Chapter 167: The arrival of the elemental wizard and the promotion to the fourth-level legend.
After running for hundreds of kilometers, the dark clouds hanging over everyone finally eased a little.
But after breathing a sigh of relief, everyone's expressions became heavy again.
"I wonder how Pei Ze is doing?" the wizard murmured.
Everyone looked at each other, speechless.
Yin Xue bit her lip lightly, her eyes full of worry.
After all, the opponent had defeated a third-level crystallized wizard from the practical faction. No matter how confident they were in Pei Ze's strength, they did not think that Pei Ze could win.
You're lucky to have managed to escape!
At this time, a vague moan suddenly sounded, waking everyone up.
Taking a closer look, it was Ji Sheng who had woken up.
Everyone quickly put Ji Sheng down and leaned against the stone.
After opening his eyes, Ji Sheng coughed violently several times, and then asked in a difficult voice: "Where is this place? Where is Pei Lingjie?" Everyone looked at each other and were
silent for several seconds before Yin Xue began to speak in a low voice.
After hearing what happened, Ji Sheng was stunned for a while and sighed gloomily.
"It was our poor thinking that harmed Pei Ze."
As a person who had personally fought with Pei Lingjie, he knew how terrifying Pei Lingjie was after being fused with evil things.
Even if Pei Lingjie was injured in the battle with him and his strength was weakened, Pei Ze would be almost impossible to match.
Because of the mistakes of the Witch Hunting Troops, the most outstanding talent of the young generation in Dawn City was lost in an alien plane. This fact made Ji Sheng feel extremely heavy.
"Have you requested support?"
Yin Xue nodded: "I have sent a request for help to the nearest colleagues." "
I have looked at the map. The closest ones are colleagues who are performing tasks in Panshan City. They should be on their way here. Yes."
"That's good."
Ji Sheng breathed a sigh of relief.
Now we can only hope that Pei Ze can support him for a longer time, and when the reinforcements arrive, they will immediately go to support him.
There might still be some hope of saving Pei Ze.
At this time, Ji Sheng's expression suddenly changed, and he raised his head and looked into the distance.
Others seemed to feel something, and looked towards the horizon in the distance.
At the end of the sky, a wisp of fiery red was approaching very quickly. It was as fast as lightning. It covered several kilometers in almost the blink of an eye and arrived in front of everyone.
Only then did they realize that the fiery red was actually a blazing flame.
After the flames hit the ground, they shrank with a hiss and quickly condensed into a human form.
In the blink of an eye, a tall man with flaming red hair who looked to be in his early thirties appeared in front of everyone.
Elemental wizard!
Ji Sheng and others were all shocked and immediately overjoyed.
I thought it would be good to have two or three level three wizards coming to help, but I didn't expect that an elemental wizard would come in person.
With an elemental wizard of at least level 4 taking action, defeating Pei Lingjie was completely easy.
"Is it you who are asking for help?"
The red-haired wizard glanced at everyone and spoke in a deep voice.
"Yes, sir." Ji Sheng stood up with difficulty. He wanted to speak, but he hesitated.
The red-haired wizard glanced at him, didn't care, and threw him a token.
When Ji Sheng caught the token and looked at it, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Holding the token in both hands, he respectfully presented it back to the red-haired wizard.
"It turns out to be Mr. Wu Ping. I was disrespectful."
Wu Ping!
Yin Xue next to her felt a chill in her heart.
She had an impression of this name. He seemed to be one of the two deputy captains of the third division of the Silver Light Legion, the leading expert among the fourth-level wizards.
It is said that among the entire fourth-level wizards in Dawn City, he is strong enough to be firmly ranked among the top five.
They didn't expect that such a strong man would come to support them.
Wu Ping put away the token and said calmly: "There is no need to say any unnecessary polite words. Let's talk about your situation." "
Yes." Ji Sheng knew it was not time to delay, so he quickly told what happened.
After hearing this, Wu Ping raised his eyebrows slightly.
A third-level wizard fused with evil objects?
Moreover, the use of the power of evil objects seems to have progressed to a certain extent, otherwise it would be impossible to defeat a third-level crystal wizard.
Wu Ping was naturally aware of the Dawn Council's purge of the Pei family, and even personally participated in the planning and arrangements.
But now it seems that there are some flaws in their plan.
The progress of the Pei family's research on evil objects was obviously much higher than they expected.
There are probably not a few people like Pei Lingjie.
It seems that this cleaning mission is likely to have some twists and turns and will not go as smoothly as they expected.
For a moment, many thoughts flashed through Wu Ping's mind, but his face remained calm and he nodded slightly.
