Chapter 256: Trapped



Aur had only used one hundredth of his strength, yet he was able to punch Almer to death in an instant.

After all, Almer was a peak tier one wizard.

Previously, if Aur had fought with him—even if Aur had used his full strength and surprise attacked him catching him off guard, he still didn't have the confidence to kill the guy.

But now, just one percent of his strength was enough to kill him like a mere bug. That meant his strength had increased by at least a hundredfold, and even more!

Feeling the boiling blood and Qi, Aur wasn't satisfied yet. He wanted to fight and vent his power, and he needed a target for that.

Just as he was about to leave, suddenly a yelp sounded from outside, making Aur involuntarily freeze.

"Murder! Murder!"

The servant cried out loud with a panicked voice and ran away with his eyes closed.

Aur rubbed his forehead. He could have easily felt the presence of that servant if he had even an iota of focus.

However, the rush from his newfound strength made him distracted for a moment, and this servant had arrived at the exact time.

Without much hesitation, he looted Elmer's body and used the Thieving Hands spell on him, stealing a spell before casually leaving through the windows.

However, surprisingly, just as he wanted to leave, he found himself trapped by an encampment of ten peak tier one wizards.

"How did they find me so quickly?" Aur's heart skipped a beat as he looked at the group of ten.

Peak tier one wizards were still a rare existence, yet they appeared just after the alarm was raised. It had been less than twenty breaths since they were alerted, but these individuals had already found him.

"First Brother, we are in trouble. This guy really killed Alchemist Elmer," one of them said with apprehension, looking at the man who was leading the group.

"First brother, is this guy crazy? With our combined strength, we are infinitely closer to a tier two wizard in strength, and even some weaker Elders were careful of us with these gales that we can conjure up. And he dared to face it head-on. He is simply a fool," one of them voiced with disdain.

The first brother nodded with a satisfied expression. With the mysterious assassin covered in the gale, even if he wasn't dead, he should be seriously injured, on the verge of dying.

The only heartache he felt was for the Alchemist Elmer's death. Losing such a person would undoubtedly result in punishment from Noah.

Just as he was thinking, he was startled to see the man with the capybara mask entirely unharmed after the gale dissipated a little.

"This... This is impossible," he muttered. Almost all the parts of the black robes that the man was wearing were torn to shreds, revealing his contours of muscle, making him half-naked.

But there was not a single trace of blood seen on his body.

"The defence of my body has reached a power comparable to using a tier two defence spell."

Aur smiled coldly hidden underneath his capybara mask and instantly moved through the void, appearing in front of the person called the first brother, and lightly punching the guy.

Although it was a light punch, the feeling the first brother got was like facing an insurmountable mountain, making him feel like an ant, and the fist was like an execution to him.

The first brother wanted to move, however, he was firmly locked by some inexplicable energy that made him unable to dodge. The punch descended on him and destroyed his entire being, reduced to smithereens, with only some blood mist visible remains of a once powerful peak tier one wizard.

"First brother," the nine called out with expressions filled with despair. The punch that Aur had landed took just ten breaths of time, which was not enough for them to react. All they saw was Aur moving, and their first brother reduced to blood mist.

Aur looked at the remaining nine with a cold expression.

"If I can't destroy the barrier, then I can kill you, and naturally, it will be broken."

His cold voice fell, and another one of them fell in an instant, leaving the eight brothers stricken with fear their instinct flared with despair on their faces.

They knew they were done for!
