A deep pit appeared on the ground, and a pillar of pitch-black flame erupted, with its top reaching the height of almost all the trees in the forest.

The pillar of fire continued to extend forward starting from Zancro's hands, and the black flames built a high wall with astonishing heat, almost penetrating the entire forest.

The scene where Zancro wanted to see the little mouse blown out of the ground by him did not appear.

He straightened up and covered his increasingly injured arm, angrily saying, "Find them for me! Even if we plow the ground, we have to find them!"

The subordinates did not dare to say anything and could only follow the order and disperse.

When Zancro was furious, several people underground were running away frantically.

"Down, down! Quick, quick, quick! Turn, turn! Hey, follow me!"

Rhodes quickly directed the two stone beetles to run along the route he envisioned.

Because he drilled deep enough and ran crooked enough, the movement on the ground had nothing to do with him.

The reason why they were so anxious was because except for him, the person who received the stone beetle, the other three people couldn't breathe.

You can easily suffocate if you stay underground for too long, and you can easily be discovered if you don't run far enough.

Rhodes had no choice but to run as fast as possible.

After escaping for about two or three minutes, Rhodes heard no footsteps on the ground, and then he led everyone up to take a breath.

Elfman and Mal coughed and took a few more deep breaths before they recovered.

Rhodes checked Vina's breathing, felt her pulse, and then breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that she was still alive.

"You...can you save Vina?" Mal still remembered what Elfman said, and his companions might have a way.

"The magic power is not enough now, wait a minute." Rhodes thought for a moment, "Change your clothes."

A medicine kit appeared in his hand.

"Here, help her treat the wound carefully. There are bandages, hemostatic medicine, glucose and saline, etc., you can use them as you see fit."

"Thank you." Mal quickly helped her sister treat the wound.

"Elfman, how is your injury?"

"man!"

It probably means 'can stand it', Rhodes nodded: "Okay, I will help you treat it when I recover some magic power."

"What about your enemy?"

"How should I put it? He should be considered a ruthless person."

Rhodes briefly told Elfman about his battle.

At that time, he recovered a little magic power and immediately went to find Rastilos with two explosive magic crystals.

But only one arm was found.

The wound on the arm was flat and purple. It was probably Rastilos who judged that he was too poisoned, so he made a knife and cut it off himself.

Because the guy was hit and flew too far, Rhodes didn't even know when he ran away.

So Rhodes said he was a ruthless person.

But I don't know why he would rather escape than deal with Rhodes, a guy who has almost exhausted his physical strength and magic power.

Rhodes guessed that Lastiros might have misjudged his magic power, or he might be in a hurry to go back and find a way to detoxify him.

In short, since he couldn't find anyone, Rhodes didn't waste much time and flew directly to the mountains and forests to look for Elfman.

I just didn't expect Elfman to be injured so seriously, and the target of their protection to be injured so seriously.

It's obviously just an ordinary investigation plus a missing person mission, so why is the devil's heart involved?

Both brothers almost failed here.

This is really like what the president said a few days ago, 'Sometimes it's easy to complete the task and get paid, sometimes you risk your life fighting and you may get nothing.'

After he finished speaking, Elfman also talked about what happened to them after the wild monsters disappeared.

After listening, Rhodes looked at Mal with a somewhat unhappy look.

However, there is a blood feud and it is understandable to be so impulsive.

It just irritates my teammates too much.

The only good news is that Elfman can actually receive it with his whole body.

Rhodes didn't know whether to feel sad or happy - this was different from the script he had envisioned. What he hoped to encounter was a safer incident and a softer change in Elfman's mentality. It was definitely not about the two brothers running away.

Come out and gamble your life with the devil's heart.

But whether this is a good thing or a bad thing, let’s wait until we escape safely.

"It's taken care of." Mal looked at Rhodes with guilt and hope.

Rhodes knew what he was waiting for and shook his head gently: "The magic power doesn't recover that fast. We have to find a place to hide quietly for a while."

A stone beetle emerged from the ground, raised its leg and pointed in one direction.

It heard footsteps over there.

"Let's go, someone is here to find us."

Several people hid and fled in circles for more than an hour, but they still could not stay away from the enemy's pursuit.

Mainly because you are carrying a seriously injured patient, so you have to pay attention to all aspects, which makes many methods of movement unusable.

After finally waiting for Rhodes to have almost enough magic power, he first summoned the golem and gave himself and Elfman a Crown of Insight each.

As long as you restore a little more magic power, you can feel more secure even if you are injured.

A few minutes later, Rhodes summoned the tree monster again and asked it to hang an ember crown on Vina and Elfman.

As for Rhodes himself, he can wait for the next wave.

Anyway, as long as there is no battle, summon blue first, then red, and the cycle repeats. Luo can become a perpetual motion machine.

Veena's face gradually gained color and her wounds began to heal.

Her situation is different from that of the old patriarch. She was injured for a short time, the emergency hemorrhage was barely stopped in time, and she is young. She is basically out of danger now.

"There! I've seen that weird crab!"

There are also sharp-eyed people among the group, and someone can spot a river crab hiding in the bushes with its protective color.

Rhodes and Elfman each moved their wrists. Although their injuries had not fully recovered, neither of them wanted to run away.

Grandma, I have never suffered this kind of injustice, being chased all over the mountains and plains by a bunch of minions.

At this moment, a red signal flare suddenly appeared in the sky.

A small blue figure broke into He Crab's field of vision and knocked over a man holding a staff.

Then he pulled out a fish from the small bag behind him, and Bang Bang knocked out the one holding the knife twice.

After doing this, he flew to the river crab and waved hello into the river crab's eyes.

"Happy!" Rhodes was a little surprised.

Elfman was stunned: "What?"

Rhodes said excitedly: "I saw Habi!"

"That is to say..."

It's impossible for Hapi to fly all the way from the guild at such a long distance. In other words, someone came with him.

Or maybe he and Natsu happened to be somewhere nearby where they could be contacted.

Anyway...

"The companions have arrived!"

Rhodes and Elfman almost cried with joy.

With injuries on his body, insufficient magic power, and the need to protect Mal and Vina, Rhodes was the most helpless he has been since he became a wizard.

When he faced the devil, he had the confidence to escape.

Although I just saw Habibi's figure now, a huge sense of security has already surged up.

Rhodes already wanted to lie down and rest.

Sacrifice: "The system is very abstract, but luckily so am I"

Introduction: I have not traveled through time, and the system insists that I have, but it doesn't matter, it can still run due to bugs, and has saved me from fire and water many times.

As for where this water and fire came from, don't worry.
