Full-Time Magister: Dark Lord

"..."

Watching the lava and firestones explode in mid-air, and the feathered demons falling from the sky, Mo Fan couldn't resist the urge to join in.

"Thunder Magnetic Cannon!"

"Rumble..."

Two waves of bombardment, one fire and one thunder, instantly turned a large number of winged demons into corpses that fell to the ground...

A large amount of debris was drawn towards the location of the two people!

"Stop fighting! If we alert an even stronger Feathered Demon, this will never end..." Zhang Xiaohou shouted again, seeing the two fighting with increasing ferocity.

Having no other choice, based on what Zhang Xiaohou said, the two decided to retreat first...

There was a cave in the cliff of this even higher mountain, which seemed to be inhabited by some demons. But at the moment, everyone didn't care what lived inside and ran straight into the cave. It was pitch black inside, but the wind stopped blowing in, which made everyone, who were feeling a bit torn apart by the wind, feel a little better.

Other demons naturally also live here, but Mo Fan seemed to have had enough fun just now, so he went to be the vanguard.

Soon, a burst of lightning crackled and popped, and everyone saw a corpse.

"Let's rest here for a bit and then continue our journey."

Although it's safe now, the Feathered Demons must not have dispersed in such a short time.

Going out now wouldn't be as simple as it is now. We'd be surrounded and attacked indefinitely...

...

Almost an hour later, they cautiously peeked out. Fortunately, they had already avoided the annoying winged demons and continued climbing the higher mountain. Finally, the Vine Crown Mountain world was above them.

The vine canopy is so dense that it almost forms a verdant island in the sky. Once you fully enter the vine canopy mountain layer, it feels like you are in a dense forest full of ancient vines that makes you lose yourself!

This place was like a giant maze. Cao Le turned to Li Dexin and the others and asked, "Can you find the person you're looking for?"

“Of course.” Li Dexin nodded.

Now that he was getting closer to his mission objective, he didn't want to waste any more words. After saying "goodbye," he left with his men.

Their departure just like that aroused dissatisfaction among Zhao Manyan and others!

That son of a bitch, he brought them up here and didn't even know to say "thank you"?

Cao Le simply smiled at Zhao Manyan's complaints; in his opinion, the other party had already done quite well.

After separating from Li Dexin and his group, Cao Le left a dark mark on them. Now, apart from him, only those at the level of forbidden spells can detect his dark mark.

Unless he wants to remove them, these marks will remain on their bodies indefinitely.

Zhang Xiaohou led the group to continue upwards along the vine-covered canopy.

In places like Baiba Mountain, you often don't know where the path to continue climbing is. You can only reach a high point, look up, find a higher place, and then follow that direction to get closer. Then, when you reach another high point, there will be an even more majestic mountain or forest standing there!

After they had walked for a while, Zhao Manyan suddenly exclaimed, "Holy crap!!!"

"What's wrong with you now? Why are you so jumpy? What the hell are you trying to do?"

Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan were closest to each other, and the sound made his head buzz.

Following Zhao Manyan's gaze, Mo Fan was also stunned...

Their reactions naturally caught everyone's attention, and when they saw the ancient tree in the distance, they were all shocked.

The giant purple trees, shimmering with a dreamlike, crystalline effect under the sunlight, stood against the blue sky. It should have been a magnificent sight, inspiring awe and wonder. However, Mo Fan, Lingling, and Zhao Manyan were all completely dumbfounded.

Because that is the great demon in Kunyu Mountain outside Yantai!

That thing even possessed a touch of divine radiance. Upon first seeing this majestic, pure-colored ancient tree, humanity initially felt it was a gift from nature, a sacred tree existing to protect something. However, nature had said nothing. All that beauty and sacredness was merely human imagination. It didn't exist for any mission; it strictly adhered to nature's core law: the survival of the fittest!

"The Heavenly Crown Purple Linden Divine Tree, I never expected it to survive and even escape here..." Mo Fan finally spoke after a moment.

"Wasn't this thing killed by the Yan clan?" Zhao Manyan asked, puzzled.

You should know that his maternal grandmother was a true big shot who had one foot in the forbidden spell level.

“It had nine stems. Yan Shi and Yue Mo Huang cut off eight of them, leaving only one,” Mo Fan said.

