Full-Time Magister: I can control you to death

After finishing his drink, he looked at the Insect King with lingering interest.

Although the Insect King is ugly, its drinking method is much more elegant. It rotates its body around the bottle a few times, slowly touching the water surface with its long tentacles, allowing the energy to slowly seep into its body.

As you can see, its body is slowly expanding.

“Buzz~~~~~”

The Insect King let out a low hiss, and several poisonous insects flew out. They were all powerful generals under the Insect King, each with the strength of a warrior general.

The Insect King set aside some of his share to improve his subordinates.

"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee."

El Niño felt somewhat ashamed, looking at the bare bottom of his glass and glancing guiltily at Xu Fang.

"It's alright, you can eat by yourself," Xu Fang comforted him.

The energy of the Time Liquid is enough to elevate both of them to a dominant level; what they need is a process of digestion and absorption.

It could be a few days, or it could be a few months.

A new training mission for the Nationalist Army has been announced: a joint effort by China, Japan, and India to wipe out the Red Ornament Guild active in the Caribbean.

After this experience, some members will be eliminated, and new members will be added.

If nothing unexpected happens, Mu Ningxue will take this opportunity to return.

Just as Ai Jiangtu and Nan Jue were discussing strategy on behalf of the National Government team, Xu Fang received a phone call from China.

"Uncle Jiang?"

Xu Fang was quite surprised to hear that it was General Jiang Dajun who called.

"There's something very important I need to tell you," Jiang Chong said seriously.

Xu Fang's attitude also became serious: "General, you speak."

"Lin Jiaming, do you still remember him?" Jiang Chong asked.

Xu Fang paused for a moment, then found the name in his memory.

Lin Jiaming, captain of the Forbidden City Army's Demon-Slaying Squad.

Back then, Lin Jiaming found Xu Fang and left him a purple bead, through which Xu Fang obtained the power of the purple demon cloud.

In the years that followed, Xu Fang never saw Lin Jiaming again, nor did he ever hear any news about Lin Jiaming again.

Now, Xu Fang heard this name from Jiang Chong's mouth once again.

"Back then, after the Parasitic Dimension Exploration Project was halted, Lin Jiaming's Demon-Slaying Squad was also reorganized and assigned to different locations."

After the Shanghai Scaled Demon Mother incident, these people were investigated to varying degrees, and Lin Jiaming was among those investigated.

Jiang Chong said, "During the investigation, Lin Jiaming's attitude was extremely bad and he refused to cooperate with the investigation. Although it was eventually proven that he was not involved in the heinous incident, he was dismissed from his position in the Military Intelligence Bureau as a result."

Xu Fang recalled for a moment.

Lin Jiaming's image resurfaced in his mind.

At that time, Xu Fang was only a mid-level mage, and his ice magic had just entered the mid-level realm. Lin Jiaming's Soul-Capturing Mind Control and Night Domain gave Xu Fang a small high-level shock.

"Lin Jiaming has disappeared."

Jiang Chong's voice held a hint of anger: "After the chaos in the ancient capital ended, we discovered that Lin Jiaming had disappeared during the inventory of personnel."

"After investigation, it was found that he had stolen the controlled purple beads. The inspectors who were investigating him also died unexpectedly, and traces of parasites were detected on their bodies."

"Later, during the Chongming Island incident a while ago, our people discovered Lin Jiaming's whereabouts again and followed this trail to determine his route."

Xu had a guess in mind, but still asked, "What is it?"

"South America."

Jiang Chong said seriously, "Strictly speaking, it's you!"

"Lin Jiaming, we are currently tracking you down!"

"He went through Black Court, and through Mo Fan in your team, all to find you!"

"We don't know his specific purpose yet, but Lin Jiaming has lost the honor and faith of a military mages. His mentality is very extreme!"

“I have contacted the local embassy, ​​and our people are on their way and will meet you as soon as possible.”

Xu Fang took a deep breath and nodded: "I understand."

Lin Jiaming was already a high-level mage a few years ago; it's unimaginable how powerful he is now.

It would be a lie to say you wouldn't panic if you were being targeted by someone like that.

However, passively waiting was not Xu Fang's style. Having made up his mind, he approached Ai Jiangtu.

Chapter 289 Lin Jiaming's Demonic Assault

Seeing Xu Fang appear before him yet again, Ai Jiangtu interrupted before he could speak, saying, "Are you asking for leave again?"

