Random Treasure Chests in Full-Time Magician

Chapter 58 Class Reunion

Everyone changed out of their wet clothes outside, and soon the rustling sounds of changing clothes came from inside the cave, making everyone outside feel itchy, especially when they thought of Asha's graceful figure.

Before long, Liu Ru came out dressed in clean clothes, smiled slightly, and said, "Come in, everyone."

The crackling of the campfire occasionally made the cave less dark and silent. Everyone was exhausted after the battle and being rained on for half the night. After the wounded had their wounds treated and changed into dry clothes, they lay down on the dry grass to rest, too tired to speak.

Asha'ruya has also changed into a new veil, this time a more alluring purple, making her look even more charming and captivating.

"What are you looking at? Look again and I'll gouge your eyes out!" one of Azharia's servants shouted at the dwarf.

Azharia also looked at the short man with curiosity.

"Hehe, it's nothing. It's just that we've been through so much along the way and we still don't know your name?" the short man said gruffly.

"Ye Meng'e, Ye as in leaf, Meng as in dream, E as in graceful, you can call me Meng'e," Asha'ruya said in a serious tone.

Asha'ruya noticed Mo Fan's expression of trying not to laugh but holding it in and asked curiously, "What's wrong? Is something the problem?"

"Did you come up with this name on the spur of the moment? E'e... Meng'e, very few people in our country have names like that. Actually, Cuihua would be better. You can even add it to your surname, like Elizabeth-Cuihua, to show off your knowledge of both Chinese and foreign cultures." Mo Fan said seriously, but it was still clear that he was struggling to hold it in.

"Pfft! Hehehe..." Liu Ru burst out laughing and quickly explained, "Don't listen to his sister, your name is very nice, he's just teasing you."

Asha Ruya smiled nonchalantly, seemingly unconcerned about the joke Mo Fan had made on her.

"So what brings you to this dangerous land of the dead?" Mo Fan asked Asha Ruya curiously.

Bai Feng also looked over, because he didn't remember the specific events that happened in the original story. He only remembered that the villagers from Huacun who were willing to leave were brought to the ancient capital, then there was the class reunion, and then the undead siege.

The woman in black stockings blinked her beautiful eyes, revealing a hint of alluring charm, and said softly, "There is a colleague here who doesn't get along with others, and I need to come and talk to him about something."

"The rain has stopped, we can continue our journey now," one of Asha's companions said as he entered the cave.

"You're still going to Huacun?!" The short man looked at the group with a strange expression. They were already in this state, why were they still going? Were they crazy?

"I have to go!" Mo Fan's eyes were full of determination.

"Fine, fine, even if I'm unlucky, I thought you guys would give up halfway through."

After walking for most of the day, the group arrived at the outskirts of Huacun Village.

Upon entering the village, the village paths were in a mess, most of the houses had collapsed, and there were still traces of blood in some places.

It's obvious that this place, like Yangyang Village, was attacked. It's one thing to have living people, but why isn't there even a corpse?

"Oh, I'm so thirsty!" The short man saw a well in the center of the village and immediately ran over.

The short man pulled open the well cover and peered down, only to find it pitch black. Just as he was pondering how to pump the water up, a face suddenly emerged from the well, almost touching his own.

Both of them were startled. The short man was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, and a heavy thud came from the well!

Everyone looked in the direction of the short man, and seeing his appearance, they knew there was something wrong with the well.

Bai Feng knew, of course, that everyone in Huacun was hiding in the well. He walked to the edge of the well and looked down. Not long after, a pair of hands reached out from the well, grabbed the edge, and climbed out.

"You, you are Hong Jun!" the seedling said, looking at the young man who came up from the well.

"Who is it? Oh, you...you're the seedling from the next village!" The man named Hongjun who came up didn't recognize him at first, but then suddenly realized.

"Do you know where everyone from our village has gone?!" the seedling asked anxiously.

"I don't know. A few days ago, the people in our village were attacked by the spirits of the dead. We all had to hide in the well to escape the attack," said an elderly man in his fifties who came up next.

The seedling hid on the ground, looking utterly bewildered, while the short man went to comfort his partner.

Bai Feng looked at the well with curiosity. What kind of well could hold so many people? It turned out that dozens of people, men and women, old and young, had already climbed out of the well.

Then a young couple climbed out of the well. Mo Fan was excited when he saw the man. Yes, it was Zhang Xiaohou.

Just as Mo Fan was about to greet him, he saw Zhang Xiaohou walk past him expressionlessly. Mo Fan turned around and looked at Zhang Xiaohou with a blank expression.

Mo Fan grabbed Zhang Xiaohou's shoulder and shook him anxiously, saying, "Houzi!"

Zhang Xiaohou looked at Mo Fan with a blank expression, while the young woman next to him said, "What are you doing?!"

