Chapter 78 Elemental Mage
The courtyard entrance of Bearboar Town was not far from the hotel. When Taibetha appeared at the garrison station driving a chariot, she instantly became the most beautiful girl among a bunch of poor adventurers.

The logistics officer of the garrison regiment even gave Taibetha a set of military energy units for free. To put it simply, the value was roughly equivalent to the fuel money for the tank to run for more than half a month.

Well, actually the garrison is not opposed to adventurers. Of course, it would be best if they were demon hunters with certain strength.

Because the safer the courtyard is, the garrison regiment can get more rest. For the garrison regiment, they actually wish a powerful brigade could come to the courtyard and kill a lot of people.

We all have to make a living, and watching others risk their lives is always more harmonious than risking your life yourself...

Combat readiness represents combat power to a large extent. When the steel muscle car like a war machine appeared at the entrance of the courtyard, there was no need for publicity. There were many adventurers who volunteered to team up with Tabitha at the entrance of the courtyard.

However, compared to Mu Hua, who smiled charitably as if he was observing cheap labor, Taibesha had higher requirements for the teammates she wanted to recruit.

Personal combat capability may not be considered, but magical adaptability, character, and even age are all the focus of Taibesha's attention.

If there is no focus, well, then it won't get Tabitha's attention at all.

Although Taibesha was gentle and cute when communicating with Mu Hua, she was essentially a young lady from a wealthy family.

Make a rich lady look differently at a group of poor people who are calculating the price of bullets?
Go home and watch TV series, that's basically a joke.

And Tabitha's attitude of keeping a distance yet being friendly towards outsiders is probably a perfect reflection of good family education.

At this point, Mu Hua also deeply realized the value of the word "cousin" to Taibesha. It was a bit disappointing that Mu Hua was secretly happy. . .

The few young adventurers that Mu Hua had his eyes on were ultimately unable to get on the bus. Apart from their inexperience, Taibetha saw no other bright spots in them.

Moreover, the labor law in Loren seems to be different from that in Landon. Mu Hua is so kind that he might get into trouble here.

The chariot entered the courtyard, called up the map, turned on automatic navigation, and the floating chariot flew towards a mountain with half of its peak covered with snow.

"This mission is not bad. Draw a distribution map of monsters on the north slope. As long as we confirm the types of monsters in the caves on the north slope, we can occupy 2% of the resource quota of Mount Zilfi."

Taibesha said to Mu Hua, leaning over the narrow deck around the chariot and looking at the surrounding scenery while holding the railing.

It is not wise to explore the courtyard aimlessly. For some time, the Adventurer's Guild has arranged a large number of ritual arrays in the 375 courtyard and also conducted rough reconnaissance of some areas.

That kind of reconnaissance is more about using drones for high-altitude aerial photography.
Most monsters are not wild beasts. They know how to hide and will even attack drones, so the information that can be obtained from this kind of reconnaissance is very limited.

More precise reconnaissance of these areas has become a public task issued by the Adventurer's Guild. Apart from a certain amount of contribution points, it is difficult to determine the reward for such a task with unknown risks.

This also means that partial development rights of natural resources in these areas become a form of compensation, a compensation with legal effect.

"There are claw demons there, there are snow monsters halfway up the mountain, and Mount Zilfi is within the estimated range of the Goblin Kingdom."

"It's not a good task to be stuck on the task board for so long." The strong wind slapped his cheeks. With his own magic power replenished, Mu Hua put on a new undead bone shield to ensure that he was in perfect condition.

Taibetha was very envious of the bone shield, but she had not been in deep contact with the breath of death, and this magic could not be used on other people.

Tabitha also possesses clairvoyance, the source of which is probably related to the devil's contract.

Although Tabitha will not be eroded by the death energy in nature, it still makes her uncomfortable, and the death energy condensed by others is still poison to her.

The magic of Undead Bone Shield contains the element of the breath of death. If it is used on others, it is not called Bone Shield, but Death Coil.

Bone Shield can barely be considered an offensive and defensive magic, but Death Coil is usually too easy to break, and its instant damage effect is almost zero.

This also makes the so-called death coil more like a punishment, and almost no one will use it as a means of attack.

"Honor and fortune are achieved through risk. Mu Hua, don't act like an old man. If there were a good mission, those powerful teams would have flocked here long ago." Taibesha was dissatisfied with Mu Hua's spoiling of the fun.

The Adventurer's Guild is not a charity. Although it does not belong to any country, it is under the federal government.

In the unexplored areas of the courtyard, those so-called resource quotas are actually a gamble. You risk your life, and if you have them, you will get them. If you don’t, don’t blame anyone.

