On the other side.
Fang Yu did not participate in the outdoor training.
Because for him, the outdoor training was useless and a waste of energy.
As for the final reward, the magic tool, he already had one. As for real combat against demon beasts and honing his magic.
Fang Yu had taken part in the City Hunter Team's operations, eliminating demon beasts within the city.
Western District of Bo City.
Fang Yu stepped into the sewer.
As long as one was not at the deepest section, the sewers extended in all directions.
Walking inside, he did not see anyone else along the way. As for the other members of the City Hunter Team, he had no idea where they were.
He moved forward step by step, orderly and steady.
After a long while.
Along the way, he felt a trace of heat.
It was because further ahead there was an exit, another way out.
"The aftershock of magic? Has the battle already begun outside?"
Fang Yu stopped thinking and quickly headed outward.
He moved swiftly. The exit was right before him. But the moment he approached, he sensed something was wrong.
Suddenly, a claw slashed toward his neck.
Its speed and strength were astonishing.
In an instant.
Fang Yu locked onto a sickle-shaped imprint within his spiritual world. At once, a ghostly soul light burst forth from his body.
The ghostly light rapidly outlined itself, forming a three-dimensional rhombus-shaped shield taller than a person.
When the light shone at its brightest, a dark cyan, sharply angular bone shield materialized before him.
A magic tool, Bone Shield!
Clang!
The Bone Shield blocked the attack. Immediately, Fang Yu's magic energy surged as a silver Star Path of the Spatial element was drawn.
"Telekinesis · Qi Shield!"
With a bang, the attacker was blasted backward.
Without the slightest pause, Fang Yu's magic energy surged again, blue brilliance blooming.
"Ice Spread · Freeze!"
Wild snow descended, bone-chilling cold.
The powerful attack froze the opponent. In that instant, Fang Yu saw clearly, it was a Giant-Eyed Rat.
The creature also saw him. The moment their eyes met, Fang Yu had already arrived before it.
With a tremor of thought, spatial power enveloped the ice suspended midair, condensing it into an ice sword that plunged down from its neck.
The ice blade fell, blood spurted, leaving the creature no chance to react.
The Giant-Eyed Rat stared at Fang Yu in disbelief.
In just one exchange, It had not even managed to launch a second strike before collapsing lifeless to the ground.
Fang Yu dispatched the Giant-Eyed Rat at extreme speed, not daring to hesitate in the slightest, and immediately began scanning his surroundings.
The sudden appearance of the Giant-Eyed Rat meant there could be more demon beasts.
If a stronger one emerged, he was not certain he could suppress it.
Although the battle had been brief, the consumption was not light.
After waiting a while and confirming there were no more enemies, he harvested the materials from the Giant-Eyed Rat.
Finally, he stored them in his spatial ring.
After finishing this, Fang Yu headed toward the exit ahead.
A moment later.
He looked at the opening and sensed fluctuations of power outside.
Extremely intense.
Boom!
Wind and sand surged in, blowing through the exit.
Without hesitation, Fang Yu stepped out.
As a member of the City Hunter Team, it was his duty to eliminate demon beasts within the city.
This time, his teammates had discovered demon activity. Upon receiving the notice, he had rushed over from his residence.
Once outside, Fang Yu confirmed the location. This was still within the safety boundary of Bo City, though it was at the edge.
Before him lay a street. When he looked up ahead, he saw overwhelming magic bombarding in continuous waves.
After waiting a moment, the smoke and dust dispersed.
At that instant.
A One-Eyed Magical Wolf charged out, less than twenty meters away from a man dressed in black.
That was the captain of the City Hunter Team, Shao Shan.
Those twenty meters, the One-Eyed Magical Wolf could cross them in less than a second.
"Troublesome!"
Shao Shan took a deep breath, easing the pain in his body from the fight, already preparing to control his Fire element Star Path.
"Ice Spread · Enshroud!"
