Versatile Mage: Undying Fire

Chapter 293 Cruelty
For a long time, Lin Feili felt that Shi Qianshou didn't really want to kill all of them. Shi Qianshou just wanted to get the Core of the Earth, and he didn't expect this to happen. He just wanted to scare the old captain...

But Lin Feili was wrong. Shi Qianshou didn't care about the life and death of others at all. He only wanted the Core of the Earth. As a soldier, he had his own private army. He also wanted to build a city in this desert full of dangers but wealth, and then become the king of the desert here!
Over the years, his private army has become very large, which shows that he has never given up the Core of the Earth, and there is no fixed guilt or regret in his heart! !
"The time has come, say goodbye to your new friend... Oh, I forgot to tell you that your friend is a military commander in Qinling. Despite his age, he has made outstanding achievements and is also a hero of the ancient capital. He has saved millions of people in the ancient capital. Tsk tsk tsk, if he had been given a few more years, he should be able to reach the same military rank as me. Such a promising man is ruined here because of you, a tight-lipped idiot." Military commander Shi Qianshou said with false compassion at this time.

Lin Feili was also stunned, his eyes fixed on Zhang Xiaohou.

Lin Feili had never expected that Zhang Xiaohou was already a military commander at such a young age and had saved so many people.

"I can tell you, but can you promise to let them go?" Lin Feili took a deep breath and said to Shi Qianshou.

"It's natural."

"But they all know your crimes, I don't think you will leave any survivors." Lin Feili said.

"Hahaha, Lin Feili, you are really stupid. It happened eleven years ago. Who would care? Even if someone wants to care, who can prove that I did it? I am now a high and mighty military commander. As long as there is no hard evidence, no one can do anything to me even if I go to a military court! So what if they heard it? They heard an old story, but it is not evidence, it's just a story." Shi Qianshou burst into laughter. He did not take other people present seriously at all, not even Ge Ming.

Although Ge Ming is also a super-class wizard, but in terms of position and actual power, how could this small leader of the Gold War Group Hunter Group in front of him be compared with him, a dignified military commander?

"Then let them go and I will tell you!" Lin Feili said.

"Okay, Zheng Tong, Tong Zhuang, release them..."

"Let them go first." Zhang Xiaohou pointed at the two girls from the hunter group.

"I didn't expect you to be so heroic. Okay, then let them go." Shi Qianshou waved his hand casually. He ignored the two women, even though they were pretty.

But compared with a city that is about to be built, and compared with the power to control hundreds of thousands or even millions of people, these women are not worth Shi Qianshou's concern at all.

"I have now released these women as you requested, so now you should also tell me about the Core of the Earth, right?" Military Commander Shi Qianshou said slowly.

"They have nothing to do with this matter. I don't want any of them to die." Lin Feili said.

"I know you want to save everyone, but as long as you tell me the Core of the Earth, I won't care whether these people live or die." Shi Qianshou said.

"Lord Military Commander, I told you before that there are still a few people who have not been controlled. They are quite powerful. The women you released are likely to go find them." Zheng Tong said.

"Are there any super-class mages?" Shi Qianshou asked.

"It's probably because I don't know his cultivation level."

"How old are you?" Shi Qianshou asked back.

"Similar to Zhang Xiaohou."

"That's only a high-level one at most. There's no need to care about such a small character."

"Yes, Sir!" Zheng Tong said stiffly, "I'm just afraid they will cause trouble."

"Lin Feili, you should tell me the direction of the Core of the Earth. I know it must be near this pile of black rocks..." said Shi Qianshou.

"In that direction." At this time, Lin Feili pointed to one of the rugged rock walls.

Shi Qianshou waved his hand, and immediately an officer trotted towards the rock wall, then quickly took out a very sophisticated instrument and inspected it.

After a while, the instrument emitted light, and Shi Qianshou's eyes immediately lit up.

Lin Feili did not lie to himself. The Core of the Earth was indeed here, but that rock was different from the surrounding black rocks.

