Full-Time Magister: I can control you to death

"You've grown up," Zhan Kong said with a smile.

"Grow up my ass... Chief Instructor!"

Zhang Xiaohou was about to utter a greeting when he suddenly realized the voice sounded very familiar. He turned around abruptly and, sure enough, there was that familiar, disheveled middle-aged man.

"No, no, no, pull up your pants first."

Zhan Kong quickly stopped Zhang Xiaohou's hug and greeting, took out a crumpled cigarette case from his pocket, and handed it out: "Want one?"

“I don’t smoke. He Yu doesn’t like the smell of cigarettes,” Zhang Xiaohou said with a happy expression.

Zhan Kong paused for a moment, a hint of sadness flashing in his eyes.

"Head Instructor, why did you stop smoking?"

"That's enough." Zhan Kong threw the cigarette butt under his feet and extinguished the flame by crushing it with his toe.

"I remember you were assigned to the Qinling Mountains area, how did you get transferred here?" Zhan Kong asked.

Zhang Xiaohou chuckled dryly; he dared not reveal any secrets.

Zhan Kong looked him up and down a few times, then suddenly said, "Golden Forest Desolate City?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhan Kong saw Zhang Xiaohou's expression change slightly, confirming his suspicions.

"Chief Instructor, you wouldn't also be..." Zhang Xiaohou exclaimed with delight, "That's wonderful! I can finally fight alongside you again!"

The scene of Zhan Kong's decisive battle with Yi Canglang in Bo City left a deep impression on him when he was still a novice mage.

Looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, Zhang Xiaohou resembles the male protagonist in an emo hit music video.

"Fighting side by side, but there has to be a battle to be fought..."

Zhan Kong felt that if he stayed here any longer, his body would definitely get moldy!

Just then, the bathroom door was pushed open again, and the two tacitly stopped talking and looked at the person who came in.

—Then, their eyes widened simultaneously.

"Holy crap, Xu Fang?"

"Brother Fang!"

Xu Fang stood comfortably across a urinal and smiled, "Chief Instructor, Monkey, long time no see."

"You were transferred here too?" Zhang Xiaohou asked in surprise, "What a coincidence! It's just that we're missing Brother Fan, otherwise we brothers would be all here!"

Zhan Kong snorted and said sourly, "Two Military Intelligence Bureau members, plus a champion of the National Games, quite a show of force. I really want to see who this number one is!"

"Oh, I know that." Xu Fang said with a smile, "This person is very strong, handsome, and has an irresistible personal charm. He was once hailed as the dream of girls all over the world..."

Zhan Kong: "..."

Zhang Xiaohou: "..."

Zhan Kong: "The person you're talking about, it wouldn't happen to be yourself, would it?"

"That's right!" Xu Fang clapped his hands and laughed, "It seems the head instructor has a very clear understanding of my charm!"

Zhan Kong: "I have no idea how charming you are, but I certainly know how shameless you are!"

Back in Bocheng, this kid showed his shamelessness. Years of hardship have not only failed to erase it, but have actually made him even more shameless!

Compared to Zhan Kong, Zhang Xiaohou's reaction was much more pleasing, exclaiming, "Brother Fang is awesome!"

Xu Fang laughed and said, "Let's go, the toilet meeting is over. Let's go report to our territory!"

······

Jinlin Wasteland City, Wetland Park.

This place had been deserted for decades, and nature had completely swallowed it up.

The roots of the plant demon broke through the once solid ground, and wild grass grew up to knee height.

There was a rusty car in the grass, its window completely pierced by a thick vine, obscuring the inside, and the sides of the car were covered with moss.

Xu Fang, Zhan Kong, and Zhang Xiaohou squatted on the ground.

"Thank you so much, but I didn't give you anything," Zhan Kong said irritably.

Look at this environment, this is what you call starting from scratch!

Zhang Xiaohou said, "I'll call He Yu and tell her to stay in the Biyi Military Region for now... There isn't even a toilet here."

Xu Fang pointed to the woods not far away: "Just take care of it there. You'll be eaten by the demons in five minutes after you're done. It's clean and hygienic."

Zhang Xiaohou: "..."

While that is true, there's really no need to go into such detail!

Moreover, he had just looked around and found that there wasn't even any toilet paper in the woods... Instead, there was a plant called "firewort" everywhere.

This plant isn't poisonous, but just from its name, you can imagine how incredibly horrifying it would be to use it to wipe your bottom...

"Let me explain the plan first. Within a week, the three of us will demolish this desolate Jinlin City," Xu Fang said.

When it came to serious matters, both Zhan Kong and Zhang Xiaohou became serious.

