1508 Scorpion Queen
Edited by Aelryinth
Mo Fan did not stay and fight overzealously. He was currently in the middle of a battle. It was fine if he did not partic.i.p.ate in the fighting, but once he crossed the line by killing too many weaklings, some stronger demon creatures would eventually show up to take him out!
Mo Fan quickly caught up to the group that Brianca was leading. The army had finally shown up when they reached the building to the west of the airport.
“What about the powerful creature behind us?” Booker asked worriedly.
A dark mist was building behind them. They could barely see a thing through the darkness. However, Booker could already feel a strong presence sweeping at them like a black storm, sending chills down his spine and making him s.h.i.+ver in fear.
Words were not needed to describe how powerful the demon creature was. Even a great Commander-level beast like the Flying Creek Snow Wolf was fleeing for his life!…
“It shouldn’t be a Ruler-level creature. Otherwise, there’s no way my wolves would have made it out alive. If it isn’t a Ruler-level creature, it won’t dare to do anything reckless,” Mo Fan said.
A Commander-level creature in the Advancing Period was just as terrifying. Little Flame Belle’s strength of the peak Commander-level was on par with an Advancing Commander-level creature. Mo Fan would not bother to challenge it. If he was poisoned and paralyzed accidentally, his death would take the blink of an eye!
Similarly, the creature that had intimidated the pack of wolves did not show itself right away, either, hiding inside the poisonous mist. It was not afraid of an Advanced Mage like Mo Fan, but it could sense the Super Level Brianca.
Brianca had also sensed the powerful demon creature’s existence. Her eyes never left the mist after she led the pa.s.sengers to safety.
Mo Fan was not able to see the creature, but Brianca could already see its silhouette. She knew the creature was staring at her, too!
The black storm continued to surge at them. More Crawlers charged at them recklessly. The various lamias had suddenly become cannon fodder, surging at them in huge numbers. Those weaklings had no place in Brianca’s eyes after she no longer had to worry about the pa.s.sengers’ safety. Her straight hair drifted in the wind; every Mage with sharp senses would s.h.i.+ver in fear despite themselves under the enormous pressure, but Brianca’s sharp gaze stopped the Crawlers and the Lamias from coming any closer!
Some time later, the contesting auras suddenly dissipated. Mo Fan noticed the dark mist fading away slightly. He caught a glimpse of the back of a red scorpion woman with six limbs fading into the distance!
A Red Scorpion?
Mo Fan was astounded. He initially thought the creature was an Advancing Commander-level creature, so the Flying Creek Snow Wolf and the other wolves were no match against it. However, it turned out to be a Red Scorpion Queen instead! It was a Ruler-level species!
Mo Fan went up to Brianca and asked worriedly, “A Ruler-level creature?”
Luckily, he was decisive when it came to running away. He would most likely die if the Ruler-level creature ambushed him. The Flying Creek Snow Wolf’s presence must have attracted the creature’s attention, since the best nutrition for a Ruler-level creature was none other than Commander-level creatures!
“It’s not, but it’s pretty close,” Brianca said.
“It’s a young Red Scorpion Queen, right? I noticed that it was a lot smaller than a mature one,” Mo Fan speculated.
“Mmm, it will become a Ruler-level creature eventually. I was considering taking it out first,” Brianca glanced at the pa.s.sengers that were being escorted away.
Brianca might have initiated a fight if it weren’t for the civilians nearby. Killing a Red Scorpion Queen would bring a city years of tranquility and peace. Brianca would not have any trouble killing it with her strength!
“Forget it. If a little Scorpion Queen has shown up here, it means a real Scorpion Queen isn’t far away, either. If we did kill it, New Suez would suffer the consequences,” Mo Fan said.
The medusae and gorgons were overpopulated, so their rulers would send them away to invade human territory for resources, while also reducing their numbers to prevent them from killing their own kind. As a result, it was unlikely for the medusae and gorgons to send their entire army to battle. It was a very common situation in a lot of countries across the world…
However, if the kin of the rulers died, some vengeful species might send their entire army to attack a human city. They would only be satisfied after annihilating the whole place. The medusae and gorgons were among the most vengeful species, so as soon as Mo Fan knew it was a young Scorpion Queen, he would have stopped Brianca from killing it.
If they were not prepared to kill the Scorpion Queen, it was better to avoid crossing paths with her kin!
Brianca quickly realized the situation after hearing Mo Fan’s words. She was not as knowledgeable as Mo Fan when it came to dealing with demon creatures.
She nodded and said, “The pa.s.sengers are safe now, we should leave this place too.”
——
Mo Fan, Mu Bai, Zhao Manyan, Brianca, and Heidi were strong enough to protect themselves and escort the pa.s.sengers to safety. If some ordinary Advanced Mages were in their shoes, they might still be able to escort the pa.s.sengers to safety, but there would surely have been casualties!
“Isn’t this Meos? Since when are you working airport security?” Mo Fan recognized a female Mage in scaled armor among the soldiers.
Meos was going to thank the powerful Mages who had helped ensure the safety of the pa.s.sengers, but her expression darkened immediately when she saw Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan.
If it wasn’t for them, Egypt would have won the World College Tournament!
“What are you two doing here!?” Meos said with an unwelcoming look.
“We have been invited by General Fenna to help resolve the difficulties that your country is facing. Such a coincidence, we even saved more than a hundred of your citizens as soon as we landed. We are truly your benefactors!” Mo Fan smiled back.
“All the pa.s.sengers are here. The cabin crew and pilots are here too…” a Battlemage quickly counted the pa.s.sengers.
“Humph, we would have ended up as a pile of bones by now if we had waited for you guys to show up!”
“I won’t be taking your company’s flight ever again!”
“Let’s hurry up and leave this place…”
Meos was the representative of EgyptAir. She was not feeling pleasant after being condemned by the pa.s.sengers.
However, they had made a grave mistake with the landing. The pilot had landed the plane at the wrong lane due to a serious miscommunication!…
——
After leaving the battlefield, they were given a ride to New Suez by the military. New Suez was blooming as usual, as if the battle occurring a few dozen kilometers away was none of its concern. The people were acting as if the army of medusae and gorgons would never break through the defense of their army.
“Mo Fan, I almost forgot you are a Summoner, too!” She was seated beside Mo Fan.
“I guess I’m a special kind of Summoner,” Mo Fan smiled. Little Flame Belle had the ability to Possess him. Most of the time, Mo Fan would transform into a fiery demon king with Little Flame Belle’s help and completely forget about his other Summoning Spells.
“I was wondering how I should thank you for your help. I think there’s a magic tool that’s perfect for you,” Brianca went on.
