1544 Capturing the Major General (2/2)
The three decisively retreated, bringing Apas and the major general along. Waves of spells kept chasing after them. Mu Bai and Heidi stayed close to Mo Fan to defend him.
The two were injured too, mainly due to the overwhelming numbers of enemies they had to face. On top of that, the Shadow Mages, Wind Mages, and Earth Mages were extremely cunning. These Mages kept troubling them while they were casting their spells, so they were unable to use most of their spells.
”Mu Bai, I'm going to use Blink!” Heidi exclaimed when she sensed an enormous energy of the Fire Element surging at them from behind.
”It's a Fiery Fist enchanted by a magic formation!” Mu Bai was shocked. The Battlemages were stronger than they had expected. They were seriously injured by the Enormous White Wolves and the lightning explosion, yet they could still cast such a powerful spell!
Mu Bai had already slowed down; he was slightly behind Mo Fan and Heidi. He spread his will in the air and summoned ice crystals like diamonds across the area.
The ice diamonds appeared rhythmically. They combined into polygons and swiftly formed a thick ice mirror in the sandpit that Mu Bai was locking his gaze on!
The ice polygons perfectly merged together, turning into a towering, magnificent ice shield with the shape of an octagon.
The Fiery Fist enchanted by the magic formation landed right on the ice, dying the icy shield blazing red.
The icy shield was extremely sturdy. It did not have the slightest crack even after the enormous impact of the scorching flames. It even put out the flames that were spreading across it, giving Heidi enough time to Channel her spell.
”Blink!” Heidi was relieved. She began constructing a bigger Star Constellation.
Silver brilliance encapsulated the other four people. As the light reached its peak, crystalline dust sprinkled in the air and melted before it touched the ground.
The following second, the five reappeared a great distance away. Mo Fan turned around and saw Mu Bai's ice shield was still in place. It bought Mo Fan enough time to Channel a spell!
”My turn,” Mo Fan said.
The spells cast by Fire Mages, Ice Mages, Wind Mages, and a few Lightning Mages never ceased. Those spells were not very strong on their own. In fact, Mo Fan and his crew could easily dodge them, but when the spells combined into a colorful rain pouring down from the sky, it was definitely not enjoyable to stay under it. More wounds were inflicted on Mu Bai and Heidi, while an icicle stabbed Mo Fan in the back when he was trying to protect Apas. The wound inflicted by the Ice Magic worsened rapidly.
Mo Fan took over and cast Blink. The five people once again moved a great distance away from the Battlemages.
The enemy's numbers might be overwhelming, putting Mo Fan and his crew under great pressure, but there was a downside, too; the enemy was unable to move conveniently while maintaining their formation!

After Blinking away twice, the group of five was finally out of range of the enemy's spells. They sprinted a few hundred meters away, and completely lost sight of the Egyptian soldiers.
”Just surrender, and we might consider going easy on you. Let me go and hand over the young Medusa, and we'll treat like nothing has ever happened!... Your repulsive behavior is going against the will of the Egyptian army, and most people that do so ended up dying horrible deaths!” Major General Gangma threatened them.
The guy's skin was no longer intact after being caught in Mo Fan's lighting explosion, either scorched or blistered. In terms of strength, he did not even reach a tenth of Captain Saks' level.
There were indeed high-rank authorities in the military who did not possess remarkable strength. Mo Fan had noticed Saks asking the guy for his opinion with his head lowered previously. Therefore, he had set his eyes on the man after detonating the lightning explosion. It was the only way to guarantee Zhao Manyan's safety, since the Egyptian army might well kill them all to conceal their crimes!
Mo Fan slapped the general in the face without showing any mercy.
Gangma's face was already scorched by lightning. Mo Fan's slap almost ruined his face completely.
Mo Fan had seen all kinds of authorities. He was daring enough to kick anyone that he found to be an eyesore regardless of their status in his country, yet a mere general in Egypt dared to act high and mighty in front of him!?
”You little b**ch, why don't you go to war and kill the enemies if you have the time to fool around with us? Feeding innocent girls to the Medusae? You dare to call yourself a soldier doing something like that?” Mo Fan was not done yet. He slapped the guy on the other side of his face, so both sides were symmetrical!
Mo Fan did not even have to rely on his magic. The strength provided by his demon flesh was enough to knock two teeth from Gangma's mouth!
”HAHAHA, I don't care who you are, but I promise you that you will never leave Egypt alive! You have no idea who you are messing with!” Gangma was not willing to yield either. He continued to threaten Mo Fan after he was beaten up.
”Mo Fan, let me give him a few punches too, once we are in a safer spot,” Mu Bai was enraged by the man's attitude too!
”Once we rescued Old Zhao, we'll bury this scum alive somewhere, so he will know what it feels like to be eaten alive by mummies!” Mo Fan agreed.