"I see...no wonder it looks a bit different..."

After muttering something, Zhao Manyan added, "But this thing still looks pretty scary..."

"Since we've run into it this time, we'll just take care of it while we're at it," Cao Le said nonchalantly, looking at the devil tree.

If it were the opponent at its peak, Cao Le wouldn't have had the strength. But things are different now; even though it's still very strong, it's not like it's unsolvable.

"You guys seem to know a lot about this tree?" Zhang Xiaohou asked, puzzled.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Manyan immediately began Teacher Zhao's lesson... recounting in great detail what had happened outside Yantai, adding a lot of embellishment.

Not only Zhang Xiaohou listened attentively, but Apas and Mu Nujiao did too...

"I see..." Zhang Xiaohou said, looking as if he had just realized something.

Their former colleagues, it seems, met their demise in this way...

"Gentlemen, it's great to see you here!" A soldier with a charcoal-like face from the Forbidden City Army jumped out of the vines and strode towards them.

"Why did you follow me again?" Zhao Manyan asked, puzzled.

The charcoal-faced soldier awkwardly recounted how they had gone to rescue people and then been ambushed. He also mentioned to Cao Le and the others that his shadow magic skills were actually quite good. Of course, he couldn't compare to Cao Le, but he was quite adept at tracking and such things. In this godforsaken place, they were practically the only ones they could turn to for help.

Chapter 1: The Prison for Serious Offenders

Zhenyun Prison is located on the southwestern border of China. While its name may not be widely known, its significance is in no way inferior to Qincheng Prison in Beijing. (The following appears to be unrelated and possibly a separate entry: Modern-day hunks Chen Liuhe and Shen Qingwu)

World-class male warriors Chen Liuhe and Shen Qingwu

Qincheng Prison likely houses notorious corrupt officials and the extremely wealthy; those who did not hold a high enough position before their imprisonment could not even enter that prison.

The Great Sage of Chaos

The Great Sage of Chaos

Zhenyun Prison is similar to Qincheng Prison in that it houses only the most serious criminals. Anyone dragged out of this prison is either responsible for at least a few murders or is a drug lord or arms dealer who has been operating on the borders of several countries for many years.

In short, everyone who lives here is a vicious and wanted criminal, and they are either sentenced to life imprisonment or death.

This is a prison located in a desolate area of ​​the southwest, filled with an ominous atmosphere. Today, several people who shouldn't be here have arrived.

Reborn Special Forces Female Soldier Farming

A military SUV with a military license plate screeched to a halt outside the prison's main gate, and two people got out, a man and a woman.

Even in a bustling metropolis, let alone in this godforsaken place, it would still attract a lot of attention.

The man was dressed in a crisp military uniform, with a gleaming star on his shoulder. Judging from his age, he was only about forty years old, yet he already held the rank of Major General.

The woman was incomparably beautiful and radiant. Her figure was even more graceful under her professional suit. She was definitely the kind of femme fatale who could cause chaos among the animals in this prison.

As soon as they got out of the car, they followed the warden, who had been waiting at the prison gate for a long time, into this notorious prison that was feared by many.

They were in a hurry, their faces showing anxiety and unease, especially the beautiful woman, whose pretty willow-leaf eyebrows were always tightly furrowed, as if she had a heavy heart.

"Warden, where is he?" the major general asked seriously. The three of them walked quickly and soon arrived at the warden's office.

"I've already sent someone to invite them; they'll be here soon," the warden said.

"Invite? Warden, are you sure you want to invite them, and not interrogate them?" The beautiful woman raised an eyebrow.

Hearing these slightly sarcastic words, the warden just smiled, sat alone by the window smoking, and was unwilling to explain further. No one knew the person they were going to meet today better than him, the warden. That person's past glory and experience were enough to be called a legend.

He never considered that person a serious criminal.

"Wanyue, when you see that person, you must put away your contempt." The middle-aged man with the rank of major general frowned and reminded her.

"Uncle Liu, can that person really rescue my father?" Su Wanyue asked with some doubt. Even an elite special forces team from the Southern Capital Military Region had failed, and she didn't believe that one person could turn the tide. What's even more absurd is that this person is a serious criminal sentenced to life imprisonment in Zhenyun Prison.

