Versatile Mage: Thunderstorm
Chapter 210: Going to the Tomb to Save People
“Thank you both so much for what happened today.”
At the gate of the ranch, Ge Ming held Li Yu’s hands with both hands, shaking them constantly, and said with gratitude:
“If you two hadn’t acted in time, our hunter group would have been in great danger this time.”
As he spoke, Ge Ming took out a check and handed it to Li Yu.
“It’s just a small token of my appreciation. Please don’t refuse.”
Li Yu took the check and subconsciously glanced at the number. It started with a 3, followed by one, two, three, four, five… eight zeros, three hundred million!
“Captain Ge gave me too much, didn’t he?”
“Not much, not much.” Ge Ming waved his hands repeatedly.
“If it weren’t for you two today, this amount of money wouldn’t be enough to pay the brothers pensions.”
What Ge Ming said couldn’t be more true. The minimum standard of cultivation for the Golden War Hunter Corps is a mid-level mage. The high threshold comes with high benefits. The amount of pension for each mid-level mage hunter who dies is at least two to three million. Nearly four hundred people were poisoned in the first wave of the Poison Hunter Corps. If those people could not be rescued, the pension would definitely be in the tens digits. In comparison, three hundred million can only be said to be a drop in the bucket.
What’s more, this time the Jin Zhan Hunter Group at least really destroyed the Black Church stronghold and captured at least two people in blue. Even if the bounty was divided 50-50 between Li Yu and the other two, it would still be a considerable sum of several acres.
What’s more, tonight’s events would bring great reputation to the Golden War Hunter Group as long as they were put into operation. It’s just a small amount of money and the investment would be paid back soon.
“Then we’ll take it.”
Afterwards, Ge Ming exchanged contact information with the two of them. After all, in the domestic hunter circle, the Jinzhan Hunter Group is quite famous, and they will see each other every day in the future and will always be able to use them.
For Ge Ming, whether it is Li Yu’s rare magic system and powerful combat power, or Ding Yumian’s special profession, they are all talents that need to be won over, and the three of them can be said to have hit it off.
After leaving the manor, Li Yu handed the check to Ding Yumian and said to him in the face of his strange gaze:
“Please take care of my share of the trouble for now.”
“after all……”
“You know me. I don’t need to spend money now.”
Li Yu spoke words that aroused envy and jealousy, while Ding Yumian took the check reluctantly. As expected, her boyfriend had finally reached the point where he was no longer interested in money.
Li Yu, whose cultivation resources are all taken care of by Lei Cheng, no longer needs to fight for any resources for himself. Instead of doing so, he might as well give all the money to his wife, who has no resources yet. Then, the two of them can cast the forbidden spell together and go anywhere in the world.
Ding Yumian is not a pretentious person. Since Li Yu doesn’t have to worry about resources from now on, there is no need to divide their income. The way to survive is to convert it into strength as quickly as possible. According to Dean Xiao, the monsters in the ocean have become more and more dishonest over the years.
After a little episode about money, Ding Yumian recalled what happened today and couldn’t help laughing.
“What you meant by [swearing] today was to ask someone to curse Saran?”
Li Yu said as a matter of course:
“Isn’t it easy to use?”
“Indeed…it’s very useful.” Ding Yumian said with a smile.
For the members of the Black Church under the command of the bishops, the cardinal is their god, especially the higher-level members such as priests and deacons. The thoughts of worship and awe are almost engraved in their minds. Asking them to insult Saran is tantamount to asking the wizards of the Holy City to humiliate the Father.
……
Li Yu, who was standing at the gate of the community, stretched his body and yawned:
“finally arrived at home.”
Ding Yumian did not speak, but fatigue was evident in her calm eyes. After all, the two of them had gone through a series of twists and turns, from rushing into Chongming to participating in the capture operation of the Jinzhan Hunter Group, and then the ranch and manor were destroyed. They had not rested during this period and were somewhat tired.
