Versatile Mage: Undying Fire

Chapter 361
"We can't let it go any further, otherwise we won't know what kind of monster this Hades Frog and the Hades Trackers will pull out from the underworld. That thing might be something we really can't contend with." Bin Wei said to everyone with a serious face.

"Something we can't contend with..." the adjutant muttered to himself.

There was no optimism on the faces of the other military strategists. They had finally seen a glimmer of hope in this battle thanks to the defense of the Ancient Great Wall, but they had not expected that there was something even more terrifying behind the Hades Frog. This was probably the most difficult enemy they had encountered in all these years in Zhenbei Pass.

"We need support." At this time, military strategist Guangming said.

"I have sent it out before, but just when we were facing the underworld trackers, bad news came from the east." Bin Wei said.

This news came shortly before the battle. Binwei was a staff officer and a general, so she was the only one at this level to know the bad news.

"What bad news??? Are they more difficult than these ghost things we are facing now? These are creatures from the underworld. Not to mention where they come from, just the appearance of this monarch-level creature in front of us is enough to activate a high-level alert. These magic associations, big magic clans, and government mages are unwilling to take care of it? Do they have to let all of us soldiers die here before they will award us a hero banner?" An adjutant said with some emotion out of control.

The appearance of underworld creatures is unprecedented. Shouldn't the people in the Magic Association investigate this matter thoroughly? !
If this kind of thing is not a big deal and cannot be dealt with first, then what is it? ?

"I don't know what exactly happened, but what they sent me was not a notification message, but news of troop dispatch." Bin Wei said in a calm voice at this time.

"What????"

The other military strategists all exclaimed in surprise.

Deploy troops? ?
What kind of hellish joke is this? They are now facing attacks from unknown underworld creatures and are in desperate need of massive military support. Not only do their superiors not send any support, but they are actually pulling personnel from their side. Are they trying to destroy them?
"Are they going to abandon the dozens of cities, hundreds of towns, and thousands of villages behind us? Are they all crazy!!" An adjutant could no longer control his roar.

The demon orchid descended back onto the city wall, and the aura of magic once again filled the air around them.

The expressions on the adjutant's and military strategist's faces were now indescribable; they had really hit a desperate situation, and no one spoke for a long time.

Fortunately, the combat command of Military Control Commissioner Chang Yi was excellent. Under his powerful leadership, the military mages quickly eliminated the underworld trackers who were trapped under the city walls, and then led the summoning mage troops to regain their power, instantly restoring the previously defeated morale!

Although Chang Yi looks rough and unruly, he is actually meticulous in fighting. He did not forcibly pursue the underworld trackers outside the city wall. After all, he has figured out some of the rules of these underworld trackers. If the underworld trackers with spells on their bodies have thick skin and flesh, it will be difficult to kill them even with high-level magic.

The battle cannot be rushed and the steel defenses of the ancient city walls are still there, so even though they have achieved a little victory they cannot be too hasty and must wait and see to prevent any unexpected events.

"Chang Yi, well done!" Guangming, the military strategist at the side, praised.

"Humph, these things only look scary, they just use some evil magic. As long as we find their weaknesses, we will kill them all and send them back to the underworld. You must understand that our land is sacred and inviolable!" Chang Yi said with great momentum.

His deputies were also very excited at this time, and when they looked at the commander-in-chief Bin Wei, they were filled with admiration.

No wonder she was able to become the commander-in-chief. This steel wall directly taught those underworld creatures how to kill people. All the frustration and helplessness they had before were swept away! !
"Chang Yi." Commander-in-chief Bin Wei suddenly said sternly.

"Yes!" Military Commander Chang Yi immediately stood in awe. At this moment, he was full of energy and was waiting for the commander-in-chief to give the next order.

Fighting against creatures from the underworld, even a monarch-level war, Chang Yi believed that after this battle, he would be able to brag about it to his old comrades for the rest of his life!

"Now lead the Fourth Army to evacuate Zhenbei Pass and then head east." Commander-in-Chief Bin Wei said.

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone was stunned, and the shock on their faces was beyond words.