If it weren't for her trust in Grandpa Zhao, who was the Chief of Staff of the Southern Metropolitan Military Region, she would have turned around and left.

"If even Chen Liuhe can't do it in the entire Southwest region, then we need to prepare for the worst," the major general said.

Upon hearing this, Su Wanyue's shoulders trembled, and she said, "Uncle Liu, this concerns my father's life and death, it cannot be taken lightly."

The major general thought for a moment, looked at Su Wanyue, and said with an extremely solemn expression, "Wanyue, with..."

"Given the status of your family's Green Source Group, I believe you should know some of the information that's been kept under wraps. You've heard about that huge international diplomatic incident a year ago, haven't you?"

"I know that a royal shrine in a certain country was turned into a bloodbath overnight, with thirty-eight people killed or injured." After Su Wanyue finished speaking, her expression changed, and she stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

The major general nodded: "You guessed right, it was Chen Liuhe who did this. Otherwise, Chen Liuhe, who has been repeatedly called a national treasure by the higher-ups, would not have ended up in jail."

"Do you know how many people petitioned to save him back then, but it didn't work out? Who is Chen Liuhe? He's the pride of the military, a true pillar of the nation, a man who made outstanding contributions in peacetime. Even now, there are many legends about him in the military. His abilities are beyond doubt. If he can't handle this matter, then under the current circumstances, no one can."

The major general said with absolute certainty.

"Then why is he serving his sentence here? I always thought he should be in Qincheng Prison." Su had heard about the incident from a year ago; it was a sensational event.

"Qincheng?" The major general chuckled softly, then said meaningfully, "How many people in the capital wouldn't dare to..."

Before Su Wanyue could ponder this incredibly information-rich sentence, the office door was suddenly pushed open, revealing a tall and slender young man.

The young man was wearing prison clothes and had a short haircut. He looked to be about twenty-four or twenty-five years old, not very old, but his chiseled features were exceptionally strong.

"Are you Chen Liuhe?" Su Wanyue asked, looking at the young man. To be honest, when she saw Chen Liuhe in person, Su Wanyue didn't feel any of the steely resolve a soldier should have. Instead, she felt a kind of lazy, indifferent attitude towards life. She found it hard to imagine that such a carefree prisoner could be any great man.

"Heh, a rare guest indeed, a major general has arrived?" Chen Liuhe casually glanced around, his eyes not lingering long on Su Wanyue, a stunning beauty who could easily earn him a score of 90 or higher. He then casually walked around to the warden's office chair, sat down, picked up a cigarette from the table, lit it, and began to puff away.

Logically speaking, according to strict regulations, all prisoners here must wear handcuffs and leg irons. However, Chen Liuhe is an exception. He never needs to wear those things because many people know that they are useless to him and are just decorations.

If he truly harbors ulterior motives, no prison in the world can stop him!

"To make a long story short, Chen Liuhe, we've encountered a very tricky emergency and we'd like to ask for your help," the major general said, standing up and getting straight to the point.

Chen Liuhe exhaled a smoke ring, his eyes sweeping over Su Wanyue's graceful figure before he said, "You, a major general, are asking me for help? Did I hear that right? Don't you know I'm a convict? If this is what you're here for, then you can go back. I have no interest and no time for it."

The major general was not discouraged. He stared at Chen Liuhe and said, "This matter is of great importance. Only if you come out of retirement can this almost impossible task be accomplished."

After a pause, the major general leaned forward, his hands resting on the table, and said, word by word, "Foreign mercenaries have invaded our country, carried out terrorist activities, and now they want to leave. You were once a soldier, one of the best soldiers. Has this short year in prison worn away all your military spirit?"

"Foreign invasion?" Chen Liuhe raised his eyelids and said, "That's good, just mobilize strong firepower and bombard them with cannon fire, right?"

“If it were that simple, we wouldn’t have come to you.” The major general pointed to Su Wanyue and said, “This is Su Wanyue, the only daughter of Su Weiye, the chairman of Luyuan Group. The mercenaries came to China this time to kidnap Su Weiye. Su Weiye has some important business secrets and technologies in his hands. We must not let Su Weiye be kidnapped out of the country and let foreign forces succeed.”
