Full-Time Magister: I can control you to death

At first, it was just a slight and barely perceptible tremor, like a soft sigh from the earth.

But soon, the tremors became more and more intense, shaking the entire town!

The originally solid foundation and stone road slowly softened, as if eroded by some kind of earth magic, gradually losing their original hardness and shape.

The building's foundation began to shake, and cracks appeared in the walls. These cracks then spread rapidly, as if alive, until the entire building began to crumble.

"Whoosh—!"

Sensing the approaching danger, people rushed out of their homes, running around in a panic, and a large group even knelt in front of a sculpture.

That sculpture is so ugly that you might doubt it's performance art. No wonder King Kong is glaring angrily; he's probably furious at this thing.

rustling sounds...

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the ugly sculpture was transformed layer by layer, piece by piece, into fine sand!

A strange wind blew by, and to everyone's astonishment, it swept towards the sea and was swallowed up by the waves!

"Even the gods can't protect us?"

"Hehehe, okay, okay, I'm going to the Pure Land!"

"In my next life, I definitely want to taste what red wine and steak taste like."

despair.

It was filled with despair.

Right now!

"Whoosh!!!"

The sharp, piercing sound seemed to tear through everyone's eardrums as a transparent, colorless arrow hurtled towards them.

Bang! ! !

The shattered arrows actually created a chaotic sound field, and the residents covered their ears in pain, still feeling waves of sound being poured into their heads!

—That's why they didn't notice that the ground that had fallen and turned into sand had become stuck!

"Your guess was right after all." A clear, girlish voice rang out, speaking in a foreign language that they couldn't understand.

But that kind of vibrant energy, even just by listening, is something that doesn't belong to their Ligu County.

They stared blankly as two figures walked past them, the young man among them seemingly oblivious to their presence as he manipulated a water sphere to float in the air.

Click...

The water sphere slowly frosted over, eventually becoming a translucent ice ball with a diameter of three meters.

The ice hockey puck is decorated with beautiful and gorgeous snowflakes, which will fall down with a rustling sound if you just shake it.

But if you look closely, you'll suddenly get goosebumps all over your body.

虫！

They're all bugs!

A bug as big as a cat!

Groups of slow-moving, transparent, monstrous insects, vibrating only from the residual sound strings, were twitching!

“This is the culprit,” Xu Fang said, using his mind to wake one of them up. As soon as it woke up, it struggled desperately.

They offered the siren flesh and blood, but she wouldn't eat it.

We don't eat from desertified land.

Steel and concrete, let's eat!

Rock fragments, eat them!!

Eat, eat, eat the city defense materials taken from the Hidden Star!

The transparent worm was extremely happy. Although it was confined to a cold place, many wonderful things that it would never have dared to dream of appeared automatically in its mouth.

That abundant energy made the insect's body feel warm and very powerful!

Little did it know that the more it accepted all comers, the more dangerous the gaze of the kind person feeding it became.

"Dishi, eat it." Xu Fang said in a deep voice.

“If this thing gets to our coast, it could destroy eighty percent of the dikes,” Lingling said.

Oh, the embankment!

In the absence of Earth Core, this is almost the best material that coastal cities can choose!

Xu Fang squeezed hard and crushed the transparent, strange insect that was happily eating the embankment stone.

"Solving the strange insects in this sea area is not the problem, but the problem is whether they exist in other sea areas? Have they mutated? Have they invaded the inland areas along with the rising sea levels?"

The more Xu Fang talked, the more he felt like a giant hand was squeezing his heart.

He never expected that something he had intended as a political task to help Speaker Shao Zheng's election campaign would uncover such a terrifying secret.

This strange insect is more terrifying than even monarch-level or emperor-level demons.

No matter how strong the latter is, at least there are traces to follow. The strange insect is different; neither the mage nor the dolphin can be traced at all.

If Xu Fang remembers correctly, this thing seems to be called the Dragon King Ant.

"I'll wipe you all out first, then find your damned lair!"

Low key?

Such a terrifying thing appeared, go to hell!

"May the heavens protect you!"

The cry of a divine bird!

The golden phantom of the dragon-phoenix, carrying supreme majesty and peace, slowly took shape from the void.

