Mo Fan followed Apas’ suggestion and tried to order the Rock Monsters to stop invading the city and retreat to their caves.
Mo Fan let out a few roars, reaching every Rock Monster in the city.
The Rock Monsters stood there to listen. The slow-witted creatures exchanged glances with one another: What was their king up to?
Apas rolled her eyes when she heard Mo Fan’s roars. How did she end up with such a retarded master? He had no clue how to speak the rock demons’ language. He was simply roaring like an ape. Who would know what he was trying to convey?
“I’ll communicate with them instead!” Apas seriously could not stand seeing Mo Fan embarrassing himself like a total fool. She took over the Golden-Armored Wolframite Demon’s voice and gave the proper orders to the Rock Monsters.
The Rock Monsters finally understood their king’s commands, and began to withdraw from the city.
“Remember to ask them to leave the Mages they absorbed behind, instead of bringing them to the caves. Otherwise, we will need to send someone to retrieve them!” Mo Fan said.
The Rock Monsters retreated from the city. Their bodies degenerated as they reached the ramparts.
The numbers of the rock demons were absolutely shocking. They were lined up in rows when they shed their thick rock armor to reveal their true appearance.
The creatures were just some Mud Morphing Monsters. As the Rock Monsters, Rock Generals, and Granite Beasts fully degraded, it felt like the rampart was being splashed with waves of mud. The mudslide fell like a tide, leaving unconscious Mages glittering like shells along the rampart.
The dawn the city was looking for finally arrived. The Battlemages and the rest of the people in the city remained still. They did not understand what had just happened.
Did the battle end already?
Did it just end like that?
They were already expecting the worst outcome, but everything was reversed in the blink of an eye. The Barrier, the Elemental Capital, the Mages that were absorbed, excluding the complete mess in the city…
“Everything changed after Mo Fan was absorbed by the Black-Silver Armored Rock Demon,” Deputy Lieutenant Hou said.
“That’s right, it’s Mo Fan!” Fang Di said.
“He must have done something. Otherwise, it didn’t make sense for him to engage the creature after he was already severely injured. He must have let the Black-Silver Armored Rock Demon absorb him on purpose. Awesome!”
Wen Xia thought the same. Xie Qinghua went up to her and said, “Let’s get closer.”
Xie Qinghua brought a group of people over to the Golden-Armored Wolframite Demon. It was moving away from the city, but it did not leave the city center. The people saw its body degrading rapidly. Mud kept falling to the ground, turning into Mud Morphing Monsters along its trail.
The Golden-Armored Wolframite Demon had completely melted away by the time it reached the edge of the Barrier. Mo Fan was left behind, covered in ashes and standing there feebly. He was surrounded by a lot of mud, which was oozing through the cracks and darkness nearby like parasites without a host.
“It really is Mo Fan!” Wen Xia exclaimed. Everyone immediately surrounded him in joy.
Mo Fan felt like he was full of power just a moment ago, like he could smash a mountain in half and split the sea with a stomp. However, he was now just like the Mages that had been rescued from the Rock Monsters, the strength of his body completely depleted.
Mo Fan saw the others coming up to him while he was still barely conscious. He soon fell to the ground and fainted.
