Chapter 55: You Deceive Me and I Cheat You

  Thank you to Flower World and Three Wives and Four Concubines Children's Shoes for their second reward, so I'll add more updates. Also, I wish everyone a happy new year with smiles, high salaries, plenty of money, no worries or sorrows, joy all the way, good life, everything going smoothly, and carefree!

  Wu Lingfeng and his group advanced again, encountering a group of goblins. Five goblins gathered together, shouting loudly as they charged towards Wu Lingfeng. Four of the goblins held wooden clubs with wooden spikes, while one goblin carried a basket of stones on its back, hiding behind the goblins with clubs and throwing stones at Wu Lingfeng's group.

  "Drink......ah......"

  Loli's doll-like figure flashed out, let out a delicate cry, and a large amount of icy air condensed in her hands...

  In an instant, several huge ice crystal walls condensed around the five goblins, freezing them inside. Due to the difference in level, the five goblins instantly turned into ice blocks.

  "Intermediate magic skills!!!" Bridget and the red-haired old man exclaimed in surprise, what they didn't expect was that Wu Lingfeng's magical puppet could actually cast intermediate-level magic instantly!

  It's not actually instant, the Lolita has a one-second gathering magic time, and for a magician, one second is fundamentally not enough to chant a complete spell, so it was treated as an instant spell.

  In this world, although there is a saying of instant magic, gathering magic also requires some time. This time should be much shorter than the time it takes to chant spells, so it's called instant, which is the current state of the loli doll, with a one-second magic gathering time.

  The red-haired old man looked at the Lolita doll, and a glimmer of greed flashed in his eyes. This kind of Lolita doll, not to mention its ability to cast mid-level magic instantly, just its appearance that was indistinguishable from a normal person was enough to drive everyone crazy. It's not an exaggeration to call it a work of art! Only the world's top alchemists could create such a realistic doll!

  "Little brother, where did you get this magical puppet?" The red-haired old man asked Wulinfeng kindly.

  Wu Lingfeng furrowed his brow and turned his head, looking at the only mage in this group. Earlier, Xue Li had told him that this red-haired old man was a mage, and he was the only one Wu Lingfeng was wary of. This was an existence he couldn't deal with, even if he used sneak attacks, he still couldn't defeat him!

  "Is there something? Master Devil... " Wu Lingfeng said calmly.

  The old man with red hair showed a smile and said, "Don't be so distant, we're all mages. You're only 15 or 16 now, at this age you should be an intermediate mage. Your family's bloodline must be quite extraordinary, who was your ancestor? Maybe I'll know them..."

  "My family is all dead, only I'm left. You won't be able to meet them now. If there's nothing else, let's continue on our journey..."

  The red-haired old man didn't move, and continued to say: "Hmm, don't be in a hurry, your magical puppet is really great, it's too mysterious, hehe, I've never seen one before either. Whose masterpiece is this? Can you introduce me?"

  Wu Lingfeng curled his lip and said: "This is something I made myself, what's wrong with it? I'm not a master..."

  "It's impossible!!"

  The red-haired old man and Bridget exclaimed at the same time, absolutely impossible, that this magical puppet was made by a teenager, are you kidding me?

  Winnie hugged Wu Lingfeng's arm and said, "Onii-chan is a descendant of the gods, with a bloodline that has inherited alchemy, isn't it amazing..."

  Bloodline of the Gods!!!! Inheriting Alchemy!!!!!

  In an instant, not only the red-haired old man and Bridget, but almost all adventurers were surprised to look at Wu Lingfeng. There was actually a divine bloodline that was no less than the existence of the Frost Giant Dragon.

  "Inheriting alchemy, is it really like this? It's truly shocking..." The red-haired old man narrowed his turbid eyes, a hint of sharpness flashing through, he was already thinking of using alchemy to extract the bloodline power from Wu Lingfeng's body. If he could extract the divine bloodline power, he would absolutely be able to reach the level of a law god in his lifetime, what a huge temptation.

  Bridget was also astonished. The bloodline on her body was only a demigod's bloodline, and a demigod referred to those who had failed to advance to godhood but hadn't died either.

  In this world, to become a god, one must go to the Altar of God and undergo trials. If successful, they can become a god; if not, they will die. However, there are some special exceptions where individuals have failed to ascend but still live on, possessing divine power that is not complete, hence being called demigods.

  Helena became somewhat guarded, clearly aware of the red-haired old man's ill intentions, and pulled Winnie down, signaling her not to say anything more. The divine bloodline had given many people improper thoughts.

  Winnie looked at the heavy atmosphere on site and also realized that she had said something she shouldn't have, and couldn't help but lower her little head in fear.

  "Shall we go?" Bridget said, breaking the awkward scene.

  Everyone continued, but Wu Lingfeng deliberately became more vigilant against the red-haired old man. At this moment, he had already formed the idea of killing the red-haired old man in his heart. Since he was powerless, he could only rely on external forces.

  Wu Lingfeng took a look at Bridget, if he were to join forces with her, it might be possible, but the question was whether she would be willing to help, and if he himself could offer enough chips in exchange for her assistance. Would she be willing to help?

  However, apart from Bridget, Wu Linfeng also had another idea, that was the Frost Giant. If he were to take advantage of the battle and launch a sneak attack on the red-haired old man, would it be successful? It's possible. In any case, from now on, the red-haired old man had already become his sworn enemy.

  The red-haired old man also had his own thoughts, he wanted to sneak up on Wu Lingfeng after killing the Frost Dragon, after all, there was a Demon Hunter and a Golden Knight by his side, if they faced each other head-on it might take some time, but if he snuck up on him, he could succeed with one hit.

  Bridget was somewhat interested in Wu Lingfeng, and she also knew that the red-haired old man would be unfavorable to Wu Lingfeng. So she was thinking whether she should help or not. If she could get that magical doll from Wu Lingfeng's hands, it wouldn't be bad either. He should give her some reward for helping him, and if he joined the strongest academy, he would be her junior brother. It was only right for a senior sister to help her junior brother, wasn't it?

  The red-haired old man didn't make a move now because he was wary of Bridget, after all, she had considerable strength herself and her mount, the unicorn, was equivalent to that of a magic user, posing a hidden threat. So for now, he couldn't make a move, it would be better to wait until after killing the Frost Dragon, at which time Bridget's combat power would definitely decrease. He would snatch the dragon egg, ambush Wu Lin Feng and immediately flee, if the magic user wanted to leave, no one could stop him.

  Xue Li also felt a little fortunate, if she had borrowed the magic teacher's hand to kill Wu Lingfeng, she would have been freed at that time too, it was really heaven's will, and soon she could be free...

  Everyone has their own opinions, but in the end, it's hard to say whether magic or Taoism is superior. Time will tell.
