Versatile Mage: Starting with the White Tiger Pendant

Chapter 45: Chapter 45: The Battle Against the Wolf Pack



Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

On the rooftop of the Silver Trading Building, an indeterminate amount of time had passed. Mo Fan stood with lightning and fire interweaving around him, radiating brilliance into the sky. Purple and red hues illuminated half the heavens, while his pupils reflected thunderclouds and crimson skies.

Breakthrough! Dual Element Intermediate Level 1!

Lu Jun couldn't help but feel envious, pondering whether his own White Tiger Pendant might still hold traces of totemic power. After graduating from university and traveling the world, perhaps it was time to seek out clues.

"Hahaha! Your Mo Fan has done it again! Dual-element intermediate level! Old Lu, I don't think I'm any worse than you now!"

Mo Fan checked his cultivation and, as the wind and rain subsided, felt reinvigorated with confidence.

Standing nearby, Lu Jun, having recovered most of his mana, splashed cold water on his enthusiasm. "Yeah, right. You haven't mastered the control of stars yet. Talk to me in a year when you can actually release intermediate spells, Mo Fan."

Hearing this, Mo Fan's face fell. Without any connection to Tang Yue, he didn't have access to Star Atlas Scrolls to assist with spellcasting. Even after breaking through to the intermediate level, he could only cast basic spells for now, albeit with greater endurance.

Turning to the two of them, Lu Jun issued instructions: "Captain Liang, take Mo Fan and return to the safe zone. While you're at it, clean up any remnants of the Black Vatican. I'll head to the border battlefield to provide support."

Neither of them objected. Mo Fan, in particular, felt an urgent need to return home after everything that had happened to check on his sister Xin Xia and his father.

"One more thing," Lu Jun said, glancing at Bai Yang, who was paralyzed on the ground. "Take this guy back for interrogation. Extract some information."

Privately, he regretted that only Bai Yang had shown up. Yu Ang hadn't dared to make an appearance, but with Bai Yang captured, figures like Mu He might remain stable. The rest of their network, however, was likely to be exposed—escaping monks would leave their temples behind.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

Summoning his Gold Heavy Sword, Lu Jun connected his mind to the stars without displaying his star atlas. Amid a tremor, the massive black-gold sword floating around him expanded ninefold in an instant, reaching a length of twelve meters.

With a light tap of his toes, Lu Jun's figure ascended, standing steadily atop the enormous black sword as if it were as solid as the ground itself.

In the next moment, with a sharp "whoosh," Lu Jun soared into the sky, a streak of platinum light disappearing into the rainy night, leaving behind powerful gusts of wind.

Witnessing this, Captain Liang and Mo Fan stood dumbfounded. Despite the numerous shocks they had already endured that day, they were left reeling by this display, exchanging disbelieving looks.

Captain Liang muttered, "Why does it feel like Lu Jun doesn't belong in our world?"

Mo Fan's face turned dark, seething with envy as he muttered, "That guy, Lu Jun, even manages to show off while leaving."

Determined, he swore to himself that he would one day obtain a magical tool capable of flying on a sword!

Meanwhile, back in the safe zone, people with phones raised were taking pictures and exclaiming in excitement. Whether a mage or a member of the Black Vatican, such events were usually far removed from their lives.

Today, they had witnessed it all: Lu Jun's sword flight, his battle against demons, massive waterfalls flooding streets, and the Black Vatican being crushed. Though they couldn't see his figure clearly, the spectacle alone was a treasure trove of material.

Many eagerly shared their photos and videos on social media platforms like WeChat Moments, Zhihu, Xiaohongshu, Douyin, and Weibo. News of the events in Bo City spread rapidly, and discussions about the figure of Lu Jun fighting two hundred Black Vatican members and demons went viral.

"Scarlet Alert: Official mages fighting evil, united as one! [Cheer] [Cheer]

"Asking for a friend, what do you do when you encounter a Scarlet Disaster in Bo City?"

"OMG, that swordsman in Bo City is so handsome! Such a sense of security. Don't ask why I'm calling him handsome—ladies, does anyone know how to contact him?"

...

Unbeknownst to Lu Jun, the event was still escalating in popularity. Meanwhile, he continued soaring through the sky on his sword for the first time, reveling in the freedom and exhilaration. Reciting a casual poem, he looked down at the rapidly receding landscape, the rain and wind rolling around him. His coat flapped violently in the wind, exuding an air of wild arrogance.

Though the experience was somewhat average, as the relentless rain and wind would have torn through his skin if not for his Water Element Defense, the sheer size of his wall-like sword kept him firmly grounded.

The speed was impressive—second only to the high-level wind magic Wings of the Wind.

Before long, Lu Jun spotted the battlefield in the distance. Waves of one-eyed wolves surged like a tide, covering the mountains and plains in a sea of green and black.

Both sides were locked in fierce combat, their eyes bloodshot.

One thousand military mages formed the backbone of the defense, unleashing synchronized Basic Elemental Spells. Brilliant flames and frost blasted out in waves, each volley taking out numerous monsters in showers of blood and gore.

Meanwhile, Other mages and monster hunters flanked the wolves from both sides, harassing and distracting them. Their lack of discipline made them ill-suited for front-line battle, but their skill made them valuable for such roles.

In the wilderness, flashes of dazzling light erupted as monsters attempting to break through were forced back by waves of Earth Waves, retreating several kilometers.

However, over a hundred Warrior-Class monsters remained unaffected, nearly reaching the front lines of the military mage formations.

The official and freelance intermediate mages began making their moves to stop them.

"Where's my sister?"

Flying high above, Lu Jun peered down at the chaos below. He wasn't too concerned for Lu Mei's safety—her dual-element wind and earth cultivation was at intermediate level 3, and her survival skills were top-notch. Unless a Commander-Class Wind Wolf intervened, there was no chance she'd be in danger.

At the edge of the battlefield, Lu Jun spotted the colossal Commander-Class Ruler Wolf, locked in a fierce aerial battle with a wind mage wielding Wings of the Wind.

Opting not to get involved, Lu Jun turned his focus back to the battlefield. His Psychic Magic led him to sense Lu Mei's presence amidst the chaos.

A towering Three-Eyed Demon Wolf, standing ten meters tall, roared as it charged toward a group of mages. Its immense momentum resembled a speeding truck, threatening to crush the formation.

Just as it was about to rip through the ranks, a thick yellow light surged, gathering vast Earth Element Energy.

Intermediate Spell: Rock Barrier - Stone Ridges!

Soon, layers of rolling earth waves converged into towering rock walls, rising fifteen meters high. Even the Warrior-Class Demon Wolf couldn't leap over them in time.

Boom!

A deafening crash resounded as the massive wolf collided with the cliff, its entire body rebounding from the impact. The barrier remained unscathed.

The walls didn't stop there—rock walls rose from all directions, forming a cage-like fortress. Even the formidable Warrior-Class Demon Wolf was tightly confined in a small corner.

In the distance, a cold, tall female mage pressed her hands to the ground before slowly standing up.

Over the past six months, Lu Mei had improved significantly. Her mastery of the Earth Element at intermediate level 3 far outclassed her level 1 abilities. Even without a Spirit Seed, she could contend with regular Warrior-Class Monsters.
