Full-Time Mage: Double Return, Niu Ma Mo Fan

Chapter 111: Aren't your babies going to be a month old in a couple of days?

After leaving the arena, Meng Qiuzhen and Mo Fan specifically sought out Ding Yumin.

After giving Meng Qiuzhen a once-over, she put the honeymoon aside and asked instead:
"So you're not planning to participate in the nomination competition anymore, and you're going to the ancient capital now?"

I remember there was a very serious undead uprising there, wasn't there?

"It's said to be extremely dangerous now, with even mid-level mages dying in the wilderness at any moment. And you still want to go? And you're even inviting me to come with you?"

Ding Yumin had a lot of questions in her mind. The two of them had bright futures ahead of them, so why did they have to go to the ancient capital now?

And to actually take her, a girl, on an adventure, that's so unmanly.

"Yeah, let's go to the ancient capital now and practice the God-Locking and Spirit-Sealing Array. Do you want to come? If you want to have fun, we can go on a honeymoon before returning to Shanghai. Anyway, you're not involved in the nomination competition."

Meng Qiuzhen will reveal his true purpose.

He wanted to cause trouble for Zhan Kong and the entire Undead Empire, so the testing ground was naturally set in the ancient capital.

In the original story, Zhan Kong donned the armor of the Ancient King, thus becoming the Ancient King Zhan Kong, who commanded the entire Undead Empire.

However, the drawbacks are also obvious. This ancient king is just a trial card, and it's only a matter of time before the evil spirit in the armor completely corrupts Zhan Kong.

This is also why Zhan Kong entered the Holy City later. On the surface, it was because Qin Yu'er was being held hostage, but in reality, he wanted to get rid of a necromancer emperor for humanity.

The inanimate and the living cannot coexist; the dead and humans are inherently irreconcilable enemies.

The Soul-Locking and Spirit-Sealing Array was specially designed for Ding Yumin, but it also had another purpose: to be used on Zhan Kong, or rather, to deal with the evil spirit in the armor!
Therefore, he wanted to invite Ding Yumin, the spiritual researcher, to go with him.

Although she didn't understand formations, she understood the mind and spirit, and that was enough.

"Wait for me a moment, I'll go back and pack some luggage."

When it came to the matter of the great formation, Ding Yumin accepted Meng Qiuzhen's invitation without hesitation.

The grand formation has reached the experimental stage, and Ding Yumin is even a little happy about it.

As for her previous questions about how dangerous Gudu was, she had long since put them out of her mind.

"Fuck!!!"

After Ding Yumin walked away, Mo Fan exclaimed in surprise.

"Old Meng, are you two progressing so fast? You're even willing to take this kind of risk with you! Is your baby going to be a month old in a couple of days?!"

Mo Fan was utterly shocked!
He didn't remember the fire-element beauty being so easy to talk to!

But once he met Meng Qiuzhen, he kept talking non-stop. More importantly, he agreed to go to the ancient capital full of ghosts without hesitation. This is the kind of relationship that shows true friendship in times of trouble!
"Do you think I, the most handsome man in Shanghai, am just for show?"

"Alright, I'll let you pretend this time."

Mo Fan refrained from refuting, after all, he needed the other party's help. Being number one handsome was fine; he could be second. As for Zhao Manyan, he could obediently go to third place. Hmm, that made perfect sense.
……

Shanghai Airport.

"Here, take this. But be careful when you go to the ancient capital. I heard it's dangerous there. There's a small battle every day and a major battle every three days. Commanders and monarchs have appeared. Don't die, or I'll take a share of your estate."

Feng Susu handed a black box to Meng Qiuzhen, her tone showing concern but not stopping him from doing so.

Countless people are now fleeing the ancient capital. The chaos of the dead has caused too many deaths, and some predict that this is the most terrifying disaster in thousands of years!
Some say it's just some thieves exaggerating, but even the best hunter mages who returned from there are unwilling to talk about anything related to the incident. Zhu Meng, the proposer of the hidden danger strategy, has personally visited the site, and the military mages have been frequently mobilized, all of which indicate that this matter is not unfounded.

"Hehe, you still owe me forging attempts, how could I possibly die?"

Meng Qiuzhen took the black box and put it into the Yin-Yang diagram.

This is a special magical artifact that he specifically instructed Feng Susu to prepare, which can be used in conjunction with the grand formation.

It's a very crucial thing.

Ding Yumin was dressed in combat gear, looking clean and efficient.

She looked Feng Susu up and down, and felt a strange mix of emotions about Meng Qiuzhen's flirtatious and promiscuous behavior. In any case, she just didn't like it.

