Chapter 1137
1137 I’m Mage Merlin!
The massive Cloud Leopard was about five meters long, and it emitted a strong oppressive aura all over.
Advanced magical beasts were terrifying magical beasts that could make even Advanced Warriors despair.
Among Lady Pera’s guards, only the leader was an Advanced Warrior. As for the other guards, they were only Intermediate Warriorarriors. Hence, when they saw the Cloud Leopard approaching step by step, everyone tensed.
Even the previously stubborn Lady Pera’s face was pale at this moment. She was bent on becoming a mage, so she paid no attention to warriors at all. She was not even an Elementary Warrior. If the Cloud Leopard got to her, she would be dead for certain.
The Cloud Leopard’s footsteps were very “elegant”. With every step, its gaze was filled with “aggression”, as if the few people in front of it were already its meal.
“Escort the Lady out of here!”
The leader roared and gripped his sword with both hands. Then, he suddenly leaped forward and slashed at the Cloud Leopard. He wanted to hold off the Cloud Leopard. Even at the cost of his life, he wanted to protect Lady Pera out of here.
However, the Cloud Leopard seemed to have some intelligence. A trace of “contempt” appeared on its face.
Thud.
The Cloud Leopard casually struck down, and its sharp claws met the great sword head-on.
Immediately, a terrifying force almost made the leader lose his grip on the great sword. His entire body was sent flying by the powerful force.
As the legends said, advanced magical beasts could practically crush Advanced Warriors.
Swoosh.
The Cloud Leopard darted directly behind Lady Pera, blocking her retreat. For a moment, Lady Pera and the many guards’ faces were pale.
They understood that unless a miracle happened, they were dead for certain today.
“Oh, so this is the power of this world?”
In the distant sky, Lin Feng had already arrived.
He also saw “Lady Pera” and the others, as well as the Cloud Leopard.
Although he could not understand the language, Lin Feng was extraordinary. Language barrier was the easiest thing to resolve. With his immense mental power, he could naturally analyze the language these people spoke in. In the blink of an eye, he could understand it.
“These people are warriors. Lady Pera is here to find mages? Looks like mages should have quite a high status in this world.”
Lin Feng pondered for a moment. He had once read some novels on his home planet, including legends about mages. Although he did not know if the fictional mages on his home planet were the same kind as the mages in this world, from what these people said, mages had a very high status in this world. That was enough.
“Perhaps the identity of a mage can allow me to understand this world faster.”
Lin Feng had an idea. Seeing the appearances of Lady Pera and the others, his body slowly began to change. Gradually, Lin Feng became a thin, golden-haired, blue-eyed young man in a black robe.
Moreover, this change was a deep-level change in the cells, and was almost no different from reality. With the power of Lin Feng’s internal universe, even reconstructing a body was nothing, let alone a mere change in appearance.
“It’s about time. Should I go on stage next?”
A smile appeared on Lin Feng’s lips. Then, a violent wind howled around him. He stepped on the gust directly and descended from the sky.
Boom.
Just as Lady Pera and the others were trembling in fear and despair, a gust suddenly blew towards them from the distant sky.
“That’s…”
Many people saw a faint figure in the gust. Everyone’s eyes were filled with incomparable shock. Even the Cloud Leopard sensed danger and growled.
A violent wind howled. Lin Feng appeared in front of everyone in a rather stunning manner. With a wave of his hand, the gust dissipated, and he landed on the ground, right in front of the Cloud Leopard.
“Leave at once,” Lin Feng berated.
As if it could understand Lin Feng’s words, the Cloud Leopard retreated step by step. Then, it growled and suddenly turned around. It fled backward in a frenzy, as if it was running for its life. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the dense forest.
Everyone’s mouths fell open, and they did not recover for a long time.
Only Lady Pera’s eyes lit up. She seemed to have thought of something, and her entire body trembled with excitement.
He could control powerful gusts, descended from the sky, and repelled an advanced magical beast, the Cloud Leopard, with a single shout. This was far beyond the capability of even some powerful warriors.
Perhaps, only those mysterious and noble mages in the legends could do it.
“You… You’re a great mage?”
Lady Pera’s voice was trembling, and her eyes were filled with anticipation.
Lin Feng smiled, then nodded and said, “I’m Mage Merlin. The Misty Wood is very dangerous. You should leave as soon as possible.”
“Merlin” was naturally Lin Feng’s alias. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. He had already changed his appearance, so he naturally had to change his name as well.
“It’s really… It’s really a great mage!”
“Heavens, so there’s really a mage in the Misty Forest.”
“Mage Merlin is the mage in the Misty Forest in the legends, right?”
“He looks really young, but mages are mysterious and noble. They know miraculous spells, and can even live for hundreds or thousands of years. Looking youthful is not an issue. Perhaps this Mage Merlin is already hundreds of years old.”
The group was incomparably surprised. That was a mage. Even the leader of the guards, who was an Advanced Warrior, was very excited at this moment.
Lady Pera was even more incoherent. She immediately bowed respectfully and said, “Thank you for saving me, Mage Merlin. My name is Pera, and I’m the daughter of Earl Val outside the Misty Forest. I have nothing to repay you with for saving my life. Please come to my castle as a guest, and rest for a while.”
Lady Pera was not stupid. Even though she had seen a mage she dreamed of becoming, she did not immediately make a request to become his disciple. Instead, she invited Lin Feng to come to the castle as a guest.
Once Lin Feng agreed to it, wouldn’t she be able to interact more with “Mage Merlin”? It would also be easier to ask to become his disciple.
“Great Mage, please allow Pera to thank you properly!”
Lady Pera’s attitude was very sincere. Lin Feng displayed some “reluctance”, but in the end, he nodded and said, “All right. In any case, I’m preparing to leave the Misty Forest. I’ll visit your castle.”
“That’s wonderful. I believe Father will also be very happy to know that a mage has arrived in person.”
Lady Pera was very happy. Her face was flushed, and she could not conceal the excitement in her heart. She had always yearned to meet mages, and now one had actually agreed to go to her castle.
She believed that at the castle, if she asked Mage Merlin to teach her spells with utmost sincerity, Mage Merlin would definitely find it difficult to refuse. Perhaps in the future, she would be able to become a noble mage!
Seeing that the young girl, Lady Pera, seemed to have fallen into a “wonderful fantasy”, a smile appeared on Lin Feng’s lips. He wondered how disappointed Lady Pera would be if she knew that he was just a “fake mage”.
Deceiving an innocent and beautiful girl made even Lin Feng, a dignified Hallowed Lord, feel a little apologetic. However, after understanding the situation in this world, at most, he would not mind giving Lady Pera an opportunity.
Hence, Lin Feng followed Lady Pera. He got into a carriage, and slowly headed for the Val Castle.
