A chat group for a certain tower warlock

“Well, you’re pretty good!” Mephistopheles nodded with a smile, then his expression suddenly changed, and he pointed his right hand fiercely at Yarman. “Faust, kill him!”

"Bong!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than a crossbow bolt imbued with purple Originium Arts flew rapidly toward him.

"Big guy!"

"What a loud crossbow bolt! Pretty impressive!" Yarman nodded affirmatively, gently raising his left hand to catch the crossbow bolt that flew towards him, instantly shattering the Originium Arts on it.

Holding the crossbow bolts in his hand, Yarman examined them briefly. He looked at the stunned Mephistopheles and said, "I must say, Mr. Mephistopheles, your friend's crossbow bolts are quite impressive, but..."

Suddenly, Yarman raised the crossbow bolt in his hand and hurled it fiercely at Mephisto. Instantly, a sonic boom exploded in the air. "An eye for an eye! Let's see how good my archery is!"

"Bong!"

"Bah!"

Mephisto fell to the ground in a sorry state, blood gushing from his right hand. Just as Yarman threw the crossbow bolt, a Reunion member next to him pushed him aside, and the bolt only tore off a piece of muscle from his right hand.

The Reunion Movement members who pushed him away were pierced through by the crossbow bolts, and the Reunion Movement members standing behind him were not spared either. They were easily pierced by the crossbow bolts and strung together, like red hawthorns covered in syrup.

"Hey! You're still alive!" Yarman looked at Mephistopheles, who was lying on the ground and slowly struggling to get up, with some surprise. "I thought you would turn into a candied hawthorn like them."

“You…” Mephisto covered his right hand with his left hand, the white Originium Arts on his hand surging continuously, the wound stopping bleeding and regenerating at an astonishing speed.

"Your Originium Arts are quite interesting!" Yarman exclaimed in amazement, looking at him. "I've traveled all over the world for so many years, and this is the first time I've seen a medical-type Originium Arts like yours. It's fascinating!"

"You...attack!"

With Mephisto's enraged command, the Reunion Movement members frantically surrounded the group's location, attacking the Rhodes Island members and Yarman with various weapons.

“My personal suggestion is that you attack them.” Yarman took out his staff and gently pointed forward. A pale green aura of magic appeared beside him. The Reunion Movement members who rushed up fell to the ground and died the moment they touched the aura.

This modified Avada Kedavra is really useful!

Watching the Reunion Movement members die as soon as they charged in, Yarman nodded in satisfaction. This combat effectiveness was just right; it was exactly what he wanted: a group-oriented, defensive, and instant-kill effect. This was perfect.

Upon witnessing Yarman's strange magic, the Reunion Movement members began to avoid him and attack Rhodes Island from other directions. Gradually, the crowded battlefield actually formed a vacuum zone.

"Boss, keep up with us!"

A voice came from behind. Yarman turned around and saw that the Rhodes Island team, under the Doctor's command, had formed an orderly formation and began to break outwards.

"Alright, everyone, attack is attack, but please make way for me, thank you!"

Yarman manipulated the magical aura and turned to walk towards Rhodes Island. Seeing this, the Reunion Movement members around him crowded towards their companions, fearing that they would be touched by the aura.

Of course, Yarman didn't hold back with those who didn't have time to dodge. You're willing to risk your lives, so why shouldn't I take them? I'll take them one by one!

Stepping over the body of a wanderer, Yarman walked forward calmly. He could feel Faust's crossbow bolt aimed at his head, but he dared not fire.

Following behind Rhodes Island, Yarman arrived at the end of the block. Looking at Mephisto, whose eyes were practically spitting fire with rage, he smiled and gave him a mage's salute.

"Have a good time, Mr. Mephistopheles."

"Ah~~~~ Faust, fire!"

"Bong!"

"Bong!"

Another crossbow bolt flew in, and soon, another bolt flew toward the firing point, directly collapsing the building from which it was fired, burying all the Reunion Movement members who had not yet escaped alive.

"Learn from the mistakes of the past, young Mr. Mephistopheles!"

"Ahhhhhhh, I'm going to kill you!"

Chapter 43: You Don't Need to Know My Name

With a wave of his hand, dispelling the aura of death surrounding him, Yarman walked towards the group. "Alright, I'm here. Let's continue."

"Oh? You're actually awake?" Yarman looked at the Kingslayer struggling on the ground, squatted down, and poked her face with interest. "I thought you were going to sleep for a whole day! After all, you're so weak."

Seeing the Kingslayer lying on the ground, struggling even more fiercely, Yarman struck her again, knocking her unconscious. "Why are you waking up? You're tied up like a dead fish. Just go back to sleep."

He slowly stood up and looked at the worried doctor beside him. "You seem to have something you want to say to me."

“Yes, boss.” The doctor looked up at the sky, which was now a deep orange-red, and said anxiously, “Amiya and the others said that a natural disaster that could cover the entire city of Chernobog is coming soon, and we haven’t been able to get out yet, so we’re afraid we’ll be affected by it.”

"You are the ones who will be affected, I won't."

"What is this...?"

