Full-Time Magister: Dark Lord

It could be said that, apart from matters concerning women, Cao Le was untrustworthy; otherwise, she was confident he wouldn't lie to her.

As for how Cao Le knew, she didn't ask...

There are always reasons why he doesn't say certain things.

"Then...why did you still approach me...?" Mu Ningxue was silent for a moment, looking at Cao Le with some confusion.

To get involved with her would be tantamount to going against the entire Mu family!

The Mu clan...

One of the largest aristocratic families in the country, it can be said that besides the Zhao family, there are several other ancient aristocratic families in the country... Who can compete with the Mu family?

The reason it is called the Zhao family is because they were at odds with the Mu family, meaning the Zhao family was the one who openly opposed them.

Because they were never afraid of the Mu clan.

Even though the Mu clan has forbidden spell masters.

However, the Zhao family's financial power should not be underestimated.

Therefore, Mu Ningxue couldn't understand why Cao Le was still helping her at this time. Wasn't he just causing her trouble?

"Because you're the wife I've been planning to marry," Cao Le replied with a smile.

In short, he's taking advantage of the situation while being very serious.

"Don't you...aren't you afraid of the Mu family...?" Mu Ningxue felt that Cao Le knew so much, so he must be aware of the power of the Mu family.

"What's so scary about the Mu family?"

"Although I can't really do anything to them right now."

"But without that forbidden spell, what can they do to me?"

Cao Le said nonchalantly.

My younger sister is now being completely cared for by the Tang family of Lingyin Temple.

Mu is getting too big for his britches; how could he possibly openly offend state officials?

The Hangzhou Trial Committee is not something the Mu family can interfere with. With the Totem Black Serpent present, they'll have to think twice before causing trouble.

With no need to worry about his own sister's safety, he had even less reason to panic.

Not to mention that it's currently the Nationalist government phase, and the Mu family wouldn't dare do anything to him. Once the Nationalist government phase ends, Cao Le's strength will definitely double.

Moreover, he will bring pride to the Chinese people in this world-class competition!

With this reputation, the Mu family dared not do anything to him.

Even if his fame fades over the next few years, can Cao Le really remain stagnant?

Therefore, from the very beginning, he never took the Mu family seriously.

Of course, this is also because he obtained the power of the Shadow King and inherited Cao Cao's legacy... which is why he became so arrogant.

Otherwise, he would still be the same Cao Le who was quietly developing his career.

"you...."

Upon hearing this, Mu Ningxue was somewhat surprised, and finally said helplessly, "Do you really understand the Mu family...?"

In her opinion, Cao Le was getting a little too arrogant!

If the Mu family were truly so unworthy of its reputation, would the entire Mu clan still be so arrogant?

How could killing a mage in private go unnoticed?

“You might not believe it, but I know far more about the Mu family than you do. I can’t tell you right now, but believe me, once we get past the National Government, no matter how powerful the Mu family is, they won’t amount to much,” Cao Le continued.

“I know… otherwise I wouldn’t have accepted your help.” Mu Ningxue naturally knew how important the National Games were to her.

"You need to understand one thing: whether or not you accept my help is not up to you. What I want to give you, you can't refuse!" Cao Le said, slightly dissatisfied.

Mu Ningxue originally wanted to stand up for herself.

But seeing Cao Le's restless hands...

Okay, she immediately fell silent.

Trying to reason with a scoundrel like that, she felt like she was nobody else...

197. The Great Tide

After everyone had familiarized themselves with their assigned areas, they went back to rest.

Among them, substitutes can choose not to participate in the game.

After all, substitutes don't have resources, but if they don't participate in the game, they might lose their chance to be substitutes.

Therefore, generally speaking, substitutes are the ones who absolutely need playing time.

All the buildings in Donghai City were planned in advance. Once the ocean swallows the streets, and everything is water, mages who aren't skilled in naval combat can stand on the upper floors. The distance between buildings isn't too great, allowing mages to move freely. If they are truly outmatched, they can run to the nearest un-swallowed area and hide in narrow passages inaccessible to sea monsters...

