“Wait!” Noah did not care if everyone understood what he meant and shouted.
The group of people stopped.
“What’s wrong?” Lily was the first to ask. She looked at Noah’s nervous expression as if she had discovered something.
“Kid, what are you shouting for?” Kane also asked curiously.
Noah did not reply. Instead, he stared ahead nervously. After absorbing the energy of the two crystals and hundreds of silver fish, his perception had changed. He could clearly feel the wind blowing and the grass moving about 100 meters away.
Just a moment ago, he had suddenly sensed something approaching them from not far away. At this moment, he sensed it again carefully and confirmed that there was indeed something slowly approaching them.
Although he did not know what it was, Noah’s subconscious told him that it was very dangerous!
Hence, Noah gestured at Lily.
Lily quickly understood Noah’s meaning.
“Are you saying that there’s something up ahead that can pose a threat to us?”
Noah nodded.
After receiving Noah’s response, Lily looked puzzled. Her illumination spell had a range of nearly ten meters, and her spiritual perception had a range of twenty meters. However, she could not see anything in front of her or within the range of her spiritual perception.
Could it be that his spiritual perception range was even wider than his? How was that possible? She was about to become an official mage, and Noah was about the same age as her, so it was impossible for him to be an official mage already.
Moreover, she did not feel any magic power from Noah at all!
Lily also believed that Noah would not stop them for no reason.
After some thought, Lily decided to send someone to check it out just in case.
“George, go and take a look.”
“Yes, Miss.”
After receiving the order, George Martin took out a metal cylinder and turned it. The top of the cylinder glowed, but the light was weaker than Lily’s magic and the range was smaller.
Noah’s expression was a little strange when he saw the metal cylinder because the cylinder in George’s hand looked like a flashlight on earth.
George walked forward with the shining metal cylinder in his hand.
Gradually, George walked out of the range of the illumination spell and saw a spot of light moving forward in the darkness.
“George, did you find anything?” Kane asked loudly.
“Captain, I didn’t find anything.” George replied.
“I knew you were just trying to be mysterious!” After receiving George’s response, Kane turned his head and looked at Noah fiercely.
“No way?” Noah was also a little puzzled.
He could still sense that there was something not far away, and it was still moving forward. From the looks of it, it should have already touched George.
While Noah was still confused, there was a sudden scream from George’s side.
“Ah! Miss, run!”
The group’s expressions changed drastically.
“George? George?” Kane called out again.
However, there was no response this time.
“There’s really something in there?” Kane looked at Noah in disbelief.
At this moment, Noah sensed that the thing not far away suddenly accelerated toward them.
Kane also reacted. quickly protect the lady and leave the cave!
Under the command, everyone protected Lily and ran toward the cave entrance.
George was about to become an official knight. As long as he was not an official knight or mage, he could protect himself even if he could not defeat his opponent. However, it was obvious that the unknown that George was facing was far beyond his strength, which was why he didn’t even have a chance to resist!
At this time, the thing behind him sped up again. Noah subconsciously looked back and saw a huge figure appear in his field of vision…
“What’s that?” Noah’s heart trembled.
The first thing that came into view was an incomparably huge head that looked like a snake. A pair of sharp venomous fangs were exposed, and just the fangs alone were half the height of a person.
Its entire head was covered in a layer of white frost, and there was still a pair of faintly protruding horns on the top of its head.
The giant snake’s eyes were like a pair of emeralds, flashing with an ominous glint. Its mouth emitted bursts of cold air, and everywhere it passed was instantly covered in a layer of frost.
The snake’s body was so huge that one could not even see its head. Its body was thicker than a well, and just the part that could be seen was nearly ten meters long.
The scales on its body also seemed to be made of pieces of ice crystals, making it look like it was covered in ice armor.
Lily looked back and saw the giant snake, her eyes full of disbelief.
“Giant Ice Python! A Giant Ice Python that’s about to become a second-grade magical beast!” Lily could not help but exclaim.
She could not figure out why there would be a second-grade magical beast here. The map clearly showed that they were in the area where ordinary magical beasts lived.
However, there was no time for her to think. Lily took out her staff again.
“Freedom wind elves, please give us your blessings, wind protection!”
The moment the spell was chanted, everyone’s body emitted a faint blue light. Then, Noah felt his body become lighter, and the result was that he ran faster. He even felt like he was about to fly.
“What a magical spell!”
With Lily’s help, the group quickly ran out of the cave.
However, before he could be happy, the Giant Ice Python also followed closely out of the cave, only a few dozen meters away from Noah and the others.
Kane and the others finally got a clear look at the giant creature in front of them. Under the pressure of the Ice Python, Kane and the other guards could not help but feel their legs go soft, and their hearts beat faster!
“Protect the young lady!” Kane took a deep breath and ordered everyone.
The rest of the people received the order and surrounded Lily, waiting for her.
“Don’t panic, everyone. This Giant Ice Python seems to be shedding its skin. Its strength is at most at the level of a first-grade magical beast. Everyone, listen to my command,” Lily also commanded calmly.
Noah looked at the Ice Python. Sure enough, the ice scales on its body seemed to be broken. This should be the sign of molting that Lily had mentioned.
Everyone was no longer so nervous after hearing Lily’s analysis. They were all experienced adventurers, and several of them were almost becoming official knights. Lily was even about to become an official sorcerer. Such a force could defeat any first-grade magical beast!
The Ice Python stood up and observed the group of humans in front of it. After some observation, it found that these humans were all extremely weak and could not pose a threat to it.
At the thought of this, the Ice Python was very relaxed. It flicked its tongue and crawled toward Lily and the others.
