The Immortal God of War

Chapter 476: The Emergence of Talent

As the three continued to move towards the jungle, the sky gradually darkened. Because they had only eaten breakfast and had not eaten anything until now, although their stomachs did not feel hungry, habit told them that it was time for dinner.

"Let's go ahead and see if there's a river. We might have to camp like the adventure team tonight."

Liu Chi's voice sounded behind her. Maggie turned around and asked seriously,

"Do we need to go all the way to the Osprey Empire?"

"Before I think the time is right, after all, if you go to the Osprey Empire now, you are too weak to get a letter of recommendation. I can only say that getting a letter of recommendation from Li Luo's Imperial Academy is largely a matter of luck."

After listening to Liu Chi, Maggie nodded and quickly reviewed the events of the Imperial College in her mind. Just as Liu Chi said, she relied mostly on luck.

"I understand, Lord Liu Chi, I will work hard!"

Liu Chi in the armor closed his eyes and rested. After hearing Maggie's answer, he just smiled lightly and said nothing, letting the armor follow Maggie's footsteps.

Maggie kept walking in the direction Liu Chi said. As a magician, Maggie was not as weak as other magicians. On the contrary, before entering school, he had been exercising and aspired to be a swordsman.

After roughly knowing that this was a test of Maggie by Liu Chi, Polly did not affect Maggie, but walked on his right side, always keeping a safe distance that allowed Maggie to cast magic with peace of mind.

After it became completely dark, Maggie used magic to create two fireballs, which she hung in front of herself and behind Liu Chi respectively. They were used for lighting and to protect against wild beasts. After all, ordinary wild beasts had a natural fear of fire.

As the three of them were walking, Polly suddenly stopped and said to Maggie alertly,

"Master! There's a monster!"

As a subhuman, Polly's sense of danger is obviously higher than Maggie's, and she speaks out the moment she senses danger.

"where?"

As Maggie spoke, the magic wand in her right hand immediately began to cast a spell, and three protective shields wrapped around the three people respectively.

Just as Maggie finished her words, a giant anaconda rushed over from the jungle and attacked Polly.

Relying on instinct, Polly's body bent at a strange angle and just barely brushed past the giant anaconda.

Maggie, who had never seen such a scene before, only felt that at this moment, her whole body was standing on end. Her brain became extremely clear, and her body was stiff in place. She didn't know what to do for a moment.

While Maggie was dazed, she was tackled by Polly and barely avoided the giant anaconda's attack.

"Master! What are you doing?"

Polly's scream brought Maggie back to reality. He stood up and immediately cast a spell. As a fire shield was formed in front of him, the giant anaconda screamed and rushed towards the fire shield. The collision between the two made Maggie, the caster, fly backwards.

Maggie immediately got up. The excess adrenaline made his brain work rapidly. In just a moment, he remembered the magic that the teacher had casually mentioned in class.

Almost instinctively, the magic energy emanating from his palm "ran onto the magic wand" by itself, and then a magic circle appeared on the top of the magic wand. Maggie immediately raised her hand and aimed it at the giant anaconda that was about to attack.

A column of fire shot out from the magic circle, and when the attacking giant anaconda was in the air, its head was burned into charcoal by the sudden burst of high temperature.

Seeing the giant anaconda being defeated by her attack, Maggie opened her eyes wide and looked at the giant anaconda whose body spread into the darkness on the ground. It took her a long time to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Polly, are there any more monsters around?"

Polly closed her eyes, and the pair of cat ears on her head quickly changed direction, almost turning 360 degrees, before she opened her eyes and answered,

"It seems there is no danger for the time being."

Maggie looked at Liu Chi who was fully armed. He was wondering why the giant anaconda did not attack Liu Chi. What's more, Liu Chi remained standing in the same place without moving from beginning to end.

What Maggie didn't know was that because of the armor, Liu Chi's visual system in the giant anaconda was like a lifeless inorganic object.

"Lord Liuchi, how do we deal with this giant snake?"

