Versatile Mage: Undying Fire

Chapter 115: Bone Hunter (Please subscribe~)

After having a meal, everyone followed Zhou Min to the outer city wall.

Zhou Min’s duty point is at the northwest corner of the city. The number of undead in this place is not as many as in the other fronts, so it is very suitable for students of the magic academy to train and brush up their rankings.

A group of people followed Zhou Min to the northwest corner of the city wall. Inside the city wall was a residential area, which was basically composed of low old houses. Looking down from a high place, this large block and the urban area looked like square tofu.

The corner of the city wall is where the west wall and the north wall meet. There is a very spacious road on top of the city wall, and four or five cars can drive side by side on it without any problem.

The city wall is very straight and high, and you can see very far away when standing at the corner of the wall.

The road on the city wall was extremely long and you couldn't see the end at a glance. You could only see the lights on both sides of the road becoming increasingly dense until they were lost in darkness.

At night, you can see groups of mages guarding the city walls along the entire city wall. From time to time, the magic light shines brilliantly in the dark, just like clusters of gorgeous fireworks blooming in the sky, but soon there will be an explosion on the ground outside the city wall, and the flesh and blood of the undead will fly in the darkness in an instant.

"This is the corner tower. Our college students should be inside." Zhou Min led everyone to the corner tower.

The corner tower was built right at the intersection with the city road, probably serving as a place for supply and rest. On top of the corner tower stood a lookout tower, guarded by an eagle wizard. His white eagle stood at the very top of the lookout tower, its wings folded, but its sharp eyes stared at the thick darkness in the distance.

Walking into the corner tower, there are quite a few people walking around inside, including association mages, hunting mages, military mages, traveling mages, students, etc. These people form a small inn, with some setting up stalls to sell medicines, some selling magic tools, or some selling newly acquired spoils.

Everyone walked through the crowd, and Zhou Min soon led everyone to a separate room.

There were a few people sitting in the next room. From their attire, you could tell they were students from the university. They all had school badges on their chests.

Every school has a school badge, but different departments will issue school badges of different colors to indicate the students' departments. The bright stripes on them often represent the level of the mage.

Of course, in addition to the school's wizard badge, the Magic Association, Hunter Union, and the military also have corresponding identity badges. Whether it is to complete a mission or to offer a bounty, the team is very important, and those who can be cleansed are divided into levels and departments. Generally, most mages will wear the wizard badge on their chest.

For example, Zhou Min has been wearing the school badge, and the badge is in the shape of a fire pattern, representing that she is a mid-level fire mage. The two scars in the middle represent that her fire nebula is at the second level, which means that she is a second-level mid-level fire mage.

When Zhou Min was having dinner, she specifically asked Mo Fan and Lin Ran whether they were wearing wizard emblems. As a result, there was nothing on Mo Fan's chest, so she had to use her mind to check directly.

As they walked along, Lin Ran and Mo Fan discovered that everyone on the city road was wearing a magician's badge, as if it was a rule.

Just when Zhou Min was about to introduce Lin Ran and others to his classmates, a very unfriendly voice immediately came out.

"Those who are not wearing the magician's badge please leave immediately. This is not a place for small fry to watch." The person who spoke was the slightly plump man sitting in the middle. His clothes did not look vulgar, and the pride between his brows was not concealed at all.

"Senior Jiang Li, they are all my high school classmates, all mages, and they are here to help me complete my duty." Zhou Min said hurriedly to the slightly plump man with V-shaped eyebrows.

"Then wear the magician's badge. The Magic Association has regulations, so as to avoid being scolded by the judge later." At this time, one of the handsome male students wearing a scarf said.

Mu Bai naturally understood the rules here, so he glanced at Wang Sanpang and Zhao Kunsan and said, "You two should have the Mage Chapter, right?"

The two men immediately took out the Mage's Seal and pinned it on their chests.

Both of them are beginner mages, so there is a clear gap between their mage chapters and those of the people here.

At this time, the guy named Jiang Li frowned and said, "We are the team heading outside the city wall. The minimum requirement is to be a mid-level mage. If you two go down, you will be dinner for the undead."

Zhao Kunsan and Wang Pangzi's faces turned red after hearing what they said, and for a moment they didn't know whether to go or stay.

