Mo Fan personally returned the stolen eye by placing it in the empty socket. As soon as he placed the gem back, he raised his head and saw a spectacular army of monster birds appearing in the sky like a wind.

Mo Fan was immersed in astonishment at seeing such a spectacular sight, but the sky soon cleared up and regained its color. It was perfectly clear, not a single cloud could be seen.

In just an instant, the bright sky had gone completely dark. Mo Fan had assumed it was the fifth wave of the curse. It was still absolutely terrifying, even after he learned the secret of the symbol-wielding creatures.

Luckily, everything had come to an end. As Nanyu mentioned, once the gem was returned, the cities that were under attack soon regained their peace.

The miners in Ariel Mines were set free, too. They could not help but cheer for joy when they were able to see the sunlight again…

After returning to the camp, Mo Fan realized General Mott had an absolutely unpleasant look on his face. Meanwhile, Ai Jiangtu, who rarely smiled, was wearing a mysterious grin. He even told Mo Fan he would prepare him a huge gift!

Mo Fan was confused. Why would he want to give him a gift all of a sudden? Didn’t Ariosto already promise to give them the resources that were initially allocated to their national team?

Ariosto indeed kept his word. He asked everyone to choose the resources they needed.

Considering that Little Flame Belle would surely need to eat a lot of food after she woke up from her deep sleep, Mo Fan secured quite a lot of Fire Soul Seeds from Ariosto.

Little Flame Belle would soon reach the Youth Phase. Her main intake would be Soul Seeds, as the energy of Soul Seed Pieces was no longer enough to satisfy her appetite. However, Mo Fan did not hesitate to spend money on her milk powder, knowing that she would evolve into the Flame Belle Empress in the future. He would surely give his daughter the best milk powder he could find!

The team spent a few more days in Peru. Mo Fan heard from Ariosto that the descendant of the Indians, Selton, was most likely in some kind of trouble, and needed a huge sum of money. He decided to steal the treasure of his ancestors after being provoked by some people.

Mo Fan initially thought the man was trying to achieve some wild ambition. However, when he learned the man was only a drug addict who desperately needed money, he could not help but feel sorry for ancient ruins that were hidden in the storm and the Nazca Lines that were protected by the monsters.

Time was able to change many things. Even the most brilliant group of people would still be corrupted by the rotten luxury of the modern world. The man obstinately persisted in going about things the wrong way, even when a disaster was already at his doorstep.

However, things like that were not Mo Fan’s concern, either.

Zhao Manyan had given Mo Fan the Magic Accelerator he had traded for. It was a ring he could wear on his finger. Zhao Manyan exaggerated the origin of the ring, and told Mo Fan his family actually suffered a loss from buying it, since it was more valuable than a Fundamental Crystal…

Mo Fan had no intention of covering the difference. He immediately went into seclusion after receiving the Magic Accelerator. His cultivating speed was suddenly as quick as a rocket. He successfully connected two Star Orbits, a total of fourteen Stars, in just a day!

At this rate, Mo Fan would be able to cast the Advanced Lightning Spell in just a few days!

It was obvious that a Lightning Constellation Scroll was unable to fully utilize the potential of the Advanced Lightning Spell. It actually needed a high level of precision, but the spell cast with the help of a Constellation Scroll was incredibly sluggish. It only allowed Mo Fan to fire a powerful lightning bolt. However, the specs of the Advanced Lightning Spell that Mo Fan knew were not as simple as firing a lightning bolt!

Similarly, the Nyx Regime could be used in different ways, too. However, it was only possible once Mo Fan Awakened all the Stars and mastered the process of controlling the Star Orbits and Star Patterns!

Late that night, Mo Fan lay on his bed, holding his phone with a full signal bar.

“Lower, go lower, what are you feeling ashamed of, there isn’t anyone here…” urged Mo Fan.

“No way, I’m in broad daylight,” Xinxia felt that Mo Fan was being too shameless. She immediately turned off the video.

Mo Fan felt it a pity. It was a pleasant surprise when he discovered he could see an alluring cleavage while Xinxia was wearing shirts with a lower neckline. It seemed like the girl had grown a lot after not seeing her for a few months.

After such an unbearable night, even after seeing a single strand of her hair, Mo Fan could imagine her attractive body, let alone seeing the parts that easily triggered his fanciful thoughts.

Unfortunately, Xinxia had turned off the video. She must have realized his true intentions…

“Well, it’s still day over there, should we continue at night, then?” asked Mo Fan.

“…” Xinxia felt the urge to tell the perverted Mo Fan that it had nothing to do with the day or night!

“I’m going to hang up now. I have to go. My teacher has asked me to compete for the role of an Parthenon Servant, so I will have permission to enter the Hall of the Goddess,” Xinxia switched the topic with a blushing face.

“Hall of the Goddess… what’s that?”

