Mo Fan was going to say something, but when he saw their reaction, he knew they would not believe he was the commander even if he talked until his mouth was dry.
He followed them to the library of Jimei University. The library was quite well-built, and it happened to be on a small hill. The seawater did not even reach the first floor of the library. When he climbed to the top of the library, he could see the mouth of the strait through the glass of the windows.
Looking from afar, one could see a sea demon swimming in the gray sea water every ten meters or so, not including those that were submerged in the water.
Since the sea monsters were coming from all directions to the narrow entrance of the strait, the sea monsters were densely packed at the entrance of the strait, like a subway station in a city during rush hour.
The sea monsters would turn south after a kilometer at the entrance of the strait and enter the island from Gaoqi Airport, which was opposite Mo Fan's location. As the student had mentioned, Jimei University happened to be behind the entrance of the strait. If they attacked the sea monsters from here, it was possible to inflict serious casualties on the sea monsters!
"Is that all we have?" the Director of the Water School asked with a frown.
"There are more students gathering here, but not many of them are actually strong enough to fight," Biling said.
"If we are going to attack the sea monsters from here, our spells will have to fly across the water for around a kilometer and a half. Unless the sea monsters are purposely approaching us, most spells won't be able to reach that distance," a teacher with the Wind Element said.
"Yeah, even teachers like us won't be able to reach the sea monsters at such a distance, let alone the students."
While the teachers were discussing how to deal with the situation, more and more students arrived at the library one after another.
Mo Fan roughly estimated that there were around fifty people in each of the major Elemental Elements, and around a hundred people in the rest of the Elements. There were around four hundred people in total, and they were all Intermediate Mages.
If the Intermediate Mages could form a team and attack the sea monsters with the same spell, they could still inflict serious damage to the sea monsters. With their help, they might be able to reduce the number of sea monsters as soon as they set foot in the strait.
However, there was still a problem: the range of their spells.
A normal Fiery Fist was already considered a skill with a relatively long range. The maximum range it could reach was around 200 meters. The further the range, the lower the damage.
The lightning element's Thunderbolt had a very short attack range. This was because a mage needed to draw the lightning element to a point that they could control. Only then could they draw out the lightning …
Wind Magic would have a much longer range, but even if multiple Wind Magic spells were stacked together to form a huge wind disc, it was already quite impressive that it could blow a kilometer away in this weather!
Given the height and topography of the library, if the spell flew in a parabola toward the strait, it would be able to extend the distance, but that would not solve the fundamental problem.
"Compress the space. If there's a Space Mage here, he can compress the space in the path of our magic. That way, our magic attacks will land on the sea monsters in the strait," Biling suggested.
"Miss Biling, I've never heard of Space Magic being used like that," the head of the Water School said to Yongchuan.
When Mofan heard this theory, he was also dumbfounded.
Compressing the space to shorten the distance of the spells, what a brilliant idea …
Either way, Mofan had no idea how to compress the space. He could compress the space, but there were still many problems with it.
"Does anyone know how to do that?" Mofan asked.
"Leave it to me," an old Mage with a slightly aged appearance came up to them.
The old Mage had a white beard and was wearing a plain outfit. A few other Mages in similar outfits followed behind him. They had a familiar aura to them. Mofan could tell that they were Space Mages!
Mofan's eyes glittered when he saw the Mages.
"Young man, I believe the president has assigned you to be our commander, right?" The old Mage stopped in front of Mofan when he saw him.
"That's me," Mofan nodded.
"I'm impressed by your bravery in dealing with Calamity Beast No. 1 and Calamity Beast No. 2. I'm a lecturer with the Space Element from Jimei Dimensional Academy, Lin Du. The people behind me are my graduate students. You can consider them members of Jimei University's Space Element," Lin Du said.
"Oh, I've heard a lot about you," Mofan had no idea who the man was, but he still greeted him courteously.
Yongchuan, Biling, the lecturer of the Wind School, and the rest of the students immediately looked at Mofan in astonishment.
Why would the president assign someone who looked no different from a student to be their commander?
"You're the commander?" Deng Yongchuan harrumphed coldly.
"That's me," Mofan replied.
"Judging from your age, I can't believe you're able to command us. Maybe it's good enough that you're not hindering us," Deng Yongchuan said.
"The president of Donghai is in charge of the battle. He must be under a lot of pressure to send someone like him here. Lecturer Lin Du, we'll listen to you, "the student representative said.
Lin Du frowned. He did not expect these people to have such strong opinions about Mofan being their commander. He was about to scold them when he suddenly sensed a powerful aura bursting out of the young man's body. It felt like the whole library was shrouded in a dangerous lightning aura. The violent Lightning Magic lingering in the air made the people hold their breaths.
Lin Du immediately looked at Mofan and saw Mofan emitting lightning bolts. The crowd was dumbfounded by his violent aura!
"I don't have time to waste on you. If you don't think I'm qualified to command you, I'll take care of the sea monsters on my own. You can keep wasting your time arguing about who's in charge!" Mofan was infuriated.
He was seriously speechless at these arrogant idiots. Lin Du had already said he was the commander, yet they still dared to question him. Mofan had no choice but to use his Domain to deal with the sea monsters!
"Young man, calm down, they just didn't expect you to be a Super Lightning Mage at such a young age … directors, teachers, this young man's strength and bravery are extraordinary. He was the one who sealed the Number One Calamity Beast's bone whips with a Super Lightning Spell!" Lin Du said.
Lin Du was a Super Mage too. He was present at the battle and witnessed Mofan sealing the bone whips with the Seal of the Nine Laws!
