Wizarding Age: I can analyze everything

Chapter 16 Horned Monster

In just a short while, Xu Yunfeng's apprentice robe became tattered, and his neck, arms, and other exposed skin were covered with scratches from fingernails, leaving trails of blood.

"Medicine."

Speaking incoherently, Xu Yunfeng stumbled to his feet and rushed forward, but fell to the ground again after only a few steps.

As if he had fallen hard, his howls of pain grew louder and louder, the agony they contained sending chills down one's spine.

Pei Ze frowned slightly, turned around and left, intending to inform the teacher.

We were classmates after all; I couldn't just stand by and watch someone die.

It's a pity I haven't learned the teleportation spell yet, otherwise I could just use a spell to summon someone and save myself the trouble of running errands.

Seeing Pei Ze leave, Qi Shan assumed he was trying to escape and immediately sneered, "Pei Ze, are you scared?"

However, before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a low growl that sounded like the roar of a wild beast.

Suddenly, Xu Yunfeng, who was not far away, began to writhe violently. His whole body swelled up as if it had been inflated, and his skin burst open one after another, spurting blood.

You could even hear the crackling and popping sounds coming from inside his body.

In the blink of an eye, a living person turned into a monster nearly three meters tall.

The monster's entire body was covered in so much skin that it was almost impossible to find a single patch of intact skin; its bulging muscles and tendons were exposed, dripping with blood, making it nauseating.

Two pale, sharp horns on its head pointed diagonally towards the sky.

A faint smell of sulfur began to permeate the air.

"roar!"

The monster roared to the sky, its scarlet eyes coldly gazing at the surrounding wizard apprentices.

Only then did the people around them snap out of their daze and scream as they scattered in all directions.

The female student who was closest to the camera also reacted at this moment, her face pale as she ran backward. Unfortunately, she hadn't run far when she felt a sharp pain in the back of her head, and she seemed to hear the sound of a watermelon bursting in her ears. The next moment, her consciousness was plunged into eternal darkness.

Pei Ze and Qi Shan, who were standing nearby, saw clearly that the horned monster caught up with the female student in a few strides and slapped her head so hard that it exploded like an egg, with blood and brain matter splattering everywhere.

Even more terrifying was that with the force of this palm strike, countless bone fragments shot out like shotgun bullets in an umbrella shape, blasting the ground into countless holes.

hiss!

Pei Ze and Qi Shan both gasped.

What the hell is this power?!

Even knights aren't all that great!

Official knights are classified into four levels according to their strength, from lowest to highest: beginner, intermediate, advanced, and peak.

The physique of a junior knight is approximately eight to ten times that of an ordinary person.

Intermediate knights are eleven to thirteen times more powerful than ordinary people.

Judging from the power of the horned monster's attack just now, its physique has definitely reached the level of a mid-level knight!

run!

Without hesitation, Pei Ze and Qi Shan turned and ran away at the same time.

A mid-level knight requires at least a level two wizard apprentice to handle; a level one wizard apprentice would most likely be killed in the process.

They didn't want to die a tragic death like that female student.

Coincidentally, both of them chose the direction of the garden area.

However, upon closer inspection, it's not surprising. After all, each herb garden in the Garden District is guarded by a formal wizard year-round. Once you get there, you won't be afraid even if a horned monster comes after you.

However, perhaps because the two of them were too conspicuous, the horned monster looked around and finally chose them as its target, chasing after them aggressively.

Qi Shan turned around when he heard the noise, his face turned pale, and he cursed under his breath.

He tried his best to speed up, but was soon surprised to find that he was actually slower than Pei Ze!

How is that possible?

A look of surprise and uncertainty flashed in Qi Shan's eyes.

He has already constructed five will runes, and his physique is four times stronger than that of an ordinary person. How could Pei Ze be more powerful than him?

call!

Just as they were wondering what was going on, a strong gust of wind suddenly came from behind.

Pei Ze and Qi Shan's expressions changed simultaneously, and without hesitation, they leaped to the side.

boom!

The massive black shadow slammed into the spot where the two had been standing, sending shards of rock flying in all directions like bullets!

Amidst the billowing smoke and dust, the horned monster stood like a giant wall in front of Pei Ze and Qi Shan.

Despite its bulky appearance, it was incredibly fast, easily catching up with the two of them.

Qi Shan scrambled to his feet, looking at the strong and ferocious monster before him, a look of panic flashing across his face.

"No, this monster is way too fast for me, I can't outrun it at all!"

"What do we do?!"

Qi Shan's mind raced, his gaze suddenly sweeping over Pei Ze on the other side. His eyes flickered uncertainly for a few seconds before he gritted his teeth and uttered a few syllables in a flash.

Pei Ze, who was not far away, suddenly felt his body tighten. The next second, he was lifted off the ground and flew towards the horned monster.

Qi Shan didn't even glance at it, and took the opportunity to turn around and run away.

He doesn't need to run faster than the monster, he just needs to run faster than Pei Ze!

However, the next second, an invisible giant hand suddenly grabbed Qi Shan's body, lifted him up, and threw him toward the horned monster.

The Mage's Hand!

Qi Shan's expression changed drastically, and he turned his head in horror, only to meet Pei Ze's icy gaze.

The latter had somehow fallen back to the ground.

How is that possible?!

Qi Shan wore an expression of disbelief.

The maximum distance of the Mage's Hand is ten meters, and he was clearly more than ten meters away from Pei Ze. The Mage's Hand should not have been able to touch him at all!

However, Qi Shan no longer had the time to think about this problem.

The horned monster, having discovered its prey had willingly come to it, let out an excited growl and swung its fist at him fiercely.

Feeling the violent gust of wind rushing towards him, Qi Shan instantly turned pale. He let out a strange cry, pulled a scroll from his pocket, and tore it open violently.

boom!

A rich elemental aura erupted instantly, transforming into a cone-shaped ball of flame that crashed down on the horned monster!

Burning Hand!

First-level spell!

The blazing flames instantly engulfed the upper half of the horned monster.

Under the scorching flames, the horned monster couldn't help but let out a deafening howl of pain, and its punches involuntarily slowed down. But the next second, it continued to advance fiercely, breaking through the flames and heavily striking Qi Shan.

boom!

Qi Shan was thrown out like a kite with a broken string.

While he was still in mid-air, a series of cracking sounds came from his body. It was unknown how many bones broke in that instant. After falling to the ground, he remained motionless.

More than ten meters away, Pei Ze's eye twitched slightly.

If he hadn't used a stun spell to delay the horned monster at the last second and pulled himself back with a mage's hand, he would be the one lying on the ground right now.

However, the situation isn't much better now.

As soon as Qi Shan fell, the horned monster immediately turned its attention to him, roaring as it pounced on him.

Pei Ze took a deep breath, simultaneously manipulating the mage's hand to strike the horned monster while retreating rapidly.

The only good news right now is that the horned monster took a direct hit from the Burning Hand and was seriously injured, so he still has a chance to kill the monster.
