Versatile Mage: Thunderstorm

Chapter 137 Unexpected Ambush and Reinforcements
Compared to the time they came, the three people and one beast were much faster on their return journey. Under Lingling's guidance, they easily avoided the large group of White Magic Eagles until they approached a forest next to the West Fortress.

The defense line of the Western Fortress was now covered and surrounded by the White Magic Eagles that blocked out the sun. Any unit passing through the air would be severely attacked by the White Magic Eagle Legion. Therefore, the original plan of the three was to sneak into the fortress from the ground through the mountains and forests.

However, just before Wang Xiaojun was about to command the Grey Eagle to land, Ye Mo suddenly spoke up.
"do not move!"

Ye Mo's voice was filled with caution.
"Don't go down, let the Gray Eagle ascend, something is wrong down there."

Wang Xiaojun and Leng Qing followed Ye Mo's line of sight and looked down, but found nothing. However, out of trust in Ye Mo, they continued upwards even though they would easily reach the attack range of the White Demon Eagle.

Afterwards, it seemed that Ye Mo's suggestion worked. In the shadow of the forest below, a team of several mages suddenly appeared in the sight of the three people. The old man with a goatee and an ugly expression in the lead made Wang Xiaojun and Leng Qing feel a chill in their hearts.

"That should be Councillor Luo Mian. Shouldn't he be participating in the defense of the fortress? Why is he here?"

Ye Mo didn't know the culprit of the plague, but Luo Mian's unusual whereabouts made him, as a military man, feel strongly uncomfortable.

Soon, he was glad for his caution, because the deputy chief judge Leng Qing said angrily beside him:

"Deputy Guard Captain, this Luo Mian is the culprit of this plague. Because of his corruption, problematic blood passed inspection and flowed into the market, causing this plague. If there was evidence, the Inquisition would have arrested this old man long ago."

"So that's it, he is the scum."

Ye Mo did not doubt Leng Qing's report. Luo Mian's current behavior was extremely suspicious. If such behavior was given a suitable motive, it would be understandable.

"But how do we get there now?"

Wang Xiaojun asked anxiously.

The presence of Councillor Luo Mian below has blocked this safe path, but forcing their way through the dense cluster of White Magic Eagles above is also a life-threatening situation. At this moment, they are in a dilemma.

Hearing this, Ye Mo and Leng Qing looked at each other in silence, and both saw the answer from each other's eyes.
“At this point, this is the only thing we can do.” Ye Mo said.

"indeed so."

Leng Qing nodded.

Immediately, Ye Mo instructed Wang Xiaojun:

"Let the Grey Eagle fly to the West Fortress at the fastest speed. Don't worry about anything else."

"Deputy Judge Leng and I will do our best to protect your safety."

Wang Xiaojun opened his mouth wide and stared. Above them was the White Magic Eagle Legion. Not to mention the slave-level White Magic Eagles, there was no shortage of even the general-level ones. If they attracted the attention of one or two four-clawed magic eagles, they would all be doomed.

As if seeing through Wang Xiaojun's thoughts, Ye Mo smiled and patted his shoulder.

"I am a high-level cultivator of the three elements of light, earth and wind. I may not have a very strong offensive ability, but I definitely have no shortage of defensive means."

"Boy, do as you are told. Councillor Zhu Meng said that you must be brought back safe and sound."

Leng Qing also echoed Ye Mo and said:

"The commander-level four-clawed magic eagles are all attracted to the front battlefield. As long as we are fast enough, we can quickly break through the obstacles formed by these slaves and general-level white magic eagles."

After both of them said so, Wang Xiaojun also nodded vigorously. Just as he was about to give an order to the gray eagle under him, he suddenly felt a fierce fist coming towards the sky from below. Without any orders, the gray eagle immediately flapped its wings to avoid it.

Due to the long distance and timely evasion, the Fierce Punch did not cause much damage, but Ye Mo and Leng Qing's faces looked extremely ugly. Ye Mo even shouted directly:

"Run as fast as you can!"

