"Don't worry, the Aorus Sacred Institute has repaired all the hills. Even though the Andes Mountains are only a hundred kilometers away, they are still keeping an eye on the demon creatures," Zhu Meng patted Mofan on the shoulder.
They were not as unprepared as before.
The Black Vatican's target seemed to be Banlo City, which was going to become the economic capital of the Andes Federation.
The open tournament was organized by the government of Banlo City and the Aorus Sacred Institute. The tournament was not just a show by the Aorus Sacred Institute. Teams from all over South America would be participating too.
The nine factions of the Aorus Sacred Institute were just a warm-up for the tournament.
The scale of the tournament was second only to the World College Tournament. It was the most important tournament in the Americas, and the tournament was going to start in Banlo City …
"Yeah, Half-Ridge Mountain City is the closest city to the Andes Mountains. Even if an army of demon creatures is coming, Half-Ridge Mountain City will be the first line of defense. Banlo City might have a lot of people, but it won't take long for them to evacuate when the first line of defense is in place," Mubai comforted himself.
Banlo City was built at a transportation hub. It was surrounded by spacious roads.
Even if something happened to the Andes Mountains, the city would not be surrounded by demon creatures.
Besides, the outpost was protected by the Aorus Sacred Institute's hills. Half-Ridge Mountain City was the first line of defense, and the Scorching River was the second line of defense. They were not worried even if a powerful horde of demon creatures showed up.
Mofan nodded.
However, he was still worried.
Banlo City was a safe place to stay.
It did not rely on the territory of the demon creatures. There were no special species like the undead nearby, either. Even if the demon creatures of the Andes Mountains came, they could quickly evacuate by sea, water, or plains. Meanwhile, a few important military cities were not too far away from them. Reinforcements would arrive very quickly.
Bo City was located in the Nanling Mountains.
The Ancient Capital was built in the land of the undead.
Was it really possible for Salan to carry out her plan in Banlo City?
This heavy rain was really just an accidental rain cloud that drifted over from the Pacific Ocean.
There was no conspiracy, and no lives were lost?
"What's the situation with the Hillmen? Is there any news from the mounds?" Mofan was still worried. He asked Green, the Elemental Chief.
Green also patted Mofan, indicating that there was no need for him to be so tense.
"Don't worry. Everything is normal on the hill. We haven't found any abnormal movements," Green said.
"It's actually quite easy to detect demon creatures when they are in groups, as long as our outposts are not paralyzed. So, just focus on the competition today. It's the most important competition before the Andes Federation is established. I believe every Mage who performs well will become a celebrity in the Andes Federation," the principal said calmly.
…
After the opening ceremony, it was time for the students of Brianca and Prince Beny's factions to face off against one another.
Nine students against nine students, it was a feast for the eyes of the audience.
When the duel began, the square and roads outside the Banlo Stage were crowded with people who were unable to enter the stage.
Some of them were sitting on the ground, while others were standing on their cars.
The stage was not stacked on top of one another. It was possible to see some of the scenes through the transparent barrier and the glass of the buildings.
The rain poured down on the stage. The passionate crowd did not even bother to bring their umbrellas or raincoats. They simply cheered in the rain.
A group of people further away were holding signs with words written all over them.
They seemed to be venting their dissatisfaction by protesting against the new government when their friends from different countries arrived.
At the same time, this group of people was being watched by the city's armed forces.
They could protest, but they were not allowed to cause any trouble. They were not allowed to affect the tourists from different countries in South America.
They could not allow these people to ruin the reputation of the Andes Federation!
"If you have so much money to host the competition, why didn't you give us a house to shelter us from the rain? You forced us to leave our homes and lied to us that the sea monsters are going to devour the cities and villages to the west of the Andes Mountains! "
"You put us in a city that is like a slave labor system. We do the dirty work just to support you bastards who drink red wine in the big city and sit on the high seats to watch the game!"
"Give us back our homes!"
"Give us back our homes!"
The crowd was not huge. There were only around two or three hundred people.
It was only a small number compared to the crowd of gamblers and spectators who were only focused on the competition.
However, their voices were louder than those of the supporters of the competition.
Mofan could hear the angry cries of the crowd from the stage.
Mofan remembered that he had spoken to Brianca before. The Andes Federation was established in a hurry. Many people's interests were not taken into consideration, such as the orphans.
If a complicated and unstable region like the Andes Federation was invaded by demon creatures, it would be destroyed in an instant.
"Why is the noise getting louder?" someone among the officials of Banlo City expressed his dissatisfaction.
"We can stop them from entering the venue, but we can't stop them from keeping their mouths shut. After all, we have done something wrong too."
"What do you mean by that?"
"Nothing, let's watch the competition."
…
On the stage, a Savage Bear from First Prince Beny's team charged into the enemy's formation. It was trying to break the formation of Brianca's team.
Unfortunately, the Savage Bear's level was not very high. It could only harass the enemy's team. A Fire Mage soon inflicted serious damage on the Savage Bear.
"How dare you bite me? Go to hell!" the Fire Mage snapped angrily when he saw the wound on his arm.
The flames suddenly rose to a higher level. A ball of Earth Altar Fire surrounded the summoned beast, and the flames engulfed its body.
The smell of burning flesh filled the air. The Savage Bear Beast struggled to break free from the flames, but it was stopped by the Fire Magician.
"What are you doing?" a female student beside him glared at him.
"I'm burning it to death," the Fire Mage replied.
"That's her Contracted Beast. Can't you just let it go? It can't fight back anymore!" the female student yelled.
"It shouldn't have bitten me!"
The Savage Bear did not manage to walk out of the flames alive. The pain of the Contracted Beast was transmitted to the Summoner in Prince Beny's camp.
The Summoner stood there with a blank face.
He couldn't believe that his contracted beast had been burned alive by the other party.