“The Parthenon Temple is split into different halls. The Hall of the Goddess is the noblest among them, it inherits the Healing Magic of Goddess Izisha. She’s referred to as a goddess, as she’s the only person that knows how to cast the Spell of Resurrection. The servants of the Hall of the Goddess are well respected across the world, as they are the most accomplished female Healers in the world. My teacher is hoping that I will be chosen by the Hall of the Goddess as a probationary Servant, so I can receive the blessing from the Hall of the Goddess. The blessing will greatly improve the efficiency of my Healing Spells, and grant them special effects, too!” Xinxia explained patiently to Mo Fan.

“The Spell of Resurrection? Can it really resurrect a dead person?” Mo Fan asked seriously.

“I don’t think it works on someone that has been dead for a long time…” said Xinxia.

“Can you learn the spell?” asked Mo Fan.

“No way, even the role of a probationary Servant is fought over by ten thousand talented Healers! Besides, the rank above Servant is Muse, the rank above Muse is Hall Mother, and after Hall Mother is the Goddess. However, the Goddess isn’t decided by an election. It’s from inheritance… it’s very impressive if someone like me, who isn’t an official student of the Parthenon Temple, can attain the rank of a Muse,” said Xinxia.

Mo Fan was not familiar with the Parthenon Temple. However, after hearing the information from Xinxia, he was intrigued by the place, which was referred to as a Sacred Land by the rest of the world.

-Spell of Resurrection? Is the supreme goddess of the Parthenon Temple really able to resurrect a dead person?-

If so, it was not exaggerating to call the person a Goddess. He would have to visit the place if he had the chance…

It was not like Mo Fan was really interested in the Healing Magic of the Parthenon Temple. However, he could easily tell that the place treated women very highly, just from Xinxia’s description. Imagine if every hall of the temple consisted of slender women in long, white dresses, and the reflection of their alluring bodies could be seen clearly on a floor that was smooth as a mirror, and the air was lingering with the sweet-smelling fragrance of the virgins…

How could he not visit a place like that? He would easily drool all over the place!

The team’s next destination was Mexico. Without any surprise, the advisors had frozen all their valid identities. They had no choice but to journey through Columbia, Panama, Costa Rica, and the other countries along the coastline on the Caribbean and Pacific, on foot…

“Man, this coastline is as long as the Grand Line in One Piece. Why do I feel like we’re going from Fujian Xiamen to Shenyang and Dalian by foot!” Zhao Manyan grumbled.

“The Caribbean Sea is right beside us. I wonder if there are pirates here?” asked Jiang Yu, displaying eighth-grader syndrome.

“I’m not too sure about pirates in the Caribbean Sea, but there is indeed an infamous pirate crew along this coastline. The harm they have done to the countries here is second only to the Black Vatican,” Nanyu informed them.

“Let’s hope we don’t stumble into them and get robbed or anything; we do have some pretty girls on our team,” said Zhao Manyan softly.

“Humph, I heard that Americans are more interested in a handsome, rich man like you!” Jiang Shaoxu returned the favor.

“I would rather travel across the Caribbean Sea than train in the Amazon Jungle. Apparently, the Amazon Jungle is a kingdom of demon creatures, and no one has managed to estimate the number of demon creatures residing here. The whole place is crawling with packs, and even hordes, of demon creatures! If we are sent here for training, our training will soon come to an end,” Jiang Yu claimed coldly.

The Amazon, when classified by colors, would have entirely red edges, and the areas a little deeper in would all be purple. If someone ventured deeper into the Amazon Jungle, it would be the same as a little creature venturing into the middle of Shanghai…

A city of monsters!

That’s what the Amazon Jungle was called!

As a matter of fact, if their next destination was Brazil instead of Mexico, they would seriously assume their crazy advisors were planning to throw them into the center of a city of demon creatures. Sending them to train was just an excuse to feed them to the demon beasts in the Amazon Jungle!

As such, they were lucky that they were told to travel near the Caribbean Sea on land along the coastlines of the countries there.

——

The team did not have much trouble crossing the borders between the countries. They passed Columbia and gradually approached the Caribbean Sea.

They continued to walk on foot. Considering that not everyone on the team was an expert when it came to fighting on or underwater, they did not take a boat this time.

They were currently in the tropics. Coconut trees were fairly common along the journey. They also passed by lots of villages, towns, small cities, most of them with rows of coconut trees along the roads, and the buildings were mainly made of straw and wood…

“Strange, is this a village of single men? Why haven’t we seen any women after passing so many villages?” Zhao Manyan was likely to be feeling lonely, and started complaining again.

“They are all dudes.”

“They don’t even have any defenses set up. They would be done for if sea monsters came.”

“I believe they aren’t necessarily afraid of sea monsters. Didn’t you see the wanted posters in the bigger towns and cities we passed by…”

“Wanted posters?” Mo Fan’s eyes glittered as soon as he heard the term, part of his nature of a Hunter.

After all, Mo Fan was now a Hunter Master. He basically relied on the rewards of his jobs to pay the expenses required to continue his journey as a Magician. As such, he reacted instantly when he heard the term, and proceeded to ask how great the rewards were!
