The captain was sweating profusely, causing several team members to tense up and quickly adjust their gazes to stare at the man in the gray cloak!

"Captain, do you know him?"

One of the team members spoke nervously.

They are the adventurer team of "Gold Rank". An enemy that can make their captain so nervous must be far beyond their level.

"Brain Anglaus?" The captain's tone was surprised and uncertain.

Wow--

The other people in the team were in an uproar, and some even had a look of fear on their faces.

"Is that Brain?"

A weak voice sounded, as if to make sure.

People who don't know Brain among the entire Kingdom are just like people who don't know "Warrior Captain" Gazef. It can be described as rare.

Especially adventurers like them, such famous people, how could they not know about them even if they have never seen them?

The three words "Brain" now not only represent power, but also danger!

This is thanks to the recently famous and sensational Kingdom's second "Adamantite Rank" adventurer team "Free Will".

Last year.

"Free Will" received a reward from the Baharuth Empire, and was attacked by the famous mercenary group "Death Spreading Sword Mercenary Group". In the end, the entire mercenary group was wiped out, and only Brain escaped alone.

According to rumors, this news is false,

How could the famous Brain join the notorious mercenary group?

Now, as "Free Will" becomes the "Adamantite Rank" adventurer team, the old rumors have been revealed again, and it is found that the news is true!

However.

Brain's fame has not become less, but has become greater.

He was defeated by "Warrior Captain" and "Gazef" but was able to escape from the hands of Adamantite Rank's adventurer team. This all proves the strength of Brain.

"I think you're thinking of some nasty things."

Brain's sharp eyes were filled with coldness. He placed one hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist and tilted his head slightly:

"I don't want to say it a second time, get out of here!"

in the process of speaking.

Brain's footsteps didn't pause at all. His steps were calm and elegant, but also revealed some kind of beast-like terrifying aura.

"Captain!"

"Captain!"

The two adventurer teams looked at their leaders at the same time, waiting for orders to be issued.

The two captains looked at each other and could see the confusion in each other's eyes, but still did not give any instructions to retreat.

If the enemy is as strong as Brain, there is nothing wrong with him even if he retreats and abandons the mission. The worst he can do is make compensation and be punished by downgrading the team!

--But!

"Being able to compete with Battle, a strong man of this level, is a rare opportunity! Right, Captain Mokaria."

"Yes, there is only one person on the other side, and we have two "Gold Rank" teams!"

The two captains of the adventurer team had a brief exchange and quickly issued instructions to take action.

"Magic Arrow!"

"Sleep!"

"Acid Arrow!"

Magic Caster in the team immediately launched a magic attack, while adventurer members like Warrior and Thief rushed forward quickly.

See this scene.

"There have been more and more self-righteous people lately."

Brain grinned and slowly drew out the long knife from his waist.

"--Ah!"

"Ah!!"

"No, no, run away!"

It only takes a moment.

Two teams of adventurers were already lying on the ground, their blood flowing and mingling on the ground.

The entire army was wiped out!

Brain stepped on the blood-soaked ground unscathed, gently swinging the long knife in his hand to let the blood droplets stained on the blade slide off.

"I've given you a chance to escape."

"As an adventurer, you can't even accurately judge the strength of the enemy or ourselves. Even if you don't die here, you will die somewhere else."

Brain ignored the corpse on the ground, muttered to himself lightly, and walked towards the carriage at the front.

The businessman who was originally responsible for transporting the goods, after confirming that something was wrong, was so frightened that he ran away with the horsemen pulling the cart.

Only ten carriages were left standing alone on the road.

Brain doesn't care about the ordinary people who escape. He can easily catch up if he wants to, but he doesn't bother to take action against ordinary people.

Tear!

The curtain covering the carriage's cargo was drawn open.

In a pile of ordinary ores, an arm-long wooden box was pressed underneath.

Push the ore above it away.

Brain lifted the wooden box out with one hand and used the back of the knife to knock off the chain on the wooden box.

There was a "click" sound.

Under the sunlight, bright silver metal light reflects from the box. These are pieces of silver metal of different sizes, which are exactly "Mithril" whose price is comparable to gold!

It is as strong as steel, has excellent magic affinity and is extremely light weight. Adding a little Mithril to any weapon can greatly improve the toughness and value of the weapon.

