Versatile Mage: Undying Fire

Chapter 335

The mountain people began to fall down in groups, with corpses lying in all directions, and then the beautiful area under the Tianguan Purple Tilia sacred tree was completely turned into a river of blood, and the roots and slopes of the tree were also dyed bright red...

"I don't know if what we are doing is a blasphemy to the sacred tree." Guan Xixi suddenly sighed.

"How could this be? This is really gratifying. Haven't you noticed that the inhabitants of the tree world also dislike these mountain people? Otherwise, why would they come to help us when we launched a siege on them? If it weren't for those colorful monster birds, we wouldn't have it so easy!" said Liu Xiaojia.

"That's true. We may hate the demon birds even more. After all, haven't you seen that there are basically no survivors of the demon birds?" Nie Lengshan glanced into the distance.

Nie Lengshan did not order a desperate pursuit. On the one hand, the sea of ​​grass was not conducive to pursuit and fighting, and on the other hand, the seven-colored monster birds had already begun to be eliminated. What they had to do next was to reorganize the personnel, clean up the corpses, and return with a great victory.

Not many mages died in this battle. Lin Ran and his men did not let the battle last too long. They killed the big leader and the second leader early, which minimized the losses.

“I think we should leave here as soon as possible. After all, this is the outer Kunyu Mountain and the territory of demons. The smell of blood over such a large area is likely to bring about greater disasters.” Mo Fan said.

"Well, I think so too, Mr. Tong..." Nie Lengshan nodded.

"You are kidding. We have finally carried out a major cleanup in the outer Kunyu Mountain. How can we just leave like this? What's more, this sacred Tianguan Purple Tilia tree is simply a miracle. Yantai can become the richest city on the coast because of its existence!" said Tong Shang, a government official.

“There are still many powerful demons on the Tianguan Zilin Tree. You’d better not disturb them.” Mo Fan said.

The four-life lizard tiger he encountered before was definitely not the strongest existence. Perhaps the bad premonition came from the inhabitants of the higher tree world. And most importantly, what exactly killed the overlord of the outer Kunyu Mountain?
Are these mountain people?

It is obvious that the door should not be opened. There are many mountain people, and there are many leaders among them, but the strongest bronze-tooth mountain leader is no match for Nie Lengshan. You know, how could the monarch-level overlord of the outer Kunyu Mountain die at the hands of mountain people!

Mo Fan also expressed his thoughts, but at this time, Tong Shang from the government laughed and said, "Monarchs will also die one day. It is obvious that its life span has come to an end and it died of natural causes... This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and I don't want to miss it!"

Yantai's Inner Kunyu Mountain has already brought enormous benefits to the city. If the Outer Kunyu Mountain is incorporated into the Anjie, then it will suddenly gain endless gold mountains and gold mines, which will enable Yantai to develop into a super coastal city in just a few years, and there will be no need to worry about invasions from the enemy.

Tong Shangwan didn't want to waste this hard-earned victory. He wanted to take the world-miracle-level Tianguan Purple Tilia Tree for himself!
As for the creatures in the tree world?

What is there to be afraid of? It is not as if Yantai is without super-class masters. As long as he tells them about the existence of the Heavenly Crown Purple Tilia Sacred Tree, he doesn't believe they will not be tempted. At that time, as long as he promises them enough benefits, they will join forces to destroy all the demon tree nests on the Heavenly Crown Purple Tilia Sacred Tree, and then everything will belong to them.

The overlord of Outer Kunyu Mountain is now dead, so this cash cow is now ownerless. It is a waste of resources to give it to these monsters as a habitat! !

The purple linden tree can release special energy, enhance the physique of demons, and then let the demons live on it, but it can also bring a strong training enhancement to humans. This will cultivate many outstanding magicians for the entire Yantai.

No matter what, Tong Shang would never leave here like this. Even if it meant paying the same price of bloodshed, he would take over the Outer Kunyu Mountain.

“Don’t tell me that you were the one who sent people to spread the news about the purple linden tree?” Mo Fan suddenly looked at Tong Shang, who was extremely determined, and questioned him.