Its wings spread out, each feather shimmering with dazzling light, as aggressive as the blazing sun piercing through the dark clouds after a storm.

"Holy Secret!"

The chanting of magic reached its climax, and a vast power of light surged forth from the dragon sparrow's body. They intertwined and entwined, eventually transforming into countless sharp swords that floated in the air!

"No one can escape."

The little ghost fire has already added all the Dragon King Ants present to the King of Hell's roll call.

The light was as dense as a net, like ten thousand sharp arrows fired simultaneously, piercing the ocean below.

Tsh tsh...

The ocean turned golden, golden blood, golden waves mixed with the blood of countless Dragon King Ants!

"What do we do now?" Lingling asked Xu Fang.

"Report this to the authorities and immediately investigate whether these things exist along the coast. If we can kill these beasts, we can use any means necessary!" Xu Fang said.

All means.

Including forbidden spells.

Under the forbidden magic, the sea area, after being cleansed and "purified," is so clean that low-level demons like the Dragon King Ants cannot survive, let alone cross it!

Alternatively, we could find the mother of the Dragon King Ant and slaughter this wicked creature until nothing is left!

······

Xu Fang made a grand display, and the residents of the surrounding counties and towns, as well as the ambassadors and high-ranking officials living in the inner city, all saw the huge pillar of light that pierced through the sky.

The mournful cries coming from the sea made them instinctively shrink back in fear.

The news quickly reached the Asian Magic Association, sparking a heated debate.

Meanwhile, the person at the center of the argument was studying some murky white substance on a public beach with a little girl.

“Look here.” Lingling reached out, dipped her hand in the sea salt, and smeared it on the back of her hand, holding it up to the sun. “This sea salt is colored.”

The two men discovered the colored sea salt in a wetland where dragon ants had gathered; the sun's rays had dried the seawater in the hollowed-out area into sea salt over the past few days.

“I’ve seen this kind of sea salt in the Hunter’s Notes. It’s formed because there are salt crystals in a certain place where the waves are eroding in this direction. After being constantly eroded by the seawater, the seawater becomes rich in this salt. After being exposed to the sun, it turns into this seaweed green,” Lingling said.

When professional knowledge is mentioned, her bright, sparkling eyes gleam with wisdom.

Xu Fang picked up several of the Dragon King Ant corpses and used sound analysis to measure them carefully: "The salinity of their body fluids is many times higher than that of ordinary seawater, even exceeding the maximum solubility."

“These so-called bodily fluids are equivalent to the blood of the Dragon King Ants, which are used to support bodily functions!” Lingling added.

Dragon King Ants require a large amount of salt for their bodies.

Because seawater is rich in salt, it becomes their perfect natural breeding ground.

However, the salt content in ordinary seawater is still limited, which is why they are driven by instinct to gnaw at rocks, sea stones, and concrete dams!

"I remember Dean Xiao has a water circulation array. Could we set up a freshwater barrier in the open sea?" Xu asked unconsciously.

"How can it be!"

Lingling immediately denied it: "To conjure up that much fresh water all at once, unless that person in Antarctica intervenes, and the cost of constructing a water cycle array is too high; most cities cannot afford it!"

"Then let's start with the Dragon King Ant's natural enemies!" Xu Fang said. "Since these things haven't multiplied to the point of being everywhere, it means there must be hostile or even restraining races. Let's see if we can tame these races!"

"Then let's go find the Dragon King Ant's nest!"

Lingling said, "We'll find these guys if we find the place with the highest salt content!"

······

Gujarat.

This is a long stretch of coastal mudflats from Kachi Bay to Cambay Bay, with a history of sea salt production spanning over 2,300 years, accounting for 70 percent of the total sea salt production in Bharat.

Like Regulus District, a treasure trove of aquatic resources, residents of Gujarat are also not allowed to enter the land and sea dikes.

“There are several factories over there.” Xu Fang sniffed and detected a slightly pungent odor.

"It should be a potion, right? Barat's imitation potions are quite famous," Lingling said.

Although it's called a factory, it's actually just a small workshop when you get closer.

As dusk approached, the factory remained brightly lit, with many shirtless night shift workers still at work.