“It’s okay. You two will support us here on the city wall. Leave the going deeper into the city to us.” Mu Bai said to them hurriedly.

"Okay, okay." Zhao Kunsan nodded repeatedly.

After assigning the two of them, Jiang Li's students stopped talking. He retracted his somewhat dissatisfied look and found that Mo Fan still did not wear the Mage Badge and was chatting with Lin Ran. Lin Ran also did not wear it, so he immediately glared at him and said, "Didn't you hear what I said just now? Are you deaf or what? Do you think this outer city wall is a fun place!"

Zhou Min rushed to dissuade Jiang Li before he finished scolding him. He smiled apologetically at Mo Fan and Lin Ran and said, "It is a rule here that you must wear the magician's badge."

“Your classmates are really unfriendly.” Mo Fan smiled indifferently, then casually took out a mage’s seal from his pocket.

Since he was just going to wear it for a bit, Mo Fan didn’t want to be bored and take out all four of his Mage Chapters. So he drew one like he was drawing lots, and it turned out to be a Shadow Chapter.

“Second Intermediate Level? Turns out he’s an expert.” The handsome student wearing a scarf looked easy-going. He smiled and said to Mo Fan.

"He is the freshman representative of Mingzhu Academy!" Zhou Min immediately added.

“The freshman representative of Mingzhu Academy is only at the second intermediate level? It seems that Mingzhu Academy is nothing special.” Jiang Li immediately sneered, not taking Mo Fan, who is at the second intermediate level of Shadow, seriously at all.

At this time, Lin Ran took out a mid-level summoning badge, but he had not yet exchanged for a high-level one.

"Okay, let's stop talking. The instructions from above should be coming soon." said a man in his thirties wearing the hunter's badge.

This person should be the leader of this student team. After all, they need someone with more experience to command them on how to fight against the undead.

……

“Mo Fan, don’t scare me. You have trained your minor Shadow Element to the second intermediate level. What about your two major elements…” Fatty Wang came closer and asked Mo Fan in a low voice.

"Higher." Mo Fan did not hide anything and answered Wang Sanpang honestly.

Wang Sanpang was stunned by her beauty in an instant!

However, he soon started laughing secretly, and then said to Mo Fan in a sly way, “That senior of Zhou Min is really annoying. Show your true strength later… Hehehehe, you only showed your minor department badge. It turns out that you, Mo Fan, are the best at pretending. You’re really good at pretending!”

"I'm really not pretending, I just picked one at random..."

"Tsk, tsk, I understand."

"Well, I feel like I'm being pretty pretentious."

"It's okay, we have the capital!"

Lin Ran said at this time: "This guy beats people up in school and even got a reputation as a big devil."

Everyone became curious. Lin Ran said something casually, and then Mo Fan rolled his eyes and said, "We both have similar reputations in school. I'm called the Big Devil, and although Lin Ran doesn't have a nickname, his reputation is similar to mine..."

At this time, the dark clouds were so low that they were even about to touch the top of the watchtower above the city wall.

A man in military uniform was sitting on the watchtower, chewing an unlit cigarette in his mouth, and looking lazily at the dim ground in front of him.

He saw several skeletons wandering aimlessly, a few rotten corpses clinging to the city wall trying to climb, and even a few fast-moving ghost corpses scurrying around. In the eyes of the officer, these undead spirits were just like some small animals that he could often see, and his gaze did not linger for even a moment.

"Bah!"

Suddenly, the eagle hovering high in the sky gave a warning cry.

The man in military uniform instantly exhaled the cigarette in his mouth, and his eyes were fixed on the direction indicated by Tianying.

"Uh-oh~~~~~!"

"Uh-oh~~~~~!!"

Two terrifying roars were heard suddenly, and the dry and hard soil like a board suddenly turned over and squirmed, and a creature with bones standing upside down like the huge horns of a bull crawled out of the soil.

The big feet stepped on the ground, the dust shook, and then rolled to the side.

The white skeleton began to move and made a terrifying sound. The pair of blood-red eyes were like two small spotlights, emitting extremely terrifying light! !

As soon as the skeletal creature woke up, it saw the white eagle flying in the sky. It became furious and grabbed a large rock beside it and threw it into the sky.

Sky Eagle reacted very quickly, and dodged the flying rock by tilting its body.

The Sky Eagle did not dare to stay any longer and immediately flew back to the watchtower.

