Full-Time Magister: Immortality Begins with Slaying Demons

[Slay one Warlord-level Evil Spirit Corpse General, gaining 242 HP (Demon)]

Looking at the words that appeared before him, Zhou Sining felt a surge of joy.

It has to be a warrior general! One of them can unleash hundreds of health points, which is equivalent to a dozen or twenty servant-level enemies!

"You really are gifted!" Su Zhe laughed heartily and slapped Zhou Sining on the back.

"Ahem!"

Zhou Sining coughed twice and silently moved away from Su Zhe.

Soldiers have a strong grip; that slap probably left marks on his back.

Soon, Jiang Bowen returned to the city wall, handed over command to Su Zhe, and gave Zhou Sining a thumbs up.

"Your student is amazing! I apologize for my previous offense."

"It's nothing," Zhou Sining said with a nonchalant smile.

Jiang Bowen's sarcastic remark wasn't a big deal in itself, especially since the military magistrate was sensible and knew his mistake and corrected it. Zhou Sining had even less reason to dwell on those one or two words.

The icy rain was still hitting his face when Su Zhe pulled his attention back: "Alright, we can talk about praise later. The night is still long, let's keep up the watch."

"By the way, Commander Su, I'm already a mid-level mage. Should we head to the west city wall to help?"

Su Zhe waved his hand: "Never mind him. You've only just broken through to the intermediate level and can't cast spells yet. The west city wall isn't safe for you."

"You only temporarily broke through to the intermediate level, so you're not within the summons range. Even if another summons is issued later, don't worry about it. It's not the highest-level mandatory summons, so ignore it. Besides, Su Zhe and I are here," Jiang Bowen added.

"I understand, thank you both," Zhou Sining said.

Although there are no explicit regulations, summons in ancient capitals are mostly mandatory. If a monk is reported for not responding to a summons, he may be punished.

The severity of the punishment is directly proportional to the level of the summons.

The "Recruitment Order for Intermediate-Level Mages" issued by the West City Wall is of medium quality; a single punishment will cost at least two days of financial pain.

However, with the guarantees of Commanders-in-Chief Su Zhe and Jiang Bowen, Zhou Sining is not afraid of that damned report at all.

The commander-in-chief is my brother; you can talk to him if you need anything.

With nothing on his mind, Zhou Sining felt relaxed and returned to his original fire mage team to continue killing undead. He hadn't forgotten that he still had a mission to complete.

……

……

After that, two more warrior skeletons appeared one after another. Fortunately, they were clumsy and Su Zhe and Jiang Bowen were able to kill them by working together, so it was a close call.

After a night of fierce fighting, as dawn broke and the sky began to lighten, signaling the end of the night, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhou Sining had already come down from the outer city wall and followed the other military mages to the dining car, where he received the same free breakfast.

"Is that enough? If not, there's more. It's all free, eat as much as you want." Su Zhe had somehow gotten close to him. "Let me tell you, we military mages receive government subsidies. There's a wide variety of benefits, and the treatment is excellent. You definitely won't be treated unfairly."

"That's enough, thank you, sir." Zhou Sining swallowed a mouthful of soy milk. "I'm not joining the army, thank you."

Su Zhe's eyes widened: "I haven't said anything yet!"

"Oh, then you go ahead," Zhou Sining said indifferently.

"..."

Su Zhe didn't give up and continued to persuade him: "Don't be so sure. With your talent, you would definitely be a key person to be trained in the army and you would definitely be studying at a military academy. You won't be like us, exposed to the wind, sun and rain every day."

"Military academy may be tough and tiring, but the benefits are great. Tuition and fees are waived, you get a salary, and you're guaranteed a job. You're already a mid-level mage, and at this rate, you might break through to the high-level after graduating with a master's degree. You'll be a member of the Military Intelligence Bureau, even more powerful than me, not to mention the other benefits."

"How about it? I'll write you a letter of recommendation."

"I have no interest in risking my life; I just want to live a good life," Zhou Sining said with a smile.

Su Zhe was both angry and helpless: "Your student's awareness is really low!"

"If it's not high, it's not high." Zhou Sining couldn't stand Su Zhe's persuasion any longer, so she casually said this and got up to leave.

"Don't be so sure. You still have half a year until the college entrance exam, right? Why don't you think about it again? Let me know when you've made up your mind, and I really can write you a letter of recommendation."

Su Zhe quickly said a few more words, but only received a wave of his hand and a retreating figure from Zhou Sining.

"These students...sigh..." Su Zhe shook his head helplessly, "It's getting harder and harder to recruit people!"

Zhou Sining, who had already walked away, couldn't see Su Zhe's troubles. Even if she did, she would just laugh it off.

He came to the ancient capital to kill demons and gain life points to prolong his life, so what's the point of going to military school?

It wasn't that he thought military academy students had a tough and tiring life, but rather that his circumstances didn't allow him to go to a military academy for training.

Keep in mind that he only had three and a half years left to live, and after a night of fierce fighting, he only managed to accumulate nearly two thousand life points.

Military academies are known for their strictness, which greatly reduces students' freedom. Most military academies also focus on training officers and do not frequently send students out to fight demons and gain experience.

If he can't kill demons frequently and safely, who will replenish his lost health?

Before I knew it, I hadn't even finished my four-year undergraduate degree when I died.

Zhou Sining quickly put the matter out of his mind and went to the Second War Zone's military camp to find his own place to stay.

Six-person room, private bathroom, 6 pm to 6 am, meals and accommodation included, 200 yuan per day.

Those who know are doing a hunter mage quest, but those who don't might think they've returned to their past life when they were eighteen and entered an electronics factory.

But we can't ask for much; we've already accepted the task, so we have to do it.

……

For the next two weeks, Zhou Sining diligently carried out his tasks.

Having broken through to the intermediate level, my magical energy has greatly increased. What used to be enough for one night can now last for two days if I conserve it.

Without magical energy, he retreated to the logistics unit to assist, using his rest time to meditate and replenish his magical energy.

Once his magic power was almost replenished, he returned to the front lines to help kill demons.

Over the course of half a month, thanks to the powerful talent brought by the Gang Sha, Zhou Sining became increasingly proficient in the intermediate level.

Unfortunately, he didn't have much free time to draw star maps, and naturally, he didn't master that legendary small domain.

But there's no rush. He has plenty of free time to cultivate, since the mission is over.

……

"The reward of three thousand has been settled. In view of your excellent performance, I have given you a lot more hunter points, which is almost enough for you to be promoted to intermediate hunter. Remember to check your account."

"Okay, thank you, Commander Su," Zhou Sining said gratefully.

Su Zhe waved his hand: "No need for thanks. Come and do your duty whenever you have time."

After thinking for a moment, he added, "If you change your mind, feel free to contact me. Although I'm just a small commander, I can take you to see the commander-in-chief of our second front. His recommendation letter can get you into the Central Military Academy, one of the six major military academies, which is no worse than the Imperial Academy." Before parting, Su Zhe still didn't forget to recruit Zhou Sining.

Zhou Sining shrugged: "You've said that thirty-eight times already, I'm tired of hearing it."

"What are you saying, brat! I'm only thirty, I'm not old at all!"

"Then what wrinkle-reducing miracle product do you use?" Jiang Bowen ruthlessly exposed him from the side.

"..."

"Then I'll be going. Goodbye, officers." Zhou Sining waved and turned to leave.

Zhou Sining was quite happy to leave the outer city wall and return to his suburban house.

I've earned quite a few life points in the past two weeks, over eight thousand.

This is no small sum; we need to think carefully about how to spend it.
