Genius Summoner

Chapter 385: Little Fire, Crisis (1)

Kasa stammered and bit her lips, not saying anything else. Each of the four empires took up a corner. Their contestants all gathered and seemed to have decided that it was better to wait and observe than to aimlessly wander. Here, they could see other people’s actions clearly, and adopt corresponding strategies.

At the exit of the maze, the royal members of the four empires, who had waited for almost two months, knew the situation very well. The contestants who quit had already left safely. According to the rules, the Karan Empire had a slim edge. Although Kai didn’t show anything, he was quite proud in his heart. Although the Karan Empire only had one more contestant than the others, Yun Feng was still there. How could the Karan Empire not win with a summoner?

The other empires’ royal members weren’t really frustrated. After all, the edge was really slim. Nobody could tell who would be in the lead if the situation changed again. They were almost all optimistic. Zheng Ran asked Bi Xing with a smile, “My old friend, what are you thinking? Are you wondering which country will win, just like I am?”

Bi Xing remained as taciturn and expressionless as before. He was short and slim to begin with. Plus his solemn square face, he was like a cold hard stone. Bi Xing’s lips shivered, but he didn’t say anything in the end.

Zheng Ran smiled, not considering it a big deal. He and Bi Xing were old friends. The Mercenary Union and the Magic Union had been frequently in touch. They were in a subtle relationship. Zheng Ran looked at the exit of the Forsaken Maze. There was one month to go. What would happen in there?

***

Inside the enormous square deep inside the Forsaken Maze, another half month passed in the blink of an eye. In another half month, the international contest would be over. So far, all four empires had been staying still, which was a good thing for Karan. After all, it had an advantage. If it survived the last half month in peace, it would win.

“Your Highness, what do we do? If we don’t do anything…” The Cashya Empire’s contestants couldn’t wait any longer. Carson was sitting against the wall. He had become a lot more sullen during the past half month. As time went by, Carson got more and more enraged. When he looked at the Ovey and Shengyao teams and saw how poised Xiaoxiao and Muqing were, he gnashed his teeth.

“Damn it, what a bunch of phonies!” After yelling at them, brutality flashed in Carson’s eyes. “Don’t bother the other two empires! We have no time to lose!”

“But Your Highness, there isn’t a Magic Beast here…” mumbled a warrior. They all knew a thing or two about Carson’s capabilities. The prince could command Magic Beasts. Although he was not a real summoner, he was still very good.

“Are you blind? Aren’t there two over there?” The female mage who had been following Carson smiled. Everybody looked in the Karan Empire’s direction, and saw Lan Yi and Little Fire by Yun Feng’s side.

“But aren’t they already contracted by a summoner? That’s…”

“They are, but so what? I can still steal it!” Carson put on a wicked smile, and looked between Little Fire and Lan Yi. The Magic Beast which had transformed into a man didn’t seem very strong. That Fire Cloud Wolf seemed better… Carson made up his mind. The Cashya Empire was about to take action.

During the past half month, Yun Feng had carefully observed the square again. It couldn’t have been set up in the depths of the maze for ornamental purposes. There must be something in it. Little Fire and Lan Yi had been checking it too, but didn’t notice anything unusual. Still, they detected a vague pressure, which was the sixth sense of Magic Beasts. Both of them sent their feelings to Yun Feng. Although there was no telling whether or not their sixth sense was trustworthy, Yun Feng became vigilant and felt that something here was uncoordinated.

The next morning, Kasa wanted to have some fresh air, so she rose and intended to take a walk, but Yun Feng stopped her. It was unwise to wander about in moments like this. However, Kasa was not to be refused as a princess. Yun Feng didn’t bother to persuade her, but simply sent Murong Yuntian to accompany her. Hearing that, Kasa was delighted. Though reluctant, Murong Yuntian obeyed Yun Feng’s arrangement. At some point, Yun Feng was already well acknowledged as the leader of the Karan Empire’s team. Even Kasa had acknowledged it.

“Yuntian, why have you been keeping a distance from me?” Kasa asked Murong Yuntian as they walked forward. Murong Yuntian didn’t say anything, and kept his mouth shut. Kasa pushed herself closer to him, but he simply jumped away and kept a distance from Kasa. Kasa turned solemn after seeing that.

“You like Yun Feng?” asked Kasa in a low voice. She lowered her head, preventing anyone from seeing her face. Murong Yuntian didn’t deny it or acknowledge it. He remained silent. Kasa turned around and saw Murong Yuntian’s gentle smile, which stung her eyes.

“Bam!” Two people appeared out of nowhere, and one of them hit Kasa. Murong Yuntian extended his hand and supported Kasa. Then, he immediately withdrew his hand.

“You’ve bumped into someone. Are you not apologizing?” Hearing the voice, Murong Yuntian raised his head, and saw that they were two contestants from the Cashya Empire. The arrogant girl in front of his eyes was the mage of the Cashya Empire.

Kasa lowered her head and didn’t say anything. Murong Yuntian stepped up. “Sorry about that.” Murong Yuntian knew that they were here for trouble and he should try to avoid them. However, the female mage certainly wouldn’t let them go so easily. She gazed at Murong Yuntian.

“Well, aren’t you Princess Kasa of the Karan Empire? Is this handsome man your lover?” said the female mage teasingly. The warrior next to her laughed and said, “I don’t think so. If they were, they wouldn’t be standing so far away from each other.”
