this mage is dangerous

Cai Lisi is a mid-level mage. Although he comes from a noble family, he belongs to a side line. Fortunately, there are relatively few talented people in his generation. He also happens to have a talent for casting spells. Although his talent is average, fortunately the family has enough quota.

He was also lucky enough to enter Giles College and become a spell caster.

Although Nether has been preaching and advocating that talent is not absolute, not everyone is Born Iolum.

Cai Lisi was not promoted to the mid-level until graduation, and this is the actual situation of the vast majority of people in Giles College.

Being able to learn the existing magic of Gilles Academy within five years can be said to be a genius. On this basis, improving the magic and creating arcane magic is simply impossible in his opinion. However, there is such a thing.

kind of 'monster'.

Although the level of magic is a bit poor, Xianyu also has a dream. Arcanist is his pursuit. The reputation of the City Guards is somewhat bad. The descendants of nobles rarely choose the City Guards. However, the City Guards are highly profitable. Only in this way can he

Only then do you have enough money to conduct magic experiments and deduce new magic.

Before graduation, Cai Lisi finally found a position in the city guard army with the help of some connections in his family, which he felt was a good position.

Due to his status as a mage from Giles College, he climbed to the position of squad leader in just two years.

However, reality is often crueler than ideals. Severton, which has not been attacked for more than a hundred years, will enter a wartime state.

As a third-rate spellcaster, he was assigned to join the army mage to provide magic assistance. When the Kuo-Toa pierced the companion next to him with a spear, he suddenly found that death was so close to him.

Cai Lisi was so frightened that he fell to the ground, and the auxiliary magic he originally prepared was interrupted. Fear occupied his mind at this moment, and he was not even aware of the backlash of magic.

He trembled and forced himself to stand up and continue fighting, but his hands and feet moved back unconsciously.

Suddenly Cai Lisi's body froze, as if he was being stared at by something terrifying.

Cai Lisi turned his head slightly, and through the corner of his eye, he noticed a dark shadow vaguely behind them.

Although the night was dark, with his strong mental perception, he knew that the dark figure's eyes were locked on him.

War Supervisor!

Suddenly there was a "whoosh" sound, and a soldier not far away fell to the ground with a crossbow stuck in his chest. Apparently, the soldier was shot because he turned around to run away in fear.

The surrounding soldiers glanced fearfully at the black shadow hidden in the darkness behind them, then drew their bows and arrows and continued to attack the monsters outside the city.

Cai Lisi also quickly stood up, then took a deep breath and continued to cast spells to bless those nearby.

After a night of fighting, finally in the first ray of sunlight at dawn, the Kuo-Toa fishmen retreated after leaving behind countless corpses. Severton blocked the monster's attack, and the Kuo-Toa water monster was also killed under the city wall.

Creatures in the Underdark are not adapted to the sun on the surface, and sunlight will harm most creatures in the Underdark.

Everyone watched the monsters recede like a tide, and the guards cheered warmly from the city wall.

Joseph Gusta also showed a rare smile, and the most difficult first step was finally passed.

All of Nether's elite troops have been transferred to the front line. Except for part of the temporarily formed defense forces, the rest are made up of various family guards.

Although the City Guard is also part of the military establishment, it is under the direct jurisdiction of the Parliament of Nobles. The last defensive battle in Severton was more than a hundred years ago. Now the City Guard has completely become a place where aristocratic heirs with mixed seniority check in to work.

Basically, it's all rotten from top to bottom, and it has no combat effectiveness at all.

The guards of the nobles are better than them. Although the guards are individually stronger, it depends more on the cooperation between the teams. In particular, the grudges between the nobles are also a big problem.

Joseph Gusta can lead such a group of people, and his commander level is simply the maximum.

With the first victory as a foundation, subsequent commands will be much easier.

Only a soldier who has seen blood can be called a warrior. The first battle is also the battle with the highest death rate among recruits.

Fortunately, it was a defensive battle. With the city wall as a support, these new recruits could barely ensure that their morale did not collapse.

As the monsters receded, people began to walk out of the door one after another, cheering for the heroes who guarded them.

Although the people below began to cheer and celebrate, several senior officials were not in a good mood.

Because they got the information that the monsters that broke through the front line of defense were not kuo-toa fish and water monsters, but a group of lizard-men.

As the monsters retreated, the guards began to clean the battlefield and rearrange traps.

While cleaning the battlefield, several different monster corpses were also discovered.

Because his mental energy was exhausted and his head felt like it was about to burst, he fought against his headache and joined those who were cleaning up the battlefield.

"This is? A black lizard man?"

Cai Lisi was a little surprised.

This is a strong and muscular lizard man. Different from common lizard men, it has black scales.

The lizard-man was so huge that Cai Lisi estimated that the monster stood 9 feet (3 meters) tall.

In addition to his strong body, he also had thick scales. If it weren't for the arrow that happened to be in his eye socket, he estimated that none of the arrows currently available to humans would be able to hurt him at all.

Cai Lisi saw a lot of arrows that had been bounced off next to the lizard man, and there happened to be an arrow stuck in his eye socket, which went directly into his head.

Cai Lisi could only lament that this monster was really unlucky. If it hadn't been for the arrow in the eye, they wouldn't have been able to find it. Besides the Kuo Tao fishmen, there were other monsters.

Soon the black lizard man was carried in front of Joseph Gusta.

"Black Scale Lizard Tribe!"

Joseph Gusta recognized this monster at a glance.

Deeply sunken eye sockets and a flat nose give it a skeleton-like appearance.

"The Black Scale Lizards are proud and fierce warriors who value heroic deeds and personal glory."

Joseph Gusta said calmly: "They will fight independently in an unorganized manner, unless the leader can force them to cooperate in a short period of time, because some of the black scales are almost difficult to detect at night."

Although his face was dull, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. He was secretly glad that last night, one of them was defensive and counterattacked. Even if the situation was good, they relied on the city wall to defend and did not go out of the city to attack.

Yesterday, there were black-scaled lizards hiding nearby, and if they left the city rashly, they might take the opportunity to break open the city gate.

Of course, the captains next to him also guessed it, and their expressions were a little ugly, and then they all looked at Joseph Gusta with admiration.

Joseph Gusta raised his head and looked outside the city, his face expressionless and he didn't know what he was thinking.

As for the other side, Bone yawned and walked out of the laboratory.

Due to the impact of last night's battle, the magic elements within a radius of almost two or three kilometers became somewhat disordered. Boyn had to spend several times more mental energy on maintenance than usual. The consumption was a bit too high, so he quickly came out to take a breather.

At this time, Lehman came over with the latest information, "Boss, here you are!"

Boen's eyes lit up, he took Lehman's intelligence information, and then he slightly raised the corner of his mouth and secretly said, "It's figured out!"

"Boss, according to your instructions, I paid special attention to the situation around the slave trading market, and indeed found that many people were missing."

Lehman said with a serious look, "Our people found blood stains when they sneaked into the house, but the people inside disappeared for no reason. Judging from the blood stains left at the scene, they should have died on the spot and then been dragged away."