"Huh?"

Xu Fang was taken aback: "Old Ai, when did you become a tapeworm?"

Ai Jiangtu: "..."

He was already speechless when it came to Xu Fang.

With a serious expression, Ai Jiangtu said, "Xu Fang, you have left the team multiple times, which is absolutely not allowed in principle!"

Xu Fang's obedient face: "Mmm!"

"During our last call, my mentor repeatedly emphasized that we must always act as a group, especially during training activities, and everyone must be present!"

"Uh-huh!"

"Even if you disregard my feelings and ignore the instructor's repeated orders, the rewards for this training are quite generous! A cloak-like magical artifact gifted by a forbidden spell mage—do you really want to miss it?"

Ai Jiangtu was extremely worried about Xu Fang, and before she was even 25 years old, she was already showing signs of becoming a "male mother".

The purpose of this joint operation was to wipe out the Red Ornament Guild in the Caribbean.

The Crimson Guild is no ordinary thief; they were originally a fallen mage guild established in the Caribbean, and their power was so great that it was equivalent to a magical family.

They have over a thousand mages, with an average strength reaching the mid-level, and many of them are high-level mages.

These people used the resources and money they plundered to cultivate new members, forming a complete family chain!

Even with the support of the Temple of Liberty mages, this operation remains extremely dangerous.

As the captain, Ai Jiangtu knows best how big the gap is between the National Team with Xu Fang and the National Team without Xu Fang!

"I've already thought about it."

"The mentors won't agree. You should talk to them." Ai Jiangtu was at his wit's end. In his mind, Feng Li would probably give Xu Fang a good scolding and then force him to participate in this training.

But to his surprise, the message from Feng Li was that his departure from the team had been approved.

"Mentor...would you like to reconsider?"

On the phone, Ai Jiangtu hesitated for a moment before speaking.

He worried that the mentors, in their anger, were speaking ironically and kicking Xu Fang, who liked to act on his own, out of the group.

"What are you thinking about? Let him go if he wants to. He just needs to report back to the team as soon as he's done." Feng Li said, "I have other things to do here, so I'll hang up now."

"guide···"

Ai Jiangtu stared at the phone that had been hung up, and his head began to throb again.

······

Waiting idly wasn't Xu Fang's style. After taking leave, he disappeared into the crowd.

The streets are deserted, but the sound of music can be heard. Will-o'-the-wisps drift into the deep forest, their light reflecting on the green moss.

The Xu Fang who reappeared was completely different from the one before.

His dazzling blond hair was covered by a large hat that was common in the area, and the magical fluctuations on his body were concealed by the deathly aura of his armor.

The Americas are a melting pot of cultures, so Xu Fang looks perfectly natural walking down the street.

A small tavern.

"drink!"

"Fill it up, it's on me today!"

"Don't stop using your chopsticks...don't stop using your knife and fork!"

In a small private room, a group of people were eating with their mouths full of oil, looking as if they wanted to eat the plates off.

“These people are all petty thugs in this area. Their families either gamble or smoke flour. In short, no one cares about them.”

A man dressed fairly neatly spoke to Xu Fang in an international language that the thugs eating there couldn't understand at all.

Xu Fang nodded: "I will pay you the reward first. In addition, I will also give you the reward for these guys. You can help to send it to them."

The man's smile immediately blossomed.

As expected of the most sensible Chinese, they even describe taking a cut and exploiting others in such a refreshing and elegant way.

"Don't worry, these thugs may not be very capable, but they can keep an eye on one person without any problem."

"Send signals when you have information, and avoid direct confrontation."

"Don't worry, don't worry, we've even kept an eye on mid-level mages!" The man patted his chest with considerable pride.

Xu Fang nodded and didn't say anything more.

To resolve the problem of Lin Jiaming peacefully, the first thing to do is to find him.

Jiang Chong had already sent over a recent photo of Lin Jiaming. Compared to his memory, Lin Jiaming's eyes were more sinister, his cheekbones were high, and his eye sockets were deeply sunken.

Why go after thugs instead of the local hunter alliance?

Is there any reliable local government department?!

If they were even slightly reliable, they wouldn't have done something as foolish as having hundreds of bandits worth only a few million, nor would they have allowed the Red Ornament Guild to run rampant in this area!

Thugs are different; they'll do anything for money.
