Two High-Rank Battles, Two Commanders!

Chapter 66 Two High-Rank Battles, Two Commanders!

On the other side, the winged wolf from before wouldn't stand idly by either.

Indeed, there is conflict among demons, especially between different races and groups, who are irreconcilable.

However, most of them follow one principle: when there are humans on the field, no matter how intense the conflict is, the priority is to deal with the human mages.

Internal strife is acceptable, but when an enemy comes, we must unite against it.

"Heavenly Flame Funeral!"

"Wings of the Wind!"

Zhan Kong truly lives up to his reputation as a former member of the National Team. Even though wind and fire are not his majors, his casting speed is not slow at all, and he can easily use constellations.

Despite being attacked from both sides by two winged wolves and having his curse ability sealed, he was still able to barely hold on. However, as time went on, Zhan Kong's injuries worsened, his face turned pale, and his magic power was depleted. It was only a matter of time before he was defeated.

"It's time for this old man to step up!"

Inside the safety barrier, atop the watchtower, Principal Zhu laughed with relief, as a wind-element constellation appeared behind him.

"Old Zhu, this won't work!"

"You can't go!"

Deng Kai, Yang Zuohe, and other high-ranking officials spoke out to dissuade him, as they were all well aware of Principal Zhu's situation.

It's true that his cultivation level is high, but his body is not as good as before. Moreover, as time goes by, his magical cultivation level has regressed instead of progressing, and he can barely maintain his high-level cultivation.

If Principal Zhu were to force himself to fight with all his might, it would cause a great loss to his physical functions, not to mention that he would also have to face the vicious Winged Wolf.

He was the most senior and had a great reputation in Bo City; no one wanted him to perish here.

"Alright, then tell me, without my intervention, can you stop a single Winged Wolf?"

Principal Zhu's smile vanished, and he questioned the crowd.

…………

Everyone looked troubled, and no one responded.

"No, right?" Principal Zhu had already anticipated this outcome and said with a faint smile.

Indeed, there are no. In Bo City, there are only two known high-level mages. Apart from them, even mid-level dual-elemental mages would be instantly killed in front of Winged Wolf.

The transition from intermediate to advanced levels can even be described as a leap in the level of life itself. The barriers between them cannot be broken by any spiritual seed or innate talent.

Even someone as strong as Mo Fan could only barely manage to fight the weakest of the commanders, Corpse Minister, in the later stages by relying on the fourth-level fire magic [Fierce Fist - Nine Dragons] and Little Flame Princess's possession.

"Okay, it's decided then."

Principal Zhu's words were not to be doubted. The situation on Zhan Kong's side was critical. If he were killed by Yi Canglang, Bo City would have no chance of being saved.

"Old Zhu..." Deng Kai hesitated, then continued, "Remember to come back alive."

"Haha, Old Deng, that's not something I can decide. It depends on whether that Winged Wolf is willing to let me go!"

After Principal Zhu finished speaking, his blue wings flapped, stirring up clouds of dust. Magical energy spread, and he soared upwards, heading towards the battlefield that would determine the fate of Bo City.

If they win this battle, Bo City can be saved; if they lose, they will never admit defeat and will fight to the death!

…………

"This is the high-level spell [Wings of Wind]! Our Bo City actually has a high-level mage! We're saved!"

Inside the safety barrier, the crowd erupted in cheers, their spirits lifted.

After receiving treatment, Mu He's injuries improved. Leaning against the bed, he turned to look through the window at the two beasts and one person dueling above Bo City, and gave a sinister smile.

He didn't waste his precious space scroll and an arm to steal the wolf cubs from the Winged Wolf's den and frame the people of Bo City.

I just happened to let you discover the underground passage before, so I don't believe you'll be safe and sound this time!

Principal Zhu is just an old man; he won't affect the overall situation!

…………

In the sky battlefield, Zhan Kong unleashed a high-level [Hellfire] with a wave of his hand, repelling one Winged Wolf, but was ambushed by the claws of another Winged Wolf, leaving a hideous gash on his back.

The claws of the Winged Wolf are afflicted with a blood-staining effect. If it does not receive healing spells for a short period of time, its blood will continue to flow until it becomes a dried-up human body!

"Old Zhu, what brings you here!" Zhan Kong turned around, feigning surprise. "I thought you, this old man, were going to continue hiding like a coward!"

"What a coward! You have no respect for your elders! Do you believe I'll throw you to the Winged Wolf as food?" Principal Zhu said angrily, puffing out his beard and glaring.

"Haha!" Zhan Kong laughed nonchalantly, completely unaware that he was facing a life-or-death situation.

"Be serious, I don't want Bocheng to be ruined by these two guys!" Principal Zhu said solemnly.

"Alright!" Zhan Kong also dropped his nonchalant expression, then dodged the Winged Wolf's claw attack by sidestepping, and said to Principal Zhu, "That Winged Wolf was seriously injured earlier, and its combat power is no longer at its peak. I'll leave it to you to handle. I'll take the other one!"

"Alright!" Principal Zhu had no objections. He flapped his wings and engaged the first winged wolf in battle.

"Light rained down, covering the ground!"

A magnificent golden constellation surrounded Principal Zhu, exuding an astonishing aura.

Principal Zhu was decisive, knowing that ordinary mid-level magic would not have a significant effect on commander-level demons, so he spared no effort in using his magic power to cast high-level light magic.

The initial stage of the Light element is like a light bulb, the intermediate stage is like a turtle shell, and only at the advanced stage can it truly possess offensive capabilities.

【Light Falls Over the Hundreds】After the constellation appears, hundreds of beams of light will fall. Ordinary beams of light have limited damage, but in fact, the shape of the beams can be controlled by the mage himself, turning them into the shape of swords, and the attack power can completely leap to another level.

For example, in the original work, Li Man, a member of the Kuomintang's Military Intelligence Bureau, could transform the "Light Falls and Spreads" into the shape of an arrow, which would have a powerful penetrating effect and greatly enhance his attack power.

Hundreds of arrows of light rained down, striking the thick hide of the Winged Wolf. Individually, one or two arrows might not even be as powerful as a mid-level spell, but once combined, they were enough to make even the most powerful demons tremble in fear.

"roar!"

The Winged Wolf let out a painful roar. Under the same conditions, the destructive power of [Light Falls Over the Scales] is hard to match with fire and lightning spells. Normally, this spell would only cause it minor injuries at most.

However, don't forget that the Soul Seed Flame of Zhan Kong still lingers on its body, burrowing into its muscles like a maggot, damaging its body tissues and weakening its defenses. This is why [Light Falls Over the Foot] was able to inflict significant damage on it.

It's a pity that the Winged Wolf doesn't have the Dark attribute, otherwise the attribute advantage would have made the power of [Light Falling] even stronger!

Seeing its companion at a disadvantage, the other winged wolf also prepared to provide support, but was blocked by Zhan Kong.

"You want to go? Have you asked me? Heavenly Flame Funeral!" Zhan Kong shouted, summoning fire magic and becoming entangled with it.
