Chapter 88 I Will Not Be a Deserter
The five-person team decided to continue deeper into the territory, and Hua Yu chose to follow them.
Today is his first time visiting this ancient city, and also the first time he has seen such a battlefield.
The ancient capital was a place Hua Yu had decided to visit long ago.
After spending a night in the wilderness with Yu Shishi, he booked a plane ticket and flew here the next day at daybreak.
The ancient capital has been somewhat unsettled lately, with the activities of the dead becoming more frequent.
Whether it was for this reason or not, the sky above the ancient capital was always gloomy, giving people an extremely oppressive feeling.
Having experienced the ancient capital's daytime life since arriving here, Hua Yu naturally didn't want to miss out on its "busy" nightlife.
He had originally planned to travel around by himself, but he happened to overhear Mu Bai and Zhou Min's conversation.
Hua Yu was extremely interested in Mu Bai.
This interest even surpassed his interest in Zhang Xiaohou and Zhao Manyan.
The more mediocre and disliked a character is in the early stages, the more amazing and lovable they become in the later stages.
This refers to the earliest known "green tea" man in the entire French world—Mu Bai!
However, Mu Bai's personality has not yet been fully transformed at this time. After experiencing the disaster in Bo City, he has changed a lot and become more composed, but he is still lacking in composure.
This is also why Hua Yu appeared in front of Mu Bai only to become familiar with him, and did not have much interaction with him.
Hua Yu's main purpose in coming here was to observe the differences in the fighting styles of the undead up close, in order to prepare for the battles to come.
Meeting Mu Bai was something completely unexpected.
"Which way?" Zhou Min asked.
"This way."
Based on his own judgment, Mu Bai chose the path to the left.
The number of dead on that road is the smallest.
Upon hearing Mu Bai's choice, Hua Yu couldn't help but raise her eyes, glance in that direction, and shake her head with amusement.
Why take this path when there are so many other options?
In the wild, a place where no demons gather is, in some ways, not a good thing.
It often means that there is a powerful creature there that other weaker creatures avoid.
After eliminating a few stray undead along the way, Mu Bai and his men quickly penetrated deep behind enemy lines.
Looking at the city wall receding into the distance, Zhou Min's face showed a hint of worry. She was just about to remind Mu Bai when she was interrupted by a noisy commotion ahead.
"Ugh... Ugh..."
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Amidst the howls of the undead, beams of magical light struggled desperately.
Ahead, a group was fighting against the undead, and based on this information alone, everyone could instantly tell that the group was at a disadvantage.
"Mu Bai, what do we do now?"
Mu Bai pondered for a moment, then said, "We can't avoid it now. We either turn back, or we have no choice but to move on."
"Let's go back. Judging from the cries, there are quite a few undead ahead," the water-elemental girl suggested, advocating for a retreat.
"No, I think we can give it a try. This is a great opportunity to earn points, and besides, there are..."
At this point, the wind mage suddenly stopped and glanced at Hua Yu.
His meaning was quite clear: he was saying that there was a high-level mage in the team, so what was there to be afraid of?
"Don't look at me, I won't help you, and I'm leaving," Hua Yu said.
Upon hearing this, the wind mage's expression changed.
Mu Bai didn't seem to care, but he glanced at Hua Yu and said, "Be careful."
Upon hearing this, Hua Yu couldn't help but smile. He waved to Mu Bai, and then a silver-white light flashed around him.
The silver constellation had just been completed when his figure disappeared from everyone's sight.
"So fast!"
Seeing Hua Yu's speed in depicting the constellations, Mu Bai's eyes revealed a deep sense of disbelief.
This release speed clearly indicates that the mage is not a newcomer who has just entered the high-level realm, but a veteran mage who has been deeply involved in the high-level realm for a long time.
If Mu Bai knew that Hua Yu had only been at the advanced level for two weeks, I wonder what he would think.

"Kun's Forest: The Prison!"
In this land of death, seeds were sown, bringing life to the land.
Immediately afterwards, a green ball of light burst forth from the ground.
Countless vines suddenly sprang up, entangling all the undead creatures in the vicinity.
The full power of the Kun Forest barely managed to trap those few warrior-level undead, but it only held them off for a short time. Before long, they would be able to break free.
The captain shoved the youngest member of the team aside and yelled, "Go, go, go! Don't look back!"
"I won't be a deserter!"
"What kind of bullshit deserter are you? There are no deserters on this land. Every one of us who survives is a life well-deserved. Now get out of here."
The young military mage stubbornly raised his head, refusing to leave.
The old captain was so angry that he kicked him in the butt and shouted, "San'er, take him away!"
In the group, a man with only one arm and his face wrapped in thick bandages grabbed the young mage with his remaining right hand and ran with him to the back.
No sooner had they left than the Kun Forest was destroyed!
It seemed to foreshadow the disappearance of the nascent vitality.
"Ugh~~~"
The many undead, who had been imprisoned for some time, became extremely agitated and let out a series of roars.
The five corpse generals took the lead, enduring the magical bombardment from the group of mages, and used their sharp claws to tear open the mages' abdomens.
"No!"
In the distance, the young mage, witnessing this scene, was filled with rage and struggled desperately in the hands of the one-armed man known as San'er.
At first, he had no way to break free.
But later, he gradually discovered that San'er's strength was decreasing. He was overjoyed and was about to exert his strength when he was thrown by a huge force and flew away into the distance.
"Thump!"
"Thump!"
Two sounds of landing rang out simultaneously.
The young mage quickly got up from the ground and saw a person in the distance with one arm hanging naturally at his sides, kneeling on both knees, and head bowed.
A clear red line of blood was visible behind him.
One end of the red line is in the distance, and the other end is under his feet!
Blood stained that land red, and it also stopped that beating heart!
Before they could clean up the battlefield, the five corpse generals led their army of rotting corpses toward the young mage.
"Die, all of you!"
"Lightning Seal. Wrathful Strike!"
The young mage's eyes were bloodshot. In just a few minutes, he watched his companions die one by one, which inevitably made him feel heartbroken, but it did not make him lose that thing called courage.
The weak lightning struck the corpse general, causing him no pain whatsoever.
The corpse general glanced at the young mage with a hint of mockery, then extended its sharp claws, ready to finish off its last prey.
"Gravity Zone!"
