The aura of the Ardent Sunset fiery dragons had significantly surpassed the scale of the Intermediate Spell Fiery Fist. Shi Qianshou was forced to back away from the scorching heat when the flames lunged at him wildly.
The flames burned Shi Qianshou's arm. He covered his eyes from the blinding light. The fiery dragons circled him and formed a ring of fire around him. The scorching heat of the flames continued to bake him.
Shi Qianshou's face contorted in rage. He bent forward and spread his arms out.
A black gust of wind lifted his bloody military jacket. It flapped wildly as a thick poisonous gas spread into the surroundings and collided with Mo Fan's flames.
The poison was so strong that it could even corrode the flames. Shi Qianshou let out a hollow laugh. As he opened his palms, poisonous insects beat their wings and sprang forward like a poisonous, black mist. It was difficult to tell if they had come out from Shi Qianshou's body or if they were born in the poisonous, black mist. The poisonous insects had eyes poking out from their sockets and wings like scissors. Their legs were thin and long, like mosquitoes, while their mouths were sharp and pointy. They could pierce the skin of a human like a needle!
"Brother Fan, watch out for those poisonous insects!" Zhang Xiaohou reminded him.
"You and Liu Zhuo should head inside the factory and find somewhere safe," Mo Fan told Zhang Xiaohou.
"Got it!" Zhang Xiaohou knew he and Liu Zhuo were unable to provide Mo Fan with any help since they could not cast a single spell due to the noise around them.
"Find some way to notify the army that Shi Qianshou is here!" Mo Fan said.
"Mmm, Brother Fan, don't worry. I'll leave Shi Qianshou to you!" Zhang Xiaohou nodded.
Even though he did not have the chance to kill Shi Qianshou himself, he was satisfied as long as Mo Fan was able to avenge Lin Feili on his behalf.
Zhang Xiaohou and Liu Zhuo ran for the factory when the two strong magicks collided once again. Liu Zhuo told Zhang Xiaohou there was an underground passage in the factories.
---
"We'll die without the protection of the fire," Liu Zhuo said uneasily.
"We will be fine as long as we don't attract a whole bunch of Sandstorm Demon Locusts to us. Didn't you say this factory has an underground passage to the mine? I remember the mine is in the north, it's very close to where the camp is!" Zhang Xiaohou said.
"It's very close, but there are Sandstorm Demon Locusts along the way," Liu Zhuo said.
"Then we'll force our way out, we have to do something!" Zhang Xiaohou said.

Mo Fan's ears were picking up another noise. The sound that the poisonous insects were making did not have the same scale as the noise of the Sandstorm Demon Locusts, but they were also extremely annoying, especially how their poison could spread rapidly from the tiniest cut on their target's body.
"So you like to act like a hero, I'll let you know how insignificant your attempt is!" Shi Qianshou yelled at him.
The poisonous insects rapidly coiled into an enormous spinning top and surrounded Mo Fan. They unleashed their poison while diving at Mo Fan like a bunch of greedy demons!
Mo Fan was shrouded by the poisonous mist. He summoned the Black Snake Armor without any hesitation.
The Black Snake Armor covered his body. The snake scales quickly absorbed the poison, clearing the cloudy mist around him.
Shi Qianshou was stunned. His Poison Element was at the Super Level, deadly enough to defeat a strong Commander-level creature with ease, yet the young man had something that could ignore his poison!
The Black Snake Armor was even more lustrous after absorbing the poison. It meant that the duration of the Armor had increased!
"Little Flame Belle, time to let this scum have a piece of our new fire!" Mo Fan said with an icy expression, his eyes burning like flames!
Little Flame Belle was shrouded by two different fires: the purest fire, the Calamity Fire, and the flames that even the Sandstorm Demon Locusts had to back away from, the Ardent Sunset. The two Soul-grade Fires merged into a stronger flame surrounding Mo Fan like a Domain!
Mo Fan's body was set on fire as soon as Little Flame Belle's soul merged with him. The Calamity Fire attached to the Black Snake Armor as an extra layer of protection, while the Ardent Sunset circled restlessly as his weapon!
It was Mo Fan's first time merging with Little Flame Belle after she came back to life. Not only was Mo Fan feeling the destructive flames filling up his body, he could also sense the faint pulse of a pounding heart. It was surprisingly calming, like a clear spring amid the raging flames that were motivating him!
Mo Fan was lost in his thoughts for a second. He finally realized why it felt so familiar. It was as if he was hugging someone tightly in his arms, like she was currently fighting alongside him, since Little Flame Belle's heart was also Xinxia's heart.
The woman who was far away by the Mediterranean Sea knew he was currently in an intense fight!
"Little Flame Belle, we can't let Mummy Xinxia worry about us. Let's make it a quick one!" Mo Fan was engulfed in two Soul-grade Fires. He was utterly fearless, even if he was facing Shi Qianshou whose Poison Element was at the Super Level.

