Strange! My Magics are Cultivating on Their Own - Chapter 22

Chapter 22: Sunset Gorillas

The direction the voice came from was exactly where Blumer had said the water source was.

“Not good! Irvine has been captured by a monster!” Dulkelon said anxiously.

He was the one who’d gone out with Irvine. Now that Irvine had been caught, he’d escaped.

From this, it could be seen just how unreliable Durkelon was. Blumer had no time to care about Durkelon.

He raced toward the water source with Lorne at his heels, leaving Durkelon to wallow in regret.

If he hadn’t run away just now and faced it with Irvine, he wouldn’t be treated like this now.

But his cowardice still overcame his courage. His speed of escape was truly fast.

Lorne and Blumer didn’t have time to worry about what he was thinking. They needed to get to the rescue of Irvine now.

The most anxious of them all was Blumer. Irvinene’s mother had died early and he had watched Irvine grow up.

If something were to happen to Irvine, as a father, he wouldn’t want to live anymore. It was as if he could sense Blumer’s mood.

“It’ll be alright,” Lorne assured him. “Irvine will be alright.”

Hearing Lorne’s words of comfort, Blumer nodded. At the same time, he was thinking to himself, “Irvine, nothing must happen to you!”

At the same time, they quickened their pace and soon arrived at the lake.

At this moment, the water bag was still on the ground. Other than the water bag, there were also some coconut balls on the ground. These things were not common.

Lorne suddenly thought of a type of magical beast that liked to come out and play at this time. That was the unique magical beast that was exclusive to the Sunset Mountains.

Sunset Gorillas, they often brought home strange or pretty things, just like bandits in the mountains.

As long as it was something they liked, they would do anything to bring it home.

At the thought of this, Lorne sighed. “It’s alright.”

Hearing Lorne’s words, Blumer asked curiously and anxiously, “Mr. Lorne, what’s fine? Did you discover something?”

Lorne nodded. He didn’t correct Blumer anymore. He said calmly, “It should be the Sunset Gorilla.”

Hearing Lorne’s words, Blumer felt a stab in his heart because the Sunset Gorilla was a magical beast of the fifth or sixth rank.

With his strength, he was no match for those magical beasts. How could he save his daughter? Wasn’t that wishful thinking?

Just as he asked himself that question, he looked at Lorne beside him. This mysterious and powerful young mage was the only chance he had to save Irvine.

He knelt down in front of Lorne and said humbly, “Venerable Lorne, please save my daughter. I only have one daughter. I really don’t want anything to happen to her!”

Looking at the man crying in front of him, Lorne’s heart softened. He understood why this man was like this.

Those parents weren’t worried about their children. Irvine had been raised by Blumer as a father and mother.

The father-daughter bond between them was very deep. Blumer cried out, “As long as you can rescue Irvine, She will be your wife!”

Hearing Blumer’s words, Lorne wasn’t happy at all. He hurriedly helped Blumer up. “I will definitely save Irvine but the matter of her becoming my wife remains to be decided.”

“Moreover, the Sunset Gorilla has a common characteristic. They won’t attack fresh things that they’ve just caught nor will they eat them themselves or whatever. Therefore, I’m certain that she is still safe for now. The most important thing now is to find the Sunset Gorilla’s nest. Otherwise, there’s no way to save Irvine.”

While the two of them were talking, Durkelon arrived late. Seeing him coming over, Lorne asked without hesitation, “Durkelon, did you see the black shadow that attacked you heading in any direction?”

Durkelon, who had just walked over, heard Lorne’s question and Blumer looked at him anxiously. He knew that his chance to show off had come.

He carefully recalled what had just happened in his mind. After a while, he pointed in a direction and said, “I remember now. The black shadow ran in that direction after abducting Irvine.”

As soon as he said that, Lorne and Blumer ran in the direction he pointed. Now they had a general direction.

As long as Lorne released his spiritual power, it would be easier to find the Sunset Gorilla’s lair. Soon, they arrived at a desolate tree hole.

From the forest in the distance, they could see that Irvine was hung on a net made of vines.

The two Sunset Gorillas were playfully scaring Irvine. Irvine watched as they almost touched her.

She was so frightened that she started crying. “Wuwuwu, don’t come over!”

She kept slapping it with her hands but it didn’t help. The Sunset Gorilla had seen that Irvine was so upset and crying.

When they saw Irvine crying in the net, they laughed loudly and beat their chests as if they had encountered something happy.

They laughed and rolled around on the ground. These magical beasts were the Dusk Mountain Range gangsters. They didn’t do anything serious but they were very annoying.

Back then, Camet had told him that if a beast did not beg for mercy when encountering such a magical beast, he should quickly kill it.

If it begged and would never bother you again because magical beasts were afraid of being beaten but they were also very naughty.

Seeing Irvine crying, the Sunset Gorilla jumped up happily as if it was playing with a toy.

If it weren’t for the fact that they were extremely powerful, Lorne and Blumer would have attacked long ago.

When they saw that Irvine was not in danger, the two of them wanted to discuss how to rescue her.

Just as the two of them were about to discuss, Durkelon ran over. He saw the few Sunset Gorillas in front of him lying on the ground in fear.

“Mon… monster! They’re the ones who took Irvine.” Durkelon’s voice was loud and the Sunset Gorilla looked in their direction when it saw someone.

“Shut your mouth!” The enraged Blumer slapped Durkelon on the neck and Durkelon felt his head hurt.

Then, he fainted. It seemed that Blumer was truly angry. If he failed to rescue Irvine, he would definitely vent his anger on Durkelon.

Every father would blame himself for failing to rescue his only daughter because of him.

Seeing that the Sunset Gorilla had already discovered them, Lorne said to Blumer, “Let’s attack directly. Otherwise, when the Sunset Gorilla reacts, we won’t have a chance.”

Hearing this, Blumer nodded as well. Right now, the most important thing was to save Irvine. Everything else could be put aside for now..