Just as Shao Shan had controlled three Fire stars, a man's sharp shout came from not far away.
A wave of frost instantly flooded the old street, and without warning, icy crystals drifted down through the air…
These crystals formed a command, rapidly gathering beneath the One-Eyed Magical Wolf's feet, freezing the entire patch of ground around it into solid ice.
The frost continued to spread, climbing along the wolf's powerful legs. In mere seconds, its lower limbs were frozen into solid ice.
Wearing a dark blue shirt, Fang Yu stood proudly amid the snow and ice, closing in at great speed.
"Sorry, I'm late."
"Not late. If you hadn't shown up in time, I'd have been in danger."
"Where are the others?"
"Pei Bin's chest was torn open. I stayed behind to cover the rear while the remaining members escorted him away for treatment and notified reinforcements."
"Understood."
"Captain, you recover first. Leave the rest to me. I'll finish this beast off!"
Fang Yu approached the One-Eyed Magic Wolf that had already been frozen in ice and snow.
The creature's single eye flickered with shock and fear. It wanted to flee.
The instant he sensed its intent, the frost around Fang Yu surged even more fiercely. At the same time, his will spread outward, gathering the ice and snow into a sword. In midair, an ice blade locked onto the One-Eyed Magic Wolf.
It had no way to evade and could only flash its lone eye, attempting to unleash a demonic technique.
But Fang Yu suppressed it with overwhelming force and momentum.
The ice sword fell from the air, slashing down in a single strike. Sensing the terrifying power of the attack, the One-Eyed Magic Wolf could not believe it.
Just moments ago, it had been ready to kill that human. Yet another person had suddenly appeared, someone so powerful it inspired dread.
Boom!
The ice sword cleaved down, and the One-Eyed Magic Wolf lost the ability to think.
"It's over."
Those were the last words it heard.
In an instant, bright red blood gushed out.
A few drops splattered onto Fang Yu's clothes.
Just then, reinforcements arrived.
Military mages appeared on the street.
Shao Shan immediately spoke to one of the Military Mages, "I think we should sound the alarm. The frequency of demons appearing in the city has been getting higher. That's not normal."
"Our military is already discussing it with the Magic Association and the Hunter's Union. They're considering the matter. But we only sounded the alarm not long ago. If we do it again so soon, it could easily cause panic," the Military Mage replied.
"A One-Eyed Magic Wolf, something that shouldn't even appear inside the city has shown up, I have a bad feeling something worse is coming," Shao Shan said.
"Don't worry. We're already investigating and continuously increasing patrols to maintain public security. As for certain unusual incidents we can't cover, we'll have to rely on your Hunter Squad to put in more effort," the Military Mage said.
"We'll naturally do our best. It's just that one of our members is seriously injured, so our operations…" Shao Shan said.
"I'll assign an Earth Element mage to temporarily fill in until your member recovers. By the way, when did your Hunter Squad add a new member? And such a powerful mage at that?" The Military Mage smiled as he glanced at Fang Yu.
"We recruited him."
"Recruited?"
The Military Mage was taken aback.
Shao Shan chuckled, his gaze drifting toward Fang Yu.
Fang Yu's performance had truly been astonishing.
The One-Eyed Magic Wolf couldn't withstand even two strikes from him. Shao Shan felt fortunate to have found such a powerful mage willing to run around the city with their squad.
Standing nearby, Fang Yu remained calm in the face of the praise.
His gaze was deep as he looked at the corpse of the One-Eyed Magic Wolf, lost in thought.
Even though the hunters were working tirelessly to exterminate them, the frequency of demon encounters was still increasing.
That could only mean that Black Vatican was making its move.
The plan to destroy Bo City was drawing closer.
"We can only take it one step at a time."
Fang Yu let out a long sigh.
The disturbance caused by the One-Eyed Magic Wolf subsided.
Afterward, Fang Yu stored the corpse of the One-Eyed Magic Wolf, bade farewell to Shao Shan, and left on his own.
