The air was filled with the smell of something burning.
The two ogres, who had seemed extremely dangerous and had driven the Rock Team into a desperate situation, were easily defeated by a single "Lightning Bolt."
The atmosphere became somewhat quiet.
Even Dosari, the Captain, who had been screaming in pain with his ankle broken, fell silent at that moment.
[Discovered third-tier magic "Lightning Bolt." requires basic mage class, level requirement "15-21." current conditions not met...]
The information on the attribute panel appeared before Adam's eyes.
The basic mage class could be converted through "Genius." but the level requirement was clearly not met right now.
"What a pity."
Adam thought to himself.
Noticing the quiet atmosphere around him, Adam could also guess the complex emotions in the hearts of the Rock Team members at this moment.
The ogres that they had struggled to defeat were so easily solved by their own client.
It was hard not to feel complicated about this.
Moreover, being able to use third-tier magic meant that in the ranks of adventurers, one was at least a "Platinum" or even "Mythril" level adventurer.
The Rock Team was still struggling to reach "Gold" level, let alone these higher-ranked adventurers.
After a brief silence.
Adam was the first to break the atmosphere, quickly walking towards Captain Dosari.
Looking at Dosari lying on the ground, his face twisted in pain from the intense agony.
Adam squatted down, seeing that the ogre's hand was still tightly gripping Dosari's ankle: "Captain Dosari, let me help you remove the ogre's hand."
Dosari nodded instinctively, then his face turned slightly red.
He didn't know if it was because Adam forcefully pried open the ogre's hand on his leg, causing pain, or for some other reason.
The ogre's hand, with its rough, dark yellow skin, was pried off by Adam and casually thrown aside. Adam then looked at Dosari's calf.
The entire calf was completely crushed, twisted and hanging limply, with the bones inside obviously shattered, a comminuted fracture was inevitable.
Such an injury, in the previous world, would likely result in disability.
But in this world, although it was somewhat serious, it wasn't a big deal, since even resurrection magic existed.
"Minor Healing!"
Adam extended both hands towards the calf and spoke softly.
A gentle white light enveloped Dosari's calf. Under the effect of the healing magic, the originally flat calf slowly began to swell as if inflated, and the twisted appearance gradually began to be repaired.
The calf, which had just lost sensation, began to feel intense pain again, causing Dosari to gasp, but he still endured without crying out.
As the light dissipated!
The calf, which had been unrecognizable, could now barely be seen as a calf again.
Seeing this, Adam cast "Minor Healing" Once more.
After the second healing spell ended, Dosari's entire calf appeared to have returned to its original state.
"On the surface, it's fine now, but the bones inside are comminuted fractures."
"Two spells can only simply repair it; for complete recovery, it might take a few more casts. Wait until I recover some mana, and I'll heal you further."
Adam let out a breath and said softly.
Along the way, the Rock Team had been quite good to him, so naturally, Adam wouldn't be stingy with help.
Dosari's face was covered in sweat, his lips pale, obviously the pain from the calf's recovery was too intense, "Thank you, Adam."
"No need to be so polite, Captain Dosari." Adam said.
At that moment, Bask, supporting the injured Rand and Lel, also arrived. Seeing the Captain's condition, they breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Adam with gratitude in their eyes.
"Are you two okay?" Adam stood up, looking at the two supported brothers.
"Don't worry, we're not dead yet." Lel grinned, his face as pale as the others, but with no obvious injuries.
However, since he was being supported by Bask, even if there were no external injuries, he probably had some internal injuries. Adam recalled that he had been kicked flying by the other ogre.
"Broke a few ribs." Rand had a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth, "But I'm not dead yet."
"Wait until I recover some mana, and I'll heal you both." Adam nodded.
Rand laughed heartily, "Good."
"Huh?" Bask's ears twitched, and he suddenly turned to look at the ogre lying on the ground with its arm struck by lightning, "It's not completely dead yet?"
As soon as he said this, the faces of the Rock Team members turned cold.
But Adam's eyes lit up, and without waiting for the Rock Team to act, he had already walked to the side of the lying ogre.
With a swing of his short sword, following the wound left by the arrow on the ogre's eye, he fiercely stabbed into its brain and stirred forcefully.
The ogre, which had only a breath left, completely lost its life.
The clean and swift action left the members of the Rock Team somewhat astonished.
Perhaps even Adam himself didn't notice that his actions now unknowingly carried a hint of ruthlessness.
[Gained 300 experience!]
Seeing the information flashing on the attribute panel, Adam's eyes showed a hint of surprise.
So much experience.
It directly allowed Adam to level up, and with the scattered experience he had gained before, his current level had risen to 5.
"Are you all okay?" Nfirea jumped down from the carriage, running over quickly with a face full of worry.
The members of the Rock Team subconsciously looked at each other, their faces showing respect as they looked at Nfirea who had come before them.
"Don't worry, we absolutely won't delay the upcoming journey." Captain Dosari propped himself up with both hands, standing on one foot, and said hurriedly.
"I didn't mean that."
Nfirea's cheeks turned slightly red upon hearing this, waving his arms and shaking his head. Just as he was about to say something else, he suddenly saw the members of the Rock Team looking behind him with reverent expressions on their faces.
"You all should rest first."
Lizzie walked over with her hands behind her back, expressionless.
"Yes, my lady."
Captain Dosari said solemnly, though his single-footed stance looked a bit comical.
A bard capable of using third-tier magic was not someone their small team could afford to offend, especially since she had just saved their lives.
The other three members of the Rock Team lowered their heads with slightly red faces, feeling ashamed as adventurers who had been saved by their client.
Little did they know that someone with such strength would hire an adventurer team for escort; perhaps from the beginning, she only intended to hire laborers.
Lizzie ignored the Rock Team and looked towards the direction where the goblins and ogres had appeared earlier.
That area belonged to the southern part of the Azerlisia Mountains, the Great Forest of Tob, which was not only vast but also extremely dangerous. E-Rantel was located right next to this forest.
"It seems it's time to clear out the monsters again." Lizzie murmured to herself.
Goblins were a type of monster with a very fast reproduction rate, and together with the wild beasts and other monsters in the forest, they almost attacked humans every year.
Therefore, the Adventurers' Guild in E-Rantel always had standing tasks for clearing monsters.
