Chapter 203

The speed of commander-level creatures is astonishing, and the Blue Valley Fierce Beast, as a representative of smaller creatures, often possesses extraordinary talents in speed or magic!
I saw the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast suddenly rushing out from the chaos of the ruins like a blue lightning.

The long pointed legs on its sides, like precision machinery, stomped on the stone floor at an astonishing frequency, making a crackling sound. It quickly approached the crowd, looking so menacing and chilling.

"Mind control!"

Ai Jiangtu raised his eyes suddenly, fearlessly facing the sharp foot that could penetrate the street, as if his gaze itself was a powerful force that could resist the attack of the Blue Valley beast. Sure enough, the sharp blade leg stopped abruptly in mid-air, hovering motionless, unable to fall.

Seeing their captain step forward, the teammates were inspired. Thinking that the allocation of resources might ultimately be decided by Ai Jiangtu, they turned around and started a fierce battle with the Blue Valley beast.

Dozens of star maps bloomed in the sky. Magical energies of various attributes intertwined together. Flames, frost, thunder, hurricanes, magic vines... a feast of elements took place on the battlefield.

In the fight against demons, teamwork is crucial.

Magic of different types gathered together and attacked a target at the same time can produce a significant synergistic effect, making those demons with strong bodies at a loss under the continuous offensive.

However, the fierce beasts in Blue Valley are not easy to deal with.

Even if magic poured down like rain, even if it could be forced back, it would be difficult to cause substantial damage to it.

Only a few messy traces were left on its tough scales and armor, proving that a magical attack had just hit it.

"We need a poison mage to corrode its armor first, otherwise we will exhaust our magic power but won't be able to hurt it at all!" Li Kaifeng saw this and realized that simple power bombing would have little effect, so he shouted loudly.

"Zu Jiming is a poison expert, but that guy just escaped." Jiang Shaoxu responded.

"Oh, they're back again."

Before Jiang Shaoxu finished speaking, Zu Jiming and the few people who had just escaped appeared on the battlefield again.

"Silent Thunder Death Light!"

The purple-red beam of light in Xu Mu's hand burst out instantly, cutting through the air like a bolt of lightning, accurately hitting the head of the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast.

With a deafening explosion, the head of the Blue Valley Fierce Beast was blown to pieces, and blue blood poured down like a rainstorm, dyeing everything around it bloody.

“Oh my God, is it over so soon?” Zhao Manyan widened his eyes and shouted in disbelief.

He couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, and others were also extremely shocked at the result. This was a commander-level demon, how could he be killed so easily?
This Silent Thunder Death Light you're using is a super-level magic, right?
"The head is its most vulnerable part, and there is no armor to protect it." Xu Mu explained briefly.

"Even if its head is not protected by armor, you can't kill it so easily." Jiang Shaoxu asked in astonishment.

Even with her family background, she had never seen a high-level wizard who could kill a commander-level demon so easily with a single blow.

"This is talent, do you understand? This is the worldview of a genius." Xu Mu replied with some arrogance.

"Stop chatting, the two of you. Another siren is coming over here." Ai Jiangtu warned with a serious expression.

"It seems to be here to avenge its companion. I will send it to see the King of Hell now." Xu Mu said lightly.

Another Blue Valley Fierce Beast rushed towards Xu Mu and others angrily. Zhao Manyan and others had already made defensive preparations to resist its fierce attack.

The Blue Valley Fierce Beast stopped steadily less than fifty meters away from them, letting out a deafening roar. Its body was covered with iron-hard scales and was trembling slightly.

Immediately afterwards, wave after wave of deep sea blue cold thorns shot towards them like a rainstorm.

"I'm afraid we can't withstand the magic attack of the commander-level demon." Jiang Yu shouted anxiously.

"Use space teleportation magic to move them away." Ai Jiangtu responded calmly.

As soon as he finished speaking, a complex constellation pattern made up of silver light appeared under Ai Jiangtu's feet.

He performed high-level magic more skillfully than Mo Fan. Just as the silver-glittering constellation pattern took shape, a dazzling silver halo appeared on Ai Jiangtu's body.

