Full-Time Magician: Demon Mage

Chapter 441 The Arrival of the Calamity

Upon hearing Wang Teng's words, Tang Zhong smiled with delight, "Good, good... I will continue to purchase the Siren resources at the original price, as many as you can get."

The butler standing next to Tang Zhong smiled knowingly; now everyone was happy.

Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue sat to the side, their hearts itching to join in, but they had no reason to speak up.

Lingling, sitting to the side, ate her dessert with a resentful look on her face, occasionally glancing at the two of them with a hint of anger at their lack of ambition.

"Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue, I've heard of your names. You are the leaders of the newly established Fanxue Mountain Clan."

"I heard that you recently formed an alliance with the Dongfang family. Since you are acquainted with Wang Teng, I can leave a larger share for the Dongfang family in the future."

"In this way, you will also be able to gain more profit. I presume that the finished magical tools made by the Dongfang family have already been put on sale in your place?" Tang Zhong asked the two in a kind and friendly manner.

Old fox...

Wang Teng thought to himself that this way of cooking one fish in four ways was really familiar.

"Thank you very much, Judge Tang Zhong, for your kindness. On behalf of Fan Xueshan, I thank you for your assistance," Mu Ningxue said with great joy.

What Fanxue Mountain lacks now is various resources. As long as the market is developed, everything will move in a positive direction.

Seeing how kind Tang Zhong was, Mo Fan felt a little less resentful. It seemed that not all aristocratic families were like the Da Li family or the Lu family.

Mu Ningxue was in charge of almost everything at Fanxue Mountain. He usually didn't interfere and naturally couldn't say anything.

"Haha, you're too kind. Anyway, I'm going to sell all my materials, so it doesn't matter who I sell them to," Tang Zhong said with a smile.

This time, he not only gave Wang Teng face, but also did Fanxueshan a favor, and could do another favor for the Dongfang family. He could gain the favor of all three parties, and in the end, he would just sell more resources to the Dongfang family.

He just said that it doesn't matter who he sells to. If it weren't for these established families and independent merchants, he wouldn't be able to sell his goods himself.

Fanxue Mountain and Feiniao Base City are adjacent, and their future development is bound to be remarkable. Now that he has a favor to do, he has essentially secured his ticket to enter the city in the future.

At the very least, doing business with them will definitely get you a lot of preferential treatment.

Mo Fan suddenly felt inexplicably superfluous. He felt that he was somewhat redundant to be here, as Mu Ningxue could handle all these trivial matters perfectly on her own.

He turned his head slightly to look at Lingling and found that the other was rolling its eyes at him and was still fiercely dealing with its food, as if it had a grudge against him.

The group present could be roughly divided into three parties. Tang Zhong and Wang Teng seemed to be in charge, but he seemed a bit out of place.

"Today is indeed a good day; we should bring out a bottle of our treasured wine to celebrate," Wang Teng said, getting up to leave.

To be honest, he hadn't had tea in a long time, as he had been busy cultivating. Especially after Leng Qing came, he started drinking tea more often.

Mo Fan and Lingling were having a secret, hushed conversation, which made Mu Ningxue's forehead veins throb with excitement.

Why is this guy still acting like a child with Lingling? It's making her feel a bit out of place. He should at least be mindful of the occasion and act like a leader, okay? He should at least put on an act.

Tang Zhong turned around and started talking to the butler, seemingly ignoring him and deliberately avoiding eye contact so as not to embarrass the other person.

Soon the banquet began. Leng Qing brought out the dishes and set them out, while Yu Mian and Jiang Shaoxu helped carry things.

Wang Teng took two bottles of unidentified red wine. He didn't know where they were from, but he noticed the note Tang Yue had marked them as collectibles.

The rest was left to Tang Yue, who clearly knew more about red wine.

A group of people sat around the dining table, surrounded by a delicious aroma, their faces beaming with anticipation.

"Let's raise a glass to celebrate our successful collaboration!"

Wang Teng happily raised his glass, glanced around, and spoke.

"Cheers~"×n

Everyone raised their glasses, and Lingling also raised her drink glass, looking very happy, as if she really enjoyed the gathering.

……

Time flies, and a week has passed in the blink of an eye.

The entire Shanghai base area is experiencing torrential rain, which has been going on for three days.

Hangzhou is already deeply affected by urban flooding, with water inundating the entire city. If you look down from above, Hangzhou is even more like Venice than Venice itself.

Wang Teng, dressed in his home clothes, sat cross-legged by the floor-to-ceiling window in the master bedroom, gazing at the vast torrent below. He could even sense the unique aquatic demonic energy emanating from the rain.

Moon Rain Manor is located at the foot of the mountain, more than 50 meters higher than the riverbank. Unless a sea monster pushes a huge wave to crash in, it is impossible for it to be flooded.

A graceful figure slowly walked over, took a futon and placed it next to Wang Teng, then sat down cross-legged.

Leng Qing's eyes were slightly dazed. She gently rubbed her lower abdomen, then yawned, slowly waking up.

"This rain just won't stop; today is the fourth day already."

"This doesn't look like a good omen..."

Leng Qing stared at the torrential rain outside, her expression a mixture of scrutiny and seriousness.

"Don't worry... the guards here in Hangzhou are full of talented people, there are plenty of people to handle things."

Wang Teng reached out and stroked her long hair, finding it exceptionally easy to do so.

As early as a week ago, the chief and the Hua Jun chief already knew the intelligence and would definitely remind the councilors in Hangzhou.

It's not his turn to take action yet; he's a member of the Forbidden City's council, so he doesn't need to step in casually.

According to the established system, he was not part of the local guard force, but belonged to the Forbidden City. He would only take action if the local forces could not hold out or if they actively sought help from the Forbidden City.

Otherwise, if every little thing that happens in any city requires the intervention of members of the Forbidden City, then those members of the Forbidden City would be beneath their dignity.

Are the local monks just sitting around doing nothing?

Unless something so serious that it threatens the survival of the city and the local authorities lack the power to protect it, seeking help from the imperial court indiscriminately will result in being held accountable.

"Sister Leng, you're up too?"

Tang Yue's voice came from behind me. She was also wearing home clothes and bringing up some breakfast.

Soon a folding table was set up in front of the three of them, and they ate while enjoying the rain.

"This collaboration is most likely to fall through." Tang Yue looked at the flooded highway and the distant Qiantang River, where temporary workers were still being soaked in the heavy rain.

Wang Teng activated his Mind Vision, a simplified ability granted by divine inspiration, which allowed him to directly observe the coastal area hundreds of kilometers away.

Two arrogant clouds of energy glared at the land, one of them constantly generating clouds of water vapor that were continuously sent into the sky.

Under its influence, the water vapor cloud clusters rushed towards Hangzhou with a clear purpose, just like the deep-sea demon lord before.

However, the opponent's methods were far inferior to those of the Deep Sea Demon Lord, who created torrential rain by sending water vapor clouds hundreds of kilometers away.

Near those two arrogant figures, there were countless tiny, siren-like lights, which were undoubtedly the cannon fodder that these two had brought in.

However, they haven't taken any action yet, seemingly waiting for the arrival of the great tidal force.

The situation in the city is particularly difficult at this moment. Many mages are standing on the bridge piers that have been built, just like on a naval battlefield, facing the sea monsters directly without any defensive barriers.

Now that the land has already been submerged, there is no point in standing on the bridge to defend it. It would be better to build a defensive line and fight off the sea monster!
