Chapter 336 The End of the Battle for the Weed (2)


    Meanwhile, inside the Mazzanti family building...


    After entering this building, Nova''s group and the two Symons family guards had no trouble getting inside when the Mazzanti family members ran out of ammunition.


    The family soldiers knew they could do nothing against the level 5 Acolytes and simply gave way, knowing they would only increase the family''s losses if they tried to fight.


    On the other hand, the five invaders weren''t interested in increasing their forces'' enmity with the Mazzanti family as much as possible. They were there for the 3rd-stage herb. When they entered this property, they made their way to the lowest level of the area, where the family''s training room was located.


    Just as they were about to invade the ce where Liam had been meditating for the past few hours, the young alchemist reached the peak of the absorption of his new pentagram and finally came to the end of his meditation.


    Seconds before the enemies entered where he was, Liam opened his eyes. He felt invigorated, noticing many changes in his being, physical improvements, mana improvements, etc.


    Full of energy, he stood up and immediately transferred his power to his Magic Gem, determined to test his situation before the enemies attacked.


    Red Lotus!


    An utterly red lotus flower formed in front of him, condensing the powers of his first and second pentagrams in a single instant.


    As he threw it towards the main door of the training room, Liam ran in the opposite direction, through the side exit.


    At that moment, the five enemies arrived at the Mazzanti family''s training room just as the lotus flower inside reached its peak concentration of red mes.


    "Fuck!" One of the Symons family guards saw Liam running, but also the attack from a level 2 Acolyte, something that wouldn''t be so threatening in other situations but was now.


    These five had survived the many shots from the Mazzanti family soldiers and the remaining attacks from the Mages'' battle. Even though they hadn''t been actively fighting, they had used up much of their strength earlier and were now close to exhaustion.


    The only advantage they had over Rory, for example, was that they weren''t injured.


    However, they had consumed about the same amount of mana as the young man. Seeing the red lotus blossom about to explode right in front of them, they all narrowed their eyes with a bit of anger and fear of the enemy''s reaction.


    ''My body is a sword!'' Nova immediately used her skills to raise her defenses, and in an instant, a sword aura appeared around her entire body.


    As the others did simr things with their powers, the lotus flower reached its critical point and exploded.


    Booooooooom!


    All five soldiers saw a massive glow in front of them before red mes covered almost the entire training ground.


    Almost simultaneously, Liam escaped through the side exits of the area.


    Some of the most exhausted and unprotected of these five felt the explosion throw their bodies backward. In contrast, others held their positions but expressed pain as they suffered from the high temperature of the enemy mes.


    Liam had an extraordinary magical form that gave him a lot of attack power. He wasn''t particrly good at fighting, but he could hurt even those stronger than him if he had enough time to prepare for a big attack.


    Since his enemies were weaker than usual, his attack before he escaped managed to wound some of them, giving him time to escape!


    ''Tsk! Liam Young''s Lotus me is really good!'' Nova felt part of her hair burn, but she was one of the three people who felt the least from the enemy attack.


    Unfortunately, she had to stand still until the worst of the mes had passed, long enough for her to lose sight of Liam.


    ...


    Meanwhile, Liam had quickly run out of the Mazzanti family building, arriving just in time for thest moment of the sh of the strongest men there.


    "Surrender, Mazzanti family representative. I''m willing to leave if you give up the herb!" Said Viscount Symons, rather tired but visibly the least worse off for the moment.


    Upon hearing this and seeing the situation of the people in his group, Liam froze in one of the side exits of the estate he was in, fearing what would happen now.


    A second after the Viscount''s words, this man and all the others who had fought there looked at Liam, seeing the young source of the fragrance of the 3rd-stage herb.


    His master didn''t hesitate to move to his student''s side when he saw him there.


    "Hand over the 3rd-stage herb. We''ll put an end to this as soon as you do it." Commander Hogan said as he pulled Rory and Benson out of his sight and did the same to Viscount Symons.


    Liam''s master then said just so his pupil could hear. "Do what they want. You''ve already absorbed the pentagram from the herb. Keeping its body will only bring you trouble.


    It was its value. But it''s only valuable if you''re alive to enjoy it!" He said between his teeth as he looked at the two Mages.


    Liam''s master had only acted to allow his student to finish absorbing his second pentagram. Now that everything was over, he had no reason to continue challenging these two Mages!


    He wanted the 3rd-stage herb, but his situation was the same as his disciple''s. He didn''t have the power to get it. He didn''t have the strength and might die if he stood in the way of those two. In that case, the best thing to do was to give up!


    "Liam, give it up. If not for yourself, then for your friends in the Mazzanti family."


    He looked to the side where Rory and Bart were, both in pretty bad shape and not far from the point where they could die with one blow.


    Liam saw Rory but also the basilisk. ''Vicente left to distract the enemies and may never return... I hope hees back in one piece, but I have to consider that he might already be dead, and we''re alone. If that''s the case, I can''t make the mistake of insulting an army Commander and a Viscount simultaneously.''


    He then summoned the lifeless body of the 3rd-stage herb from his ring and threw it at the Viscount.


    The two Mages looked at it, and their eyes lit up. This was all they wanted!


    With that small herb, the two could get close to the Mid-level of the 3rd stage!


    "Hahaha, kid, you made the right decision." The Viscount said as he looked at Christopher. "Today, we finish this fight here. We''ll see what happens in the next few days."


    "Hmm, let''s go." Commander Hogan agreed, and in the blink of an eye, he was off beside the Viscount, eager for his share of the weed.


    Just then, Nova arrived at the Mazzanti estate to witness the end of the whole incident.
