Fei Jiao completely ignored Jiang Li, who was trying to please him. He went straight up to Mofan.
"I'm the one who contacted you. Zhang Xiaohou is my student," Fei Jiao wore a smile. It was obvious that he had received the message from Mofan.
"Oh, oh, I'm sorry, I didn't recognize your voice," Mofan smiled awkwardly.
Mofan had contacted Fei Jiao over the phone. To his surprise, the man with the old voice was quite young, at most in his thirties. The fact that Fei Jiao was the chief instructor of the Ancient Capital's Battlemages indicated that he was no ordinary man!
"It's fine, to be honest, I was quite impressed by you. Almost everyone who knew about the Dark Abyss would not go there for at least a year, but you went there, and even brought my student back …" said Fei Jiao.
"Initially? You didn't expect an outsider like me to have no idea what a Dark Abyss is, did you? "said Mofan.
"HAHAHA, that's not what I meant. It's not the first time I've heard my student mention you. His recognition and admiration for you as his big brother is greater than me, his instructor and teacher. That being said, you're no ordinary man, I've heard a lot about you, "Fei Jiao reached out his hand and shook Mofan's hand in a friendly manner.
There were at least forty Magicians present, with most of them being Intermediate Magicians and a few Advanced Magicians. First, a Councilman was talking to the kid, then the chief instructor of the Ancient Capital was praising him. Everyone was confused. Who exactly was the guy? Judging from his badge, he was only an Intermediate Magician!
Mofan smiled modestly. However, he immediately noticed a lot of displeased and jealous gazes directed at him. He did not dare to continue chatting with Fei Jiao, and changed the topic to something more serious.
Fei Jiao continued, "The second time the Dark Abyss appeared, it was around a hundred kilometers away from the city. Unfortunately, one of my students was there, and he almost lost his life. The third time … it was around thirty kilometers away from the outer walls, a place that used to be in the outskirts of the city! "
"It's getting closer each time!" said a Magician of the Hunter Union.
"Yes, it's getting closer and closer each time. It's getting closer and closer to our current city …"
"Didn't they say the Dark Abyss was unpredictable? Could it be a coincidence?" Zhong Zishan asked.
"We also hope that it's just a coincidence, but these three incidents really make us reconsider," said the Commander beside Zhu Meng who had been silent for a long time.
The Commander was the General Commander of the North Wall. The soldiers in Battlemages' outfits along the North Wall, which stretched for over ten kilometers, were all under his command.
"So you've gathered us here to fight against the Dark Abyss? There's no way we can resist the Dark Abyss, not to mention that we are only Intermediate Magicians, "someone said.
"Wherever the Dark Abyss appears, it will leave a strong presence of death. I believe many Warrior-level and Lord-level undead will gather there in no time … I hope everyone here will guard the tower tonight. If the high-level undead show any sign of approaching, we must eliminate them at once!" said Councilman Zhu Meng.
"As long as we're not going to investigate the Dark Abyss, I'm fine with it," said a student.
"Don't worry, Councilman, we might not stand a chance against the enormous Dark Abyss, but if any demon beasts are causing trouble in the Dark Abyss, we will surely eliminate them. It's our duty as Magicians!"
"I'm fine with it too, I'm willing to guard the tower for the whole night!"
"Count me in!"
"Count me in too!"
The Magicians were relieved when they heard the Councilman was not going to trouble the Dark Abyss.
Since everyone had shown up in the area, most of them had the intention to eliminate the undead. It was not a problem for them to help the government keep watch for the night. After all, there were more than forty Intermediate Magicians and four to five Advanced Magicians. With their strength, they could even hold their own against a Lord-level undead.
"ROAR!!!"
As everyone expressed their willingness to lend a hand, a deafening roar came from the gloomy sky in the north, causing the Steel Wall to shake vigorously!
Everyone felt a sharp pain in their eardrums, as if a huge shockwave had crashed into the city with a majestic momentum that covered the horizon.
Councilman Zhu Meng, Chief Military Instructor Fei Jiao, and the commander of the North Wall, Lu Xu, were startled. They quickly turned around and stared at the enormous black shadow in the distance …
Mo Fan glanced in the same direction and saw the same shadow he had seen when he first arrived at the Wall. This time, it was closer than the last time, and he could see it more clearly. He could still feel the visual impact of its terrifying body at such a distance!
"It's it again, it's trying to gather more undead with the presence of death from the Dark Abyss to break through the North Wall!" snapped Zhu Meng furiously.
"This is bad, the Undead Ruler is already leading an army of undead. With the help of the Dark Abyss, it will be unstoppable. We have to ask for more reinforcements," said the advisor.
"We're having a hard time getting more men," said Commander Lu Xu in a deep voice.
"We can't, our men are limited, but the undead are endless. If we can't make it through the night, the Undead Ruler is going to break through the North Wall. The North Wall is going to turn into a sea of blood," said Chief Military Instructor Fei Jiao.
"It seems like we have no choice but to carry out the plan we came up with," said Councilman Zhu Meng with a frown.
"Councilman, it's too risky. We might be trapped among the undead if we're not careful," said the advisor.
"Advisor Zhu, I, Zhu Meng, will not allow a demon creature to wreak havoc in my city. We don't have enough manpower to fend off the undead, but we do have a chance to kill this Undead Ruler-level creature!" Zhu Meng said righteously.
Zhu Meng's position in the Magic Association was not because he was in charge of many renowned clans, nor was it because he had the support of many factions in secret. It was because he always took the lead whenever there was a threat. It was something that the other Councilmen, who had long been corrupted and only knew how to strategize on paper, were unable to do.
This boldness had helped him achieve his current status!
"No, no way, if you fail, who's going to be in charge of the North Wall? Everything is going to fall into chaos!" Advisor Zhu strongly disagreed with the idea of putting their lives at risk.
Councilman Zhu Meng liked to take the lead, but he would not drag the others into such a dangerous mission just because he was a Councilman.
"Then, do you have a plan to stop the Phantom Tyrant Emperor's attack?" asked Zhu Meng in return.
"There's always a way."
"In less than an hour, they will appear less than three kilometers away," said Zhu Meng.
"That won't work either," Advisor Zhu had no intention of backing down.
"What if I join in?" Among the Magicians, a man with dashing eyebrows in a long black robe stepped forward. He had a calm, confident smile on his face.
Everyone's gaze fell on this person. Among them, the members of the Hunter's Union seemed to have recognized this person at a glance, and they all revealed surprised expressions.
