Full-Time Magister: Super Mage

Chapter 497 Osto's Request: Heading to the Arrie Mine

When Osto saw that Jiang Han did not directly refuse his request, he knew that there was still hope, but the reward was not enough. After hesitating for a long time, he could only speak again and say, "As long as you can help us solve this Nazca crisis, I am willing to give you two sets of National Team resources afterward."

The eyes of everyone in the Nationalist team lit up. After all, who would complain about having too many resources?

Everyone knew that Jiang Han had secured all the benefits this time, so when Osto raised the reward again, no one spoke up, but simply waited quietly for Jiang Han's answer.

The main reason they did this was because of Jiang Han's strength. If Jiang Han didn't go, even if they were tempted, they wouldn't dare to risk going to Nazca, since they weren't confident they could survive an attack by the demon tribe.

"Alright, then may our friendship last forever!" Jiang Han said with a smile.

"May our friendship last forever." Osto smiled broadly on the surface, but inwardly he was cursing this little fox for being so cunning!

The Nationalist team members became excited, and Nan Yu asked, "Old Ai, can you command the guardian mages protecting the Yare mine?"

"Okay, you want to..." Ai Jiangtu was interrupted by Osto before he could finish speaking.

“You’d better not ask anyone else for help. Nazca is a forbidden area. If you let a guard into it, Nazca will summon a much larger tribe and wipe you out on Nazca’s territory,” Osto said.

"Furthermore, you must find the person who stole the Nazca treasure within a little over a week. Only by returning the stolen treasure to Nazca and obtaining Death's forgiveness can you truly escape the fate of being hunted down."

"Yes, it's true what he said. If those monsters don't find the treasure, they will definitely keep chasing you," Jiang Han said.

Jiang Han then began to ask them why they had gone to Nazca in the first place. After reviewing their experiences, Ai Jiangtu and the others all felt that the uncle who warned them not to go to Nazca had taken away the treasures inside.

"So much time has passed, where are we supposed to find him?" Guan Yu asked.

"Hmm~," Jiang Shaoxu pondered, resting her chin on her hand, then said somewhat uncertainly, "I remember smelling gunpowder on that uncle. The only places that can use gunpowder besides fireworks factories are mines."

"The Arle mine! It must be the Arle mine. Didn't we just hear that the troops stationed at the Arle mine were attacked by demons, and that the demons were some kind of Nazca monsters?" Ai Jiangtu suddenly exclaimed excitedly, as if he had just realized something.

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's hurry up and go to that Yalie mine!" Mo Fan shouted.

"I'll arrange for a helicopter to take you to the Arleigh mine right away," Osto said with a smile.

It must be said that Osto is an extremely rational and calm person, unlike Chief Morte, who is reckless, arrogant, and impulsive. That's why he offered generous resources to Jiang Han and his group to resolve the source of this crisis—Nazca!

If it were a wall-climbing magic legion in Nazca, the commander would encounter even fiercer rage, and what Nazca has no shortage of is numbers.

Osto's operational capabilities were impressive; Jiang Han and his group didn't have to wait long before a helicopter arrived from afar and landed in the square of Felipe Castle. After the helicopter came to a stop, everyone filed in and headed towards the Arrie mine.

······

The propellers spun rapidly, and below were two connected mountain ranges—this was Peru's largest magic crystal mine—the Arie Mine!

However, the valley of the mine has now become a monkey den, with white-headed monster apes everywhere, their numbers no less than the stones scattered all over the ground. Meanwhile, Chief Mote and his men, who had arrived earlier, are fiercely fighting against the white-headed monster apes.

When Osto was persuading Jiang Han and others to help resolve the Nazca crisis, Chief Mote led his men to come to the rescue in advance on a plane from Felipe Castle. Since they encountered the white-headed ape upon landing, Chief Mote has lost several men.

The number of strange apes has been increasing, from a few hundred at the beginning to now covering the mountains and fields. To wipe out so many strange apes, at least five or six times more Guardian Mages would be needed.

However, if so many Guardians were deployed, the number of these strange apes would only increase even more than theirs. Therefore, Chief Guardian Mott and his men could only rely on the people currently trapped in the mine to rescue the people trapped inside.

"The mages inside the mine are almost at their breaking point. Once the defensive barrier is broken by the monstrous apes, all the survivors inside will be buried alive, and those monstrous apes will definitely trample the mine until it collapses!" Commander Celie said with a worried expression.

"Can we contact the people inside?" Chief Mott asked.

"No, the signal can't be transmitted," said the female commander, Celie.

Just as Chief Mott frowned, pondering how to break the deadlock, a mage officer not far away suddenly shouted, "Chief, a helicopter has landed in the valley without authorization. It looks like one of our Felipe Castle's planes."

"Who are they?" Chief Morte asked, somewhat displeased.

Before the mage officer could answer, a series of explosions echoed through the valley of the mine, and the strange apes that were preparing to receive the "gift of nature" were blown to pieces by ice blocks falling from the plane.

After the helicopter came to a stop, Mo Fan was the first to rush out of the cabin, excitedly shouting, "Awesome! Jiang Han, you killed at least twenty monster apes with that blast!"

"A very powerful spell, but it doesn't seem to be ordinary ice magic," Ai Jiangtu praised.

"Just some petty tricks, nothing more," Jiang Han said with a smile.

Since the helicopter carrying everyone landed in the valley, a large number of white-headed apes quickly surrounded them. However, in the face of the apes rushing down from the valley, a sky-blue star map instantly appeared beneath Jiang Han's feet.

"Ice Vines - Snow-Covered Blade!!!"

The temperature in the valley suddenly dropped, and with each breath, several deep blue ice blades condensed in the air. Under Jiang Han's control, these ice blades whistled and shot towards the charging monster apes.

Pfft, pfft, pfft...

The sound of ice blades piercing flesh echoed continuously in the valley. Those white-headed apes hit by the ice blades were instantly frozen into ice sculptures. Before the oncoming white-headed apes could smash the ice sculptures, the ice sculptures floated up into the air and were then accurately smashed into the oncoming horde of apes.

This time, it was Jiang Han who made the move. He used his mind-controlled phantom claw to throw the frozen monster ape into the group of monster apes, and then directly detonated the monster apes that had been frozen into ice sculptures.

In an instant, a series of explosions rang out in the valley, and most of the white-headed apes that had rushed in were wiped out. Jiang Han took the opportunity to lead the others to the location of the mine.