"Keep releasing them, or you'll never find the Core of the Earth," Lin Feili said.

"Okay, but in order to prevent you from cheating, I will only keep this guy until the end." Shi Qianshou grabbed Zhang Xiaohou and said with a sneer.

Lin Feili looked at Shi Qianshou angrily. Now he could only walk towards the rock himself. He pressed his hands on the rock wall. Suddenly, a dark brown halo quickly spread out, and a layer of restriction that was almost invisible to the naked eye gradually dissipated. The thick rock layers suddenly became soft and then turned into mud.

The mud flowed out quickly, revealing a long passage.

Tong Zhuang escorted Zhang Xiaohou and Lin Feili into the dark passage. Shi Qianshou then waved his hand and a military squad followed in immediately. With someone leading the way, Shi Qianshou walked forward with confidence.

When they were about to enter the entrance, Shi Qianshou immediately turned around to look at the other officers, then glanced at the remaining prisoners and said, "Zhang Qihu, you stay here and guard. If anyone else comes in, just kill them!"

"Yes!" Zhang Qihu immediately saluted and said in a very serious tone.

"General Shi, are you really going to let those guys go like this? Even though they are not to be feared, they will definitely cause us some troubles..." Zheng Tong's eyes were fierce, and he made it clear that he didn't want to leave any trouble behind.

In fact, he was even more unwilling to let these women run away, and the woman he wanted to possess the most was also hanging out with someone else outside. He wanted to use Shi Qianshou to kill Lin Ran. In this desert, strength is everything, and no one would know even if they committed any sins!

"Do you think I am a kind-hearted person? Don't worry, they won't have far to go and there will be something to treat them." Shi Qianshou then showed his palm, and there was a layer of poisonous light flickering faintly on his palm.

When Zheng Tong saw this, he was surprised and said, "I've heard that you, Shi Junsi, can control the insect swarm. Could it be that you can also command the dust storm grasshoppers outside?"

Shi Qianshou smiled.

"Those women who were let go..." Zheng Tong asked in a low voice.

"They can't survive." Shi Qianshou glanced at Zheng Tong, then raised his lips slightly and said, "You are a typical person who can't achieve anything great. Although women are good, they can only satisfy temporary needs. When you sit in a certain position, you will know that compared with power, women are just vassals."

"Master Junsi is right, but I think it's a pity that they died like this." Zheng Tong said.

"You performed quite well this time, otherwise it would be really troublesome for us to enter this desert safely. As long as you get the Core of the Earth, you will get everything you want. But before that, if someone can die, don't let him live. Dead people are what I feel most at ease with." Shi Qianshou said.

“Yes, yes!”…

Outside the stone mountain, three women ran quickly towards the Flaming Mountains.

They need to tell Lin Ran and the others about the situation here as soon as possible because their relatives are also inside.

"By the way, Xiaoxiao, we haven't found Xiaoxiao yet. I hope she's okay!" A busty woman suddenly remembered something and hurriedly said to the two people beside her.

"Xiaoxiao is smart. She should have found a place to hide, but I'm afraid she won't be able to hold on..." said a tall and long-legged man.

The three of them were in a panic, not knowing whether to look for Lin Ran first or to look for the missing Xiaoxiao.

But at this moment, a very slender figure stood out. She had a ponytail, a cloak on her body, and a pair of big eyes that did not look messy at all even in such a harsh environment.

"Tell me what happened first." Xiaoxiao walked over and said calmly.

"It's a good thing you're okay, otherwise we wouldn't know how to explain to the team leader!" The busty girl was delighted.

When the army surrounded them before, Xiaoxiao suddenly disappeared, and no one knew how she realized that something was wrong.

Fortunately, Shi Qianshou, Zheng Tong and Tong Zhuangren did not take Xiaoxiao seriously. They thought that if a little girl like her wandered around here, she would soon be eaten by monsters. They were also worried about this. Unexpectedly, Xiaoxiao's body was still white and clean, and it seemed that she even had time to comb her hair neatly. It can be seen that this little girl is not a mediocre person.

