Chapter 97 Departure
"The cause of this incident is this: about 15 years ago, a very serious demon disaster occurred in our Dongting Lake area.

People at that time did not notice that the monsters near Dongting Lake had become excessively rampant and multiplying.

These rampant monsters began to attack the more remote Jinling.

Fortunately, there was a wizard who happened to encounter these monsters while training in the wild.

It was his early warning that gave Jinling City enough time to evacuate the people.

However, although no one was harmed in the end, the elf was still not saved and was instantly turned into ashes under the impact of a large number of monsters.

Now Jinling City has long been abandoned and has become the lair of monsters.

Because Jinling was completely destroyed by the monster, the city was wiped out from the map."

Dean Sun He introduced that, in fact, it was he who discovered the hidden danger that year, but he had never been proactive in publicizing this matter.

Or maybe what happened back then could have been done much better, but just to be on the safe side, everyone evacuated all the citizens first.

This incident also taught China a lesson, that is, to always pay attention to the movements of the monsters around.

After Dean Songhe introduced it this way, many students responded.

Because this incident was recorded in some books that were not completely public, after all, this kind of thing is shameful.

Therefore, this incident was not made public. Apart from those who experienced it personally, few people knew about the city of Jinling.

"So, is Jinling a deserted city? Then what are we going there for?"

"It is indeed a deserted city now. Ever since humans withdrew, it has become a paradise for demons. However, when the military sent mages to investigate a few months ago, they found that the number of demons there had obviously decreased a lot. There are no longer as many as when the attack first started."

Dean Fenghe explained.

"Wait, so we are not going to go to that place for training?"

"That's right, your mission this time is to go to the deserted city to collect data." Dean Songhe said slowly.

“You need to collect the current population of demon beasts. Although many of them have migrated, there are still a lot of demon beasts wandering around Jinling.

So I ask you to collect more detailed information as possible so that we can make an evaluation.

How many monsters are there, what are their types, how many are slaves, how many are generals? In short, you need to record a lot of data."

"Wait a minute, are we just recording data?"

Shen Ming smiled and asked.

He always felt that this task was not simple. At least it should not be as simple as statistical data. Statistical data would require so many mages to complete the task in the early stage.
"To be precise, the data you collected is one of the bases for our evaluation. We are required to make an estimate of whether Jinling City can be redeveloped. And your data is very important.

We need to use your data to determine the danger level of this city and whether we can now have the mages eliminate the monsters so that the citizens can move back."

After completing the mission of this training, Mo Fan suddenly felt overwhelmed.

This is not just ordinary statistics, because it does not require a rough estimate, but very detailed data, which means they need to conduct field surveys in multiple locations in the city.

The more locations they visited, the more times they would encounter monsters. This also meant that the risk factor would increase sharply.

The most troublesome thing is that if something goes wrong during this trip to Fangcheng, there will be no one to help, because after all, no one knows when these teachers will arrive.

If one of them accidentally walked into the monster's lair, they would be doomed and not even a trace of their body would be left.

"Wait, Dean Sun He, why didn't you ask us to count the commander-level monsters? Don't we need to count them?"

Luo Song replenished the knives on the side.

"Haha, if you can come back alive after encountering a monster of the same level, then I will consider your training a success."

The Dean of Comprehensive Department said this lightly, but his words not only made everyone present feel a little cold,
They are just mid-level mages. Wouldn't it be like sending yourself to death if you encounter a commander-level monster?
What kind of existence is the red bowtie monster? It is a monster that all high-level mages must take seriously. It takes at least two high-level mages to kill a commander-level monster. Those who can kill a commander-level monster alone are elite high-level mages.

These little eunuchs are already very outstanding for being able to survive against the same leader-level monsters. They can also count the opponent's data. If they encounter a commander-level monster, they should run for their lives.

As for whether this operation will encounter commander-level monsters, the probability is very high. Don't forget that this city used to be a deserted city and a nest of monsters. Since it is possible to attack such a city, there must be many commander-level monsters.

If there are one or two monsters of the same leader level who fail to leave, then their operation in the deserted city of Jinling City will be very dangerous.

"I know this operation is very dangerous, but if it's not dangerous, what's the point of training? So I require that the two schools must work together in this training activity.

Put aside any conflicts. Let's get through this difficult time first. Students, you must remember that you are training in the wild, not in the security world. If something goes wrong, no one will be able to rescue you in time.

The monsters and beasts in the wild will not attack you just because you belong to a noble family. You must remember this.

In this experience, the power of an individual is limited, so I hope you can cooperate sincerely, and finally wish you a safe return. I don't want to see any of your names on the death list. "

Jinling City is located in the middle and lower reaches of the Dongting Lake Plain.

Because of the unique geographical environment here, there are countless monsters living around.

It was precisely because of the large number of monsters and the favorable environment that the monster disaster 15 years ago occurred.

After getting off the bus in the nearest city, Mo Fan and his group began walking towards Jinling City.

Because Jinling was connected to other cities by rail, Mo Fan and his companions decided to follow the railroad all the way to Jinling City.

The railway has been abandoned for a long time. If you don’t explore it carefully, you would never know that it was once a railway.

Ningxue had no obligation to command the next operation, so she let Lu Zhenhe take charge, while Mingzhu Academy let Mu Nongjiao take charge.

Let the two captains discuss the specific action plan.

The first question was recognized by most people.

Because they were in the wild, many people put aside their conflicts and started to cooperate seriously. Some people were exploring the way ahead, while others were on guard around.

This is the wild, after all.
