Physical mage, challenge me to a solo duel!

"Left side!"

"Be careful to dodge the fireballs."

Jiang Yue's voice kept giving instructions.

"Pay attention to the coordination of each wind blade to force it to reposition."

"Seize the opportunity and behead him."

"very good."

Looking at the fallen monster corpse, Jiang Yue nodded in satisfaction.

Hu Lili's pretty face was a little pale, whether it was because of excessive magic consumption or because she had just ended the life of a magical beast with her own hands.

"Hiss... Old Wang, learn from this, that's what you call guidance. When I was hitting you just now, you didn't say a word, and now I'm all disfigured." Qi Xiaohao complained, covering his bloodied cheek.

He just fought a magical beast alone. Although a king general was there to support him, the king general didn't give him the detailed guidance that Jiang Yue did. He didn't say a word the whole time and just made sure that Qi Xiaohao wouldn't die.

This caused Qi Xiaohao to go through a lot of trouble to deal with the monster, and he even got injured in the process.

Wang Jiang sneered, "Want me to personally instruct you now?"

Qi Xiaohao pursed his lips.

At this moment, Wang Yi and Chen Zhengkai walked over from a distance, with Chen Zhengkai dragging a fiery red tail in his hand.

When Wang Yi saw that Qi Xiaohao was injured, he quickly cast a healing beam on him.

Jiang Yue glanced at the corpses around him, sniffed slightly, and then ordered, "Lily, Xiao Hao, Zheng Kai, the three of you hurry up and harvest the magic crystals and fox tails, then we need to move quickly."

The wounds had almost healed. Qi Xiaohao shook the blood off his hands, then dragged over two corpses. He first wiped the blood off his hands on the soft fur, then pulled out his dagger and clumsily and awkwardly cut the fox tails to extract the magic crystals.

Chen Zhengkai handed the fox tail in his hand to Wang Yi, and then stepped forward to dissect the monster's corpse.

Hu Lili's face turned even paler, but she still gritted her teeth and walked towards the monster she had just killed.

Wang Yi silently counted; they had hunted down a total of five magical beasts in this wave.

This is the third wave of monsters they have encountered since morning. Because the first two waves of monsters were guarded by relatively strong mid-level monsters, they have not made a move out of caution.

Until they encountered this group of novice Crimson Fire Foxes.

The group of red fire foxes numbered fifteen, making it a small group. Although it outnumbered several people, the red fire foxes were timid by nature.

After the two sides made contact, Jiang Yue and Wang Jiang each killed one of the red fire foxes first. The remaining red fire foxes realized that they could not win, so they scattered and fled.

Under Jiang Yue's orders, Wang Yi finally managed to trap three Crimson Fire Foxes in a light cage, which he then used to train Qi Xiaohao, Hu Lili, and Chen Zhengkai.

Then Wang Yi and Jiang Yue, each responsible for looking after one person, simultaneously engaged in three solo battles between novice mages and novice magical beasts, the kind that were all-out and reckless.

After this unfair battle, the team collected a total of five magic crystals from the low-level magical beast Crimson Fire Fox and four fox tails.

Besides magic crystals, the fur and tails of the Crimson Fire Fox are also valuable commodities. However, due to their lack of experience, the Crimson Fire Foxes they hunted were either too badly wounded or had their fur destroyed, making them incomplete.

As for the one Qi Xiaohao was facing, even its tail was burned off, adding another loss.

"There are five magic crystals in total. The Crimson Fire Fox has two spells: a common-grade Fireball and a rare-grade Fireball Barrage. Hu Lili and Chen Zhengkai, each of you get two crystals. Absorb the magic within them as soon as possible to enhance your strength. Xiao Hao doesn't need rare-grade attack spells for now, so he doesn't need them."

Jiang Yue began distributing the spoils of war, and Qi Xiaohao nodded in agreement.

His control over fireballs was...very average, so he might as well not have this rare-grade fireball barrage.

After distributing the magic crystals, Jiang Yue reminded her, "Lily, you're not in a stable state of mind right now and you're too nervous. Wait until you calm down before considering absorbing the magic from the crystals, so as not to affect the success rate of absorption."

Hu Lili nodded slightly.

Her face was still somewhat pale, clearly indicating that ending a life with her own hands was still difficult for her.

After all, Hu Lili was a high school student who had never even killed a chicken before.

Fortunately, despite her fear, Hu Lili, under Jiang Yue's guidance, still managed to complete the task relatively smoothly and did not show any mercy.

Of course, Hu Lili's strong reaction may also be due to the fact that the Red Fire Fox looks quite cute.

If it were a fierce, cruel, or ugly monster, I believe Hu Hu Lili would be able to overcome her psychological barriers and act more decisively without feeling so much psychological pressure.

It has to be said that judging people by their appearance is still effective even when applied to Warcraft.

After harvesting the spoils, the group quickly cleaned up the battlefield and gathered the remaining corpses of the Crimson Fire Fox together.

Immediately afterward, Jiang Yue used the Bone-Corroding Fire Serpent to completely incinerate the Crimson Fire Fox's remains, and then the group quietly left the place.

Based on their discussion yesterday, the group decided to first use low-level magical beasts to improve their experience in fighting magical beasts, while also absorbing suitable magic crystals to enhance the team's strength.

The team's ultimate goal is to be able to safely hunt down relatively powerful mid-level magical beasts.

For example, an unidentified leopard with a broken tail.

After they left, they found a relatively safe place to rest and eat for a while.

Then Hu Lili and Chen Zhengkai prepared to start absorbing the magic crystal.

After each person used up their two magic crystals, Hu Lili successfully absorbed the rare-grade fireball barrage.

Unfortunately, Chen Zhengkai gained nothing. He only knew the ordinary-grade fireball spell, and failing to obtain the ability to fireball in succession was already a failure.

Chen Zhengkai was clearly disappointed. These two magic crystals, which possessed rare-grade magic, would be worth at least 30,000 yuan in a specialty store. However, after he absorbed them, they didn't even make a ripple.

Chen Zhengkai's family was of modest means and didn't have the extra money to buy magic crystals. The magic he absorbed was entirely due to the ten magic crystals the school gave him at the beginning of the semester.

"It's normal that the two magic crystals didn't absorb any rare-grade magic," Jiang Yue comforted Chen Zhengkai, then took out a map and checked it.

"At our current pace, if we travel for another half day, we should reach the central region before 6 PM." Jiang Yue carefully read the notes on the map: "After arriving in the central region, the number and rank of monsters will increase significantly."

Qi Xiaohao, chewing on a piece of beef, asked in surprise, "What? So, we've been here for two days, but we haven't even left the starting village yet?"