"Commander-in-chief... did I... did I hear it wrong?" Chang Yi asked in a low voice with a very strange expression.

"Now lead the four divisions' army to evacuate Zhenbei Pass and head east, and set off immediately!" Bin Wei repeated.

Chang Yi's deputies were also furious. One of them pointed at Bin Wei and shouted, "Are you crazy? Our situation is very bad. Are you sending us away now because you are afraid that we will steal your military merit? Our summoning pioneers have sacrificed so much. Several teams fell under the city wall in order to stop those underworld trackers from escaping to the Hades Frog. Their lives are in danger!!"

"What on earth has happened to our Fourth Army that has displeased you, that you have to trample on us like this!"

Chang Yi did not say anything, he just looked at Bin Wei silently, but Bin Wei did not show any movement, even though his deputies spoke to him.

This decision really made the soldiers collapse. They had just fought back a little bit from the hands of the underworld boatmen, and then they were immediately dispatched. Don’t they know that they are now at war!
"Commander-in-chief, are you sure?" Chang Yi asked.

"You have heard my order." Bin Wei said.

"Okay, then I'll listen to you. YL City behind Zhenbei Pass is my hometown. Once the long-term migration order is issued, it will take three days for everyone to evacuate. I can leave and head east, but if anything goes wrong in Yulin City, even if you are a general, I will never let you go!" Chang Yi said with a red face.

Several of his deputies were also shocked by Chang Yi's decision, and looked crazy.

Chang Yi suddenly yelled, then signaled everyone to shut up.

"Military orders are military orders. Now all four armies listen up. Immediately evacuate from Zhenbei Pass and head east." At this time, Chang Yi unbuttoned the blood-stained military coat on his body, then turned and walked towards the city wall.

"Don't worry, these underworld creatures can only step over my corpse, otherwise they will never touch your city at all." Bin Wei also took a deep breath, and after a long time he said to Chang Yi's back.

Chang Yi continued walking. He followed the flower vine bridge and led all the members of the four armies back to the Zhenbeiguan Fortress City. As soon as he arrived at the tower, Chang Yi punched the stone wall hard, and the wall shook violently in an instant.

"Bastard, I haven't treated her as my superior for all these years, why should I listen to her now? If something happens in Yulin... Bastard, bastard!!!" Chang Yi cursed madly, and then punched the stone wall.

Several deputies felt heartbroken. As expected, this female commander was still holding a grudge and still remembered their previous disrespect for her. She was also jealous of the strength and bravery of their Fourth Army. She probably wanted to build up her own power in Zhenbei Pass!

……

"Three days. No matter what is behind the Hades Frog, I will never let them cross this line of defense during these three days!" Bin Wei did not look back at Chang Yi and the others at this time, but he clenched his fists tightly.

What happened?
Bin Wei didn't know either, but since the higher-ups issued such an emergency dispatch order even though they knew that this place had been attacked by unknown underworld creatures, it meant that something big was happening in the country!
Now Zhenbei Pass is in the most difficult period. If it weren't for the existence of the ancient city wall, the magicians of Zhenbei Pass would have no way to deal with the underworld trackers. They didn't get the support they deserved, but the most powerful army was dispatched away. How could Bin Wei not be heartbroken? ? However, no matter how heartbroken she was, no matter how difficult it was, she had to continue to stay here. There were so many cities behind Zhenbei Pass. Although these cities were not big and their defenses were limited, all they could rely on was the Zhenbei Pass fortress city, so they must not let the demons get through!

"Where are your friends?" Bin Wei calmed down and asked Zhao Manyan.

“Are you talking about Mo Fan?” Zhao Manyan asked.

Binwei nodded immediately.

Since Mo Fan and his sentry learned about the appearance of the underworld creatures earlier, it means that he must know more than them who are guarding the city. Now Bin Wei needs to know how many underworld creatures there are and where these underworld creatures come from!

"But we don't know either." Lingling shook her head.

A long time had passed, and Lingling didn't know where Mo Fan was. Did Mo Fan contact the top management of HJT...

