Chapter 45 Strange
"how is this possible?"

Without a magic weapon that could concentrate the mind, how could a beginner necromancer possibly resist his intermediate-level curse magic?

Bai Leke didn't have time to care about Black Hat's disbelief. He stepped on Black Hat's chest and interrogated him.

"Tell me what your purpose is. Maybe I'll show mercy and give you a quick death."

Bai Le summoned a bone knife and inserted it into the ground, stepping on the wound with his foot and exerting force.

"Do you really think you're safe? Ridiculous."

A lot of blood suddenly gushed out of Black Hat's mouth and he laughed ferociously.

"See your companion?"

"Jie Jie Jie······"

"It's really hard to imagine what it's like to be the eldest daughter of the Mu family."

The man in black hat on the ground soon lost his life, and his face hidden by the black hat was covered in blood. What was horrifying was that there were obvious marks of branding on his forehead. This kind of brand was most likely from a desperado who had been sentenced to death by the court.

Poisoned to death?
On the side, Mu Nujiao, who had already escaped, licked her rosy lips, and her cheeks inexplicably flushed. The three people trapped by the vines on the ground were also groaning in pain while unconscious, and the curse was still eroding their lives.

If you don't have the light and mind systems, you can only watch your life being devoured after being cursed by the evil, and it will be useless even if you kill the caster.

"Don't come here!"

Mu Nujiao shouted softly, stopping Bai Le from moving forward.

As she spoke, Mu Nujiao felt her mouth dry and her heart beat faster and faster.

Mu Nujiao's face was flushed, and her half-closed eyes were filled with crystal mist, sometimes fierce and sometimes charming. Her breathing became heavier and heavier, and the numbness in her bones made her unable to muster any strength.

She panted and released magic, and the seven emerald green stars turned into vines that separated the two of them. As long as Bai Le continued to move forward, the vines would be pulled out without hesitation and tie Bai Le up.

The desire that is about to burst out keeps hitting my heart, and if I am not careful, my upper and lower lips will be stained with water stains.

He glanced at Mu Nujiao, who was as impatient as a kitten, and he was not moved at all. As a gentleman, he would not do such a thing to take advantage of others. Is it that Xinxia is not good enough at licking ice cream, or Tangyue is not pretty enough.

"I have some antidote here. I'll give it to you if you need it."

Bai Le controlled the Holy Spirit Sword and turned it into three small swords, which he slashed at Lu Liang and the other two. The sword light tore through the evil spider's restraints and fell on the souls of the three people. After a muffled groan in pain, they stopped groaning.

Bai Le's Holy Spirit Sword can be used as light magic, although it is limited to the soul. For now, he can only attack the souls of three people to save his life.

Without waiting for Mu Nujiao's response, Bai Le couldn't just abandon her, so he tentatively walked over the vines, but the vines seemed not to notice and did not make any movement even when Bai Le stepped on them.

By the time Bai Le got close to Mu Nujiao, she could no longer suppress the rage in her heart and was struggling to comfort herself.

Bai Le suppressed the restlessness of the undead body and used the Holy Demon Guide to start to draw the holy and bright power of the soul. The vigor of the undead body gradually retreated under the light, and the light of the soul overflowed from the spiritual world and began to gather in between, and finally condensed into a pure and sacred pill.

This was a trick Bai Le accidentally developed when he was troubled by the transformation of the undead body. It could easily break the silver filth. Perhaps he had been longing for it for a long time, and the throbbing in his heart was like a dry field longing for irrigation. Mu Nujiao could not wait to swallow the pill.

A pair of hands grabbed Bai Le's fingers and stuffed them into her pink lips, wrapping Bai Le's fingertips softly and moistly.

The restlessness caused by the drugs was alleviated little by little by Bai Le's pure light, while the fingers were constantly being played with by the softness and wetness.

When the evil fire dissipated from her beating heart, Mu Nujiao's blurred eyes gradually became clear, but her hands subconsciously clenched Bai Le's fingers.

Not knowing whether the effect of the drug had worn off, Bai Le did not pull out his fingers, allowing Mu Nujiao to nibble on them. As the effect of the drug eased, Mu Nujiao stopped chewing, but Bai Le's fingers continued to stir like a pet.

The two looked at each other in silence, and then Bai Le pulled out his fingers and wiped them with a look of disgust.

Mu Nujiao turned her head away, controlled the vines to cover herself, and began to tidy up her wrinkled clothes.

Then the two of them rode on the Bone-Brake Dark Tiger and tied up the three unconscious people of the demon hunting team with vines and headed towards the gathering place.

"How did you get poisoned?"

"I don't know."

Mu Nujiao's voice was extremely cold, but the blush on her face that had not yet faded betrayed him.

"There aren't many opportunities to poison someone. Think about it carefully."

Bai Le and his group had been together since they had gathered. The poisoning needed to be done through an intermediary, so the only possibility was that there was a traitor in the team, which Bai Le did not point out. Mu Nujiao began to think carefully after hearing this. With her intelligence, she naturally understood the implication of Bai Le's words.

······
On the dike where the guards were stationed, the guard mages who had just repelled a wave of attacks dared not relax. The demons might launch another attack at any time, and they needed to stay vigilant at all times.

The calm water surface slowly surged. The high-level wind mage who killed the sand crocodile folded his wind wings and landed on the embankment, and began to talk with the officer who was commanding the mage.

"The flood season of the Yangtze River is about to end, and the offensive of the demons has begun to weaken. I think the garrison mission will be over soon." The high-level wind mage did not belong to the dike. He was temporarily dispatched by the guards to help the dike resist the offensive of the demons. He was somewhat happy that the mission was about to be over.

"We can't let our guard down yet. The monsters are extremely cunning and may launch a final general attack before the end of the flood season." The officer stared at the surface of the Huangpu River with a serious tone. Having dealt with river monsters for many years, he knew very well that the monsters were not as simple as they seemed.

Most of those attacking the dam defense line are crocodile monsters that are rampant in the Huangpu River. They are much more cunning than imagined, and they will launch an attack as soon as they sense that the defense line on the dam has weakened. When a large number of mages gather and release magic bombardment, the crocodile monsters will sense the star map and shrink back under the river surface, leaving the mages helpless against them.

Human mages have always been the weaker party, and can only build a line of defense to passively defend against the attacks of various demons. The development of human civilization requires a lot of resources, and the advancement and breeding of demons also requires a lot of resources.

The magic stones that drive trains and planes and ignite light in the city have an incomparable attraction to them. The flesh and blood of magicians and ordinary people also have a huge attraction to them.

Just imagine how many magical technological equipment there are in the entire city. These things are simply food for demons, and humans themselves are also their delicacy, so the confrontation between human magicians and demons has never stopped.

Their guardian mages are the first line of defense for mankind. This line of defense must be indestructible to keep the demons out of the security world. Otherwise, one demon is enough to massacre thousands of ordinary people who have no ability to resist.

"what is that?"

The high-level wind mage looked in the direction the officer pointed his finger and saw a large number of scales densely appearing on the surface of the Huangpu River, making the river surface pitch black.

　There is one more chapter. I went to the hospital today, so the update is a bit slow.
