Versatile Mage: I have a proficiency panel

Chapter 56 Leaving the Team
The two Blue Valley ferocious beasts were extremely violent. They each held onto a stone building, and with brute force, they pulled it up from the ground, then lifted it above their heads and threw it out suddenly with astonishing power!
Bai Jue watched with great interest as the people from the national government surrounded and killed the two commanders. It felt like he was fighting crickets. Occasionally, when there were problems in their coordination, he would use telekinesis to protect them. This was another exercise for controlling his mental strength.

……

Located near the high embankment in Donghai City, a towering cylindrical building is particularly eye-catching. Even though it is several blocks away, it still feels like it is shrouded in the towering stone building.

The government troops arrived here and followed the instructions to find the people who were going to receive them. The two commanders were eventually worn down by them. Almost everyone was injured and they just wanted to find a place to rest quickly.

The receptionist was a manager of the Magic Association. He took everyone to a 400-square-meter suite with more than a dozen rooms for them to choose from.

This man is not good-looking, but judging from the badge hanging on his chest, he should have a high position in the Magic Association.

"This room charges a fee. If you don't have money, you can pay with demon gall. Anyway, there are few wizards who come to Donghai City to make a fortune at the risk of their lives... But I heard that the two commander-level creatures that appeared this time were killed by you?" The man's eyes showed a hint of awe for the strong.

"With this record, you can directly pass the review of the Magic Association in Japan and become a district team."

"Block district team?" Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"…Maybe the agent forgot to tell you. Let me explain it to you first. If you have any questions, ask me again." The man let out a breath slowly.

"The East Sea City Fortress is divided into thirty-two blocks. Each block has about thirty narrow roads, six wide roads, and one main street..."

After some explanation, everyone in the government finally understood what was going on. To put it simply, their mentor had them sign a contract to sell themselves to him, doing nothing more than hard labor.

"Oh, your team leader also asked me to tell you that you should be promoted to a four-star team as soon as possible during your time in Donghai City. If you fail to do so, the things promised to you will be taken away by other countries..."

"How is the four-star rating determined?" Ai Jiangtu asked.

"Defense, monster killing, rescue, charge or special operations, if you perform well, someone will naturally record your achievements. It is similar to the Hunter Alliance's rating of hunters. The number of monsters killed and the bounties completed are counted as accumulated points. When you reach a certain number, you will be promoted."

Most mages understand the rules of the Hunter Alliance, and no mage dares to say that he is very rich.

When they are short of money, there is no wizard who has not accepted a bounty, whether it is going out to hunt monsters, escort, collect, survey, rescue, patrol, whatever can make more money.

Apparently, the rules of Donghai City are very simple and crude. If we use farming as an analogy, a respected landlord will first contract a piece of land, and then hire some farmers who specialize in treating rats, wild boars, and pests to cultivate and protect the land. One high tide counts as one harvest, and all the harvest belongs to the landlord. After the settlement, the farmers will be paid their wages!

After understanding the situation, the man left. Before leaving, he reminded everyone that there would be a high tide the day after tomorrow, and they should put on their combat uniforms and prepare for the battle. "The Japanese are really good at playing. They built this Great East Sea battlefield, became the owner of the sea field, and contracted each area to more trustworthy individuals, allowing them to operate independently. The Japanese government collects rent and also collects all the abundant "seafood" at a low price. The army and the magic association retreat directly to the second line. Those who died were those who wanted to make a fortune from the war, and the mages who sold themselves to kill monsters. Money and resources flowed into their pockets continuously." Zhao Manyan was most sensitive to this kind of playing with power and business, and immediately sneered.

After hearing what Zhao Manyan said, the others nodded heavily.

Killing monsters and guards, and charging into battle are basically the responsibilities of individual mages, and in order to get more money, other mages will surely work harder. The Japanese government is responsible for maintaining order and making rules, and then it can just hide behind the high embankment and count the money.

"Where is our captain? Why is he missing again?" Mo Fan looked around, searching for Bai Jue.

"We are the only ones doing this training. The instructor thought that our training journey would be too smooth with the captain, so he let him go freely."

…………

The tide kept rising, exposing a piece of muddy and sandy land from the initial distance of a hundred meters away from the low embankment. Gradually, the sea water hit the low feet, and each impact became stronger. The sound of the waves was like a roar, and the waves were like a rainstorm!

Different from the ancient city’s way of fighting along the walls, the existence of the low dike is purely a boundary, representing the battlefield that follows.

The Japanese did not completely keep the tide out of the city, nor did they prevent the sea monsters hidden in the raging waves from entering the city. There were no guards on the entire low embankment that was like a mountain ridge. They all retreated to the high embankment and formed a long formation!
The high embankment is the real marine defense line of Edo, Japan, as tall as a mountain screen and as strong as steel.

The original Donghai City was divided into thirty-two blocks. There were several mages standing on the roof of the buildings in each block. Looking down from a height, the number of these mages was equally astonishing...

The tide is definitely not the original tide of nature. The most turbulent tide that ordinary people have seen only rises to a height of more than ten meters. Standing under the waves of more than ten meters high, you can feel the insignificance of human beings.

And the wave that is attacking the city at this moment is the demon tide that has been chanted by countless sea monsters. Its rolling height can easily pass the short embankment at the front, and it is more like a blue and white giant tongue, trying to destroy this sea city. Wrapped in the belly of the sea!
The rumbling sound was enough to rupture the eardrums. Some Japanese wizards were shouting loudly. Judging from their expressions, this tide must have exceeded their original estimates. Even the formations they had set up had to be temporarily changed.

The seawater flooded into the city, and the raging water also carried with it the broken parts of the buildings. The block numbered after 16, the closest to the low levee, had not even had time to fight back when all the buildings in the block were severely damaged. Some collapsed directly, some broke in half, some tilted and collapsed, and some were crushed by the tilted buildings...

The sea is full of wreckage of houses. It would be less painful if the waves hit your body, but if these things were mixed in the sea water and flew towards you, the power would be doubled.

Bai Jue strolled on the high embankment at the back, his senses spreading towards the sea. He wanted to find a sea monster monarch to test his strength!
