"This can't go on. Once these plants shrink back, aren't we just waiting to die here?" Zhao Manyan said with some fear.

This guy can usually act cool and suave, but when it comes to life and death, he's clearly most genuine. Survival is the only thing that matters!

"Does anyone have demon-slaying tools?" Mu Ningxue asked.

At this point, naturally no one held back. Mingcong stepped forward and had his ice-type users freeze the vines, then he took out his light-type demon-slaying tool.

With the help of the demon-slaying tools, the vines shattered with a single strike. Everyone immediately ran downstairs...

The moment everyone stepped downstairs, before they even had a chance to get outside, they immediately felt the entire building start to shake!

The violent shaking caused them to lose their balance and fall to the ground, and at that moment, concrete strips, steel bars, and other debris began to fall from above...

Everyone quickly gathered together, and then they all unleashed light magic, water magic, earth magic, and ice magic.

It was shaking so badly, it felt like the whole building was about to collapse. In this situation, there was no other way but to defend it as a group.

Fortunately, while they were shaking, no more vines were attacking them...

After a violent shaking, the vines stopped moving completely, and everyone steadied themselves before running outside, covered in dust and dirt.

.....

90. Exposing Lu Zhenghe

But what no one expected was that the moment the shaking stopped, it began to collapse!

"Run, run!"

When they sensed the collapse was imminent, everyone began to run frantically outside.

However, someone, acting like a fool, shouted out...

The building collapsed in the opposite direction, but the shockwave still swept over. No one cared what was happening; they rushed out of the deadly municipal building despite the impact of the towering structure.

"We're here!" Bai Tingting, who was outside, shouted joyfully when she saw that everyone had escaped safely.

After they came out, apart from Cao Le who was still standing, even Mu Ningxue collapsed to the ground.

Clearly, I just used up a lot of energy...

Come to think of it, she was continuously casting ice magic from the second floor to the first floor.

"Damn it! Who the hell said we were going to this building?!"

After resting for a while, someone suddenly asked a question.

And with this question, everyone immediately turned their attention to Mo Fan.

Sure enough, Mo Gouzi is always the first to be disliked!

However, he seemed too lazy to bother arguing with idiots and didn't pay them any attention at all.

Maybe it's just a habit?

Zhao Manyan asked curiously, "What just happened? First, there were those strange vines, and then the building suddenly shook?"

He didn't think Mo Fan wanted to harm them.

After all, this doesn't do him any good.

Bai Tingting, looking lingeringly frightened, recounted to everyone how the Commander-level Giant Lizard and the Warrior-level Plant-type Demon had appeared.

Hearing that there were demon generals was bad enough, but then he discovered that there were even demons at the commander level.

Luo Song immediately said, "What kind of hellhole is this? I want to go back!"

"Me too, this place is terrifying. Has Dean Songhe lost his mind? He actually sent us here. Look at what we've encountered, it's far beyond what we can handle right now!" Liao Mingxuan immediately echoed.

In fact, none of the others had any intention of continuing the training.

Seeing demons is indeed a good thing.

But there are demons at the commander level here!

Is this something they can handle?

"It seems the Hunter Alliance's information was wrong. The danger here is far greater than the data suggests! However, we're probably just unlucky to have encountered such powerful monsters all at once. Everyone, be careful from now on, and we should be able to complete the mission smoothly." Seeing that everyone was about to retreat, Lu Zhenghe hurriedly spoke up to dissuade them.

Once he spoke, those at Pearl Academy who didn't know the situation were left out.

However, Liao Mingxuan, Xu Dalong, and others from the Imperial Academy were somewhat puzzled.

Is this the same Lu Zhenghe they know?

"Lu Zhenghe, I'm quite curious. The appearance of a commander-level demon here already means that construction can no longer be resumed. Why do you still want to stay?"

"And what are you trying to do with all these things you left behind along the way?"

As Cao Le spoke, he took out all the markings that Lu Zhenghe had left behind. Then, he threw them directly on the ground.

Upon seeing what Cao Le had taken out, Jingjing immediately recognized it and exclaimed, "This...this is a signal device used by the military for marking?"

Cao Le nodded, then said, "Lu Zhenghe, I think your Dean Songhe already made it clear when we came that there would be no protection during this training. So, what are you planning to do with all of this? And what are the people following behind planning to do?"

When Lu Zhenghe saw that everyone was looking at him, he didn't know how to respond for a moment.

"I...I...."

Lu Zhenghe stammered, unsure how to explain.

