Full-time Mage: Heavy Water Returns to the World

……

The rain was getting heavier.

Wan Duanshan's eyes widened in disbelief. Behind him, hundreds of astonished military mages stood in the pouring rain, letting the rain wash over them as they stared incredulously at the faint yet blinding two consecutive radiant signals ahead.

Blue alert!

This is a higher alert level than the first level, orange alert, meaning that at least a thousand demons are eyeing Bo City covetously.

Bocheng has not seen this level of alert for at least ten years, and the sudden signal caught everyone off guard!
But before anyone could react, another beam of light shot into the sky!

Although the light was not large, it was enough for everyone to see and to feel a chill through their bodies.

Three consecutive beams of light...

The meaning of "glowing quantity" is familiar not only to the officers guarding the town, but also to the hunters who frequently visit the post station.

A flash of light—orange alert.

Two beams of light – blue alert.

As for the three beams of light, when have I ever seen them...?

"Ding Ding Ding! Ding Ding Ding!"

Suddenly, a rapid ringtone broke the eerie silence. Wan Duanshan took his phone out of his military overcoat pocket in the pouring rain and answered the call.

The first sound is the equally noisy rain, but after the rain comes an endless roar that cannot be concealed.

Having guarded Wan Duan Mountain for many years, how could they not recognize what that sound was—a one-eyed demon wolf, and there were quite a few of them, and they were still getting closer!
"Hey!"

The heavy rain was deafening; it sounded like the rain was roaring from Wan Duan Mountain.

"Commander Wan... This is Zhou Jin from the patrol team. The front line is under attack by a beast tide, numbering in the thousands and still growing. The Radiant Signal has been activated. Commander, please sound the alarm as soon as possible and notify Boss Zhan Kong!!! Brothers, hold on as long as you can and gather information about the beast tide."

Zhou Jin's voice was panting heavily, but there was no fear of death in his deep, hoarse voice. Even now, he did not request support, but was worried that the military had not noticed their warning signals.

Wan Duanshan's eyes reddened, and his whole body trembled with cold. He knew very well that Zhou Jin and the others could not possibly be alive. Making that phone call in that kind of place meant there was absolutely no chance of survival.

The next instant, Wan Duanshan's hoarse voice echoed through the rain.

"Sound the bloody alert!"

The surrounding military mages hadn't fully recovered yet.

"Commander Wan...is this true?" The military magistrate on the sentry post was unwilling to believe it.

Blood Alert...

It's a disaster!
It's a catastrophe!
Some people may live their whole lives without ever seeing the Red Alert, but those who have experienced the Red Alert once will never be able to escape its shadow for the rest of their lives!

"What are you waiting for? Do as I say!" Wan Duanfeng almost roared.

These idiots.

Didn't they know that delaying the alarm would cause more casualties? In situations like this, every second gained could save a life.

"Yes! Commander!"

On the phone, Zhou Jin breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Wan Duanshan's words, and then continued speaking.

"I hope Bocheng can overcome this difficulty. Commander, please convey my apologies to Boss Zhan Kong and also to Pan Lijun."

Wan Duanshan couldn't bring himself to tell them to retreat, because that would tarnish their honor as soldiers. In the face of disaster, all soldiers must be prepared to sacrifice themselves, including himself.

"If I'm still alive, I'll bring it. Captain Zhou Jin, take care."

"Ah."

After he finished speaking, the phone went dead. Wan Duanshan could imagine that Zhou Jin's team would be met with the most brutal torture next.

A vast expanse of rain fell.

Wan Duanshan knew he needed to stay calm, do the right thing, and immediately coordinate with everyone at the post station to respond.

After thinking it over, Wan Duanshan took one last look at the mountains behind the rain curtain. Although there was no major movement yet, he knew that it wouldn't be long before these lush mountains would be covered in deep darkness.

Wan Duanshan saluted the rain-shrouded mountains, then turned and left.

"Ugh——"

This time, Bocheng activated its Blood Alert system decisively and much earlier.

Although this aroused a lot of doubt among the military mages, once the news of Zhan Kong, who was still in Bo City, was sent out, everyone silently carried it out.

Even though Zhan Kong wasn't at the post station at the moment, no one dared to disobey the call of the God of War of Bo City.

Yes, Zhan Kong is not at the post station today, but inside Bo City.

Upon receiving Wan Duanshan's report, Zhan Kong pressed the citywide alarm button that was already at his fingertips without hesitation.

That's right, Zhan Kong had already prepared at the security center. Although he hadn't shown himself yet, the moment the phone rang from the Xuefeng Mountain Station, he forcefully took over the entire security center.

As soon as the aura of a high-level mage appeared, none of the staff dared to utter a sound.

Blood alert!
The whole city resounded!

"Woo——————"

"Woo——————"

The long, mournful warning wailing instantly drew everyone's attention. Whether they were pedestrians on the street or residents in shops and homes, everyone was drawn to the alarms blaring from all over the streets and alleys and that unmistakable crimson color.

For a moment, panic, confusion, and bewilderment began to rise, but the next instant, a powerful voice rang out over the loudspeaker.

"Attention all residents of Bocheng! Attention all residents of Bocheng!"

"I am Zhan Kong, a high-ranking mage from the Bo City Military Command."

"Please remain calm and follow the instructions of nearby staff to reach the safe zone via the evacuation route. Again, please do not panic. The Bocheng Military Headquarters stands with you and will never back down!"

"..."

The broadcast was turned off, leaving only a busy signal.

At first, people were still panicked. Although Zhan Kong had told everyone to escape to the safe zone, he hadn't said how to get there. In the panic, not everyone could remember the route of the exercise they had participated in two weeks ago.

"Mommy, are we going to die?" A toddler clung tightly to his mother's skirt and burst into tears.

The young mother was also filled with panic and confusion. She was also very lost, but as a mother, she could not show it. She could only hold her child tightly and walk aimlessly down the street.

The road conditions were terrible.

The disaster was imminent. Although no demons were seen yet, order had already begun to collapse, with the roads filled with blocked vehicles and the sound of horns.

I can't imagine what kind of devastation would occur if such a scene were to encounter demons.

But just as the mother was feeling lost, a voice suddenly rang out in front of her.

"Madam, please follow me. I will take you to the safe zone."

The voice, like a lifeline, made the mother look up in surprise. It was a beautiful girl dressed casually, with unusually fair skin and bright red lips.

"I'm in charge of the emergency evacuation for the Magic College Entrance Examination. The safe zone is quite far from here, and time is of the essence. Please follow me, ma'am," the beautiful girl explained, noticing the other woman's concern and showing her work ID.

[Safety Officer: Klina]

After seeing the work ID, the mother no longer hesitated and quickly followed.

"Thank you, thank you, I'm so glad I have you all, sob sob sob..." Finally, after finding someone to rely on, the mother couldn't hold back her emotions and burst into tears.

Those nearby who heard the commotion also gathered around.

one person……

Two people……

About ten people...

Soon, within just a few minutes, a group of dozens of people formed on this street, and it was still growing.
