Full-Time Mage: Starting with Gengar, selected for the National Tournament

Chapter 102 As a man, should I hold on until dawn?

"Roar! Roar! Roar!"

The roars rose and fell, constantly emanating from underground.

Although the Great Corpse General had already been killed by Chu Ming.

However, the violent magical energy also completely attracted the attention of the undead in this area.

Countless undead and rotting corpses gathered together.

"Damn it, there are more and more undead!"

The servant Ali looked grim as he continued to fight off the oncoming horde of zombies.

Beside him, the Night Knights summoned by Ye Mengli continuously swung their longswords, the sharp blades swiftly reaping the heads of the rotting corpses.

boom!

Watching the rotting corpses explode and turn into countless fragments.

The short man and the burly man who were watching breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's almost dawn. If we just hold on a little longer, the zombie horde will be over!" The short man wiped the sweat from his forehead, glanced at the distant sky, and said to Ali beside him.

At this time.

Suddenly, the Night Knight raised his longsword and spurred his black horse to charge towards the horde of corpses.

boom!

A burst of immense dark energy suddenly flashed, and the shadows exploded, clearing out a large open space.

Then.

The Night Knight pulled on the reins, turned, and flew into the dark space, his body disappearing into the shadows of the night.

"What... what's going on? Without the Night Knights, how are we supposed to cope?"

Everyone was dumbfounded.

No one expected that, at the very last moment, the main force fighting the zombie horde would disappear?!

"My cultivation isn't high enough; the time I can summon it is limited." With that, Ye Mengli took a deep breath, retreated to Chu Ming's side, blinked, and teased, "I've done my best. Now it's up to you. As a man, you should at least last longer than me, right?"

"Keep going, hang in there until dawn!"

ha?

As a man, can you last longer than her?

Hold on until dawn?

That sounds... kind of weird.

Chu Ming looked at Ye Mengli's expression, his face slightly strange.

This woman... is she still thinking about driving at a time like this?

But he was a true man.

How dare you look down on us?

Chu Ming leaned close to Ye Mengli's ear and said earnestly, "Don't worry, my greatest strength is my stamina. I can fight until dawn, or even for three days and three nights."

He glanced at the dark mass of corpses in the distance and immediately gave the order to Gengar.

"Go and deal with the left side."

After saying that, he took the Village Rain and charged toward the horde of undead on the right.

"Three days and three nights? I don't believe it."

Watching Chu Ming's departing figure, Ye Mengli's ears turned slightly red. She stood with her arms crossed, her red lips moving slightly, making a sound that only she could hear.

……

boom!

boom!

Faced with the surging tide of zombies, Gengar continuously used Shadow Balls.

Each shadow burst open.

It blasted countless rotting corpses into pieces.

Seeing the aura of the dead everywhere, Gengar used a siphon to absorb and collect it all.

Although these low-level corpses only possess the aura of the dead.

Undead fire was not created.

However, a large amount of necromantic energy, after being refined, can also be used as nourishment for necromantic fire.

"What kind of contracted beast is this? Not only is it unaffected by the aura of the undead, but it can even devour the energy of the undead?!"

Seeing this scene.

Ye Mengli, the dwarf, the burly man, and the others widened their eyes, completely stunned.

Although both the Shadow and Undead factions are dark-related.

But in essence, they are two branches of the same lineage.

Until now.

Don't even mention the short man, Ali, or Asin.

Even Ye Mengli couldn't figure out whether Chu Ming's strange contracted beast was undead or shadow-type.

But only Chu Ming knew.

Gengar, from the Pokémon world, cannot be viewed using common sense.

If we were to compare it to the power of the magical world, the progression of its characteristics, from the initial [Levitation] to [Cursed Body] to the final [Shadow Step], involves the three magic systems of "Undead, Curse, and Shadow".

Its attributes include [ghost, poison].

Not to mention the Mega Evolution of Gengar, which can also control the ability to travel through different dimensions.

If placed in a magical world.

It can be said that Gengar does not belong to any branch of the creature, but is a contracted beast that can control the entire Dark type, and even includes a Space type.

Curse, shadow, poison, undead, space—five types of contracted creatures!

Time passed slowly.

Gengar almost wiped out all the undead on one side.

Meanwhile, Chu Ming, wielding the Murasame sword, unleashed streaks of fiery blade energy, blasting the incoming horde of undead to annihilation.

However, due to the large number of undead, hordes of them still rushed in.

"We can't kill them all no matter how hard we try?" Ali and Asin were dumbfounded.

"You have to hold on!"

"It's almost dawn, just hang in there and it'll be over."

The short man and the strong man, who had retreated to the rear to rest, clenched their fists as they looked at the vast horde of undead in the distance, and shouted in their hearts.

Although Chu Ming and Gengar joined.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

The situation was almost completely reversed.

It even wiped out the undead that were closing in from the surrounding area.

But after all, a mage's magical power and mental strength are limited.

Whether it's the power of Gengar or the power released by Chu Ming himself.

These are clearly not ordinary spells; they must have consumed a considerable amount of energy.

Ye Mengli lasted for twenty minutes.

It will be at least another thirty minutes before dawn.

During this period.

If even Chu Ming can't hold on.

They're completely finished.

In fact.

Using Ye Mengli as a reference.

The short man's worries were completely unfounded.

This level of combat intensity.

Let alone thirty minutes, even three days and three nights would be no problem for Chu Ming. He could come as he pleased without stopping.

soon.

Thirty minutes passed.

A faint ray of light shone down from the horizon.

The deathly aura of the earth was also rapidly dissipating.

The deathly aura has vanished.

The undead and rotting corpses scattered and fled in panic, like a swarm of headless flies!

After the deathly aura dissipated.

If the dead do not return to the underground in time and are exposed to sunlight for a long time, they will soon die suddenly.

"It's over, we're safe." The short man took a deep breath, a weight lifted from his heart.

As Chu Ming approached, everyone's expressions varied.

It can be said.

Chu Ming's strength left a deep impression on them.

A look of surprise flashed across Ye Mengli's eyes.

One person and one contracted beast withstood the relentless attacks of the undead army for over forty minutes.

In terms of time, it's twice as long as hers.

What surprised her most was that despite consuming so much magic power, Chu Ming didn't seem tired at all.

This guy is a monster!

A short while later.

As the morning light grew brighter, the horde of undead corpses receded and disappeared almost entirely, like a receding tide.

"It's all thanks to Brother Chu that we held out when the zombie horde was at its peak. Otherwise, the rest of us wouldn't have been able to hold out until now..." The dwarf said gratefully as he walked up to Chu Ming.

"Yes, Brother Chu has been a great help this time!" The burly man nodded sincerely.

Ali and Asin, the attendants, were also deeply frightened.

That intense and dramatic moment.

They never want to experience it again.

I also took the opportunity to thank Chu Ming.

The two returned to Ye Mengli's side, whispering apologies for their inadequate protection.

Ye Mengli didn't say much, but looked at Chu Ming and asked, "That battle must have taken a toll. Shall we find a place to rest?"
