Including those Green Jaw Feathers outside the sea of fire that hadn't been attracted by the sweet berries originally, under the urging order of the bird king, they also tried to rush into the sea of fire to rescue their king.
This was a "feast" of flames and fading lives.
When the Green Jaw Feathers lost their strength in the burning flames and became charred, Kay's heart also relaxed a lot.
Also paying attention to this flame feast were the underground humans who had long crouched and hidden around the Gray - White Valley.
The power of magic made these humans' fear and admiration for Kay and black magicians reach a peak.
They, who could barely read a few big words, didn't know the difference between a formal black magician and a black magic apprentice.
In short, for them, any existence wearing a black robe in Mosobula City was an object they mustn't provoke.
Kay was extremely satisfied with the power and effect of the Fire Wall Technique. As a covering attack magic, after being aided by the iron phosphorus powder, its power was greatly enhanced compared to the normal situation.
The only slight regret was that he didn't master the Fire Wall Technique thoroughly and skillfully enough, and the chanting speed when casting the spell was still a bit slow.
In a battle, a difference of a few seconds could very likely be the distance between life and death.
"Chirp!" When Kay was summarizing his mission and the process of releasing magic this time, a shrill and sharp cry came from the sea of fire.
I saw a large bird nearly one meter long leap over the flames in the boiling hot fire waves.
Behind this large bird, there were also seven or eight birds that were one size smaller following it.
It's a pity that the Green Jaw Feather tribe couldn't fly, and the scorching flames and thick smoke also restricted their movements.
Among the seven or eight Green Jaw Feathers, only three of the strongest ones finally followed the bird king out of the flames.
After rushing out of the flames, their originally green feathers also completely turned into a charred black, and there was even a faint smell of roasted meat in the air.
The Green Jaw Feather King that rushed out of the flames didn't choose to flee immediately. The death of a large number of its and the severe pain coming from all over its body made this low - level magic beast so angry that it was almost crazy.
After detecting Kay's aura, this bird king took huge steps and charged straight towards Kay.
From this, it could also be seen that low - level magic beasts had low intelligence and a rather impulsive personality.
If it were other black magic apprentices who were seriously injured like this, the first thing they would think of at that moment would definitely not be revenge, but to flee first.
Three adult Green Jaw Feathers that were also seriously injured rushed towards Kay along with the bird king.
In addition, the other four adult Green Jaw Feathers that weren't much affected outside the flames also rushed towards Kay together.
Without a sufficient group base, the few magic - transformed creatures and one low - level magic beast in front of Kay were no different from ants in his eyes.
Chants of incantations sounded one after another. This time, a giant hand burning with flames appeared in the darkness.
The power of the intermediate magic, Flame Hand, is even better than that of the Fire Wall Technique.
Because the nearby burning flames haven't been extinguished, the relatively rich fire elemental energy particles also make the Flame Hand that Kay released look a bit bigger than usual.
The moment the huge Flame Hand appeared, the movement of the Green Jaw Feather King running towards Kay suddenly stopped.
It's true that low - level magic beasts are irritable and have low intelligence, but that doesn't mean they like to seek death.
The desire for life and the fear of death made the Green Jaw Feather King, who was in a running state, want to turn around and leave.
But at this time, it was already too late for it to run away!
The huge Flame Hand instantly caught up with the Green Jaw Feather King. With just a light squeeze, it not only completely roasted the Green Jaw Feather King, but also turned the several adult Green Jaw Feathers beside it into charred pieces.
The death of the Green Jaw Feather King and the increasingly intense flame heat around finally made the remaining few Green Jaw Feathers completely lose their fighting spirit.
Under the threat of flames on all sides, these few Green Jaw Feathers scattered and fled. They didn't even care about the young Green Jaw Feathers and the more important Green Jaw Feather eggs behind them.
A big fire made the Gray - White Valley as bright as day.
When the flames gradually dissipated and the high temperature was neutralized in the cold and dark environment of the underground world, Kay was finally able to count his trophies.
Twenty - one charred adult Green Jaw Feathers and one Green Jaw Feather King were the biggest gains of Kay's trip.
He took off the most precious claws and beaks of these Green Jaw Feathers. Half of the claws needed to be handed over, which was the proof that Kay completed the task.
He could choose to give the other half of the claws and beaks to Baus for sale, or keep some for himself.
Kay had been learning alchemy from his mentor Moses for some time. Seeing his mentor and senior brother working at the experimental platform all the time, Kay was also eager to have a try.
It would be a waste to give him too precious materials to use. Obviously, these Green Jaw Feather claws and beaks with weak elemental power were just right for him to practice with.
In addition to the above twenty - two Green Jaw Feathers, Kay's other gain from this trip was seven eggs a little bigger than fists.
Just a rough calculation showed that Kay's income this time exceeded two hundred black gold coins.