"Let me tell you my plan."

Xu Fang took out a military map, on which the streets, alleys, ditches and ravines were clearly drawn, and there were several locations marked in red.

This is the result of our recent research.

"These places are inhabited by demons of the commander level. What we need to do is lure them into the city, exhaust their skills, and then kill them."

Demons of the commander level have a strong sense of territory; they will not rest until we are killed if we trespass into their territory.

Zhan Kong and Zhang Xiaohou were both a little dumbfounded as they watched Xu Fang speak eloquently.

Actively attracting demons into the city—that's too cruel!

"Wouldn't doing this have a bad influence...?" Zhang Xiaohou hesitated.

“Alright then, you’re an earth mage, so this important task is entrusted to you,” Xu Fang readily agreed.

"No way! This city is so big, I couldn't possibly manage it even if I worked myself to death!" Zhang Xiaohou's expression immediately turned bitter.

Demolishing an entire city would be a huge challenge even for a high-level mage, let alone a mere high-level mage like him!

"After we demolish the city and destroy the great demon, what will happen to those servants and warriors?" Zhan Kong asked. "Although these beasts are not strong, they are all very good at hiding. What if they run out and hurt people one day?"

"Don't worry, as long as they're in this area, they have absolutely no chance of survival," Xu Fang said with a smile.

"You mean...that?" Zhan Kong asked in astonishment.

"Yeah, that's it."

"Would the higher-ups really approve such a top-tier treasure for us?!"

"Don't worry, I've made a plan, and everything will be perfect."

Xu Fang and Zhan Kong spoke back and forth like they were exchanging riddles, leaving Zhang Xiaohou, who was standing nearby, increasingly confused. He couldn't help but ask, "What... what are you talking about?"

Chapter 365 You bastard! What have you been protecting?

“The essence of the earth,” Xu Fang said.

"what is that?"

Zhan Kong continued, "The most precious treasure in this world is the most valuable gift that nature has given to mankind. Without the enormous energy provided by the core of the earth to support the city's barrier, a city simply could not stand in an era teeming with demons."

Zhan Kong, who came from the Zu family, knew more inside information than Zhang Xiaohou.

Such a treasure could create a spring city in a frigid land, or build an oasis in the desert...

If Bo City and Jinlin City had possessed a Core of Earth back then, low-level demons wouldn't even have been able to step into the barrier's range.

Humans would only need to free up their resources to deal with the demons at the commander level, greatly reducing the pressure and eliminating the risk of city annihilation.

Besides protecting a city, the Earth Core itself contains immense energy enough to push a high-level mage into forbidden spells!

China is a responsible and accountable great nation. In the early days, there were so few forbidden spellcasters because the essence of the earth was supplied to the cities, supporting a barrier outside the lives of hundreds of millions of people.

Later, after the Siren Dynasty invaded, cities fell one after another, and the Essence of the Earth was recovered one by one to create forbidden spell mages.

These forbidden spells lived up to expectations, taking the lead in the battle of Shanghai and standing in front of many terrifying emperors!

Zhan Kong said, "I admit that the Earth Core can indeed eliminate demons... but the problem is, why would the higher-ups approve such a treasure for us?"

"I already told you I have a plan, you'll find out later."

Xu Fang spread the map out in front of him: "Now, let's begin!"

······

The sun sets in the west, and the setting sun is like blood.

Xu Fang arrived near an artificial lake. In the center of the lake was a rockery. With the afterglow of the setting sun, Xu Fang could see the rockery rising and falling evenly.

"These days, even demons are cosplaying?"

Behind Xu Fang, golden stars connected one after another, with layers of transparent ripples surrounding them.

"Audio track!"

The chaotic sound waves entered the artificial lake, and the next moment, the lake water seemed to boil violently as if it had been heated.

"Boom~~~~~~~~~!!!!"

Beneath the lake, a roar powerful enough to shake half the city suddenly erupted!

The sound was very close to Xu Fang, like a thunderclap that suddenly appeared next to his ear and was forcibly shoved into his head!

After the roar, suddenly the flat ground in the center of the artificial lake rose up from the ground!

The demon emerged from the swamp and rose into the air, revealing its enormous body hidden deep beneath the swamp. It was so massive that it could stir up a monstrous wave in this desolate artificial lake!

The so-called island in the middle of the lake slowly began to tilt as the black creature stood up. When the black creature was fully upright, the flat ground was revealed.

Where was the flat ground? It was clearly this guy's back!

The powerful black body looked down at the ant that had disturbed its sleep and slapped it directly.

Whoosh!
