Full-Time Magician: Demon Mage

Chapter 266 The Shadow of the Pyramid

Dongfang Lie felt a surge of anger rush to his head. How could this bastard get all the good things? Looking at the figure in front of him who walked with such a swagger, he clenched his fists tightly.

The Nationalist team set off again towards the city of Pushini, but the timing of this training exercise was somewhat ambiguous.

It's a distance of over 200 kilometers, but it only takes one or two hours by car to get there. By the time we arrived, night had already fallen.

Unlike the bustling metropolis, Pouchini still retains the appearance of an ancient city-state, with most of its buildings constructed of stone.

Hotel lobby.

All members of the National Government team have gathered here. Nan Jue is in charge of collecting information and is currently introducing what happened in Pushini City.

"This is the information I just gathered: a small pyramid mirage has appeared outside the city of Pushkin."

"The duration of a typical mirage is affected by sunlight, and most only last about half a day."

"But the pyramids are different. As cities of the dead, the area within a hundred kilometers around the pyramids is considered the territory of the Egyptian dead."

"The current city-states in Egypt are all located more than 200 kilometers away from the pyramids. There are no territorial disputes between the two sides, and they maintain peaceful coexistence."

"There is only one exception: a mirage. It can suddenly appear near human cities, and the dead will be drawn to it and gather in the vicinity."

"With the blessing of the Swamp of the Dead, the mirage will gradually break free from the influence of sunlight, and its duration will be greatly increased."

"During this time, the undead will launch attacks on nearby human cities, because in their limited understanding, humans have invaded their territory."

"If it's just one phantom, that's fine, but if several appear at the same time, then the city will basically be overrun by the undead."

"Once the sun's rays have removed their influence, special magical instruments are needed to quickly dispel the mirage so that the spirits will leave."

"These are the types of undead that have appeared so far. You can take a look."

Nan Jue distributed the information in her hand to each member present. The information contained a list of the more threatening undead.

"Impressive! You've almost figured out the cause and effect in such a short time," Jiang Shaoxu exclaimed with a smile.

With this general information, everyone was no longer flying around aimlessly like headless flies, and they had a general idea of ​​what was going on.

"The threat of the undead should lie in their numbers. Currently, the types of attacks are all slave-level and warrior-level undead mummies?" Jiang Yu looked at the data and quickly discovered the hidden doubts.

"That's not necessarily true. That's all the information we've gathered so far. Even if there are commander-level mummies, their numbers should be limited."

"The army has been stationed five kilometers outside the city, in the outer area. The city of Pushini is about thirty-five kilometers away from the pyramid phantom."

Nan Jue further explained that this information was obtained through online searches and inquiries with local magical institutions.

Jiang Shaoxu chuckled softly and said, "I think I understand the significance of this experience now!"

"This sudden incident appears to be a training ground for various teams, just like the battle at the Tokyo Sea."

"The pressure of offense and defense will be even greater, but since it is a small pyramid phantom, the possibility of a monarch-level undead appearing should not be too high. The commander-level is the main target."

"No matter what kind of demon it is, once it reaches the monarch level, its intelligence should be quite high. It cannot be attracted by mirages and illusions. It is more likely that it is sleeping inside the real pyramid."

"Of course, this is just speculation. If we advance to the vicinity of the pyramids, we still need to be careful."

"According to Nan Jue, the pyramids are cities of the dead, and the dead will protect them. Therefore, the highest combat power will definitely not come out easily, but will guard the vicinity of the pyramids."

"The pressure we face is a large-scale magical legion war centered around the slave-level and warrior-level undead hordes."

Upon hearing this analysis, the others nodded in agreement, agreeing that this kind of experience was acceptable to them and that the danger was within a manageable range.

"We've analyzed the situation pretty much, so what should we do?" Zhao Manyan was also very interested in this kind of battle, and with his defense, he didn't need to worry about his life being in danger.

Mo Fan understood. Since the fighting had already started, they might as well join in. "Just charge straight in!"

"Hmph~ That's what uncultured people are like." Zu Jiming seized the opportunity to mock again. He had rarely ridiculed his opponent since the latter was promoted to a regular team member.

One reason is that my own ability doesn't allow it, and the other is that the opponent is no longer a substitute.

But even after so much time has passed, he hasn't done nothing. He had already equipped himself with the magic control device back in America, so he has naturally returned to the top tier.

It's as if no one can cast high-level magic.

"You should be more considerate of others. After all, not everyone can think like us." Guan Yu pretended to be blaming Zu Jiming, but his mouth was wide open in a smile.

"Hahahaha...yes, yes, yes~" Zujiming laughed loudly and nodded in agreement.

"Idiot!"

"If you want to die, just say so, and I'll grant your wish!" Mo Fan's anger surged when he saw these two people speaking in such a sarcastic tone.

"See? You're getting impatient again. Don't worry, I won't fight you right now. I'll just sit here. If you want to make a move, go ahead."

"Don't think you're the only one who can unleash high-level magic; now we can too! The Venice Tournament, with its current rules, won't stop me from taking the stage!"

Zu Jiming said with an unfriendly expression. It was unclear whether his resentment was directed at Mo Fan or at the mentor team, or perhaps both.

Guan Yu glanced at Mu Ningxue and noticed that the other woman seemed to look at her with disgust. Her heart sank, and her hatred for Mo Fan surged.

Seeing this, Mu Tingying smiled with great satisfaction. At least she wasn't fighting alone anymore; it would be even better if they started fighting directly.

Nan Rongni, standing to the side, had a wandering gaze, seemingly lost in thought.

"Heh~ You've gotten smarter, you seem to have grown quite a bit, you know how to use the rules to fight me, it's a pity you realized it too late."

Mo Fan scoffed, thinking that if he provoked them, they would attack directly, but he didn't expect them to actually have a brain.

He couldn't just attack without the other party retaliating, as that would give them an excuse and an opportunity.

With the World University Competition approaching, he now has a clear goal, and Mu Ningxue also needs to use the competition to make a name for herself and wash away her stigma.

"Go ahead and gloat all you want. The World University Competition is just around the corner. Let's see how long you can keep gloating."

After Mu Tingying finished speaking in front of Mo Fan, she looked at Mu Ningxue with malice. A person who had been expelled from the aristocratic family was no longer of any value.

The items on the other party also need to be retrieved, but that's no longer something she needs to worry about.
