With a bang, the poisonous tail hit the air shield again.
Seeing that the wind shield in front of them was still intact, the two of them did not think too much about it but the Twin-Tailed Poison Scorpion was even more furious.
His green poisonous tail struck the wind shield even faster, trying to break it.
Naturally, Lorne would not let him have his way. A wind blade hit the Poison-Tailed Scorpion.
Then, the Poison-Tailed Scorpion was sent flying. Lorne also revealed his head and the three of them turned to look at the youth in front of them.
His high nose bridge and delicate face gave people a kind feeling. Was it this young mage who saved them?
Just as everyone was guessing Lorne's strength, Lorne smiled and said, "This Poisonous Scorpion's defense is quite strong. I didn't expect it to be able to block my wind blades."
As he spoke, Lorne shot another wind blade at the tail of the two-tailed poisonous scorpion.
If one of the scorpions' tails was cut by a knife, it would immediately fall to the ground.
Seeing its tail cut off just like that, the Twin-Tailed Poison Scorpion felt threatened and began to reveal a timid expression.
Step by step, he retreated. Then, another wind blade came at him. In a short while, the originally complete Two-Tailed Poisonous Scorpion turned into pieces of meat.
Apart from its tail, there was nothing else on the double-tailed poisonous scorpion that was intact. Seeing Lorne so violent.
The three of them were shocked. Who would have thought that this handsome boy would be so violent?
"Hello!" Lorne greeted them with a smile.
They smiled when they saw Lorne greeting his mom. "Hi."
This was the first time that Lorne had interacted with anyone other than mages apart from the people from the Magic Academy.
Judging from their attire, the blonde beauty and the fleeing young man should be swordsmen, while the middle-aged man was obviously a Great Swordsman.
He removed his sword from the Poisonous Scorpion's body and kicked the corpse a few more times. He cursed, "F*ck, if it wasn't for the fact that I just got into a fight and didn't have time to rest, it wouldn't be your turn to be arrogant!"
With that said, he walked towards Lorne with the sword in his arms and introduced, "Dear Mr. Mage, thank you for your generous help…"
Hearing the middle-aged man's thanks, Lorne waved his hand indifferently. "You're welcome. It's nothing."
He reached out and stored the Twin-Tailed Poison Scorpion's tail into his interspatial ring before introducing himself with a smile, "You can just call me Lorne. By the way, why are you being chased by the Twin-Tailed Poison Scorpion?"
The middle-aged man did not expect the young and powerful mage in front of him to be so approachable. It should be known that genius-level mages like them were usually very arrogant.
In the past, he had seen a talented mage whose robe was dirtied by a swordsman. Although the swordsman apologized, the mage still did not let the swordsman off.
A casual wind blade cut off that swordsman's arm. This scene shocked him quite a bit, so he had always been very respectful to mages.
The frightened middle-aged man thanked them sincerely before introducing the three of them to Lorne.
The middle-aged man was called Blumer Eddard, an adventurer from Sunset City.
The golden-haired beauty beside him was his daughter, Irvine Aid. She was also an adventurer.
As for the swordsman who looked like he came from a good family, Blumer was somewhat perfunctory when he introduced him. He said that his name was Durkelen and that he was an enthusiastic swordsman he had met on the way.
From the look in his eyes, it could be seen that Blumer really hated this youth in front of him but he didn't show it. There must be a reason why he couldn't chase Durkelon away.
After hearing Blumer's introduction, Lorne laughed in his heart. What kind of enthusiastic swordsman is this? He wants to woo your daughter, right? Otherwise, who would come to the Sunset Mountains for no reason?
This place was so dangerous that they could lose their lives at any moment. More importantly, ever since they were safe.
This swordsman's eyes had been staring at Irvine and he didn't seem embarrassed at all.
"Mr. Mage, we don't know why we're being hunted by a Twin-Tailed Poisonous Scorpion. We're here to hunt a Gale Wolf because it's a pack animal. We finally found a lone Gale Wolf and just killed him."
And then, a hint of a bitter smile appeared on Blumer's face. "But just as we were about to go retrieve the corpse of the Gale Wolf, this Twin-Tailed Venomous Scorpion came running to attack us. More importantly, it was still chasing us in a group. We felt that something was off."
"In order to fight against the Two-Tailed Poisonous Scorpion, I accidentally got injured. Durkelon had no choice but to bring us out of the forest. We were lucky to meet you in the end. Otherwise, we really wouldn't know what to do."
"How unfortunate." Lorne looked regretful but he turned to look at Durkelon.
Lorne sensed a familiar scent from him and walked over.
Seeing Lorne walking towards him, Durkelon tightened his clothes and said arrogantly, "What are you doing?"
Seeing that Lorne was closing in on him step by step, Durkelon could no longer maintain his arrogant posture. He took a few steps back.
Then, he said timidly, "What are you going to do? Let me tell you, I'm a youth from the Koren family. If you dare touch me, I'll make sure you suffer the consequences when we get to Sunset City!"
Lorne showed no fear in the face of Durkelon's threat. He took a green egg from Durkelon.
When they saw the item that Lorne took out, the three of their expressions changed. This was because the egg that Lorne took out was the double-tailed poisonous scorpion.
No wonder the Twin-Tailed Poisonous Scorpion would chase after the three of them. It turned out that he was the one behind it. Seeing this scene, Irvine was furious.
"So it's you! If it wasn't for you, my father wouldn't have been injured and we could have returned safely!"
In the face of Irvine's anger, Durkelen quickly waved his hand and said, "Irvine, listen to me. It's not what you think."
"What's there to explain when there's concrete evidence? If it wasn't for you, would my father and I have almost died? It wasn't a difficult task to begin with. Because of your selfishness, we lost so much!"
After venting her anger, Irvine knew that this Durkelon was actually such a despicable person. She originally had some admiration for the young master's willingness to be an adventurer.
However, from the looks of it, he was just a selfish person. Durkelon wanted to explain himself but in front of the evidence, all explanations were useless.
Durkelon could only glare fiercely at Lorne before he stepped aside. Lorne shrugged nonchalantly.
He wasn't afraid of Durkelon. After all, he was a student of the academy. If Durkelon dared to attack him, it would be equivalent to attacking the entire magic academy.
This was his backing, unless he found someone stronger than Lorne from the Magic Academy. However, Lorne only needed to release his mentor's name.
He believed that his opponent would think twice. His teacher had helped many students before.
