Being Blind For Five Years, All My Disciples Became Forbidden Curse Mages - Chapter 101

101 Never Fight Head-on

Fang Ping walked over and raised his hand, preparing to touch the tower.

There was a thin layer of ice crystals on the black surface. Fang Ping was still a little nervous.

Would he unlock the map fragment and find a miracle? Would he become a supreme-ruler in one step and marry a fair, rich, and beautiful woman to reach the peak of his life?

Thinking about it, he was a little excited.

!!
He placed his hand on the black tower. The texture of the tower was a little rough, and the patterns were very faint. In the cold snowy moon, there was a hint of coldness.

‘And?’

‘Nothing else?’

Fang Ping sighed. Alright, this stone pillar had been here for so long. If there was really anything, it would have been discovered by others long ago. It would not have been his turn.

He was thinking too much.

He would pretend that nothing had happened.

The team continued forward. In the coniferous forest, they could see similar black stone pillars from time to time. Some stood under the sunlight with a majestic aura.

Some of the stone pillars had already broken, leaving only half of them. The other half lay on the ground, covered in fallen leaves and snow.

Someone tried to cut the stone pillar. It was abnormally hard. The long sword cut a hole, and there was no trace on the stone pillar.

“It’s so hard. If it’s made into a weapon, it should be quite powerful,” Fang Ping muttered softly as he watched.

Qing Niao beside him said, “This is so hard. It must be very difficult to grind it into a weapon. Moreover, it doesn’t have any characteristics or soul fragments. It probably isn’t that powerful.”

“That’s true.” Fang Ping had forgotten that in this world, material was not the main point. Characteristics were the key.

The fact that the Elemental Set was warmer than a thick coat was enough to explain the problem.

The Lord’s Guards in front stopped again. It was almost lunchtime. Should they stop to eat, or did something happen?

“Characteristics failed. Target: Gnome Road Tyrant, not him.”

The special characteristic was a good thing. As expected, something had happened again.

Fang Ping also realized that the notification would only be given when the target had a Human name. Otherwise, the feedback would only be about race and profession.

At this moment, Elsa looked over. Fang Ping pointed ahead and said, “There are Gnomes ahead.”

“Everyone, be on guard. Fang Ping will command.”

He could only tell that there were enemies in front of him, but he still had to see the exact situation himself.

“Stay where you are.”

Fang Ping walked toward the Lord’s Guards.

Not long after, the trees became sparse and the black stone pillars became dense. Many stone pillars fell to the ground, forming a complicated environment.

Behind the stone pillars, the figures of Gnomes could be seen. From time to time, cold arrows from Gnome Archers would fly out.

The Lord’s Guards relied on the carriage and raised their shields to defend.

Such terrain was not conducive to cavalry charging, and it was extremely restrictive.

This was also a battlefield that the Elite Team could not interfere in.

Fang Ping brought the Elite Team over and watched from afar.

The tall and low stone pillars were stacked together, forming a small terrain similar to street battles. The hard stone pillars could not be broken through by force, which caused a lot of trouble for the Lord’s Guards.

However, the Lord’s Guards had a way.

The cavalry turned into infantry and formed a team of four or five people. They entered the ruins of the stone pillars and found these cunning enemies and killed them one by one.

However, Gnomes were not to be trifled with.

High-level Gnomes were not ordinary Gnomes who only knew how to howl. They were proficient in the survival of short people. They passed through the small gaps in the ruins of the stone pillars and retreated with a single strike. They would not fight head-on.

From time to time, some Warriors were injured and carried out, but the Goblins were also gradually retreating.

Fang Ping still remembered what Werner had told Teacher Elsa just now. Their mission was to stop the people heading to the Fire Dragon Frontier Fortress, but they still had to let them pass.

Therefore, the Gnomes in the distance clearly did not want to continue fighting. They retreated as they fought.

Even though the Gnomes had the advantage in terms of terrain, they quickly retreated out of the ruins of the stone pillar and into the coniferous forest.

“Stop the pursuit and clean up the battlefield.”

The Lord’s Guards did not pursue further and retreated.

Fang Ping turned around and shouted at the Elite Team, “Remove the alert.”

Although he didn’t do anything and just watched the show from afar, he still had to put on a show.

He found a tree and sat against it. It was time for lunch now. He looked at the Lord’s Guards not far away. Some of them were injured and were being bandaged, but no one seemed to have died.

“Do you want to try?”

Fang Ping was munching on the yellow melon pancake when he suddenly heard someone speak.

It was Lisa, bending down and handing something over.

Fang Ping took it. It was a vegetable or fruit that looked like a cucumber. After walking for so many days and in the snow, there were very few vegetables to eat.

“Thank you.”

Lisa took the opportunity to sit at the side and took out a yellow melon pancake.

Fang Ping saw her suddenly run over and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“Try it. Green melon is quite delicious. It can speed up the accumulation of energy. However, the effect is much weaker now.”

Fang Ping put down the green melon. Since Lisa had said so, something must have happened.

Lisa was a close-combat Mage who had defeated Andre. She was not the kind of person who would be shy when faced with trouble.

“What exactly happened?”

Lisa also put down the pancake in her hand and picked up the pure white long-handled staff beside her. She pointed at the blue sky that was divided into small pieces by the leaves.

“Fang Ping, how does it feel to have a good characteristic?”

“It depends…”

Before Fang Ping could finish speaking, he saw a white light fly out from the top of Lisa’s staff. It rushed out of the treetop in an instant and disappeared into the sky.

The surrounding people looked over.

Fang Ping looked at Lisa. What did she mean?

Lisa put down her staff and sighed. “The characteristic, First Time. When you attack for the first time every day, your strength increases by four points and your range increases by a hundred meters.”

“Huh? You just awakened?”

Lisa shot a glance at Fang Ping. She picked up her staff and was about to stand up when Fang Ping quickly pulled her back. “I really don’t know. I thought that awakening was an easy thing for you guys.”

Lisa straightened her clothes and sat down again.

Fang Ping thought about what Lisa had just said. The First Time, the name of this characteristic was quite special.

“It sounds like this characteristic is not bad. Your close combat ability is very strong to begin with. This characteristic also adds a long-range attack method to you.”

“Have you forgotten that I’m a Mage?”

‘Um…’

Only after she said that did Fang Ping realize that Lisa had always been the top fighter in the Melee sequence. He had forgotten that she was a Mage.

What other long-range attacks did a Mage lack?

Then this characteristic seems quite useless.

“But didn’t they say that if the first characteristic is weaker, it’s easier to awaken the second characteristic?”

“Not for sure, I can only hope.”

Qing Niao walked over and nodded at Lisa before sitting beside her.

Fang Ping pointed at Qing Niao beside him. “Special characteristics still need to be coordinated. Look at Qing Niao. With this weapon, his strength has more than doubled.”

“Then how do you think I should match it?”

“What are you guys talking about? What’s wrong?” Qing Niao looked at Fang Ping and Lisa, not knowing what they were talking about.

Fang Ping did not respond to Qing Niao. He shook his head at Lisa. “I don’t know either. You can use it for a while.”
