After hearing Mari's answer, Thain remained silent.
In fact, he had already made plans to get some of the medicine and have a friendly exchange of information with Mali.
However, due to Statham's sudden attack and his forced counterattack, this friendly exchange obviously could not continue.
Among the black magicians in Mensobra, the weak do not deserve equal rights.
Even if Thain wanted to have a friendly exchange with the other party before, it was not because the other party happened to be neighbors with him.
It's just that Thain is more afraid of Statham's strength as a senior apprentice, so he is not willing to take the relevant risks for nothing.
But now, Thain can get the information he wants without paying any price. This is the superiority of the winner.
No, Thain still paid a certain price, such as the consumption of nearly half of the magic and mental power in his body, and his invisibility cloak that had entered the cooling period.
Of course, if you put in the effort, you will naturally reap the rewards.
In addition to the part of the information that he urgently needed to know, Thain's other gain was the cane that Mari just discarded on his own initiative.
This is a magic item of higher quality than the corrosion cane made by Thain himself. It contains an intermediate magic called "Earth Stab" engraved inside.
In terms of power, the Ground Sting Technique is only slightly inferior to the Flame Hand mastered by Thane.
Among the intermediate magic props, this cane can be regarded as a little gem.
After getting the information he wanted, Thain ignored the two guys leaning on each other.
The other party wanted his own life just now. Thain would not give the other precious medicine to him again. His heart was not that kind.
After quietly putting the magic staff he had just received into the space ring, Thain continued on his journey.
As for whether those two people died of thirst or starved to death in this land of yellow sand, Thain didn't want to care.
What surprised Thain a little was that when he set off, the intermediate apprentice Mari also dragged Statham's strong and heavy body and slowly followed Thain.
I don’t know how this guy was able to drag and move Statham’s body, and the way the other guy followed Thain closely behind him was probably an attitude of not giving up on life.
After all, the two of them would only die if they stayed there. They struggled to keep up with Thain with the last bit of strength, and there was no chance of returning to the camp.
Black magic apprentices are generally cold and indifferent to each other, but at this time when the camp is recruiting people, those quasi-magicians and senior apprentices should not just ignore them.
The premise is that they can return to the camp alive.
…
The hot day in the yellow sand world consumes too much energy and water for black magic apprentices like Thain and Mari.
After almost a day of progress, feeling the three suns above his head becoming increasingly hot and stinging on his skin, Thain finally stopped and came to a sand dune to rest and avoid the sun.
Stopping and stopping is the normal behavior of these black magic apprentices in this yellow sand world.
Because even the strongest among the apprentices cannot adapt to the dangerous environment of this yellow sand world.
A precious nutritional potion was carefully taken out from the space ring by Thane. This nutritional potion still had about one-third of its stock.
Thain only took a small sip, which was almost one-fifth of the remaining potion, and then put the nutritional potion back into the ring again.
The space ring has a preservation effect on most things placed in it. Thain doesn't know much about space science, so he doesn't know the specific reason for this.
But he knew that if the space ring did not have this function, he would not be able to last for such a long time.
Any medicine is limited by its shelf life and usage period, especially those medicines that have already been opened. If they are not used early, they may directly deteriorate and turn from good medicine into poison.
It is precisely by taking the potion in small sips that Thain has been able to survive until now.
Even if Mali had not deceived him, according to the route, when Thain arrived at the black magic apprentice camp, he might still have some potion left on hand.
After taking a sip of nutritional medicine, Thain leaned in the shade of the sand dune and closed his eyes to rest.
In a place like this, sleeping is simply a luxury.
Only at night once every fifteen days, the cooler environment will allow Thain to sleep more comfortably.
Most of the other times, Thain can only try his best to enter a state of tranquility and meditation, which is also a way for him to preserve his physical and mental strength.
Not long after Thain entered the meditative state, a "rustling" sound came from the surroundings, indicating that someone was coming.
The acid cane was immediately held in Thain's hand. When he looked at the incoming man, it was Mari who appeared in front of him with chapped skin and bloody lips.
The opponent's weak steps and eyes that could pass out at any time told Thain that this guy in front of him did not pose any threat.
Magic apprentices also have certain requirements for releasing magic. In Mali's current state, Thain doubted whether the other party could release a small secondary fireball or a lower-level light spell?
"Sain, I want to exchange some food with you, can you?" A weak voice came from Mari's mouth, and his eyes looked at the waist of Thain's empty magic robe.
Before Thain could refuse, Mari hurriedly added: "I can exchange it with you. I have something here that you will definitely be interested in."
Only then did Thain notice that a black rag robe was being carried behind Mari.
This rag robe should be the clothes of senior apprentice Statham. Sure enough, when Thain looked at another sand dune not far away, Statham, with his upper body exposed and his solid chest, lying flat in the yellow sand, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
"Why exchange? When you two die, these things will naturally be mine." Thain replied in a cold tone.
Thain's cold answer made Mali stop in place for a moment, not knowing what to say.
His cracked and bloody lips opened, and Mali tried to say something.
But when the words came to his lips, it seemed that there were really no words that could save him and Statham from the current predicament they were in.
A trace of tears appeared in his eyes. A grown man actually cried?
…
Mari finally turned around and left. He did not ask for anything from Thain. Staying with Statham at the last moment of his life was the best destination for him.
And the wisest thing Mali did before leaving was that he left the rag robe behind.
I don't know if he doesn't want to take these "wealths" with him to face death, or if he is still looking forward to something deep down in his heart.
Out of curiosity, really just curiosity.
After Mali left, Thane hugged the rag robe to find out what was inside.
There were a total of 16 elemental beads, which was beyond Thane's expectations.
You know, he only has two elemental beads in his hand now.
In addition to the elemental beads, Thane also found several Warcraft crystal cores, two magic books, and some useless black gold in his rag robe.
Mari and Statham don't seem to be living well off. Except for the short staff he got before, they have no other magic equipment.
