Versatile Mage: I was reborn as Mo Fan

In the command center, the holographic projection clearly showed the movements of the Siren Empire. The scarlet spots of light looked like a surging sea of ​​blood, approaching the Demon City at an alarming speed.

Hua Zhanhong's eyes swept back and forth between the screen and everyone's faces. The atmosphere was so solemn that it could squeeze water out of it. Everyone knew that the next decision would directly determine the fate of millions of people in the Magic City.

"Everyone, the Siren Empire is coming with great force. We must finalize a strategy as soon as possible." Hua Zhanhong's voice was deep and powerful, breaking the suffocating silence in the room.

In an instant, the conference room exploded, everyone held their own opinions, and heated arguments broke out one after another.

The burly Wei general Zhou Yan stood up and said in a loud voice, "Commander Hua, I firmly advocate taking the initiative! The base city of Modu has just been rebuilt. If the sea monsters are allowed to march in again, the city will suffer immeasurable damage. We have a powerful mage army, and Mo Fan has returned. Why don't we take the initiative to meet the enemy and kill them by surprise?"

"Absolutely not!" Staff Officer Lin Yuan pushed up his glasses, his eyes showing caution behind the lenses. He immediately said, "The strength of the sea monsters is unfathomable. This time, several empires have come, the scale is unprecedentedly large, and there is a powerful cold moon eyed demon god in charge. If we attack rashly, we are likely to fall into their trap and cause heavy casualties. I suggest that we focus on defense, relying on the strong fortifications of the Magic City to consume the sea monsters' manpower."

"Defense? Can defense alone solve the fundamental problem? Are we going to stay in the city forever and let the sea monsters provoke us at will?" Another general, Wang Meng, slammed the table hard, causing the documents on the table to rustle. He glared at the defensive team and said, "We are responsible for protecting the Magic City. Only by taking the initiative can we effectively combat the arrogance of the sea monsters!"

"Taking the initiative to attack is too risky! Once the attack fails, not only will the troops be lost, but the sirens will become more rampant. By then, the Demon City will be in danger!" Lin Yuan raised his voice and retorted.

Everyone was arguing with each other, faces red and ears red, and no one was willing to give in.

Hua Zhanhong listened quietly to the heated debate among the crowd, his expression becoming increasingly solemn, and he repeatedly weighed the pros and cons of active offense and passive defense in his mind.

He knew very well that no matter which of these two strategies he chose, it would be accompanied by huge and unpredictable risks.

However, the Siren Empire was already at the gates of the city, and time was running out, leaving him no room for hesitation.

"Zhou Yan, I'll give you a team of people. Do you dare to go and try it out?" Hua Zhanhong asked, staring at Zhou Yan with sharp eyes.

"Of course!" Zhou Yan responded without hesitation, his voice loud and firm.

In the eyes of others, facing an unknown number of sirens, leaving the safe defense circle is undoubtedly seeking death.

But for Zhou Yan, who has been through many battles, there is nothing to be afraid of, especially in such an epic battle!

Make great achievements and go down in history!
If defeated, die on the battlefield!
"Wang Meng!" Hua Zhanhong shouted immediately.

"I'm here!" Wang Meng perked up, and his face, which had flushed red during the argument, was now full of seriousness.

When Hua Zhanhong called his name, the general who had been arguing the loudest just now quickly stood up.

Hua Zhanhong ordered in an orderly manner: "You are responsible for the support. If the situation is not right, immediately take Zhou Yan to evacuate. If we can test the strength of this sea monster, we can consider a full-scale attack!"

"Yes!" Wang Meng responded loudly, his voice echoing in the command center.

"Chief..." The defensive staff officer Lin Yuan couldn't help but speak, trying to stop the action.

However, Hua Zhanhong raised his hand and interrupted what he was about to say next.

In this passive situation, proactively seeking opportunities to fight is a top priority.

Although Zhou Yan and Wang Meng's styles of action were somewhat reckless, their views were not without reason. Seeing this, Staff Officer Lin Yuan sighed slightly and said nothing more.

Obviously, he was not optimistic about this arrangement. In his opinion, letting a troop rashly test the Siren was like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth, which was no different from sending oneself to death in vain.

Zhou Yan and Wang Meng acted quickly and began to assemble the team.

They selected elite mages and carefully checked the magical equipment to ensure that there were no mistakes.

At the same time, the atmosphere in the command center became increasingly tense, and everyone was closely watching the movements of the Siren Empire and the actions of Zhou Yan and Wang Meng.

"Let's go!" Zhou Yan gave an order, and a large group of mages filed out and flew towards the direction where the Siren Empire was coming.

"Zhou Yan, you must be careful. If you can't find out clearly, you must save your life." Hua Zhanhong muttered again before he set off.

"Don't worry, chief!" Zhou Yan responded solemnly.

After all, he is a general who has experienced many battles, so he is certainly not completely brainless.

He is more aware of the purpose of his life, which is far greater than just dying.
The next moment, a winged demon appeared behind them, and its figure gradually became smaller in the sky and soon disappeared from everyone's sight.

Wang Meng followed with the support troops.
Time seemed to be frozen. There was deathly silence in the command center. Only the ticking sound of the magic clock on the wall could be heard, and every tick struck everyone's heart.

Everyone held their breath, staring at the communication crystal, anxiously waiting for news from Zhou Yan. The air seemed to freeze.

Suddenly, a signalman stumbled in, his face pale: "Report! The scouts ahead sent news that there are many powerful waves of demonic power surging in the Siren Empire. It is suspected that there are no less than dozens of Siren monarchs. Moreover, the Siren has discovered them, and the two sides are engaged in a fierce exchange of fire!"

Hua Zhanhong's face instantly turned livid, his eyes quickly turned to the real-time monitoring screen, and without hesitation ordered the dedicated communication device: "Wang Meng, go to support immediately! At all costs, ensure the safe withdrawal of Zhou Yan and the others!"

If dozens of Siren Kings were entangled, this team would undoubtedly be wiped out.

"Yes!" After receiving the order, Wang Meng led the support troops to rush towards the battlefield like an arrow.

At this time, on the front battlefield, Zhou Yan and his troops were in a desperate situation.

The sirens are like a black tide, constantly emerging from the deep sea, and their numbers are so large that it makes people's scalp tingle.

These sirens have various shapes, some are as huge as mountains, some are small but agile as lightning. They emit sharp and piercing roars from their mouths, one after another, interweaving into a symphony of death.

The sirens cast strange magic, pouring down on Zhou Yan's troops like raindrops.

Zhou Yan's face was solemn as he commanded the mages in an orderly manner to put up a tenacious resistance.

For a moment, magic light flashed wildly in the sky, various elements collided violently, and the explosion was deafening.