After the man in military uniform locked onto the direction of the skeleton undead, he frowned, then put a communicator to his lips and said in an extremely serious tone: "Attention, a general-level undead appeared in the north-east direction. Attention, a general-level undead appeared in the north-east direction, and it has the intention of damaging the city wall. Please go and destroy it quickly!"

……

The sound quickly spread inside the city wall and also to the room where the students were.

At this time, a hunter mage who was about 30 years old stood up. He glanced at the people in the room who were ready to fight at any time, and then said, "This is a general-level undead. The other teams are all busy with their missions, so we have to deal with this undead."

"Hmph, what's the point of always killing slave-level undead? We should have been asked to deal with general-level undead long ago." Jiang Li laughed, looking impatient.

"We should be able to earn a lot of credits by killing a warrior-level undead!" The female student wrapped in a velvet hat also said very excitedly, and then her eyes stayed on Lin Ran's handsome face for a while.

"Warlord-level undead are all very ferocious, so everyone should be extra careful," warned the team leader, the hunter mage.

"We have no problem. We are just worried that these few people who have just joined are newbies. I hope they won't be scared to the point of peeing their pants." Jiang Li said.

Mo Fan said, “If they are so careless, at least one or two people will die.”

Lin Ran yawned and said, "It was a total annihilation."

……

There are eight people in this team, including the leader, the hunter wizard, the meanest Jiang Li, the handsome water guy, the girl in the velvet hat, Zhou Min, Mo Fan, Mu Bai and Lin Ran. As for Wang Sanpang and Zhao Kunsan, they are responsible for approaching the city wall, as they cannot deal with the general-level creatures.

After they were ready, the Sky Eagle Mage immediately flew in front of them. He glanced at them and said seriously: "Destroy it as soon as possible and never let it get close to the city wall." "Don't worry, it will be no problem for the eight of us mid-level mages to deal with a war general-level undead." said the team leader, the hunter mage.

Originally the team only had five people, but now with the addition of Mo Fan, Mu Bai and Lin Ran, it would be much easier to take down this general-level undead.

"Okay, I will let a team of mages clear a path for you on the city wall, and the rest will depend on you." said the Sky Eagle Mage.

After he finished speaking, a ball of light appeared on the palm of the Sky Eagle Mage's hand, and then he sent this milky white light with golden glow to the sky above the city wall.

As soon as the signal was sent out, a team composed entirely of military mages gathered here. They looked well-trained, wearing uniform military uniforms, and then stood on the city road one after another.

"Directly in front, clean it up immediately!"

The Sky Eagle Mage flew into the air and raised his hand to issue orders to the group of military mages here.

In an instant, all the military mages began to draw star tracks. Eye-catching red light shone on their bodies, and soon they turned into flames.

There are about thirty people here, and all of them are fire mages, each holding a ball of burning flame in their hands.

Thirty flames were thrown down the city wall at the same time, hitting the ground like a small rain of fire, and the undead under the city wall were instantly blasted into black and shattered...

"continue!"

Immediately afterwards, another thirty bursts of fire were thrown in a farther direction. The flames immediately burned the black soil red, turning it into a carpet of fire. The undead gathered below were burned to ashes in an instant.

"Okay, attack!"

When the team leader saw that the cleaning work was completed, he immediately waved his hand and was the first to jump down from the high city wall.

The others were also very courageous and followed the leader to jump outside the city wall.

There were still residual flames burning on the ground beneath their feet. The team of fire magicians on the city wall opened a path for them, allowing them to reach the warrior-level skeleton undead more smoothly and quickly.

The progress was very smooth, because everyone was moving very fast, they soon walked out of the protection range of the fire mage team, and they had to deal with the next undead on their own.

They were all mid-level wizards, and they were very skilled in the use of elementary magic. In order to save magic energy, they basically used elementary magic to deal with slave-level undead. If they saw a small group of undead rushing towards them, they could choose to use mid-level magic.

"This is a ferocious bone demon general. It doesn't have any magical skills, but its body is as hard as steel due to special tempering, and it has immense strength..." The experienced leader quickly identified the species of this undead and told everyone its characteristics.

The Ferocious Bone Demon General is a relatively ferocious type of undead skeleton, and usually requires a very elite team of mid-level mages to deal with it.