Especially when he saw Mu Ningxue looking over, he had no choice but to admit, "My brother Lu Nian wanted to ask Mo Fan to do something, and I wanted him to help me defeat you, so I left a mark on him..."

Upon hearing this, Cao Le pretended to think for a moment, then looked at Mo Fan and said, "I think his brother probably knows about your dual-element birth and wants you to be his guinea pig."

A member of the Military Intelligence Bureau followed us here furtively.

The fact that they specifically mentioned looking for Mo Fan suggests there's something fishy going on. Plus, Mo Fan recently revealed his dual-elemental nature...

The other party is definitely not working for the country; otherwise, why would they need to do this?

Mo Fan immediately realized something was wrong, and then looked at Lu Zhenghe and said, "You idiot, do you want me dead?"

"Heh... Mo Fan, I've told you not to get too cocky. Look at you, aren't you being watched now?" Luo Song said sarcastically.

Lu Zhenghe hurriedly explained, "No...no, my brother's main purpose is to help me defeat Cao Le...he won't do anything to you, and besides, there are so many people here."

"What do you think is the best way to shut us all up in front of a high-level mage?" Cao Le asked, looking at the crowd, following Lu Zhenghe's words.

"You...you mean, he wants to kill us all?" Song Xia asked.

“Since Mo Fan is being used as a guinea pig, and it wasn’t even approved by the government, and they were secretly following him, then this matter is obviously something that can’t be brought to light. Since it can’t be brought to light, and it’s happening in the wild, why would he let those of us who witnessed everything leave so peacefully?” Cao Le added.

Although Cao Le was only analyzing, he left Lu Zhenghe with no room for explanation.

Actually, he now has some doubts about whether his older brother really came to help him defeat Cao Le.

A military intelligence agency...

Would he help someone who is just a little kid to him?

Moreover, before he came, his brother had repeatedly told him not to reveal his whereabouts...

"Damn, if that's how you put it, his brother is a complete madman. What should we do?" Zhao Manyan was already getting angry.

He didn't want to encounter such a madman. After all, he still had more money than he could spend in several lifetimes, and many young women in dire straits were waiting for him to rescue them. How could he die?

It wasn't just Zhao Manyan who was afraid; almost everyone present was unafraid.

They couldn't even imagine the best possible outcome... because, to them, this sounded like the best possible result for Lu Zhenghe's brother!

"I've already deactivated these trackers, what are you afraid of?" Cao Le said nonchalantly.

“It’s… no use…” Just then, before everyone could breathe a sigh of relief, Lu Zhenghe said.

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at him.

“Once this kind of tracker is turned on, it will immediately show up. Even if it is destroyed, they will still know the original marker point…” Lu Zhenghe wasn’t stupid; he understood everything now.

However, he still couldn't bring himself to die with his classmates whom he had spent so much time with.

...

91. I ran into Lu Nian again.

Cao Le, who had been in complete control of the situation, was completely taken aback after hearing what Lu Zhenghe said!

The others were also in a state of panic, with some even suggesting that everyone should scatter and escape...

However, the suggestion was immediately rejected.

There was no other way; this was demon territory. If they separated here, even if they didn't run into Lu Nian's group of military mages, they would likely die at the hands of the demons...

"Cao Le, do you have any other ideas?" Zhao Manyan asked.

After all, judging from Cao Le's analysis and judgment, he was clearly a smart person. That's why he looked at Cao Le.

When Zhao Manyan asked his question, everyone else looked at him as well.

"There's some ridiculous idea. Didn't you hear what this idiot said? Even if the tracker is destroyed, it will still be detected when it's turned on." Cao Le was speechless!

He never imagined that this thing could still be used even after it was destroyed.

Moreover, all the so-called analysis before was just based on things we already knew.

I initially thought I could save a few more people, but now it seems like it's really going to be a lot of trouble!

Actually, there is a way. We can have Mo Fan take the tracker to a place and mark it... then lure Lu Nian and the others to chase after him. After finding Mo Fan, we can give him a Bloodstone and have him kill them all.

But is such a thing even possible?

Even if I told him that I would have great power, he probably wouldn't believe me at all.

Upon hearing Cao Le's words, the group couldn't help but feel a sense of despair.

Mu Ningxue suggested, "If his brother is just tracking us, then we can take a detour to leave. That way we won't be discovered."

The survey of this desolate city could be considered complete upon encountering the giant lizard chieftain. Their mission was thus accomplished.

No one would choose to rebuild a city in a place inhabited by a ruler-level demon.

After all, the existence of a leader means that a demon race is stationed here!
