“Well… I’ll try my best to help you, but I can’t really say whether the army is going to allow it,” Brigadier General Blair hedged carefully.

“That’s fine!” Mo Fan said.

After all, many Magic Formations were like the recipes of special drugs, and were normally kept confidential.

For example, the Brown Rebels were able to form powerful Wind Warships, not because they had enough Wind Mages, but because they knew a special technique to combine their strength!

——

The Fearsome Martial Bear started moving again. The Brown Rebels were unable to gather enough men to stop their advance in a short time after the Wind Destroyer was defeated.

The group resumed its advance. The Crusaders also took hold of the opportunity to move deeper into the woods.

Raindrops were falling like silk strings, connecting the dense woods and the dark sky. Many flying beasts were soaring through the sky now, belonging to both the Federation Army and the Brown Rebels’ air forces.

The areas where the fighting took place were quickly left barren. No plants would survive after being bombarded with Elemental Magic.

The woods before them were so much denser and thicker that certain creatures were unable to move through them freely.

It was possible that the Brown Rebels had used special spells to give the plants some resistance against Elemental Magic. Even an Intermediate Fire Spell or an Intermediate Lightning Spell were being devoured by the green shrubs, like they had landed in a vast sea.

“Mo Fan!” Mu Bai suddenly pointed to the back of the greenery in the distance.

They were currently on a high point. They could see the Scorching River at the edge of their view, beyond the dense woods on a little downslope!

The Scorching River was a lot wider now, due to the continuous rain. It had spread to the woods, flooding part of them. The shorter plants had become water plants on a riverbed.

“We can see the Scorching River!” Mo Fan blurted out in joy.

They had finally made it after going through all kinds of troubles!

They had thought they were only up against the Black Vatican. They had never expected that they would be caught up in a revolution.

Either way, they had finally made their way to the Scorching River!

“Look at the water,” Mu Bai pointed out coolly.

They could faintly see the water of the river flowing into the clouds upstream. The rain was a lot heavier in that area, too.

Instead of describing it as a rain, it looked more like the sky had a huge hole which a sea above the clouds was pouring into. The mist produced from the huge waves alone was like a few dozen dragons swimming around the hole.

“Wu Ku must be there!” Mo Fan exclaimed.

They had seen the exact same sight in the crystal orb that told them where Wu Ku was. Wu Ku must have constructed an advanced Magic Formation there to call down the rain upon the area a few hundred kilometers to the east of the Andes Mountain Range.

——

A few swarms of red Demon Fireflies flew out of the huge leaves in the woods. Not only were they emitting a strange icy glow, their wings were constantly sprinkling some kind of powder.

The rain did not stop the powder from spreading in the air. Similarly, the Demon Fireflies were able to fly swiftly in the heavy rain, despite their size.

The Demon Fireflies’ numbers were not shocking at first, but as the Federation Army approached the forest, they suddenly lit up like a city filled with neon lights in the dark.

“It’s the Venomous Insect Shamans!” Brigadier General Blair blurted out in shock.

The soldiers had witnessed how scary the Venomous Insect Shamans were, so they were naturally intimidated as soon as they saw the infamous Poison Mages of the Andes Mountain Range.

The soldiers did not dare to go any further, yet the Demon Fireflies’ numbers kept increasing. The noise their wings were making was loud enough to hurt one’s ears. The poison powder they were spreading through the air was even more terrifying!

“I’m not sure if you guys are the same… but I’m feeling very uncomfortable right now,” Lt. Col. Mason suddenly spoke up.

He scratched his arm and left red markings on it, as if he had scratched it too hard.

There were a lot of insects in a rainforest. Some were as tiny as sesame seeds, yet could leave blemishes all over a person’s skin.

“It’s been more than a month since you last showered.” Zhao Manyan was disgusted by Mason’s foul smell. Somehow, he stank like horse dung, as if he had been sleeping in a stable every night!

“Maybe I’m just imagining it,” Mason muttered. Anyone would have a tingling scalp after they saw a forest swarming with Demon Fireflies.

“Have you ever seen someone scratching the back of their hand until it bleeds because of their imagination?” Mo Fan pointed at someone close.

A soldier in a simple outfit was scratching the back of his left hand, but his right hand was itching badly too. He had no choice but to scratch his right hand with his left hand. He looked like a filthy wild monkey, yet he did not stop, even when his hands started bleeding.

They looked elsewhere and noticed other soldiers were desperately scratching their exposed body parts, like they had been stung.

“Look under their feet,” Mu Bai pointed out.

The rain had washed the blood of the soldier who was scratching his hands to the ground.

A green mushroom grew rapidly where the blood landed. It went from the size of a thumb to a fist in just a few seconds, and it was not stopping.

The mushroom had a weird color and shape, like a pustule growing out of the ground. It even had some kind of fluid in it which was visible while the mushroom was swaying.

(Thud)!

(Thud)!

The mushroom exploded once it expanded to the size of a soccer ball.

The sticky green fluid inside the mushroom sprayed its surroundings like the gouting of a monster. Tiny black creatures crawled out of the mushroom and slithered inside the soldier’s pants in the blink of an eye.

“Watch out for the Mushroom Ticks!”

The first soldier did not notice the creatures. He was still scratching his hands like he was trying to tear his skin off.

His body trembled for a second, like he was about to lose his mind, and he dropped to the ground.

His skin started to redden from the back of his hands. His flesh and skin were bloating now.

His bloating skin looked exactly like the mushrooms that were growing out of the ground. The pustules went from the size of a thumb to a soccer ball in no time.

BANG!

Two poisonous mushrooms burst out of the soldier’s body, and two more Mushroom Ticks crawled out after they exploded!