"Natural disasters don't affect me that much." Yarman smiled and shook his head. He casually found a rock to sit on and smiled at the crowd looking at him. "Don't worry about me. You should worry about yourselves. Even if a natural disaster hits me directly, I'll be fine."

"..."×n

“Oh, right, there’s one more thing I need to tell you. The leader of the entire movement, that mother fire dragon, is on her way. I think you should complete your battle preparations as soon as possible.” Yarman frowned slightly, stood up from the rock, and cast a transformation spell on it, turning it into a magnificent wooden upholstered chair.

Sitting there, he smiled and said, "Moreover, if I'm not mistaken, the next thing to happen is that the natural disaster will come first, and then Talulah will arrive. Your preparations should be more than 40% stronger than normal. After the natural disaster, the spellcasters' spellcasting abilities will increase greatly, and the stronger they are, the greater the increase will be."

After saying that, he sat down in the chair without saying anything and looked up at the scenery.

Seeing that Yalman had started looking at the scenery, the doctor began to discuss with the others what to do.

“Talulah is the second strongest member of Reunion. Her magic is terrifying, and it won’t be easy to withstand it. Moreover, there are too many Reunion members here, making it difficult for us to get out,” the Doctor said slowly, looking at everyone.

"This... can he take on all of us by himself?"

"It's not a contest, it's a crushing defeat. All of us combined wouldn't be enough to beat her alone."

"..."×n

"By the way, Doctor, who exactly is that gentleman?" Nearl suddenly leaned closer to the Doctor, pointing slightly at Yarman not far away. "He's incredibly strong!"

"He's probably one of my... friends." The doctor seemed reluctant to discuss the matter with the others, only vaguely stating, "Anyway, he'll definitely help us."

"Speaking of this..." The doctor suddenly had an idea. In the game, they were able to escape this time because the ACE team stayed behind to cover their retreat and the Scout team made a deal with the W mercenaries. But this time it was different. He had an extra super boss.

Why not let the big boss stay behind to hold off Talulah?

Once the thought took hold, it wouldn't leave his mind. The Doctor's mind was now filled with the idea of ​​having Yarman help him hold the line, and then he and the others would take advantage of this time to force their way out.

Ignoring the conversation around him, he stood up, walked up to Yarman, and said to him, "Boss, there's something I'd like you to help me with."

"Help you hold off Talulah?" Yarman directly saw through his thoughts. "Sure, but let me make this clear: I'll only hold him off for twenty minutes. If you can't escape within those twenty minutes, then..."

"I know, I know!" The doctor nodded quickly and walked towards the direction where everyone was. "Alright, no need to discuss it anymore. We're only responsible for breaking through and avoiding the natural disaster. The big boss will take care of Talulah and the others."

“This…” Sitting in his chair, Yarman continued to look at the scenery in the sky. The sky was now covered with dark clouds, and lightning flashed from time to time. All the Originium particles around him were sucked into the sky, clump together in the orange-yellow thunderclouds, grew larger, and prepared to fall.

"That's about enough! There aren't many Originium particles around anymore!" Yarman murmured slowly. There were almost no Originium particles left in the surrounding air; they had all been absorbed.

After about five minutes, the first Originium crystal finally fell from the sky, crashing heavily onto the ground of the mobile city with tremendous force, instantly shattering the originally smooth roadside.

"It's finally starting!... What are you doing squatting next to me?"

Yarman looked at the doctor who was squatting beside him, tugging at the corner of his clothes, and asked him a little strangely.

"No, I just feel that if you dare to sit here, you must have some certainty." Seeing the huge Originium crystal falling, the Doctor moved even closer to Yarman. "So, you must be safe here, and I should be safe here too."

“…You’re such a clever little devil!” Yarman shook his head with a smile. He looked at the group who had already hidden themselves. “Suit yourself. Hide here if you want.”

"Bong!"

Just as the Doctor nodded, a huge Originium crystal slammed down in front of the two of them, and countless broken Originium crystals flew through the air and sprayed out in all directions.

Ah~~~~~~

"Stop yelling! It's just an Originium crystal, what's there to be afraid of!"

With a casual wave of his hand, Yarman instantly dispersed the surrounding Originium crystals. Looking at the frightened Doctor beside him, he said helplessly, "Why don't you go hide in the cave where Amiya and the others are hiding?"

"We can't get through now!" The Doctor looked helplessly at the Originium crystals falling like dumplings in a pot, and at the huge Originium crystal that was blocking his way not far away, and shuddered.

He's only been in this world for less than a day, he doesn't want to start over yet!

"Then just squat there properly, it's okay."

"Boss, how long will this natural disaster last?"

"It should take at least half an hour, it won't be that fast, let's just wait." Yarman calmly watched the Originium crystals falling continuously. He was quite impressed with the black serpent's methods; he had managed to bring forward such a massive natural disaster by so much!

But... can't he see the situation in Ursus? Why does he have to steer it towards war, as if the collapse isn't happening fast enough?

"By the way, boss, what's your name again?"

Yarman glanced at the doctor beside him, smiled, and asked in return, "What's your name?"