In fact, this ferocious bone demon was very close to the city wall, only three hundred meters at most. When the seven people rushed towards it, it also rushed over in an instant.

Mo Fan lowered his voice and said, "Do you want to use all your strength?"

"What are you talking about? These students need to be taught a lesson. They need to respect their opponents. Anyway, I'm just slacking off..." Lin Ran said. The fat man just now was too arrogant, so he needed to see the power of the corpse general.

In the darkness, a red gaze shot over coldly. Just when a few people thought that this guy was still some distance away from them, its white bony body had already crashed towards them like a roaring heavy truck!
"Defense!!! Don't break up the formation, rock barrier!!" the leader, the hunter, shouted in an instant.

The Bone Demon General rushed over fiercely. Even though he hadn't hit anyone yet, the visual impact turned into a wave of fear that hit everyone's mind! ! "Bang~~~~~~!!!"

The seemingly huge rock barrier was shattered in an instant by the impact of the Ferocious Bone Demon General. This defense was obviously not strong enough. The bones of this fierce general-level undead were even several times harder than rocks!
"Damn it, disperse quickly!" When the team leader saw that something was wrong, he hurriedly shouted to the people behind him.

As he spoke, the leader slammed his palms heavily on the ground. Suddenly, a layer of rock ripples appeared in the black soil and then spread rapidly...

The ripples in the rock layer carried the crowd away quickly, but as the ferocious bone demon general rushed through the crowd, the bone spurs on its shoulders that were as thick as horns suddenly broke away from its body and turned into giant bone thorns that stabbed towards the scattered crowd!
"My hand! My hand!!" suddenly the girl in the flannel hat screamed.

A bone spur pierced through her arm like a spear, nailing her directly to the ground, and blood continued to flow from her arm.

Lin Ran took a look and realized that this kind of injury could be cured quickly with a healing wizard.

"Damn, there's something wrong with this Ferocious Bone Demon General!" The team leader looked back at the girl in the hat and cursed in his heart for a moment.

Mu Bai was very close to the girl. He quickly jumped in front of her and grabbed the spear-like bone spur with his frosty hands. In an instant, the icy force began to spread rapidly along the bone spur, not only completely freezing the bone spur, but also freezing the wound on the girl.

Mu Bai clenched his palms fiercely, crushing the two ends of the bone spur that had turned into ice into pieces in an instant, leaving only the part that pierced the girl's arm, which barely stopped her injury.

"What's going on?" Mu Bai asked the girl in the flannel hat hurriedly.

The girl's face was slightly red now, and her frozen arms and wounds had lost sensation. She could no longer feel the pain and gradually calmed down and said, "Much better!"

Mu Bai asked the girl to stand further away, and then he turned around to look at the Ferocious Bone Demon General. A star map appeared under his feet, and he began to draw it skillfully. After a while, three ice chains appeared beside him at the same time.

The ice chains danced wildly and then flew straight towards the Ferocious Bone Demon General. The long chains instantly strangled the lower limbs, arms, and waist of the fierce undead general, preventing him from continuing to use brute force.

"UH OH!!!!"

This ferocious bone demon was incredibly powerful. The ice chains wrapped around it had not yet allowed the freezing power to infect its body, but the monster violently and forcefully tore off all the sturdy chains, and ice chips like broken iron splattered everywhere.

"Get out of the way, let this bastard have a taste of my wind plate!!" Jiang Li shouted at this time.

A strong wind suddenly whistled up, a force of storm mixed with a little black, like a giant black python supporting its body and sweeping forward rapidly.

The cold wind was dancing wildly, and then it hit the body of the Ferocious Bone Demon General fiercely. When the Ferocious Bone Demon General saw the black wind coming, he did not dodge, but directly opened his arms made of bones and slapped the black wind disk forward fiercely!
The wind axis of the mighty wind disk twisted in an instant. As the tremendous force rushed over, the wind disk was disintegrated in an instant, turning into countless thin streams of wind that dispersed to the surroundings.

Afterwards, several more spells were cast upon the ferocious bone demon general, including the red Fiery Fist - Earthly Evil, the purple Thunderbolt - Head Blast, the green Magic Vine - Binding, and the leader's Ice Lock - Bone Grinding...

