A fist-sized magic ball condensed in Karl's hand.

"Boom!"

With a thunderous explosion, he released the magic ball. The Azure Armored Snake was unable to dodge in time and was struck directly.

"Hiss!"

The Azure Armored Snake from the attack.

Its shimmering green scales were charred black. Its bloody flesh could even be seen on some parts of its body.

Its huge head hung down weakly, causing the huge tree to shake violently and a few leaves to fall.

Then, Karl opened its head and took out the magic crystal.

In the Holy Vestige Magic Academy, magical crystals had another use, which was to exchange for points.

Karl felt that he had to accumulate some points. Who knew when he would need to use them.

Karl felt that it was a waste of time to collect the magic crystals.

"Next time, I have to control the power of my attacks so that I can burn the body of the magical beast, but not destroy the magical crystal. That way, I can save myself some time to retrieve the magical crystal."

Karl muttered.

Then, Karl continued walking in.

Before long.

Screech!

With a cry, a huge figure swooped down from above Karl.

This figure covered the red sun in the sky, casting down a large shadow.

"A Level One magical beast, the Green-Scaled Eagle. It has extremely sharp claws that can crush the heads of its prey."

Karl looked up at the Green Scaled Eagle.

The magic ball condensed in his palm. This time, it was still compressed to the size of a fist. However, Karl did not get affected by it.

He was in no hurry. He could take his time.

He would get used to it eventually.

Following which, Karl released the magic ball in his hand and hit the body of the Green Scaled Eagle that was diving towards him.

With a loud rumble, the Green Scaled Eagle did not even let out a screech.

It was blasted into ashes by Karl's attack.

The ashes were blown away by the wind. A magical crystal emitting a blue glow fell into Karl's hands.

He put it away.

Then, he continued onward.

Karl wandered within a hundred miles of the edge of the base the whole day.

At dusk.

Karl was completely familiar with the process of compressing magic.

Now, the success rate has basically reached 100%.

He was very satisfied with this situation.

Karl looked at the sky. The sun was already setting in the west. However, due to the Devil's Den being shrouded in demonic energy, it was already dark.

Karl found his way and planned to kill his way back to the base.

A few kilometers away.

On a grassy plain.

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

Diana waved her great sword coldly.

She was able to kill a magical beast every time she attacked.

The magical beasts were either cut in half by the sharp edge of the sword, or smashed into pieces by the back of the sword.

Elena stood behind Diana, in charge of defense.

Every time a magical beast tried to attack Diana from behind, Elena would kill it with her short sword.

One in front and one in the back. Such teamwork was very efficient.

But, the two sisters were in despair.

There were hundreds of magical beasts around.

Level One magical beasts, Bloodthirsty Ants.

The Bloodthirsty Ants were not very big. Each of them was only the size of a fist. However, there were too many of them.

If Diana had not been enlightened during the battle and successfully advanced to the advanced stage of a two-star mage, given the current situation, the two sisters would have long been dismembered by these Bloodthirsty Ants.

After all, although the Bloodthirsty Ants were Class One magical beasts,

However, the classifications of the magical beasts were not as clear as that of the mages.

The mages' ranks were divided into beginner stage, intermediate stage, advanced stage.

Therefore, even if the magical beasts were of the same level, their strength would be different. There were some which were stronger, and some which were weaker.

If they were divided according to the rank of mages, these Bloodthirsty Ants were at most at the beginner stage of Level One magical beasts.

Hence, Diana and Elena could handle them in a short period of time.

However, the Bloodthirsty Ants were, after all, a group of magical beasts. Furthermore, they were exceptionally united. Once Diana and Elena were targeted, they would be attacked by countless Bloodthirsty Ants.

Until they escape or get eaten by them.

Under such circumstances, even though the two sisters had higher ranks than the Bloodthirsty Ants, they were still facing an endless swarm of them.

Their energy was slowly consumed as they slowly sank into despair.

Now, the two sisters no longer dared to cast their magic.

After all, casting magic would consume their spiritual energy, and the Bloodthirsty Ants would not give them a chance to restore their energy.

Once they casted magic, they would probably die even faster.

Therefore, they could only use their weapons to attack, hoping to stall time and wait for the arrival of the patrol team.

However, even after waiting for a long time, the patrol team did not come.

"Bang!"

At this moment, Diana was exhausted.

A Bloodthirsty Ant bit down on her giant sword.

The teeth of the Bloodthirsty Ants were their most powerful weapons. They were extremely sharp and could bite through metal.

However, this giant sword was a rare weapon after all. The materials used were many times stronger than metals.

Hence, the weapon was fine, but the Bloodthirsty Ant's teeth shattered.

At this moment, a Bloodthirsty Ant that was significantly larger attacked Diana's thigh from below.

"Courting death!"

Diana shouted coldly. As she killed the Bloodthirsty Demonic Ant that was biting her sword, she dodged.

Bang!

Fortunately, Diana dodged in time and was not injured. However, the armor on her thighs and the clothes on her body were bitten into pieces.

Her fair thighs were exposed.

Part of her underwear could be seen.

Fortunately, there were no outsiders here, so no one could see.

However, Diana was still furious and slashed the Bloodthirsty Ant into two.

Then, while fighting, she said to Elena, "If the patrol team still doesn't come, I'll use my magic to clear out an area. When the time comes, you leave first. I'll block them from behind."

"No."

Elena, who was usually gentle and weak, said firmly.

She knew what her sister's decision meant.

Both of them were already exhausted from fighting the Bloodthirsty Ants.

If she were to use her magic to clear out an area at this time, it would worsen her already depleted spiritual energy.

And if she leaves, Diana would not last long.

How could she escape alone?

"I'm your elder sister. Listen to me. If I tell you to leave, leave." Diana's tone was firm.

"No!" Elena said stubbornly.

At the same time, she prayed for the patrol team to come quickly.

However, the patrol team did not come. Just as the sisters were in complete despair and Diana was about to release her magic to help her sister escape.

"Boom!"

A clap of thunder.

A large expanse of lightning descended in the area.