Plus he himself basically didn't consume much, it was simply a windfall, so Kay's mood became much better because of this.
The only drawback was that Kay didn't have a space equipment. He couldn't pack all the trophies and take them away, so he could only choose the most valuable parts.
Green Jaw Feather claws, beaks, and eggs filled the package Kay was carrying on his back. He even took a hind leg of the Green Jaw Feather King and tied it around his waist.
This hind leg was what he planned to take back and slaughter for Lina.
As a black magic apprentice, after dealing with the trophies at hand, Kay's appearance at this time was really not flattering.
He looked more like a hunter than a magician. Kay didn't care about the change in his appearance. He walked all the way out of the Gray - White Valley.
When he came to the outside of the valley, those underground humans appeared in front of Kay one after another.
What made Kay a little stunned and speechless was that these humans even joined forces to carry a severely injured and dying adult Green Jaw Feather, obviously waiting for Kay's arrival.
The value of a magic - transformed creature couldn't attract Kay at all. After all, he wasn't a newly enrolled beginner apprentice anymore.
With these underground humans looking at him with惊, Kay said, "You can take this Green Jaw Feather and divide it. Including in the Gray - White Valley now, there are also some Green Jaw Feather residues and the bodies of young Green Jaw Feathers."
"These things should be enough to make up for the loss of your moss field being burned in a large area."
Kay's words made these underground humans immediately kneel down to him excitedly.
Not all black magic apprentices were as easy - going as Kay. Although it hurt these underground humans that a lot of the moss field was burned by flames, it was still better than all of it being eaten and occupied by the flock of Green Jaw Feathers.
And dozens of Green Jaw Feather bodies, which Kay didn't think much of, were treasures for these underground humans.
Meat has always been a luxury among ordinary humans in Mosobula City, not to mention the flesh and blood of magic - transformed creatures and low - level magic beasts inside.
Kay guessed that these humans probably wouldn't be willing to eat the Green Jaw Feather meat themselves, or only eat a little, and choose to sell most of it.
No creature in the underground world lives easily. Everyone is just desperately trying to survive.
Looking at these underground humans in front of him crying while constantly kneeling and worshiping, and the sincere gratitude they showed, Kay's cold heart, which was formed under the cruel and oppressive atmosphere of the Black Magic Academy, was also slightly touched.
After leaving the Gray - White Valley, Kay went straight back in the direction of Mosobula City.
Before leaving, he had already told those underground humans to deal with the corpse residues of the Green Jaw Feather flock as soon as possible.
Otherwise, when the smell of blood and flesh completely dissipated, maybe next time Kay would have to come here again to complete some academy task.
The large number of trophies he carried with him didn't slow Kay down much.
His physique was top - notch among intermediate magic apprentices, and besides, those trophies weren't actually heavy, they just took up a lot of space.
Therefore, in the darkness, Kay was like a huge black shadow moving quickly.
The distance from the Gray - White Valley to Mosobula City wasn't far. As Kay had imagined before he set out, he could complete this task within five days.
No, to be precise, four days were enough for him to carry out the task and return to the academy.
This was a relatively "safe" road.
But maybe it was the impact of the big fire in the Gray - White Valley, or maybe Kay's luck was really not good this time. On the way back, he encountered an accident.
In the darkness, a blinding light flashed in front of Kay in an instant.
Suddenly facing a life - threatening crisis, the hairs on Kay's body stood on end.
He even felt a chill on his neck under the magic robe.
Fortunately, Kay reacted quickly and rolled sideways in time. Otherwise, his neck would most likely have been cut off directly.
The slight numbness coming from his neck made Kay, who had rolled to the ground, feel a little stiff.
Almost instinctively, Kay raised his arm hidden under the black robe.
Relying on the faint wide vision provided by the pale mask in the darkness, Kay's strong acid staff suddenly fired!
The attacker had been lying in ambush here for a long time, including with the idea of a one - hit kill.
The previous attack had already cost it a lot of strength, and it also didn't expect that Kay could dodge in time and still have the strength to fight back.
The advanced magic corrosive acid liquid by the strong acid staff even made a sound similar to breaking through the air in the darkness.
A sound immediately followed, and Kay successfully hit the attacker.
The power of the strong acid staff had been demonstrated before.
This attacker obviously wasn't an existence that could withstand an advanced magic. After struggling to take a few steps, it finally fell down with a bang.
It was only then that Kay, suppressing the increasingly obvious numbness in his body, gradually walked to the attacker.
In the darkness, what gradually appeared in front of Kay was a dwarf wearing black moss - skin clothes and only 1.2 meters tall.
Two huge, pure black eyes without pupils marked the other's non - human identity.
And the short dagger in its hand, with a mixture of pale blue enchanting juice and blood on the blade, was obviously the weapon that injured Kay.
