Versatile Mage: Undying Fire

Chapter 288 Power Bank

"Have you recovered your magic power?" Lin Ran said to Mu Nujiao who was standing beside him.

“Well, I plan to help Mo Fan as a training.” Mu Nujiao had basically been using Lin Ran’s magic power before, and had used very little for herself, so she was able to recover so quickly.

She saw Mo Fan standing alone at the intersection. Mo Fan did not use much other types of magic, and he used high-level magic very rarely. Lightning was striking wildly and explosively. Even the Green Helmeted Leopard Sting with armor could not withstand Mo Fan's Tyrant Thunder, which was twelve times more powerful.

Mu Nujiao hurried over to help.

With the help of Mu Nujiao, all the Green Helmeted Leopard Stingers in this nest were completely wiped out soon. However, Zheng Tong was still fighting at this time. The number of kills by this guy was not even a fraction of Mo Fan's. If you look closely, he even killed less than Mu Nujiao who came later.

"It feels like he can handle them all by himself. This is just the strength of the second place in the World Academy Competition. The second place is so abnormal! Then what about the first place?" In the team, Li Sizhong's heart was in turmoil, and his eyes were also looking at Lin Ran. This guy looked like he wanted to come for vacation.

Strong, these young guys are much stronger than these old guys. The Green Helmeted Leopard Stings of high level in front of them were slaughtered casually by Mo Fan and Mu Nujiao like chickens and sheep. Jiang Shaoxu's powerful spiritual cultivation also made them not have to fight much along the way, and the others also showed strong fighting power. No wonder they were able to win the first place this time.

At this moment, everyone understood that Zhang Xiaohou, Mu Nujiao, Jiang Shaoxu and others were not here for vacation at all, because their fighting power was likely to be even more abnormal than that of their team.

"Mo Fan, please step back first. I will heal your wounds." Li Sizhong, who was in charge of logistics, said immediately when he found that Mo Fan was injured. Mo Fan's strength is worthy of people's admiration.

"I don't need it. You go and check on their condition. These stingers are poisonous and need to be dealt with immediately." Mo Fan said.

The Green Helmets and Leopard Stings in these two nests have been basically dealt with. Mo Fan killed most of them by himself. Anyway, wherever his lightning goes, these monsters will die. If Zheng Tong and his men had not had a very hard time fighting them, they would probably think that these Green Helmets and Leopard Stings are not even as good as slaves.

“You are really strong. After such a battle, you only have some minor injuries… I see that you mostly use mid-level magic, so I guess you didn’t consume much magic energy?” Lu Fang now has a new respect for Mo Fan. The strength of these young people is really abnormal.

Lin Ran and his friends have such high levels of cultivation at such a young age, and it is these old hunters who are still self-righteous who are the ones to be ashamed of.

In fact, Lu Fang was fine, but Zheng Tong's face looked very ugly. Although the crisis was resolved, he now felt more uncomfortable than being surrounded by the Green Helmet Leopard Stings!

Along the way, he had often ridiculed Lin Ran and Mo Fan for doing nothing.

It’s not that Mo Fan doesn’t want to do anything, but he is a battle mage, and he is a directionless person. He has Ge Ming to command, the wind mage to advance, and Zhang Xiaohou to explore the way. So he really didn’t have anything to do before. He could only brag with Lin Ran and looked very idle.

It would have been fine if he didn't take action, but once he did, he scared the old hunters to death. It seemed that even if their captain Ge Ming was here, his killing speed might not be much faster than this guy!
"What are you looking at?" When Lingling found that everyone else was admiring Mo Fan, she discovered that Lin Ran's eyes fell on a woman. This woman was not very pretty, but she had a very good figure, and even her breasts were a few centimeters bigger than Jiang Shaoxu's.

"Lingling is still young indeed." Lin Ran sighed.

Ling Ling's face darkened, she kicked Lin Ran and said, "Don't be such a hooligan."

“I’m sorry, brother Mo Fan. We were very much against you joining the team before. We didn’t expect that you all are so capable. We’ve offended you a lot before. We hope you don’t take it too seriously.” Lu Fang smiled, with a bit of admiration on his face.

“Students from academies don’t really have much practical experience, so it’s normal for you to oppose us at first.” Mo Fan said with a smile. He found that everyone’s attitude was completely different from before, so he felt more refreshed.

Damn it, I have been silent for so long, isn't it just to wait for an opportunity to make these idiots dumbfounded? Refreshed, he looked at Lin Ran and raised his eyebrows, as if to say what?
Lin Ran ignored Mo Fan. Mo Fan followed Lin Ran's gaze and saw the top-grade weapon. Was he displaying munitions?
……

Everyone rested for a while, and soon they found another group of demons running over from a distance. The demons that appeared this time were a bit weaker than the Green Helmet Leopard Sting, and there were not too many of them, so Mo Fan and Mu Nujiao worked together to deal with them.

This time, Yang Bao and Tong Zhuang did not take action, because they killed very slowly, so it was better for them to conserve their strength in the formation with the others, and then come out to help when their numbers were larger.

