Full-Time Magister: I can control you to death

"No doubt about it, the Commander-in-Chief mentions him every day, the entire military knows about him!"

"Damn it, is this a declaration of sovereignty?"

"In this real world, besides being a bit more handsome and stronger than me, what else am I lacking?"

An overwhelming sense of envy, jealousy, and hatred nearly overwhelmed Xu Fang.

The chief of staff's red envelopes weren't very big, the largest being only one hundred yuan, just for good luck.

······

After dinner came the gala. Unlike the formal performances, there was no order of precedence, and it didn't matter whether the singing was good or the dancing was good or bad. You just had to be willing to go on stage.

The commander watched from below, and everyone was like peacocks displaying their plumage during courtship, vying to get to the front and show off. Even the shy ones were egged on to go up on stage.

Xu Fang sat comfortably below, being fed all sorts of snacks and fruits by Jiang Shaoxu like a devoted wife, while Jiang Chong pretended not to see it.

Everyone was filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred, and it was unclear who started the commotion.

"Xu Fang, give me one!"

"If I tell you to sing, then sing! This fussing and hesitating is unacceptable!"

"Everyone quack, quack!"

Xu Fang swallowed the grapes, surprised by his popularity, but didn't refuse, and went on stage with great interest.

"This is a song I wrote myself, and I wanted to dedicate it to all my new comrades today." Xu Fang smiled warmly and innocently: "This song is called 'Green Flowers in the Army,' and I hope you all like it."

What malicious intent could Xu Fang possibly have towards his love rival?

"The cold wind blows, leaves fall... the army is a green flower~~~"

My dear comrade, don't miss home... don't miss your mother~~~

The other chapter will definitely be posted before 6 PM; I need to organize my thoughts on the ancient capital.

Chapter 229 The Abyss of Fiends! The Abyss of Fiends!

Looking at Xu Fang singing passionately on stage, and then at the new recruits covering their mouths and sobbing uncontrollably, Jiang Chong felt several black lines slowly descending on his forehead.

That vindictive brat...

A magical world is not an artistic wasteland.

The Scaled Demon incident occurred at the concert of idol girl CuCu.

These new recruits, having already left their homes and undergone rigorous, grueling training day after day, were at a sensitive emotional stage.

Not to mention, Xu Fang's singing had an inexplicable power to move people, making them bow their heads and cry, cover their faces and cry, and hug their comrades and cry...

In short, tonight's gala will not be held.

The instructor, who rushed over upon hearing the news, was at his wits' end and could only instruct, "Arrange for everyone to call home later... and have more shifts scheduled for tonight."

He was too embarrassed to explain it too clearly in front of the Chief of Staff and the General Staff.

To put it bluntly, they're afraid the person will run away.

The recruits' emotions were clearly abnormal; they were afraid that if they got carried away, they would desert, which would be bad for everyone during the New Year.

Xu Fang stood obediently, like a blooming white lotus flower with the aroma of tea.

"You brat." Jiang Chong gave him a disgruntled look.

Xu Fang feigned ignorance: "I'll just sing a song..."

"Using sonic magic to sing?"

"Wow! As expected of your uncle, nothing can escape your discerning eyes..." Xu Fang's cheesy words came out without hesitation.

"Stop, stop, stop."

Jiang Chong felt uncomfortable from the praise, especially the amused expression on Fatty Feng's face, which made him feel incredibly ashamed.

Jiang Shaoxu chuckled to herself, thinking how well her boyfriend and father got along.

Just then, the guard in the distance received a phone call and ran over quickly: "Commander-in-Chief, it's a call from the Chief Instructor of the Flying Horn Training Center of the Lintong Military Region."

Jiang Chong took the phone, and as he listened, his expression gradually became serious.

"What's wrong?" Chief of Staff Feng asked.

Jiang Chong said in a deep voice, "A Fiend Abyss has appeared in Xianchi, and a rescue team has been trapped inside!"

······

Xianchi is a place name, a depression on the northern foothills of the Qinling Mountains bordering the ancient capital. It is a land with very little vegetation and soft soil.

Whenever a gentle breeze blows, it stirs up fine white sand on the ground…

These white fine sands are actually the powder that turns from bones exposed to the wind and sun, and they look like salt sprinkled on the ground.

The name comes from Xianchi (咸池).

Now, Hamchi has disappeared, replaced by a dark abyss.

The screams of the corpses exploded in the cave like thunder, and the earth hummed in response.

If someone were standing around the pit and looking down at this moment, they would definitely see the most terrifying scene of their life—in the pitch-black abyss, pairs of scarlet eyes crowded together, greedy, hungry, and ferocious.

In the dim light, countless bodies and limbs were wriggling inside.

Thousands!

