97 Gaugass Battlemage (1/2)

T/N: Fixed Gaugass, it's a group of mages and not one person.

'Plate armor, lance… Gaugass Battlemage!' Lin Yun was startled and subconsciously raised the Spiritual Magic Staff with Flame Burst's flames flickering at its tip.

But he immediately realized that something was off.

Lin Yun noticed that this the armored silhouette holding the lance was actually motionless. It really was a legendary Gaugass Battlemage, and he wasn't moving at all in front of Lin Yun's Flame Burst. What did that mean?

'Could it be… Another skeleton?'

Lin Yun interrupted the cast of his Flame Burst while feeling a bit doubtful, but he didn't dare to be careless. He held the Sage Chapter in his hand tightly. If anything went amiss, the Fire Arrows within would be activated. Those were genuine Ultimate Spells, and their might would far surpass that of his Flame Burst.

This wasn't Lin Yun being overly careful.

These Gaugass Battlemages could be considered quite unconventional among the entire magic civilization. They never learnt any magic knowledge or did any magic research. They didn't even have their own written language, a group of true barbarians. Their societal system was still at the tribal stage.

But it was this group of barbarians that was blessed with innate magic skill. Almost every Gaugass Battlemage was born with Mage level mana accumulation. Once they reached adulthood, that mana accumulation would reach Great Mage level. It had to be mentioned that this would occur without meditation or training, it was all innate mana. This was enough to make ordinary mages envious.

The most frightening part was that Gaugass Battlemages were born with extremely tyrannical physical strength. They could use all kinds of weapons and all heavy armors. When they joined a battlefield, it was as if armored beasts had joined the fray, and in addition, those armored beasts could fire all kinds of spells!

Facing such an abnormal existence, Lin Yun felt that no matter how careful he was, it couldn't be considered excessive.

Lin Yun remained alert as he cast Detect Magic.

'No mana fluctuations, no signs of life…'

Lin Yun let out a sigh of relief. Whether that silhouette was a Gaugass Battlemage or not, there was no danger.

Lin Yun finally relaxed the hand holding the Sage Chapter and moved past.

The Bone Devil's footsteps were already drawing closer.

That sinister roar echoed once again in Lin Yun's ears. But the more terrifying thing was that after expanding out, the passage didn't continue any farther.

The path had come to an end.

Lin Yun's only course of action now was waiting.

Waiting for the Bone Devil to give up on tracking him, or for it to find him.