Liu Chi opened his eyes and looked at the information about the giant anaconda in the armor. The diameter of its body at the thickest part was nearly fifty centimeters, and its body length was as high as twenty-two meters.

"Look for its crystal core, its flesh..."

Liu Chi hesitated for a while, and finally spoke,

"Its meat will be our dinner."

After Liu Chi finished speaking, Maggie and Polly walked forward along the body of the giant anaconda under the light of the fireball to confirm the length of the giant anaconda.

Soon, the two came back, and Maggie smiled and said,

"Lord Liuchi, I took a look and apart from the burnt head, there are still about 20 meters of meat left. We can't finish it."

Liu Chi's laughter came from the armor.

"Okay, after you take the meat, I'll put it away and eat it later. I don't know how long such a giant anaconda will grow. I'm afraid it will eat an entire adventure team in one meal."

After Liu Chi finished speaking, he took out the mithril dagger that Maggie had taken from the shop from his space ring and handed it to Maggie.

Maggie stayed where she was, starting from the burnt head and Polly's hidden nails stretched out from her fingertips. They looked like cat claws, but Polly's "cat claws" were much sharper, comparable to ordinary mid-level weapons.

With the cooperation of the two, a piece of skinned meat was cut off from the giant anaconda. Due to the body structure of the giant anaconda, this piece of meat was still spasming and "struggling" on Polly's fingertips.

Liu Chi leaned down and put his hand on the remaining giant anaconda. In just a moment, the giant anaconda on the ground disappeared completely, leaving only a charred head, and Maggie also dug out a crystal core shaped like a cherry from the head.

"It's not far ahead. We should be at the river. We'll set up camp there."

As Liu Chi said this, he gave the way to Maggie again. Liu Chi, who was walking behind Maggie, looked at his back, in a daze and fell into deep thought.

That was a level 4 magic burning? Why can a junior magician like him cast a level 4 magic instantly? The power of level 6 magic is equivalent to a forbidden spell, or level 6 magic itself is a forbidden spell, so a junior magician cannot cast a level 4 magic instantly.

Liu Chi followed Maggie with doubts, watching him walk effortlessly. He didn't look like he was weak after consuming magic energy just now. Liu Chi became puzzled. At this time, he finally agreed with the test results of the magic circle in the magic tower.

No matter what, I have to figure it out.

Liu Chi thought about it and closed his eyes again. As Maggie's half-mentor, this was the first time he saw unusual magical talent in an outsider.

After reaching the water's edge, Maggie greeted Liu Chi, left him a ball of fire, and then took Polly to pick up dry firewood half buried in the soil nearby. This time, he wanted to take the initiative to cook for Liu Chi, who was both his teacher and friend.

Liu Chi was not idle either. He packed the giant anaconda as a whole and threw it to the fortress in the sky. Under Nanako's arrangement, the giant anaconda's body was divided into pieces of 30 cm in length and 15 cm in width. Its skin was also peeled off as a whole. On the way back for Maggie and Polly, Liu Chi had already put the divided giant anaconda meat into the space ring.

After the two returned, Maggie used magic to light the branches and began to clean the debris in the giant anaconda's belly by the nearby stream.

Soon, the fire was filled with giant anaconda meat skewered on branches.

Liu Chi took out two tents from his space ring and placed them on the left and right sides of the fire.

"You two will sleep in that room later. I'll sleep over here. When it gets light, we'll set off for the Osprey Empire."

Maggie laughed and said,

"Thank you so much, Your Excellency Liu Chi. I originally thought that I would use leaves from large trees to set up the tent tonight. By the way, can you give me my package, Your Excellency Liu Chi?"

The moment Liu Chi reached out to Maggie, Maggie's package appeared in his hand. After he took it, his face was full of mysterious smiles. While searching for the package, he spoke,

"I brought some condiments specially, which you have definitely never tasted."

"Why, Master?"

Polly asked curiously,

"Because this is specially made by my mother."

Maggie's tone sounded somewhat proud. In fact, he knew that his mother cooked delicious food, but he had never praised her before.
