Sixth Ring Wizard

Chapter 93 Cruelty

Ives took a step back and then said, "Now it's my turn."

He took a deep breath, and then a sound came from his body, and he transformed into a shadow and rushed out.

Kalim reacted quickly, almost instinctively shifting the position of the greatsword, but a spray of blood still appeared.

The next moment, Ives appeared beside Kalim, his longsword unstained by blood.

Kalim looked down and saw a bloody hole in his ribs, from which blood was flowing.

His heavy armor was pierced through; he didn't even see Ives's sword strike clearly.

Kalim clutched his wound, enduring the pain as he slipped away from his original spot and leaned against the carriage behind him.

Ives praised, "Very good reaction, or rather, your instinctive reaction is very good. Your eyes probably couldn't have seen my sword strike, but your body instinctively sensed the direction of danger, so you avoided a fatal blow and barely survived."

Kalim spat out a mouthful of blood, then without saying a word, gripped his longsword with both hands again and launched an attack, slashing at Ivis.

Because his wound was still bleeding, his jump caused the blood to gush out even faster.

His sword strike was even more powerful than before, and Ives had to grip the sword with both hands to receive the attack.

The next second, Ivis disappeared, and then a wound appeared on Kalim's left wrist; his armor had been pierced.

Ives didn't seem to be in a hurry to kill him. Holding his longsword, he laughed and said, "It would be a real pity to kill you with one strike. After all, I don't usually even have the chance to curry favor with someone as important as you."

After he finished speaking, he struck again with his sword, injuring Kalim's knee once more.

Kalim immediately knelt down, using his greatsword to support himself.

Ives seemed very displeased with his appearance and immediately added another sword strike, crippling Kalim's other leg.

Kalim was completely unable to support himself and collapsed to his knees.

Kalim was panting heavily, but didn't utter a sound.

"If you had agreed to invest some money in that project I mentioned, you wouldn't be dead now, and you would also have a share of these goods." Ives spoke casually, as if chatting with a friend.

Meanwhile, the fighting between the army and the caravans continued.

The caravan's guards were already struggling to hold out. In some places, the defenses had been breached, and large numbers of soldiers rushed in, killing anyone they saw, amidst a chorus of screams.

"I will not stoop to your level. Duke Theodore was involved too?" Kalim looked up, only managing to stay upright by leaning on his greatsword.

Ives shook his head and said, "Of course not. He looks down on such small businesses and disdains doing them."

"Let them go..." Kalim was speaking when suddenly his eyes widened. He looked down and saw the blade of a longsword protruding from his chest.

Ivis drew his longsword and coldly watched Kalim fall helplessly, his eyes gradually losing their luster.

He sneered, then shouted to the soldiers around him, "Hurry up, don't let a single one escape!"

Herag stood calmly behind a carriage, wearing light armor and chewing on smoked fish.

Ed crouched on the ground, his face filled with terror. "Sir, let's run!"

"Escape?" Herag laughed. "Look around, we're surrounded. There are archers everywhere. If you run out, you'll be shot through the head. If it's a skilled archer, he'll even shoot an arrow into your eye, and then the arrow will turn your head into mush."

As he spoke, he tore off another piece of fish from the smoked fish and swallowed it in one gulp.

"What...what should we do..." Ed was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan when he saw that Herag was still in the mood to eat fish.

Hrag was naturally in no hurry. These people posed no threat to him, and he could leave whenever he wanted.

He had just watched the battle between Kalim and Ivis, and also witnessed Kalim's death.

Herag did not offer any assistance. If it weren't for that idiot Kalim, so many people in the caravan wouldn't have died, so naturally he wouldn't have helped him.

As a businessman who has been trading for many years, Luo Kui is very clear about the rules of these industries.

If they leave the goods behind, they'll only lose a lot of money at most, but at least they'll be alive, and the people in the caravan will survive.

As long as you're alive, you have a chance to earn it back.

But that idiot Kalim not only recognized Ives, but he also said it out loud in public.

Now Ives had no choice but to kill everyone to silence them.

His initial goal was simply to take advantage of the situation; he never intended to kill everyone, as that would have caused him a lot of trouble.

But now, with Kalim's actions, he has no choice but to take the risk and start the massacre.

Some of the adventurers in the caravan sensed something was wrong and prepared to slip away in the chaos.

As soon as he charged in one direction, a volley of arrows came flying at him, and he instantly turned into a hedgehog and fell to the ground.

Ives is determined to kill everyone this time; he won't let a single person escape.

If this affair is exposed and Duke Theodore finds out, he will surely execute him in public to protect his reputation.

As Herag ate smoked fish, the defensive line behind him was breached, and a group of soldiers rushed in.

They spotted Helag eating fish immediately, and strange expressions appeared on their faces. Then they rushed towards Helag with various weapons.

Herag sighed, "Ice Shield! Mana Shield! Dark Energy Shield!"

Three shields instantly appeared on his body, surrounded by blue, white, and black, completely enveloping Hellagur.

Herag drew his longsword and looked at the group of soldiers.

He didn't prepare any magic, saving every bit of mana he could, and avoiding wasting mana on battles that could be resolved with a sword.

The soldiers stopped abruptly, looking at Hrag enveloped in a shield, and were momentarily at a loss.

Herag didn't care what they thought. He charged forward with his sword at incredible speed, and a large number of the soldiers fell on the spot.

The soldiers launched a counterattack, but swords and blades were completely ineffective against Herag, unable to even break through a single shield.

A volley of arrows came flying, but they bounced off Helag's shield and had no effect whatsoever.

In just a few seconds, the place was littered with the corpses of soldiers.

The other soldiers who witnessed Hrag's killing spree were filled with fear.

Most of them were unaware of the existence of wizards, let alone having witnessed magic firsthand.

Seeing that all attacks were ineffective against Hrag, a sense of despair rose in his heart, and the next thought was to retreat.
