?"Huh! Flexing too much will cause you to be struck by lightning," Farmyrth said contemptuously while looking at the Ninth Hero's purple light with disdain.
"Hahaha… I also hope lightning can kill . But… do you know that even a god cannot kill ?" The ninth hero said.
Although his voice was a bit sad and tired, the tone in which he spoke showed his arrogance and contempt for living beings.
Farmyrth also did not want to continue bantering with him, so she imdiately spoke up: "So... Alec and Harris did not violate the law, so they do not need to be punished."
"Alec and Harris also have the highest score compared to the other contestants, and they can advance to the third round."
Farmyrth waved her hand, and a giant water curtain appeared. The water curtain was divided into many areas.
In there, there was an area used to display the list of scores of candidates participating in the second round.
However, what attracted everyone's attention the most was not the top two nas on the list.
Of course, those positions were held by Alec and Harris. What they paid more attention to were the last two people, Lathel and Claire, who both had a score of 0.
"Good! Take them out." Farmyrth spoke, and right after that, a middle-aged man dragged Alec and Harris out.
Before being taken away, Alec and Harris also saw Lathel's score, which was zero. This made Alec feel more contempt for Lathel, and it also made him feel more comfortable.
Harris was different. When he saw that Lathel's score was zero, he frowned, and he got lost in thought.
After everyone left, Farmyrth spoke up: "As you can see, the rescue work is underway, your juniors are being rescued."
"However, if anyone dies, it is that person's fate, or maybe… that person is just weak."
Everyone was silent; Farmyrth and the Ninth Hero had both said the sa thing, so they could only listen.
So people felt lucky in their hearts that their juniors survived, while most people's juniors were dead.
There were so people who felt angry because the juniors they had spent a lot of resources on training had died under the clutches of the Fire Drake.
So people breathed a sigh of relief because the juniors who died in this round of the competition were not people they focused too much resources on cultivating.
Everyone was just consud by their own thoughts.
Suddenly, an image startled everyone; even the Ninth Hero and Farmyrth were surprised at what was being displayed on the water curtain.
The ninth hero, Demon Lord, laughed loudly at this ti: "Hahahaha... Humanity really does have geniuses, this ti, it seems I was wrong."
"Farmyrth, it seems… you are really lucky."
Farmyrth didn't pay too much attention to what the Ninth Hero said, she just stared at the water curtain in front of her, while licking her lips sensually.
'Amleth, it seems… I have to taste your man.'
…
Lathel was now sitting with Claire around a fire in the woods.
Even though they had been travelling for nearly a day, they still had not reached the eting point.
However, they could see the tower in the distance. Lathel estimated that it was about 4-6 kilotres from this place to that location.
Therefore, he was not in a hurry, he sat in the forest and enjoyed so peace and fresh air in this place for the remaining ti.
Lathel glanced at Claire; she lowered her head to look at the fire when he looked at her, but she occasionally glanced at Lathel.
Lathel saw this scene and sighed. He felt that if Claire were on earth, he would definitely advise her to try becoming an actress.
She would definitely beco famous and get a little yellow human statue.
"Help !"
Suddenly, a sound rang out from afar, startling Lathel and Claire.
They turned around and saw a group of five people, both n and won, assisting each other to approach this place.
Lathel frowned when he saw the wounds on their bodies, especially the many burns.
There was even a girl who had very severe burns, her face was completely destroyed, her breathing was very weak, and she looked like she was hanging by a thread.
A young man in that group of five shouted loudly: "Help! Please, there are monsters chasing us."
Lathel quickly stood up and walked towards them. Claire suddenly grabbed the corner of his cloak, frowned, and said: "Lathel, we should be careful. They are most likely pretending to approach us to kill us."
Hearing that, he glanced at the five people, smiled gently, and said to Claire: "Don't worry, they don't look like they're tricking us."
"I'll go near them to check first. If anything strange happens, you should run first."
"I won't!" "I will never leave you behind," Claire shouted. I… I will be by your side."
The five people saw Claire and Lathel talking, so they could only remain silent.
Can you save us first? Please, this is not the ti to play a romantic drama. They all thought.
Lathel also noticed the look in the five people's eyes and shyly approached them: "What happened to you?"
The young man explained: "A monster attacked us; it seems to be a Drake, but it can use fire. Many contestants were burned to death by it. We were lucky to escape, but we are exhausted."
"Please, my friend is seriously injured, take us to the eting point."
