Versatile Mage (Web Novel)
chapter-2201

“I’m going to skin you and use it to make a scarf.”

“I like your eyes. They are orange. I’ve never seen their color before. Once I pry open these trees, I’ll get to play with them.”

“I’ll hang you on the tree until your blood and meat are dried. I will store them for the winter.”

“You smell nice, I can smell you from a few kilometers away. We like human girls the most. Come live with me when I find you. You will stay with me, my brothers, and my fathers in our caves. We’ll eat you when you grow old.”

Scary voices spoke in the ears of the students, each sending a chill down their spines. They could not stay calm when they imagined what the Mountain Men were going to do to them.

Some of the girls even crouched on the ground and burst into tears.

They were not fighters, nor had they been in the wild many times. Even experienced Hunters would be spooked by the voices, let alone them!

“Stay calm, they can’t get in here!” Sharjah said.

“How are you so sure about it?”

“Yeah, you are the student union’s president. You have lots of magic Equipment to guarantee your safety, but what about us? If we are really surrounded, we are all going to die except for you!”

“I didn’t say anything. Write it down, don’t talk. They can mimic our voices!” Sharjah wrote on the ground with her Earth Element.

“Did you say it or not? Didn’t you say we are going to run?”

“I didn’t speak at all. Stop talking you all!” Sharjah yelled when she noticed the others did not even bother reading what she wrote.

However, she had broken her own rule when she shouted. The students were even more lost about what to do.

Which sentences were from Sharjah, and which weren’t?

They had to keep an eye on the surroundings. They did not have the time to watch her lips. Besides, none of them were calm enough to read her lips when there were so many voices bombarding their ears!

“Come with me!”

Sharjah realized the students would only lose their minds eventually if they stayed here. These Mountain Men’s ability to inflict psychological fear was too terrifying. They could easily trick the students by feeding them false information!

Sharjah used the Earth Element to write a few lines in front of everyone. It was the only way to calm them down.

Going with her was better than slowly falling into the Mountain Men’s traps!

Everyone, just read what I wrote and assume every voice you hear is from the Mountain Men!, Sharjah wrote.

Sunny, can you isolate their voices?

Sunny shook his head and explained the voices were coming too quickly. He could not isolate them all.

We’ll go look for the lecturers!, Sharjah wrote.

Sharjah led the group out of the plantation. Boleyn was extremely worried. She wrote on Sharjah’s hand, Sharjah, we’ll be falling right into the Mountain Men’s trap if we leave here.

Sharjah wrote in return, Don’t worry.

Mo Fan finally found the idiotic Zhao Manyan. To his relief, the rest of the students were still with the group.

The Mountain Men were extremely cruel. If someone had fallen behind from the group, the others would not have time to save them.

“Those voices of the Mountain Men are too horrifying. I wonder if the students at the plantation can hold their ground,” Zhao Manyan mentioned with a hint of worry.

“I’ve wasted too much time looking for you. Let’s hope they didn’t leave the plantation. They are in deep trouble if they leave the plantation!” Mo Fan agreed.

Mo Fan was a little nervous when he returned to the plantation. The students might not know what to do when he was not around. They might decide to leave there!

Mo Fan’s heart skipped a beat when he did not see the students as soon as he arrived at the place!

However, when he looked to the other side, he noticed the students had gathered on the other end, close to the outer circle of the plantation. They were walking back and forth behind the walls.

“Lecturer Mo Yifan!” Boleyn almost burst into tears when she saw Mo Fan return with the other students.

Sharjah let out a relieved sigh.

She was afraid that the students might see through her trick if Mo Fan had not come back in time.

“Huh? Why are we still inside?”

“Didn’t we already leave this place?”

The students had finally regrouped, but Mu Bai, Miyamoto Shin, and the others were still missing. Mo Fan was not too worried about their safety, since they were a lot stronger than the students.

Mo Fan knew something must have happened, judging from the students’ reaction. He asked Boleyn and Sharjah about it.

“Those Mountain Men are too scary. They kept frightening us by mimicking our voices to make us argue with one another,” Boleyn looked at Sharjah and said with an impressed face, “Luckily, the president is very smart. She agreed to bring the students out of here, but she used an illusion to trap us in here so we were simply walking around in circles. The other students thought we had already left the place, but we were still protected by the trees!”

Mo Fan was shocked.

Those Mountain Men really knew how to attack their vulnerabilities. Mo Fan had already told them not to leave the place, and had assumed the students would follow his instructions. To his surprise, it almost ended up as a tragedy.

Luckily, Sharjah had remained calm and acted intelligently. She tricked the students into believing they had left the place, just to calm them down. If they had really stepped out of the walls, they would have been torn to pieces by the Mountain Men in seconds!

“I’m sorry, lecturer! I shouldn’t have lost my calm,” Sunny said apologetically.

“(Sigh), as a Sound Mage, you are supposed to remain calm. You are the commander and the core of the group. Try not to panic again next time, do you understand?” Mo Fan scolded him.

“Yes…yes, sir,” Sunny lowered his head. He had never felt so useless until he came to the wilderness.

“Sunny, you are a Sound Mage. Can you think of a way to stop them from mimicking our voices?” Mo Fan asked him.

“That’s a little tricky, but I think I can mimic their way of communicating with one another?” Sunny offered after a moment of thought.

Mo Fan raised his brows. This student was not as stupid as he thought. He was able to mimic the way the Mountain Men communicated. This was going to be interesting!

It was time for him to teach those vicious assh**** a lesson!