"But he must have tried his best to stop it." Lingling continued.

Lingling knows Mo Fan very well. Mo Fan will not back down. He has blood in his bones that is hotter than fire. If bad things and dangers are still coming, he will definitely stop them.

“I think Lin Ran has fought this thing before. You see, this Hades Frog has the aura of Lin Ran’s fire on it.” Although Zhao Manyan didn’t want to think the worst, the severely injured Hades Frog appeared, and Lin Ran was not there, so he was probably in danger.

Silence, no one spoke.

"Commander-in-chief, I have a question." Lingling asked after a while.

"Just ask?" Bin Wei glanced at the Hades Frog that had stopped moving temporarily.

The already severely damaged Hades Frog was obviously a little afraid of this steel wall. It no longer attacked rashly, which gave the Zhenbei Pass troops who were about to be dispatched some breathing time.

"The ancient Great Wall doesn't just exist at Zhenbei Pass. There's also one in the ancient capital, so there must be inheritors of the ancient Great Wall like you in the ancient capital. But why didn't they form such a Great Wall defense when facing the undead catastrophe? Although it still couldn't stop the undead catastrophe, it could have allowed more people on the outer city wall to evacuate to the inner city, right?" Lingling asked.

Binwei couldn't help revealing a bit of bitterness, and seemed unwilling to answer.

After a long while, Bin Wei asked, "Who do you think built the defenses of the ancient Great Wall?"

Lingling was also stunned. After she figured it all out, she gradually showed shock on her face. In her mind, she still remembered a very brief introduction from the history book of the nine-year compulsory magic education:
The Ancient King, he is the greatest magician in history, the founder of the Undead System, and his attainments in Earth Magic have also reached the pinnacle...

……

Dust is constantly blown up by the wind. After a period of time, many loess lands will reveal hard soil and edges, and then be polished by time, forming rocks, Gobi, hard ground...

From a distance, this hard soil looks like an uneven stone, and then spread across the vast northern border land. There is a lot of bright red blood smeared on it, and the wind cannot blow it away. The blood slowly blends into the orange-yellow color of the hard soil.

There were more than a hundred corpses lying in all directions, some broken, some shattered, some barely intact, and there were pits and holes around the corpses, with flames still burning, blackened pits struck by lightning, and ice that had frozen for a kilometer and had not yet completely melted...

In the hazy sky, a group of vultures were still hovering. They were the lowest creatures. The huge destructive force caused here before had shattered their courage. But when everything calmed down, they flew back. Their greed for food overcame their fear of power.

They circled for a long time, and only after making sure that the people below would not move again did they circle down slowly.

At this time, a brave gray vulture landed, and it pecked at the body of a man in a black robe. There was already a hole in the man's chest, so the peck was full of deliciousness, and the sense of satisfaction made the vulture flap its wings.

Seeing that their companion was fine, the other vultures also flew down and began to enjoy the feast.

"Kukuku~~~~"

Suddenly, a vulture screamed and flew into the air in fright.

It turns out there is still a living being among the corpses, and the vulture has noticed it...

However, the other brave vultures knew that this guy was no different from being dead, so they boldly walked up to the side of the breathing man.

They began to peck at the man's face, and then poked a bloody hole on his face. Several other vultures also flew over. They wanted to peck this angry man to death, so they pecked at him one after another, and in a short time, their beaks pecked the man's face beyond recognition.

……

Scorpion Lord Medusa looked at Lin Ran in his palm. After seeing that the Hades Frog did not move forward, the corner of his mouth slightly raised. However, there are many people under the Hades who can break the city wall.

For example, the Sphinx is a despicable guy who was almost crippled by Lin Ran and is still recovering from his injuries.

Thinking back to the battle with Lin Ran, she felt a little scared.

The flames of battle alone spread out and seriously injured the monarch-level Hades Frog.

And several extremely powerful monarch-level beings were also beaten up.

It only took half a minute for the Sphinx to be beaten and scream.

She was also knocked away by Lin Ran's punch. The fire was so terrifying that it made her scalp tingle.
