I Got 999 Level With One Cut

Shu Hsingnan got off the airship with the flag of Gaul and stepped onto the land of Jianan. She narrowed her eyes and looked listless under the hot sun. It was the beginning of September, and it was not the hottest time in this area. However, the high temperature in the past few months had yet to subside. The sun was still hanging in the sky, burning the land with a long history. At the same time, it also caused the light and fire elements in this place to be especially active.    

Riko silently waved her hand and gathered the only Ice element in the air together. The temperature in the air immediately dropped a lot.    

"It's so cool."    

Shu Hsingnan walked beside her and stuck out her tongue to breathe in the rare cool air.    

Shu Hsingnan glanced at Angarmarin and Lorin who had followed her for more than three thousand kilometers, "Why are you here?"    

This was the Jianan of Gaul. Riko and the rest set off from Lotterdall. They took a total of four days to arrive here by airship.    

The Jianan was one of the earliest human magic civilizations. Forty thousand years ago, the people here had started to use mysterious incantations to communicate with the elements of heaven and earth. After the Ascian Language they used was transmitted to the many city-state civilizations in the Aegean Sea, it quickly evolved into the language of the Aegean Sea. Then, under the invasion of Elven Empire, it gradually evolved into the advanced elven language, which was the source of the modern magic incantation system.    

After the destruction of the Elven Empire, this place became the territory of the original Elven Empire and was assigned to the newly built Gaul Kingdom. Although this was once one of the earliest humans who could use magic, there weren't many powerful Titled Devil Instructor warriors that had appeared in the past few thousand years.    

Hook, who was an Eighth Grade Titled Devil Instructor, probably brought Shu Hsingnan to an ancient ruin that had a history of over ten thousand years.    

Riko entrusted the teaching task to Loli Merlin, who had nothing to do, and then she brought Angarmarin and Lorin, who would follow her no matter what, with her. After a month of long vacation across the entire Mediterranean Sea, they stood in this city, which might be the most ancient human settlement in the world.    

The capital of Jianan, Holy Graves City, was a holy city with many major religions. In history, it was often fought over by many groups. People wearing different religions could be seen walking on the streets. The houses here were almost all rectangular in shape. Under the hot weather, it was a kind of desert yellow color.    

The four of them quickly left the city.    

It was still early in the morning, so no one planned to stay in the city for the night. Shu Hsingnan's suggestion to leave the city was quickly supported by Angarmarin and Lorin, so they simply hired a horse carriage. They slowly walked towards the north.    

The speed of the carriage was naturally very slow.    

In addition, the road was not smooth, and after an hour of bumpy road, the driver happily announced that they only needed to travel at this speed for another three days to reach the mountain range Shu Hsingnan mentioned.    

"So boring."    

Shu Hsingnan turned her head to look at Riko, her eyes seemed to be flashing with light.    

"Oh right, since Professor Heather Gava is so powerful, can you take us there?"    

"Sure."    

Riko slightly tilted her head.    

"I have said it many times. Just call me Rikku. This is not the academy."    

Riko hoped that others would use her name to address her because this way of address made it feel like both parties were very good friends.    

"Alright, Rikku."    

Shu Hsingnan looked like she was still not used to it.    

Riko took out a purple coin from the storage bag of the wrinkled robe and threw it to the coachman in Lotterdall. The coachman looked at her in surprise and said a spell.    

The incantation of the group flight skill and the flying skill were only slightly different. As the last note fell, the Wind Element gently lifted the four of them up. Next, Shu Hsingnan could only feel the scenery under her feet changing rapidly. And... Boom! She was almost suffocated by the high speed wind. Luckily, Riko noticed this. She carefully put a shield in front of each of them.    

Among the remaining three people, the one who was the most surprised was actually Angarmarin, who was expressionless most of the time along the way. She had basically been quarreling with Lorin the whole time. She had always thought that Riko only knew how to attack magic theory. Although she might be a relatively powerful Great Mage, her flying skill had completely overturned the impression she had of Riko in her heart.    

Those who could use the flying skill were all Great Devil Instructor, and those who could compress the group flight skill's incantation to such a degree were most likely Titled Devil Instructor. It was precisely because there was such a level of existence in her family that Angarmarin was more aware of Riko's scariness than the other two.    

Lorin still did not know what the flying skill meant. Shu Hsingnan, on the other hand, had realized her strength a long time ago because of the mysterious old grandpa.    

So in the end, only the green-haired girl silently stared at Riko Hasegawa's side profile in the air and fell into deep thought. No one knew what she was thinking about.    

With the help of the flying skill, they completed the journey of three days in less than an hour.    

However, at noon, the four of them were already standing on the hillside of a mountain in the Kurnett Mountains.    

This place was also over a hundred kilometers away from the nearest town. It was a desolate wilderness that no one usually visited. The deeper they went into the mountain range, the more dangerous the magic beast that appeared in their surroundings became. Of course, only normal merchant caravans and mercenary groups would feel the danger.    

As long as Riko revealed a little of her aura, the magic beast would foam at the mouth and die on the side of the road due to the huge difference in strength.    

This was the incomparably strict level suppression in magic.    

A higher level represented a deeper understanding of the rules of the world, and the power that could be used would directly rise to a higher level. And the difference between Riko and these magic beast was very large.    

"That is the place we are going to."    

When they were about to reach the top of the mountain, Shu Hsingnan pointed to the precipitous rift between the two peaks in the distance and turned to Angarmarin.    

"Papaya, did you hear anything?"    

The green-haired girl shook her head.    

"It seems like someone is traveling with us." Riko pointed at the foot of the mountain.    

She quietly released the detection magic. She noticed that about two kilometers below the mountain, a dozen mages were chanting. Their enemy was a group of blue-feathered Thunderbird.