The halo quickly spread out, tightly wrapping the few people inside, and then they disappeared from the spot together and were instantly teleported to another place.

Xu Mu followed suit and used the space teleportation skill. A circle of mysterious runes flashing silver light quickly formed under his feet.

His movements were clean and neat, and he completed them almost at the same time as Ai Jiangtu.

As the silver light shone, a powerful spatial energy surged out from Xu Mu's body, forming a huge silver halo.

The halo quickly expanded, completely covering the remaining people. Then, they felt a strong sense of dizziness, as if they were carried away by an invisible force.

When everyone regained their vision, they found themselves standing on the roof of a tall building, and the terrifying Blue Valley beast was standing not far away!

"Wozhi, do you know how to teleport? How did you send us here?"

"Stop arguing. This is my first time trying to teleport someone." Xu Mu responded somewhat awkwardly, then his gaze turned to the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast.

The Blue Valley Fierce Beast had turned around and looked at them, staring at Xu Mu with cold eyes, making people wonder whether the Blue Valley Fierce Beast that had just died was its partner or its brother or sister, because now Xu Mu and others could clearly feel that the anger of this Blue Valley Fierce Beast was spreading rapidly.

“Kah ah ah ah!!!!”

The Blue Valley Fierce Beast roared a few times, waved its arms covered with barbs, and swept down from the sky, as if it wanted to turn them all into a hornet's nest.

"Dodge quickly!"

Xu Mu shouted loudly, and he quickly summoned 323 stars shining with blue light. These stars were arranged into star tracks, quickly forming a complex star map. Then, a huge water curtain unfolded from one side, giving everyone a chance to breathe.

“Oh my god, your water magic has reached a high level? No, how come the speed of your third-level magic is faster than my first-level magic?” Zhao Manyan couldn’t help but complain after dodging the attack narrowly.

After dodging, the others showed expressions of disbelief. They had never seen anyone of their age with such an outrageous level of cultivation.

Among them, no one had reached a high level of magic, but Xu Mu had already mastered three types of high-level magic, and could cast them freely. "If you had a lot of money, you might be able to reach this level." Xu Mu took the time to respond during the battle, and then devoted himself to the battle against the Blue Valley beast.

It seems that now I can only rely on myself. I am afraid that Zhao Manyan and other mid-level mages will not be of much help.

“I am the richest, okay? I am richer than all of you!” Zhao Manyan retorted dissatisfiedly.

Xu Mu ignored Zhao Manyan's complaints. He had already beaten the Blue Valley Fierce Beast to the point of being on the verge of death, and was preparing to strike again to end the life of the mermaid.

He quickly ended the life of this commander-level sea monster and then reunited with Ai Jiangtu and others.

"We just entered Donghai City and encountered this kind of thing. This is indeed not a good place." Someone complained embarrassedly.

"We just arrived in Donghai City and encountered this kind of thing. This is really not a good place." Someone complained embarrassedly.

“Stop complaining. Let’s report in first. Someone in the team is injured and needs money for treatment.” Nan Jue said.

Near the high embankment in Donghai City, a towering cylindrical building is particularly conspicuous. Even from several blocks away, one can still feel its majesty.

After the Kuomintang team arrived here, they found the person in charge of reception according to the instructions.

The receptionist was an official from the Magic Association. He led everyone to a suite of more than 400 square meters, which had more than a dozen rooms for them to choose from.

The wounded went to rest first, while the others gathered in the hall in the center of the suite.

This man who looked to be in his thirties had cunning eyes. He always inadvertently glanced at several girls in the team, paying special attention to the girls with long legs. His eyes always drifted downwards, making people feel that he was like a lecherous mouse.

Although he looks ordinary, from the badge on his chest it can be seen that his status in the Magic Association is not low.

"This room is charged. If you don't have money, you can pay with demon gall. After all, most of the wizards who come to East Sea City are here to make a lot of money by risking their lives."

