Versatile Mage: Demon Mage

Chapter 392 Wartime Command
In just half an hour, under the charge of the summoned beasts and with the assistance of attacks from all sides, thousands of underworld trackers were wiped out.

At the invitation of Staff Officer Bin Wei, Wang Teng brought Lingling to the meeting room of Zhenbei Pass, accompanied by Zhao Manyan and Staff Officer Bin's adjutant.

"Thank you very much for the help of Councillor Wang Teng this time!"

After Staff Officer Bin ordered the remaining mages to clean up the battlefield, he returned. It was obvious that receiving the congressman was more important than that matter.

"You're welcome~ I only knew about this crisis in Beiyuan after receiving a notification from the chief."

"However, the actual situation is a little beyond my expectations. Now this matter may just be the beginning." Wang Teng took the hot tea handed over by the adjutant and took a sip.

"You also think this matter is not simple, right?" Lingling seemed to have found a soulmate. She had always had a very bad premonition.

"If the councillors have any speculations about this matter, please speak up. We are all the top officials here."

Staff Officer Bin's heart suddenly skipped a beat and she had a very bad feeling. She felt that what Wang Teng was going to say next was definitely not a good thing.

"Let me ask you a question. In the demon world where bloodline is absolute, what kind of existence can use the monarch-level Hades Frog as a slave?" Wang Teng put down his teacup and looked at the group of people.

This……

Binwei seemed to have thought of something, his heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly felt sweaty, with fine beads of sweat oozing out of his forehead.

"You mean... the Emperor?!!!"

Zhao Manyan's expression became serious at this moment, his eyes moving rapidly, as if he was thinking about the possibility of this situation.

Wang Teng looked at Zhao Manyan in surprise. He didn't expect that you actually knew about the existence of the emperor. He thought this guy had not yet reached this level.

“Don’t look at me. I just heard some rumors from the priests at home.” Zhao Manyan quickly waved his hands to explain.

Wang Teng smiled and didn't care whether what he said was true or false, and then continued: "There are very few pyramids of this specification in the entire Egyptian mausoleum. If nothing unexpected happens, it must be the Pyramid of Khufu."

"Pyramids of this level usually don't move randomly, so those rats in the dark must have used some method to lure it here."

"This style of behavior is exactly the same as that crazy Saran!"

After Wang Teng finished speaking, he took another sip of tea and felt that it tasted quite good.

He was too lazy to play any guessing games with this group of people and just made speculations based on what he saw and heard.

"Is this...impossible?"

"If that's the case, let's run!" Zhao Manyan's voice was trembling. He didn't think Wang Teng could deal with a monster like Khufu.

"If you want to leave, you can leave at any time. We will not leave, and we cannot leave!" said Staff Officer Bin in a firm tone.

Behind the fortress, there are millions of people being evacuated. If the fortress cannot hold out, the consequences will be unpredictable.

I've refunded this time, but what about next time? Will I refund again?

There will come a day when you have no room to retreat. Will you still have the courage to fight back on that day?

"Wang Teng~ You should be able to find a way~" Lingling asked in a low voice with a worried look on her face, fearing that she would hear an answer she didn't want to hear.

Others might have doubts about Wang Teng, but she wouldn't.

She already had a premonition, and now that Wang Teng spoke, she understood where her worries came from.

"Of course there is a way..." Wang Teng still had a confident and calm expression, as if even the emperor could not move him.

"Just tell me, just tell me..." Lingling asked impatiently, and even walked up to him and grabbed his hand.

Staff Officer Bin, her adjutant, and Zhao Manyan also looked over with hope.

Wang Teng hesitated for a moment and began to think about whether he should speak out in public. After all, he needed the ancient king to come and drive Khufu out of the pyramid. Only in this way would he have a chance to steal the chicken. Otherwise, there would be no chance of stealing the chicken at all. The other party would just sit inside the pyramid and watch the undead under his command rush forward without thinking.

"I can't tell you about this for now. Also, don't mention today's conversation outside. Otherwise, it's unclear whether this thing will succeed."

"Colonel Bin, you can arrange for the evacuation of non-combatants in advance. Also, there is no need for mages below the intermediate level to stay here. This fortress will not last long."

"Based on past examples, it will only take four or five days at most..."

"Whether we can stop it or not, the aftermath of this battle will easily destroy this fortress."

"If you can't make a decision, you can use my name, and I will be responsible for the decision later." Wang Teng said calmly.

With his current status as a member of the Forbidden City Court, he already possesses sufficient qualifications.

Even in such major national security incidents, his wartime command authority is higher than that of the staff commander of the garrison.

"Yes~ Senator Wang Teng!" Staff Officer Bin immediately understood what Wang Teng meant. This was the other party exercising the highest wartime command authority.

She turned and left the conference room with her adjutant. It would be more credible to hear four or even three days as four or five days. Generally speaking, situations will not develop according to the best scenario.

The reason why she did not reject this proposal was that she also believed that the other party's judgment was well-reasoned and not groundless.

As a court councilor, the other party was much better than her in combat assessment. She would not argue about this, as such behavior was meaningless.

The other party handled things so clearly and methodically, which gave her a very credible demeanor.

Having three days to evacuate was pretty good, and it was enough time for her to make arrangements. After all, the fortress was mostly staffed by mages, who were much more obedient than ordinary people, knew the fortress was dangerous, and ran the fastest.

Gulu~

Zhao Manyan swallowed his saliva. He didn't expect that such a major decision would be made in such a short time.

"Old Zhao, you should have contacted Mo Fan, right?"

Zhao Manyan immediately came to his senses and replied, "Yes!"

"Well, let him come see me when he has time. I have something to tell him."

……

The entire fortress city was shaken quickly. The news that it could fall at any time spread, and some merchants and mages had already fled the fortress overnight.

Staff Officer Bin then passed the message down in the form of an order that non-combat personnel could evacuate the fortress, and mages below the intermediate level could also evacuate.

All retreated to Feihuang City in the rear, and the retreating military mages also needed to assist the royal guards mages in evacuating the people.

This order was a wartime order, signed by both Staff Officer Bin and Councillor Wang Teng.

Late at night.

A black shadow flashed quickly from the wild and entered the fortress with ease.

In a room on the top fifth floor of a building close to the city wall, Wang Teng was sitting alone on a cushion with his eyes closed, practicing.

There are many unique aspects in the forbidden spell level, and he needs to hurry up and familiarize himself with them.

In particular, he needs to think about the best way to steal the chicken from the Pharaoh, and everything here serves this goal.

The shadow seemed to smell the scent, found the location accurately, and quickly entered through the crack in the door. A figure slowly appeared.

"I didn't expect you to come so quickly!" Wang Teng suddenly opened his eyes, saw through the shadows, and looked directly at the hidden figure.
