Chapter 1143 The power of Lesser Fireballs
A lot had happened tonight, so of which really subverted lgor’s outlook. He could not help but start recalling so of the things he had said to Ren Xiaosu.
When lgor initially captured Ren Xiaosu, Ren Xiaosu was told he would not want to return to the Central Plains anymore after he found out how powerful sorcerers were.
Later, when lgor and the two servants got ambushed, lgor branded Ren Xiaosu an oaf and told him not to rashly pursue the attacker. He didn’t think Ren Xiaosu had any chance against a sorcerer.
And even later… it seed like he had sothing to criticize daily regarding Ren Xiaosu’s bragging too.
In this train of thought, lgor could not help but peek on Ren Xiaosu’s expression. Seeing that Ren Xiaosu did not seem to bear a grudge against him, lgor slowly relaxed.
lgor asked softly, “What happened to that sorcerer who attacked with Fla Pillar?”
lgor realized what was going on. If Ren Xiaosu were really hiding his strength all this while, the bounty hunter he went after might be dead. Although that bounty hunter was strong, he was not that powerful. Based on the strange abilities displayed by Ren Xiaosu here, it would not necessarily be difficult for him to kill that bounty hunter. However, lgor could not be sure. He just thought of asking
When Ren Xiaosu heard this question, he said with a smile, “I didn’t manage to catch up to him. Didn’t he co back in the white mask after that and start a fire in Yorktown?”
“Oh, right.” lgor recalled that incident. It seed the bounty hunter was indeed still alive.
The enemies outside had already lost their archers’ fire support. As a result, they could not break through the defenses of the wagon fort and gradually retreated.
After the enemy retreated, Qian Weining and his n gradually stopped crying.
lgor asked Ren Xiaosu in a low voice, “Those people were here to kill , right?”
“Just pretend you don’t know that.” Ren Xiaosu smiled and said, “Qian Weining and his n are also unsure. They might be thinking that the enemy was actually after them. Either way, they’ll still be heading north, so we can just use them as our cover.”
Ren Xiaosu guessed that the Houses of Tudor and Norman had not noticed this trade caravan yet. Otherwise, there would definitely have been several tis more attackers than ca.
For the other party to send more than a 100 elite knights after lgor was already an overreaction. Most of them had probably been sent to deal with Ren Xiaosu, or to be precise, deal with Old Xu.
anwhile, Qian Weining and his n had been dragged into undeserved misfortune.
From the look of things, Ren Xiaosu had really angered the Tudor family’s patriarch by poking his nostrils with a tree branch.
When it quieted down outside the wagon fort, Qian Weining led his n out to check on the situation with a stern expression.
The first thing he checked were the archers’ corpses.
After arriving at where the archers had been, Qian Weining gasped when he saw their corpses lying all over the place. Other than one person who had an arrow stuck in his forehead, all the other archers had died from a strong impact to their chests, which were marked by burn marks.
In other words, Qian Weining only managed to hit one target after firing off more than 40 arrows with his eyes closed.
His image as a sharpshooter instantly crumbled!
But Qian Weining felt a little indignant. He clearly felt in terrific form when he was nocking the arrows and firing at the enemy just now!

Qian Weining’s trusted aide, who was standing next to him, knew what his superior was thinking. He comforted, “Sir, it was already not easy for you to hit one enemy by distinguishing their position with only your ears. You don’t have to feel bad about it.”
“That’s right. Sir, you’ve never practiced archery with your eyes closed before, so it’s only normal that you missed.”
“Mhm.” Qian Weining replied calmly, “Check the injuries of the others to determine if they were killed by Lord lgor.”
The guards imdiately started inspecting the battlefield. Very quickly, soone wondered, “Is Lord lgor’s Fireball that powerful? Look, this archer’s chest caved in!”
Qian Weining was stunned. He went over and squatted down to check on the wound. Just as the guard had said, there was a fist-sized depression on the archer’s chest where it was burnt.
Qian Weining gasped. “It would take many years of practice to muster up a fireball this powerful, right? I didn’t expect lgor to be this strong. I’ve underestimated him!”
Although Qian Weining and his n were not sorcerers, they knew full well they could not punch soone to such a state through leather armor.
“Is this really the power of the Fireball spell?” One of the guards was a little puzzled.
“What else could it be?” Qian Weining thought for a mont and said, “We all saw him casting those fireballs with our own eyes. And now, the archers here are all dead.”
In the entire Kingdom of Sorcerers, very few people actually specialized in the Lesser Fireball spell. Although everyone mainly practiced only one or two types of spells, the destructive potential of a Lesser Fireball was still too low. Even if one practiced the spell for ten years, it would only be about as powerful as another’s Greater Fireball spell. Thus, no one would specialize in learning Lesser Fireball.
That was why Qian Weining and his n had never seen what a Lesser Fireball refined for many years looked like.
Next to him, his trusted aide said, “I didn’t expect Lord lgor to actually be this
powerful.”
Qian Weining felt a little upset. “Mhm, I guess so.”
After that, he ordered the guards to gather the bows and arrows before returning to the camp.
Soone went up to Qian Weining and asked, “Vice President Qian, are the enemies dead?”
Qian Weining said, “Mhm. At least, all the archers are dead. Without the archers providing them with covering fire, those who fled will definitely not dare to co back
again.”
“Vice President Qian is amazing,” a rchant praised.
Qian Weining thought for a mont and decided to tell the truth. “Lord lgor’s the amazing one this ti, not . He ‘s mastered his Fireball spell to perfection. All the archers were basically killed by him. There were 51 archers in total, and he killed 50 of them.”
At this mont, Qian Weining had a plan in mind. Their journey would definitely get very dangerous from here, so why not push lgor into the spotlight so that the enemy would focus on him?
In this way, wouldn’t they be much safer if all the enemies were to target lgor instead?
In an instant, everyone at the camp looked at lgor with admiration, making him feel a little uncomfortable.
Just as he was about to say sothing humble, he rembered what Ren Xiaosu told him. He braced himself and said, “Bandits will be rampant along the way. As a sorcerer, I must also shoulder my responsibilities. Don’t worry, with around, everyone will be fine.”
Li Chengguo wondered in a soft voice, “Why is Lord lgor speaking like Ren Xiaosu? Especially when he said that ‘with around.”
Next to him, Liu Ting suddenly said to Ren Xiaosu, “See that? That’s what makes sorcerers so powerful. Are you regretting not learning the language of the Magi with us now?”
Unintended remarks could be information to a concerned listener. When Qian Weining heard this, his imdiate reaction was that since Ren Xiaosu did not even know the language of the Magi, it would not be necessary to keep an eye on him anymore.
anwhile, lgor’s expression turned strange.