Zheng Tong was now very dissatisfied. He wanted to overshadow Mo Fan. He used high-level magic several times, but his destructive power was not even as strong as Mo Fan's fifth-level Thunderbolt·Electric Chain plus Tyrant Punishment. As a result, Zheng Tong's self-esteem suffered a huge blow!
Low-level, mid-level, high-level, and super-level, the power of each level of magic differs by about ten times, and the power of some different types of magic differs even more. The power of a mid-level magic of someone he had always looked down upon was even more powerful than his high-level power. This gap made him feel like he was about to collapse. He even wished he could abandon all his cultivation because it was too embarrassing.

In the end, Zheng Tong was exhausted from the battle, but Mo Fan was still fighting leisurely. Mo Fan didn't need to waste other magic power, the destructive power of lightning was enough to run rampant in this dangerous desert. What made Zheng Tong collapse the most was that Mu Nujiao's fighting power was much stronger than his.

"Is everyone okay!!"

Suddenly, Ge Ming's voice came from behind the group.

Ge Ming came to the front of the team. To be honest, he had a very ominous premonition because everyone looked very strange. Could it be that someone had been killed in the battle?

"Captain, how did you get to know this little brother? He can easily deal with those demons that are rushing over by himself, and we don't even need to take any action. I thought it was going to be a fierce battle, but unexpectedly he would just be sitting here basking in the sun." Tong Zhuang, who seldom spoke, spoke at this time.

Ge Ming heaved a sigh of relief when he found that no one had died. He then set his sights on the battle that Mo Fan was finishing. Mu Nujiao quickly walked up to Lin Ran and said, "How am I getting stronger?"

"Yeah." Lin Ran nodded. This was not perfunctory. She had really become stronger.

Ge Ming on the side looked at Mo Fan and the others. He actually had never seen Lin Ran and the others fight, and he had not watched the World Academy Competition either. If he hadn't seen the corpses destroyed by lightning all over the ground, it would have been enough to prove that Mo Fan's combat power was very strong. It was really lucky that he brought them here this time.

“Once we were trying to siege the Black Church, and we fell into their trap. Then Brother Mo Fan helped us out,” Ge Ming said.

“Oh oh oh!!! I remember that Han Ji, the president of the Clock Tower Magic Association, once made public a piece of information. Could it be that he was referring to this Mo Fan brother?” Lu Fang suddenly thought of something and said in surprise.

"Yes, it's him." Ge Ming nodded.

"Oh my god, why didn't you tell me earlier, Captain?"

"I thought you all knew..."

"How could we possibly know? We never care about these things. We would just dive into the woods and fight the monsters!"

"No wonder they are so powerful. With strong men like them in the team, we will feel more assured on the road ahead... But, I didn't expect them to be so young. This makes us old guys ashamed!"

Although it was particularly difficult to deal with this time because the others had exhausted their magic power, the combat power of Mo Fan alone was too exaggerated. Many high-level mages with domains they had seen were not as strong as Mo Fan!

"Do you feel that Mo Fan is stronger than during the competition?" Jiang Shaoxu asked Lin Ran.

Lin Ran nodded. Everyone was making progress.

Mu Nujiao also nodded heavily.

They all knew how powerful Mo Fan was, but when they saw him take action this time, they found that he seemed to have undergone an incomprehensible transformation.

"It may be the Divine Seal Blessing that allowed him to obtain a very high basic power. Look at his thunder... It feels like it is one level higher than the soul seed." Jiang Shaoxu said.

"really!"

Mu Nujiao sighed, and was thinking that if she couldn't catch up with Lin Ran, she should be able to catch up with Mo Fan, but this guy's strength was improving very quickly.

The collection went smoothly afterwards, and a map of a five-kilometer radius was drawn in a short while. Mo Fan looked at Lingling's computer and found that there were many purple and black dots behind the map. This indicated that the number of dust storm grasshoppers had reached a terrifying level!
"Let's go quickly, these guys are not far from us!" Ge Ming said to everyone with a lingering fear after looking at the Dust Storm Grasshopper.

With this monster distribution map, they can quickly choose a new route.

Everyone quickened their pace. Although the Dust Grasshoppers were not attacking in their direction, the scope of the entire grasshopper disaster was still very wide. If they did not get out, they would be eaten to the point where not even a bone would be left.

……

After they had walked about three kilometers, a heat wave hit them in the face, making them feel uncomfortable all over.

When they looked back, they found that the Dust Grasshoppers had covered the area where they were just now. These evil demons had no interest in the Green-Helmed Leopard Stingers living nearby. They even provided a perfect umbrella of protection for the Green-Helmed Leopard Stingers' territory, making it almost in a state of having no natural enemies, so there were a lot of them.

The heat waves in the desert were getting hotter and hotter, even every grain of sand was scorching hot, as if they were in a steamer. It was a great torment for them.

Because it is too hot, the ice and water mages need to constantly use some small skills to help everyone cool down. There are a lot of people, so the water mages and ice mages need to constantly consume magic energy. After a long time, they will also lose their combat effectiveness.

"We are probably almost at the old post station. There are still some hunters in other old post stations, but this post station has been around for more than ten years. There are monsters all along the way, and it is extremely dangerous. I guess this post station is basically abandoned." Ge Ming said.