"Old Meng, we're too late! There are no more flights to the ancient capital!" Mo Fan rushed over anxiously.

"Is that so? It seems we have no choice but to resort to the last resort. Let's fly over there!"

……

The Pearl Academy was in an uproar today.

The nomination debate that happened this morning has spawned countless versions circulating both on and off campus.

Amidst the turmoil, many are eagerly awaiting the final rankings in this nomination battle.

Only a few people familiar with the situation knew that these two rising stars would not appear in any more matches; they would soon leave Shanghai for the ancient capital, where people were still filled with unease. "What are those two kids up to?"

Dean Xiao stood up from his seat after receiving the news.

Meng Qiuzhen won all three of his first three games and was named MVP in all three.

Mo Fan also won three matches, his record being only slightly worse than Meng Qiuzhen's.

Based on this trajectory, both of them would definitely have been eligible for nomination and would have been able to join the National Team in the future.

But now, Mingzhu's two rising stars have left without a word, skipping the fourth game, rushing to the ancient capital where the undead calamity is breaking out.

What is going on!!!
"Have they left Shanghai? If not, intercept them."

Dean Xiao made a decision: it's fine to want to gain experience, but there's no need to choose such a difficult instance at this time.

"I'm afraid it's too late."

"Logically, there are no more flights to the ancient capital now, but that kid Meng Qiuzhen has a commander-level Flame Sparrow. Someone has already sent back intelligence that they are flying towards the ancient capital."

Qiu Yuhua put down the communicator and said with a helpless expression.

Young people are great in every way, except they're too impulsive.

"Sigh, I hope they can return to Mingzhu alive. It doesn't matter if they're missing an arm or a leg, as long as they come back alive." Dean Xiao sighed.

"Oh, by the way, that kid Meng also took Ding Yumin with him this time," Qiu Yuhua said, revealing this little-noticed detail.

"That kid always manages to do things that are completely unexpected."

"I don't think Meng will die, but he'll probably cause trouble. We should prepare to clean up his messes in advance."

Dean Xiao: "."

……

An ancient capital, shrouded in a hazy night.

The ancient capital city is divided into inner and outer cities.

The outer city walls were extremely high, enclosing the city like an iron barrel.

A cold wind blew from afar onto the outer city wall, carrying the smell of rotting earth, which the guards called the smell of death.

The towering city walls stretch across this land, as if severing the black earth in the middle. But if you look down from above, you'll see many people moving back and forth inside the walls, while outside the walls, many more figures wander aimlessly...

Black, velvety clouds rolled in, low and heavy, pressing down on a flat, gloomy land. Nourished by the rain of death, all life flourished. One after another, unknown creatures crawled out of their deep-buried graves, scanning the world with their green eyes.

Suddenly, the wandering undead sensed the presence of living beings and rushed towards the ancient city at an incredible speed!

"Ahhhhhhh!!!! Ahh ...

"Roar!! Roar!!!!"

Their black bodies, from a distance, resembled a group of refugees rushing towards food. But when they gathered in dense numbers, transforming into a rotting flood that crashed against the city walls, their ferocious faces and hungry eyes sent chills down the spines of countless mages!

"Oh no! There's a commander-level corpse subject!!!"

"That army of undead includes commanders! It's going to attack Anjie!!!"

"Quickly! Call the Military Intelligence Bureau!!"

The undead army is endless, but Anjie is not a turtle shell with inexhaustible energy.

Especially for powerful undead, the consequences would be unimaginable if they were to get close to the safe zone and create a breach.

The call for help came quickly, and the support arrived even faster. In just over ten seconds, the first high-ranking military intelligence officer had already arrived at the city wall.

"That aura is definitely above that of the junior commander. This is troublesome!!!" The high-ranking military commander stared at the terrifying figure not far from the outer city wall, his face grim.

If the opponent were only at the level of a minor commander, he could still rely on Anjie and the mid-level military mages to restrain it and ensure that it could not cause damage to Anjie. However, the opponent's strength is obviously too great now, and once they fight, there will definitely be a lot of casualties!

The high-ranking military intelligence officer hesitated, but his actions were subconscious decisions.

I've already started constructing advanced constellations!
Fighting is his duty, and death is a constant companion; he has long since developed a fearlessness of death.

Just then, with his exceptional eyesight, he spotted a crimson dot in the distant sky, hurtling towards the ancient capital at an extraordinary speed!

Don't ask him how he knew it was fast; it's simply because the point of light was constantly magnifying in his pupils!