There is no shortage of resource-rich courtyards around the world, but no one can say what resources exist in emerging courtyards.

Before certain information is released, more mature demon hunting teams usually don't come to the Emerging Courtyard to waste time and energy.

"We are still young, why should we seek for danger?" Mu Hua explained his outlook on life.

"Then you are still a necromancer?" Taibesha felt that Mu Hua was making a specious argument. The necromancer was a risky profession. "No, you only saw the summoned beast. In fact, I am an elemental mage." Mu Hua grinned and defended.

"Haha, you can call out the banshee in your body and say it again." Taibesha gave Mu Hua a smile that said "whatever you want to say."

Well, no matter how you look at it, Mu Hua is a necromancer.

But he really didn't take any risks. Didn't you see that he would throw away the fishing rod whenever he caught an abyss monster?

He just took some skill stones of necromancy magic, and somehow he became deeply adapted to the aura of death.

"Tuesday is my follower. Do you want to learn how to use the bone shield?" Mu Hua leaned against the car body armor and asked Taibetha meaningfully.

"I can't learn it, but you, is it really okay to learn so many miscellaneous things? I have my own path, and I don't want to waste time on soul strength for the time being."

"Besides, I dare not let a banshee get into my soul." Taibesha understood what Mu Hua meant, and without any hesitation, she shook her head to refuse.

Tabitha has clairvoyance, which is a prerequisite for becoming a necromancer, but her soul strength is too low, making it difficult for her to learn bone shield.

It is true that there are some spiritual huts in the outside world that help people to hone their souls. What they do is to create ghosts and evil spirits to tear apart the souls of practitioners.

That kind of place charges money, and going there to strengthen your spiritual attributes is basically the same as paying to suffer, and it is not uncommon to suffer spiritual trauma at any time.

In Mu Hua's opinion, the safety of his own Tuesday is much higher than the ghosts in that kind of place.

Mu Hua wanted to help Taibesa improve her spiritual attributes, but Taibesa was now more concerned about her physical fitness and intelligence, and she was not prepared to feel uncomfortable with her own soul.

The two chatted on the deck. The chariot had already set a safer flight route. The snow-covered peaks of Mount Zilfi were still blurry in their eyes.

However, at the edge of the forest below, a group of adventurers struggling to resist the attacks of monsters attracted their attention.

"Bang, bang!" Tabitha patted the deck of the chariot.

"Pumpkin Pie, slow down, support." Tabitha shouted to the inside of the car. Pumpkin Pie is the name of this tank, or rather the name of the intelligent system installed on this tank.

The chariot slowed down and turned around. Below was a plain bordering the forest.

The seven adventurers retreated from the forest while fighting. Some arrows were scattered in the forest, and one of the adventurers with a gun was shot through the throat by a sharp arrow.

As his companions exclaimed, a four-meter-tall ogre rushed out of the forest and smashed the head of another warrior with his rough stone axe.

The tank lowered its altitude but remained suspended in mid-air.

Not knowing the situation of the monsters in the forest, Mu Hua fired a machine gun from high altitude to cover the retreat of the remaining five adventurers.

There was no need to communicate with these adventurers. When the first ogre that rushed out of the forest was shot into a sieve by Mu Hua, dozens of big goblins riding on wolves, four or five ogres, and two goblin wizards guarded by the ogres, emerged from the forest.

After confirming the enemy situation, the monsters below also stopped chasing the adventurers because of the chariot in the air.

The Goblin Mage stared at the chariot and shouted. Following the Goblin Mage's shout, the big goblins and ogres slowly retreated, as if they wanted to retreat back to the forest.

"Be careful of the wizard, there are archers in the forest." The five adventurers barely escaped and hesitated whether to land. When Taibesha said to Mu Hua, she saw Mu Hua frowning and waving his arms.

"Fireball!"

With a deep shout, dozens of magic circles unfolded in the sky and fireballs poured down like a rain of fire, hitting the goblin wizard guarded by the ogre.

"Bang~~Bang~~Bang~~"

Fireballs attacked from the air, and those powerful ogres, who had almost no magic resistance, were instantly burned into huge pillars of fire.

A goblin wizard who had luckily escaped the disaster let out a sharp cry, and the forest suddenly became chaotic, with the monsters in the forest fleeing in all directions.

"You..." Tabitha opened her mouth slightly, her face full of surprise.

"What did you just say? Fireball?" the girl questioned Mu Hua.

"Yes, Fireball. I told you I'm an elemental mage." Mu Hua spread his hands, ignoring Taibetha's ghostly look, and looked at the monsters that were scared away with a little regret.
