Versatile Mage: Invincible from the Fire of Disaster

Chapter 24: Set Program
Seeing Lin Ming's determination as he walked out, Jiang Shaoxu was a little stunned.

Isn't he afraid of death?

However, this seems to be good.

"Wait! I want to go too!"

Jiang Shaoxu immediately stood up and followed Lin Ming.

"It's not safe to be alone. It seems that the demon can only control one person! I'll have to take care of him when the time comes!"

"Row."

Lin Ming nodded.

The two returned to the place where they had just been.

The small butterfly with a black eye pattern on its body was still flapping its wings, and nothing seemed to have changed.

The previous prey ran away, and it is waiting for the next prey to come.

"Do you feel something is strange?"

Lin Ming watched the little butterfly from afar and said to Jiang Shaoxu with some doubts.

"What?" Jiang Shaoxu asked.

"This is the Qinling Mountains, and feather monsters are everywhere. There are so many war general-level feather monsters that they are like wild dogs on the roadside. It can only control one target at a time. What if two or more feather monsters come at once? What will it do?"

Just now, he took Jiang Shaoxu away because of other situations. Otherwise, after knocking Jiang Shaoxu unconscious, he could easily kill this demon whose physical strength was not even as strong as that of a slave in seconds.

"Then give it a try!"

Jiang Shaoxu thought for a while and said.

So the two of them left the place.

Not long after, they brought over a general-level feathered demon.

There is no need for forced control. Jiang Shaoxu only needs to use the mind system to lead the warrior-level feather monster in this direction.

The general-level feathered demon flew into the attack range of the phantom butterflies without any defense.

The group of phantom butterflies slowly flew towards the War General Feather Demon, and the War General Feather Demon swooped down towards the group of phantom butterflies without any hesitation!

"Violent!"

The sharp chirping sound did not affect the group of phantom butterflies, which just slowly floated towards the feather demon!
Sure enough, the feather demon's cry suddenly stopped!

It began to slow down, and then slowly fell to the ground.

The phantom butterflies slowly floated onto the feather demon's head.

"Fire Fist!"

The next moment, a scarlet flaming fist slammed towards the feathered demon, and even the group of phantom butterflies on its head were enveloped in it!

"boom!"

Flames burst!

The general-level feather demon screamed and flew into the sky!
The feathers all over its body were almost charred black, and a terrifying heat wave soared into the sky as the feather monster flew!

The group of phantom butterflies turned into ashes and disappeared on the spot.

Time passed minute by minute, and the feather demon had already fallen under Lin Ming's fierce fist, while there was no movement from the group of phantom butterflies.

Finally, after a long time, another group of phantom butterflies flew over, and it felt no different from the previous one.

"In 20 minutes, new Phantom Butterflies will arrive to replenish us."

Lin Ming frowned slightly.

They were not looking for enemies, and from Lin Ming's observation, the group of phantom butterflies seemed to be flying according to a certain pattern, and would only attract their attention if a creature approached.

It feels like some kind of programmed process!
Thinking of this, Lin Ming picked up a stone from the ground and threw it at the group of phantom butterflies!

The stone flew past the group of phantom butterflies, but the group of phantom butterflies seemed not to sense it and continued to fly along their own route.

"Only living things can be sensed?"

Lin Ming frowned slightly, then threw out a demon-slaying tool from his space ring!

The demon-slaying tool was thrown on the ground, immediately attracting the attention of the phantom butterflies!
A group of phantom butterflies slowly flew over, stopped in front of the demon-slaying tool, and then froze.

Maybe you want to control it but find there is no way!
"Is it sensing through magical energy?"

Lin Ming thought, but is this a bug in the Phantom Butterflies?

"Try to lure another feather demon over here."

He said to Jiang Shaoxu beside him.

Jiang Shaoxu immediately understood his behavior and left to look for the feather demon.

Soon, another feathered demon was attracted by Jiang Shaoxu and flew to the side of the group of phantom butterflies.

But what was strange was that the group of phantom butterflies didn't seem to react at all, and just sat there being eaten by the feather monster.

"go!"

Lin Ming immediately waved to Jiang Shaoxu.

After saying that, the magic shoes on his feet appeared and he ran quickly towards the inside of the forest!
There were no more Phantom Butterflies appearing along the way, as if that one Phantom Butterfly was responsible for this entire area.

"Violent!!!"

Suddenly a sharp sound broke the silence of the forest!

A patrolling feathered demon suddenly flew up from the treetops!

"hidden!"

The situation was urgent and there was no time for overthinking. Lin Ming immediately hugged Jiang Shaoxu and opened the shielding ring in his hand!

Lin Ming stared at the patrolling feathered monster and found that there was a small phantom butterfly standing on the monster's head!

The patrolling feather demon circled in the air, found nothing, and returned to the treetops.

Lin Ming sighed and let go of Jiang Shaoxu.

"Why are there still patrolling feather monsters here?"

Jiang Shaoxu said to Lin Mingdao with a slightly blushing face.

"Our area is the lair of the patrolling feather monsters. Their leader, Moshan Yujun, is one of the two monarchs. Therefore, there are a lot of patrolling feather monsters in this area. It's not surprising that they are controlled."

Lin Mingdao.

After walking a little further, they saw more and more feather monsters. However, the division of labor among these feather monsters was very clear. All those responsible for monitoring were patrolling feather monsters. Taking this opportunity, Lin Ming and the others successfully saw the huge white cocoon in the center!

The giant white cocoon kept expanding and contracting like a heart, with many phantom butterflies dancing around it. Many feathered monsters also flew outside, bringing back some prey from time to time and placing them on the giant white cocoon.

However, among so many monsters, there is a group of people who are very conspicuous.

The dark green clothes were already a little tattered, and there was no light in his eyes. He kept dismembering the prey brought by the feather demon and delivering it to the front of the giant cocoon.

"found it!"

Lin Ming said with some surprise, but when he saw the looks of the military mages, he couldn't help but pursed his lips.

He didn't know if there was still hope of rescuing them. He also didn't know why Jiang Shaoxu escaped from control. It might be because he was knocked unconscious, or it might be because he had just been controlled, so it was easier to release him.

"The formation disk seems to be on him."

Jiang Shaoxu suddenly pointed at one of the men in military uniform, who was wearing a white space ring on his hand.

That was the formation plate that Li Juntong gave him to store before he set off.

"Violent!"

With a sudden scream, a commander-level Tongshan Feathered Eagle circled in the air, dropped its prey, and then flew away again!

The feathered monsters kept coming in and out, bringing back prey and leaving again, and groups of phantom butterflies were hovering around the giant cocoon.

Everything seems to be programmed, and the giant white cocoon in the middle is the computer that controls everything.

The inspectors of this program were the patrolling feather monsters, but Lin Ming bypassed them.

However, the phantom butterflies hovering around the giant white cocoon should not be underestimated. They will definitely be noticed if you get close.

This place is full of demons. From time to time, a commander-level demon will fly in, and the terrifying pressure affects the two of them.

Lin Ming took a deep breath and looked at the military mages in front of him.

No matter what, we must get that space ring.

　I feel a little uncomfortable because of the writer's block. I feel that the plot is a bit mediocre.

　　Next, we'll pick up the Bo City storyline, and a large portion of the storyline will likely be based on the original novel, including the ancient capital and the academy. After all, I personally feel that these two areas are the most exciting in the early stages of the game. However, there are still many opportunities in the Qinling Mountains. This is laying the groundwork for the opportunities that will be gained later, reaching the level of Forbidden Spells, which will be covered later.