"Me? My name is Wutong."

“Perfect timing. Dumbledore is a phoenix, so he should have a lot in common with you.”

"Oh, I see. So... what's your name, sir?"

“Me? You don’t need to know now. Let’s talk about it after you successfully escape.” Yarman looked at him and said calmly, “The chat group is a mutual help group. If you have difficulties, everyone will help you, just like I helped you hold off Talulah and protect Scout. But you also need to have the heart and ability to help others.”

"You should know what I mean by saying this."

"...I understand, boss."

Chapter 44: Talulah

"Alright, stop squatting. The catastrophe is over, but Talulah is coming. Aren't you going to get up and lead your team to escape?" Yarman kicked the doctor squatting next to him and said calmly.

"No, boss, my legs are numb from squatting, I can't get up."

"..."×2

"You always manage to come up with something new." Yarman shook his head helplessly, picked him up from the ground, and then pushed him into Lin Guang's arms as he ran over. "Hold him tight, his legs are numb from squatting. Carry him and run away quickly, so I can get off work soon."

"Dangdang!"

"Ouch!"

"Oh, okay, Doctor?" Nearl caught the Doctor, and upon hearing his cry of pain, she quickly released him. The Doctor's entire head was pressed tightly against the plate armor on Nearl's chest, and the collision between the helmet and the plate armor made a crisp sound.

"My nose... I bumped it!"

"Excuse me, Doctor, but we have to go." Nearl quickly picked up the Doctor and led the Rhodes Island team to retreat out of the mobile city. However, one person voluntarily stayed behind.

Looking at ACE standing not far away, holding a heavy shield and a warhammer, Yarman said with some surprise, "Why don't you leave with them? I can tell you very clearly that in this environment, you can't possibly fight that mother dragon. There's no point in staying."

Hearing his words, ACE smiled, sat down next to Yarman, and looked at him with a smile, saying, "Sir, as an outsider, you have come to cover Rhodes Island's retreat. As a member of Rhodes Island, how can I let you fight against the Reunion Movement's army alone here?"

“Actually… this isn’t much of an army.” Yarman shook his head and looked at ACE, saying, “Most of the Reunion Movement members are infected civilians. They haven’t been trained and don’t have any awareness of legion warfare. They’re just a rabble. And the only two who could be considered a large army aren’t here right now.”

"Only two can be considered part of the army? What?"

“The Patriots Division and Frostnova Division of the Reunion Movement.” Yarman glanced at him and said calmly, “They were originally guerrillas in the Ursus Tundra, and later joined the Reunion Movement. Before their defection, the Patriots Division was the regular army of Ursus, and fought for Ursus in battles across the country.”

"This……"

“My personal advice is that if you’re not confident, don’t get involved in this.” Yarman looked at the stunned ACE and advised, “Although I know your ideology, I personally believe that you are not yet capable of confronting the Ursus regular army, especially one led by a great warrior.”

As a veteran who has lived since the Tower of Babel era, ACE naturally knows the terror of the Ursus regular army. Rhodes Island is no longer as powerful as it once was, and it is definitely no match for them.

Sitting in his chair, Yarman sighed, "But I know your style. You know there are tigers in the mountains, yet you still go into the tiger's den. I hope your doctor can find a clear path for you."

"I think he can definitely do it!" ACE's tone suddenly became incredibly firm, as if he had already witnessed Rhodes Island's victory, a firmness that seemed strange to others.

"I hope so." Yarman remained noncommittal about ACE's words. If it were the original doctor, it might be possible, but with this heart transplant, he really didn't know what would happen.

Just as the two were talking, Talulah finally arrived. This last offspring of Drak made her appearance with boundless power. Drak's unique fire-type Originium Arts were fully displayed on her, and the air around her was distorted by the high temperature.

Looking at the woman whose mere appearance raised the average temperature of the entire neighborhood by at least one notch, Yarman suddenly turned to ACE and asked, "What do you think her clothes are made of?"

"what?"

"Why weren't her clothes burned by her Originium Arts?" Yarman stroked his chin, puzzled. "At such high temperatures, I can't think of any heat-resistant material that could withstand it. Do they have some new technology?"

"This... I don't know either."

“It’s really baffling.” Yarman adjusted the crown on his head and asked curiously, “Tell me, when she goes to the battlefield wearing such a gorgeous dress, isn’t it a hassle to wash it when she gets back? Or does she not wash it at all? I suddenly have an idea.”

"For someone like her, there's no need to wait for wet clothes to dry; you can completely melt them with your body heat!"

“Sir, I think we should be more serious,” ACE couldn’t help but say to him, who was full of enthusiasm. The temperature in the neighborhood had reached an unbearable level, and he could even feel the scalding heat of the warhammer and heavy shield in his hands.

Won't those Reunion Movement members get heated? Why are they all so close together?

"You are Rhodes Island?"

Looking at the two people opposite her, Talulah finally spoke, "Why, there are only two of you?"

“Because everyone else ran away,” Yarman said bluntly, smiling at Talulah. “You’re too late. Our main force has already escaped. The two of us stayed behind to cover the retreat!”