After a simple night’s rest, early the next morning, Li Yu, who had just bought steamed buns from the breakfast shop downstairs in the community, received an email notification on his mobile phone. He opened the email with a puzzled look on his face, and then…
“Ancient capital?”
When Li Yu returned home, Ding Yumian happened to come out of the room with a mobile phone. The two exchanged glances and said in unison:
“Did you get the email too?” x2
“Dean Xiao sent me an email and asked me to go to the dean’s office, saying that the ancient capital has changed.” Ding Yumian spoke first.
Li Yu nodded.
“me too.”
Then Li Yu casually complained:
“As expected of Dean Xiao, he is well-informed. I just came back yesterday and the email arrived early this morning.” Ding Yumian did not take over the conversation, but said:
“Let’s go together. There aren’t many things that can make Dean Xiao contact us on his own initiative.”
“Let’s go.”
Not many, but each one means a lot.
……
In the dean’s office.
“What? Let’s go down to the grave?”
After listening to Dean Xiao’s story, Li Yu and Ding Yumian looked at Dean Xiao in surprise. The latter showed a helpless bitter smile.
“Ah, not only are the Egyptian team’s national government team trapped in the mausoleum, but there are also quite a few rescue teams we sent down there.”
“Fortunately, that mausoleum does not seem to be isolated from communications, so the trapped personnel were able to pass on the information.”
“According to the speculation of the Ancient Capital Clock Tower Magic Association, the mausoleum should be a test site. As long as someone passes the test, they should be able to rescue the trapped people.”
“But……”
Dean Xiao shook his head.
“That Tang Dynasty mausoleum is a bit weird. Super-level mages can’t enter at all. After entering the mausoleum, high-level mages will be directly pulled into a special space to fight against the black-armored undead cavalry inside. Each of those undead cavalry is as powerful as a great commander, and has a high resistance to elemental magic. They are not even afraid of light magic that restrains undead. Ordinary high-level mages will be killed if they go in, and they can’t get out at all.”
“There’s nothing we can do about it in the ancient capital. We’ve reported it to the parliament, and the parliament is also recruiting powerful high-level non-elemental mages from all the major forces. So, I thought of you two.”
After all, the commander-level undead are enough to defeat most high-level mages, not to mention that the opponent has elemental magic resistance, which can directly defeat most elemental mages.
Among the remaining magic systems, white magic is not very strong in direct combat power, and black magic is even less effective, as it is used to buff the undead. Apart from the undead system, the most useful one is dimensional magic.
Look, Li Yu and Ding Yumian, one is from the space system and the other is from the undead system, both of them are quite powerful, especially Ding Yumian. As she is from the undead system, she herself has an undead of the commander-level, so she is fully capable of fighting against the other party.
Then Dean Xiao added:
“Of course, this depends on your personal wishes. I won’t force you. If you succeed in rescuing the trapped people, the reward will naturally be generous.”
However, after hearing what Dean Xiao said, Li Yu and Ding Yumian looked at each other.
“Ancient capital? Undead cavalry?”
“Black armor?”
Such a thought popped up in the minds of both of them at the same time.
“Could it be that thing?”
Soon, Li Yu’s face looked strange. Dean Xiao looked at Li Yu with a very strange expression and asked in confusion:
“What? What’s your problem?”
Li Yu covered his face.
“No.”
Not a fart! He wanted to make some extra money, and he wanted to find out the details of the Undead Cavalry, but he was already a super-class and couldn’t even enter the mausoleum. But he couldn’t tell Dean Xiao about this, so he had to explain,
“My spatial cultivation is a bit low, so I can only handle small commanders, not big commanders.”
“Oh…” Although Dean Xiao still felt that Li Yu had some problems, he did not delve into it and turned his attention to Ding Yumian.
“Ding girl, what about you?”
Ding Yumian frowned and thought for a while.
“If it’s just the commander-in-chief, it should be fine.”
“so you……”
“Please help me sign up, Dean Xiao.”
Like Li Yu, Ding Yumian was also somewhat concerned about the characteristics of the undead mentioned by Dean Xiao. (End of this chapter)