"Yes, it was me who did it. Of course, the appearance of the mountain man was not what I expected. What's more, I was just spreading the news truthfully. Everyone knows that the purple linden tree is a cash cow. Even if there is danger, the hunters have to bear it themselves." Tong Shang did not hide this matter and said it very frankly.

"Fuck you!" Mo Fan raised his foot and kicked Tong Zhuang hard in the stomach.

Then the guy stood up angrily and was kicked by Lin Ran into the blood.

Seeing that both of them had started fighting, Zhao Manyan also rushed over and kicked them.

Tong Shangke was an official. In front of Nie Lengshan and several other military commanders, he believed that he was absolutely safe. But he didn't know that Mo Fan, Zhao Manyan, and Lin Ran would be so reckless and kick him without any scruples! !

"You! Are you looking for death?!" Wang Dakuo suddenly became furious and pointed at Lin Ran and the other two for a long time before uttering these words.

Several other military commanders immediately surrounded Lin Ran and the other two, glaring at each other.

The remaining few magicians from the government rushed to Tong Shang and helped him up in panic.

Tong Shang's face was ashen at this time. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his hand. Although his eyes were fierce, he pushed away the people around him, and then walked back to where he was just now. He said coldly: "I admit it this time. Yu is considered to be a dereliction of duty for my misjudgment of the mountain man by the Yantai security officer. I also accepted it for the people who died before. However, if you want to stop it, don't blame me for being rude to you. Even if you are all glorious members of the World Academy Competition and great benefactors of the ancient capital, I will never show mercy!"

Tong Shang waved his hand at this time, and signaled the soldiers not to use force.

"Hehe, you are worthy of being an official. So many people died because of your mistake, and you think it's too much just to say I'm willing to apologize!" Shaonu was also extremely dissatisfied with Tong Shang's behavior.

"Humph, who do you think you are? You are telling Chief Tong what to do!" Wang Hua said sarcastically, then turned to Wang Dakuo and said, "Uncle, you support Chief Tong, right?"

“I need to discuss this with other elders of the association,” said Wang Dakuo.

Wang Dakuo now represents the largest magic association in Yantai. He is indeed very excited now. After all, as the tide rises, all boats rise. If the city develops well, there will be more talented magicians, and the status of their magic association will naturally be different. After all, the Penglai Magic Association is still only a local association, and its influence is too weak.

Although Nie Lengshan represents the military, he is a staff officer in charge of combat command and will not be responsible for the decision-making of urban security and construction. If Tong Shang initiates this plan, I believe the military boss in Yantai will also agree.

Not to mention that the purple linden tree resources in the outer Kunyu Mountain are already coveted, the Tianguan purple linden sacred tree is even more of a gift from God. Now that the overlord is dead, I believe they can take it for themselves.

"This battle is just the beginning. For the sake of Yantai, for the sake of enabling people to live and work in peace and prosperity, we cannot be afraid of bloodshed and sacrifice. I believe that many people will be proud to die in battle and be buried under this sacred Tianguan Zilin tree." Tong Shang continued.

It was obvious that the several military commanders followed Tong Shang's lead, and they were all willing to go through fire and water for Tong Shang's plan.

Nie Lengshan has not spoken yet. If the final decision is to use the outer Kunyu Mountain as a safe territory and take down the Tianguan Purple Tilia sacred tree, then he can only continue to fight.

Mo Fan didn't have any good solution when facing an official like Tong Shang. Even if he asked Councillor Zhu Meng and Speaker Shao Zheng to help, he couldn't use the reason that he felt it was not safe to reject the infinite possibilities of a city in the future. Even if he felt sorry for the hunters who died tragically, the hunters came here voluntarily after all, and the responsibility for their death was mainly on themselves. It can even be said that Tong Shang did nothing wrong. When the huge threat of the mountain people existed, he immediately dispatched a strong enough force to come and eliminate them, saving some hunters who might have been wiped out.

These hunters are more grateful to Tong Shang!

As for the matter of passing on the mountain people's message, in fact, before they asked Teacher Gao to go and report the news, other hunters had already informed the government. Apart from their contribution of killing the chief of Bronze Teeth, their other contributions were just that and had no impact.

Power is still in the hands of those who truly have power. It seems that all Mo Fan and his men can do is to kick him if they don't like him, but the other party dare not do anything to them!
“Mo Fan, forget it. This is Yantai’s own business.” Zhao Manyan advised.

