Chapter 1068: Sorcerer Melgor

Translator: Legge

Ren Xiaosu was able to discover the uninvited guest because he had already sent “Old Xu” out. Moreover, he realized the gray-robed person’s counter reconnaissance measures were actually not that great. He did not discover Old Xu’s presence even after being followed all the way here.

Of course, Ren Xiaosu would not underestimate him either. The moment he attacked, Ren Xiaosu would go all out against him.

The enemy was only 500 meters away from the outpost. When the sheep saw Zhang Jinglin retreating and leaving Ren Xiaosu behind to cover him, he roughly realized the sorcerer must have arrived.

He was no longer afraid. Instead, he started sizing up the young man in front of him with great interest.

The young man was not old and should only be around 18 to 19 years of age. Although his physique was not ridiculously muscular, he still possessed a great deal of strength.

When Ren Xiaosu grabbed him, he really did not have the strength to resist. The other party’s hands and arms were as strong as steel.

However, he still wouldn’t be a match for the sorcerer if all he had was strength.

Fortress 178 and the sorcerer nation still did not understand each other at the moment. If the sorcerers and their apprentices knew of Ren Xiaosu’s existence, they could probably not remain as calm.

But the sheep apprentice was more concerned about something else right now. Like, when would the medicine’s effect subside?

The human and the sheep stood at the outpost’s entrance like everything was fine. Ren Xiaosu could already see the gray figure approaching quickly from the top of the mountain.

Based on Old Xu’s observation, the other party did not rely on his physical strength to move at that speed. Instead, he depended on some kind of strange power to reduce his weight so he could levitate slightly above the ground and move forward.

Ren Xiaosu had to admit it was just as the Great Hoodwinker had told him. The methods the sorcerers employed were indeed very strange and varied.

He stood at the entrance of the outpost and quietly sized up the other party. Meanwhile, the other party was also quietly sizing him up from under his gray hood.

When the sorcerer got closer, Ren Xiaosu suddenly felt his body get heavier and heavier. It was as though the gravity around him had become stronger.

He looked calmly at the other party and saw the sorcerer was holding a white stone in his hand. From the gap between his thumb and index finger, Ren Xiaosu could make out… a glowing violet eye.

Wait, why did this violet eye look so familiar?

He checked out the third weapon in his mind palace. The violet eye on the black stone was clearly the same as the one in the other party’s hands!

The gravitational force exerted on him by the sorcerer at this moment should be some kind of strange legacy power, and if the other party wanted to use this power, he had to rely on the stone in his hand!

Otherwise, the other party would not be holding a rock for no reason.

In just an instant, Ren Xiaosu figured out a lot of things. It was no wonder his third weapon was a rock. He had been wondering how a rock could be considered a weapon. He had wondered if it was to be used as a concealed weapon to attack others.

Only now did he realize the stone was a sorcerer’s weapon.

Thus, other related clues also began to make sense. The Proficiency Stones in the palace’s vending machine must also be related to the magi!

Thinking of this, Ren Xiaosu started to become excited. However, he could not think too deeply about this right now. As the pressure on him increased, Ren Xiaosu’s expression turned grim.

However, Ren Xiaosu found it a little strange. The other party was only about ten meters away from him, and at this distance, Ren Xiaosu could supposedly kill him very easily.

Moreover, Old Xu had already climbed up the slope behind the other party and was lying in ambush there. With Old Xu’s speed, it would probably not even take a second for it to stab the black saber into the back of this sorcerer.

Seeing that the other party was wide open, he clearly appeared to Ren Xiaosu to be a naïve fool. Wasn’t he supposed to be a legendary sorcerer with impressive combat strength? Why was he so stupid then?

Wait, it had already been 17 years since the war between Fortress 178 and the nation of sorcerers. 17 years ago, there were no powerful individuals like superhumans. Although there were the Riders, they had never participated in the Northwest’s wars.

Therefore, could it be that the other party’s information was a little outdated and that he was unaware of the changes that had occurred in the Central Plains?

Thinking of this, Ren Xiaosu suddenly pretended to struggle with all his might. However, he did not use too much strength as he could sense the other party’s power. He was worried he would break free for real if he used a little more strength.

After all, it would be easier to make the enemy reveal the truth when victory looked to be within their grasp.

The sorcerer looked at Ren Xiaosu and said with a laugh, “Stop trying to struggle. Not even the most powerful gladiator in the kingdom can break free from this Earth Bind spell.”

Ren Xiaosu said coldly, “You’re a sorcerer?”

The sorcerer said with a smile, “You can address me as Lord Melgor.”

With that, the violet eye on the stone in the sorcerer’s hand suddenly lit up. Ren Xiaosu was then surprised to see the sheep turn into a human.

The sorcerer was stunned when he saw his newly accepted apprentice. Then he frowned and said, “Filthy.”

The apprentice looked down at his lower body and hastily said, “Lord Melgor, this kid drugged me!”

“I see.” Melgor nodded. “Where are the others at this outpost?”

“I don’t know how this kid found out that you were coming, but he had the sentries take his master away while he stayed behind to cover them,” the apprentice said.

When Ren Xiaosu heard this, a strange expression appeared on his face. However, he struggled harder and put on an angry look to disguise his true thoughts.

Ren Xiaosu wondered if this sorcerer and his servant had misunderstood something. Wait a minute, could it be that the other party had misunderstood when he saw him carrying Zhang Jinglin earlier?

“With me around, don’t even think about hurting Mr. Zhang!” Ren Xiaosu roared.

Melgor said with a laugh, “You’re very loyal, but didn’t your master still leave without you? He chose to abandon you.”

Ren Xiaosu said ferociously, “What do you know? Protecting him is my bound duty!”

Ren Xiaosu seemingly struggled too hard and caused the formless Earth Bind spell to suddenly let out a crackling sound. When Ren Xiaosu realized this was happening, he quickly suppressed his strength before mentally thinking to himself that the Earth Bind spell the sorcerer had boasted about did not seem that great after all.

When Melgor saw this, his expression froze. He immediately gripped the stone and increased the intensity of the spell. Then he waited until Ren Xiaosu could no longer struggle before heaving a sigh of relief.

Melgor did not get angry. Instead, he became very interested in Ren Xiaosu. “You nearly broke free from the Earth Bind spell. You’re even stronger than the strongest gladiators in the kingdom!”

Ren Xiaosu did not struggle anymore. Instead, he said with a grim expression, “You and your fancy tricks. I dare you to release your annoying shackles and duel me!”

“How simple-minded.” Melgor chuckled. “Why don’t we make a deal?”

“What deal?”

“If you become my servant, I won’t go after your ex-master. Consider that my charity to you so you keep your promise to him. What do you say?” Melgor asked. “Of course, you can also not agree, but I believe your master has not gone far away yet.. I’ll only need 30 minutes to carve his heart out and bring it to you.”
