Chapter 88 Four-Star Rating

"Jiang Shaoxu is here..."

Just as Nan Jue was about to speak up and ask Ai Jiangtu to save the person, she saw Jiang Shaoxu, who had been far behind, emerge from a silver ripple.

"Phew~ It has to be Gojo Satoru again!" Jiang Shaoxu said with a sigh of relief, patting his chest.

"Since everything's alright, let's continue our retreat," Nan Jue said helplessly.

After all, the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast behind them hadn't given up its pursuit.

"You two go first, I'll go and deal with this relentless siren!" Ai Jiangtu said with a grim expression.

He wasn't a mage without a temper, so since the Blue Valley Fierce Beast insisted on chasing him, he simply stopped running!

A silver light emanated from his body, and in the next moment, he vanished in a flash along with a silver constellation.

With his high-level cultivation, Ai Jiangtu actually directly confronted the commander-level Blue Valley Ferocious Beast!

"Hey, Ai Jiangtu's got some guts!" Gojo Satoru said with his hands in his pockets, watching the scene with a smile.

The others noticed and immediately turned around, only to find Ai Jiangtu standing beneath the monster.

Compared to the seemingly tiny bodies of sea monsters, they exuded an imposing aura, even possessing the power to rival ruler-level creatures!

Seeing that the captain had already gone up, I figured that Ai Jiangtu would probably have the final say on the allocation of resources.

One by one, their fighting spirit was ignited, and they turned back to fight the ferocious beast of the Blue Valley.

More than a dozen star charts shimmered brilliantly, and magical energies of different attributes rained down upon them: pillars of fire, chains of frost, thunderbolts, and swirling whirlwinds...

For a normal mage, the team is extremely important in the fight against demons.

Combining different types of magic to attack a single target can produce significant results.

However, a commander-level Blue Valley Ferocious Beast is by no means so easily injured.

These spells flew in, but even though they all hit it, it didn't seem to be injured. At most, they left some messy marks on its scales and armor.

Seeing the scene before him, Zujiming felt that his chance to shine had finally come.

He was the poison mage in the team. He stood at the back, and when he opened his palm, a poison acupoint appeared in his hand.

From within the poisonous cave, tiny poisonous bees flew out like wisps of silk.

The poisonous bees flew rather slowly, and it took them a long time to get close to the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast.

Unexpectedly, the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast was extremely alert and suddenly opened its mouth and roared into the air.

The dampness carried by the strong wind instantly neutralized Zu Jiming's poison attack.

"As expected of a weakling." Gojo Satoru stood on a rooftop and looked down at the scene below, mockingly.

At that moment, Ai Jiangtu's spatial magic reached its limit. He reminded everyone to "get out of the way" and then let the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast take off and run over them.

Ai Jiangtu teleported to the top of a building in an instant and immediately spotted the sea monster's vital point. He hurriedly shouted to the others, "Attack its head!"

The blue valley ferocious beast's fish brain was clearly unprotected by any scales, which was obviously its weakness!

"Captain, I'm afraid we won't be able to get close enough to launch an effective attack, and Gojo Satoru isn't making a move!"

However, while Ai Jiangtu's idea was good, most of his teammates were only mid-level, making it difficult for them to attack vital points while withstanding the attacks of the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast.

"Boom!"

"Splash, splash, splash."

Before Ai Jiangtu could say anything, the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast had already begun destroying the building and was chasing after the source of the sound.

This is the very place where Jiang Yu just shouted!

In the monster's eyes, Jiang Yu was nothing more than a little mouse hiding in a crack in the rock. Fortunately, all the buildings here were extremely sturdy.

Even for a ruler-level creature, it would take some time to destroy them.

"Damn, this is such a human-centered design!" Jiang Yu exclaimed in admiration of the builder's wisdom when he saw the speed of the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast's charge being severely hampered.

Then he started running wildly.

"Jiang Yu, don't run that way!" Just as Jiang Yu was running for his life, he suddenly heard Nan Jue shout.

But in such a critical moment, Jiang Yu had no time to pay attention to these things.

Ignoring the warning, Jiang Yu ran to the middle and back of the narrow path, when he was suddenly stopped by a sharp, pointed foot hanging high above.

Looking back, Jiang Yu finally understood why Nan Jue had told him not to run away from here.

These two powerful demons, who were at the commander level, were running here, one in front and one behind, blocking him in this narrow passage.

It's commonly known as being wrapped up like a dumpling!

Seeing this, Gojo Satoru could no longer slack off. He grabbed the sharp foot and flung it away violently.

Then he opened a spatial portal and reached out to pull Jiang Yu over from the other side.

"Alright, if you're weak, don't court death. Can't you just obediently leave this place?"

"Get out of here! I'm not going to play house with you anymore. If you go looking for death, I won't interfere."

Gojo Satoru's voice clearly reached the ears of everyone present.

Thus, the battle against the Commander-level Blue Valley Ferocious Beast ended in this manner.

Ai Jiangtu and the others easily escaped the entanglement of the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast thanks to Wu Tiao Wu's intervention.

……

Near the high embankment in Donghai City, a towering cylindrical building stands out conspicuously, its imposing presence felt even from several blocks away.

Led by Nan Jue, the Nationalist government delegation arrived here and found the person who was supposed to receive them, following the directions.

The host was an administrator of a magic association. He led the group to a 400-square-meter suite with more than a dozen rooms for them to choose from.

So after everyone had chosen where they would be staying, they asked the staff about their jobs.

The person who greeted us was an administrator of the Magic Association, a man with pointed cheeks who looked to be no more than thirty years old.

The host then explained their mission.

After listening to the other party's explanation, the members of the National Government team realized that they were as if they had been introduced to this job.

What was supposed to be a valuable experience turned into backbreaking labor.

After understanding the situation, the man named Lai Hengbao left.

Before leaving, I specifically reminded everyone that there would be a major high tide the day after tomorrow, so put on your battle gear and get ready to face it.

The group began discussing how to quickly achieve the four-star rating required by their mentor.

"No problem. We have two high-level mages here who are skilled in casting spells. As long as Gojo doesn't slack off, it'll be a piece of cake," Zhao Manyan said with a light laugh.

"Yes," Jiang Yu echoed.

The others also found it easy.

However, Gojo Satoru, leaning against a pillow, shattered their illusions.

"This is a training mission for you people, not mine. At most, I can guarantee your survival."

These words struck the still unsettled hearts of everyone like a hammer blow.

"Why?!" Zu Jiming and Guan Yu immediately questioned.

The others were also extremely confused.

"Because I don't need resources, and I'm much stronger than them!" Gojo Satoru smiled contemptuously, his words implying that the people present were weak.

In an instant, all ten of them felt a deep sense of malice.

"Even my advisor can't control me. Of course, if you can beat me, then I don't care."

After leaving those words, Gojo Satoru departed.