If it were an ordinary general-level creature, it would be seriously injured even if it didn't die after being attacked by so many mid-level magics. However, as charred black, flames, ice chips, and broken vines scattered from the body of the Ferocious Bone Demon General, everyone realized that the white bones of the Ferocious Bone Demon General were still as hard as steel, and their attacks had no effect at all!
"What kind of defense is this!!" Zhou Min couldn't help but screamed.

Bone Undead are more difficult to deal with than Corpse Undead. Bone Undead are basically tempered by death energy to remove the useless rotten flesh, and then achieve a diamond body. If we use the theory of the superiority of demon bloodline, the bloodline of skeletons is slightly higher than that of corpses. Correspondingly, the general-level skeleton undead are also more difficult to deal with than the general-level corpses.

In the past, the war general-level undead that everyone killed were basically corpse generals. Of course, they had also killed quite a few small corpse generals, but the strength of this bone general was more than one level higher than that of the small corpse generals, making them feel like they had no idea where to start.

"I'm afraid our magic isn't powerful enough to hurt it. Everyone, please step back and think of another way," the team leader said decisively.

"But what should we do if it gets close to the city wall? With its brute strength, it will definitely be able to crash a hole in the outer city wall." Zhou Min said quickly.

"Zhou Min, be careful!"

Just when Zhou Min was worried, he didn't expect that the Ferocious Bone Demon suddenly pulled out the spikes on its body, and then turned them into bone spears and threw them towards Zhou Min!

Zhou Min had never thought that the Bone Demon General would choose to attack her even though he was so far away from her. She was completely unprepared. Even if she summoned the Shield Demon, she was not sure if she could withstand the two whistling bone spears! !

Just as Zhou Min was stunned, a dark shadow suddenly appeared in front of her.

Zhou Min looked closely and found that Mo Fan floated up from the black shadow in a strange posture and then appeared in front of her.

“Mingli Shield!” Mo Fan hurriedly pushed forward with one hand.

A blue light was condensing in front of his palm in an instant. First, it formed a very bright diamond-shaped shield, and then the skeleton of the shield quickly solidified in the light!
In a moment, the dark blue metallic shield appeared in front of Mo Fan. The shield was deeply embedded in the ground, just high enough to completely protect Mo Fan.

"Keng!!!"

The sharp bone spear stabbed forward, with amazing penetrating power. Mo Fan's Nether Shield was also a good high-end product, but the bone spear sank into the thick shield of the Nether Shield in an instant and was almost pierced through.

"Hey~! Now is not the time to be infatuated." Lin Ran grabbed a bone spur with his fair palm and threw it fiercely at the Bone Hunting Demon General.

"Crack!" The bone spur pierced the Bone Hunter's chest cleanly and neatly.

Zhou Min looked at Lin Ran in surprise. At this time, Lin Ran said, "Demons and undead are both very powerful. Don't underestimate them just because they are of the same level... Well, now its strength should be greatly reduced. It is a good test target. Go ahead! Attack Girl."

Zhou Min nodded. It seemed that she was still not careful enough.

At this time, Mo Fan said, "You are so hypocritical. Could you have helped block the girl just now?"

Lin Ran looked at Mo Fan and said, "Only when you feel the pain can you remember it more firmly."

Mo Fan curled his lips and said, "Then I'm going to do it."

Lin Ran spread his hands and said, "Go ahead, Pikachu~."

After hearing Lin Ran's words, Mo Fan looked at Lin Ran.

Then Mo Fan turned around.

Mo Fan exhaled, then gathered his strength in his fist, and then suddenly swung it out.

Mo Fan's fist cut through the air, flames sprouted in an instant, and soon formed a huge flaming fist.

“Fiery Fist!!!” Mo Fan delivered a powerful Fiery Fist that sent the Bone Hunter flying.

After seeing Mo Fan's flame, the fat man was a little surprised, because Mo Fan's Fiery Fist was far superior to others, and there were very few people in the school who had such flames. Of course, what was even more surprising was Lin Ran. This man actually used his hands to catch the bone spur attack of the Bone Hunter Demon General. He must have a top-grade magic tool.

It seems that he underestimated them. Of course, this time he also realized the terrifying power of the Bone General. He should be as careful as possible when dealing with these creatures in the future.

Zhou Min exhaled and said, "Let's continue!"

Lin Ran nodded and said, "Come on, I will use Guangyou to protect you."
