Dampness, coldness, and a foul scent…

Everything felt so familiar.

Mo Fan stood on the roof of the stadium like a lightning rod under the stormy clouds.

It looked as if the western district of Banlo City had been devoured by something from his angle. The city looked scarier than a battlefield.

In the end, they had still failed to stop the Black Vatican’s plan..

They thought the Black Vatican intended to use the Frenzy Liquid to provoke the demon creatures into invading the cities of the Andes Federation and turn them into slaughterhouses.

To their surprise, the Black Vatican was not relying on the demon creatures this time.

The Frenzy Liquid…

Why did they assume the Black Vatican would only provoke demon creatures?

Mo Fan had long known that humans were more terrifying than demon creatures. If the Black Vatican’s Frenzy Liquid could drive demon creatures to madness, why couldn’t it drive humans mad, too?

The new Federation had long been swarmed with great threats.

The Federation had abandoned many people to the threat of the sea monsters. Millions of people held strong grudges against the new Federation as a result.

If a Frenzy Rain were to fall in a time like this… those people would completely lose their calm!

“We’ve been keeping an eye on the kingdom of demon creatures in the Andes Mountains and the Hillmen by making sure the Mounds were working properly… yet it turned out the ones we should look out for are the people dressed neatly, the people we are trying to protect!”

Mo Fan recalled what had happened in the Ninth Mound.

When he saw Blue Bat, there was a Hillman’s corpse on the table beside her.

The body composition of a Hillman was close to a human’s. Many Research Unions were willing to pay a huge sum for a Hillman’s corpse in good condition so they could conduct experiments on it.

Blue Bat’s final assignment was to provoke the Hillmen to raze the Aorus Sacred Institute to the ground.

Perhaps the conspiracy to destroy the Aorus Sacred Institute was only a test run for Salan.

Salan was extremely cautious. She liked to carry out a trial first, making sure everything would work according to her plan.

The plan to destroy the Aorus Sacred Institute was just an experiment they had stopped.

However, it did not mean Salan was not going to carry out her plan.

The Undead were the Ancient Capital’s threat. Similarly, the threat to the new Federation was its own people!

The only thing missing was a huge rain which could awaken the madness inside the bones of those who were thinking of revolting!

There were clues everywhere, yet they still did not see through Salan’s plan after chasing the leads here.

Salan had her way again. This time, she did not provoke demon creatures, but humans instead!

“Mo Fan. Mo Fan.” Zhao Manyan stood behind Mo Fan, but Mo Fan did not respond.

Mu Bai climbed to the roof with them and looked to the west of the city with pity.

“In the past, we still had the option to jump down and kill the One-eyed Magic Wolves or the Undead, but what are we supposed to kill now?” Mo Fan said.

Did Blue Bat, one of Salan’s disciples, know about her plan? Or perhaps the reason she did not tell Mo Fan the truth was because they were not against demon creatures this time…

“It’s my fault, I should have realized they had improved the Frenzy Liquid,” Mu Bai sighed.

The Frenzy Liquid…

They kept assuming the Frenzy Liquid was only effective against demon creatures. It had no effect on humans in the past.

However, the Black Vatican had created a new version of the Frenzy Liquid. They had most likely conducted experiments on the Hillmen.

The body composition of a Hillman was very close to a human’s. If the Frenzy Liquid had effects on a Hillman, it would most likely work on humans, too!

There were accidents in each of the exhibition matches. First, a participant had killed his opponent’s Contracted Beast. Second, a student had used the Curse Element to reduce the lifespan of his target. Even Ritchie, who was usually calm and collected, did something ridiculous.

Everyone was under the Frenzy Liquid’s influence. Even Mo Fan, Mu Bai, and Zhao Manyan could not tell if they were affected by the Frenzy Liquid.

——

The Federation was in utter chaos amid the heavy rain.

The Brown Rebellion Army was born from the Yellows. They had tried to kidnap Sancha to obtain financial support from her father.

The Yellows were gradually losing ground and were about to be replaced by the new Federation, but the rain had given them the courage to commit treason. It had also given the rebels a lot of allies.

It was a revolution; the more people that were involved, the stronger the revolution would be.

Banlo City was only the first city to fall in the war. In a few days, the Brown tide would reach other cities, turning the whole country into a war zone!

Mo Fan believed the biggest conflict lay between the Yellows and the Federation, but the Federation had a lot of problems itself.

How many riots would take place under the influence of the Frenzy Liquid?

The factories, magic organizations, clans, and political factions…

“I think we should leave. It’s their country’s business, after all. We have no right to stick our nose into their business,” Zhao Manyan spoke up.

Even though they were not satisfied with the outcome, there was indeed nothing they could do under the circumstances.

 Mu Bai pointed at the glowing crystal orb and said, “Mo Fan, take a look at the crystal orb!”

Mo Fan immediately looked at the crystal orb, which was shining suddenly. It seemed to be projecting an image.

“Can you tell where that place is?” Zhao Manyan came closer and asked.

“It seems to be the Scorching River. It’s upstream, close to the Andes Mountains,” Mo Fan said.

Mo Fan had a faint impression of the Scorching River. He remembered seeing it when Zhu Meng’s plane was passing Half-Ridge Mountain City.

It had been as wide as a sea canal.

Why would the crystal orb they found in Blue Bat’s eye be projecting an image of the Scorching River?

“Look, is that a person?” Mu Bai pointed at a tiny dot.

“It’s Wu Ku!” Mo Fan’s eyes glittered when he recognized Wu Ku’s bald head.

He did not understand why the crystal orb was only working now, yet it was obvious that Blue Bat had used it to track the man, just as he had used the same trick to track Blue Bat!

“That’s right, I did check the weather when we were in the Andes Mountains. It wasn’t supposed to rain so heavily, starting from this month until the next season,” Mu Bai blurted out as he remembered something.

“What do you mean?” Zhao Manyan asked.

“Weather has too many uncertainties. How could Salan make sure it was going to rain heavily when she carries out her plan? I was bothered by something else, too. How did they mix the Frenzy Liquid with the rain? How did they make sure the rain will keep falling after they use the Frenzy Liquid?” Mu Bai said.

“Are you saying that someone is controlling the rain?” Mo Fan said.

“Yes, Salan has always been careful with her plan, but the weather of a place has so many uncertainties. Rain is very crucial to her plan, both in Bo City and the Ancient Capital. If it was only a short rain, the Frenzy Liquid wouldn’t be as effective,” Mu Bai said confidently.
