I asked you to be a mage, not to raise a nine-tailed fox

Chapter 286 The Man Carrying the Burden
Don’t you want to eat meat?

Don’t you want to go to the Imperial Court?
Don’t these warriors want better equipment?

Of course not.

No one thinks legendary equipment is bad.

Even Mina, when he just reached the sixth level, got a full set of four-star and five-star star equipment.

This is such an obvious improvement in strength.

However, right now, these Eastern Territory warriors who were at the peak of level six had even reached the quasi-legendary level.

They are all just ordinary star equipment.

It would be nice to have one or two weapons.

Ansana couldn't help it after watching for a while.

Kureya, who was riding on the same horse with Mina, tightened her grip on Mina's clothes.

She seemed to be enduring it.

The monsters in the sea below rushed to the shore wave after wave, one after another, as if they were endless.

It impacted the defense line of the Eastern Territory warriors and consumed their physical strength and magic power.

"I'll go first."

Eliot Legend, I couldn't help it any longer.

He had already seen that in the depths of the polluted ocean, he could vaguely see a rather large figure.

It was a legendary sea monster.

There was no way he would let this kind of monster get close to his warriors.

With the addition of Elliot Legend, the pressure on the warriors below dropped sharply, and those sea monsters that rushed up were harvested one after another like seafood.

But Elliot is only one person after all.

The coastline is very long.

There are too many.

What's more, in the depths of the ocean, that huge figure has slowly surfaced.

It was a shark of gigantic size.

Its eyes were bloodshot as it looked at Elliot Legend on the shore as if it was ready to attack at any time.

Elliot Legend burst out with a wave of magic power, and swept away the nearby sea monsters with one sword. The bloody red shark suddenly jumped up and rushed towards Elliot Legend.

Its attack method was very primitive, it just rushed forward blindly, but it emitted a terrifying and heart-pounding magical power, its body swelled up, and the sense of power was visible to the naked eye.

Elliot Legend also swung the sword in his hand and stabbed out.

The sword was actually bitten by the bloody red shark.

The huge force actually caused Elliot Legend to stagger.

Elliot Legend fell into the water, making it a little inconvenient for him to move, which made the bloody red shark fight more fiercely.

As a wave of magic power spread, the sea monsters seemed to sense the order of their king and rushed forward madly.

Wave after wave of monsters came one after another, and the warriors on the coastline could hardly bear it anymore.

Seeing this, Mina couldn't hold back any longer, he looked at the Grand Duke of the East Territory standing beside him.

"I want to go down."

He said.

“This is their fight.”

The Grand Duke of the East Territory said calmly.

"But it is also my battle. I am also from Ansu and from the East."

The Duke of the East Territory glanced at Mina, then looked at the battle group below, and said calmly: "Such battles happen every day on the coast of the East Territory. You should know that the length of the Polluted Shore is far beyond your imagination. You helped them today, but when you are gone in the future, they will still endure such attacks. This is their mission."

His words may seem ruthless and cruel, but they are the truth.

The ocean is so vast.

The number of monsters in the polluted ocean is far beyond the number of monsters on land.

The number of monsters killed here in a day is even greater than that killed by the Royal Knights in a year.

And Mina couldn't stay here forever and fight with these warriors.

but……

Mina still said, "At least I can try it today."

He said.

Now that you have seen and encountered it, it is impossible for you to do nothing.

The Grand Duke of the East Territory looked towards Mina. There were stars shining in the old man's eyes.

He looked at Mina for a long time, then suddenly laughed.

"Okay, let's go."

He turned his gaze back to the battlefield.

"Today you are Elliot's adjutant. I will give you the supreme command of this regiment."

"Go."

He said.

Then, the Grand Duke of the East stopped talking.

Mina smiled.

Everyone in Mina's team laughed.

The Elf Princess was a little confused about the situation.

And Onamir over there seemed to have anticipated this.

Mina raised his hand and threw a dagger over, and at the same time several pieces of equipment fell into Onamir's hands.

These are actually the precious protective equipment of the five-star planet.

And that dagger was much better than the one he gave her last time.

Most of these equipment were captured by Mina in the previous battle with the Snow Country and were pieced together.

