Versatile Mage

Liu Ru stepped aside and spread her arms. The strange mystical wings on her back extended out.

She flew to the abandoned car park, sticking close to the ground.

Lehuo Town was severely polluted, as it was an industrial area. To the west of the town was a huge scrap iron factory. Half of the town was piled up with scrapped cars, motorbikes, and machinery from huge cities like Shanghai, Suzhou, and Hangzhou.

In the other direction stood Lu Kun’s property, Prison Mountain.

The scrap factory was relatively normal. A relative of the Zhao Family was probably managing it. Compared to Prison Mountain, it was in utter chaos. The workers were lazy, and it was unlikely that anyone was still at work past midnight.

Liu Ru had chosen it because she was worried the Duke of Syam might endanger the lives of the residents. She was unable to stop the elder of the Blood Tribe from drawing blood from the local residents.

He was able to drink the blood of every person he had hypnotized within two kilometers. The ability’s area of effect was shocking.

It was like installing a tube into everyone to draw their blood, but since the rate was extremely low, the people would not be in danger for the first few hours.

That being said, she could not afford to let the bats do their job. The bats were able to drink human blood rapidly and spread diseases through the wounds they inflicted.

“Liu Ru, is the area with the scrap factory deserted?” Mo Fan asked her.

“There aren’t many people, but you should ask the City Hunters to seal off the area as a safety precaution,” Liu Ru replied.

Mo Fan nodded.

He could not afford to start a fight on the street since it was no different from throwing grenades around in a residential area. It was the only reason Mo Fan had given Lu Kun and the Duke of Syam so much time to speak.

Luckily, Lu Kun had chosen to be a high-level tyrant. He could not care less about the residents’ safety, but if too many lives were lost, it would attract a lot of Mages who were not affiliated with the Enforcement Union.

He had a business to manage. Once he took care of Mo Fan, he had ways to clean up the mess and retain his disguise as a successful entrepreneur. However, if large numbers of the residents were killed, his disguise would quickly be revealed.

It was not yet the time for him to throw away his disguise!

Mo Fan backed away to the area with scrapped cars. Lu Kun went after him. They no longer had to worry about hurting innocent people.

“Telekinesis!” Mo Fan used his Space Magic.

The rusted cars in the junkyard began to vibrate, producing piercing clanks.

Lu Kun had a blood-red shadow behind him as he arrived. Mo Fan’s eyes were already emitting a strong silver light by the time Lu Kun saw him.

Most shockingly, the heavy junked cars, scraps, and spare parts were floating in the air around him.

There was nothing supporting the objects, nor was there heavy machinery to lift the junkers up, but the rusted cars were circling Mo Fan like he was manipulating a magnetic field!

A Chevrolet Enjoy flew at Lu Kun with a loud rumble!

Lu Kun took half a step back. The car dove straight into the ground and snapped in half like a sword, a clear display of the momentum it held!

More scrapped cars were falling down at Lu Kun. The spot he was standing on was enjoying a rain of cars with spare parts scattered in the sky and tires flying around.

Lu Kun crossed his arms in front of him. His demonic red Aura formed a special barrier that tore everything that touched it into pieces. It was impossible to identify the model of the destroyed cars!

“Go!” Mo Fan set his eyes on a crane!

The crane’s hoist swung wildly and hit Lu Kun right through the rain of scraps. It broke the red Barrier in front of Lu Kun and sent him flying.

“Wrecking balls!” Mo Fan’s eyes glittered.

There were a few wrecking balls nearby being used to flatten the cars.

The three wrecking balls were lifted off the ground before flying at the spot Lu Kun was falling on in series.

Lu Kun crawled to his feet with bloodshot eyes.

He reached out his claw and swung it around, slicing the three metal wrecking balls apart like they were just meatballs!

“Such a boring trick!” Lu Kun shouted disdainfully. “Acid Fountain!”

Lu Kun opened his mouth and started spitting out a pillar of water like a fountain in a park.

The corrosive blood-red liquid spread in all directions after it reached its highest point.

Some of it fell on a piece of iron, and melted it instantly!

Normally, a corrosive acid could only damage leather products, but Lu Kun’s Acid Fountain could even melt through metal. If it was sprayed on a living human, not even the bones and teeth would survive!

Mo Fan was treating the scrapped cars as his weapons. The abundant supply of scrapped cars in the junkyard could pose a threat to even a Ruler-level creature.

To his surprise, Lu Kun was able to spit out an acid that could melt away metal. There was only soil and the stinky melted metal goo left in no time. The area felt a lot more spacious than before.

“So you can control objects, right?” Lu Kun burst out laughing.

Mo Fan did not know why Lu Kun was feeling so proud of himself. He was only probing Lu Kun’s strength during this first round. It was not like Lu Kun was overwhelmingly stronger than him.

The outcome might be different if Lu Kun had eaten the evil fruit in Prison Mountain.

“Slaughtering Wind Slash!” a Mage suddenly yelled from a thousand meters away.

Mo Fan was overjoyed. He did not expect the South Wing Platoon to arrive so quickly. The man might be able to ease his burdens a little.

However, Mo Fan was startled when he noticed the Slaughtering Wind Slash was coming at him! He quickly dodged to the side.

The Slaughtering Wind Slash was shockingly powerful. It almost sliced the junkyard in half even though it was coming from a thousand meters away.

The junkyard was piled with scrapped cars that had not been melted by Lu Kun’s Acid Fountain. The Slaughtering Wind Slash ended up shoving the cars to the side like two waves of metal!

The strong wind left a few cuts on Mo Fan, even though he managed to dodge the critical hit. His clothes were ragged and stained with blood from his wounds.

“I can control humans!” Lu Kun laughed hysterically.

Mo Fan noticed the Wind Mage was wearing the uniform of a prison guard after taking a close look. It was one of the prison guards whose mind was being controlled in Prison Mountain, a very strong Wind Mage.

“You have committed a serious offense, as you attempted to destroy Prison Mountain and release the criminals in it. I don’t care who you are, but I have the right to execute you on the spot!” the prison guard shouted at him.

Mo Fan frowned.

It sounded like Lu Kun had even sorted everything out. No one would know what happened if he died here!