"You, you don't recognize me!" Mo Fan asked, looking at Zhang Xiaohou's bewildered eyes with a shocked expression.

"So your name is Zhang Xiaohou! That's great! Now that your friend is here, you can go back. Maybe you can even regain your memories." Su Xiaoluo said to Zhang Xiaohou with a look of surprise and delight.

"No, I'm not going back!" Upon hearing that he was leaving Su Xiaoluo, Zhang Xiaohou immediately shrank behind her.

Bai Feng patted Mo Fan on the shoulder and whispered to him, "Tell the villagers later that we're taking them back to the ancient capital. There will be people protecting them there. Then, let Zhang Xiaohou go with this girl. Once we get back, we'll see how Zhang Xiaohou faces He Yu after he regains his memories. Maybe we can have two younger siblings!"

Mo Fan was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then looked at Zhang Xiaohou's strange expression, and then at Zhang Xiaohou's hand tightly holding Su Xiaoluo's hand, before revealing a maternal smile.

"Okay, let's do it this way!" Mo Fan turned his head and replied, suppressing a laugh.

Bai Feng patted Mo Fan on the shoulder again, then walked to a conspicuous spot and shouted loudly, "Something unexpected has happened in the Land of the Dead. The undead have started to riot. We're here to take you back to the Ancient Capital. Don't think that just because we're young we can't handle those terrifying undead. I've even killed commander-level demons. It doesn't matter if you don't know how strong a commander-level demon is. Just know that a commander-level demon can command thousands of undead. Now! Villagers who want to go to the Ancient Capital, stand behind me!"

Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze turned to Bai Feng. Those older members who didn't know he was a commander-level figure were thinking, "Is this little kid really that powerful?!"

Before long, most of the villagers came to Bai Feng's side, seemingly to follow him back to the ancient capital. However, some villagers did not believe in Bai Feng and only believed in the village's "holy water".

As for Asha'ruya? She left shortly after arriving in the village.

Seeing that no one was willing to leave the village, Bai Feng directly said to Mo Fan, "Let's get ready. We'll have the villagers prepare the charred garlic, and then we'll return to the ancient capital!"

Mo Fan nodded, then said to Su Xiaoluo, "Have the villagers prepare some charred garlic, as you'll inevitably encounter spirits on the way back."

Su Xiaoluo nodded and turned to discuss with the villagers the supplies they would need for the journey.

After another cup of tea's time, Bai Feng frowned as he looked at the villagers carrying large and small bags. After pondering for a moment, he instructed Ying Sha to release a large Shadow Demon. Ying Sha nodded in Bai Feng's shadow, and then Bai Feng's shadow expanded to a massive size of a hundred meters.

Amidst the villagers' exclamations and panic, a hundred-meter-long shadow turtle crawled out from Bai Feng's shadow.

"Go on up there. You don't have to worry about being attacked by the undead up there, and it will save you a lot of time." Bai Feng took the lead and had the turtle lie down and jump up.

The villagers were initially afraid, but after a few braver villagers came up, they climbed up one after another.

Once everyone was on the giant tortoise, Bai Feng directed it to move towards the ancient capital. Although the tortoise was a bit slow, it was still quite fast, as each step covered tens of meters in length, making it a hundred meters long. It made its way to the north gate of the ancient capital.

At night, Bai Feng had the villagers eat gray garlic. The demons and undead that were transformed in the Shadow Space were of the same kind, so they were not regarded as enemies by the undead.

And so, they returned to the north gate of the ancient capital unharmed the next day.

At the north gate of the ancient capital, a young military mage, yawning, saw a colossal figure approaching. After scanning his eyes, he exclaimed, "Holy crap! Undead are attacking the city in broad daylight?!"

"What!" A high-level mage rushed out from inside the city wall, carefully observed the situation, and then stopped the military mage who was running to prepare to fight.

"Don't worry, that should be a high-level mage's summoned beast. There are many people standing on it," the high-level mage said to the nearby military mages who looked confused.

The military mage, who had been wondering why it wasn't attacking, suddenly realized that it was a high-level mage's summoned beast. The surging aura emanating from the summoned beast showed just how powerful the summoning mage was.

When Bai Feng's giant tortoise arrived at the city gate, several military mages walked out from inside the city. After Bai Feng made the giant tortoise slowly sink into the shadows, the villagers had already landed on the ground.

"Huh? Are you the village chief of Huacun?" The high-level mage looked at the village chief of Huacun.

"Yes, yes, I am the village chief of Huacun. I heard that the spirits near the ancient capital have been restless recently, so I followed this esteemed mage to the ancient capital."

"Your village is quite lucky. Here, take a look at this." The military magistrate handed over a newspaper.

"This, this, how could this be!" The village chief of Huacun looked at the contents of the newspaper with a shocked expression.

"Otherwise, I'd say your village is just lucky!" the military magistrate said irritably.