There are a few more who were replaced by Kuleiya.

Onamir looked at the equipment in her hand that she had never had before - these five-star equipment were very precious even to His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince.

It is even more impossible for it to be her turn.

And here at Master Mina...

Without saying a word, she put it on.

She knew that these equipments were not something that a little maid captive like her could possess, and she was afraid that they would have to be taken back later.

But, just enjoy it first.

As for the battle below?
Onamir quickly put all the equipment on herself, and at the same time, the light of three magic shields lit up on her body.

With Master Mina around, how could she be in danger?

And the other maid, Miss No. 2, also got her own equipment.

Originally, Mina wanted to give the elf lady a set of mage equipment.

But after seeing Onamir's equipment, she also asked for a set of melee equipment.

The same three magic shields were put on the body.

She looked at Mina.

"If I...perform to your satisfaction..."

She bit her lip and lowered her voice, as if she felt a little ashamed to ask for a reward, but...

Mina just laughed.

"I'll give you some rewards that will satisfy you."

Miss Elf's eyes lit up.

Together with Onamir, he rushed down.

The two maids were very fast and rushed directly into the battle.

Both of them have the combat power of the sixth stage and the ninth level, and with the support of their equipment and Mina's magic shield, they have exerted a combat power comparable to the sixth stage and the tenth level.

Above the sky, Mel raised her hand, and countless rays of light from ice spears bloomed at her fingertips.

With every flash, a monster will be taken away. This is the power of the legendary wizard.

Ansana followed Mel and released magic.

Her equipment is, in some ways, better than Mel's.

Mel's legendary equipment was all pieces of equipment she bought from various sources to increase the total amount of magic power.

In this kind of battle that requires the use of ice spears, the effect of the total amount of magic power is not obvious.

But Ansana's equipment is a special legendary suit that was tailored for Ansana's physical condition by the Grand Duke of the West, who asked the master of Anros to tailor it.

A total of six pieces plus a staff.

Every time she swung the staff, it was a full-strength attack comparable to her current level, and it was an attack power comparable to that of a quasi-legendary level.

However, for Ansana, the consumption is very small.

This also greatly improved her harvesting efficiency. Wherever the wind blade passed, the monsters fell.

In fact, the speed of harvesting is no less than that of Eliot's legend.

The fight between Lucia and Mina is a bit clumsy. They are both melee mages.

They all fight with fists and feet. The attack power is enough. Every punch can smash a monster into pieces.

But the two's physical skills are far inferior to Kuleiya's.

In terms of speed and agility, he is not as good as Mi Xiaohu.

There is no charging skill like a warrior.

It was like a tank, pushing forward. Every time a monster was smashed with a punch, there would always be more monsters coming.

At this time, Mina chose to release flames around him.

Grill these sea creatures.

Lucia's fighting style is similar to Mina's, and it is quite effective when going through mazes and fighting bosses.

But in this battlefield where teammates and enemies are everywhere.

Still a little stretched.

Lucia decided to go for support, and those ninth and tenth stage monsters that seemed difficult to deal with became her targets.

And Mina also transferred to logistics.

At first, the warriors in the East Territory were not impressed by the new commander.

At first glance, he is a young man who comes here to gild himself.

For this kind of little guy, it is better to be obedient and stay quietly.

Not getting hurt is better than anything else.

However, Mina's fighting ability was beyond their imagination, and the power of his punches did reduce a lot of burden for the soldiers.

Very impressive young man.

However, the impact on the situation is not that great, and is even less than the support from the air.

But, when Mina took out a large amount of star water and star bread.

All this has changed.

After drinking a bottle of water, the mages can release their magic power at will.

Healing mages are better able to treat the wounded on the front lines who can only be healed barely.

Auxiliary mages don't have to calculate their mana to provide shields for their teammates.

And when those warriors stuffed two pieces of bread into their stomachs and charged into the group of monsters and were beaten up, they still had the ability to run back.

Mina's existence has become the pillar in their hearts.

His role on the battlefield is no less than that of a legendary warrior.

This time the attack finally ended at sunrise.

Mina sat down on the ground.

Elliot looked at the seafood on the ground in disbelief.

