Most of the people in the stadium had been evacuated. The officials of the Greens were the first to flee from the city after the rebellious army blew their horns.

They knew the city was had little defense. It had no chance of fending off an attack.

However, Banlo City had many tourists from different countries and cities because of the open tournament.

They might be safe if they made it to the bunkers in time, but the battle was happening right in front of them. A single collapsed building would cause massive casualties.

“The rebellious army might be reckless, but our country’s Enforcement Union has its reputation too. They won’t attack our people as long as we don’t attack them,” Miyamoto Shin vowed.

“It’s extremely hard to track Wu Ku down. If we miss out on this chance, it will be harder to kill him next time. Get the Field Enforcers out of here, but the three of us won’t leave until we take Wu Ku down,” Mo Fan stated grimly.

“The three of us? Ugh, fine,” Zhao Manyan said unhappily. He agreed more with Miyamoto Shin.

“Fine, but please be careful. The Enforcement Union is proud of you all,” Miyamoto Shin had no choice but to give up after seeing Mo Fan’s firm attitude.

The people of the Aorus Sacred Institute were leaving as well. They were no ordinary people, after all.

None of the factions wanted to mess with the Aorus Sacred Institute due to how powerful and influential it was. Many organizations were willing to protect them as long as they proved they were from the Aorus Sacred Institute.

Unfortunately, not every student was from the Aorus Sacred Institute.

The city had many students who were wearing the uniforms of the new federation.

When the fleet of Wind Warships sailed across the main street, a group of students in their light blue uniforms was stuck behind a building.

Some light beams of light had knocked the building that was over fifty floors high to the ground. The debris scattered in front of the students, blocking their escape route.

One after another, Wind Gear Wheels swept forward, crushing the rows of shops into pieces.

The high-schoolers were so terrified that they all crouched on the ground and burst into tears.

It seemed to be a girls’ school. Most of them were wearing knee-length skirts.

Not long ago, the girls were discussing their favorite male celebrities and the brand of the lipsticks they were using. However, they were no different from the rest of the dead bodies that were scattered on the streets after the battle broke out.

The Internet, bereft of clear regulations and restrictions, was filled with violent and inhumane statements.

In reality, when laws were no longer applicable, verbal violence would soon escalate into physical violence.

Laws were subsidiary to a country, but a war was something that would destroy both the laws and the country.

All kinds of crimes would take place in an environment where people would no longer be punished or condemned for their actions, since everyone was only focused on staying alive.

The influence of the Frenzy Liquid was excessive. Humans would easily turn into beasts on their own when they were free from rules.

Mo Fan was amused when he thought about the list of people who were members of the Black Vatican.

Under the current circumstances, every person he saw could tear their shirts off and become a member of the Black Vatican.

The Black Vatican was the whole world’s public enemy, yet they would never go extinct. They would always find a way to come back from the ashes.

Every person who was not disciplined enough to contain the evil in their heart was a potential member of the Black Vatican.

How could they possibly exterminate all of them?

The Black Vatican’s plans always worked because Salan knew everyone had an evil side in their heart, much like a trapped tiger. All she had to do was to unlock the cage, instead of creating the tiger!

“We are the Brown Rebels, those who aren’t from the Federation are advised to leave at once. Any person who uses magic will be treated as an enemy of the nation. We have the right to execute them on the spot!” a man in a brown military outfit yelled out.

He sounded righteous, like a heroic commander who was opening up new territory for his country, even though he had a malevolent face!

Mo Fan landed in front of the collapsed building and asked, “I don’t care if you are attacking the city or killing the Greens’ army, what did these high-schoolers even do to hinder your advance?”

“They were wearing the Federation’s uniform. Please don’t get in our way, or we’ll execute you on the spot!” the commander of the fleet of Wind Warships declared.

“So you’re saying that their skirts are hindering your army’s advance?” Mo Fan asked.

Mo Fan took off his jacket and wrapped it around the waist of a high-schooler who was trembling in fear.

These people were clearly out of their minds to do something so wicked in front of him. He despised scum like the commander the most.

Did he really think he could conceal his scummy nature with whatever political motive his brown outfit was displaying? How many people were abusing the chaotic war to commit unforgivable acts just to satisfy their own pleasures?

“Brothers, come over here, there’s a foreigner who’s helping our enemy. Detain him. Kill him if he tries to resist!” the commander snarled.

He was the commander of the fleet of Wind Warships, with more than two thousand people under his leadership. No one would dare to lift a finger at him, even if he toyed with the girls from an entire building, let alone bullying one or two high-schoolers as he was taking a break.

Besides, once he established the new governing body as the pioneer of the Brown Army, many girls would line up just to hook up with him!

The commander’s men came to his aid at a surprising pace. A few dozen Mages gathered around the commander in less than a few seconds.

Mo Fan glanced at the commander. His fingers were already holding a few Shadow Spikes. They were like needles imbued with a dark red magic.

Mo Fan tossed the Shadow Needles forward casually, and they vanished into thin air.

More Shadow Needles appeared between his fingers as he walked forward. He tossed each round of the Shadow Needles into different directions.

“Brothers, take him out!” the commander ordered.

Mo Fan snapped his fingers, and dozens of Shadow Needles appeared beside the Mages of the Brown Army.

The Shadow Needles were insanely fast. They flew around the targets from different angles and zipped past them.

Each Shadow Needle left a black string along its trail. It was like a dozen sewing machines were operating at ten times their normal speed.

The Mages of the Brown Army immediately turned into string puppets. The black strings seemed to be going back and forth around them aimlessly, but they eventually combined into a thick string Mo Fan was holding onto from over a hundred meters away!
