Chapter 81 Ten Days!

  Big Mac

  Battle cries kept ringing outside the city walls, occasionally accompanied by a burst of mournful wails.

  Aegwynn raised her head and looked at Chen Le carefully before saying: "You are an alchemist, aren't you?"

  Chen Le nodded.

  Aegwynn lowered her head again to focus on the work in her hands and said, "What rank?"

  Chen Le gazed out at the soldiers falling one after another outside and said: "Broken Mirror!"

  "Bang!" The magic circle shattered directly due to Egwen's uneven infusion of magical power, causing it to bear too much pressure.

  Aiguo stood up and then looked at Chen Le seriously, excitedly saying: "Welcome."

  Chen Le only then began to carefully examine Aegwynn: disheveled hair and beard, the magic robe was wrinkled all over, his face was covered with dust, and his eyes were filled with bloodshot.

  Egbert's eager eyes suddenly disappeared, and he let out a long sigh, saying: "Master Arthur, speak up, what do you want from me? I know you can't possibly be offering us help for no reason."

  Chen Le Xian was taken aback for a moment, then asked: "How did you know I'm Arthur's?"

  Aegwynn smiled faintly: "Extremely young, black pupils and white hair. Although your hair is covered with some earth elements, I can still sense the color of the hair behind the elements."

  Chen Le smiled and said to Aegwynn: "Alright, I won't keep you in suspense either. I want Frost Essence!"

  Aegwynn's mouth corners slightly curved upwards, he shook his head and said: "Another one who wants Frostbite. At least three groups of people wanted this thing before you."

  "So you're in on it too." Chen Le slammed his hands onto the table in front of Aiguo, staring him down intensely.

  Aiguo stood up and said to a window behind him: "That's right, I do."

  Chen Le walked up to Aigewan and said: "What do I need to pay!"

  "Aegwyn pointed to the outside where the demonic beasts were surging like a tide, and said: 'As long as you can listen to my orders for ten days! I'll give you the Frost Spirit! I believe those people will be very happy to give it up if they know it's what you want.'"

  Chen Le looked at Aegwynn and asked in puzzlement: "Why ten days?"

  Aegwynn sighed and said, "The kingdom says that the army has regrouped and will arrive in at most ten days. Once the army arrives, we can trap those demonic beasts here."

  Chen Le walked out of the city wall and said in a pretending tone: "So it's decided then. The demons outside have started attacking the city walls!"

  "Roar!"

  The roar shook the sky, and Chen Le felt a slight pain in his eardrums.

  Aegwynn rushed out and pulled Chen Le, saying: "This is not your battlefield! Master Arthur, come with me, we are really short of alchemists here." Then Aegwynn whispered the incantation, Chen Le first felt a gust of wind blowing over his body, and at the same time he felt that his body seemed to have become lighter.

  Aegwynn leaped off the city wall, Chen Le took a look at the hundred-meter distance, then gritted his teeth and jumped down. The wind brushed against his face, Chen Le quickly landed, and when he landed, there was not even a slight shock, nor did any dust rise. At this moment, Chen Le couldn't help but admire the people who created magic.

  "Master Arthur! Over here!" Egwene's voice came from the east, Chen Le raised his head to look and saw Egwene waving at him. Chen Le hurriedly ran over, but the demons outside seemed unwilling to let Chen Le pass so easily and happily, as a large number of wooden spears suddenly flew out from behind the city wall. Each spear was two meters long and as thick as a fist.

  Chen Le helplessly looked up at the wooden spear in the sky, then his body slightly leaned forward, and his left foot exerted force backward. Chen Le instantly shot out like an arrow off a bowstring.

  The first step was ten meters away, and in front of Chen Le, there were two wooden spears blocking his path. Chen Le directly placed both hands forward, then grasped one spear with each hand.

  The second step was twenty meters, and it was a flame flying stone that flew over from the northeast. Chen Le raised his right hand's wooden spear to lean against his body. When the flame flying stone was about to approach Chen Le, Chen Le directly consumed five layers of strength to strike back, and the flame flying stone was hit out like a baseball. And Chen Le's right-hand wooden spear only had the part in his palm left.

