A mage's journey begins with a battle mage.

Chapter 651 Heading to the City

It has to be said that having a car in this wilderness is awesome, especially when you can use magic to make it drive itself.

"The scenery is beautiful and spectacular."

Jiang Shuzhou, who had forgotten to turn off the auto-pickup function, looked at the approaching red sandstorm outside and couldn't help but sigh.

"You call this pretty good?"

Looking out at the vast expanse of white, where there was nothing but huge stone pillars, Roland was exasperated.

Jiang Shuzhou shrugged at this, saying that the guy didn't know how to appreciate beauty.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that the sandstorm not far away had an absurdly fast wind speed, which could easily kill her.

As for Jiang Shuzhou, he is immortal. This little bit of trouble is not as stressful as when he faced Renodia's roar.

Jiang Shuzhou felt a headache coming on at the thought of Renotia. He had promised to go on a honeymoon, but his old habit had kicked in again, and he had set up another scheme.

This has caused the other party to become extremely angry and enraged, and they have gone to the Astral Plane to smash, loot, and burn down planes to vent their anger.

Jiang Shuzhou had no choice but to accept this, since plans can't keep up with changes, and besides, wasn't he quite free right now?

If Renoir comes, wouldn't that be like going on a honeymoon?

"What are you thinking about? You seem a little distracted."

"I miss my wife."

Jiang Shuzhou casually brushed it off with a reply.

"What? You have a wife?"

Roland was shocked.

How can someone with such low emotional intelligence even have a wife?

Is there any justice left in this world?

"I stole it."

"..."

Roland, who had originally intended to ask further questions, instantly changed his gaze towards Jiang Shuzhou upon hearing those words.

"Do you know you've broken the law?"

"?"

Jiang Shuzhou was used to being unrestrained, and no one could control him except himself, so he was also quite straightforward in his speech. He never expected that his words would have such an impact on a young girl.

After a moment's thought, Jiang Shuzhou finally realized what was going on.

So kidnapping someone is illegal?

Oh no, why didn't you say so earlier? I forgot.

It wasn't that Jiang Shuzhou had a bad memory, but rather that he didn't really grasp the concept anymore.

After all, he is now fighting wits and courage against the gods every day, and planes are burning one after another. The number of people who have died indirectly because of him is in the hundreds of millions, and that is the number every day, and the intensity of the war is not very high.

"She did it voluntarily; we got on the bus first and bought the ticket later."

Jiang Shuzhou started spouting nonsense and making things up.

"Yeah?"

Roland was somewhat skeptical.

"Of course, believe it or not, it's up to you."

Roland was speechless at this guy who couldn't even be bothered to pretend.

"Then let's assume that's how it is."

Roland sighed softly and didn't say anything more.

She's not a child anymore, and she knows a lot about the dirty and sordid things in the world. This time, she was mainly dissatisfied with Jiang Shuzhou's actions because she was a woman.

As Roland pondered this, he unconsciously moved his body as far away from Jiang Shuzhou as possible; this guy was in some danger.

Jiang Shuzhou was naturally aware of this, but he didn't take it seriously; instead, he almost laughed.

Roland, that guy, still thinks he's a woman. What will he be like when he wakes up? Jiang Shuzhou didn't even dare to imagine how interesting that would be.

It must be said that even after becoming a being comparable to the gods, Jiang Shuzhou still enjoys watching and having fun, which is something he does to maintain his humanity and remind himself that he is still a human being.

After all, it doesn't need to sleep or eat, and it can do anything that ordinary people can do with a wave of its hand.

After going through this process, very few people won't develop the illusion that they are gods.

Previously, Jiang Shuzhou's situation in the Mage Alliance was better, since he was surrounded by mages and didn't feel so lonely.

But now it's different.

Even legendary mages would tremble with fear before Jiang Shuzhou, raising their hands and proclaiming their loyalty.

Of course, they did it willingly.

After all, the level that Jiang Shuzhou has now reached is extremely close to what the mages call "truth".

This is the ultimate form that all mages dream of, the version of themselves that mages dream of.

However, Jiang Shuzhou didn't feel much about it, and even found it a bit boring.

After all, in the pursuit of truth, what matters is never the result, but the process and the joy of exploring the unknown.

If we lose sight of the unknown, then even if we know the truth and control everything, what joy is there in it?

Fortunately, Jiang Shuzhou still has many unknowns to explore, and he can also find ways to have fun.

As for the future?

That depends on Jiang Shuzhou himself.

Perhaps, once the mystery is solved, there will be even more mysteries to discover.

How did the astral plane come about? Are there other things similar to the astral plane outside?

These are all mysteries that Jiang Shuzhou needs to explore.

However, the focus should be on the war against the gods, since Jiang Shuzhou's exploration will never be safe as long as these gods live.

So, before exploring these mysteries, I should first kill these guys who are blocking my way.

A violent sandstorm swept across the land, and everything around seemed to be swallowed up by the scarlet dust.

Looking around, all one could see was a sea of ​​crimson.

"Hold on tight, we're about to cross the storm!"

With autonomous driving cancelled, Jiang Shuzhou personally took charge, preparing to directly cross the storm before him.

"Are you crazy? This storm is so eerie, it's obvious something's hiding inside, and you still dare to go?"

Roland clearly did not agree with Jiang Shuzhou's approach.

Jiang Shuzhou pursed his lips, looking somewhat speechless.

Jiang Shuzhou knew perfectly well whether there was anything inside.

This is just an ordinary storm, nothing caused by some monster.

The test is over, and now it's time to go to the city to strengthen Roland's abilities, so Jiang Shuzhou naturally doesn't need to make any further arrangements.

Perhaps Roland was a little nervous due to the bizarre experiences he had had these past few days.

"Listen to me, it'll be fine."

"Besides, if we take a detour, it will take several more days. Do you think there won't be any danger during that time?"

"The longer you stay in a place like this, the greater the danger. Leaving sooner might actually reduce the danger."

Upon hearing this, Roland fell silent.

Jiang Shuzhou is right. The longer you stay in this godforsaken place, the higher the danger becomes.

However, she was still somewhat undecided.

"I have magical items that can detect living beings."

After hearing this, Roland fell silent.

She believed that Jiang Shuzhou wouldn't joke about his own life.

"Now, use Mage Shield to prevent the storm from tearing the car apart."

Jiang Shuzhou said.

Roland nodded and did as instructed.

Soon, a blue ripple appeared on the car body.

This is a symbol of the shield being activated.

"Time to speed things up!"

Jiang Shuzhou slammed on the gas pedal, and the car sped off at an extremely illogical speed.

If Lin Kui were here, he would be very surprised, for the simple reason that this car cannot be driven that fast.

Perhaps it was a few minutes, perhaps a few hours, but in any case, not long after, the storm outside the window quietly receded, and the surroundings became calm again.

"Did they make it through?"

Roland was somewhat bewildered. Was this all happening a little too fast?

However, what confused her even more was the scenery outside the car.

It was a vibrant green, without any glaring scarlet or monsters; there was only peace and tranquility.

This is the outskirts of the city.
