Full-Time Magister: The Calamity of Fire, the Emperor's Flame Burns the Heavens

Chapter 32 Luo Mian goes offline, White Demon Eagle Tribe attacks!
Judge Li Tian raised his hand and asked, "What is the connection between the plague and the blood serum?"

"What's the connection? This batch of blood serum is extracted from the blood of the Lingclaw Plague Rat. I won't go into the dangers of Lingclaw Plague Rat blood here. I believe the Hunter Alliance is very familiar with Lingclaw Plague Rat, right?" Jiang Shaoli scanned the area expressionlessly.

The elders of the Hunter Alliance mentioned by Jiang Shaoli quickly nodded in agreement, indicating that Jiang Shaoli was right.

"So you mean this plague didn't happen naturally, but was caused by someone making substandard blood serum?" Li Tian quickly grasped the key point.

"If that batch of blood serum from White Town is transported out, the plague will spread rapidly, and even if we wanted to stop it, it would be too late," said Feng Yang, president of the Hangzhou Magic Association, frowning. (This is a personal interpretation not mentioned in the original work.)
"Actually, a portion of that blood serum has already been transported out, to the ancient capital and the Qinling Mountains!" Hua Yu, standing behind Jiang Shaoli, said to the crowd.

Wang Yi's expression changed drastically. He hadn't expected his subordinates to be so unreliable. Not only did they sell the goods to hunters and free mages in private, but they also transported them to the ancient capital and the Qinling Mountains.

Luo Mian's expression gradually darkened. He now knew what it felt like to have a bunch of incompetent teammates. Did they even think they could get their hands on the ancient capital and the Qinling Mountains?

If anything goes wrong, he will face a nationwide execution order.

Jiang Shaoli slammed his hand on the table, his murderous gaze sweeping over everyone present.

"And the culprit behind all this is among you all, Vice Judge Wang Yi, am I right?" Jiang Shaoli asked, looking at Wang Yi.

Wang Yi now knew that he had been exposed, and those who were associated with him were also unsettled.

Among them were members of the Magic Association and the Inquisition, and even elders of the Hunter's Alliance.

Among them, the most powerful was none other than the councilor Luo Mian.

At this point, Wang Yi could only place his hopes on Luo Mian, but Luo Mian's next words would make him completely give up hope.

"If I remember correctly, that batch of blood serum in White Town was arranged by Vice Judge Wang Yi and the people from the Magic Association, right?" Luo Mian took the opportunity to step on a foot, trying to extricate himself.

Feng Yang, the president of the Hangzhou Magic Association, never expected that his own association would be involved. It seems that petty theft was not enough to satisfy those people's ambitions.

"Now that we've found the people behind this, let's arrest them all!" Judge Li Tian said to Luo Mian with a strange smile.

Li Tian's words clearly provoked Wang Yi.

"Hahaha, you guys don't actually think Luo Mian is anything good, do you? These blood potions were all made by him, and he's the one who teamed up with us to pull this deal in." Knowing he was doomed, Wang Yi started frantically trying to drag others down with him.

All eyes in the room turned to Luo Mian.

"Damn it!" Luo Mian cursed inwardly, knowing he couldn't withstand scrutiny.

"Shadow Escape - Flying Shadow!"

Luo Mian instantly unleashed shadow magic in an attempt to escape, confident that with his superior shadow magic power and control, he could definitely escape.

"Once I escape from here, I'll make them pay! I will never let these people get away with this!" Luo Mian said viciously.

However, he forgot about Zhang Long, who had invited them to the West Fortress.

An invisible spatial force trapped the shadow that Luo Mian had transformed into. "Radiant Purification!"

Zhang Long flicked his wrist and hurled a blinding beam of light at the area where Luo Mian was located. Light, being the nemesis of shadow, was incredibly effective.

Luo Mian's figure immediately appeared in front of everyone, and before Luo Mian could react, he was grabbed by Zhang Long.

Zhang Long completely sealed Luo Mian's magic, and Luo Mian, who had no power to resist, was thrown into a corner by Zhang Long.

At this moment, Luo Mian was like a stray dog, curled up in a corner, cursing everyone present frantically.

With the help of the military, all those involved were quickly apprehended and brought to trial.

"How can we solve this plague? Even Mr. Lu, the most skilled doctor in Hangzhou, has no solution to this plague!" Feng Yang said with a headache.

Unexpectedly, nearly a third of the high-ranking officials in Hangzhou were involved, with the Magic Association making up the majority of them. Without these people, the Magic Association can barely operate now.

"The plague caused by the Lingzhao Plague Rat only requires one medicinal herb, which is Red Eagle Grass. How much Red Eagle Grass has the Yunfeng Military Command collected?" Hua Yu asked.

"Not much. Red Eagle Grass is mainly concentrated in the Western Ridge, which is still the domain of the White Demon Eagle Tribe, so it's not easy to collect," Yun Feng honestly explained.

"Then let's give this batch of Red Eagle Grass to Mr. Lu first. We can treat as many people as we can. The first batch of infected people really can't wait any longer!" Feng Yang said hurriedly.

And at that time
"Oh no! Commander Yunfeng, the White Demon Eagles have attacked the West Fortress, and the Sky Eagles have collectively betrayed us!" Ming Kuo, a member of the Military Intelligence Bureau, rushed in and said anxiously.

"What? Execute those rebellious Skyhawks immediately!" Yun Feng hurriedly issued the order.

Those eagles generally possess the strength of general-level demons; if they rebel, it will be a blow to the western fortress.

Yun Feng slumped into a chair, unable to understand why so many things had happened in one day.

The high-ranking officials who had not yet left sensed something was amiss. Why would the well-trained Sky Eagle suddenly rebel? And why would the White Demon Eagle, which had been peaceful for decades, suddenly attack at this moment?
"I have some bad news for you. The Lingzhao Plague Rat is on the White Demon Eagle's menu, so the plague in Hangzhou will attract the White Demon Eagle tribe!" Hua Yu suddenly remembered something and told them what was about to happen.

"You mean, people infected with the plague are food in the eyes of the White Demon Eagles? And the Sky Eagle's betrayal is also related to the White Demon Eagles?" Li Tian said with a frown.

If that's the case, then welcoming the Western Fortress and Hangzhou will be a disaster.

Further west of the White Mountains lies the continuous West Ridge. For a long time, the West Ridge has been an area where flying is strictly prohibited. The reason for this is that a large flock of White Demon Eagles inhabits the West Ridge.

The White Demon Eagles are fierce and have an extremely strong sense of territorial defense. If a commander or monarch flies through their airspace, they will immediately attack them in droves, not stopping until they are dead. Even a small demon sparrow that gets lost will be met with hostility.

But over the years, they have never had any intention of advancing into the West Fortress and Hangzhou, yet now they have suddenly attacked the West Fortress.

This caught the military mages of the western fortress completely off guard.