"This box of metal Mithril is worth at least 3,500 gold coins on the black market, and maybe 4,000 gold coins."

There was a trace of joy on Brain's face, he closed the wooden box and lifted it up with one hand. "With the previous property, it is enough to purchase "Divine Blade"."

I think of the rumors from this time.

Brain felt something in his heart. He raised his arm and pulled the gray hood. He felt that after getting Divine Blade, he had to find a place to hide from the limelight.

"You have to continue training!"

Brain tightened the handle of the knife in his hand and curled his lips in displeasure.

Where did these two guys come from!

Before participating in "Royal Tournament", he had never tasted defeat and was always on the road to victory.

As a result, Gazef first defeated him, and then encountered his first near-death crisis.

The leader of "Free Will" - Tang!

A guy whose appearance is seriously inconsistent with his strength, a guy who is stronger than Gazef!

If the other party hadn't been suddenly attacked by Assassin, Brain felt that he would have died there just like those mercenaries.

"You have to think about countermeasures, otherwise you may not have the same luck as last time when we meet again." Brain picked up the box, thought about it, and turned around to leave.

During this time, he acquired relevant magical knowledge.

We have learned that the Angel summoned by Tang is the powerful high-level Angel of Fourth-Tier, and can actually summon two of them.

Faced with such a powerful enemy, if you cannot break through the blockade of the two Angel, you will have no chance of winning and will have to escape again.

Escape?

No shame!

He longs to fight with the strong Battle, but he is not facing an invincible powerful enemy or a pedantic person who fights to the death. There is only one goal he pursues.

Avenge shame and turn defeat into victory!

Phew~

A wave of Whirlwind formed, sweeping up a wind of sand.

Brain stopped and looked up dozens of meters away. Sand and dust formed out of thin air to block his sight.

There is a faint smell of danger in the air!

"Who else is escorting this caravan?"

Brain took the long knife that was about to be sheathed and held it in his hand again.

The wind and sand dispersed.

A figure wrapped tightly in black robes stood where Feng Sha was just now.

This pretentious way of appearing...Magic Caster?

Brain sneered inwardly, but his eyes became sharp.

The swordsman's intuition told him that the other party was very dangerous and completely different from the adventurer just now. This also showed that the other party was not someone from the escort caravan.

"Do you want to defeat "Free Will", Brain Anglaus."

The hoarse voice of the black-robed figure came. "I can help you."

"Ha~"

Brain raised his eyebrows and his eyes became dark.

Bang!

A moment.

Brain The ground beneath his feet shook, his body rushed forward like a compressed spring, and the wooden box in his hand was thrown forward with great force.

The box flew into the air.

The pieces of Mithril metal of different sizes mounted on the surface spread out in mid-air. Because Mithril is light and has the characteristics of being as hard as steel.

These Mithril pieces of metal were shattered quickly, and they were all thrown at the mysterious Magic Caster, while blocking a certain amount of the opponent's view.

"I still plan to continue the exchange."

The mysterious Magic Caster disguised by Tang Zheng was a little helpless and sang in a low voice:

""Dimensional Move""

Whoosh!

The figure disappeared.

Brain's sharp eyes saw the moment Tang Zheng's figure disappeared. He was stunned for a moment and his eyes slid rapidly.

No?

"Reverse Gravity"

A faint voice sounded from behind.

Brain's forward movement suddenly slowed down unscientifically like slow motion, and the heavy pressure made his body stand stiffly in place.

The effect of binding magic.

Without movement resistance, it is obviously impossible to avoid this effect.

Tang Zheng, who appeared behind Brain, walked towards the other party unhurriedly, and said in a hoarse voice Taunt: "Such a level is a bit unworthy of the name."

"Maybe Gazef should be invited."

"Who are you looking down upon--!"

Brain Veins appeared on both arms, and he suddenly said Roar: "Strengthen Magic Resistance!"

"Ability Boost!"

Brain, who was originally affected by magic, actually broke free from the shackles of magic. The muscles in his neck tightened and he twisted his upper body. Then he swung the knife with both hands:

"Fourfold Slash of Light!"

Four swords suddenly appeared in the air, slashing with murderous intent, making people feel as if they were facing an incoming weapon.