"I understand the situation. You go back to Red Maple City first. As for Pei Ze, I will take care of it."
Halfway through his words, Wu Ping suddenly paused, with a strange look on his face.
Everyone couldn't help but be confused when they saw this.
"Sir, what's wrong?" Yin Xue suppressed the anxiety in her heart and asked quickly.
She desperately hoped that Wu Ping would leave as soon as possible and find Pei Ze earlier, so that the latter would have more hope of survival.
Wu Ping glanced at Yin Xue and said with a faint smile: "It seems that you are worried for nothing, and there is no need for me to take action. The young man named Pei Ze is much more powerful than you imagined." Everyone was stunned
. It took a while to realize what Wu Ping meant, and he quickly turned around to look.
Sure enough, a figure in the distance was approaching very quickly.
It is undoubtedly Pei Ze!
Ji Sheng and others were stunned on the spot, their eyes widening in astonishment.
Pei Ze is fine!
Where is Pei Lingjie?
Could it be that Pei Ze got rid of him smoothly?
It wasn't until Pei Ze came closer that everyone came back to their senses as if they were waking up from a dream.
Yin Xue walked forward quickly, couldn't help grabbing Pei Ze's arm, and looked him up and down.
"Junior, are you not injured?"
"I'm fine." Pei Ze smiled slightly.
Seeing that Pei Ze didn't look injured, Yin Xue breathed a sigh of relief, but then she looked confused like everyone else.
"Junior, where is Pei Lingjie?"
"I have already killed him."
"Ah?!"
Including Yin Xue, everyone widened their eyes almost in unison, showing expressions as if they had heard something incredible.
Pei Lingjie died at the hands of Pei Ze?
How can this be? !
That is a powerful enemy that even Ji Sheng is not a match for!
Although Pei Ze is powerful, it is really unbelievable to say that he can kill Pei Lingjie.
But if you want to say that Pei Ze lied, that's not true. You can tell this kind of thing as soon as you check it. Even lying is useless, and there is no need for Pei Ze to do so.
"I feel the breath of the magic sealing array on your body. It seems that you have indeed cleaned up the evil things." Wu Ping suddenly spoke, looking at Pei Ze with admiration.
Yin Xue introduced in due course: "This is Mr. Wu Ping, deputy commander of the third division of the Silver Light Legion."
Deputy commander of the third division of the Silver Light Legion?
That's at least a level four wizard!
Pei Ze's expression suddenly straightened up, and he saluted Wu Ping by pressing his chest.
"I have met you, sir."
Wu Ping waved his hand and said with a smile: "I have heard your name many times. Now it seems that you are much better than the rumors say. I am more and more optimistic about your future growth."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes suddenly changed when they looked at Pei Ze.
Even Wu Ping said so, so it should be certain that Pei Ze killed Pei Lingjie.
Suddenly, Pei Ze's image in their hearts became more and more unfathomable.
Even a third-level wizard who has been fused with evil objects and whose strength has greatly increased can be killed. What level does Pei Ze's true strength reach?
Even Ji Sheng was filled with wonder and admiration for Pei Ze.
Besides being shocked, everyone felt a little envious deep in their hearts.
After all, not everyone can be favored by an elemental wizard.
Wu Ping plays an important role in Chenxi City and is already an undoubted big shot.
If his words were spread back to Chenxi City, it would definitely cause quite a stir.
"Your Excellency, that's a compliment." Pei Ze said calmly.
It wasn't that he was being falsely modest, but that he knew that luck actually played a big part in killing Pei Lingjie this time.
Pei Lingjie severely wounded Ji Sheng. He was already seriously injured and his combat effectiveness was greatly reduced.
Even so, he almost failed to defeat Pei Lingjie.
As long as there is a difference of one point, he will have no choice but to run away.
However, Wu Ping only thought that he was being humble and looked at him with increasing admiration.
"I will personally report this matter to Councilor Ji Zhang. You have helped the Witch Hunting Troops such a big favor, and you must be credited with the credit."
Wu Ping smiled, nodded, and looked in the direction he came from.
"You guys go back to Red Maple City first. I still have something to deal with."
After all, it involves evil things. Even if he knows that the evil thoughts have been dealt with by Pei Ze, he still has to check it in person, otherwise he will not feel reassured.
Everyone responded and watched Wu Ping turn into flames and rise into the sky, quickly disappearing at the end of the sky.
After Wu Ping left, Ji Sheng walked up to Pei Ze and said sincerely: "Pei Ze, thank you very much this time. If it weren't for you, the consequences would have been disastrous." The witches and wizards nodded in agreement
.
At this time, they were extremely lucky that Ji Sheng invited Pei Ze to join.
