“We won! We’ve won!”
Kane and the others surrounded the corpse of the Ice Python and cheered as if they had killed the Ice Python with their own hands!
Lily also heaved a sigh of relief after surviving the disaster.
“Here, your staff.” Noah returned the staff to Lily.
Lily took the staff and showed a rare smile.
“Thank you,” she said.
Originally, they would have died today, but because of a coincidence, Noah’s existence allowed them to survive.
Lily was extremely glad that Noah had joined their team. This was probably fate!
After returning the staff to Lily, Noah also turned his eyes to the body of the Ice Python.
He was very curious as to whether this Ice Python’s body also had that mysterious crystal. Absorbing that crystal seemed to be very beneficial to him.
At this time, Lily also walked toward the body of the Ice Python.
Walking to the front of the crowd, Lily began to instruct, “Hurry up and deal with this Ice Python. Other than its horns, teeth, and its life core, you can keep the rest of its body.
Hearing this, everyone was excited. They did not expect to get the precious parts of the Ice Python, but other than the few parts that Lily had mentioned, the rest of the parts added together were wealth that ordinary people could not even dream of.
For example, although Noah had blown up a lot of the ice armor on the body of the Ice Python, there were still many intact parts. These parts could be sold to forgers or kept to make an inner armor for himself.
Even if it was sold to official mages, there would be many mages fighting over it. After all, this was the skin of a second-grade magical beast!
Especially those mages who specialized in ice attribute magic, they would definitely regard it as a treasure!
There was also the flesh of the Ice Python, which contained the powerful life force of a magical beast. It was a good choice whether they ate it themselves or sold it to the knights.
As a result, the crowd quickly got into action.
This group of people had done these many times. Each and every one of them was extremely agile. The nearly 20-meter-long Ice Python was completely divided up by the group in less than two hours, leaving only some unimportant parts on the spot, waiting for other magical beasts to find them and eat them.
After dealing with it, Kane called three people to bring the Ice Python’s horns, teeth, and life core to Lily.
“You’ve worked hard. Tell everyone that we’ll be preparing to return to the city after a short rest.” Lily ordered.
“Understood.”
Noah was also a little excited when he heard the news of returning to the city. He could finally re-enter human society!
Collecting his thoughts, he once again looked at the mysterious crystal. Hence, it was called a life core.
While Noah was still curious, Lily reached out her right hand. An extremely beautiful bracelet on her wrist flashed. She swept it over her horns and teeth, and the two things disappeared in an instant!
Only the life core of the Ice Python was still in Lily’s hands.
Noah was extremely curious. Such a large horn and teeth seemed to be absorbed by Lily’s bracelet!
“What kind of magic is this?”
Lily turned around and walked to Noah.
“This is the life core of the Ice Python. It’s the most precious thing in its body. I’ll give it to you. Please accept it. Without you, we’d probably all be dead,” Lily said gratefully.
Looking at the life core that was like an ice crystal, Noah clearly felt a desire in his body again, as if a voice was urging him to absorb the life core.
“It’s a pity that you’re not an ice element mage. If you were an ice element mage, this life core would be of great help to your magic training. But it’s fine. When you return to the city, you can find other mages to trade. You should be able to exchange it for a fire element life core that is useful to you.”
Hearing Lily’s words, Noah looked surprised. From what she said, the life core was indeed used to help magicians cultivate, but it seemed to have attribute restrictions. He released fireballs, so Lily thought he was a fire magician and could not absorb the ice attribute life core.
However, this was where the problem lay. He had a strong feeling that he could absorb this ice-attribute life core!
There was a precedent for this. Did the giant bear and the giant wolf not have different attributes? One was of the fire element and the other was of the earth element. However, he had absorbed both life cores and had even inherited two spells from them. However, he had not used any of the giant bear’s spells.
From the looks of it, he seemed to be different from ordinary people. What was going on?
Noah’s first thought was Amelia. Amelia seemed to have done something to his body, which might be the reason.
However, so far, it should have been beneficial to him. Perhaps this was the gift that Amelia Arveis was talking about.
Who was Amelia?
Noah did not know, so he could only take it one step at a time.
Noah put away the life core of the Ice Python, but he did not notice that someone in the team was staring at the life core in his arms.
An hour later, everyone had rested and recuperated. Lily gave the order for everyone to return to Cozovo city.
On the way back, Noah was no longer invisible. The people in the team did not care if they could communicate with Noah and ran over to talk to him.
This was an official mage! If he could build a good relationship with them, the benefits he would receive would be unimaginable.
Especially Kane. Noah felt a little funny. A burly man was trying to please him like a girl.
His words were full of flattery and his posture was extremely respectful, just like how he treated Lily!
Every time they took a break to eat, Kane would always give Noah the most delicious part of the wild beasts he hunted.
The others were all ridiculing him, wondering if Kane was ready to betray Lily.
Hearing this, Kane’s enthusiasm was somewhat restrained. He did not want to do this either. He was afraid that Noah would hold a grudge. Although he did not do anything, it was the greatest insult to show any malice to an official mage!
Kane was afraid that Noah would cause trouble for him when he returned to the city, so he was flattering him. Fortunately, Noah did not seem to take it to heart. Although he did not speak the same language as the others, he always smiled at them. This was different from all the other magicians Kane had met.
All the mages he had seen were synonymous with high-spirited and unsociable. Every magician had pride in their bones. They disdained to associate with ordinary people, let alone mingle with them like Noah.
Just like that, in a rather relaxed atmosphere, the group got closer and closer to Cozovo city. However, on this day, they were suddenly attacked by a wave of magical beasts.
