Chapter 713: 713
Whoosh!
Merlin was hovering in the air when he saw something that was covered in warts, had a mouth full of sharp teeth, and two wings dotted thickly with spikes .
It was a huge bird, larger than the three-headed dragon, and Merlin could also feel that this beast was even stronger than the three-headed dragon .
The ferocious life force exuding from its body was comparable to Great Wizards’ .
Skree!
The savage raptor screeched loudly and spread its wings, charging viciously towards Merlin . Its claws were powerful . It was a ferocious raptor that relied completely on the strength of its body .
“Silencing Ray!”
Merlin spread his hand out, and Darkness Eye appeared . A large crimson eye emerged behind him, and a ray of light shot immediately towards the raptor .
Tss .
The penetrating power of Silencing Ray was incredibly strong, and its power was comparable to those Great Legends who had formed at least one Maxim . If one was not careful, even Maxims could be destroyed by Silencing Ray .
As a result, a bloody hole appeared on the savage raptor right after it was hit by Silencing Ray . The bird went mad with pain, but Merlin realized that the fighting capacity of the creature did not weaken at all . It instead became even more aggressive, and the bloody hole on its body was recovering slowly .
“Interesting . It’s not even afraid of Silencing Ray!”
Merlin used Darkness Eye to send out several more Silencing Rays, and the crimson light shot madly towards the savage raptor . However, the raptor seemed to have learned from experience this time . With a sweep of its wings, the incredibly large creature dodged the Silencing Rays one after another .
The savage raptor was getting closer to where Merlinwas, and the strong gales caused by its wings billowed at his direction . While he was observing, Merlin estimated that this raptor was comparable to Great Legends with two Maxims .
Furthermore, it was incredibly swift . It had no way of attacking by using spells and only had terrifying close combat . One could guess how frightening its close combat prowess was just by seeing how it constantly tried to approach Merlin .
“Wind!”
Merlin saw that the savage raptor was getting closer and closer, and a multi-color Wizard Heart appeared behind him . Huge magical energy gushed out and formed a giant hand composed entirely of strong winds .
This giant hand covered almost half of the sky . A sense of terrifying oppressiveness could be felt upon its appearance . Even the menace of the savage raptor seemed to be suppressed .
Boom!
The giant hand made up of strong winds slammed down, and the savage raptor’s body was immediately caught . No matter how hard the creature struggled, it was to no avail .
“Ice Seal!”
Merlin pointed again, and the savage raptor’s entire body froze, leaving just the head unscathed . That was because Merlin did not want to kill the creature now .
Rumble…
Then, the savage raptor encased in ice smashed to the ground, and a large pit was formed as a consequence .
The multi-colored Wizard Heart behind Merlin also disappeared . He landed on the ground and watched as the savage raptor struggled . If Merlin did not withdraw the multi-colored Wizard Heart, those ice crystal would keep the raptor frozen until it finally died .
This savage raptor seemed to have some intelligence . After struggling for a while and finding it futile, it slowly quieted down and stopped its squirming . It fixed its eyes on Merlin .
It knew that this seemingly ‘weak’ person before him had defeated it .
Merlin then began to use his Mind Power to study the savage raptor’s body . He swept its body and found every inch of it contained explosive power .
It was indeed a ferocious beast at close combat, similar to the Giant Tribe in the Void Zone . Of course, the Giant Tribe was incredibly powerful by nature, and their bodies were extremely robust . This savage raptor seemed to be comparable to a Great Legend Giant .

No matter how he looked at it, it had no connection to Spell Casters . After all, even if the three-headed dragon was comparable to a Great Wizard, it had to rely on releasing terrifying spells to become a fierce beast that everyone feared . It was completely different from this savage raptor .
“Are you willing to submit to me?”
Merlin directly projected his Mind Power into the savage raptor’s head . This was the most direct way of communication . Generally, only beings that were above Legend would be able to master it .
Of course, Spell Casters used Mind Power . Other tribes such as the Giant Tribe used their own unique power to communicate in their minds without being bound by language barriers .
The savage raptor seemed to have retained some sort of intelligence . It assessed its current circumstances after having heard Merlin . Finally, it bowed its head to express its willingness to submit .
Merlin waved his hand lightly and removed the spell . The savage raptor immediately regained its freedom, but Merlin was not worried . The gap between the raptor and him was too large .
The savage raptor did not immediately ‘turn against’ him either . Fierce beasts like it were probably more loyal than anyone of this world, in the Void Zone, or even in the Land of Glory . They would never betray their masters unless they were abandoned once they have submitted .
The savage raptor crawled down and lowered its head to show its obedience to Merlin .
“Very good . ”
Merlin relied on the three-headed dragon to travel quickly in the Glorious Land and was used to having a fierce beast . This savage raptor was comparable to a Great Legend and was extremely fast . It was just what he needed . Furthermore, it was far stronger than the three-headed dragon .
“Let’s go explore this new world!”
Merlin flew onto the back of the savage raptor . Its soft feathers were much more comfortable than the three-headed dragon’s back . He grew more and more interested in this new world . It seemed to have endless secrets that needed Merlin to discover little by little .
Swoosh!
The savage raptor spread its wings and flew into the sky with a fierce flap .

