Lu Zhenghe was sitting beside Mu Ningxue. He was not bewitched, but he was tired of dealing with Liao Mingxuan and Xu Dalong.
He wanted to talk to Mu Ningxue, but when he saw how quiet she was, he had no idea how to break the silence.
He raised his head, trying to think of a way to break through. Suddenly, a pair of snow-white wings appeared on the horizon. The wings were approaching in an orderly manner. The faint light from the feathers illuminated the gloomy sky.
Lu Zhenghe was overjoyed. He quickly pretended that he did not see anything.
Those white feathers did not fly directly into the Desolation City. Instead, they landed at a certain place.
The place where they had landed was not too far away. It would not take them long to reach the area. Lu Zhenghe purposely scanned his surroundings, looking for Mo Fan.
Coincidentally, Mo Fan, Mu Nujiao, Bai Tingting, Zhao Manyan, and the others were walking toward them. Mo Fan was the first to speak, "None of us are in the mood to investigate any further. Let's go back."
"We still haven't found Ming Cong," Mu Ningxue raised her head and said.
"There's no need to look for him. Liao Mingxuan accidentally killed him," Xu Dalong suddenly blurted out.
Liao Mingxuan broke out in cold sweat. He pointed at Xu Dalong and said, "Don't you dare slander me!"
"So what if he's dead? We're all bewitched anyway. It's either you die or I die," Mo Fan added.
"Liao Mingxuan, did you kill him?" Mu Ningxue asked.
"I... I didn't do it on purpose. I couldn't control myself..." Liao Mingxuan was on the verge of breaking down. He dug his hands into his hair, as if he was trying to pry open his skull.
He and Ming Cong were good friends. Who would have thought that he would kill him with his own hands? Even his corpse was beyond recognition.
"In that case, let's pack up and head back." Mu Ningxue did not ask any more questions and spoke as the team leader.
After experiencing such a thing, no one had the courage to continue the exploration. This Barren City was much more terrifying than everyone had imagined. Only God knew how many people would be able to survive after completing the exploration.
Now, everyone was completely exhausted. Most importantly, they were already scared.
The appearance of the Pseudomorphing Demon had already left everyone in fear. Now, the Bewitching Magic Spider was causing everyone to kill each other. Liao Mingxuan had killed Ming Cong. Even though Liao Mingxuan was the one who had been bewitched the most, no one could accept this terrifying fact.
…
After packing up, everyone went to check on Ming Cong's corpse. In the end, they decided to bury him in the ground and cast an Earth Spell on him to build a sturdy grave, so the demon beasts wouldn't dig up his corpse and eat it.
The heavily injured Song Xia had already woken up. Her abdomen was still wrapped in gauze, and she looked very haggard.
She was already very lucky to be able to survive. Song Xia did not expect anything else, and prepared to head back with the others.
Zheng Bingxiao's condition was very bad, too. Bai Tingting's energy had already dried up. It was hard to say if Zheng Bingxiao could be saved.
When they first arrived, this group of people was still very dignified, and they looked as if they could flatten this small Desolate City. Who would have thought that after a few surveys, they would be reduced to a group of defeated soldiers? The cruelty of the Demonic Beasts' Land could be said to have made them thoroughly understand.
So what if they were the elites of the Pearl Institute? So what if they were the most outstanding magic students of the Imperial College? In the extremely dangerous wilderness, they could not even guarantee their survival.
No matter how famous they were in the school, how strong they were in front of their classmates, how they listened to their seniors talking about the outside world, they realized that it was completely useless in the city. Those who were supposed to die would still die, and those who were supposed to be injured would still be injured.
They were not willing to accept this. As the most outstanding magic students in the country, they all had a sense of pride in their hearts. However, they could only swallow it down and drag their tired bodies back.
The training this time was indeed too difficult.
…
Gradually, the group walked out of the city.
The sky had already turned completely white. The chirping of birds could be heard from the forest outside the city. It sounded very pleasant, as if it had slightly diluted the deathly atmosphere in the city.
At a glance, it was still the same train tracks that were covered in moss and weeds. It passed through the forest and extended into the distance, leading to the city that was now a paradise for everyone.
Everyone was in a hurry to return to a place with people, to a warm house.
Just as the group was about to follow the train tracks, a group of figures suddenly appeared from the forest. They were wearing the same uniform, and the style was somewhat similar to the Battlemages. However, the color was very different.
There were about twenty to thirty people in this group, and each of them had a snow-white giant eagle beside them. The giant eagles had plump chests, sharp eyes, and their wings were hanging down, almost touching the ground. If they were to spread out, they would be at least two meters long!
Mofan had naturally seen these Heavenly Eagles before. They were Demon Beasts that the Battlemages had tamed.
It was said that only powerful Psychic Magicians were able to tame Demon Beasts. Although they could not help in battle, they were very suitable as transportation.
"Battlemages? Are they here to save us? "Seeing the appearance of the Battlemages, Zhao Mingyue and Jingjing immediately became excited.
It was great to see living people here.
"Their uniforms are a little strange," Zhao Manyan said.
"They should be here to save us. That's great. Zheng Bingxiao can be saved, "Peng Liang said happily.
Lu Zhenghe stood there, but his gaze was evasive.
A group of Battlemages walked toward the group. The leader of the group was a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, holding a pipe between his thick lips.
The man was wearing an army green windbreaker. His eyes under his thick eyebrows scanned the group of trainees, and finally landed on Lu Zhenghe.
Lu Zhenghe glanced in Mo Fan's direction, as if he was hinting at the man in the military coat with the pipe.
Commander Lu Nian nodded slightly. He slowly raised his right hand and said to the group of Battlemages behind him, "Kill all unrelated people."
Lu Nian said this sentence casually, as if he was saying to take these people away.
However, his order was to kill!
Lu Zhenghe was stunned when he heard the order to kill. He quickly put on a stiff smile and said, "Big brother, are you mistaken? They're all students from Mingzhu and the Imperial Capital who came with me for training."
"That's why I want to kill them. I don't want anyone to know about this." Lu Nian said calmly. From his attitude of not blinking when he gave the order to kill, it was clear how many people had died in his hands!
Behind Lu Nian, a murderous aura instantly filled the air. It came from the twenty Battlemages. These people were all military officers, and their strength was at least at the Intermediate level. When their gazes locked onto the group of trainees, it was like a pack of wolves locking onto a group of sheep.
The atmosphere completely changed!
Zhao Mingyue and Jingjing were just about to go up and talk to the Battlemages who had come to help when a few ice chains suddenly appeared under their feet!
These chains directly penetrated the two women's bodies when they were unprepared, and the silver-white ice chains instantly turned into bright red chains … ….
The ice chains penetrated the two girls, turning them into a pool of blood.
The two girls who were still full of youthfulness a moment ago had turned into two corpses on the ice chains …
How shocking was this? No one dared to believe what was happening before their eyes!!!
