Full-Time Magister: The Ruler of Wind and Rain
Chapter 53 Preparing to Depart
Three days later, "everything" was ready. Of course, "everything" meant that Wang Yu had prepared a complete set of wilderness survival gear and knowledge of the monsters of Cangshan Mountain, while Lingling had prepared ample intelligence support and snacks for the vacation.
That's right. After Wang Yu communicated with Old Man Bao, Old Man Bao also agreed that considering Wang Yu's personal strength was not yet strong enough, he would not take Lingling to the outside of Anjie for the time being. However, demons are extremely sensitive to cell phone signals. Using communication devices outside Anjie is basically equivalent to launching a group taunt against the demons within a few kilometers. Therefore, Lingling cannot provide remote support as she can in the city of Modu. She can only have a vacation at the foot of Cangshan Mountain and by Erhai Lake.
After making all the necessary preparations, the two boarded the plane and headed to Dali City. Dali City is located at the foot of Cangshan Mountain and on the shore of Erhai Lake, making it a very comfortable place to live. Wild animal incursions are rare in the area, and the activity range of wild animals, demons, and humans is basically divided by the strong winds of Cangshan Mountain, which can be said to be a natural barrier drawn by nature.
As soon as he got off the plane, Wang Yu felt a stronger wind element aura than in Shanghai. This place seemed quite suitable for wind mages to live in. He hadn't seen any related advertisements before. If he became rich in the future, he could consider building some houses here and setting up a mountain resort.
Lingling and Wang Yu rented a villa near the foot of the mountain in the south of the city as a temporary base. Wang Yu spread out the equipment he had brought in the yard, sorting it out and preparing what he would need for his first trip up the mountain. After resting for a night, he headed towards Cangshan Mountain, accompanied by the dew.
The safe zone of Dali City wasn't far from the city center, and within minutes Wang Yu had crossed it and arrived in the perilous mountains. There were animal trails in the forest, and he carefully climbed upwards along them, paying close attention. Soon enough, Wang Yu encountered the fierce wind mentioned in the intelligence report. Fortunately, Lingling was truly a brilliant mind; after helping him understand the situation of the fierce wind, she found a way to counteract its effects: wearing a powerful wind demon stone would solve the problem.
This sounds simple, but 99% of people in this magical world wouldn't think of it, just as normal people in the scientific world wouldn't do something like carrying an engine on their head through traffic and praying that a car won't hit them.
But that's the wonder of the magical world. The energy emanating from the Wind Magic Stone would naturally dissipate in an ordinary environment, like a harmless breeze. However, under the onslaught of the gale, this energy, which should have dissipated, was compressed into a range of less than ten centimeters around Wang Yu's body, forming a powerful opposing airflow. With the gale canceling each other out, Wang Yu himself did not feel the sensation described by the Hunter Mage as "not only is it difficult to move in the gale, but it also feels like being pierced by wind blades at all times."
While fierce winds are a test for humanity, they are also the best reward for wind elemental creatures. The abundance of wind elements has led to the emergence of a large number of elemental demons and elemental derivative demons. The former are represented by the local common wind lantern demons and the recently appeared wind erosion demons, which tend to live in places with dense elements; the latter are scattered throughout the entire Cangshan Mountain, including servant-level white brocade wind birds and wind musk deer, and warrior-level frost-winged wind butterflies, wind-riding serows, and blue wind leopards, making the entire mountainside a burial ground for hunter mages.
Having traveled less than two kilometers, Wang Yu had already killed three servant-level demons with his wind blades. The good news was that the fluctuations caused by wind magic would be quickly dissipated in the gale; the bad news was that few of the demons here were not good at resisting wind elemental attacks. The wind blades that could originally kill with one strike now often flew past without achieving any effect, forcing Wang Yu to switch to water blades or even storm waves to solve the problem.
As noon approached, Wang Yu was unable to stop and rest; he had been targeted by a Green Wind Leopard. Its wide eyes gleamed with a ferocious gray-green light; the Green Wind Leopard was clearly after Wang Yu.
We encountered a warrior-level creature not far into the mountains, which was quite frightening. If warrior-level creatures are so densely distributed, how do slave-level creatures survive?
There's no time to think about these profound biological questions right now. The Azure Wind Leopard is still staring intently at Wang Yu from a distance. With the amplification of wind element, this thing is really fast when it runs. Even though it's almost a hundred meters away now, if the Azure Wind Leopard launches an attack, it can pounce on Wang Yu's face in five seconds.
There was no way to avoid it now. Once Wang Yu made up his mind, he grabbed his weapon and charged!
With his feet stepping on the wind tracks, Wang Yu charged towards the Azure Wind Leopard, his speed no slower than the monster!
The Azure Wind Leopard was also bewildered. The Cangshan Mountains were rarely visited by humans, and the beasts there were neither afraid of people nor would they chase after anyone they saw. Only when it saw Wang Yu charging towards it did it leap into the air and charge head-on. The leopard was probably wondering why, after dominating the mountain for so many years, nothing had ever dared to come near it. Shouldn't everything be fleeing for its life?
To be honest, colliding with a giant leopard-like monster that is over three meters long and weighs six or seven hundred kilograms at extremely high speed is more like playing sumo wrestling with a mountain gorilla in the Ugandan jungle, or jumping out from the side of a national highway in the middle of the night to scare a dump truck.
Wang Yu naturally wouldn't commit such a catastrophic act. He skillfully controlled the wind, and while dealing with the Azure Wind Leopard, he suddenly changed direction, launching an attack from the side and hurling three water blades. However, the Azure Wind Leopard was also a wind-type demon with some intelligence and great agility. It managed to twist off the water blades and then its sharp claws and fangs came fiercely at Wang Yu.
But how could Wang Yu, also a nimble fighter, be foolishly defeated by a clumsy close-combat attack? Taking advantage of the slight weakness after the Azure Wind Leopard's attack missed, he had already completed the depiction of a mid-level spell:
"Wind Plate - Heavenly Net!"
The surrounding gale seemed to vanish for a moment, and a sudden gust of wind arose beneath the Azure Wind Leopard's feet, catching it off guard and hurling it twenty or thirty meters into the air. Although the Azure Wind Leopard couldn't fly, wind magic was still only partially effective against wind demons; the real killing blow was yet to come:
"Storm Wave - Exterminate!"
A dazzling star map lit up, and suddenly a terrifying wave appeared in mid-air. The surging wave crashed against the Azure Wind Leopard, which had just fallen from mid-air, like water bursting its banks. It turned into a flood that instantly flowed down the hillside, sweeping the Azure Wind Leopard, which was still struggling to get up, and rushed down the cliff together.
……
When Wang Yu finally found the Azure Wind Leopard at the foot of the hill after a great deal of effort, the poor leopard had been dead for quite some time, but its fur was still relatively intact. Wang Yu wanted to take it back to the city to see if he could sell it for a good price. Fortunately, the place was not far from Anjie, and Wang Yu used wind rails to lift the leopard's body, quickly returning to Anjie.
After contacting professionals from the Hunter's Alliance to dissect the leopard, they discovered that its claws were of surprisingly good quality and could be used as exotic bones to forge magical artifacts. The other parts were worthless. Wang Yu decided to keep the exotic bones and sell the remaining 50,000 yuan to the Hunter's Alliance to supplement his household income.