If it weren't for Pei Ze, they might have become nutrients for evil things now, and even their souls wouldn't be able to escape.
Pei Ze waved his hand indifferently: "This is originally part of the mission."
Ji Sheng and the others were not polite, so they smiled and nodded, keeping this in mind.
Considering that Ji Sheng was seriously injured, everyone did not stay long. After finding the place where the giant eagle was parked, they set off back to Red Maple City.
Even at the critical moment when the Dongshuang Theocracy was about to be captured, the action of purging the Pei family caused quite a stir.
After all, the Pei family is one of the five major wizard families in Dawn City, with many members serving in various important positions. Even the Silver Light Legion has many wizards from the Pei family, or wizards with other surnames close to the Pei family.
Affected by the purge operation, Red Maple City's attack on Winter Frost Theocracy has slowed down a lot.
Fortunately, at this time, the Winter Frost Theocracy was already on its last legs. Even if it had an extra chance to breathe, it would only prolong its destruction.
Even if Honglian City is a little dissatisfied, he can only complain.
July 10, 14525 in the astral calendar.
The purge of the Pei family has come to an end, but the blockade of Red Maple City has not yet been lifted.
Pei Ze learned from Yin Xue that the cleaning operation in Chenxi City was still continuing.
In order to prevent the Pei family from escaping to the Turin plane, all plane passages through the Turin plane have now been blocked, and no passage is allowed inside or outside.
So Pei Ze simply stayed in Red Maple City and devoted himself to training.
More than a month passed in the blink of an eye, and it was mid-August.
With Pei Ze's persistent practice, the Omniscient Breathing Technique finally broke through to the seventh level.
And he successfully broke through and became a fourth-level legendary knight.
"Omniscient, check my current status."
[Spirit 143.48]
[Physique 109.64]
Looking at the data in front of him, Pei Ze showed a satisfied smile on his face.
"Yes, the physique has increased by 10 energy levels!"
The fourth-level legendary realm does not increase the types of elemental power, but after the breakthrough, the power of thunder and fire elements in Pei Ze's body have been greatly strengthened.
The increase is no less than the strengthening of the power of the thunder element when he broke through to the third level legend.
Not to mention the physique, the fourth-level legendary knight can confront the existence of the first-level liquefied wizard. This shows how amazing his physique is.
"My current physique should be able to strengthen the alchemical body for the first time."
Pei Ze felt slightly excited.
The battle with Pei Lingjie made him see the powerful power of burning alchemical marks.
This is undoubtedly the strongest trump card he has so far.
Naturally, the greater the number, the better.
If you want to increase the number of alchemical notches, it is definitely necessary to strengthen the alchemical body.
"It's just that the strengthening materials are a bit more expensive. The total cost is almost 28,000 merit points."
This is much more than the cost of transforming the alchemical body.
Fortunately, the reward for assisting the witch hunting troops in carrying out their mission has been distributed, and Pei Ze can afford it.
I don’t know if Wu Ping played a role in it. The Witch Hunting Army was very generous this time and directly gave him a reward of 30,000 merit points, which was close to two-thirds of what he gained from the last war.
But if you think about it carefully, in the war, a fourth-level priest who was equivalent to a second-level liquefaction wizard had a kill reward of 1,000 merit points, and Pei Lingjie, who was fused with evil objects, was three times more powerful than the fourth-level priest. Four levels, the threat and importance are far beyond, and the kill reward of 30,000 merit points does not seem so exaggerated.
"After strengthening the alchemy body, the remaining merit points and magic stone coins can be used to purchase the materials to engrav the silver body. New alchemy marks can only be engraved after earning enough money." Although
. Having just received a huge amount of merit points, Pei Ze still felt like he was very poor.
In addition to the alchemical engravings, the metal combinations needed for Silver Star evolution, the four-ring spell model books, and the materials needed to make the Silver Frost Wolves bloodline mark all cost money to purchase.
"It seems that I have to go back to my old business."
Pei Ze sighed and decided to refine a batch of resonance potions during this period to earn enough money to buy spell model books and bloodline mark materials.
In the past month or so, the task of calculating the bloodline mark of the Silver Frost Scourge Wolf has been completed. Now we only need the materials to start refining the blood of the Silver Frost Scourge Wolf and try to make the bloodline mark.
According to his estimate, the material cost would be tens of thousands of magic stone coins at least.
"There are also faith crystals that need to be prepared in advance."
Pei Ze estimated that it would take nearly five months for the mental power to reach the 192 energy level required for liquefaction.
This is still if there is enough support from purified soul crystals.
But in this way, he also has enough time to prepare the necessary faith crystals to liquefy.
