Versatile Mage: Lord of the Styx, but Lord of the Living

Chapter 212 Upholding Justice, Super-Order Ice-Type Star Palace~
Everyone was stunned!

The kind where they stare at each other wide-eyed.

Even Ai Jiangtu couldn't hold back anymore:

"A commander-level demon? Lu Ran, are you kidding me?"

Even with his high-level dual-element cultivation, he was no match for a commander-level demon!

Not to mention that it was a demon's lair, containing countless servants and warriors, including the Crimson Demon!

Wait, Ai Jiangtu forgot about Lu Ran.

If Lu Ran were to take action, things would be much easier.

Ai Jiangtu was truly convinced of Lu Ran's strength.

But the next moment, Lu Ran spoke, saying:
"This training is on my orders. Whether you participate or not is up to you. But let me make this clear beforehand: I don't want any slackers in the Nationalist team."

"The corpses of the Crimson Demons you killed, and the treasures you looted from the demon's lair, are all yours."

"Consider this your first pot of gold in your training. How about that? As the captain of the National Team, I'm really considering the needs of you team members, aren't I?"

Lu Ran's words sent chills down everyone's spines.

Are they really planning to send everyone to their deaths?
How much is the corpse of the Crimson Demon worth?

Even if you manage to get that first pot of gold, you still need to survive and be alive to enjoy it!
Seeing Lu Ran's resolute and unyielding expression, Ai Jiangtu sighed.

At this moment, he was thinking about whether he could join forces with Mu Ningxue, Mu Nujiao, and Mo Fan, who were also high-level mages in the team, to see if they could kill the commander-level Crimson Rift Demon.

As for the other Crimson Demons, there was no time to deal with them; they had to be left to the rest of the National Team.
"Lu Ran, stop scaring everyone!"

A cold, clear voice came from outside the hall.

Mu Nujiao glanced at everyone and continued:

"Don't worry about your safety. Just hone your skills and teamwork in the battle. If any danger arises, Sister Qin will come to your aid."

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up.

Sister Qin, is she that super-level mage?

Tell me earlier!
If they had known earlier that a super mage would be his bodyguard, they would definitely have been the first to raise their hands in support of Lu Ran, since no one wanted to offend this distinguished captain of the National Government.

Qin Yu'er and Mu Ningxue walked in with Mu Nujiao.

"Does anyone know what cruel things the Crimson Demon of Rock Island did to Asuka City this time?"

Qin Yu'er and Mu Nujiao held several case reports in their hands, and together they recounted the case of the missing baby in Feibiao City in detail.

Upon hearing this, the faces of the Nationalist team members grew increasingly grim.

No one expected that such a tragedy would occur in the seemingly vibrant city of Asuka!
"What is the local government doing?" Jiang Yu couldn't help but curse.

The culprit, 'on the surface,' is Chi Lingyao.

But everyone knows that there must be a 'bad guy's order' behind this!
This instantly ignited everyone's passion, and they stopped thinking about whether they would survive or how many resources they could gain.

Mo Fan and Ai Jiangtu were the first to be attacked, wishing they could immediately rush to the rocky island and slaughter the Crimson Demon's lair hidden there!
"Those who want to go to Rocky Island, come with me!"

Holding a map of Feibiao City, Mu Ningxue gave a shout and led everyone away.

Every member of the National Government team was present, even if it was just for show, but their anger at the fact that the Crimson Demon had abducted the baby was real!

"Lu Ran, you should have explained the reasons to them sooner."

Mu Nujiao felt indignant on Lu Ran's behalf.

It's clearly a matter of upholding justice, so why does it seem like Lu Ran is sending them to their deaths?

Upon hearing this, Lu Ran shook his head and said:

"This matter has far-reaching implications, and even if they find out, it won't do them any good."

"Moreover, Asuka City is my territory, and I will not allow such a terrible incident involving infants to happen again!" "Sending the National Government team to clean up Asuka City, although it is said to give them some experience and training, I also have my own selfish reasons."

Lu Ran also expressed his original thoughts.

It turns out that the so-called "not taking action" was just talk.

If someone really did die on Rock Island, he, as the all-powerful figure in Feiniao City, would have a hard time explaining himself to Pang Lai and Feng Li.

Therefore, one must never die under his watchful eye.

He was prepared to secretly rescue the person.

How much resources the National Army team can gain from this raid on the Crimson Demon's lair depends on their own strength.

After hearing this, Qin Yu'er felt a little sorry for Lu Ran and said:
"Let me take action. I've discussed it with Nu Jiao and Ning Xue. If we encounter danger or are unable to fight anymore, I will annihilate the Crimson Demon's lair!"

Lu Ran sighed and said with a wry smile, "It's just the lair of a commander-level demon. You're a super-level mage. If you take action, wouldn't it make it seem like I have no one to rely on?"

"If in the future, you have to personally deal with any demon kings that suddenly appear from some remote corner, wouldn't you be overwhelmed with work?"

It's really hard to believe that a high-level mage would suppress a ruler's lair.

Just like Lu Ran would no longer feel comfortable going to the main campus of Pearl Academy to play magic games with those students whose cultivation was only at the intermediate level.

That's a demotion.

Qin Yu'er shook her head:
"Asuka City is also my home. How can I stand by and do nothing when something like this happens in my home?"

"Moreover, you are the true owner of Asuka City and this manor."

"If you have to personally handle things like clearing out a leader's lair under your command, wouldn't that be beneath your dignity?"

Qin Yu'er used the same words he had just spoken to refute him, leaving Lu Ran momentarily speechless.

"Okay, okay, it's decided then!"

Immediately, Qin Yu'er summoned her Winged Demon Tool, holding Mu Nujiao's hand on the left and Lu Ran's hand on the right, and flew towards the rocky island.

Rock Island.

Nan Jue activated the Demon Gathering Ritual, and in an instant, a large number of Crimson Ling Demons emerged in droves and attacked the National Government Team.

But the National Guard team was not to be trifled with either; they had come here specifically to slaughter the Crimson Demon.

Should I avoid its sharp edge?
Not afraid at all!

On the rocky island, large swaths of Crimson Demon Blood were spilled onto the ground and rocks.

The mid-level members of the National Government team are responsible for fighting against the servants and the general-level Crimson Demons.

Meanwhile, Mu Nujiao, Mu Ningxue, Ai Jiangtu, and Mo Fan, whose cultivation had reached a high level, were responsible for working together to kill the Crimson Rift Demon, which was at the commander level.

With Mu Ningxue's ice-type domain suppressing them, plus the Flying River Snow Beast, which is also a leader-level beast.

The Crimson Rift Demon was being chased and beaten.

Mo Fan even had a commander-level Fire Cloud Deer that he hadn't released yet.

Above the rocky island, Lu Ran and Qin Yu'er quietly looked down at the battlefield below.

This massacre allowed the Nationalist team to get a general idea of ​​each other's strengths.

By getting them to their proper place, we can avoid unnecessary conflicts in the future.

"It seems I don't need to take action?" Qin Yu'er said with a smile.

Lu Ran scanned the surroundings with his mental power and shook his head, saying, "More and more Crimson Demons are surging over after hearing the Crimson Rift Demon's call. Their magical energy is almost depleted and they can't hold on much longer. Why don't you take action and finish them off as well?"

Qin Yu'er nodded.

High above the sky, Qin Yu'er revealed her figure, like a fairy descending to earth.

Behind her, a magnificent ice palace was rapidly coalescing.
