Ron instantly had the urge to kill. “Is this Balu?” he asked, looking at everyone.
Clearly, Orville had sensed Ron’s anger, and he shuddered involuntarily. “Yes, his name is indeed Balu, but I wonder if he’s the person you’re looking for.”
“Is he from the Holy Light City?” Ron asked again.
“I think so. I think I’ve heard of it before,” Orville replied quickly, afraid he would provoke Ron.
“Do any of you know more about him? He’s someone I had been looking for a long time.” Ron had no choice but to place his hopes on the other Magi.
This team had only been temporarily formed, so most of the Magi had not seen him before, and everyone was naturally not familiar.
Just as everyone was looking at each other, the man at the peak of the Innate Realm, who had stopped them in the beginning, walked forward. “Young Master, I’m quite familiar with this Balu person you’re talking about. He grew up here from a young age, but I can be sure that his ancestors were indeed from the Holy Light City.”
Ron heard the answer and was basically certain. But the person was gone now, and there was no use anymore. “Do you know if his parents or any of his other siblings are still around?”
“His parents seem to have died more than ten years ago in a small Beast Tide Rebellion. He does not have any other siblings,” this man took a look at Balu’s corpse, feeling sorry for him, as he spoke.
He also knew that it was precisely because of his parents’ death that Balu ignored everyone’s objections and resolutely joined the team to encircle the demon beasts. He had not expected himself to die here.
Ron did not know what to say. Should he bring the corpse back? He had not expected the person he had been searching for so many days to die just when he was about to find him.
At the same time, Ron fell into endless self-blame. If he had come a little earlier, he might have been able to save Balu’s life, and the Nicholas family would have another member.
As Ron’s guilt deepened, the murderous intent within him became increasingly obvious. The Magi and also Orville were all trembling in fear by the side. They were afraid that Ron would kill them all because of one wrong word from them.
During this period, they could only rely on their eyes to communicate. The tall and powerful man used his gaze to signal to Orville to ask what they should do. Orville could only shake his head helplessly, indicating that he did not know either.
After all, from the group, only Orville and Ron knew each other before this. Orville had no choice but to be bold and ask, “Young Master, what’s your relationship with Balu?”
Clearly, Ron was not in the mood to chat. Instead, he looked toward the center of the Black Forest. “You guys go back first. Be careful on the way. There shouldn’t be any demon beasts.”
As soon as Ron had finished speaking, everyone could sense the earth trembling and the roars of demon beasts. The sounds were getting louder and louder, and the demon beasts seemed to be getting closer and closer to them.
“A large number of demon beasts have already run here. The Beast Tide Rebellion has come, it’s coming,” a timid Mage shouted.
However, no one had expected the reality of the situation to be much more serious than what they got from their intelligence reports. It was not an ordinary demon beast outbreak, but a Beast Tide Rebellion.
“Let’s go.” The man in the lead also understood what Ron meant. Ron wanted to finish off these demon beasts personally, and he also believed that Ron was completely capable of doing so.
The other Magi quickly walked to the side of the leader and expressed their gratitude to Ron together. “Thank you for saving our lives, Senior.”
After all, they knew that with their strength, if Ron had not appeared, they would not have been able to survive until now.
Although Ron looked much younger than them, there was a rule in the Mage world: strangers had to respect each other according to the level of magical power, so they had addressed Ron as Senior.
“You guys get going.” Ron gradually walked deeper into the forest.
“Senior, you have to be careful. We’ll wait for you in Hardy County,” Orville said to Ron in parting.
Orville and the others had not walked more than a few meters when they heard the tree in front of Ron suddenly fall. A level-4 demon beast was charging toward Ron like a heavy tank.
Ron immediately gathered all the energy in his body and punched the demon beast just as it was about to hit him.
With a bang, the demon beast was instantly sent flying more than ten meters away, the skin on its body started to crack, and it knocked down many of the demon beasts behind it.
Then, Ron took out his Dragon Flame Flying Sword and killed the demon beasts in front of him one after another under the glow of the red light.
Although he was not completely sure if that person was the one he had been looking for, Ron was ready to vent all his anger on these demon beasts.
At the same time, in the ancestral hall of the Nicholas family, Romo looked at Ron’s situation through the Visitation Talisman and signed heavily. If the dead Mage was really a descendant of the Nicholas family, it would be a great pity.
Romo did not blame Ron. After all, it could be seen that he had tried his best during this period of time. Moreover, such a Beast Tide Rebellion was a piece of cake for Ron. Helping them deal with the demon beasts would also benefit the citizens.
In the sky above the Black Forest, Ron and the Dragon Flame Flying Sword had killed all the demon beasts approaching them. Along the way, he had also helped many teams of Magi that had been ensnared by the demon beasts. They were all in awe of this Mage of the Divine Power Realm who came and left swiftly.
The Magi in the periphery were basically all of the Physical Body Realm and the Innate Realm. After all, Magi of such levels could only deal with low-level demon beasts. The remaining Magi of higher levels were all basically concentrated in the central area.
Ron flew all the way into the depths of the Black Forest. Although he had already vented all his anger, he could not sit back and do nothing when he saw the Magi besieged by the demon beasts. He treated all this as going through training.
After dealing with these demon beasts, he would then look for clues on the Nicholas family clan. If there were really none, he would have to return empty-handed.
Suddenly, Ron sensed that a large number of level-5 and 6 demon beasts were emerging in front of him. He was about to go and take a look when he suddenly sensed something unusual in his body.
“What’s going on?” Ron quickly calmed himself down to sense it, and then he looked to his right. In that instant, Ron suddenly felt the abnormality in his bloodline sensing.
This meant that the descendant of the Nicholas family clan might not have died, but was someone else.
