Versatile Mage: One innate talent for each system

Chapter 140 The Great Tide Arrives
After a good night's sleep, everyone slept soundly.

As soon as it was light, after a quick breakfast, we immediately boarded a vehicle and headed towards Tokyo.

The long car ride had left everyone exhausted, and they slumped listlessly in their seats. No one spoke in the car; only the sound of the wind outside could be heard.

My ultimate goal in coming to Japan was to train at the Tokyo Naval Battle Castle.

Resources are allocated based on performance during training.

Each official team member has the right to allocate roles, while substitute players do not. However, for a big spender like Zhao Manyan, it doesn't matter whether he allocates roles or not.

The vehicle was moving very fast.

Several hours later, the group arrived in Tokyo without delay and headed straight for Naval Battle City.

...............

Tokyo Naval Battle Castle.

Located on the coast of Japan, this colossal fortress boasts walls that resemble a magnificent dike, stretching as far as the eye can see along the coastline. It is unknown how far it was built to defend against sea monsters.

Viewed from the air, the Naval Battle City is exactly crescent-shaped, firmly protecting Tokyo City within it.

Every mage who comes to the Sea Battle City is amazed by its magnificent scale, and then when the sea monsters attack the city, they tremble with fear at the sight of the boundless sea monsters!
Tokyo Naval Battle Castle, one of the world's four major naval battle castles!

"I'm exhausted. This naval city is really huge. It took us half a day to get here," Zhao Manyan said, panting.

The group had now arrived at the Sea Battle City.

"Old Zhao, no offense, but your physique is too weak. You should work out," Mo Fan complained.

A mid-level mage's physique is generally better than that of the best athletes. Zhao Manyan got tired just climbing a few stairs; he had truly been drained of his health by wine and women.

The group gazed at the deep ocean for a while.

They then rushed to the reporting office that their mentors had instructed them to go to for the report.

The person in charge of receiving them was not their mentor, but Lai Hengbao, the receptionist for the Chinese hunters of the Sea Battle City.

The information in his hand clearly showed that Jiang Yuan and his group were an ordinary hunter team from China, with mediocre strength.

"Alright, your lodgings have been prepared. Remember to pay when you leave. Also, don't keep the demon galls you get from hunting sea monsters for yourself. You must hand them all over to the district lord of your area. Don't break the rules here."

"Oh, right, there's one more thing. Your agent asked me to tell you that you need to advance to a four-star squad as soon as possible during your time in Naval Battle City, otherwise you won't get any pay." At this point, receptionist Lai Hengbao couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement.

A four-star team is not something an ordinary hunter can achieve; it requires a team of elite hunters who have been through countless battles to obtain.

How powerful could these hunters in their twenties be?

This domestic agency is even more unscrupulous than him; it seems they want to pocket all their earnings.

Lai Hengbao's words left everyone scratching their heads.

"Damn it, isn't our mentor messing with us?" Mo Fan complained.

"The mentor probably wanted to make the training more realistic," Ai Jiangtu finally managed to say after a long pause.

Everyone was speechless.

Instead of getting proper training, they ended up doing manual labor and illegal work.

Since things have come to this, we can only try to reach the four-star team as soon as possible.

Of all the people, only Jiang Yuan knew the truth.

Although the mentor said that the goal was to reach the four-star squad, the actual training content was just the next naval battle city tide.

Once the great tide has passed, the ordeal is over.

Otherwise, relying solely on various contributions to advance to a four-star team would take at least two or three years.

By then, the Nationalist government's war will have ended long ago.

According to the predictions of Naval Battle City.

The next high tide will be the day after tomorrow. During this time, everyone will study what kind of sea monsters will appear in the high tide, so as to avoid any unexpected situations due to unfamiliarity with the sea monsters.

…………

Time passed quickly.

As the high tide arrived, waves hundreds of meters high crashed against the sea battle city's seawall, creating a deafening roar.

Every burst of spray poured down like a torrential downpour across the streets of Naval Battle City.

Every mage here is fighting with all their might to hunt down the sea monsters hidden in the tides; a slight mistake could result in their death.

The 20th block where the Huaxia National Government team is located.

Because of the high tide, half of the area beyond ten blocks was submerged, and everyone could only deal with the sea monsters from the rooftops.

But the people in the 20th block were all stunned.

Before their eyes, a dazzling magical light shone forth.

One person unleashed a giant flaming fist, instantly taking the lives of several sea monsters.

There were still people standing there, and the siren couldn't get close; they were killed by an invisible force.

There were more than a dozen people, all of whom displayed incredible power, far surpassing those high-star teams.

What shocked them most was that one of the young men inside was able to face a commander-level sea monster head-on.

If it were them, they would have no choice but to run away if they encountered a commander-level sea monster!
At this moment, four or five commander-level sea monsters were hidden in the tide in front of Jiang Yuan. These were the last few commander-level sea monsters in the 20th block; the others had already been killed by him.

"Hey Lao Jiang, do you need my help?" Mo Fan shouted from afar.

Jiang Yuan waved his hand and shouted back, "You can kill all the sea monsters in front of you first! These few of mine are hiding in the water, I'll drag them out first!"

After speaking, Jiang Yuan turned around, his pupils radiating a silvery light of spatial energy.

The seawater in front of them was torn open in several places, revealing the commander-level sea monsters lurking inside.

The moment they sensed their exposure, they roared and charged toward Jiangyuan.

There were four or five commander-level sea monsters, which made the hunters who couldn't help behind them break out in a cold sweat, and they didn't dare to look in this direction.

However, the next moment, their eyes went blank.

In an instant, more than a dozen ice spears radiating bone-chilling cold materialized around Jiang Yuan.

The ice spears pierced through the sky, easily piercing the sea monsters as if they were tofu, their powerful force dragging them down to the distant water.

The moment they touched the water, the icy air froze the entire surface of the water!
Those commander-level sea monsters were naturally taking in more air than exhaling, their lives hanging by a thread.

"Where did these young hunters come from? How can they be so strong? Even a five-star squad wouldn't have this much strength, would they?"

"I heard they are Chinese hunters who just arrived in Naval Battle City."

"Hiss, I'm afraid they'll be able to advance to the three-star squad this time."

"Of course! More than a dozen commander-level monsters died at their hands. Their contribution is enough to get them promoted to a three-star squad."

"too strong!"

With the death of the Commander-level Siren, there are no more powerful Siren in the Twentieth District. All that's needed is to watch out for new Siren coming in with the tide and then do the cleanup.

This tide was the easiest the veteran hunters in the 20th block had ever experienced, and there were no casualties.

Jiang Yuan and his group's impressive display of power in the 20th block became known to the other blocks as well.

As the tide receded, many hunters went to the 20th block to confirm the truth of the rumors.

The result was yet another series of shocks.
