The Genius Mage - Chapter 268
Chapter 268: Entering the Isolated Island
Extracting the seeds of the Snow Lotus was not a simple matter. Now that she was about to enter the devil training, Audrey could only put the matter aside for now and make her plans when she returned.
A few days later, the training would officially begin.
What Audrey did not expect was that Lance would appear before the training began.
The Elder’s deep eyes swept across the few of them as he said meaningfully, “My fellow students, the devil training that all of you will take part in is about to begin. Your mission this time is to survive.”
The Elder’s deep eyes swept across the few of them as he said, “I will teleport all of you to an isolated island. All of you will spend the next half a month there.”
Isolated island? Survive?
The hearts of the few of them trembled slightly as they felt a little flustered.
Audrey was the only one with a calm expression. There were no ripples in her azure eyes. She only stared at the Elder. Seeing that he hadn’t finished speaking, Audrey simply asked, “Elder, do you have anything else to say?”
“Yes.” The Elder looked at Audrey with appreciation. He said earnestly, “On this trip to the island, you still have an important mission. That is to collect the energy balls on the island and bring them back.”
Energy balls?
“Why do you need to collect energy balls?” Klein asked, puzzled.
“You’ll know when you come back,” Lance said calmly from the side.
The few people who wanted to continue questioning swallowed their words when they heard Lance’s words. Audrey knew that Lance’s actions meant that the energy balls had a different function.
“The training this time is dangerous and difficult. I hope that you can come back safely,” Lance said as his deep eyes seemed to fall on Audrey.
Audrey did not mind, but her thoughts became heavier. It seemed like this was not just a simple training.
“I’ll send you over now,” the Elder said as he injected his energy into the crystal ball. A burst of blue light was emitted, which was especially eye-piercing. The few of them immediately closed their eyes.
A few bird calls could be heard from their surroundings.
Audrey could clearly feel the loneliness of her surroundings. After a few seconds, she slowly opened her eyes and surveyed her surroundings with her azure-blue eyes.
The place where she was teleported happened to be at the edge of the island. Layers of waves were hitting her, bringing with them a hint of coolness. However, this sea was especially pale.
Audrey adjusted the aura in her body. Just as she was about to leave to take a look elsewhere, she suddenly felt a dangerous aura. Before she could determine where the aura came from, she heard an angry roar. “Roar!”
Audrey frowned as she stared nervously at the lion not far away.
Judging from its size, it was probably the Lion King. Audrey already had a plan in mind.
She was not a person who liked to kill. If she could tame the Lion King, she would spare its life. If it did not obey her, she could only be ruthless.
While she was deep in thought, the Lion King had already pounced on Audrey. It opened its bloody mouth as if it wanted to swallow her whole.
Audrey stood where she was calmly with a determined look in her eyes.
The moment the lion king pounced on her, she activated the Dou Qi in her body and built a wall of Dou Qi in front of her.
The Lion King slammed into the wall and let out a roar.
The corners of Audrey’s mouth curled up into a smile. After the Lion King slammed into the wall a few times, the wall of Dou Qi was removed, and she boldly exposed herself in front of the Lion King.
“If you are obedient, I will spare your life,” Audrey said in a low voice.
Audrey knew that animals like this could usually understand human language, and this Lion King was no exception.
The Lion King’s eyes became even sharper. It glared at Audrey angrily and roared at her. With this roar, the birds on the surrounding trees flew away instantly.
“It seems that you don’t intend to compromise.” Audrey snorted coldly. She had thought too much. With the pride of the Lion King, how could he lower his head so easily.
The Lion King roared again as if it was responding to Audrey.
In the next second, Audrey had already taken out her longsword. Under the sunlight, the sword emitted a faint cold light. Audrey’s eyes turned sharp as she stabbed the longsword forward.
The Lion King dodged quickly. However, Audrey turned around and a longsword struck Lion King.
“Great Goddess of ice and snow, please freeze everything.” Audrey chanted softly.
In an instant, everything around them changed. Snowflakes fell from the sky, and the leaves on the trees were sealed by the frost, turning silver-white. They looked exceptionally sharp.
The cold air also slowed down the Lion King’s movements.
“Frost fall!” Audrey shouted loudly. With a wave of her longsword, the leaves on the trees fell one after another. If they hit Lion King’s body, they would leave a wound.
The Lion King had nowhere to hide. It could only endure and let out a miserable cry.
Audrey took advantage of the victory to pursue the attack. She rose into the air and stabbed her sword at the Lion King. She shouted, “Wind break slash!”
This time, she used her battle spirit. A powerful battle spirit wrapped the long sword. The moment she stabbed the Lion King’s body, her battle spirit also penetrated its body. The Lion King, who was still baring its fangs and brandishing its claws, fell to the ground.
“Don’t blame me for this.” Audrey curled the corners of her lips as a crafty look flashed across her eyes.
The current Lion King was already seriously injured and didn’t have the ability to retaliate. Audrey did not plan to kill it completely. She would just let it be. Whether it lived or died depended on its own good fortune.
