My Farm System: Reaching The Top In The Parallel Earth!

Rezen still lacks enough information since Ivy's database is incomplete or damaged; even if she has the necessary information, she might not spoonfeed it to him. There are times when Ivy has to let Rezen obtain information through his own effort

For now, Rezen could only guess why Junior Mages would either fight in close combat or attack from a safe distance

The fleeing tribesman continued to run towards Rezen. All he wanted to do was to flee from this place and get to a safe place. For that to happen, he is more than willing to kill Rezen that was blocking his path

On his hand was a metal sword and when he was close enough, he swung his sword at Rezen, intending to hack him to death

Unfortunately, the seemingly absentminded Rezen made a move just in time before he was cut by the sword

"[Fireball]"

Rezen calmly muttered as the fire-type Resonance Gem on his waist floated. He casually raised his right hand and from his palm, a small red magic circle formed. From that magic circle, a single ball of fire appeared

With a seemingly gentle movement, Rezen attacked. He moved his hand into the fleeing tribesman's stomach and his fireball followed his movement

"Argh..." the poor man lowered his head to see just what happened to him

Rezen's fireball burned his stomach and the scent of burnt meat wafted in the air. The point of contact was burned miserably that blood gushed out and the man's internal organs seems to have been fried

"Y-you..." that was the last word he uttered before he lost his life. His lifeless body fell down with a loud 'thud'

Even after killing someone, Rezen was still as calm as before. He had already killed many people, what is the addition of one more person?

"Now then... the fight is going to reach its end soon. I have to make a move now" Rezen uttered as he threw an Ogrehorn Nut into his mouth

As soon as he did so, a small protrusion appeared on his forehead as if a horn was starting to grow on it. At the same time, he felt his cells become more energetic than usual as his physical constitution has been elevated temporarily

After increasing his physical stats, Rezen sprinkled Juta Powder on himself. While the Junior Mages are focused on fighting each other, there is still a chance that they would notice and attack Rezen. He wants to minimize the risk as much as possible

With his preparation complete, Rezen started to run to the chaotic battlefield. Fortunately, the apprentice mages on his side were scattered and as long as they were not originally looking at Rezen, they might not notice him

At most, they would wonder where he suddenly went when they noticed that he disappeared

Rezen entered the chaotic battlefield, his eyes and other senses guarding for possible stray magic that would come flying in his direction

"Should I thank that madman, Flamaz? With him indiscriminately shooting fire and burning the huts, it's harder to notice anyone moving in here. This is the perfect stage for me" Rezen muttered

Since he doesn't know where the Junior Mages of the Metal Sword Tribe live especially their Chief, he could only choose to search the burning huts in the middle of the tribe

There's a high chance that just like in the Waterside Tribe, the Junior Mages of this tribe stay in huts at the center of the tribe

It was fortunate that the Junior Mages move as they fight and currently, none of them was near the center of the tribe

Rezen searched inside one burning hut after another while minding his surroundings

At this point, the huts were more or less already burned, their original structure has been destroyed making it harder for Rezen to search for anything useful

"Was my luck that bad? Does this tribe don't have any useful treasure or I just haven't entered the huts of the Junior Mages?" Rezen muttered as he frowned

When he looked at the fighting mages, he had seen that only the Chief and Titane are still alive

The other Junior Mages were already killed. As for the apprentices, they more or less died too

If they run away, they would be killed by the apprentice mages of the opposing side. If they stay in the tribe and decided to use their magic against the Junior Mages, they would also be killed. No matter what they do, the result is still death

"They are getting closer to me. One more hut! If I still haven't found anything useful, I would retreat" Rezen decided and he entered what remains of another hut

Due to Flamaz's flames and also the destruction brought by other mages, most things have been destroyed or burned already

However, in this particular hut, there was something that caught Rezen's attention

"Is that a book?" He asked in surprise. Not to mention a book, he hadn't even seen paper in the Waterside Tribe!

Even the label of his medicines in the cabinet are written or more like carved in wood. He didn't expect that he would find a book in this place!

In curiosity, Rezen approached the book and opened it. To his surprise, it was actually a book about magic!

It teaches the reader magical knowledge including magic spells!

Not to mention, this book was perfect for apprentice mages that want to reach the Junior Rank, and even when they reached that rank, the book could still support and supplement their magical knowledge

While Rezen didn't discover a treasure that would help him recover his farm, he found another useful thing. The information that he lacks to reach the Junior Rank is now in his hands

"But to see this kind of book here... this is weird. Does the owner of this hut found this in the ruins of some ancient mages or something but this book looks too new!"

That's right, aside from the dust that latched on the book because of what was currently happening, the book looks as if it was freshly printed

Of course, there might be magic that could preserve the book as if it was new even after years but Rezen has a feeling that the origin of this book is not as simple as one would think

"But either way, this book is helpful to me. I must have it!" Rezen muttered as he looked around him

He found some beast skin that was not fully burned yet and he took it. He also grabbed pieces of meat that the owner of this hut stored

Rezen used one beast skin to wrap the book before putting it on another beast skin that he put meat on

The bottom of the beast's skin that has become a large pouch has meat and on top of the meat was the wrapped book and on top of the book was another piece of large meat

In this way, Rezen would have an excuse and no one would notice the existence of the book

Anyway, tribal people care a lot about food. They wouldn't find Rezen weird for salvaging the food that the Metal Sword Tribe has

After getting his spoil of war, Rezen hurriedly moved his feet as he rush out of the chaotic battlefield

Just because he was lucky that no stray magic hits him doesn't mean that he would be forever fortunate

What he has to do now is retreat after obtaining sufficient benefits and that is when he heard a furious voice

"AAAHHH!!! I'LL KILL ALL OF YOU!!"

When Rezen turned to look at the source, he saw Titane crying tears of blood. His tribesmen, including his twin brother, has died

He would never forgive the people that destroyed his tribe

"Not good!" Rezen had a bad feeling about this and he didn't hesitate to use magic

"[Blessing of the Wind!]"

Winds gathered at Rezen's body as he ran to the opposite side of Titane. From time to time, he would glance back at Titane and he saw him taking out an oval-shaped jade. The jade's color was a chaotic mixture of blue and red that Titane didn't hesitate to swallow

At this point, the combination of Flamaz, Burning Fist, Chief, Rockim, and Right Wind has already killed the Chief of the Metal Sword Tribe

As for Stone Head, Left Wind, and Weaver, they were originally fighting Titane that is bound to die in a few more exchanges

What they didn't expect was that after swallowing the blue and red jade, Titane's aura would suddenly go berserk

Titane's mana leaked out from his body and his mana was mixed with red color the shade of blood

"AAAHHHH!!!"

Strong gusts of winds appeared with Titane as the center and the people and rubbles near him were sent flying

The ground below Titane cracked and shattered as his strength was forcefully raised by the jade he consumed