It must be said that Japan may not have been very good at naval warfare, but this design gave them the opportunity to deal with the sirens.

Of course, it's not just Japan that excels at naval warfare; almost all countries train mages to be land-based mages.

After all, sirens live very discreetly in their deep seas and rarely launch attacks on humans.

However, little did humans know that the reason the sirens kept a low profile was not because they disliked human land, but simply because they were conserving their energy.

In coastal countries like Japan, the reason why sirens frequently appear is not because they have overpopulated and come here to die.

In reality, they were merely a vanguard.

...

Early in the morning...

The Nationalist team arrived at the neighborhood they were required to guard.

When they arrived, Ai Jiangtu sent Li Kaifeng and Guan Yu to investigate the situation first.

No matter when, the most important thing in dealing with demons is to first understand their situation.

Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated!

If you fight blindly without any intelligence, it is extremely irresponsible to yourself and your teammates.

However, because the siren lurks in the sea, even two assassins cannot fully ascertain the situation.

With the tide constantly rising, the initial distance of a hundred meters from the low dike revealed a patch of mud and sand. Gradually, the seawater pounded against the low ground, each impact becoming more intense, the sound of the waves like a roar, and the spray like a torrential rain!

In the end, the two had to return empty-handed.

Fortunately, they weren't the only team in the area; there were other hunter mages as well.

Of course, upon seeing how young they all looked, the hunter mages instinctively assumed they were just a bunch of rookies...

"It's coming."

Cao Le gazed at the endless curtain of clouds, not a single gap in sight, the tide line reaching straight to the clouds; the visual shock and psychological terror it brought far exceeded his imagination...

Actually, even without his reminder, everyone had already noticed.

Upon seeing such a massive tide, Jiang Yu exclaimed in disbelief, "Holy crap, really? Is it that terrifying???"

Amidst the blue and white surging tide, numerous black dots could be seen, densely distributed across the rolling tidal screen. From a distance, it was impossible to discern what these were; only upon reaching Donghai City would one understand that they were sea monsters emerging from the ocean tide!

The number is simply in the tens of thousands!

"We were lucky; on our first day of defense, we encountered a high tide."

Cao Le smiled, seemingly unconcerned, and then looked at Ai Jiangtu, saying, "With this kind of high tide, lower floors won't be able to hold their ground. Let's defend higher floors."

Yesterday's plans were clearly a waste of time.

After all, man proposes, God disposes.

Ai Jiangtu nodded and hurriedly gave the instructions.

Everyone then took their place at the highest point...

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!"

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!" Valley

The deafening roar of the tides instantly flooded the towering buildings of the naval battle city...

As far as the eye can see, almost everything is seawater...

Moreover, there was fog in the tide, and now the fog was like a torrential downpour, soaking everyone in the blink of an eye.

Cao Le possesses fire magic, so it doesn't really matter; neither does a mage with ice magic.

But without anyone with ice or fire abilities, it's a real problem...

“They’re here.” X2.

Just then, Cao Le and Nan Jue simultaneously noticed the approaching sea monster.

Cao Le relied on her powerful mental strength, while Nan Jue relied on her musical talent.

Cao Le, whose mental strength was at the peak of level six, was just as capable of sensing the surrounding commotion as Nan Jue.

As the two finished speaking, one by one, dark figures began to slowly emerge from the sea...

"I haven't fought in days, I'm itching for a fight! Hold on, let them out, I'll give them a good blast!" Mo Fan said, gazing at the black dots in the sea.

At the same time, several people were completely speechless...

I've never seen such a idiot who loves fighting so much...

However, thanks to his multiple elemental advantages, Mo Fan's combat strength is undeniable.

"Waaaaah~~ Waaaaah~~~"

Just then, a crying sound rang out...

Hearing the sound, everyone looked over.

Before anyone could speak, Cao Le shot out a giant dark nail.

"Pfft~~~"
