Chapter 37: Watching the Mess
Bang! Bang! Bang!
At this moment, the Fourth Head of the Wansu City was doubting life. He was reading the report from the frontline, which showed that the two sides were equally matched and he felt really bitter. Because this meant that the victory and defeat of the war between Wansu City and Xunsu City might not be determined until a long period of time.
But the problem was, the Fourth Head of the Wansu City knew that there was still the ghost problem.
They couldn't afford for a long and protracted war.
He was about to write about the next tactic when there was a scream right below his office. No matter what, the Fourth Head of the Wansu City couldn't ignore this and rushed down.
When he saw several puddles of black 'water' like shadow, the Fourth Head of the Wansu City's body trembled.
"Seal them all!" the Fourth Head of the Wansu City said furiously.
"We can't hold them down!"
"Ahh!"
Bang! Bang!
Various magics were thrown to these black water shadows. The ghosts this time was still as stupid as before, but they kept on moving towards the building, which made many magic warriors nervous and hit even harder.
What a joke.
They couldn't possibly let these ghosts enter the Fourth Head of the Wansu City's office.
Where would they put their face if they did.
So the Fourth Head of the Wansu City also started to attack these black water shadow ghost.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
…
In the distance, Aya could hear the commotion but she has no intention to check on it. With her current age and identity, what was the point of her going to where the commotion was.
No matter how curious Aya was about how their battles were going to be, she guessed that the Fourth Head of the Wansu City should seal those ghosts in the end.
It would be troublesome for the Wansu City in a whole if they kept capturing these ghosts because they didn't have enough containers to hold or even use these ghosts.
Then again, it was not Aya's business.
She bought some sweets and then went back to where the show was. At this moment, Evan was standing on top of a chair, trying to look through the crowd in front of her.
Aya's lips twitched when she saw this.
"What are you doing Evan?"
"The Fourth Head is fighting and I want to see it," Evan replied. "But it's hard to see."
Aya: "..."
Considering that both of them were only 4 and 5 years old respectively, it was not strange for them to be unable to see the front with these adults blocking their view.
"How about if we step forward?"
"It's dangerous."
"Let's go to a building and climb to the second floor…"
"Good idea! Come on!"
"Why are you pulling me?"
In the end, Aya was dragged to the nearest building's second floor by Evan and went to the window. There were also many other people there who were watching outside.
It seemed that the battle of the Fourth Head of the Wansu City and the ghosts had attracted many people's attention.
Today should also be the first time they knew about the ghosts' existence.
If Aya had to be honest, she wondered what these people in the city who were not mages or magic warriors thought when they saw the ghosts. After all, they would have to face a different kind of danger aside from the magic beasts out there.
No one would be thrilled with this situation.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
From this distance, all they could see was the magic being thrown all over. There were many mage and magic warrior around the Fourth Head of the Wansu City, helping him to fight as much as possible.
The battle was really boring.
These ghosts didn't exactly fight back and they were only being passively beaten.
Aya didn't really like these cannon fodder ghosts.
'The first rank ghost is also passively beaten most of the time, but they can also counterattack and their means are quite unique.'
The development of these ghosts were rather slow.
But in her era back then, the first time these ghosts appeared, it was instantly rank 1 and within a few days, there were also those above rank 1. But after that, it would take a long time before any ghost of higher rank could appear.
These ghosts took a long time to raise their rank.
"Aya, can you see what magic they're using?" Evan asked curiously.
"I can't." Aya shook her head. From this distance, it was hard for her to take a look at what kind of magic they were using unless she was using the crystal eyes. But no one knew that she has the crystal eyes, so her cousin shouldn't mean this.
Evan nodded and didn't delve on this matter. He was only looking at the Fourth Head of the Wansu City who was fighting and then asked, "Do you think the Fourth Head will announce the ghosts' existence?"
So far, no one ever talked about these ghosts openly. It seemed that everyone came to the tacit agreement not to talk about it until the very end.
Even them who have seen the ghosts directly, were not allowed to talk about it.
"Probably. "Aya replied.
The ghost appeared in full view in front of many people.
If the Fourth Head of the Wansu City didn't announce it, there would be many people who would come forward to ask him about what it was.
At that time, it would be more troublesome for the Fourth Head of the Wansu City.
'But I can't always use this tactic.'