"Well, at least we have to put up a flag. Without the traces of us human mages, wouldn't this place completely become a demon place?"

"It should be just ahead." Tong Li, who came with them, said immediately.

Tong Li is very familiar with the desert, and he can easily find things buried under the sand.

They followed the safe route and when they reached the Oasis Station, they could take a rest. After all, the location of the station was well chosen, which meant that it would not be too hot and there would be plants and water.

This post station is built with stones. Looking from a distance, you will find that half of it is covered by sand, and some wooden houses are exposed on the outside, with the eaves less than half a meter from the sand.

After Tong Li arrived here, he ran in quickly, as if he was looking for something.

There are no monsters at the station, and the oasis is just a small cluster of hardy plants, not even as good as a small park in the city, so the heat hasn't been reduced much.

"The Flame Mountains are not far from here. After all, the temperature here is unusual." Lingling said to Lin Ran.

Lingling was detecting along the way. Although she couldn't use an element detector, she could use some normal temperature instruments. The hot wind was blowing from the north of this post station. An old hunter said that he saw the Flame Mountains here, so it should not be far away.

“Yes.” Mo Fan, who was listening nearby, nodded and called Zhang Xiaohou over, “Monkey, go to the north and try to go as far as possible.”

"No problem, Brother Fan, then let's split up here and fight them." Zhang Xiaohou said.

“They should go west. After all, they are here to open up new land, so they need to go deeper into the desert. This post was once a safe place for many hunters and the military…” said Mo Fan.

"I'm still in good physical condition, so I'll go to the north now," said Zhang Xiaohou.

"Well, be careful." Mo Fan warned.

Afterwards, Zhang Xiaohou headed north, while the others stayed at the post station to rest.

He didn't use flying right away, because flying in the desert was not a wise option unless you were extremely powerful.

About a kilometer away from the post station, Zhang Xiaohou discovered that the place was no longer entirely sand. Gradually, he could see some dark-colored rocks. These were the rocks that had been scorched by the high temperature and had many cracks. There were even faint flames coming out of these cracks.

Seeing these flames surging, Zhang Xiaohou's heart suddenly became happy. It seemed that they had come to the right place.

The thing that can make the temperature of this desert reach such a high level must be a very rare and turbulent holy land of fire elements. Such places are often natural factories of spirit seeds and soul seeds, and there will be a large number of them. If they really discover the holy land of elements, then they will really become prosperous all of a sudden!
"There is a cave here. Could there be some demon in it?" Zhang Xiaohou quickly climbed to the top of the rock layer and found a small cave facing the direction of the post station.

The cave was not deep and did not look like a place where any big demons could hide. Zhang Xiaohou walked inside and found that the small cave was covered with some animal skins. There were even some burnt food on the skins. There were also many rusty daily necessities, such as knives, flints, and iron pots...

Just when Zhang Xiaohou thought that this was something left behind by the hunters who had been at the post station before, he suddenly felt a burning sensation on his back.

dangerous!!

Zhang Xiaohou dodged with his reaction ability, and then he saw a ball of hot flame flying by and then hitting the rocks in the cave, blowing them to pieces in an instant.

Zhang Xiaohou turned around and found a dark-skinned man wearing only animal-skin pants standing outside the cave. His body was covered with extremely messy hair and his beard also covered his face, leaving only a pair of eyes like a wild beast, staring at Zhang Xiaohou intently.

The remaining flames also illuminated the cave, and the savage saw Zhang Xiaohou's appearance clearly. Then he couldn't help but be stunned, staring at Zhang Xiaohou with blank eyes.

"People...people?" The man's speech was a little unclear, as if he had forgotten the language.

"Who are you and why are you still living here?" Zhang Xiaohou was also very surprised.

I just saw that all the daily utensils showed signs of use, probably because they were used by this person.

"I I I I, you you you, army, my army, here, madam..." The savage man seemed to have forgotten the language, and he couldn't speak a complete sentence for a long time.

After some difficult communication, the wild man took out a medal from the cave and handed it to Zhang Xiaohou.

When Zhang Xiaohou saw the medal, he couldn't help but salute and said, "So you are also a soldier."

When the savage man saw Zhang Xiaohou's salute, his body suddenly trembled. Then he raised his hand suddenly and returned a standard military salute.

"How long have you been trapped here?" Looking at this wild man, Zhang Xiaohou's heart suddenly surged.

"I...don't know..." The savage man shook his head.

"Well..., this place has been buried for eleven years, so you have lived here alone for a full eleven years?" Zhang Xiaohou asked in a low voice.

When asked this question, the savage man burst into tears!

Lin Ran watched Mo Fan chatting animatedly with the woman who had displayed the munitions earlier. He didn't know what they were talking about. He also wanted to go, but Mu Nujiao was replenishing his magic energy from him, so he couldn't leave. Ever since she knew that Lin Ran's light system could transform the sun's light, she treated Lin Ran as a magic energy charger.

It seems that Zhang Xiaohou went to explore the way.

Sorry... I took two days off. I wish you all a happy and healthy new January.