"But you are unlucky. You were attacked by monsters right after you arrived here... Oh, you are lucky. Was it Block 19 or Block 13? Two commander-level creatures appeared there. You are lucky not to be there. My name is Lai Hengbao, and I am responsible for receiving and reviewing Chinese hunters from Donghai City."

As Lai Hengbao spoke, he turned his gaze to Nanjue again. Because she had the longest legs, his eyes hardly left her.

"Wait, we..." Jiang Yu noticed that Lai Hengbao's attitude was abnormal and wanted to explain.

"What's your name?" Lai Hengbao asked, holding a piece of information.

Jiang Yu replied: "My name is Jiang Yu."

This time, Lai Hengbao looked directly at Nanjue without any disguising, and asked in a firm tone, "You are Nanjue, right?"

“Yes.” Nanjue answered simply.

"That's right." Lai Hengbao sighed, "Don't tell me that you are the top hunter team in the country, or what an excellent magician combination you are, what honors you have won, and what monsters you have killed."

"I am the one who receives most of the Chinese mages who come to East Sea City. If you want to become a district team for a block in East Sea Fortress City, do as I say next."

"Otherwise, the review by the Magic Association in Japan is much stricter. Don't let them think you are not strong enough and send you back." Lai Hengbao seemed very impatient.

"Block district team?" The people in the team looked at each other, not knowing how to respond for a moment.

What on earth are the instructors doing? Didn't they say they were coming to Donghai City for training? Why did they send someone who didn't even know their identities to receive them?

Seeing everyone's confused faces, Lai Hengbao seemed a little impatient.

"Oh my god, are you guys here for tourism? Don't joke with me, I'm in a hurry, I just need to say it once..."

"The East Sea City Fortress is divided into a total of thirty-two blocks. Each block has approximately thirty narrow roads, six wide roads, and one main street."

"Each of these thirty-two blocks has a governor, and these governors receive protection funds from the island government and the World Magic Association every month."

"These funds are completely at the district owner's disposal, whether they are used to increase personal income, train his own mage team, or hire hunters and mages. As long as the sirens can be eliminated in time when the tide rises, the remaining funds will belong to the district owner." Lai Hengbao explained.

"My job is to provide a team of mages for those district owners who need to hire staff, mainly for us Chinese. Didn't your agency in the country tell you this?" Lai Hengbao asked.

After listening to what Lai Hengbao said, everyone felt as if they had been sold here by their mentor to work as low-priced labor.

"Can the instructors be any less reliable?" Jiang Shaoxu couldn't help but complain.

"An agent...it makes us seem like we're really here to work." Jiang Yu also showed a depressed expression.

"Alas, this is probably deliberately arranged by the instructor. They hope that our experience will be closer to reality."

Everyone soon understood what was going on.

Although there was someone to receive them when they arrived, they did not come here to gain experience as members of the national government. Instead, it was as if they had signed an indenture with a certain team and came here to do hard labor for them!
"The salary has been paid to your team leader. Oh, by the way, the bodies of the sirens here all belong to the district owner. They will be sold to the island government. The district owner will take a portion of the profit, and the rest will be distributed according to the performance of the team or individuals. By the way, let me remind everyone not to hide the bodies of sirens privately. Once discovered, you will be severely punished." Lai Hengbao warned seriously.

“I feel like we were really sold here. How much money did the instructors charge? Why didn’t they give us a penny?” Zhao Manyan couldn’t help but complain.

After hearing what Lai Hengbao said, everyone's mood suddenly became heavy.

I originally thought I was here to gain experience, but now I have become a laborer.

"Did you receive the money for the two sea monsters you killed earlier?" Zhao Manyan suddenly thought of something and asked Xu Mu anxiously.

"Received it. The people from the Magic Association came quickly and gave me the money on the spot." Xu Mu replied.

Xu Mu originally planned to take away the bodies of the two Blue Valley ferocious beasts, but when he was about to take them away, the wizard from the Island Country Magic Association appeared.

They told him that the body of the sea monster belonged to the island government, but Xu Mu could exchange the merits gained from killing the sea monster for money as a reward. (End of this chapter)
