While Mofan was fighting Vani and Saks, he had used a Rebellious Shadow to sneak into the fortress and track down Gangma. Unfortunately, Gangma was too fast, so the Rebellious Shadow did not manage to catch up to him.
Mofan could only follow the traces of the Dark Material that had penetrated his body. The Dark Material would continue to spread. Anything that came into contact with magic, including communication devices, would be infected by the Dark Material. Gangma was now covered in a faint layer of the Dark Material. Mofan was barely able to follow the trail of the Dark Material!
The command center was around four kilometers away from the frontline. Mofan was running in the dark. He was able to cast Fleeing Shadow freely, so he was not too slow. After flying for around ten minutes on the Shadow Bird, Mofan could already hear the deafening cries of battle.
Mofan was no stranger to the sounds. It was the same on every battlefield. The roars of magic, the explosions of energy, the roars of demon creatures, and the cries of agony …
After passing through the reserve trenches, the city of Cairo, which was made entirely of soil and sand, appeared in front of them. Every continent had many famous fortresses. The East Sea Fortress that Mofan had visited in Tokyo was one of the most frequent fortresses in Asia. In Africa, the scale of the fortress in Cairo was even bigger. The war between humans and the undead had never stopped for thousands of years. Similar to the black soil near the Ancient Capital, there were tombs, underground palaces, and mausoleums everywhere. There were also terrifying creatures that were unwilling to leave this world even though they were already dead.
"That guy has entered the fortress, damn it!" Mofan grumbled in dissatisfaction when he glanced at the fortress.
The fortress was surrounded by a large number of Egyptian soldiers. Mofan had no chance of taking on so many Egyptian soldiers on his own …
However, Mofan was not willing to let Gangma escape just like that.
"Huh? He's using magic?" Mofan saw a Dark Fly flying toward him from the distance.
The Dark Fly was the feedback of the Dark Material. Gangma seemed to have underestimated Mofan's tracking ability. He did not ask a Light Mage to purify his body before using magic and communication devices!
As a result, not only did the Dark Material not dissipate, it continued to spread in his body.
Even though it was slow to spread, once Mo Fan accumulated enough Dark Material, he could trigger the Dark Wither when Gangma was asleep and kill Leng Qing without alerting anyone, just like how Bei Jiang had done!
Mofan had the same ability, but the conditions were a little stricter. One of them was that he had to sacrifice a Commander-level Soul Essence.
A Commander-level Soul Soul Essence was extremely valuable. If Mofan could sacrifice it, he would be able to summon another Commander-level Summoned Beast to help him in a fight!
"Damn it, if I don't kill him, I don't know how many girls he's going to harm. I can still collect Commander-level Soul Essences, but Gangma has to die!" Mofan clenched his teeth. He had made up his mind to kill Gangma!
Gangma had escaped to the crowded fortress, but it was also the time when he had let his guard down. Bei Jiang was able to kill someone from a thousand miles away. Mofan was eager to try it too!
"I'll sneak into the fortress first and spread the Dark Material as much as I can," Mofan told himself.
The fortress was currently fending off the undead army. No one would pay any attention to Mofan, who was only a Shadow Mage.
If he stumbled into an old general with a high cultivation, Mofan still had the Dark Noble Mantle with him. Mofan decided to give it a try!
…
Entering War City from the rear, Yang Kai saw that the entire city was made of sand, with some of the more important buildings being made of solid rock. These military buildings were generally built on top of the sand.
The sand in War City was rugged and complex, and the terrain was strange. There were huge undulating sand dunes, winding mountain barriers, and many interconnected sand houses. The entire Sand City was like a huge maze made of thick sand and hard earth. Mages fighting the Undead in such a terrain would have a great advantage.
The size of the East Maritime Fortress in Tokyo was less than a fifth of the size of the fortress in Cairo, Egypt. It was quite convenient for a Shadow Mage like Mo Fan to move around freely. Even if he stumbled into some patrolling Battlemages, he could easily hide among the buildings.