  Third stage, thirty meters! This is his limit, and also the last challenge of this section, a rain of wooden spears. Some of the spears even have a corpse attached to them. Chen Le shouted loudly, then raised both hands and started spinning the spears in circles. Chen Le formed a tornado on the spot, and all the spears were sucked in by the tornado's suction force. As the tornado spun, when Chen Le had turned for about ten seconds, he stopped facing northeast with his body leaning forward, and the spears flew out in that direction.

  "Huff...huff...huff...huff." Due to the massive physical exertion, Chen Le felt a hint of fatigue. However, this was clearly not the time to slack off, and with a loud roar, Chen Le sprinted towards Aegwynn's location.

  It's all right now, nothing can stop Chen Le from advancing anymore.

  When Chen Le ran to Egwin's side, he was already exhausted to death, lying on the ground without any image, and panting with his tongue out.

  Aegwynn smiled and said: "I didn't think Master Arthas was such a high-ranking warrior! It seems I won't need to send many people to protect you."

  Chen Le glanced at Aegwynn, then said discontentedly: "You'd better send more people to me, or I might get killed by those guys outside. Who knows if there are any dark assassination creatures among the monsters outside."

  Aegwynn stroked his chin, then slightly raised his head and said: "En, that's right. I found many unrecorded magical beasts in the outer beast group. Did you see those wooden spears and flaming stones? Those things were thrown out by a kind of magical beast similar to the Frenzied Beast. Although there aren't many of those magical beasts, they are indeed much more numerous than the Frenzied Beasts."

  Chen Le's head was already big, and the rich variety of demons meant that all sorts of strange battles might occur, which undoubtedly made people feel a little overwhelmed.

  Chen Le's physical strength recovered quickly, he stood up with effort, and then said to Aigewan: "Lead the way."

  Aiqiwen smiled and took Chen Le into the stone building behind him, which was like a block of tofu.

  The interior of the building was very dim, with an area of about 300 square meters, but there were only a few lamps, and the line of sight could barely see within three meters. In this dimly lit interior, Chen Le could see piles of flames, and he could also smell a hint of medicinal fragrance.

  This should be the alchemy lab of McPhee's Castle.

  Aegwyn clapped his hands, and the air around him suddenly began to flow. Those who were refining medicine also hastily extinguished the furnace fire and ran to Aegwyn's side.

  "Egbert smiled and pointed at Chen Le saying: "Kids! This is Master Arthur! He will be in charge of organizing your work for this period!"

  Because it was too dark, Chen Le couldn't see what the alchemists looked like, but from the flow of the wind, he could roughly guess that there were six people, and they were all very young, probably around 15 or 16 years old.

  Chen Le looked puzzled and asked Egwene: "Egwene, what's going on with these kids?"

  Aiguo's expression was taken aback, then smiled and said: "You say they are children? Aren't you also a child?"

  Chen Le was taken aback for a moment, then let out a long sigh and said: "Yes, I'm also a kid, but I've been through too much, my heart has grown old."

  Egbert patted Chen Le's shoulder and said, "Don't be sad, go chat with these little guys, you really don't have much free time." Then Egbert left the stone hut.

  Chen Le had the opportunity to carefully observe those young alchemists after Aegwynn left.

  Six people, four men and two women, five thin and one fat.

  Chen Le hugged his hands and said to them: "Where are you from?"

  One of the taller boys said, "Master Arthur, nice to meet you. We are apprentices from the Alchemist Guild and were originally going to take our practical exam in the Forest of No Return, but with this happening, we felt we couldn't just stand by and do nothing, so we stayed behind to help the people here resist the demonic beasts!"

  Chen Le's face turned dark, and he said angrily: "Absurd! Do you know that this is playing with life? Didn't your instructor teach you to cherish your own life?"

  Everyone was speechless, or rather they should be.

  Chen Le sighed and said helplessly, "Forget it, since we're here, let's just try our best to contribute. Ten days, as long as you guys can hold on for ten days, I'll personally go visit your instructor!"