"I will…"
"Stop talking." Lathel interrupted the young man's words, he quickly took out a porcelain vase from his empty bag and gave it to him.
"There is healing dicine inside, you and everyone else can use it."
"Thank you." The young man was so moved that his eyes were wet.
Even though he is a man, he could not keep his calm in a life-
threatening situation.
Lathel even gave him dicine without doubting his words, which made him and everyone feel moved.
"Cauldron, can a Drake use the fire elent?" Lathel silently asked Cauldron.
At this ti, Cauldron also communicated with Lathel through its thoughts: "Of course. Normally, a Drake only has strong physical strength and an outer scale as strong as tal."
"However, Drakes also possess a bit of dragon blood. Although the concentration of blood is not large, there are still mutant individuals from ti to ti."
"Those individuals can usually use the earth or fire elent."
Lathel was startled, he felt a bit worried and scared: 'That's terrible. Drakes already have scales that are harder than tal. If it also possesses the fire elent, it would be like an armoured tank.'
He gritted his teeth and asked everyone: "Where is the monster?"

The young man Lathel asked was also startled. He stretched out his hand and pointed deep inside the forest: "There, about 2 kilotres from here."
monster?"
The young man Lathel asked was also startled. He stretched "Is there anyone else there?" Lathel asked again.
"There were still a lot of people, they were trying to move to the gathering location, but they were attacked by that monster."
"Can't you choose another path?" Lathel frowned and asked.
"The other paths are very difficult, and they go through the territory of other monsters." The young man explained: "This is the shortest and easiest path."
"After entering this forest, it is very difficult to escape because both sides are cliffs, you can only run forward or backward."
Hearing that, Lathel also understood where the problem lay.
If they climbed the mountain, they would enter the territory of other monsters, so they decided to go into this forest.
But what people don't know is that in this forest, there is a monster that is much more terrifying than the monsters in the mountains.
Lathel frowned and said: "You guys go to the eting point, Claire, take them to the eting point, I will follow you."
"No!" Claire stood up and hurriedly walked to Lathel's side: "I'll go with you." I have the gift of Healing, I… I can help you."
"No need, you should help these people first. Just take them to the eting point." Lathel shook his head and replied: "Don't worry about , I just want to see if anyone else needs help and then leave imdiately."
"But…"
Claire wanted to say sothing, but Lathel imdiately interrupted: "Stop talking. Just do as I say, quickly!"
After Lathel finished speaking, he imdiately ran into the darkness. Claire stood there stunned, then gritted her teeth and said: "Follow , hurry up."
"Thanks…"
The young man was about to thank her when Claire turned her head to look at him with murderous intent. He imdiately fell silent, unable to say anything more.
After that, the five people looked at each other, knowing that Claire was extrely upset. They didn't want to anger her, so they just silently followed her.
…
Lathel ran less than two hundred tres when he saw a large fire in the distance.
He tried to run faster, but just a few minutes later, he saw a horrifying scene.
The ground was engulfed in fire, corpses were lying everywhere, and he estimated that there were more than twenty charred bodies.
In the distance, there were several people trying to escape, and their bodies were covered in blood and burns.
The most special thing here was a monster resembling a Komodo dragon with scales on its body that resembled that of red carp scales. The scales shone with the light of the surrounding fires.
It was more than three tres high and about seven tres long. The scales on its body were extrely sturdy; Lathel could see that no one using bows, arrows, or swords could scratch its scales.
"That is…" Lathel muttered.
At this ti, Cauldron said: "Yes, it is a Fire Drake. Its level is very high, around level 50, I can even feel that it is about to break through to level 60."
"Impossible!" Lathel gritted his teeth and said: "So many people died, but where are the academy staff?"
"It seems they are also fighting that monster." Cauldron explained: "This forest has a type of sealing magic that causes people whose level is higher than 40 to be level 40."
"That's why the Fire Drake monster here is no different from a wolf, and you guys are sheep."
"No OK! We must save them."
"Are you crazy?" Hearing Lathel speak, Cauldron shouted: "Didn't you hear what I just said? Its level is nearly 60, and your level is only 20. Do you think you can defeat it?
"But…" Lathel looked at the contestants participating in this round, who were desperately running away and even desperately trying to resist the monster's power.
Among those people, there were also a few who were employees of the academy, however, they could not resist the terrible power of the Fire Drake.
Lathel gritted his teeth and said: "Even if we can't defeat it, at least we can hold it back and let everyone run away."
"You… you are crazy!"
