The Tide Recedes
The National Team already faced little pressure against these opponents, and now, with the help of Little Flame Ji, the Flame Queen, they are even more relaxed.
Little Flame Ji truly lives up to her reputation as the darling of the elements. Although her flames are not as powerful as Azure Phoenix Flame, the power of Calamity Flame is by no means weak. A single fireball is enough to extinguish even the combined water breaths of several Serrated Green Demons. Of course, after being hit by a water pillar, the damage is naturally reduced considerably.
A fireball only managed to injure a few of the Serrated Green Demon...
Upon seeing this, Little Flame Ji pouted in anger, then condensed another fireball and began bombarding the Serrated Green Demon relentlessly.
Little Flame Ji is a favorite of the fire element, so fireballs are naturally at her fingertips.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Initially, Little Flame Ji's attack wasn't particularly powerful, and the others didn't seem to notice much. However, what happened next suddenly made the team members feel like they might be less powerful than a Summoned Beast.
Little Flame Ji unleashed her power, dispatching more than ten monsters in a matter of moments. Upon seeing this, the National Team became incredibly energetic, starting to eliminate the monsters instantly. They had no choice; if they wanted resources, they had to do it this way. After all, there was a witness present.
Given Ai Jiangtu's personality, he would definitely report truthfully whoever contributed the most. When it comes to distributing resources, they might get nothing given their current situation. Although their families are very powerful, since they are families, they naturally won't be the only disciples involved.
A family has to support far too many young people... Therefore, the resources that the National Team receive are also very important.
Of course, it's different for people like Zhao Manyan, whose family is all they have left. He originally got in by throwing money at the game, and continuing to play would just be throwing money away again. The Zhao Family can certainly support him spending money to build Glory!
The aura of exploding magical elements continued to emanate from the area. After the surviving Serrated Green Demon were dealt with, the underlying ice layer shattered. And a second wave of Serrated Green Demon charged forward one by one.
Although the number wasn't large this time, there were still nearly fifty of them!
Although this is half the number of demons compared to before, they have already fought a battle, and this additional half of the Demon Beast is undoubtedly a huge pressure.
"Tang Miao, don't make a move. The rest of you, prepare for battle!" Before anyone could even ask Tang Miao to intervene, Ai Jiangtu issued the order.
After saying that, he looked at Tang Miao and said, "Unless someone dies, I hope you won't make a move. If we just rely on you to crush everyone along the way, how will we ever reach the finals?"
Tang Miao nodded, then crossed his arms. Since the captain had said not to let him intervene, he naturally had no need to interfere. Besides, Ai Jiangtu was right; if he was the only one making moves, what good would it do for them even if they advanced to a higher level? In actual combat, they would just be a bunch of cowards.
Of course, even though they had been through a war against Demon Beast, in Tang Miao's eyes they were still weaklings.
After Ai Jiangtu spoke, the group's previous sense of complacency vanished instantly... They used almost all the equipment they could find.
Seeing the magical artifacts these guys pulled out, Tang Miao couldn't help but curl his lip! He had to admit, these bastards really had a lot of trump cards up their sleeves!
The battle continued for nearly two more hours. The National Team, who had been neatly dressed before, were now almost all in tattered clothes. In fact, everyone had wounds, but they were all minor and none of them were fatal.
Of course, this is also largely due to the timely treatment received by that little bitch Nan Rongni.
After holding on for a while, apart from Ai Jiangtu and Nan Jue who were barely standing, everyone else had collapsed to the ground. Even Mu Ningxue was no exception.
This might be the difference between Military Mage and ordinary mages like them, right?
Tang Miao glanced around and saw that the tide had begun to recede, exposing areas that had been submerged to a height of two or three meters. This gradually reduced the area where the Sea Monster could move, and the battle was slowly coming to an end.
As the tide receded, the wet ruins of buildings scattered in the streets were revealed.
It's impossible to count how many Sea Monsters are still alive, but they've all been carried away by the tide. Without the seawater as their strong support, their mortality rate will increase significantly, and their strength will be greatly reduced. There's no need to continue fighting.
The Water Element of East Sea War City is also incredibly powerful. Normally, it would take at least one or two days for a city like this, which has been flooded, to drain all the water. But as soon as the tide receded to the low dike, the once wet East Sea War City was only filled with shallow water, as if it had just rained. It was not flooded to a depth of ten meters at all!
The neighborhood was destroyed quickly, but it was also rebuilt just as fast. Once peacetime began, Military Mage would immediately appear along the dike to guard against any sirens that might launch Sea Monster attack. The cleanup team made rapid progress, clearing all the ruins before nightfall and collecting all the Sea Monster's corpses.
The corpses of Demon Beast are human wealth. After all, most of the territory outside the city is occupied by Demon Beast, and they possess far more resources than humans. They absorb this energy to achieve their physical strength, which means that their corpses are rich in the essence of nature.
What drives the magical civilization of humankind worldwide, besides the energy Magic Stone mined from nature, is mostly Demon Beast. Demon Beast themselves are mobile mines that have absorbed countless energies!
All the corpses belong to the district lord, and someone will keep track of how many Demon Beasts each district team killed.
As for the National Team, they weren't really concerned about this issue. They just wanted to go back to their lodgings, take a hot shower, and then have a good night's sleep in their dry, comfortable beds.
Of course, Tang Miao was an exception; he left as soon as the Sea Monster began to retreat.
Such a massive battle must have resulted in numerous mages dying or being wounded. However, the number of Demon Beast killed or wounded would undoubtedly be even greater. What he needs to do now is naturally to collect a wave of Remnant Soul!
If you're lucky, it's not impossible to find a Spirit Essence.
There was no way around it; Tang Miao was more desperate for money than anyone else. Without resorting to bribery, the meager resources the Nationalist government provided were barely enough...
