Chapter 51 Strengthening Xingzi
The association hall was empty and the various facilities were placed in a mess. It was obvious that there had been a chaos here before.

"Is this the only manpower we have?"

Xu Mu looked around, his eyes fell on the mages in front of him, and a feeling of worry surged in his heart.

In total, he only has 20 mages, including one high-level mage, two mid-level mages, and the rest are beginner mages. With such a small number of people, it is difficult for them to protect themselves, let alone resist the demons and rescue the people.

Is the Magic Association so short-staffed?
"The members of the Magic Association should have been taken away by Yang Zuohe." Deng Kai sighed, "These are all mages from the Hunter Alliance."

"Is that so?" Xu Mu scratched his head, then looked at Deng Kai and asked with a hint of expectation: "Elder Deng Kai, do you know where the magic association stores its spirit?"

"You want to use spirit to strengthen the stars?" Deng Kai asked after a moment's pause.

After all, he is a mid-level wizard and knows the functions of soul essences, such as making soul-repairing magic tools, training summoned beasts, and strengthening stars.

"Yes." Xu Mu nodded.

"Now that we are in danger, I want to improve my strength as much as possible."

"..." Deng Kai was silent for a moment, then stood up: "It's useless to keep the spirit, I'll get it for you."

"Then I'll take care of it." Xu Mu smiled.

"Don't be happy too soon. You should know the special measures of the Magic Association in the face of the Blood Alert. I don't think the association still has any spirit left." Deng Kai poured cold water on Xu Mu.

There are also many mid-level wizards in the Magic Association. In order to resist the invasion of demons, the wizards of the association are very likely to use spirits to strengthen the stars.

The two of them knew this very well.

After Deng Kai left, he came back with a bunch of magic tools and weapons after a while.

"This is the spirit you want." Deng Kai handed over a ghost vessel and a dozen special containers containing spirits.

"So many?" Xu Mu counted them carefully and found that there were more than a dozen slave-level spirits and eight or nine general-level spirits.

How could such a small city of Bo actually have so many warrior-level spirits? These spirits were not only enough to upgrade the Thunder Seal to the fifth level, but also had enough energy to push the Telepathy to the fourth level.

Don’t the mages in the Magic Association use stars to strengthen their spirits?

"These spirits were purchased with the funds accumulated by Bo City over the years. We originally planned to hire someone to make soul-repairing magic tools after the college entrance examination, and planned to use Mo Fan's talent to promote Bo City. Unexpectedly, we suddenly encountered the Blood Alert incident."

"As for why they are not used, it is probably because the association's mages found it troublesome, so they did not use these spirit essences." Deng Kai noticed Xu Mu's confusion and explained.

There is a possibility of failure in strengthening the stars, which is mainly related to the quality of the spirit.

In addition, it takes some time to strengthen the stars. The mages of the Magic Association may find it troublesome and take their magic weapons and tools and directly engage in the battle against the monsters, rather than spending time strengthening the stars.

"Brother Zhu, this is for you." Deng Kai said as he took out a healing magic weapon that emitted a soft light.

He then distributed other magic weapons and tools to the surrounding wizards.

There are a large number of magic weapons and tools in the association, but due to lack of manpower, not many of them can actually be used, resulting in many valuable resources not being used effectively.

Fortunately they came, so it wasn't a waste.

"Never mind, let's strengthen it quickly." Xu Mu took out the essence, took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and immersed himself in his own spiritual world.

The lightning nebula is a dazzling purple-red color, swirling like a huge vortex in the vast spiritual universe.

The seven slave-level spirits transformed into seven rays of firefly-like light and merged into the corresponding stars one by one in a specific order.

After absorbing the power of the essence, the seven stars became noticeably brighter and more active, and were significantly enhanced. The strengthened seven stars were also the original seven stars.

Level 4 Thunder Seal, done!
Next is the general-level spirit!
……

Ten minutes passed. "Is the strengthening over?" Deng Kai noticed that Xu Mu had left his immersion in the spiritual world, and immediately asked.

"Yeah." Xu Mu replied briefly, and then said with an excited expression: "Level 5 Thunder Seal! Next time I meet a three-eyed demon wolf, I don't even need to release intermediate magic to kill it."

"Oh, I really envy you talented mages." Hearing this, Deng Kai looked at Xu Mu with envy.

Look how big the gap is between people. A level five thunder seal from a genius wizard can kill the three-eyed demon wolf, while his intermediate-level magic can't do anything to the three-eyed demon wolf.

Principal Zhu on the side looked at Xu Mu with a strange look. As a high-level mage, the amount of information he was exposed to far exceeded what the mid-level mage Deng Kai knew.

At least in his opinion, relying solely on the power enhancement of the spirit seed and casting a fifth-level magic is not enough to ensure the defeat of the three-eyed demon wolf.

"Is it because the spiritual seed is too strong, or what?" Principal Zhu wondered in his heart.

"I am such a failure as a principal..."

This was the first time he felt a sense of failure as a principal. He knew nothing about the most promising students in the school, Xu Mu and Mo Fan.

"What actions should we take now?" Xu Mu did not notice Principal Zhu's gaze, he turned to Deng Kaifa and asked.

Although Principal Zhu is a high-level wizard, now is not the time to see who has the bigger fist. When it comes to commanding operations, Deng Kai is obviously more professional.

"Let's go to the city center and meet up with the people from the Magic Association," Deng Kai suggested.

Magicians are not good at fighting alone. When facing demons, they often need the cooperation of multiple people to defeat them without any damage.

Now demons are attacking the city, and the number of demons pouring into the city is greater than their magicians. They must immediately find the wizards of the association and join forces with them in order to have a chance of survival in the city.

"There are still some mages in the Alliance. They should have already reunited with the Association." Deng Kai continued.

The Hunter Alliance does not only obey his orders, there are many mid-level mages of the same level as him, and they may have already brought people to unite with the members of the Magic Association.

"You probably don't have any defensive magic tools on you, so take this shield magic tool." Deng Kai handed over a magic tool.

"This is a mid-level shield magic tool, enough to withstand an attack from a three-eyed demon wolf. A shield magic tool like this would cost at least millions on the market." Deng Kai sighed softly and said, "If it weren't for the current critical situation, I wouldn't have any use for it."

A disaster forced them to use expensive magic tools that they would never dare to dream of.

But what's the cost?

If they use it, they might all die here.

A survival rate of less than 30% is no joke.

After a complete rest, everyone headed towards the city center.

They encountered several one-eyed demon wolves on the way. Before Xu Mu could take any action, these demon wolves were already dealt with by other mages.

The mages in the team are all the best in the alliance. Each of them has the ability to release basic third-level magic. Their combat effectiveness should not be underestimated.

A few one-eyed demon wolves were a piece of cake for them.

Xu Mu wanted to cast magic, but Deng Kai and Principal Zhu asked him to save some magic energy to deal with the more troublesome three-eyed demon wolf.

Among these twenty people, although Principal Zhu's combat effectiveness ranks first, his combat effectiveness fluctuates greatly due to his old age. Xu Mu follows closely behind and ranks second.

If we encounter the three-eyed demon wolf, I'm afraid Xu Mu will have to take action.

Deng Kai and other mages didn't want Xu Mu to take action against these one-eyed demon wolves at all. It was a complete waste of magic energy.