Most of the Mages in Egypt were Necromancers. It was already midnight, and the undead creatures that the Necromancers Summoned were fighting the undead of Khafre. The frontline was in a complete mess. Mofan looked into the distance and saw a huge crowd of undead moving around. Their blood was like a lake.
The army of Khafre was huge. When Mofan glided across the tall buildings, he could see more undead moving toward the battlefield like a black sea further away.
There was an endless stream of undead. Even if the undead mages had summoned creatures to form a wall of flesh, it was only a matter of time before it collapsed. The rain of magic spells rained down on the undead, but the undead were still able to stagger back to their feet with broken limbs.
On top of that, the army of snakes and scorpions was the biggest headache for the Cairo army. They were constantly harassing and attacking the Mages on both sides of the battlefield, inflicting great casualties to the Egyptian army.
"Rumble rumble rumble rumble!"
Mofan had just landed on a building made of solid soil when he saw a huge black scorpion ramming its body into the building four floors below. The building collapsed instantly.
There were some Hunters and members of the Magic Association on the building. A Huntress in her thirties was giving out orders in Egyptian. Mo Fan could not understand what she was saying.
"Which team are you from? Why aren't you running away? Do you have a death wish!? "the Huntress snapped angrily when she saw Mofan lingering nearby.
Mofan landed on the ground and dodged the collapsed buildings. Unfortunately, the huge black scorpion had set its eyes on him. It moved its legs and made a terrifying sound like a harvester!
The Huntress realized that Mofan was not an Egyptian. She immediately switched to English and yelled at Mofan, "Find a place to hide, you idiot!"
Mofan remained still. The collapsed buildings above him were falling heavily. They were only around six meters away from Mofan. In front of him, the black scorpion was very close. The other Hunters who were hiding nearby sighed.
Mofan's eyes glittered as he emitted a silver glow. The debris falling from the buildings above him was eerily encapsulated by a silver glow. They all stopped moving in the air. Not even a speck of dust fell from the sky.
"Go!"
Mofan uttered coldly. The debris that was about to land on Mofan immediately flew at the huge black scorpion at a greater speed!
The scorpion's skin was thick and tough. The Hunters had failed to inflict any damage to it after casting a few Intermediate Spells. However, Mo Fan managed to smash the scorpion flat with the huge lump of earth that had been sped up. Its flesh and blood splattered across the ground.
"A … a Space Mage!" The Huntress and her companions were dumbfounded.
The huge black scorpion that they had failed to take out after putting in so much effort had been taken out by the young man with ease!
"Excuse me, who's the commander of the battle?" Mofan looked at the dumbfounded Hunters with a friendly smile.
As a matter of fact, the Lightning Element was already considered a very powerful Element in society. A Space Element like the Lightning Element would definitely shock the average Magician out there.
The main reason was that Mo Fan's social circle was filled with geniuses, elites, and experts. The people he met in the places he visited were all from the upper echelons of the society. As such, the Space Element, Lightning Element, and Summoning Element were nothing special to him.
"It's General Ethan," the Huntress replied after a slight pause.
"Can you tell me more about him while you're treating your wounds?" Mofan said.
"Not a problem, I'm Jenny." The Huntress' attitude was a lot friendlier than before. She purposely glanced at Mofan from head to toe.
Jenny was a Hunter. Her squad consisted of seven people, each with some injuries. The poison was still spreading from their wounds. It was supposed to be a tough fight against the black scorpion, but Mo Fan's appearance had given them a chance to escape.
As a matter of fact, apart from the army, the members of various factions would form their own squads in the fortress. Mofan did not have to disguise himself on purpose. No one would pay any attention to his Asian face, as long as he did not set foot in the forbidden area.
There were countless squads like Jenny's in Cairo. Some of them were recruited to help the army, while others had volunteered.