Little Flame Belle's soul responded to Mo Fan's words. Mo Fan could feel the excitement from her, the excitement that she could fight alongside him again. It was her greatest wish!
"Humph, it's nothing but a show!" Shi Qianshou scoffed when he saw Mo Fan engulfing himself in fire.
So what if the young man had two Soul-grade Fires? He was a Super Poison Mage, his poisonous insects could destroy everything!
"Devouring Wind!" Shi Qianshou waved his hand, sending poisonous insects forward. They combined into a black gust surging ahead.
The Devouring Wind was formed by the poisonous insects. Similar to the Sandstorm Demon Locusts, the places that it swept past would be left barren. It was a vicious Poison Spell. Shi Qianshou was clearly planning to use the Devouring Wind to destroy Mo Fan and not leave a single piece of his bones behind.
The black tornado of millions of poisonous insects swept forward. Mo Fan thrust his right hand at it. The flames of the Ardent Sunset circling him spread rapidly. A huge arc-shaped barrier with dense fiery runes appeared before him. It completely blocked the Devouring Wind. The Poisonous Devouring Insects were turned into piles of black ashes when they collided with the burning shield.
The insects failed to get any closer. The flames of the Ardent Sunset were not only the Sandstorm Demon Locusts's nemesis, they were basically every insect's nemesis, as it could easily burn them all into ashes.
"Rise!" Shi Qianshou lifted his hands. The poisonous insects in the surroundings coiled about his legs and spiraled up, lifting him into the air.
The poisonous insects rose into the air and gradually covered Shi Qianshou's body. They continued to stack on top of him, turning into a poisonous black giant!
BANG!
The poisonous giant that Shi Qianshou had turned into stomped in the air, sending a huge bunch of poisonous insects to the ground. His strength was on par with a muscular demon creature. The impact knocked the buildings nearby to the ground while the wave of inspects went after Mo Fan a few hundred meters away!
"Die!" Shi Qianshou raised his hands. Countless poisonous insects appeared from his palms and combined into an Insect Bomb made of thousands of poisonous insects above him!
The Insect Bomb grew bigger and bigger, reaching the size of a two-story building. Shi Qianshou tossed the Insect Bomb at Mo Fan a few hundred meters away.
The wings of the poisonous insects snapped like scissors. Their strength alone could shred a Commander-level creature to minced meat.
Mo Fan rode a wave of flame and dodged the Insect Bomb. As the Insect Bomb landed on the ground and left a huge pit behind, the poisonous insects scattered and chased after Mo Fan. It felt like they were trying to surround Mo Fan in a disgusting ball of insects!
"Fire Burst Feathers!" Mo Fan spread out the Calamity Fire that was covering him like armor. The fire turned into thousands of fiery feathers firing at the poisonous insects rapidly gathering toward him.
"Explode!" Mo Fan clenched his fist, detonating the fiery feathers in different locations. The flames caused by the explosions gradually formed a ball of fire with Mo Fan at the center. The spectacular flames immediately burned the poisonous insects aiming to surround him into ashes!
"Rocket Wings!"
Mo Fan took a step back. The Calamity Fire reappeared and engulfed him. This time, it did not just cover his body, but it also formed a pair of wings on his back. The wide wings were completely made of fire, giving him an imperious appearance.
However, that was not the end of it. A brighter and ardent-red fire rose from the base of the wings and spread rapidly, forming another pair of wings slightly above the wings of the Calamity Fire!
The wings of the Ardent Sunset were like burning clouds. The light it was emitting was even a little brighter than the Calamity Fire. The two fires set off Mo Fan's appearance, making him look like an emperor just been born from the flames!
"I have a strong dislike of insects recently!" Mo Fan raised his head and looked at Shi Qianshou, now completely covered in insects.
Shi Qianshou sensed the overwhelming power of the flames, but the proud man showed no intention of backing away. He continued to Summon his insects, facing Mo Fan's flames directly with his poisonous insects!
The giant made of Shi Qianshou's insects shifted again. This time, they took the form of a giant centipede floating in the air instead. The giant centipede opened its mouth wide, revealing fangs made of the sharp wings of the poisonous insects.
The giant centipede dove forward. Its mouth was big enough to swallow an entire factory. Mo Fan was staring right into its dark, disgusting mouth!
Mo Fan did not back away from the ghastly bite. He stomped the ground, unleashing a shocking power from the wings of the Ardent Sunset and the Calamity Fire. It crazily boosted his speed, firing him into the air while a blazing red aftertrail and a strong wind followed behind. The force turned Mo Fan into a raging inferno bursting into the sky. The stunning ardent-red flames were trying to get rid of the cloudiness in the sky...