Then he directly drew a star map, and golden and khaki lights appeared one after another.

"Guang Yu protects me!"

"Rock Rock Shield!"

The elemental shield blessed by the two mid-level spirit seeds was deployed in less than two seconds. The heavy defense seemed indestructible, but it did not bring the three people any sense of security. The reason was that thanks to the powerful Fierce Fist just now, the attention of all the White Magic Eagles around was drawn to the battlefield below that they had never noticed before.

"Luo Mian is such a bastard! He didn't even want us to go back alive."

After Ye Mo cursed, he spread his wings of wind and jumped off the Gray Eagle. He also gave the Gray Eagle a gust of agility, making the Gray Eagle's movements lighter and faster.

Seeing a large group of white devil eagles swooping down with bloodthirsty eyes and flapping wings, Ye Mo and Leng Qing began to display their magical powers.
"The light is falling!"

As Ye Mo finished speaking, golden light filled the sky and formed hundreds of golden swords around him. Then, the swords emitting a sacred aura turned into a rain of swords and directly pierced through the attacking White Demon Eagle in front, and the road ahead was suddenly empty.

"Sky Flame Funeral!"

A rain of blue flames streaked across the sky, covering the surroundings. The flames landed on the feathers of the White Magic Eagle and instantly ignited, turning the White Magic Eagle into a charred corpse that fell into the boundless mountains and forests below. Perhaps it was the effect of the flames, even in the sky, the dots of flames were still burning, turning the sky into a sea of ​​fire.

"Rush over!"

The two high-level magic spells directly cleared all the obstacles ahead, but there was also a disadvantage. The huge noise of the high-level magic could easily attract powerful demons. Within sight, more than a dozen general-level white magic eagles led their subordinates to charge towards the crowd.

At first, they did approach the direction of the West Fortress by several hundred meters, but soon, the interception team that appeared in front of them made the three of them look gloomy. "Councilor Luo Mian, what do you mean?"

Ye Mo said in a deep voice, secretly cursing himself for being stupid. As a congressman, he was in a high position and had great power. Even if he didn't have wind magic, how could he lack winged magic tools?
In addition to Luo Mian, there were three high-level wind mages in the team blocking the three people, and they were looking at them with murderous eyes.

In response to Ye Mo's question, Luo Mian just laughed coldly a few times. The old man who was usually kind in front of others completely tore off the mask of disguise, and his whole body exuded a chilling aura.

"Deputy Guard Chief Ye Mo, Deputy Chief Judge Leng Qing, you only have two choices now. Hand over the space bracelet containing the Eagle Red Grass and declare your loyalty to me. Then I will let you live and even help you to move to a higher level."

"otherwise……"

"Haha, you can try to see if my curse system can make you live a life worse than death."

As if to make his threat more convincing, Luo Mian only gave a look, and the surrounding White Magic Eagle was frightened so much that it lost consciousness on the spot, its cries stopped abruptly, and it stopped flapping its wings and fell straight down.

Ye Mo's heart sank immediately. He thought that he could rely on his nearly super-level cultivation and the forbidden techniques he had mastered to sacrifice himself and fight his way out. However, he did not expect Luo Mian's curse system to be so powerful. Just a simple primary magic, the Haze of Fear, could directly clear the area within 200 meters around him.

As a pure elemental magician, he was at a huge disadvantage when facing black magic, not to mention that he was far behind in level.

Just as Ye Mo and Leng Qing stood in front of Wang Xiaojun, ready to die, the voice coming from the communicator made them laugh. This strange smile was caught by Luo Mian, who immediately gave the order while thinking that something was wrong.

"Deal with them and grab the bracelet."

At the critical moment, Luo Mian didn't care about maintaining the dignity of a big shot, and took the lead.
"The Evil Spider's Trap!"

