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

Chapter 56 Evolution!!

"What do you mean?"

Lu Zhenghe's face was grim, his teeth clenched, and he was furious.

The Dark Wolf had one leg severely injured.

They lost their strongest fighting force.

He can only rage in vain now.

"Trying to show off your abilities and then making mistakes, only to blame others for not covering for you? How ridiculous!"

Chu Ming sneered, too lazy to bother arguing with this fool.

It called Charizard back.

With a powerful punch that soars to the heavens, he sweeps away everything in his path.

Faced with Charmeleon and his powerful fire abilities.

All the cave demon slaves blocking the way were nothing but clay chickens and earthen dogs, and they all died in the flames, howling in agony.

Chu Ming led the team forward.

Mo Fan and Luo Song on either side of the group, and Mu Nujiao and Song Xia at the rear, dealt with the lone cave demon slaves one by one.

With the help of the Mingzhu Academy team members clearing the way and drawing fire, the situation improved.

The Imperial Academy followed closely behind.

The pressure of the battle immediately eased considerably.

The journey was smooth and unobstructed.

A short while later.

The two teams passed through the dark tunnel without any major incidents.

[Congratulations! You have killed a group of cave demon slaves and gained 600 points.]

Chu Ming looked at the group behind him, clapped his hands, and smiled, "You passed without taking any damage. Everyone cooperated well."

Upon hearing this...

Lu Zhenghe, standing at the back of the group, suddenly turned grim.

Everyone passed through safely.

But his contracted beast was injured.

The Shadow Wolf has been lost.

The trials to come.

As the team leader, he can only be a slacker.

I felt like I had become a burden to the team.

Lu Zhenghe couldn't help but feel resentful.

Grass!

It's all Chu Ming's fault!!

But aside from him.

Everyone present.

Students from the Imperial Capital Academy all had great faith in Chu Ming's strength and his position as captain.

With such a captain at the front, drawing fire, it was a great advantage.

As long as you don't do anything stupid.

There's basically no need to worry about your safety.

"It's getting late, Captain. Shall we find a place to rest?"

Luo Song patted the fat on his belly and said breathlessly.

"Okay, sure." Chu Ming nodded.

"There's a building over there that looks pretty good?" Mo Fan said, pointing in a distant direction while looking around with his binoculars.

Holding the map, Qingqing looked at the location of the building in front of her and explained, "That used to be the city hall of Jinlin City."

"It hasn't collapsed after all this time, it looks pretty good, shall we go over?"

Liao Mingxuan was very interested and looked at his teammates.

Everyone readily agreed.

Generally speaking, having a building to shelter you from the wind and rain is definitely more comfortable and gives you a greater sense of security than camping in the wild.

"Then let's go."

Seeing that everyone wanted to go, Chu Ming nodded in agreement.

Anyway, coming out here is all about gaining experience.

If there are demons in the building, just kill them.

……

After another hour or so of running around.

When everyone arrived at the municipal building.

The sky grew completely dark.

Because there was a Charizard at the front of the group, serving as a deterrent.

Along the way, apart from some mindless, low-level servants and insects, they didn't encounter a single beast or monster.

A short while later.

Everyone entered the lobby on the first floor.

The entire city hall was a scene of ruins.

Weeds and vines covered the surrounding area.

The fire mages in the team were dealt with a bit.

Firewood was lit in the center of the area.

Everyone looked exhausted. They took out their food and drinks and sat down in a circle on the ground.

But at the same time.

Sensing the presence of humans, a plant demon that had been sleeping deep within the ruins suddenly awoke.

rustling sounds—

In the ruins of the building and deep underground, countless demonic vines began to slowly wriggle.

"Um?"

Chu Ming frowned.

Subtle movements in the darkness go unnoticed by others.

However, as a high-level shadow mage, his perception was actually enhanced in the darkness.

Chu Ming suddenly stood up and said, "Stop eating! Something's come out of this building!"

"Really? I didn't hear a thing!"

"No way, bro, we haven't even had a chance to sit down properly yet!"

"Another fight is about to start. I'm so tired!"

"Captain, with you here, we'll definitely be able to handle this easily!"

"That's right, with the Blue Whale around, all demons are nothing but trash!"

Because Chu Ming took the lead.

It was too safe the way we came.

Apart from Mu Nujiao, Mo Fan, Mu Ningxue and a few others.

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

Most people remained seated on the ground, hoping the captain would handle everything.

But Chu Ming wasn't there to be their babysitter.

This time he doesn't plan to summon any other spirits.

All matches.

As long as Charmeleon can fight.

Let alone Kyogre, even Gengar doesn't need to intervene.

"All Pearl Cadet trainees, rise and prepare for battle!"

"The demons that have come this time are no small fry!"

Seeing Chu Ming's serious gaze.

Shen Mingxiao, Luo Song, and the others dared not hesitate and quickly stood up.

Seeing this, the students from the capital city dared not slack off and stood up, ready for battle.

Several tens of seconds later.

call out!

call out! !

Whoosh!

One vine after another sprouted wildly from the ground and cracks in the walls.

The very tips of the branches harden rapidly, constantly growing and changing.

In the blink of an eye, they transformed into sharp spears, stabbing fiercely at the crowd.

"Left front, flamethrower!!"

Chu Ming looked in one direction and ordered Charizard to attack.

"Fierce Fist - Skyward!"

"Wind Discharge - Tornado!"

"Ice Vines - Cover!"

Mo Fan, Mu Nujiao, and Mu Ningxue also possessed excellent combat awareness.

They immediately realized what was happening and began to draw a star map.

Just as the plants sprouted, their attack followed.

boom!

Flames erupted first!

Once the others could see clearly, they saw countless demonic vines growing densely in the depths of darkness, almost covering the surrounding area. They all released magic with expressions of terror on their faces.

"It's a plant-based demon!!"

"Holy crap, it looks like we've been ambushed again?!"

"Oh no, the passage we came from has been blocked!!"

Xu Dalong turned his head and saw dense vines intertwined to form layers of plant walls blocking the entrance, and despair filled his eyes.

"This plant-like monster doesn't seem like a simple creature."

"Could it be a commander-level officer...?"

"Captain, what do we do?"

Shen Mingxiao, Luo Song, and Zheng Bingxiao looked terrified and moved closer to Chu Ming.

Chu Ming frowned.

He simply looked up and saw a huge gap on the third floor.

In the darkness where no one can see.

He saw it clearly.
