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

Chapter 59 Silencing

"Captain, our team can't function without you!"

Zhao Manyan and Bai Tingting grew anxious and tried to persuade them again.

"yes!"

"You're the captain, an indispensable member of the team!"

Shen Mingxiao and Luo Song echoed each other.

It doesn't matter if a troublemaker like Mo Fan leaves.

But what if Chu Ming, this "pillar of stability," leaves?

If we encounter a crisis like yesterday again...

They probably won't even have time to react before they're bound by the tendrils of the false demon.

In the end, all you can do is watch helplessly as you wait to die... that's pure despair!

But Chu Ming wasn't negotiating with them; he laid it all out plainly, saying calmly, "We're here to gain experience."

"I'm the team leader, but my priority is completing the mission."

"Don't always rely on others for your safety; no one is indispensable."

"They're supposed to be mid-level mages, after all. Do they really lose all confidence in themselves just because they left the safe city and entered the wilderness?"

After saying that, Chu Ming ignored them and climbed onto the back of the fire-breathing dragon, flying towards the survey point in the eastern part of the desolate city.

"this……"

"What do we do now?!"

Watching Chu Ming's departing figure, everyone looked helpless and had a headache.

Yesterday was the day.

They had become accustomed to relying on Chu Ming's leadership and guidance, and without their "leader," they were momentarily flustered and at a loss.

Shen Mingxiao, Luo Song, and the others immediately felt the pressure increase.

"Captain Chu is right. We're here to gain experience. If Mo Fan dares to go out and explore alone, what are we afraid of as a group?"

Song Xia was the quickest to face reality and cheered everyone up.

Mu Nujiao nodded in agreement and said, "In any case, the mission must continue. Now that Captain Chu has left, we need to be more vigilant in our next operation."

"Alright, let's choose a new captain then," Zhao Manyan suggested.

A few minutes later.

After some discussion.

The new captain of Mingzhu fell on Song Xia's shoulders.

Meanwhile, in the capital city...

Considering that Lu Zhenghe had lost his fighting ability, they took the opportunity to re-select a captain.

Strength is paramount.

Ultimately, Mu Ningxue was chosen as the team leader.

The two teams set off again, heading towards the nearest swamp city.

……

Two hours later.

Zhao Manyan, Luo Song, and the others were sweating profusely as they frantically fled the swamp behind them.

And far behind them.

A large group of green-skinned lizards, trapped in the swampy city, kept crawling out, their dense green covering almost the entire swamp.

"Run!"

"Damn it, this area is almost entirely overrun by green-skinned lizards!"

"I don't want to be their dinner!"

"Hold on a little longer, we'll be out of their territory soon!"

"Hurry up!"

The young mages unleashed various spells, pushing their magical artifacts to their limits.

In the end, they managed to escape unharmed.

"Damn, we're already in such a mess after surveying just one area. This desolate city is so big, if we were to survey all of it, wouldn't half of us die?"

The fat man, Luo Song, was out of breath and spoke in fits and starts.

"Yes, luckily we planned our escape route in advance. If we had just run around recklessly, we might have been caught by those green-skinned lizards."

Shen Mingxiao nodded, still feeling a lingering fear.

"If Captain Chu were here, that would be great."

Xu Dalong couldn't help but say.

If it were Captain Chu, no matter how many lizard demons charged at him, he could hold his own and fight them head-on.

They no longer need to be forced to flee in such a panic.

I rested for a while.

The group prepared to walk along the train tracks.

Suddenly.

Liao Mingxuan, who was observing his surroundings, saw a dark shadow sweep across a forest in the gloomy sky and rushing towards them.

"Look over there, it looks like someone's coming!"

"Is it a flying mount? Could it be that Captain Chu is back?"

Everyone looked on with surprise and delight.

But soon, more and more figures riding flying demons appeared in the sky.

Zhao Manyan and the others looked surprised.

"No, they seem to be military mages?"

A group of mages riding on giant white eagles and dressed in uniform attire arrived before the crowd.

As for the Sky Eagle, a demonic beast tamed by military mages.

Zhao Manyan, being from a prominent family, was naturally familiar with this.

But what puzzled him was...

The uniforms of these military mages seem a bit strange.

"A military mages? Could it be that the dean contacted them because he knew about our difficulties in surveying and wanted to help us complete the mission?"

Upon seeing the military magistrate appear, Zhao Mingyue and Jingjing's eyes lit up with joy, and their imaginations began to run wild.

Generally speaking

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

Military mages do not act arbitrarily.

Unless certain tasks are being performed.

"Not really."

Zhao Manyan sensed the tense atmosphere opposite him, shook his head, and became more wary.

But most people still seemed indifferent.

They had considerable trust in the military mages.

After all, without the protection of military mages, many cities would have been breached by demons long ago.

among the crowd.

Lu Zhenghe stood in the corner, his eyes darting around as he watched the squads of military mages approach, and he lowered his head in fear.

Soon, Lu Nian, with a pipe in his mouth and a green trench coat on, walked up to the crowd.

His gaze swept across the area, and he couldn't help but frown.

Finally, glancing at Lu Zhenghe in the corner, he said coldly, "Lu Zhenghe, where are those two?"

Lu Zhenghe was somewhat afraid and dared not look Lu Nian in the eye. He stammered, "Chu Ming and Mo Fan, those two chose to act alone and went to other survey points."

"snort!"

Lu Nian's eyes were somewhat irritated, and he looked disappointed in Lu Nian.

This operation only had two targets, and both of them just happened to be absent?

If Lu Zhenghe wasn't his brother.

He absolutely had to cripple him on the spot!

"You idiot, come here right now!"

Lu Nian shouted, then slowly raised his right hand and ordered his men behind him, "Kill all the other bystanders."

These words were spoken.

Everyone was stunned.

Even Lu Nian's subordinates did not expect that Lu Nian would be so ruthless.

I thought it was just about arresting two students.

Make them cooperate with the "great" research.

Only if someone does not cooperate or resists will forceful suppression be used.

Now, they're being allowed to slaughter everyone for no reason?

Lu Zhenghe was even more stunned.

He quickly tried to dissuade them.

"Brother, are you mistaken? Didn't you only want Chu Ming and Mo Fan from Mingzhu?"

"These are all my classmates!"

A cold glint appeared in Lu Nian's eyes, his tone utterly calm: "That's precisely why we must silence them. This matter must not be known to any other force besides us!"

After saying that, he suddenly turned his head, glanced at his subordinates behind him, and his eyes flashed with a sharp, cold light: "What are you all standing there for?!"

At this time.

"Run!!" Zhao Manyan roared, activating the magic tool with all his might.

For an instant.

Everyone was startled awake and skillfully activated their magical artifacts and teleportation spells, scattering and fleeing towards the distant forests and swamps.

"A bunch of useless trash!"

Lu Nian was furious and roared at his men, "Chase them all! Don't let a single one escape!"

"Lu Zhenghe, you come with me."

Where did those two go?

Lu Zhenghe walked over hesitantly and said, "Mo Fan went to the west side of the desolate city, and the other one... Chu Ming went to the east side of the desolate city."

When talking about Chu Ming.

His timid expression shifted to a glimmer of hope and fierceness: "Big brother, that Chu Ming has a flying contracted beast, making him even stronger. We can capture him first!"

Lu Nian snorted and nodded: "At least you're starting to look like a mage."