The Adventures of Alan
What happens when a university professor somehow ends up in another world, where magic bends the laws of nature? Alan is, albeit unwillingly, about to find out. As a professor of physics, he has a decent understanding of how the world works, or so he likes to think. Armed only with his knowledge, Alan is thrown into a world very different from his own. In his new reality, he will meet both friends and foe, he will seek knowledge, he will build power, and perhaps he will even find love again? Follow Alan through his adventures, and find out for yourselves how he deals with the challenges thrown at him by a new world, while struggling with the issues brought with him from his old one. * Author’s note: A fair warning. This is the first time I’ve published anything, and basically the first time I’ve written anything more than mandatory school-stuff. The story will probably have inconsistencies, grammatical errors (not my native tongue, though that excuse is getting old), and potentially confusing (missing?) plot. I will naturally do my best to write something worth reading, but my main goal in writing this story is to have fun and explore the limits of my own creativity. My hope in publishing it here, is that I’ll reach someone who enjoy the story, and can push me forward towards writing more, as it is difficult at times to find the motivation to write just for myself. Additionally, I can’t really promise to have regular updates, as I have a full-time job that often likes to take the ‘full-time’ part literally, and a sporadic social life that occasionally surprises me (happy surprises mostly, so I shouldn’t complain). I’ll aim for once a week to start with, and take it from there. Happy reading! Cover photo by Jeff Hire (/photographer/gun4hire-58415), from https://freeimages.com/.

I'm still improving as I go along. [Below is the real sypnosis] ***** Once a hero, now a zero. As a soldier, Bryan Walker was both fearless and skilful. However, fate had handed him the cruellest of tests. He suffered Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, PTSD and now a paraplegic without a penny under his name.

However, this time, it was not without its reward. Having a new lease of life given to him, what could Bryan Walker do next as he dived into the new world of VRMMORPG called Noble Path Online? The state of the art game was the best ever created, bridging between reality and fantasy world. A reality he once afraid of, and a fantasy that he cherished and love.

From a remote village in north Wales comes Arthyr, a beautiful young man of nineteen, who is the antithesis of Roman values. Yet the empress and her officers need his power over magic to assist their armies and face the White Dragon.

The Demon King Absolutely Has No Attachments
Welcome to Akoras Online, where the power lies in your hands. This sandbox virtual reality MMO has gained a dedicated community, but it has a catch: those who die in battle have their stats reset. Spending all his time on the server to escape his shut-in life, Kas is the only long-time player with a death counter of 0. However, his social skills are also a big 0, so he's condemned as the cold-hearted “Demon King”. Now, the number of players who actually like him is also 0. (Which is fine. He enjoys the peace and quiet.) However, Kas' dreams of being left alone are banished over and over by challengers with various grievances against him. Among them is Gabriel, the celebrity "Hero" of Akoras, who has just as much time on his hands as Kas. Seriously, Gabriel tries to fight him a lot. It’s getting kind of tiring… Wait, this guy isn’t even in high school yet! The (not-so) idyllic trials of a Demon King and a Hero, with a raging faction war in the background. Now updates on Tuesdays, with the odd chapter in between.
