This time, the target's appearance was the type Kirkel liked.
Young, tender, with fair and soft skin, if one ignored a certain characteristic, he could actually be more beautiful than a girl...
Thinking of the memories of his past side jobs, Kirkel's thoughts gradually became deranged.
Kirkel couldn't wait to grab him and then listen to his angry curses.
He would slowly savor the other party's transformation from a tough guy to a lamb, which would be a very wonderful process.
Kirkel set off with excitement, but before he could catch anyone, some accidents happened along the way.
At first, he just thought the target was a little clever, but after being hit by a contact-detonation magic trap, Kirkel had to admit that this target was far more cunning than he had imagined!
He recalled the information provided by the employer in his mind.
The target was a low-level apprentice without a staff or casting materials. Any magician of this level could be easily knocked down by a farmer with a hoe, as long as they dodged the first magic!
A knight encountering the other party was basically a guaranteed win.
However, the result was beyond Kirkel's expectations.
The twenty-four-man cavalry had now been reduced to sixteen.
One was dead, four were seriously injured, and three had lost their warhorses.
Looking at his dusty and disheveled subordinates, Kirkel licked his lips.
"He really likes this little wildcat more and more."
"Compared to those dead meat with empty eyes, these wildcats that scratch are much more interesting!"
"Those who can ride horses, continue to follow me. The remaining brothers stay here and take care of the wounded."
After saying this, Kirkel waved his riding whip and chased after the traces left by the wheels, stirring up more than a dozen yellow dragons behind him.

The carriage continued forward for several hundred meters and stopped at a high slope.
Getting out of the carriage, Luo Ning threw a gold coin to the hunchbacked coachman. The hunchbacked coachman took it, bit it, and said excitedly, "Thank you, master, thank you, master."
Luo Ning didn't speak, waving his hand to signal the other party to leave quickly.
After the hunchbacked coachman had completely left his perception range, Luo Ning parked the carriage behind the high slope, and then he set up several fossil to mud trigger traps around it.
Magic plus trigger settings were Luo Ning's recent gains. He only needed to add Texture such as "delay," "induction," and "weight measurement" to the original magic Texture, and a blast flame trap with a trigger response was born.
Compared to the previous Modified Fireball, this small modification was not very ingenious. At most, it expanded the way magic was used, so that the battle was no longer rigid and inflexible.
Luo Ning meditated at the ambush point for half a magic hourglass before several staggering figures appeared at the end of the road.
At this time, the white mist had dissipated, and Luo Ning could clearly see the pursuers' disarray.
The originally bright and beautiful full-body armor on their bodies was now damaged beyond recognition.
The breastplate engraved with complex patterns was full of traces of elemental magic abuse. The most common were the scorch marks after the explosion of fireball and the scars after the Wind Blade cut.
Several figures supported each other as they walked forward. Luo Ning, hiding in the treetops, could clearly hear their conversation.
"Brothers, hold on a little longer, we'll catch up with the target soon."
"Commander, kelson's condition is very bad, he needs treatment!"
"Thirty-two magics, this guy's guardian magician must be out of magic. Let's hold on for a while, and the golden coins will be in our hands soon."
"Commander, kelson has fainted."
"Victory must belong to me. This little wildcat can't escape. I must display art on you hundreds of times!"
Listening to the almost crazy roar under his feet, a look of disgust flashed in Luo Ning's eyes. He reached out and pointed at the knight who was shouting the loudest, and the magic power in his body began to surge.
Kirkel was indeed a Peak Apprentice Knight, and his ability to sense danger was very sensitive. The moment the Wind Blade released by Luo Ning was formed, he pounced down the slope on the side of the road.
"Ground support followed by a roll and side flip."
After Kirkel used a textbook-like dodging action, the Wind Blade swept past a bewildered knight, leaving a mess on the ground.
Kirkel climbed up from the grass, and he quickly aimed his gaze at the location where the magic fluctuation occurred, but all he saw was the swaying treetops. The magician who used Wind Blade to kill his subordinates had disappeared without a trace.
"You can't protect this kid. You don't have much magic power left. How many more batches of people can you kill, one batch? Or two batches?"
Kirkel didn't look like prey at all. He told the enemy that there were pursuers behind him!
Doing so was to make the other party hesitate. If the magician on the other side was really as he said, his magic power was about to run out, then the other party would definitely not want to waste time on a Peak Apprentice Knight.
Although killing himself was not difficult, wasting magic power in this way was undoubtedly very stupid in the presence of pursuers.
Kirkel thought he had Luo Ning under control, but who knew that what was greeting him was a blue-white fireball emitting terrifying high temperatures!
"Spinning, jumping, and lunging forward." Kirkel dodged the fireball at the last moment.
But before he could feel fortunate, a shadow quickly magnified in his eyes!
After Modified Fireball, Luo Ning released a more concealed Ejection Skill magic.
The advantage of this magic is that the spellcasting fluctuation is very small, and the disadvantage is that the lethality is not enough.
Kirkel would not be afraid of such magic at all in normal times, but the magician on the other side connected the magic too perfectly.
This magic just happened to be stuck at the moment when Kirkel's strength was exhausted after dodging!
Can't dodge it!
Kirkel was a decisive person, and he raised his hands to block in front of him.
With the protection of the fine iron bracers, he should at least be able to defend against this magic attack.
Kirkel thought so, but he soon realized how wrong he was.
Bang--
Ah, ah, ah, ah!
The sound of metal clashing was accompanied by Kirkel's uncontrollable screams.
Kirkel underestimated Luo Ning's Ejection Skill magic. His left arm exploded from the forearm, and now only a little bit of skin was connecting it. The severed palm drooped in front of him, shaking with Kirkel's wailing.
"Why!"
"Why is the power so great!!!"
"It's clearly just a low-level earth elemental apprentice magic, why can it break my hand wearing a fine iron arm guard!!!!"
Kirkel let out a shrill roar. He couldn't understand why the power of Ejection Skill was so great. It was clear that when other magicians cast it, the power was only about the same as an arrow, but in the hands of this magician, it exerted the power of a bed crossbow.
And then, the magic power was terrifying, but the fighting style was extremely rational.
Kirkel had never encountered such a magician!
A magician who showed "insidiousness and rationality" to the fullest.
From beginning to end, he never saw the other party's figure.
Kirkel felt that he was not fighting a magician, but an assassin hiding in the shadows.
In addition, the other party was more rational than an assassin!
Those guys in the shadows would have started talking nonsense as soon as they saw the enemy's hand was broken.
And this magician, even though both of his arms were broken and he was no longer a threat, he still refused to show up!
Damn magician!
Luo Ning's performance was simply calm and rational to the extreme, which was also the point that Kirkel really couldn't accept. Kirkel was not afraid of how powerful the enemy was, but he was most afraid of the enemy being calm enough.
A calm enemy is often the most difficult to defeat.
