Full-Time Magician: Demon Mage

Chapter 395 Waiting for the Rice to Cook

Both Zhu Meng and Jiang Shaoli found Wang Teng's plan of action unbelievable, and even thought that he was being delusional.

Others had similar thoughts to varying degrees, but only Wang Teng and Mo Fan were present. However, as the chief, Pang Lai was naturally able to understand some of these things as well.

The atmosphere seemed to quiet down, and everyone's eyes were fixed on Pang Lai and Jiang Shaoli.

One was the chief councilor of the Former Palace, and the other was the chief military officer representing the military; only their speeches carried weight.

"Shao Li, what do you think?" Pang Lai looked at him calmly.

When Jiang Shaoli heard Pang Lai's question, he did not respond immediately. He was also thinking about the matter. On the surface, the plan seemed a bit far-fetched.

There might be some relationships involved that he didn't quite understand, and Pang Lai's reaction was what made him reconsider.

The other party seems to think that communicating with Old Wang is a feasible plan?

If that's the case, then the feasibility of this plan would naturally be very high, and it would also avoid everyone facing the Pharaoh directly.

Even as a Chaos-type forbidden spell mage, he was apprehensive about fighting an emperor, not because he was afraid of death, but because he feared that death would be meaningless.

The significance of a forbidden spellcaster lies not only in their ability to handle thorny issues, but also in their deterrent power; even without doing anything, they possess unimaginable deterrence.

Having no sword to use and having a sword but not using it are two different things.

Therefore, as a forbidden spellcaster, he must be cautious in making any decisions, because his words carry great weight and are easily adopted once he speaks.

"Before I share my thoughts, I still have a question in my mind, Representative Wang Teng. May I ask you a question?" Jiang Shaoli looked at Wang Teng earnestly.

"Sure, if I can answer," Wang Teng replied ambiguously, knowing he couldn't possibly answer every question.

"Do you have any backup plans to cut your losses in time?" Jiang Shaoli considered the worst-case scenario, assuming that Gu Laowang didn't come tomorrow. Would Wang Teng be able to make some different preparations?

He believed that as a member of parliament, the other party couldn't possibly only have fighting on his mind, and considering the previous conversation, it was clear that he had thought things through and made a plan.

"Yes!" Wang Teng glanced at Jiang Shaoli sitting opposite him in surprise and gave him an affirmative answer.

After listening, Jiang Shaoli's expression relaxed somewhat, and he looked at Pang Lai, saying, "I have no objection to the plan!"

Chief Pang Lai smacked his lips, seemingly finding the tea to be alright, and then turned his gaze to Wang Teng.

"Tomorrow, Shao Li and I will hide behind the fortress to provide cover for you. If necessary, we can cooperate with you to intercept the Pharaoh."

……

After the meeting that night, Chief Pang Lai handed over command to Wang Teng, with two backups he brought to provide support from the rear, ready to lend a hand at any time.

Based on the meeting's content, Staff Officer Bin began ordering the evacuation of mages below the high rank, instructing them to leave the Zhenbeiguan fortress as early as possible.

With the great battle approaching, a tense atmosphere permeated the entire fortress.

After leaving the scene, Zhao Manyan and Mo Fan returned to their rest area together with the three members of the Lingling Defense Team.

"Damn it~ I almost forgot to breathe during this meeting!" Zhao Manyan rubbed his chest, his face showing both excitement and trepidation.

"That's all you've got, Lao Zhao," Mo Fan laughed upon hearing this.

"Son, it's easy for you to say that when you're not in my shoes. Those four people have such a terrifying aura. Just sitting there, their invisible presence makes me feel like I can't breathe." Zhao Manyan immediately started to speak his mind.

"Son, you still want to rebel against the Heavenly Gang? You're intimidated by a little bit of bravado? Let's see what you do tomorrow!"

Mo Fan said this, but he was also silent in his heart. As a fellow member of the National Team, Wang Teng's growth rate was too fast.

He felt like he was dreaming, as if more than a decade had passed since they last met. The changes in the other person were beyond his imagination.

Lingling covered her forehead, looking at these two extraordinary beings, she felt like there were two flies buzzing around in her head.

Tonight will surely be the last night of peace.

In the quiet of the night, inside a room on the city tower, Wang Teng sat cross-legged on a futon, his right hand raised, a coin that appeared and disappeared slowly spinning at the tip of his index finger.

This coin is different from ordinary coins; the obverse features his portrait, while the reverse depicts the Hall of Heroes he founded.

This is the unique Heroic Spirit Seal that I created after tinkering for several nights. This seal is also the essence of forbidden spell power.

The Spirit Mark represents the loyalty of heroic spirits to Him, and the Hall of Heroes is the resting place of these heroic spirits.

In addition, the Heroic Signet is also a very complex anchor point.

One function is to allow one to sense the location of the Hall of Heroes at any time, maintaining the connection between the heroes and the Hall of Heroes; it serves as proof for the heroes to enter and exit.

Secondly, after a summoner summons a hero, the channel maintained is based on this core anchor point. If the magic energy that sustains it is lost, the hero's mark will automatically take the hero back to the Hall of Heroes.

Thirdly, it detects changes in entry and exit status. The Hall of Heroes will automatically identify the anchor point and then initiate time reversal to return to the anchor point state before exiting.

This will prevent the heroic spirits from being in poor magical condition after going on a mission, which could affect their next mission.

This was inspired by the Immortal Lotus; time reversal is an incredible power.

He cannot directly cast time reversal, but he can use the characteristics of chaos magic to indirectly manipulate time and revert to a previous state through array formations.

This step is the most difficult to perform, as it requires the use of anchor points to perform time rewind.

The power of forbidden spells is extremely difficult to erase, which is why success is possible and the anchor point will not collapse due to time reversal.

The Heroic Spirit Mark exists between the illusory and the real; it is the carrier of forbidden-level mental magic power, and also the imprint of his will.

The formation of a Heroic Spirit involves merging the Heroic Spirit Seal into the soul's mind, and then using the forbidden power of the spirit to completely transform the soul, allowing it to freely switch between the real and the unreal.

With his help, they can even greatly enhance the strength of their souls and become heroic souls similar to holy souls.

The Soul Imprint transforms the soul's perception at a spiritual level, continuously deepening the Soul's loyalty to Him and their sense of belonging to the Hall of Heroes.

The Heroic Spirit Seal is formed from the power of forbidden spells, and its characteristics are so domineering and so reassuring.

Even after a soul becomes a heroic spirit, it can still maintain its magical realm and even continue to comprehend and deepen the mysteries of magic.

The Hall of Heroes is represented by the Heroic Spirits!

Aside from mages whose magic is summoning and who have mastered all four magic types to the highest level, anyone whose magic proficiency is below the highest level in all four magic types is not qualified to become a Heroic Spirit Mage.

The Hall of Heroes doesn't accept trash. You don't even have four elements at max level. How dare you become a Heroic Spirit? How dare you live a second life? You can only say that anything is possible in dreams.

"Everything is ready, just waiting to cook!"

Wang Teng gazed at the Heroic Spirit Seal on his fingertip, a look of anticipation on his face. For this moment, he had been running around and busy for almost half a year, with hardly any time to rest.

It even relies on the ingenuity of the mind, with nine threads running simultaneously, so that working one day is equivalent to working nine days, which is how we achieved today's results.