A large number of soldiers who still had the strength to fight ran to pick up the corpses.

On the other side, Mel was holding a bloody red shark in his hand. Although it was difficult to kill it in the sea, with the cooperation of Elliot, he managed to kill it.

"Is this the end?"

Elliot took a deep breath and looked at Mina deeply.

There is no doubt about the importance of this young man to the battlefield.

If it were in the past, this battle would have taken at least two days.

but now.

It took only one night to resolve the crisis, and even killed a legendary bloody red shark.

In the next month, the brothers in District 38 will no longer have to suffer.

"Thank you."

Back at the temporary camp, Elliot looked at Mina and thanked him sincerely.

But Mina just smiled. This time the battle was much more difficult than all the mazes he had experienced before.

In fact, it was no less than the one-hour long battle with the legend.

He finally experienced firsthand the hardships faced by the Eastern Territory warriors.

The endless stream of monsters that came one after another like surging waves was really despairing.

And none of these soldiers wanted to escape.

The determined gaze is admirable.

Mina watched the morning sun rising above the sea.

It was like blood, dyeing the entire polluted ocean red. It was hard to tell whether it was from the monsters, the warriors, or the sun's rays.

"The demonic tide in the Eastern Polluted Ocean has been surging recently, but the Grand Duke of the Eastern Territory said that it is still under control."

Mina thought back to every time he heard the Twisted Cactus's Satyr Morning News when he was in the capital of Ansu.

This is an understatement.

It seems like every day, it is repeated over and over again like a routine speech.

but.

The dedication behind this...

Mina was silent.

He gritted his teeth, climbed up and made more star water and star bread.

Both Onamir and the Elf Princess are back.

The clothes on both of them had been slightly damaged.

Dripping water can wear away a stone, not to mention the attack of so many monsters, how could there be no losses?

But fortunately, Mina's shield blocked too much damage for both of them.

"grown ups."

At this moment, an adjutant suddenly whispered in Elliot's ear.

"There's something wrong with the demonic tides in Area 36 and Area 42. It seems like there's a legendary demonic tide."

Elliot, who was eating magic bread and drinking star water, stood up directly.

"Let the soldiers get ready. Those who can move should follow me to provide support."

He was not surprised at all by the continuous battles, as if he was already familiar with the rhythm.

He stood up and issued one order after another. Some soldiers who had almost finished their rest stood up immediately when they heard that they were to go out to provide support.

There was excitement in his eyes.

Elliot looked at Mina and said, "You should go back. Now is the time when the demonic tide is surging. It will be fine after this period of time."

Although Mina is here, he has already given them a lot of help.

But Mina is just a guest of the Grand Duke of the East after all, he does not belong here.

The fighting throughout the night yesterday had given his soldiers plenty of opportunities to catch their breath.

As long as we make good use of this advantage, this demonic tide will soon subside.

Mina glanced at the girls.

Everyone, even Mi Xiaohu, was looking at Mina.

There was no trace of retreat in their eyes.

It's more of an expectation now that I'm here.

The Elf Princess Helenia silently looked at Mina, Princess Lucia, and Ansana, the Grand Duke of the West who should have been living a life of luxury.

Helenia was exhausted both physically and mentally, and she wanted to close her eyes and have a good sleep, but her heart seemed to be gripped by something.

She was silent.

Is this Anzu?

She looked at Onamir, who was also a captive like her.

Although Maid No. 1 was tired, she was also eager to try.

The elf maid fell silent again.

Mina looked around and smiled.

He looked at Elliot beside him.

“We’re responsible for another area.”

Elliot hesitated.

Suddenly, an old man's voice appeared on the scene.

The haggard old man walked over.

When the soldiers from the East Territory saw the newcomers, they all saluted and looked at the Grand Duke of the East Territory with respect and enthusiasm.

The Grand Duke of the East walked up to Mina.

There are stars flowing in his eyes.

The scorching sun of the rising sun could not block the starlight in his eyes. The corners of his mouth curled up, and he could not suppress the admiration for Mina in his eyes.

"Boy, I allow you to play here for three more days. After three days, go back to your Ernst and do what you should do."