Ten thousand!

They were piled up together, layer upon layer, corpses covering each other, corpses crowding each other, like a mountain of corpses, making one's scalp tingle with disgust!

This is the Abyss of Evil, a true hell on earth!

"Sha Yuan? Why would something like this appear!" In the recruit camp, Chief of Staff Feng stared wide-eyed, his eyes filled with disbelief.

The Abyss of Death is a true hell, filled not only with extremely dense corpses, but also with an endless aura of death.

This deathly force is so immense that it can influence spacetime and achieve the terrifying effect of spatial travel!

Anyone below the level of the forbidden spell who falls into the Abyss of Evil will undoubtedly die.

Even Chief of Staff Feng himself was not confident that he could leave Sha Yuan unscathed.

"Recently, the ancient capital has been plagued by undead cholera, and the Qinling demons are also stirring." Jiang Chong's voice was cold and sharp: "Report this to the Forbidden Spells Council. If necessary, we must act in time."

The Abyss of Calamity is a natural disaster, and the Forbidden Spellcaster is also a natural disaster in another sense.

A forbidden spell could very well wipe out demons, the undead, and the life force of this land.

If they want to take action across regions, they must go through the approval process of the Forbidden Curses Association.

Chief of Staff Feng nodded: "That's good. The Xianchi area is sparsely populated. If Sha Yuan moves towards the Qinling Mountains, the Qinling demons will fight it. If it moves towards the ancient capital, with Han Ji and Lu Huan there, it can hold out until we provide support."

For thousands of years, the ancient capital has coexisted with the spirits of the dead, and has its own set of ways to deal with them.

For the Central Army, the threat of the undead was far less than that of the demons of the Qinling Mountains.

The Qinling Mountains stretch from the Kunlun Mountains in the west, through Longnan and southern Shaanxi, across the east and west of China, dividing this land into northern and southern halves.

The two forbidden spells of the Central Army are both guarded here, and have not dared to be used lightly for many years.

In the view of Jiang Chong and Chief of Staff Feng, although Sha Yuan was troublesome, it was not a threat to the emperor.

Perhaps a lord of the dead will use the death energy of the Abyss to gather undead to attack the city, but with the existing strength of the ancient capital, it will definitely hold out for one night.

“The tide of the dead will naturally recede as soon as it gets light. A whole day is enough time for the Forbidden Spell Council to make a decision,” Jiang Chong said.

"What if the tide of the dead doesn't recede?"

Xu Fang suddenly spoke up.

When Jiang Chong discussed the matter with Chief of Staff Feng, he did not deliberately avoid him.

"How could that be? In the past thousand years, no spirit has ever been able to appear during the day." Chief of Staff Feng shook his head, thinking that Xu Fang was being delusional.

Jiang Shaoxu also secretly tugged at Xu Fang's clothes, telling him not to interrupt on such a serious topic.

Jiang Chong stared at him and said, "Tell me your thoughts."

“A few months ago, I was invited by Nan Jue, an officer of the Western Army, to go to the northern corner of Zhuoyuan to search for the Fire Calamity Fruit.”

Xu Fang said, "The reason she sought me out was because of the inexplicable riots at the gateway to the northern corner of Zhuoyuan—the Sha Wang River, which the frenzied elemental creatures could not suppress even with mind magic."

After returning, I specifically asked her to find out what kind of evil energy caused the riot, and her answer was: "The Abyss of Evil!"

Ordinary people, including Nan Jue at the beginning, believed that the riot was caused by the flames of heavenly tribulation.

But Xu Fang understood that what truly made the entire Sha Wang River tremble with fear was actually the infernal furnace of Sha Yuan!

"The first time, Sha Yuan appeared on the Gobi Plain, at the western end of the Sha Wang River."

"This is the second time that Sha Yuan has reappeared, this time in Xianchi."

Xu Fang took out his phone, found the China Map, and connected the two locations with a line.

As he extended one section, Jiang Chong and Chief of Staff Feng's expressions changed simultaneously—the ancient capital was right on this line!

“I come from Bocheng, and I like to consider any so-called natural disaster from the perspective of man-made disaster.”

Xu Fang's voice wasn't loud, but it sent chills down one's spine.

"If, and I mean in the worst-case scenario, Sha Yuan's two displacements were not accidental, and his true target was the ancient capital, then everything would seem to make sense."

"You mean, someone used some means to lure Sha Yuan?" Jiang Chong asked, instinctively feeling that the statement was absurd, but his heart tightened inexplicably.

What if it's true?

"Back then, Black Court used the Fountain of Fury to bring rain, causing a riot among demons. Could this time, the undead's agitation be for the same reason?"

Xu Fangping held up his phone; the information on it sent chills down his spine.
