Chapter 245: Spirituality and Assassination on Aur?
"Aur, have you made the ten potions?" Noah asked with his classical smile.
Aur looked at Noah and replied respectfully, "No, Village Leader. To refine the ten mana potions isn't an easy task at all. I have barely made one potion."
"Oh, you already refined one?" Noah asked, his eyes brightening.
"Yes, Leader," Aur replied, nodding.
"Good," Noah nodded with a satisfied expression. "Give it to me."
Aur willed it, and a vial came out from the spatial ring containing a green liquid.
Noah's eyes brightened even more upon seeing the green liquid sparkling with spirituality.
"How pure is this potion?"
"I don't know, Leader," Aur replied simply.
Testing the purity of the potion required a special device, which he didn't have at the moment.
Noah hadn't provided it, and there was no market for such a device because for the vast majority, potions were a pipe dream that they could only dream of.
As for the big shots, they had it, but they kept it to themselves. So the only way Aur could get the device was from the caravan.
Unfortunately, these caravans wouldn't come this year or the next because of the beast tide.
The wilderness was blocked, and even if they could come, they wouldn't want to.
Who would risk their life for some profit? The profit wasn't worth risking their lives for, in simpler terms.
Noah nodded his head in understanding when he heard this, a chuckle escaping his lips.
"I forgot that you didn't have one, and I didn't give you one. My mistake, I apologise," Noah said with a kind smile, taking out a long thermometer-like device.
If anyone heard that the village leader was apologising to an Elder, and that too with the strength of the Tier One Wizard realm—a junior—they would undoubtedly be shocked to the core. But nevertheless, he did apologise to Aur.
"I have a hunch that Travis came looking for trouble because of this Elmer; otherwise, there is no way he would dare to mess with me in my own grand residence, no matter how hard the contempt in his heart is," Aur's eyes flared with killing intent as he walked towards his grand residence.
Just as he strolled through the empty road, devoid of living beings, he paused slightly, calmly surveying his surroundings.
The streets were unusually quiet, almost desolate, with the beast tide looming. While they naturally had a somewhat heavy and desolate expression, it wasn't to the point of complete silence, with people still visibly going about their business.
But these roads were completely devoid of anything, it wouldn't take a genius to figure out something was wrong with these places.
"Come out," Aur lightly said, his expression impassive, making it hard to discern his thoughts.
"Did you find us?" A cold voice resounded in the place.
"Yes," Aur casually nodded his head and moved back two steps.
Two daggers came right in front of him in his previous position, which would have likely skewered him if he hadn't moved in the nick of time.
However, with the power of his powerful muscles, his physical defence would have been more than enough to prevent the dagger from penetrating even his skin tissue.
Even if it was poisoned, with his strong blood and Qi, it wouldn't have been a problem to tank it.
Aur took out his bow, still maintaining a calm expression on his face.
With practised ease, he drew back the string, his muscles working in tandem as he channelled the raw power of his blood and Qi into the bow.
The air crackled with energy as his essence mingled with the bow, forming a swirling vortex of crimson light in the shape of an arrow.
Whoosh!
The arrow distorted the air as it travelled through the atmosphere. Just then, Aur poured his pale blue mana into the bow. Stay connected via m-v l|e'-novelhall.net
The moment he infused his mana, the patterns in his bow activated, and he felt a connection to the arrow.
"What is he doing?" a man, covered in a black cloak, thought, confusion evident as he observed the aimless arrows rapidly distorting the air around them.
Although the arrow might be powerful, without hitting the target, what's the point of shooting it anyway?
