Full-Time Magister: Immortality Begins with Slaying Demons
Chapter 98 The Return Journey
Zhou Sining finally found an opportunity to use his veto power.
Whether others are happy or not, I don't know, but he is definitely happy.
Having agreed to accompany him on his training, his task was to do his best to protect everyone's safety, especially Mo Fan, who was being targeted by Lu Nian.
Zhou Sining was not unprepared to work her hardest, but if there was an easier and more perfect method, why not use it?
Even if you dislike Lu Zhenghe and the others, they are still living, breathing human beings.
It was just a few words of bickering over a girl's affections; a beating would have been enough. There was no need to send them to their deaths.
What if you accidentally go too far and hurt innocent people?
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Zhao Manyan, Mo Fan, and Mu Nujiao are definitely on Zhou Sining's side.
After witnessing the domineering nature of the giant lizard pseudo-dragon, even the hot-tempered Luo Song lost all his temper and only thought about going home.
The remaining neutral parties, even if they were unwilling, could not say anything more because the minority had to submit to the majority.
Moreover, Zhou Sining has already used his veto power.
Dean Songhe granted him considerable power, and once he used that power, they would return first, no matter how unwilling they were.
If they do not comply, it will be considered unauthorized action, and Zhou Sining will not be held responsible for their deaths or injuries.
"No way! We've only surveyed a few very simple locations so far. At most, we'll get tens of thousands in resources when we get back. But once we complete most of the survey, we'll have close to ten million. Such a large sum of resources isn't something even the powerful families behind us can just give away!"
Lu Zhenghe panicked and hurriedly stopped the group that wanted to return.
Seeing his expression, the boys from the capital were completely bewildered. When did Lu Zhenghe become so bold?
"Besides, this was just an accident, wasn't it? That commander-level creature might have just come looking for food and has probably already left. It has already helped us deal with the pseudo-terror demon. Let's be careful from now on. If we all work together, even if we don't finish everything, we can at least probe ten or so points."
Lu Zhenghe continued to persuade, "Think about it, everyone. The more points we explore, the more resources we can obtain. Besides, we still have Zhou Sining, such a strong fighter. His Sand Hellfire Tiger, plus my Ghost Pattern Berserker Wolf, two whole warrior-level creatures, if they cooperate well, it will be easy to complete the survey mission..."
"Lu Zhenghe, is your family so poor that you can't even afford to eat? I'm about to die, and you're still worrying about these little resources," Xiao Feng asked coldly.
"You can go and survey it yourself. I'm not going to risk my life for you." Liao Mingxuan didn't bother to give Lu Zhenghe a friendly look.
Mingcong and Liao Mingxuan are good brothers, so naturally Mingcong is on his side.
Lu Zhenghe looked at Mu Ningxue: "Ningxue, didn't you previously think that you still needed to gain more experience to strengthen yourself?"
Upon hearing this, Mu Ningxue's beautiful embroidered eyebrows furrowed slightly.
It wasn't hesitation, but utter confusion.
What is Lu Zhenghe doing?
If Zhou Sining hadn't given a mandatory order, she might have chosen to stay, but she wouldn't force anyone to accompany her.
Now that Zhou Sining has issued a mandatory order, even if she is unwilling, she has no choice but to comply.
"Why do you insist on staying?" Mu Ningxue's eyes turned cold.
The intelligent girl had already realized that Lu Zhenghe's unusual behavior was not just because of resources.
Those present were all from prominent families. Although ten million in resources was indeed a rare sum of money for them, there was no need to risk their lives for it.
"Xuexue, why are you wasting your breath talking to him? He's just a coward who wants to drag others down with him!" Mo Fan couldn't stand Lu Zhenghe's dragging-out behavior at all.
"I didn't! Stop making baseless accusations!"
Lu Zhenghe had no good feelings towards Mo Fan, the man who claimed to be Mu Ningxue's ex-lover.
Seeing that another argument was about to break out, Zhou Sining sighed helplessly and walked up to Lu Zhenghe.
He was a bit taller than Lu Zhenghe, so Lu Zhenghe had to look up slightly to meet his gaze directly at that expressionless face.
"What do you want to do... bang!"
Before Lu Zhenghe could finish speaking, a fist carrying a violent aura slammed into his abdomen without warning!
"Useless people talk too much." Zhou Sining snorted coldly and took two steps back.
Only then did everyone see clearly his right fist, with its veins bulging, which was covered with a thin layer of white flame.
"you……"
Lu Zhenghe stared in disbelief at Zhou Sining's cold face. Intense pain shot up his spine and into his brain, forcing him to curl up into a bow shape like a boiled shrimp.
His once decent face was now contorted, his throat as if it were blocked, unable to even scream, only able to utter muffled "hoarse" sounds.
"Why aren't you dizzy yet?" Zhou Sining's tone was full of displeasure: "The physical fitness of a mid-level mage is still too much."
No sooner had he finished speaking than his right fist, covered in white flames, slammed out once more, aiming straight for Lu Zhenghe's cheek!
"Snap!"
The moment the fiery fist made contact with Lu Zhenghe, the first sound that rang out was the crisp crack of bones breaking!
Zhou Sining must have used a magical artifact; the speed and power of that punch were simply beyond what a normal person could produce!
"boom!"
Immediately afterwards, the white flames covering his fist instantly condensed into a ball of flame and then exploded, sending Lu Zhenghe flying two or three meters away!
"Bang!"
Lu Zhenghe collapsed to the ground like a lump of mud, motionless for a long time, before finally losing consciousness.
"You...!" Mu Ningxue looked at Zhou Sining, her face full of disapproval.
Although she was also unhappy with Lu Zhenghe, the flames were exploding on his face, and if she didn't control it properly, she could kill Lu Zhenghe!
"He's not dead, I know what I'm doing." Zhou Sining ignored Mu Ningxue and turned to Bai Tingting: "Bai Tingting, cast a healing spell on him."
"Huh? Oh, okay!" Bai Tingting, who was in a daze, finally realized what was happening and hurriedly walked to Lu Zhenghe's side.
After a careful inspection, it was found that the guy was indeed not seriously injured; he had simply been knocked unconscious by the shockwave from the nearby explosion.
This damage is nothing to a mid-level mage; a few days of rest will be enough.
"He's fine, he just needs a little time to wake up," Bai Tingting said.
Zhou Sining nodded, glanced at everyone again, and his expression was no longer as cold as before.
"Who else dares to oppose my orders?"
The 16 people looked at each other, but no one dared to speak.
The majority of people originally advocated returning, but now that Zhou Sining has lost his temper, they dare not disobey.
That Lu Zhenghe is really something. A little bit of resources is nothing compared to life. He doesn't want to leave, so he insists on dragging others to stay with him.
Now look what happened, you got beaten up, serves you right!
However, to be fair, Si Ning's control over flames this week is truly phenomenal.
The flames that exploded on Lu Zhenghe's face only stunned him; they didn't inflict any fatal wounds.
Mo Fan, Song Xia, and Zhao Mingyue, the three fire mages, pondered for a moment and realized that they were simply no match for Zhou Sining in igniting flames so discreetly and effortlessly.
"Since there are no objections, let's hurry back."
"Xu Dalong, you carry Lu Zhenghe in the middle; Liao Mingxuan and Shen Mingxiao scout ahead; Luo Song and Mu Nujiao, speed up; I'll lead the way, the rest of you focus on defense and controlling any sudden dangers."
"yes!"
The people who were named all agreed, not daring to cause any trouble with Zhou Sining.
