Chapter 41 Abandoning the mission
"Mental attack? Psychic?"

"I'm not sure, I'm still waiting for the result." Mu Nujiao shook her head in denial.

The ponytailed girl Xiaodie was so anxious that she was running around in circles. She didn't dare to make any noise for fear of disturbing the healing mage who was treating Xu Huang's injuries.

"Miss, Deputy Captain, what should we do about our mission assignment?" Lu Liang asked calmly.

"It's already this late, and you're still thinking about the commission! Human lives are at stake now, what if Brother Xu can't wake up?" Xiaodie was dissatisfied and angry at Lu Liang, crying anxiously. Usually, Brother Xu treated her best, and now that he was injured, she was most worried.

Liang Jie didn't say anything, he clenched his fists, his nails digging into the flesh.

Everyone in the monster hunting team's eyes were wandering between deputy captain Li Jia and Mu Nujiao. The monster hunting process was extremely dangerous and injuries were inevitable. However, everyone regretted letting Xu Huang go alone to check the situation on the farm.

"The military has been involved in the mission. We will give up for now and make plans after confirming Xu Huang's injury situation." Mu Nujiao felt even more regretful in her heart. She never thought that just one of her orders almost caused a husband and a father to lose his life.

The sound of rustling footsteps came from outside the door, and a woman in white clothes and long hair quickly stepped forward to check Xu Huang's injuries.

"Lingyi-appease!"

A light star track slowly lingered up from the slender waist of the long-haired woman in white, like a star ribbon. When the seven stars were completely connected together, the light of the soul sprinkled on the pale-faced Xu Huang.

The soothing soul ripples smoothed Xu Huang's frown, and the black spider silk entangled with the spiritual world slowly dissipated under the soul ripples.

"Glory-Purification!"

The light spot on the fingertips was ejected by the long-haired woman, and the light turned into a slow projectile and flew into the body of Xu Huang's residual soul. A faint light enveloped Xu Huang. Light magic itself has the ability to dispel and purify. A light made Xu Huang completely stable.

"His soul was severely damaged, but fortunately he was rescued in time and his life was saved."

The long-haired woman turned around and asked Xiaodie, who was always keeping an eye on Xu Huang, to take care of the details of Xu Huang.

"He was attacked by a curse, and his spiritual world was eaten away by an evil spider. He needs to rest and recuperate. He cannot use magic again before he recovers, otherwise his body will be overdrawn."

"Fortunately, the guards happen to have a psychic and light mage stationed here, otherwise Xu Huang's life would be in danger." Xiaodie patted her chest as if she had survived a disaster. She was scared just now. Even the omnipotent healing mage was helpless against the soul injury.

"There are only two types of people who attack magicians in the An Realm. One type is the wanted criminals on the run..."

"What else?" Xiaodie was very angry that someone actually wanted to kill Brother Xu.

"One type is the notorious Black Church." Lu Liang took over Bai Le's words and calmly stated his own speculation.

"Only those crazy dogs who don't care about their lives would persecute humans everywhere, a bunch of them are born."

Seeing that everything was fine, Bai Le opened the tent and went out to get some fresh air.

"Why did you come out?"

"Everyone is discussing what to do next. I'll come out and rest for a while." Mu Nujiao hugged her arms and squeezed the soft peaks wantonly.

"Since it's a wanted criminal or the Black Church's doing, is there no news from the Guards yet?"

Generally, the Black Church will be handled by the Inquisition in the Magic Association, while the wanted criminals will be captured by the Guards. The two have their own responsibilities but are interconnected. The Inquisition will also be responsible for capturing wanted criminals.

"There is no news from the guards yet. The mission entrustment will also be handed over to the guards to handle."

"So where are we going next, heading home?"

"The mission assignment is only a part of the training. One of us will leave behind to look after Xu Huang, and the other three will go to the dam with us. In the last month of the Yangtze River's flood season, the impact of the river monster has come to an end. We are going to resist the last wave of offensive." Glancing at Bai Le's hesitant expression, Mu Nujiao continued.

"Don't worry, even though it's beyond the mission, I'll pay more!"

The demon hunting team had lost a main force, but Bai Le's warrior-level Bone Killing Dark Tiger could ensure the success of their trip. After a rest, the deputy captain Li Jia, Liang Jie, Lu Liang, Mu Nujiao, and Bai Le headed towards the dam guarded by the guards.

During the flood season of the Yangtze River, there are tens of thousands of demons invading the basin. It is difficult to guard the embankments and block the demons relying solely on the power of the magic guards, so they will summon hunters from the community to resist the attacks of the river monsters.

Among them, Mingzhu Academy can increase credits and exchange for training resources by killing river monsters. The training location of Magic High School will also be chosen by the Huangpu River. The training results are closely related to the magic college entrance examination. Mingzhu Academy only needs to reach the A level of training for students.

"If I'm not mistaken, the guards may ask you to help."

"Please ask me to help?"

Mu Nujiao nodded and lowered the arm that was squeezing Fengluan.

"It's common sense. When an area is filled with too much death and yin energy, undead creatures will be born. Every year, the guards have to spend a lot of money to clean up the corpses. You should also understand the scarcity of undead in the country. Half of the dead soul vessels and stardust magic tools are imported."

Speaking of this, Mu Nujiao felt a little envious. People of her age could already command generals, but she didn't know when she would be able to fight a general alone.

"The way the guards deal with the residual souls is that you can take them away if you have the ability. After all, a poor quality soul vessel that can hold the residual souls of slaves costs five million, and a general-level vessel even costs twenty million. The guards will naturally be very happy that you can handle the souls."

"So, if I join Wei Fang, my future will be limitless." Bai Le thought thoughtfully, and he could deal with the remaining soul and spirit at will.

"What if there is no necromancer?"

Mu Nujiao looked at Bai Le as if he were a fool for the second time.

"But don't think too much. The ones you deal with are definitely the residual souls, and the Spirit Guards will definitely collect them themselves. The market price of a slave's residual soul is 10,000, which is enough for you to earn."

"Do you think I'm a fool? If the remaining souls are not dealt with within three minutes, they will dissipate. When the offensive subsides and it is my turn to collect the remaining souls, how many will be left?"

"Ah."

Mu Nujiao responded in a low voice.

······
Bocheng, rooftop dam of Teaching Building No. 3.

"Hello, the number you dialed is turned off. Please call again later..."

"Where is Bai Le? Why isn't he answering the phone?"

The Stardust Magic Weapon distributed by the school was swallowed by the little loach. Mo Fan immediately called Bai Le for help, but the call was not connected at all.

Helpless, Mo Fan had to seek help from Teacher Tang Yue. Teacher Tang Yue seemed to have a good relationship with Bai Le. Teacher Tang Yue should help him for Bai Le's sake.

The moonlight fell on the old rooftop with crisscrossing water pipes, and the shadow of half of the dark cloud just happened to divide the rooftop into a line of light and dark. A vague shadow first appeared from the area dividing light and dark, and then Teacher Tang Yue walked from the shadow of the dark cloud to the place where the moonlight shone.

After hearing about Mo Fan's predicament, the moonlight and shadow on Tang Yue's face kept interweaving.

"Can you do me a favor?"

After listening to Teacher Tang Yue's request, Mo Fan hesitated.

"Why, isn't this a good deal? I help you with the Stardust Magic Device, and you do me a small favor."

"I'm sorry, Xinxia, ​​please don't blame your brother."

Mo Fan agreed with tears in his eyes.
