When the two felt the energy produced by the explosion, they both trembled. Jess swallowed and said in a trembling voice, “In such an explosion, the girl is most likely gone.”
“Alas, we are still late.” Mallory sighed.
When they saw the man and the horse not far from the battle scene, their mouths couldn’t help twitching two times. They were speechless to the extreme. At this time, Locke had changed into new clothes and was lying leisurely on a rock. Sleipnir was also joking. They were not anxious at all.
Finally, the flames began to disperse.
The two men, who were about to move, froze again.
A purple transparent light curtain enveloped Athena in the middle. Besides the position where Athena was standing, the ground had already been cracked by the energy of the explosion, and there were uneven pits everywhere.
When Mallory and Kipling were still astonished, Athena had disappeared from where she stood and then appeared next to the vulture.
The vulture’s blood-red eyes also moved slightly. It seemed a little unexpected.
Bang!
The vulture was kicked into the sky by Athena.
Then, Athena waved her hand, and the Sword in the Stone beside Locke turned into a beam of light and slid directly into the vulture in the air.
Boom!
The sky shone brightly with a loud bang.
Puff!
The vulture fell straight to the ground. Its heart was injured heavily, and its whole body was charred black. It died completely.
Athena ignored the vulture in the distance and looked at the jungle.
Under the gaze of Athena, a man in a shabby robe slowly walked out.
This man, of course, was the god of death, Thanatos.
However, at this time, Thanatos looked very strange. More precisely, he felt guilty.
Stared by Athena, he felt a deep chill. He could tell that Athena was in a bad mood.
Well, he admitted that he had wrongly estimated the relationship between Athena and the young man in front of him.
Just as Thanatos became scared, Athena suddenly looked away and walked towards Locke and Sleipnir.
He breathed a sigh of relief. Being stared at by Athena, he always had a creepy feeling. However, at this time, he heard Athena’s cold voice, “I’ll settle the matter with you later.”
When he heard this, Thanatos’s cold face completely stiffened.
Now he finally understood that Athena was still the powerful and violent goddess. She would just be gentle to Locke!
“Old man, am I out of my mind?”
Among the bushes, looking at the dead body of the vulture in the distance, Malloy asked in a trembling voice with a dull look.
Next to him, Kipling was also shocked. It seemed that he couldn’t believe what he saw.
A young girl of 18 or 19 years old actually crushed a furious level-6 magical beast! It sounded ridiculous. He even doubted if he was dreaming.
But all the things around them proved that everything in front of them was true!
“Now, there is only one possibility.” Looking at Athena in the distance, Mallory said seriously, “Miss Athena is a super-powerful person, but because of her strong strength, she has the effect of returning to her youth.”
As the strength of Icacia Continent increased, the aging speed of practitioners would slow down. After reaching level 8, their faces would be fixed and no longer change. Even so, those who could become level-8 practitioners were all hundreds of years old, so they wouldn’t be so young. However, some people loved beauty and used all kinds of methods to fix their faces at a young age.
They regarded Athena as a strong woman.
At the thought of the scene when Athena was going to look for Locke alone and the two of them were against it with all their might and told Athena how dangerous the Nariel Mountains of Magical Beasts was, Mallory felt very ashamed and blushed.
“Those who can easily kill level-6 magical beasts are at least level-7 practitioners.” He nodded in agreement.
As he spoke, he withdrew his sight from the Thanatos in the distance and slowly analyzed, “But this man…”
Although he couldn’t feel any energy fluctuation from Thanatos, he could always feel a deep sense of threat.
When Kipling was analyzing the situation, he suddenly found that Mallory, who had been silent for a long time, turned his head and found that Locke’s face was pale, with sweat on his forehead, and there seemed to be something horrible in his eyes.
Following Mallory’s gaze, he found that the strange middle-aged man in a shabby black robe with a cold face was looking in their direction calmly. There seemed to be two nether fires from hell burning in his eyes, which made them feel cold all over. They were like sharp blades stabbing into their hearts.
Fortunately, the man with horrible eyes just glanced at them and then looked away with no interest. But obviously, the two were found.
The two walked out of the woods slowly.
For the two people who suddenly came out, no one was surprised, no matter whether it was Locke, Athena or Sleipnir. The moment the two appeared, they already knew.
“Master Athena.”
Mallory and Kipling bowed to Athena respectfully.
Athena nodded slightly. It seemed that she had always been so cold except for Locke.
Noticing that Athena didn’t want to talk more, Mallory didn’t continue. Instead, he looked at Locke. Mallory asked, “Locke, are you okay?”
“Don’t worry. No problem.” Locke patted his chest and nodded with a smile.
“This is Marquis Hyman’s father, Kipling Hyman.” Looking at the old man with the white beard and round face, Mallory introduced him. Then he added helplessly, “Now it seems that we are useless now.”
“Thank you.”
Locke bowed to them and said with a smile. The two were very thoughtful enough to risk their lives to go deep into the Nariel Mountains of Magical Beasts to save him.
“You’re welcome, Mr. Capet.”
Kipling shook his head and sighed, “I’ve heard that Mr. Capet is handsome and talented. Today I see him and he is really extraordinary.”
“Thank you, Mr. Hyman.”
Locke replied modestly. After saying that, his face became serious. “I arrived at the depths of the Nariel Mountains of Magical Beasts by accident.”
He knew the identities of the two men in black robes and the usage of the magic array, so he wanted to ask Mallory if he knew something.
“You have reached the depth of the Nariel Mountains of Magical Beasts?”
Mallory was a little stunned and took a deep breath. After making sure that he didn’t mishear, he asked in disbelief.
Locke nodded. “In the depths of the Nariel Mountains of Magical Beasts, I saw a huge mysterious magic array. In the middle of the magic array, there was extremely dark energy…”
Then Locke told him what he had seen and heard in the depths of the magical beast mountain range. Of course, he didn’t mention Badal and Thanatos. He just said that he had seen the magic array and encountered two dark mages. Since they saw that he was weak, they sent the level-6 vulture to chase him.
With Locke’s narration, Mallory became more and more serious.
“Then I ran all the way here.”
After saying that, Locke stopped and looked at Mallory. Judging from the expressions of Mallory and Kipling, he believed that Mallory must know something.
Frowning, Mallory said with certainty, “These two dark mages must be members of the depraved organization.”
Depraved organization?
Locke was stunned. It seemed that he had never heard of this organization before.
