Mofan used both his hands. Purple lightning and crimson flames intertwined with one another.
He was now able to cast a Fire Burst right after completing a Lightning Strike. With the strength of the fourth-tier spell, Mofan was able to kill the Servant-class undead instantly!
"Damn it, what did I tell you before? Why are you panicking!" Mofan jumped up to a villager whose leg had been bitten off and yelled furiously.
Mofan crouched down and carried the villager whose lower body was covered in blood. The young man's face was covered in snot and tears from the pain. His body was twitching in pain.
"Hang in there, the Healer will heal your leg when we reach the city!" said Mofan impatiently.
Mofan was annoyed too. As a matter of fact, the undead that had ambushed them were not too strong. He could easily eliminate them all on his own. The villagers were being overly paranoid, running out of Mofan's protection even though they were not ambushed, resulting in a huge number of deaths.
Even though he was used to witnessing life and death, he was still displeased when he saw so many innocent villagers losing their lives all of a sudden.
Mofan vented his frustration on the undead that had attacked him in broad daylight. His Fire Burst was more than enough to blast the Servant-class undead into pieces. Mofan even cast an Intermediate Lightning Spell to deal with them.
Thunderous Yakshas descended from the sky. The undead that were trying to slaughter the villagers were torn into pieces by Mofan's lightning claws, turning into a mist of blood.
After the lightning dissipated, Liu Ru landed in front of Mofan with two villagers in her arms.
She scanned the surroundings and said to Mofan, "I've only saved these two. The kids are fine."
Mo Fan glanced at the three injured villagers beside him. They were carrying a young man whose legs had been bitten off on their backs.
Mofan glanced at the corpses scattered across the place and let out a sigh, "Let's go, we've tried our best."
Mofan and Liu Ru left the few villagers they had saved in Su Xiaoluo's care. Su Xiaoluo had brought along some medicine that could save their lives.
Everyone sat in a circle, and no one spoke. The atmosphere suddenly became extremely solemn. A few frightened children cried softly. After all, those who died were their uncles and aunts.
Liu Ru sat next to Mofan and gave him a gentle nudge. She whispered, "I met an undead teenager just now."
Mofan lifted his gaze and signaled for Liu Ru to continue.
Liu Ru then told him about her encounter with the undead teenager. Mofan's expression turned serious, and he subconsciously glanced at Xie Sang, the village chief not far away.
For some reason, he had a feeling that this incident had something to do with the village chief who was hiding something. He had never heard of an undead attacking people in broad daylight.
"Should we investigate it?" Liu Ru asked.
"There's nothing to investigate. Let's send these villagers to the Ancient Capital. They can do whatever they want!" Mofan was not fond of meddling in other people's business.
"Mm, it shouldn't be too dangerous to send them to the Ancient Capital." Liu Ru nodded.
…
Some time later, the undead stopped showing up. Mofan glanced at the sky and decided that they could not afford to waste any more time here.
The undead could come out and attack people in broad daylight. Hiding in the Lithosphere was not a long-term solution. They had to reach the Ancient Capital before the sky turned dark. Who knew if a huge batch of undead would show up at night!
The group continued on their journey. This time, Mo Fan had the urge to tie the villagers up with chains, just so they would not run away in a panic if something happened again.
After the previous incident, everyone was quite impressed by Mofan's strength. They were not blind, and the fact that Mofan was able to kill an undead with a single spell made them feel slightly relieved.
As they continued on their journey, the sky gradually darkened. Luckily, the magnificent city walls shrouded in the afternoon clouds gradually appeared in front of the group.
As it was still daytime, there were still some Battlemages patrolling the outer walls. The group let out relieved sighs when they saw the villagers were still alive. They quickened their pace and hid in the city.
The group arrived at the city gate. A group of Magicians in military uniforms were standing guard.
"Are you from Hua Village?" The Battlemage looked at them suspiciously.
"Yes, yes, I'm the village chief." Chief Xie Sang immediately took out a seal. It was obvious that the seal represented his identity as the chief of the village.
"Everyone in the city has been talking about you villagers recently," said a young guard.
"Talking about us? Why?" Hong Jun looked at them with a confused face.
The guard captain curled his lips and took a copy of today's morning paper to show the village chief.
The village chief picked it up and immediately saw a line of eye-catching headlines!
"Six villages in the vicinity of Xianchi were robbed by the undead. There were only a few survivors!"
The village chief was dumbfounded. He initially thought Hua Village was the only village that was attacked by the undead. He did not expect the other villages to be wiped out. Due to the lack of information, he would not have known if he had not come to the Ancient Capital.
However, the village chief's expression became even more strange after hearing the news, as if there was something that he could not understand.
"We'll be going then. You can make your own arrangements." Mofan was even more suspicious of the village chief. He had no intention of getting involved in the mess.
"Thank you, I didn't expect you to be such a strong Magician at the same age as our Hong Jun," said a middle-aged woman to Mofan excitedly.
"Without you, we might have ended up like the other villages. Thank you sincerely," Su Xiaoluo collected her thoughts after hearing the news about the other villages being wiped out. She quickly thanked Mofan and Liu Ru.
Mofan was about to leave, but he soon had a problem.
Zhang Xiaohou only knew Su Xiaoluo. Initially, Mofan was planning to bring him away and send him to Xinxia for treatment. However, the idiot insisted on staying by Su Xiaoluo's side, like an unreasonable child.
Mofan had no idea what to do with Zhang Xiaohou, who had lost his memory. In the end, he said helplessly, "I'll inform the military first. You can keep this idiot with you for now."
Since they had arrived at the Ancient Capital, nothing would happen to Zhang Xiaohou. It was fine for him to stay by Su Xiaoluo's side, since she could treat his illness.
The people of Hua Village had left with Hong Jun. It was likely that the Magic Association would arrange accommodation for the remaining villagers, too. It was not something that Mofan needed to worry about.
…
Mofan contacted Zhang Xiaohou's instructor, Fei Jiao. However, he was told that Fei Jiao was on a mission outside, and would only be back in a day.
Mofan was still worried that he would not be able to treat Zhang Xiaohou's illness and hand him over to the military. He decided to stay in the Ancient Capital for a few more days, and return to the place after he was done with his business.
"Where are we going?" Liu Ru followed Mofan closely. She seemed to be very curious about everything in the Ancient Capital, as she kept looking around.
"To meet my fellow villagers," said Mofan.
"You even have people here?" asked Liu Ru.
"I bet there are people from Bo City in a few cities."