"Nie Lengshan, please do me a favor. If you find this pattern while exploring the tree world, please take a picture of it for me." Mo Fan still remembered the totem. He handed the deduced totem mark to Nie Lengshan.

"Okay." Nie Lengshan agreed very readily.

“By the way, be careful when exploring. You must be careful. This Heavenly Crowned Lilac Tree is not that simple.” Mo Fan said seriously.

"Do you have enough evidence to prove that it is unsafe here? If so, this plan will not be passed by the congressmen." Nie Lengshan felt that Mo Fan and the others were right in their concerns.

“No.” Mo Fan replied.

If he explored higher into the tree world, there would be some amazing results, but his strength and condition no longer allowed him to go any higher. The Four-Life Lizard Tiger was already a limit, and if he went any higher, Lin Ran might not be able to protect all of them.

Nie Lengshan did not continue speaking.

Nie Lengshan believed that the intuition of people like Mo Fan was very important, but intuition could not convince the officials, officers, association leaders, and hunters who had seen the future prosperity of Yantai...

……

"Mr. Tong, the bodies of some of our brothers are difficult to recover." A burly officer came up and said to Tong Shang.

"We must take them back no matter how difficult it is. Don't just throw them away because they are broken!" Tong Shang is not a brainless official. He knows very well how to gain people's respect. They are all dead in the war. If they cannot be buried, it will arouse public anger!

"No, that's not the question..." Just as the officer was about to make a statement, an extremely noisy sound suddenly came from the tree world.

Some of the lowest-level demon birds inexplicably flew out of their territory, and then began to make extremely sharp calls. They circled in groups under the huge shade of the tree, circling above the heads of those who were still under the Tianguan Purple Tilia sacred tree.

"What do these demon birds want to do? Are they trying to drive us away?" Tong Shang raised his head and looked at these low-level demon birds, then couldn't help but sneered.

The demon birds are the lowest-level inhabitants of the tree world. Their strength is only slightly weaker than that of ordinary slaves, but there are so many of them that it would be a bit annoying to attack them in groups. However, it is not too difficult for the army to eliminate them.

The truly powerful ones are the seven-colored demon birds. The strength of these demon birds is comparable to that of mountain people. They live in the tree world above the four-life lizard tiger, at an altitude of more than 4,000 meters above sea level. There are many colorful demon birds above this altitude. Compared with these low-level demon birds, they are equivalent to nobility!

"Let's ignore them for now, as long as they don't attack us... Oh, these colorful monster birds seem to have flown back. I didn't expect them to hate the mountain people so much. I didn't expect them to chase us for so long." Tong Shang said.

"Yes, it seems that they killed all the escaped mountain people. This saves us a lot of trouble and time. It's a pity that we will be at war with them soon." said Sun Juntong.

"They are relatively friendly to us humans. It's good that they fly back and take care of these mixed-haired monster birds. It's so annoying to hear their screams!" Tong Shang said impatiently.

Tong Shang now plans to let Nie Lengshan take people to explore the entire Tianguan Zilin Divine Tree. It would be best to find out what kind of creatures live on the cloud-top crown of the Tianguan Zilin Divine Tree, so that they can determine how many mage legions to dispatch.

……

At the same time, under the tree root slope, blood dripped onto the soil like a spring, and then dripped down. At this moment, a strong big hand reached out from the side, and then covered the falling blood with the back of its hand, thus preventing the female hunter from being covered in blood.

The female hunter immediately turned around with a smile. She looked at the gentle and delicate man and said, "We can get a lot of money this time. Even if we do nothing for a year or two, we can live a good life. I miss Xiao Dongxia a little now. We should spend more time with her."

"Well, I'll listen to you. We'll take a year off first. It's also a good opportunity for us to practice in seclusion and see if there's any hope of breaking through to become high-level mages. Even if only one of us makes the breakthrough, we won't have to live in the open air like this in the future. I've already contacted the Lu family. From now on, we should follow a big family. After all, life will be more stable there. Xiao Dongxia can be considered to be from a famous family in the future, so she won't have to live on the edge of a knife like us every day..." Dong Jiali said with a smile. He was very much looking forward to the future.
