Chapter 1360 Red Alert, Part One

Translated by XephiZ

Edited by Aelryinth

Northguard Fortress…

The city had existed for a long time.

It used to be called Northguard Pass, but it was upgraded into a fortress, a special checkpoint along the boundary with a magic market.

The market was inside the fortress.

The fortress was surrounded by thick steel walls, with huge towers at the front and back.

It was spectacular and magnificent, with a stern and imperious aura!

Mo Fan and his crew were utterly confused.

When the Shepherd and Cheng Ying left the city, they came straight to the Northguard Fortress, and headed north to the Yellow Valley.

Since they were heading to somewhere remote and desolate, Zhao Manyan had no choice but to stay behind at the fortress.

There was nothing but barren yellow land ahead!

——

Zhao Manyan and Lingling waited inside the fortress.

Only an expert of the Shadow Element like Mo Fan could afford to stay on the trail of their targets.

If they went with him, the enemy would most likely notice their presence.

The Black Vatican was known for how cautious they were.

They had not lowered their guard even now…

Lingling was still investigating the incident of the little town.

She had found some information related to ancient Egypt.

“I doubt you will find anything at this rate, why dont you just ask” Zhao Manyan said when he saw the topic that Lingling was researching.

“Ask who” Lingling nudged her huge glasses.

“General Fenna; shes in charge of a city in Egypt.

I still have her number, hehe!” Zhao Manyan chuckled.

Before the finals of the World College Tournament, Zhao Manyan was greatly impressed by the lady General during the battle against the undead in Egypt.

She gladly gave Zhao Manyan her number and told him to contact her if he needed anything.

Zhao Manyan had been extremely busy lately.

He had completely forgotten about her.

Zhao Manyan dialed an international number.

He could share their situation with her and ask for her thoughts.

“Is this General Fenna” Zhao Manyan asked.

“Its me, why are you calling me again I told you Im not interested in Asian men,” General Fenna replied coldly.

“…” Zhao Manyan was left speechless.

Fine, he admitted that he did try to flirt with her… “I really have some business to discuss with you this time.”

Zhao Manyan told General Fenna everything that the old herdsman had told him.

Fenna fell silent for some time.

She finally responded when Zhao Manyan asked if she knew anything.

“Theoretically, its not impossible.”

“Theory or not isnt really our concern.

Mo Fan has already dove pretty deep into the Black Vatican…” Zhao Manyan replied.

“Basically, theres an ancient legend about the mirages in Egypt.

Even we cant tell if its real or not,” Fenna said.

“What legend” Zhao Manyan asked.

“Its about Osiris and Khonsu; its a story similar to Pandoras Box… Ill briefly explain it to you,” Fenna said.

The story about Osiris and Khonsu was not widely known in Egypt.

The Egyptians assumed the mirages were just a natural phenomenon, a heavenly punishment.

Only a few knew about Khonsus story.

Fenna was a general, so she had more or less heard about the ancient legend.

However, it was impossible to verify if the legend was true.

“Triangle Dimensional Mirror” Zhao Manyan and Lingling exchanged glances with one another in astonishment.

The old herdsman did mention something similar when he was murmuring to himself.

However, everything that the old man said was too unbelievable!

“Apparently, the Triangle Dimensional Mirror doesnt really exist.

Some say its placed inside the pyramid… Im not really an expert when it comes to ancient artifacts.

Give me some time, Ill try asking about the Triangle Dimensional Mirror,” Fenna said.

Fenna was astounded to hear a mirage had shown up in China.

It was definitely necessary for her to look into it.

“Alright, please hurry!” Zhao Manyan felt a great chill running down his spine after hearing the tale of the legend from Fenna.

Lingling shared the same feeling.

The legend about Osiris and Khonsu matched some of the things that the old man had tried to tell them.

They now had a stronger feeling that the old herdsman was actually telling the truth!

——

Fenna needed some time to investigate the ancient legend.

However, Zhao Manyan had a strong feeling that the legend was real.

He was feeling extremely uneasy being on standby.

“Why dont we go buy some equipment thats useful against the undead Theres a huge magic market here, I bet we can find everything we need,” Zhao Manyan said.

“Sure,” Lingling nodded.

Waiting blindly was not going to do them any good.

It was better to take some precautions.

Perhaps they were really up against Egypts undead.

They both felt that the old man had spoken the truth!

Hopefully, Mo Fan was able to collect some important information.

They had a feeling that something serious was about to happen!

——

The two went to the magic city.

Zhao Manyan focused on buying antidotes, since most undead had strong poison.

A whole arm would fester if one did not treat a tiny scratch inflicted by an undead nail!

In addition to that, if they could buy one or two pieces of Ice Element equipment, it would be extremely useful against the undead.

Zhao Manyan had quite a lot of money with him.

It was better to be prepared than not!

“Speaking of which, isnt this Northguard Garrison a part of the Great Wall” Zhao Manyan glanced around the fortress as he recalled something.

The magic city was surrounded by the tall walls of the fortress.

If they kept heading north, there was indeed an ancient long wall.

Its aged bricks were aligned with the yellow land and the hills; the wall continued to the east and the west, forming a magnificent barrier protecting the Central Plains.

“The wall was built to defend ourselves against the Beijiang Desolate Beasts,” Lingling said.

“Arent Beijiang Desolate Beasts massive and strong Can the walls really fend them off” Zhao Manyan glanced into the distance.

The wall was huge compared to the size of a human.

It was extremely difficult for humans to climb over it, so it could easily fend off an invading army.

The problem was, the wall was only useful against ordinary people.

A Mage would have no problems crossing it, let alone demon creatures who could jump twenty meters into the air!

The demon creatures could easily trample the rock wall to the ground.

He wondered why the wall was still standing today.

“Youre clearly an uncivilized man!” a tanned woman harrumphed coldly when Zhao Manyan expressed his doubts.

Zhao Manyan was standing on the wall surrounding the fortress.

There were a lot of Battlemages around him.

The person that scoffed at Zhao Manyan was a female soldier.

She had a slim waist and an extremely huge bust.

Her handsome stance was perfect for someone like Zhao Manyan, who had a uniform fetish!

Zhao Manyan never cared what a beautiful lady said, even if she was despising him.

He would always approach a woman with a shameless smile.

“Can you please explain to me whats special about the wall, then” Zhao Manyan inquired.

“Northguard Garrison has been attacked countless times during the last thousand years.

The enemys numbers were always higher than the number of defenders on the walls, but they never invaded the fortress successfully! Its all because of the Great Wall!” The woman obviously had great faith and respect for the ancient wall.

She would not allow anyone to disrespect it!

“Is that so But I feel like the spells of a bunch of Earth Mages arent necessarily weaker than the wall, right” Zhao Manyan pressed.

“Imbecile!” The female soldier despised Zhao Manyan even more.

“Hey, dont go yet; you havent told me the reason!”

“I have no intention to speak to the likes of you,” The female soldier left, followed by a patrol of Battlemages.

They were all glaring at Zhao Manyan with great hostility.

Zhao Manyan was utterly confused.

He did not believe he had said anything wrong.

The Great Wall was just a tourist attraction now.

It would not provide them with any practical value if a battle was to break out.

Zhao Manyans phone started ringing as he was cursing the proud lady soldier under his breath.

Zhao Manyan thought it was Fenna, but he heard Mo Fans voice yelling into his ear when he picked up.

“Ask the Northern Pass to go on red alert right now!”