"The soldier inside is called Shi Qianshou, right?" Xiaoxiao asked.

"Well, I never thought that he was the one who buried the post station. How could there be such a cruel person!" said the slim girl angrily.

"What's going on inside?" Xiaoxiao asked again

"Lin Feili has brought Shi Qianshou into a passage, which may be the place leading to the Core of the Earth. Zhang Xiaohou and the team leader Ge Ming have been taken hostage by them. Lu Fei, Yang Bao, Xu Pingdong and others from the Golden War Hunter Group are in that rocky valley, being guarded by a large group of officers." said the big-chested man.

"It's a bit strange." Xiaoxiao muttered after hearing this.

"Strange, is there something strange?" the slim girl asked puzzled.

"Logically speaking, Shi Qianshou shouldn't let you live so easily, but he let you go so easily. It's really weird..." Xiaoxiao said. After interacting with Lingling for a while, she found that she would imitate Lingling's thinking.

"...You little girl, you really can't kill us!" said the slim girl angrily.

The big-breasted girl had the same doubts.

No matter how rampant Shi Qianshou is, he is just a member of the military. If his actions here are exposed, he as a military commander will be sentenced to death, and all his private army will be brought to a military court!
"Buzz buzz buzz!!!"

Suddenly a noisy sound came from the other side of the mountain, and it became clearer and clearer.

Several people raised their heads and looked at the undulating rocky mountains. Soon they discovered that a large group of things like sand and dust were coming towards them. They immediately understood what was going on.

"Sure enough, this Shi Qianshou has no intention of letting you guys live. This guy should be a poison-class mage, and the fact that the Duststorm Grasshoppers make their nest here may be related to him." Xiaoxiao said.

"Oh my God, how did these dust storm grasshoppers fly here? Aren't they supposed to stay away from the post station?" the slender girl screamed.

The dust storm grasshoppers scared several people so much that their faces turned pale. They could clearly feel that these dust storm grasshoppers were coming directly towards them. This was very strange.

"Shi Qianshou may have left some poison mark on your bodies, and this poison mark will attract dust storm grasshoppers. You should run towards the Flame Mountains now. This mountain may be able to save your lives, but you must get there before they catch up with you. Fortunately, there is fire there... Then I'll go first, and you three are on your own." Xiaoxiao jumped and turned around, then quickly moved away from them.

The three of them looked at Xiaoxiao's fleeing back and suddenly came to their senses.

No way, she just abandoned them? ?
The number of dust storm grasshoppers was very large. How could they resist them with their strength? Seeing that the dust storms were getting closer and closer, they didn't dare to stay at all and ran madly towards the Fire Demon Mountain.

……

Xiaoxiao ran in another direction. She was a wind mage and ran very fast.

Soon she ran to the top of a stone peak and watched the three people running wildly from afar.

"Oh, there's nothing I can do." Xiaoxiao sighed.

If they were targeted by the Dust Storm Grasshopper, there would basically be no way to survive. Shi Qianshou had no intention of letting anyone who knew about this walk out of the desert alive. The three of them were released purely to show Lin Feili.

"Lin Ran and the others will avenge you." Xiaoxiao murmured to herself.

Now she had no other options. The Dust Storm Grasshopper could kill people in a flash. Now she could only hope that the three of them had some hidden magic tools to escape this disaster.

……

"Hehehe, captain's sister, I didn't expect you to be so smart. You can actually avoid our inspection here!" Suddenly, a very strange voice came from behind the rock.

When Xiaoxiao turned her head, she saw a black shadow appear, followed by a wretched man.

Xiaoxiao is the leader's sister. She is a beginner at the advanced level. Her strength is pretty good, but not very strong. It will be easy to deal with her.

Xiaoxiao smiled at this time and said, "Why don't you look back?"

The man turned around and found a black-haired young man looking at him.

Lin Ran!!!
