Chapter 54 - CHAPTER 54: A NON RENEWABLE RESOURCE!

Zhankong couldn't hear what Mo Fan said. But his gaze also followed the desolated city, there were sounds of howl echoing throughout the city.

Sigh…

Mo Fan sighed, his aura calmed down… but he frowned even deeper. He felt like having a headache…

_It's no use mulling over it, since I can't reverse what has already happened, and whether Salan is really here or not does not matter either, since she won't show herself no matter what…

I need to deal with that Ruler Level Monster somehow…_

"... Argh!!…Shit! It's impossible… I can't deal with a Ruler in my current state..." Mo Fan said in annoyance.

His body was injured his mana reserves were depleted and his mental will was also exhausted. Even his 'Soul Call' Undead Element spell had stopped functioning 45min ago.

Plus a Ruler Level Monster was strong… Hella strong! Not even the current Zhankong was a match against it, much less Mo Fan who was just an Intermediate Mage.

Mo Fan cast a glance at Zhankong's Battlemages and made a complicated face… There were 40 Advanced Mages but it was no use… they couldn't deal with the Ruler Level Monster and it's army…

Zhankong heard Mo Fan this time. He was honestly surprised that Mo Fan even thought of taking on a Ruler Level Monster.

"Mo Fan—"

"Shut it! I don't wanna hear anything from you right now. It will just make me more mad! Go and deal with that first, then we'll talk." Mo Fan was angry at Zhankong, but he was also frustrated.

He haughtily pointed at the Darkwing Wolf who was slumbering far away into the distance.

The people around them were surprised again! They just couldn't believe how arrogant Mo Fan was!

He was now spouting orders to Military Commander Zhankong like he's his boss.

While everyone were being surprised he removed a mana potion from his pocket and drank it. His body glowed in Blue light and all of his Element's mana reserves were filled up!

He noticed Zhankong's gaze and said "Hurry up and get lost already! I'll take care of things here" He held the letter within two fingers while showing it to Zhankong who was not moving an inch.

Zhankong didn't say anything but he turned around.

"Heed my order!" Zhankong's gaze was like lightning as he suddenly shouted out loudly.

The motionless Battlemages to the side suddenly put on their battle faces, a stern feeling instantly pervaded the whistling wind.

"Kill the Darkwing Wolf" Zhankong yelled out once more, his words were brief and his voice was filled with killing intent.

"Kill the Darkwing Wolf!"

"Kill the Darkwing Wolf!"

"Kill…"

The forty people under Zhankong's direct command simultaneously answered with a vigorous fervour. Their Auras shot up as their bodies glowed in a strong light!

Commander Zhankong took a step forward. His azure Military windbreaker was blown high.

SWOOOSHHH~~~

Zhankong fell off from the rooftop. He was freefalling when suddenly his body glowed and Three Pairs of Silver Wings with Red Hue emerged from his back!

ZWOOOOSHHH~~

He rocketed into the sky like a red blaze~

Many of the people present there could feel their heart racing watching Zhankong's heroic figure flying off into the distance!

In the dusky weather, and the bloodstained city, between the heavens and the city, a shadow that was carried by Six Wings was free and untamed.

In front of this kind of disaster, everyone seemed exceptionally miniscule… except for him, the man who had Wings.

He dares to say he is going to kill the Darkwing Wolf!

He dares to say that he will protect the city!

_Huuuuu~~_ The wind from his wings was so furious that everyone in the Safe Zone could sense a violent storm about to rage in the city!

After Zhankong flew away, the forty people under his direct command also jumped down on Forty great white eagle-like birds carrying the officers flying toward the Silver Trade Tower in the grey sky.

"… Those are Heavenly Eagles! Wow~ Seeing them after so long… After the era of Dragon Mounts came in the future, the heavenly eagles were disbanded and never to be seen again… Wonder what happened to them…" Mo Fan said as he watched them fly away.

As Zhankong flew by himself with the Wind Wings, and the forty Heavenly Eagles soared through the skies, a thunderous shout rose from the people within the Safety Shelters.

The Calamity would finally come to an end!

In the days of the Crimson Alert, the role of humans was to be food, and run away, weak and scared. However, that did not mean that humans were helpless, and were poultry who were confined to the city!

Within the ranks of humans, there were a certain kind of people. They were known as Mages!

Protectors of the Human Race! There was only one job they needed to follow through and that was to destroy the Monsters who threatened their cities!

Ruthlessly…

Ruthlessly slaughter the Monsters!

Within the Safety Shelters, the newly joined people were just resting down on the streets, some were searching for their friends and families while some were in shock of losing them.

They were just common everyday folk, who were mediocre and had nothing to do with magic…

However, they all raised their heads to see the shadows above the city. They saw the forty majestic eagles streaking across the sky, heard the loud shouts of all the Battlemages within the Safety Shelters.

It was just like beating military drums… all their eyes were thoroughly drawn toward the scene, their pupils expanding.

Their hearts were surging like the beating of the drums, following the forty streaks that were flying toward the Darkwing Wolf.

Among them was a skinny boy who looked similar to a monkey who was sitting beside a beautiful girl who was leaning on him. He was supporting her as she slept because of the exhaustion.

He was extremely fascinated with the forty-one majestic figures flying in the sky so valiantly!

His eyes glistened, while his heart raced! He felt this hopeless sense of excitement raging inside him which just couldn't be stopped!

He gripped his heart tightly and looked at the girl resting beside him peacefully.

He then suddenly remembered how he was sent flying when he was fighting against the Cursed Beast Monster.

All it took for them to put him out of commission was just a single punch. Even now after remembering it, his ribs started hurting.

"This won't do… I need to get stronger." Zhang Xiaohou said while looking at He Yu. He then glanced back at the soaring majestic figures who had already flown into the distance.

His eyes this time were resolute and filled with a new found determination, as if he had found his purpose in life!

Mo Fan watched Zhankong and his Battlemages go into the city. He didn't really needed to be worried about them, Since the Darkwing Wolf was weakened and tired right now.

But even if it didn't have that handicapped, Zhankong wouldn't struggle with him at all.

He turned around and saw a number of people just staring at him as if they were lost.

"Hmph."

He turned his gaze below towards the people who were taking refuge in the Shelter.

"Now what should I do about all this…" Mo Fan wondered out loud.

"Right… their objective is the Totem Spring, isn't it?" Mo Fan removed the Vial containing the Totem Spring and peeked inside.

BRRRRR~~

Little Loach immediately started vibrating vigorously!

"Do you want to be locked up again?" Mo Fan asked while readying his fusion magic again.

"…"

It immediately quietened down and behaved itself like a good little kid.

"Sigh… I'm sorry but I can't let you drink it. Stick to Soul Essences only for now, I promise I'll let you eat something even better in the future." Mo Fan said as he promised Little Loach!

The Totem Spring was way too precious for him to feed it to Little Loach. It was an energy source which was comparable to or even more valuable than the 'World Core' (Formerly known as Earth Pistil or Stamen of the Earth).

There were many other ways to upgrade Little Loach, but once the energy of a Totem Spring was depleted it was gone for good.

It was a non-renewable resource which was coveted by all.

Mo Fan put it back inside his Spatial pocket. "Yup… One wrong move and I'll lose this, I'd rather keep this as my last resort…" Mo Fan said.
