Mo Fan continued to watch the clips. He soon realized that the things he could learn from them were fairly limited.
He needed more time to recover his energy, but he could still study the Sea Skeleton King from far away without being involved in a fight. It would be more effective than surfing clips on Tiktok at home.
He left his apartment and headed out to meet up with Lingling and Jiang Shaoxu.
Zhao Manyan was injured while he was stopping more sea monsters from entering the Huangpu River. He would have to rest for a while.
Clips of Zhao Manyan’s brave actions were spreading among the students now. The jerk had managed to grab a lot of attention. Countless girls were smitten with him.
The more Mo Fan thought about it, the stronger he believed Zhao Manyan was the writer of the post about him. Once he defamed Mo Fan, he would be able to lay his hands on the beautiful juniors of the Pearl Institute as he pleased!
“Mu Bai isn’t coming either?” Jiang Shaoxu asked him, concerned.
“He’s one of the leaders of the South Wing Platoon. He’s currently busy going to different places helping the people. It’s better being a free man. I can rest when I want and help when I feel like it without any burden,” Mo Fan replied glibly.
Since he had not joined any organizations, he could just take some time off when he wanted, without being restricted by duty or obligations.
“When are you going earn the title of Senior Hunter? Otherwise, it will be hard for us to obtain the insider information we need!” Lingling berated him.
“Great idea, assuming the Magic City’s Hunter Union is still standing!” Mo Fan answered.

The battlefield and the city were only a dam apart. Streets full of pedestrians were located right below the dam.
It was not like the city was not evacuating the people to safety, but not many places were truly safe at the moment. Humanity’s safe zones had shrunk significantly. The cities were the safest places left!
Once the cities fell, they would find monster dens everywhere they went.
The dam was heavily guarded by soldiers. The Mages had lined up like a wall slightly higher than the dam. The Magic Barrier’s arc of protection ended just a little in front of the dam. It did not waste the slightest amount of space.
Flying creatures were occasionally spotted roving between the clouds and the sea. Most of them were creatures like vultures, who did not involve themselves in fights directly. They had their eyes fixed on the dead and the dying creatures, both humans and sea monsters.
The residents of the Magic City staying on higher floors could easily watch the battlefield. It was likely the successful people who liked to stay above everyone would be enjoying the scenic view with a glass of red wine in their hands.
“Have you fully recovered?” Jiang Shaoxu asked curiously.
“We are just taking a look on the outskirts. We aren’t going into it,” Mo Fan reminded. He was as useless without energy as any other mage.
“It won’t feel great just watching without getting into the action,” Jiang Shaoxu complained.
Lingling rolled her eyes at the two shameless people and shunned, “There’s still an underage here!”
“Lingling, you know too much.”
“The young girls are like this nowadays. They know a lot of stuff at a young age, unlike me. I still thought holding hands would make me pregnant when I was around the age of fifteen,” Jiang Shaoxu remarked.
“…”
Lingling activated the proper mode of ignoring everything around her, putting on an expressionless face. Whether the person was a human or a dog, she would just treat them like crying crows.
