421: Chapter 421 Mo Qi, Shenzhou Kingdom

He retreated in fear. A magical beast possessing extraordinary power and one without were completely different concepts. Even those Great Knights who claimed to be able to slay magical beasts were only capable of slaying ordinary ones.

The scorching flames burned the wooden shafts of the arrow rain into charcoal. With another roar from the Second Senior Brother, the sound waves, carrying a massive shockwave, sent all the arrowheads flying away.

When the Black Wolf saw the Mountain Boar manipulating flames, he knew it was over. Magical beasts that controlled extraordinary power were things even noble Great Knights dared not easily confront. Last time, when they campaigned against a giant deer magical beast that could control vegetation, several great nobles had to mobilize three Great Knights and dozens of Medal Knights just to exterminate it.

And now...

The Black Wolf turned and ran toward the jungle. Although their Wolf King Stronghold was powerful, the entire stronghold relied on plundering, and they only had one Great Knight, Silver Wolf.

He felt a scorching heat behind him.

Turning around, he saw a fireball.

"No..."

The Black Wolf turned into a humanoid piece of charcoal, with scorching flames crackling on his body.

The few Wolf Bandits following behind were terrified.

"Lord Black Wolf is dead! Lord Black Wolf is dead!"

All the Wolf Bandits were already terrified, but because of the Black Wolf's cruelty, they dared not flee easily. Now that they heard the Black Wolf was dead, they were so scared that they all fled into the jungle!

"Kill!" A young guard, blood rushing to his head, chased after them, intending to rush into the jungle, but was grabbed by the collar and pulled back by the guard captain. "Kill your head! Everyone prepare, drive the carriages and leave here quickly!"

Half a day later, the sky gradually darkened.

The carriages began to stop, but everyone looked at the person riding on the Mountain Boar with even more awe. The gap in strength made them not even dare to feel jealousy.

The Caravan Boss had not been able to keep his mouth from curling up the entire way. Ten gold coins were equivalent to hiring an extraordinary magical beast, one that even controlled flames! Against such a magical beast, even three or five Great Knights would have to kneel.

Hiring it for ten gold coins was simply too good a deal.

"Sir, come and have a taste. This is a wild deer we just caught on the road. The meat on the loin is the most tender. Try it and see how our caravan cook's skills are."

The caravan brought three cooks, and the one with the best culinary skills was directly assigned as Nie Yu's exclusive chef. The Caravan Boss even specifically arranged for guards to hunt fresh game.

Regarding all this, the guards had no complaints at all; in fact, they were overjoyed. Being able to serve such a big shot was enough for them to brag about for half their lives. And it wasn't just about bragging; traveling with such a big shot also had benefits for their future. Among similar guards, mentioning such an experience would put them a cut above the rest, naturally making it easier to get jobs.

Nie Yu was also not polite; he took the roasted meat from the plate and praised, "Not bad, it's not inferior to what I've eaten in many of the best restaurants in the towns."

"Hehe, that's right. Charles was once a chef in the Royal Capital, and it took me a great deal of effort to poach him."

Old man Charles humbly replied, "Not at all, I was just an ordinary cook at a second-rate restaurant."

The Caravan Boss was full of curiosity about the young man before him, even wondering if he might be a traveling mage. After all, rumors about mages were not scarce, and having traveled north and south and visited several kingdoms, he knew a thing or two: "My lord, may I ask where you are from?"

"I came from the east, traveling around to see the scenery of different countries."

Seeing the other party had black hair and black eyes and was from the east, the Caravan Boss suddenly realized and understood where the other party was from: "So, my lord is from the Shenzhou Kingdom."

Speaking of the Shenzhou Kingdom, his eyes were filled with longing. No merchant would not want to go to a powerful nation, especially the Shenzhou Kingdom, which was rumored to have gold everywhere.

As for the origins of the Shenzhou Kingdom, it was actually a nation established by Mo Qi before his last slumber, located by the eastern sea. As a nation secretly supported by a former head of the Magic Academy, its strength was naturally extraordinary. Coupled with the various knowledge transformations Mo Qi brought from the Holy Heaven Mansion, this nation had become extremely prosperous and wealthy. It was a place that countless merchants longed for; it was said that if you pulled a cartload of goods from there and sold it in other countries, the wealth you gained would be more than you could spend in a lifetime.

Nie Yu smiled silently and did not explain anything.

"Sir, then you must also be a very powerful Knight, right?"

"It's alright. Once, in my country, I single-handedly slew a giant snake magical beast covered in rock and obtained a title."

"A Titled Knight!"
