Versatile Mage Chapter 2678

Chapter 2678 - The Undying Mu Bai

Morale was extremely important. If someone did not have a great reputation and could not overwhelm an enemy with brute force, the others who had joined their cause and were thinking of looting a burning house would hesitate to get further involved.

The people who came had sound minds. They did not join the crusade for glory, dignity, or life and death. They were after Fanxue Mountain’s rich resources and wanted a share of the loot.

A single faction had no chance of taking down the piece of juicy meat alone, hence why the alliance had been formed.

They were weak of will and lacked determination. They were also afraid of being punished by the country and the Enforcement Union. If they could not beat the enemy with a single push, their alliance that was established based on personal interests might collapse at any second!

“What the heck is Lin Kang doing?” Zhao Jing demanded coldly, glaring ahead.

The battle between Lin Kang and Mu Bai inside the mist still had not ended!

They had already heard Mu Bai’s screams. The battle between the two renowned Magistrates should have ended by now. Killing a key member of the enemy’s leadership was crucial to the battle! The rest of the factions were still waiting, instead of pushing up the mountain.

They were waiting for the people in charge to take out Fanxue Mountain’s Super Mages!

“The Moon Talisman Blessing is only used up while you are using destructive spells. Brother Zhao Jing, there’s no need to feel anxious,” Nanrong Ni said when she saw Zhao Jing was getting agitated.

Zhao Jing nodded. It would not hurt him to wait a little longer. Lin Kang had to win the fight for the North City soldiers to press forward.

Lin Kang’s army was their main force. If they had not been worried about being accused by the leaders of Feiniao Headquarters City, they would have attacked Fanxue Mountain ruthlessly.

After all, the people of Fanxue Mountain were not sea monsters, nor were they real traitors. Lin Kang and certain people behind him had falsely accused them of treason. It was just common infighting, as everyone was running short on resources in a desperate time like this. They would have to take out their enemy in a single blow, or they would have no choice but to retreat. Even if neither side won in the end, the officials and Councilmen would not be able to explain themselves to their superiors and the people.

Why were they fighting their own kind when the sea monsters were clearly a greater threat to mankind?

“Boss, the later you are involved in the battle, the more advantageous it is to us. Everyone knows you are the strongest among us. As long as you are still around, all of us will feel secure. It doesn’t matter how the battle is turning out, none of us will think we have lost,” Mu Jiang said to Mo Fan quietly.

“I understand, but we have already seen Zhao Jing’s strength. He also has the Moon Talisman Blessing now. If he makes his move, I can’t afford to wait any longer,” Mo Fan replied calmly.

“If you trust me, I can hold him off for a while. You just have to wait a little longer to give our men some confidence,” Mu Jiang said.

Zhao Jing was about to make his move. He had fixed his eyes on Mo Fan.

Mo Fan was Fanxue Mountain’s boss. Once Mo Fan was taken out, Fanxue Mountain would be a thunder of dragons without a head!

Mo Fan shook his head.

Zhao Jing had dared to challenge their whole group in Lanyang. Mu Bai and Zhao Manyan had been severely injured in the fight. Even though he had set up the Lightning Drum Formation in advance, he was still a formidable enemy!

Mo Fan had not seen Mu Jiang’s strength yet, but his instincts were telling him Mu Jiang was not strong enough to fight Zhao Jing.

However, Mo Fan was not in a rush, and indeed was calmer than Zhao Jing. He knew what their plan was, and he knew the longer the battle went on, the worse the enemy’s situation was.

The North City army had organized the crusade against Fanxue Mountain. Even if they won, they would have to bear the ill-fame for their wicked acts. The soldiers would not benefit a lot from the battle.

However, if the army lost, they would just retreat. They knew Fanxue Mountain was not going to hunt them down. They would lose Lin Kang and some captains at most!

Most importantly, the outcome of the battle between the Black and White Magistrates had not been decided yet!

“Can anyone see what’s going on inside the mist?” a North Army general asked.

“We don’t know! I believe the mayor has won, but I’m not sure how the chief is now. I hope he’s still alive,” a captain who was once a member of the South Wing Platoon answered.

“Why is this happening?” the general sighed.

Lin Kang’s aide-de-camp Zhou Yi came over with a dark expression. He glanced at those who seemed hesitant and scolded them, “Are you all tired of living? How could you lose your morale now?”

The general was amused by his words. “General Zhou, don’t even bother, we all have a brain. It’s not like we should just blindly follow our superiors. Mayor Lin has only been here for a year. We have done everything he asked since he came. We wouldn’t bat an eye if we were to die fighting sea monsters, but fighting Fanxue Mountain…”

“What do you mean? Wasn’t Fanxue Mountain accused of treason?” Zhou Yi snarled at him.

“Even if Fanxue Mountain has committed treason, there should be official documents approved by both the Enforcement Union and Councilmen. North City is only allowed to send the army out after Fanxue Mountain with an imperial order from the capital. The seals of the mayor and some Councilmen alone are not enough,” the general scoffed at him.

“You… I can execute you right now for not following your orders!” Zhou Yi snarled.

“I don’t doubt it, but we have eyes and brains. We can follow the mayor’s orders since he’s our superior, but you have to understand, Mu Bai is the chief of the South Wing Platoon, with the same status as you. If…If the mayor dies in this battle, you and Mu Bai will be in charge of the North City army,” the Major General said calmly.

“Even though the chief of the South Wing Platoon doesn’t give us orders directly, he has the right to negate your decisions. If we kill him and his close ones, wouldn’t that be a mutiny?” another captain spoke up.

“General, you shouldn’t make things difficult for us anymore. When I was guarding the Magic City, the rest of my family was here in North City. Once, the whole city was hypnotized by the sea monsters. If it weren’t for Fanxue Mountain, all of them would be dead by now. How can I go against them?” another captain said.

Most of the people of Feiniao Headquarters City had moved here from other places. On the other hand, Fanxue Mountain was their host, and its people had helped them a lot, not to mention those whose families were directly under Fanxue Mountain’s protection!