Bai Feng and Mo Fan took Zhang Xiaohou and Su Xiaoluo to the military region to find Instructor Feijiao to check on Zhang Xiaohou's condition.

"I didn't expect you to actually bring Zhang Xiaohou back. Thank you so much!" Instructor Feijiao said solemnly.

"No need, Xiao Hou is also our brother. It's just that Xiao Hou may have injured his brain..." Mo Fan said to Instructor Feijiao, wanting to know if Instructor Feijiao had any way to cure Zhang Xiao Hou.

"Alright, Houzi, there are no outsiders here, stop pretending!" Bai Feng kicked Zhang Xiaohou in the butt and interrupted him.

Everyone else looked at Bai Feng with surprise. Zhang Xiaohou was initially stunned, then smiled bitterly and said, "I didn't expect you to find out, Brother Bai. I'm being monitored by the Black Vatican, so I can only pretend to be crazy to fool them."

"Heh, I almost fell for your trick. If I hadn't been observing you so closely, I might have used illusion magic to awaken your dormant memories," Bai Feng said with a laugh.

Hearing Bai Feng's words and seeing Zhang Xiaohou's current state, everyone awkwardly touched their noses. What could they say? To admit they hadn't seen through Zhang Xiaohou's pretense would be too embarrassing.

"Instructor Flying Horn, could you find a high-level healing mage to treat Xiao Hou? He might have been ambushed by the Black Church. I can tell that Zhang Xiao Hou has some memory loss." Bai Feng said to Instructor Flying Horn. He couldn't see that Zhang Xiao Hou had memory loss; he only knew that Zhang Xiao Hou had been infected with the Forgetfulness Worm.

"What! You're serious?!" Instructor Feijiao and Mo Fan exclaimed in shock.

"Okay, I understand. I'll have Chairman Han Ji come over now." He then contacted the chairman of the Ancient Capital Tribunal.

Not long after, an elderly man with gray hair but full of energy walked in.

"President Han Ji, this is the young man. Come and take a look." Instructor Feijiao stepped forward, pointed at Zhang Xiaohou, and then explained to President Han Ji the possible attacks Zhang Xiaohou might have received.

"Okay, I think I know what it is!" President Han Ji ripped open Zhang Xiaohou's shirt. On Zhang Xiaohou's arm was a centipede that looked lifelike under his skin. Then Zhang Xiaohou seemed to have forgotten something, but couldn't remember it. He could only scream and hold his head.

"Forget the bug!" Instructor Feijiao exclaimed, then knocked Zhang Xiaohou unconscious with a karate chop.

Mo Fan looked a little nervous, but didn't dare to disturb him. Bai Feng patted Mo Fan and gave him a reassuring look.

Bai Feng then pulled the door open for Mo Fan and said to him, "He Yu doesn't know that Zhang Xiaohou is in trouble. Let's call her out and invite some of our old classmates from Bocheng. Don't let He Yu know about Xiaohou's current situation. Xiaohou will probably need to sleep for a while longer."

Mo Fan thought for a moment and followed Bai Feng toward the streets of Bocheng. On the way, Bai Feng called He Yu and asked her to invite her old classmates from Bocheng to get together.

He Yu said it was no problem. The group arrived at a local restaurant on Bocheng Street. Bai Feng and Mo Fan waited for a short while before someone opened the door and came in.

In the end, a total of five people came: Mu Bai, Zhou Min, Zhao Kunsan, Wang Sanpang, and He Yu. When they were chatting, Zhang Xiaohou was mentioned. Bai Feng said that Zhang Xiaohou had just finished a mission and was still in a meeting, so he sent him away.

Because Bai Feng was sitting on either side of two beautiful women, Zhou Min teased, "Bai Feng, are those your friends?"

Bai Feng smiled but didn't answer. He looked at Mu Bai and the others and teased, "What, has anyone among you managed to win over our class monitor Zhou?"

The men all chuckled silently.

"We heard from Xu Zhaoting that you guys are now legendary figures at Mingzhu Academy," Zhao Sanpang asked.

"Is that so? Let me see how strong you are now." Zhou Min grabbed Mo Fan's wrist to examine his cultivation level.

"What? It's just a mid-level level two." Then she looked at Bai Feng curiously.

"High-level, I guess," Bai Feng mumbled, taking a bite of the peeled shrimp Liu Xian had offered him.

"What?!" Everyone was shocked when they heard Bai Feng's cultivation level. Good heavens, we are all the same age and we are still in the early stage, while you are already in the advanced stage.

Not long after, Zhou Min told me that she was going to the city wall to kill the undead that night. Students in this ancient capital all go through this, and they go to the city wall from time to time to kill the undead to increase their courage.

As they ate, they got quite drunk. Being young and energetic, they shouted that they wanted to go to the city wall to kill the dead.

Bai Feng looked helplessly at the group of enthusiastic young men and could only follow them toward the city wall.
