Chapter 2306: March of the Mud Crocodiles
Translated by XephiZ

Almost every Skeleton Demon Tree in the swamp was stretching their claws out for Mo Fan. It was obvious how much Bucker hated Mo Fan right now.
“Demon Judgment Sword…” Zhao Manyan was about to construct a Light Star Palace when Mu Bai stopped him.
A Super Light Spell like the Demon Judgment Sword would kill the Skeleton Demon Trees instantly, but it would also alert the Brown Rebels that there were Super Mages in this company of soldiers.
The Brown Rebels had Super Mages, too. Once the trio was exposed, they would immediately attract the attention of strong enemy troops.
It was not like they could not afford to expose their strength in this war, but it was not the time. Their goal was to reach the Scorching River and take down Wu Ku!
The Federation Army had yet to reach the enemy’s base in the woods. Whether they could even make it to the Scorching River was still unknown, but the three of them did not want the Brown Rebels to notice them so soon.
“Rock Fang, Fort Wall!”
Mo Fan used his Earth Magic. Star Patterns kept glowing under his feet.
Rock Fangs jutted out from the mud and crossed in front of Mo Fan, building walls like a fort.
The walls surrounded Mo Fan and even stacked on top of his head to protect him. The skeletal claws had no chance to pry open rock controlled by a Heaven-inferior Seed.
“Rock Fang Thrust!”
Mo Fan Cast more magic extremely quickly. He immediately launched a counterattack after stopping the first round of attacks from the Skeleton Demon Trees.
More sharp rocks rose from the mud, appearing in bundles of ten instead of one by one.
The special effect of St.u.r.dy Strike activated whenever Mo Fan attacked with his Earth Magic. The Rock Fangs had a metallic sheen on them, like they had been refined.
Since the Skeleton Demon Trees were made of bones, they were more or less solid, so the St.u.r.dy Strike was very effective against them!
Mo Fan’s Rock Fangs tore a Skeleton Tree Demon into pieces. Even its trunk was on the verge of collapsing.
The skeleton soldiers stuck on the tree like puppets also fell to the ground. They were charging at Mo Fan angrily, as they could not feel any pain.
Mo Fan’s control of the Earth Magic was outstanding. He decided to stick to the Earth Element when he saw the skeleton soldiers running at him.
“March of the Mud Crocodiles!”
The swamp had plenty of Earth Magic around. The necromancer was not the only person who could abuse the swamp!
Mo Fan poured his Earth Magic into the mud. It suddenly became restless, large black bubbles popping on the surface.
Mud crocodiles of ma.s.sive size suddenly appeared and surged forward hungrily. Their ma.s.sive bodies lunged ferociously at the fragile small skeletons!
Their fangs were just as hard as the Rock Fangs Mo Fan had used previously. They were not real crocodiles, being made of mud and stone, but they were just as savage as a real demon crocodile.
Mo Fan had Summoned the Mud Crocodiles, taking control over the swamp with his Earth Magic.
Mo Fan could Summon a school of fish or sharks with a single thought. As for why he chose crocodiles, he believed a group of prehistoric crocodilian wako would look more menacing in the swamp.
The group of wako rushed across the swamp like a marching army. The skeletons might have had an advantage in numbers, but they had no chance of stopping the fierce wako!
Bones scattered through the air as the Mud Crocodiles smashed through the skeletons. The bones fell back into the mud like broken white stones.
“I wonder if you can rea.s.semble your skeletons?” Mo Fan suddenly inquired.
Bucker almost vomited blood when he heard the question.
Rea.s.semble the skeletons?
Those skeletons were not pure Undead creatures. He could not bring them back to life with a spell!
Bucker’s main power was the Skeleton Demon Trees, but the problem was that the Skeleton Demon Tree in front of Mo Fan was close to being destroyed. It would die as soon as the arrogant Mud Crocodiles rammed into it!
“You might have destroyed one of them, but do you think you can destroy them all?” Bucker screamed.
The rest of the Skeleton Demon Trees were moving toward Mo Fan. They kept shaking, dropping the skeleton soldiers off like overripe cherries.
There were skeletons everywhere in the swamp now. They completely ignored the rest of the Federation Army, charging at Mo Fan with a strong grudge, like they were going to tear him to pieces.
“Do you need a hand?” Mu Bai asked when he saw the tide of skeletons. They were crawling under the swamp waters too!
“Are you stupid? Shouldn’t you go and deal with that necromancer while I’m handling these skeletons?” Mo Fan yelled back at him.
“Uh… right.”
Most Mages who relied on Summoned Creatures would stand at the back. The necromancer would likely stay behind his undead, too!
However, Bucker did not seem to care about his position. Mu Bai was unable to tell whether he was stupid or fearless.
Mu Bai moved around a Skeleton Demon Tree. He noticed a shadow moving behind Bucker as he was about to make his move.
Mu Bai attacked right away, without taking a closer look at the shadow.
Bucker grinned coldly.
Mu Bai was using Ice Magic. Bucker cast an Ice Spell as well.
Their Ice Chains clashed loudly in the air as their fragments scattered everywhere.
Mu Bai was quite surprised when he discovered Bucker was a strong Ice Mage.
“Even if you are pretty good, my army of skeletons will soon overwhelm you! But since you want to die so much, I wouldn’t mind taking you out now!” Bucker said viciously.
Mu Bai did not use his Super Magic.
As a matter of fact, Bucker was indeed a strong Mage. He was most likely an important officer of the Brown Rebels, considering how strong his Undead and Ice Magic were.
However, he had decided to take on a regiment of the Federation Army alone, not to mention it was the regiment Mo Fan and his friends were in. He could only blame himself for being unlucky!
A war was indeed like spring for a necromancer, but it was most likely Bucker’s last spring, stumbling into them after the war had only just begun!
“Ice Wings!”
Mu Bai suddenly used a different spell. The ice shattered scattered in the rain turned into sharp ice feathers!
