Full-time Mage: Heavy Water Returns to the World

……

The counterattack has begun.

With the source of the turmoil gone, the undead army lost its previous offensive momentum, like scattered soldiers. Even the last remaining commander-level bone shield mummy had lost much of its fighting spirit.

However, it was not a mindless, low-level undead, and it continued to hunt down Zoe.

Soi did not engage in a direct confrontation. After stalling the enemy for a few minutes, reinforcements from the Chinese National Government finally arrived.

"A meteor shower and thunderous roar!"

"thunderbolt!"

A powerful shout rang out from afar, followed by a dark cloud of churning lightning that enveloped the bone shield mummy, its imposing aura and destructive power rolling in.

"Dance wildly!"

At Mao Xianyi's command, countless thunderbolts struck down from the thunderclouds, relentlessly bombarding the jade bone, causing countless visible cracks to appear!

This power... is not much weaker than the high-level magic that Zoe used just now!

This is not just the effect of top-tier Soul Lightning; Mao Xianyi's own lightning skills must also have some hidden trump cards that have not yet been revealed to the public.

"Thank you."

Soi was immediately healed by Song Zhizhi's healing spirit and wind guide, and at the same time, two consecutive whooshing sounds rang out.

Two scorching hot fists blasted towards the bone shield mummy, which was paralyzed by the lightning.

The paralysis time of mid-level magic on commander-level undead is limited, but Bai Mei and Mao Xianyi's coordination was just right to take effect.

"Oh!"

"Bang!!!"

Two fierce punches landed, and the bone shield mummy was forced back, the bursting flames directly engulfing its entire body, causing it to scream in pain.

"Another Soul Seed!" Soi exclaimed in amazement as he watched the scene.

Unexpectedly, besides Mao Xianyi, the leader, there was another such powerful fire-type soul seed mage in the Huaguo National Government!

The outcome of the next battle was no surprise.

The situation in Emperor Valley gradually turned one-sided, and before nightfall, the main force had already begun to clean up the battlefield.

The Nationalist government officials were invited back to the camp, but this time, they were treated much better than when they arrived.

In addition to having an officer on standby outside the Chinese Nationalist government's camp throughout the entire trip, even their seats were arranged in the quietest places.

With so many wounded gathered and the battle having just ended, the camp was naturally far from peaceful.

"Finally, I can rest for a while." Dongfang Linlin sat down, took a sip of hot water, and said contentedly.

Inside the tent, the National Government officials gathered together, but in addition to the Nan Yi group, there were two more figures in the tent.

It was Feng Li and another chubby mentor.

"You did a good job this time."

Even Feng Li's usually stern and serious face couldn't help but reveal a smile, clearly indicating that he was very satisfied with the performance of the National Government staff this time.

The speed at which the team resolved the Pharaoh's Tomb was exceptionally fast, a feat rarely seen in the Valley of the Kings, significantly reducing casualties and resource losses in Luxor. He had already received heartfelt thanks from the local government, who were incredibly warm and grateful on the phone, and expressed their strong desire for China's involvement in the future development of the Valley of the Kings.

Disasters often coexist with opportunities.

No one wants to miss the secrets of the Valley of the Kings, especially the Chinese nation, which also suffers from a great deal of undead chaos.

During this period after the turmoil has subsided, the number of undead inside and outside Emperor Valley will decrease, and the strength of the Heart-Breaking Forbidden Zone will also weaken, making it the most suitable time for in-depth exploration.

Although the weakening of the Heart-Binding Barrier will make it more difficult for all undead curse-related magic circles and mechanisms to appear, at least there is no need to worry about death.

The researchers, including Taviset, were so knowledgeable about the Valley of the Kings not simply because they accumulated experience in the brief moments of each upheaval, but because they gradually learned through trial and error during the periods of emptiness that followed each upheaval.

Tavi also mentioned this point.

In the early days when the undead riots first appeared, people had no idea how to deal with them or how to enter the Valley of the Kings to find the Pharaoh's Tomb. As a result, each riot lasted for at least six months. People were simply unable to resist the increasingly terrifying tide of undead and had no choice but to evacuate.

Yes, evacuate the city of Luxor.

It wasn't until later that people gradually found a solution, but they were completely unfamiliar with the Valley of the Kings, and countless lives were lost and bones were left behind before they finally managed to suppress the undead riot for the first time.

Han Li, who is usually very lively, became unusually quiet, perhaps because he was thinking about something.

Feng Li looked at everyone and continued.

"The rewards for this event will be announced in a while. Today, I'm mainly here to announce your upcoming arrangements."

The crowd immediately fell silent.

"So far, this year's National Government training program has progressed very smoothly, with each station's completion time far exceeding that of previous years."

Feng Li was right. This year has been too smooth. Under normal circumstances, it would take at least until October of the second half of the year to complete so many training sessions. If things hadn't gone smoothly, it would have been delayed even more. But it's not even July yet, and the group has already arrived here.

The National Government badge is almost enough to qualify for the Venice finals; getting another badge will only affect the group assignment.

However, most countries do not intentionally control the number of national emblems to get themselves into a desired group.

Firstly, it is extremely difficult to implement, as most countries would not disclose the information. Secondly, countries that hope to achieve a ranking would not bother to do so.

China would never do that; the countries chosen for the training are all aimed at developing students.

The totems of the Norwegian forest revive, sea monsters besiege the British border, the chaotic magnetic field of Walesburg, the blessings of the Greek temple, and the undead riots of the ancient Egyptian kingdom.

Every step of the plan was designed to enhance the practical skills, teamwork, and horizons of the Nationalist government personnel.

They are all prodigies. If they only have magical cultivation, they can never become true strongmen without actual combat. Without teamwork, they can never defeat teams of prodigies from all over the world. Without seeing enough things, it is difficult to maintain a calm mind on a stage where prodigies compete for supremacy.

All three are indispensable.

Having witnessed the small yet sophisticated power of Europe and the ancient, simple mystery of Africa, Feng Li now planned to let them experience true primitiveness.

"I will not tell you the specific destination for now. You can rest for a week, and then walk across Africa to the southern Cape of Good Hope. There, a prepared ship will take you to the next stop, and the mission will be announced on the ship."

"Alright, you've all worked hard these past few days. Take a good rest. The next stop won't be so easy."

Feng Li waved his hand and left with the kind, chubby tutor beside him.
