condensation Monster.

The little red monster was red all over, its fins were throbbing, and its half-bulged eyes seemed to have accepted its fate...

More than a dozen general-level elders in his family were killed instantly. Whoever came here would be in despair!
Wu Tian and Wu Le were stunned watching this scene.

This is too fierce. There are at least 10 to 20 big red spirits beside the small red spirit monster. You managed to kill them all by yourself in the time it takes us to pee?

Too fierce!!
The two of them had been bewitched before and had never seen how Lin Lan and his five companions won the fight. They thought that the five of them had joined forces to attack a mermaid...

They didn't see the bodies of those shrimp soldiers and crab generals, and thought they had all run away. The reason was that they were stored in Lin Lan's storage space...

Lin Lan’s main point is that even a few flies are still meat.

Those who had never seen Lin Lan fight had thought that it would be the kind of fight that would last until the sky was dark and the earth was dark, and then Lin Lan would win with great difficulty. This really refreshed their three views.

Killing more than a dozen warriors in a few seconds? This strength must be that of a super-class magician!

This is sure!