"This is interesting." Tang Zheng raised the corner of his mouth slightly.

As expected of Brain, he has mastered Gazef's signature moves so quickly.

Boom!

The light of magic exploded between the two of them in a matter of seconds.

Brain's arms dropped unnaturally, and the long knife in his hand fell to the ground. Severe pain surged through his body, causing his body to twitch uncontrollably.

So strong!

It's not on the same level at all, it's simply a monster!

"Ahem..."

Brain There was fear in his eyes, his throat itched, and he spurted out a mouthful of blood, and the clothes on his chest were dyed red.

"Who are you... who are you?" Brain's eyes were blurry, and he knew that even if he wanted to escape this time, he wouldn't be able to escape at all.

There is another unbeatable opponent...

My luck is really good, I am able to encounter such powerful enemies one after another.

"[Zurrernorn] Leader."

Tang Zheng said calmly, he came to find Brain this time, naturally he planned to include Brain in [Zurrernorn].

Leader?

Brain Hearing these words, Divine City who was a little confused suddenly became sober.

During this time, even in such remote towns, there were rumors about what happened at Abelion Hills. Such a major event had transcended national borders.

Although some important information was concealed, a strong person like Brain naturally had ways to obtain information. He also learned about the evil secret society [Zurrernorn] for the first time.

"You're not dead!"

Brain took a step back and looked at the black-robed Magic Caster opposite in surprise. Even the fear and pain were weakened by the shocking news.

According to the information he obtained, the leader of [Zurrernorn] had been eliminated by the elite troops of the Holy Kingdom, Slane Theocracy and "Free Will".

Even in this current situation!

Brain's mind is still extremely clear. Is the news false?

No!

The information comes from the Adventurer's Guild. There is no need to lie about such important information, so the other party is not dead at all!

Or is the person in front of me just pretending to be the leader of [Zurrernorn]?

Tang Zheng did not answer this question. He flicked his black cuffs and a bottle of blue potion flew towards Brain.

"Want to become stronger?"

Tang Zheng's hoarse voice contained a playful tone. "Drink the potion."

Pat--

The crystal clear potion bottle fell from the air to the ground and rolled in front of Brain's feet.

"I hope the taste of this potion isn't too bitter."

Brain showed a free and easy look at this moment. His weak body simply stopped supporting him and sat down on the ground. He picked up the potion and poured it all into his mouth.

According to the information he learned, this alliance leader has the ability to create Legendary Undead, and his terrifying strength is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Outlier on top of the Hero Realm?

No matter whether the guy in front of me who claims to be the leader of the alliance is real or fake, he is no match.

The warm liquid slides down the throat and into the stomach.

An indescribable taste.

Smelly, sweet, and a burning sensation!

The hot air began to expand from the stomach, and then flowed rapidly along the blood throughout the body.

Brain's pupils dilated, and he clearly felt a sudden surge of powerful force from his body, and the muscles all over his body bulged slightly, making a tense sound.

A faint red light flickered on Brain's body, making the skin flush, and undetectable heat seeped out from the pores all over his body.

"Strengthening potion?"

Brain The first thought flashed in his mind, and then he realized that this was completely different from the strengthening potion.

This power is endless, and it is not the feeling of a short-term increase in strength like a strengthening potion - what kind of potion is this!

Become... stronger!

"Ninjutsu·Detection"

Tang Zheng activates the detection skill of Ninja and observes that Brain's strength increases after drinking "Dragon Blood Potion".

"28LV, are you stuck at this level again?"

Tang Zheng frowned slightly.

The same goes for Lainas and Imina. To him, it's just a level difference, but to New World, it's like there's a "bottleneck" between them.

"Hero Realm" does not seem to be an easy level to break through.

Tick tock~

Tick tock~

Brain stood up slowly, kneeling on the ground with his legs, and hot tears fell from his eyes.

This man actually cried!

"My previous efforts are nothing—"

Brain raised his head and looked up at Tang Zheng in front of him. His voice was hoarse, as if he was asking or questioning himself.

Slowly.

Brain bent his spine and pressed his forehead heavily on the ground.

"Welcome to join [Zurrernorn]." Tang Zheng said lightly.
