Lu Nian then looked at Lu Zhenghe and asked, "Is that the person I'm looking for?"
Lu Zhenghe glanced, his gaze stopping at Mo Fan's location. Lu Nian nodded in satisfaction.
Slowly, he raised his right hand and said to the team of mages in military uniforms behind him, "Kill all the irrelevant people."
Lu Nian's command to kill stunned Lu Zhenghe, who quickly forced a stiff smile and asked, "Big brother, have you made a mistake? These are all students from Pearl Institute and Imperial Capital who are training with me."
"That's why they all need to be silenced. I don't want any party to know about this," Lu Nian said in an extremely calm tone.
At the same time Lu Nian gave the order, several military mages behind him had already made their move. Luo Song, Shen Mingxiao, Xu Dalong, and Xiao Feng, who were in the front row, were directly pierced through their bodies by ice chains.
"Watch out for the thunderclouds! Oh no, this is a Level Three Thunderbolt!"
Someone shouted, and then thunder suddenly descended. A huge rumble echoed from the clear sky.
Mu Ningxue, Mu Nujiao, Zhao Manyan, Mo Fan, Bai Tingting, Song Xia, as well as Jingjing and Peng Liang, led by the Swift Star Wolf and protected by one of Zhao Manyan's defenses, intercepted the first wave of bombardment.
After they were safe, they realized that the Shadow-Patterned Violent Wolf had already disappeared from its original spot as soon as the thunder appeared. The person it had been carrying was charred black and completely lifeless from the Level Three Thunderbolt...
The lightning wasn't just a single strike; after the first wave of lightning exploded, a second wave followed continuously.
"Boom!!"
Those whose fates were uncertain were instantly turned into a bloody mist when the lightning struck, their muscles and blood indistinguishable. This time, there was truly no trace of life left.
The forked lightning continued to strike, becoming even denser. It was likely two Lightning mages simultaneously casting Thunderbolt.
Lightning danced wildly, striking repeatedly into the middle of their group. These proud students from the schools all possessed some magic tools and could barely hold on for a while, but the power of this Level Three Thunderbolt was extremely overbearing, strike after strike, each capable of shattering their defensive magic tools...
Jingjing, Liao Mingxuan, Song Xia, and Peng Liang were the first to be overwhelmed.
Fortunately, the first wave of lightning had ended, and they were not immediately killed.
"What kind of dog are you? Listen to me, I, Liao Mingxuan, am the son of Liao Feng from the Imperial Capital Magic Association! If you kill me, I'll make your whole family die!" Liao Mingxuan screamed hysterically.
Some people were already terrified to their core, and Liao Mingxuan was one of them. If another wave of bombardment came, he would surely die.
In fact, not just Liao Mingxuan, but everyone else was very scared right now.
"Oh?" Lu Nian raised an eyebrow, and his eyes suddenly glowed with a brown light.
As the brown light flashed, Liao Mingxuan, who had been screaming wildly just moments before, suddenly froze.
He couldn't make any sound, his body became stiff, and he couldn't even move a single finger.
His body was covered by a layer of grayish-white material, starting from his toes and gradually spreading over his entire body.
Liao Mingxuan still tried to struggle, but within a few seconds, he completely transformed into a grayish-white statue!!
"Such people are even less worth keeping," Lu Nian took another puff from his pipe, as casually and disdainfully as if he had just dealt with a small pile of trash.
And just as he dealt with Liao Mingxuan, he discovered that his younger brother had been captured by that kid Mo Fan?
Furthermore, he suddenly realized that Mo Fan actually possessed four elements!
Four elements!
With four elements, he would be the perfect experimental subject.
At this moment, Lu Nian didn't even care about his brother's life or death.
It wasn't until he heard Lu Zhenghe screaming in terror as the flames approached and burned him that he snapped back to reality.
"Speak, what do you want?" Lu Nian said indifferently.
"What do you want? We have no grievances with you, why do you want to kill us?" Mu Nujiao's entire face was flushed with anger.
As she asked this question, her body was still trembling slightly. It was clear that she was also afraid, but she had to force herself to calm down because Tang Miao wasn't here... She had no other choice but to rely on herself.
Now that Mo Fan had captured Lu Zhenghe, it could be said that this was their only lifeline.
Lu Nian was not in a hurry; his subordinates had already surrounded them.
If Lu Zhenghe could live, that would naturally be a good thing, after all, he was his only brother. If not, he would still kill them all to avoid further complications.
"How about this, a life for a life. Kid, you choose who lives," Lu Nian had no sincerity in negotiating, as for him, his brother Lu Zhenghe was expendable at this point.
Upon hearing this, Mo Fan hesitated a little... He didn't know what Lu Nian, this madman, truly meant... The most important thing was that he still didn't understand why this guy wanted to kill them. Had they stumbled upon some unspeakable secret? Otherwise, why the murder to silence them?
If that were truly the case, saving people? Mo Fan felt there was no chance at all.
"Four for one. Me, him, her, and her. You can do what you want with the others," Mo Fan hesitated for a moment before directly pointing at Mu Ningxue, Mu Nujiao, and Zhao Manyan.
This time, because he hadn't interacted with Bai Tingting, Mo Fan didn't point at him. As for Mu Nujiao, it was because of Tang Miao's relationship; after all, they were saved by Tang Miao, and he had a very good relationship with Mu Nujiao, so Mo Fan naturally felt that if there was a chance, it would be better to save her.
Bai Tingting and the others were all stunned after Mo Fan finished naming names... because this essentially meant they had been sentenced to death.
"I said, only one for one!" Lu Nian's voice suddenly turned cold.
"Then let me go," Mo Fan said without thinking.
"Hahahahaha, what an interesting kid," Lu Nian burst out laughing.
As for Zhao Manyan and the others, although they felt aggrieved, there was nothing they could do. After all, Mo Fan had already tried his best.
Lu Nian sneered, "Mo Fan, to tell you the truth, everyone here can leave, but you cannot. Because you are one of the best choices for my experiment!"
Mo Fan was stunned: "One of the best choices?"
Lu Nian said with some regret, "That's right. It's a pity... otherwise, that kid named Tang Miao would have been the best choice."
Mu Nujiao heard this and said, "Then why don't you go save him?"
Lu Nian snorted, "Although he's a very good experimental subject, it's not worth fighting to the death with him and the Giant Lizard Pseudo-Dragon for his sake.