On the bumpy gravel road, dozens of carriages escorted by hundreds of knights drove by slowly .
In the carriages sat mostly women and children as well as some sundries . It seemed like the entire family was migrating . Occasionally, the soft cries of the women and children could be heard .
Heroic knights guarded the entourage closely . This was the family of Count Mandela . The envoy was also flying the flag of Count Mandela .
However, Count Mandela, who owned a large territory, was sending his family out at the moment . This made everyone feel depressed, and a heavy atmosphere had permeated the air ever since then .
In the middle of the entourage was a luxurious carriage . A beautiful woman sat in the carriage wearing a light blue dress . She looked worried and would lift the blinds in the carriage from time to time to look at the sky behind her .
“The barbarians’ attack this time was so fierce that father sent us away . I’m afraid he’s preparing for the worst to happen . ”
Unpleasant thoughts flashed one after another in Mia’s mind . The entire city would be reduced to ruins if those barbarians attacked and broke through Mandela City . The savage barbarians were not civilized and only know about wanton destruction and bloody slaughter .
“Sister, don’t worry . I’ll protect you! I promised father that I’ll protect you until we arrive at Lombard City .
The person who had spoken was a boy around twelve to thirteen years old sitting in the carriage, but his body was very strong . There was a huge sword on his back, and a fearsome life force was permeating from his body . If one did not see his immature face, no one would have believed that he was just a teenage boy .
“Yes, my little Kevin has grown up and can protect his elder sister, but Lombard City is still very far away . We have so many families here but only a few hundred knights . It’s still very dangerous . ”
Compared to Kevin, Mia was clearly the one who was controlling the entourage . She had taken a lot of things into consideration . Ruba City was a way out that Count Mandela had arranged for them, and they would only be safe there . There would be no invasions from barbarians and no attacks from fearsome beasts either .
There were even Sanctuary Contenders there . Ruba City was the safest and strongest city for the Mobatans . It was their greatest hope as well .
Barbarians and fierce beasts constantly attacked the cities of the Mobatans . The Mobatans split long ago and all fought on their own . They had to learn to fight barbarians and kill beasts since childhood . Even women had to take up arms to fight .

Being able to live a peaceful life was the wish of every Mobata person .
“Don’t worry, elder sister . One day, I’ll become a Sanctuary Contender . I’ll expel those barbarians and beasts, and protect father, mother, sister, and save all the Mobatans . ”
Kevin patted his chest . Becoming a Sanctuary Contender and protecting the Mobatans might be the goal of all youngsters, but it was extremely hard to become one . There were only a dozen Sanctuary Contenders in the entire Mobata world . It was precisely because of the ten Sanctuary Contenders that the Mobatans had not been wiped to extinction .
They were the protectors and heroes of all the Mobatans!
“Kevin, you’ll definitely have the opportunity to become a Sanctuary Contender as long as you work hard . You’ll be able to protect me as well as the Mobata world!”
Mia looked at Kevin with an expression of gratitude . Kevin was only twelve years old, but he was already a stage-four contender . Perhaps he could become a stage-eight contender like his father, Count Mandela, one day .
A stage-eight contender was enough to support an entire clan . The burden of the family’s future would eventually fall on Kevin’s shoulders . He would become the hope of the clan in the future .
“Halt!”
Suddenly, the entourage was stopped . The sounds of hooves were heard outside, and a knight hurried to Mia’s carriage and said in a hushed tone, “Lady Mia, something’s wrong . There’s a large group of fierce beasts in front of us . They’re charging wildly at us for some reason . We’re prepared to fight to the death to stop the herd . ”
“Fierce beasts?”
Mia paled . She quickly lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw the dust floating in the air outside . Her greatest worry had indeed come true . With just these few hundred knights, they could not do much even if they came across barbarians or ferocious beasts .
This was especially true when it came to this herd of beasts before their eyes . They rushed over like the tide, and there were even some stage-seven ferocious beasts among them . Those were master-level beasts and were extremely terrifying .
“Run, Kevin . Run away with the knights . Sister will buy some time for you . You’re the hope of the family!”
Mia closed her eyes and made a decision quickly . She would stay here and command the troops to block this herd of fierce beasts and try her best to buy Kevin time to escape .
Kevin was the only hope of the clan!
