Full-Time Magician: Demon Mage

Chapter 74 Departure

Early the next morning, elite magic students from eight universities gathered at the training hall.

"We are going on this training trip with the military mages. This is your future chief instructor, Xu Yuan."

"From this moment forward, all orders for the next three months will be issued by the Head Instructor. Anyone who violates discipline will be expelled from the team at best, and brought before the Magic Tribunal at worst. I wish you all the best in your endeavors!"

Wei Ming's impassioned words highlighted his iron-willed spirit.

This created a sense of urgency and psychological pressure for everyone.

"I don't have much to say. Green Island is still waiting for our support."

"Set off!"

Xu Yuan immediately gave the order to depart, and everyone turned around and followed Xu Yuan's steps, embarking on their journey and boarding the bus that had been prepared in advance.

Three buses, carrying a group of magic students, headed towards the seaside port.

Before long, the vehicle arrived at the port, where a small warship was already docked, and many military mages were standing on the ship.

"Hurry up, assemble and board the ship!"

Xu Yuan was the first to get out of the car and took out a megaphone to shout.

As selected elite students, they naturally did not dawdle; they got off the bus one after another and quickly climbed the steps onto the warship.

"Instructor Xu Yuan, these students are all in your hands now!"

As the Dean of Studies at Mingzhu Academy, Wei Ming was a highly respected figure among the teachers. He spoke with Xu Yuan on behalf of the faculty.

"rest assured!"

Xu Yuan reached out and shook hands with Wei Ming. He hadn't expected to run into an exchange student from the university this time; it was a rare opportunity.

This time, he was able to command a large group of mid-level mages, which was a rare experience for him, based on Wei Ming's secret hints.

The captain of the Pearl Academy team is also a high-level mage, whose strength is no less than that of the teachers present. He is a hidden master.

Even if we encounter a commander-level opponent, it won't matter.

This immediately put his mind at ease!

Xu Yuan turned and left, leading a large group of elite students and military mages, boarding a warship and sailing overseas.

On the warship, another meeting was held.

"Time is of the essence, so I'll just share some basic knowledge and give you a brief overview of Green Field Island."

"The dangers at sea come from sea monsters and severe sea weather. If you encounter a storm, you must stick together, because demons may be lurking in the storm..."

"Green Island has been besieged by a group of tentacle demons from the outer sea. The characteristics of these demons are that their tentacles are extremely tough and flexible, able to extend and retract at will."

"Once you're entangled, all your bones and muscles will be bound, crushed, and the suction cups will suck you down to a mere skin!"

"However, these demons are not good at moving on land, so they are not easy to catch unless they are ambushed."

"Therefore, the purpose of this operation is to clear the tentacle monsters from the island. Without permission, you are not allowed to approach the coast. This is for your safety."

"Our post station is built on the mountaintop of the island, so there is not much danger until we encounter a large-scale attack by demons."

"Sirens have a natural aversion to land, and there are not many types of siren that can go to islands or like to go to islands."

……

Xu Yuan spoke for an hour, mostly delivering valuable information. The group of people below listened attentively, as this concerned their lives.

Afterwards, everyone stood on the deck. After all, this was not like land, and people could not move around freely. Otherwise, if a sea monster rushed up, it could easily cause chaos.

Military mages were stationed around the deck, ready to defend against any demons that rushed up.

"Captain, do you think we should join forces in this battle?"

Mu Ge led a group of people to surround Wang Teng. After all, overseas, only strength is the most reliable. As the strongest among them, Wang Teng naturally became the backbone.

"It's not that simple."

Wang Teng shook his head. After listening to Xu Yuan's insightful remarks, he immediately noticed some details.

Upon hearing this, everyone perked up their ears.

"Green Field Island is about three kilometers wide and more than four kilometers long. Its terrain is surrounded by high mountains on the outside, plains on the inside, and a long, narrow tail."

"I estimate that Instructor Xu Yuan will assign you tasks according to the magic combination, patrolling the island from the inside out to ensure its internal security."

"In the early stages, the ones who actually fought along the coastline were the military mages, because they were more experienced and had a more stable mentality."

"I'll hand over the patrol duties to you, so the military mages can focus on dealing with the coastal demons."

"Of course, you will also have opportunities to perform. After all, the patrol work is just to help you adapt to the living environment in advance, so as to quickly familiarize yourself with the terrain and improve your survival rate."

"After three months, we mid-level mages will definitely be sent to the coastline to kill demons. If we can't handle it, we'll have to stay in the patrol team or the post station base."

"Only by daring to face the demons and obeying orders will you have the chance to go to the coastline. Otherwise, Instructor Xu Yuan would not let you go up there in a mess to die and disrupt morale."

Large-scale battles are never individual acts; they require mutual cooperation, with attackers attacking, defenders defending, and logistics providing support.

If you want to act alone, you'll need exceptional individual skills. As a vanguard mobile team, you'll move through various stages and deal with troublesome demons.

This requires a high level of comprehensive personal ability; one must be able to assess the situation and maintain a positive mindset in order to achieve the best results.

Wang Teng's words made them realize that this was what it meant to have no action plan from the beginning.

It's likely that Wei Ming had already considered this point, since this was a battle alongside military mages, not a group venturing into the wilderness to hunt monsters.

The four scions of prominent families looked at Wang Teng with admiration, impressed that he could make such a rational analysis under such circumstances.

It instantly dispelled the fog of confusion in their minds, revealing a bright and clear picture before them.

How they act, how they behave, and what results they want are all up to them to choose.

If you want to get a reward, then you need to be brave and proactive in taking on tasks and accepting assignments.

If you don't want the reward, then just get by and you'll be assigned to the inspection team or logistics work, then you won't have to face the sirens.

Bai Hao, who is in charge of lightning magic, the two summoners Qian Fu and Li Xiaowei, and Dongfang Yao, who is in charge of fire magic, are all eager to fight.

As a combat-oriented mage, a wild heart is naturally indispensable. The Pastoral Tree, with its plant-based control abilities, will likely be the core of the team later on.

Yao Wen, an Earth-type defender, is playing a support role, while Bai Yu, a Healer, is likely part of the logistics arrangements at the post station base.

In the inspection team, the two summoners are more popular, after all, four legs are always faster than two legs, and they are also more sensitive to demons.

They can even fight demons, or act as a meat shield to withstand attacks if they can't defeat them.

Li Xiaowei's Rock Demon was able to fight a positional battle without being afraid of those tentacle-like thorn demons, which was a huge advantage.