The scarlet spider web spread out, and the trap that was about to devour three people was about to engulf the three people. The necklace on Leng Qing's chest lit up, and a translucent shield formed around the three people, blocking the spider web outside.

Seeing that the Evil Spider Trap was not working, Luo Mian raised his hand and drew the constellations.

"Ghost punishment!"

A hideous ghost shadow floated behind the three people. With Luo Mian's movements, the ghost shadow turned into a knife and axe, waving the sickle to reap the souls of the three people. Violent ripples appeared on the translucent passport. Luo Mian was delighted and increased the output of his mental power.

At this time, the constellations of the three subordinates behind him were also drawn.
"Thunder of annihilation!"

"Frozen coffin!"

"Water bloom canopy!"

Beams of lightning shot out, two ice coffins fell from above, and a huge waterfall of water rushed down, penetrating the mental shield and heading straight for the vital points of the three people. The huge momentum and terrifying magical aura made Wang Xiaojun, who saw this scene for the first time, feel weak in the legs and couldn't help closing his eyes.

Ye Mo refused to give in.

"Wind-hiding territory!"

In an instant, all the wind elves within a radius of several hundred meters were under his control, and the power of the three powerful elemental magic spells was immediately reduced by 30%.

"The light is falling!"

The third-level light fell across the sky, and countless lightsabers turned into shields, forming a thick barrier around them.

"boom!"

The impact of lightning and water magic made the light wall full of cracks, but it was still strong and did not break. The ice coffin falling from the sky dealt the final blow to the light curtain. After the crumbling light curtain shattered, a water element shield emerged without warning, blocking the ice coffin outside and instantly freezing the smiling faces of the few people.

At this time, Leng Qing's Sky Flame Funeral was also ready. Under his deliberate control, the endless rain of fire was concentrated on the three high-level mages behind Luo Mian. Lacking any means of defense, they hurriedly dodged and urgently summoned magic tools to resist.

Without waiting for them to continue to cast magic attacks, Leng Qing used a mental shock on the spot, causing one of them to have a splitting headache and breaking the star track. With the bonus of the domain, Ye Mo quickly formed a wind disk and bypassed Luo Mian to attack the remaining two people. The latter had to give up the high-level magic they were preparing to dodge.

"Asshole! Trash!"

Seeing his three men in a panic under the cooperation of Leng Qing and Ye Mo, Luo Mian could not break through this seemingly fragile mental shield in a short time. He cursed and did not care about saving time. He drew a shadow magic with his backhand.
"Si Ye Rules!"

The darkness instantly enveloped the three people. Even Ye Mo's domain was suppressed by the endless darkness. Even so, Luo Mian still did not stop. He raised his hand in the Shadow Star Palace. The star tracks formed a star map. The seven star maps formed a constellation. The seven constellations condensed into a star palace.

"The Dark Execution Ground!"

The original Si Ye rule was just a prelude. The real killer move was the super-class magic dark execution ground formed on this basis. The executioner emerged from the dark realm and was about to chop the three people in the next second.

Ye Mo and Leng Qing were also anxious, throwing out all kinds of defensive magic tools like water shields, light shields, rock barriers...

However, these defensive magic tools that were powerful enough to easily resist high-level magic were as fragile as tofu in front of the executioner. They broke through the two people's defenses and finally stopped an inch in front of Ye Mo who was at the front.

The executioner disappeared, and the dark execution ground also disappeared. The moment they saw the light and the young boy and girl again, Ye Mo and Leng Qing collapsed directly on the back of the gray eagle.

Wang Xiaojun's grey eagle was indeed strong-willed. At the slave level, it did not fail in the face of high-level battles. It was also thanks to Luo Mian that he did not target this inconspicuous grey eagle at the beginning, otherwise, it would be hard to say whether they could hold out until the reinforcements arrived.

As for the reinforcements...

Ye Mo laughed at himself.
"We came here to implement a hidden danger strategy, but in the end we were saved by the totem we were about to kill."
