Karl had asked Elena because he was curious and she was the only one around.

"She's here. She's choosing weapons on the second floor of the tower. I don't think there's any point in staying there, so I came to the Devil's Den first," Elena replied.

Then, she looked at Karl and asked, "Aren't you going to use a weapon?"

Before Karl came to this world, he thought mages were like those he saw in games and movies..

Most of them wore long robes and held magic staffs.

When they attacked, they would use hand gestures to cast spells.

That was the impression he had of mages in his previous life.

However, after coming to this world, he then realized that the mages in this world were different from what he thought mages were like in his previous life.

Not all mages wore robes.

Not all mages held staffs.

Mages could also use weapons.

There were many types of weapons a mage could use.

For example, swords, swords, bows, spears, axes, sickles, etc.

And so on and so forth.

There were too many types to list.

There were only weapons that humans could not create. There were no weapons that mages could not use.

A good weapon was equivalent to a huge increase in ability.

On the second floor of the tower,

there was a place that sold weapons.

One had to pay for them with gold coins.

"I don't think I need a weapon now, so I didn't buy any."

Karl said after thinking for a while. He could now compress magic into a speck.

However, he did not succeed 100% of the time.

Occasionally, the compression would fail.

What he needed to do today was to familiarize himself with compression magic.

He had to achieve a 100% success rate.

While the two were chatting a figure appeared in the passageway.

Karl subconsciously looked over.

It was Elena's sister, Diana.

She looked different from when he met her a few days ago.

She was fully clad in armor and had a helmet on her head. She looked rather valiant.

Diana carried a great sword on her back and a short sword in her hand.

"Sister."

Elena had been chatting happily with Karl. When she saw Diana, she immediately stopped.

Diana came to stand beside Elena. She glanced at Karl and gave a soft snort.

She did not look happy.

It was obvious that she was unhappy over what happened a few days ago.

Karl ignored Diana's displeasure.

He studied the sisters.

Regardless of looks or height, the two of them were almost identical.

However, their depositions were slightly different.

Diana's deposition was cold, like royalty. Compared to her, Elena was much gentler and cuter.

Both sisters had their own merits.

Then, his gaze landed on the two swords.

A great sword and a short sword.

They both glowed orange.

This meant that these two swords were rare weapons.

In the Magic Continent, there were different levels of weapons.

According to the light emitted, the weapon was defined as:

Green: Normal.

Blue: Elite.

Orange: Rare.

Purple: Epic.

Rose-gold: Godly.

The highest level of weapons was Legendary.

It was a level higher than Godly.

Of course, the glow of the weapon could be concealed.

Every tier could be further subdivided into LV1—LV9. Above that was LVMAX

The market price of a Rare weapon was 200,000 gold coins.

Diana bought two in one go. It was obvious she had money.

"The short sword is for you."

Diana handed her Short Sword to Elena and said, "After leaving the base, you have to stay by my side."

"Got it."

Elena took the short sword and said, "Sister, let's go with Karl. The three of us can take care of each other."

"Sure."

Diana glanced at Karl. "Don't drag me down, I won't be able to help you."

"Hehe."

Karl smiled and said, "I don't have the habit of fighting with low IQ people. You guys can go together."

After which he looked at Elena and said, "You sisters can go together. I'm used to being alone."

Then, he turned around and left.

Since Diana didn't like him, why would he want to go with her? Impossible.

"Karl!"

Elena called out to him but Karl didn't look back.

"Leave him alone. Let's go."

Diana looked at Karl's back and gritted her teeth.

How dare he say that she was not as smart as Elena?

If she hadn't known that she was no match for Karl, she would definitely teach him a lesson.

…

Karl came to the bottom of the city wall. A few soldiers looked at Karl.

These soldiers were equipped with elite weapons. Their eyes were filled with killing intent and their auras fierce.

Although they were not mages, they had an imposing manner that even many low-level mages did not have.

Obviously, these soldiers had survived countless battles with magical beasts.

"Honorable Mage, be careful outside."

A soldier said to Karl.

Since a mage had come here, there was no need to ask what he was doing. He was definitely going out.

Therefore, the soldiers did not waste any time and directly opened the city gate.

Karl walked out.

There were more magical beasts outside the base than he expected.

The more magical beasts there were, the more dangerous it was.

Within a radius of a hundred miles, it was quite a large area of land.

Even though there was a patrol team, it was impossible that they would meet up so coincidentally.

Therefore, he had to rely on himself.

Before long, Karl encountered a magical beast.

Karl encountered a magical beast.

"A Level One magical beast, Azure Armored Snake. It travels alone. It uses its own body to crush and break every bone of its prey. Be careful of the venom secreted from its teeth. The venom can kill a Level Two magical beast!"

When he saw this Azure Armored Snake, its thick body was coiled around a large tree.

It stuck its head down and darted its tongue out at Karl from afar.

This Azure Armored Snake's entire body was covered in azure scales that glistened coldly.

An ordinary sword would not even leave a mark on it.

Its eyes were crimson red and its expression was ferocious.

Looking at the Azure Armored Snake, Karl lowered his hand and condense a sizzling ball of lightning magic.

The magic ball was compressed to the size of a fist.

He could compress it no further.

Obviously, he did not manage to compress it successfully this time.

Although he could occasionally compress it successfully, he had only just figured out how to do it and was still very unfamiliar with it.

He was not familiar with the technique yet.

Naturally, he could not successfully compress it every time.
