Chapter 174 It’s dawn

Eventually, the group followed the main force back to the north city wall and reported the matter to Peng Yu, the vice president of the Magic Association.

As for whether Peng Yu would report this matter to Han Ji, Xu Mu had no idea.

After all, the two parties are not familiar with each other, and whether Peng Yu will choose to believe him is itself an unknown.

……

Under the misty rain curtain, the gray city tower stands tall in the middle of the long city wall. I don’t know how many years of wind and rain it has experienced to have such a vicissitudes of color.

At this time, the large army had gathered on the city wall. Everyone's expression was extremely solemn, and their eyes were cast towards the battlefield more than 20 kilometers away.

Although the city wall was more than 20 kilometers away from the battlefield of the super-class wizards, they could still see the magic star palaces towering into the clouds.

Golden-red holy light, pale lightning, crystal-like ice, and all kinds of super-level magic were released in this night. This was a spectacular scene that no one on the city wall had ever witnessed.

"These twelve lightning halberds..." "Zhu Meng has cultivated the punishment of lightning halberds to the second level?" Xu Mu showed a surprised expression on his face.

On that distant battlefield, twelve lightning halberds appeared like visitors from outer space, descending rapidly from the sky with the force of thunder. They were like twelve lightning swords, firmly inserted into the ground around the Ghost Tyrant.

These lightning spears emitted a dazzling pale light, and each one seemed to contain endless power of thunder and lightning, as if speaking of the majesty and power of their owners.

"Councilman Zhu Meng's strength should not be underestimated. It is rare to find a councilman with such profound cultivation as him."

"Most of the congressmen I met with the boss in the past were addicted to the bright lights and wine, and had long forgotten the true meaning of magic. They were nothing more than a group of good-for-nothings with a false reputation." The demon man sighed involuntarily.

"It's almost dawn. When it gets light, the crisis in the ancient capital will be over." The demon man said this as he looked up at the sky, which was still shrouded in fog but no longer as dark as before.

The rain was still falling and getting heavier, but this did not make anyone feel depressed because of the heavy rain. Instead, they felt a little excited because the daybreak was about to come.

Once daybreak comes, all the undead will disappear and the northern city area will be saved.

……

Just as dawn was about to break, suddenly a milky white light rose into the sky from the distant battlefield.

“Light? Is this a distress signal? But why is it so dense?” Mo Fan looked at Yao Nan and Xu Mu beside him with a puzzled look. At the same time, he noticed that the people on the city wall cheered after seeing the dense light.

“You really should read more books. Such dense light signals mean that the boss and his men have succeeded. The Ghost Tyrant has been eliminated.” The demon man shook his head and sighed. The smile on his face was completely broken by Mo Fan’s ignorance.

What on earth did this kid learn in school? He doesn't even know the most basic light signals.

"Oh, so that's how it is. My high school teacher never taught me this, and I didn't go to class often in college. After all, I had too many departments to study and I really didn't have time to go to class." Mo Fan said seriously.

The demon man ignored Mo Fan and turned his gaze to the distance. As the light signals became denser, the remaining undead immediately became like a pile of scattered sand after the Ghost Tyrant died, losing their organization and strength.

All the super-class mages joined the battle, and those commander-level undead no longer posed much of a threat, so the city wall was able to be defended. "Great, great, really great!" A commander in charge of guarding the city wall shouted excitedly when he saw the remaining high-level mage army begin to return one after another.

As long as they can hold out for the last ten minutes or so and wait for the arrival of the second wave of national support during the day, the ancient capital can be said to have been completely defended.

Those high-level mages appeared one after another around the city wall, and some of the mages with faster marching speed had already returned to the city wall.

Under the cover of rain, Zhu Meng, with a pair of flaming wings burning on his back, also supported a super-class magician and returned to the city wall.

"Where's my boss? I hope nothing happened to him?" When the demon man saw Zhu Meng landing, he immediately stepped forward to ask.

"He is injured. This guy fights harder than me." Zhu Meng panted, with a tired look on his face.

"The others will return one after another. The casualties this time are not serious. We have won a great victory!" Zhu Meng turned around and looked at the mages outside the city wall.

From his perspective, he could just see the morning light penetrating the dense dark clouds in the east. He thought that it would be dawn in a few minutes, and then this group of super-class mages could rest and heal their wounds.

After all, it was only the first night that had passed, and who knew if any monarch-level undead would appear on the second night.

Although support is on the way, who knows when it will arrive. Super-class mages are not available everywhere. Most of them have to guard local cities. Only senators like him and super-class mages like the Hunting King Du Xiao can move freely around the country.

"I hope there will be more super-class mages today." Zhu Meng sighed, turned around and looked around, and soon found Xu Mu in the crowd.

Xu Mu was squatting in the corner, playing with the glowing bracelet on his hand. If Zhu Meng remembered correctly, it should be a totem vessel?
Zhu Meng had to thank Xu Mu for being able to successfully kill the Ghost Tyrant this time. If it weren't for Xu Mu, he wouldn't have been able to learn the second-level Thunder Ring Punishment, and this second-level Thunder Ring Punishment played a big role in tonight's decapitation operation.

If he had not learned the second-level Thunder Ring Punishment, many super-class mages would probably be seriously injured tonight.

Zhu Meng walked up to Xu Mu, patted him on the shoulder, and was about to say something when he saw Xu Mu's expression become solemn, and the bracelet in his hand glowed brighter and brighter.

"Look at your expression. Does it mean that the totem beast is in danger?" Zhu Meng asked.

"The totem beast is safe, but we may be in big trouble." Xu Mu shook his head.

"What does this mean?" Zhu Meng was stunned for a moment. It was almost dawn now. Without the threat of the undead, how could they suddenly get into big trouble?

"A super-class wizard appeared in Dongcheng District. He is our enemy." Xu Mu did not hide the news from Zhu Meng.

After saying that, he did not forget to add: "You can't beat him."

"..."

After hearing this, Zhu Meng looked at Xu Mu speechlessly and said, "If I can't beat him, then I can't beat him. There are at least five super-class mages in the entire ancient capital who are stronger than me. Even if the other party is a super-class mage, do you dare to break into the ancient capital alone?"
