Chapter 119: Stop pretending, let’s show off
"I'm wrong, I'm wrong. I just said something wrong." Zhao Manyan sincerely admitted his mistake and immediately changed the subject after standing up:
"It's hard to find the shadow monster, but it shouldn't be that hard to find a person."
"Didn't the old man surnamed Bao say yesterday that this matter is of great importance? Can we ask Lingling for help? Or why not try to contact her?"
"I sent a message to Lingling yesterday, so the results won't come out so soon.
But since you mentioned it, I'll ask."
Wang Yu said this as he walked into the house, took out his cell phone and called Lingling.
"Lingling, have you found the location of the shadow monster?"
"Why do I feel like I've become your little maid? I'm in Hangzhou and I have to help you find clues in Shanghai."
There was a light voice mixed with a hint of resentment coming from the other end of the phone. Who could be so kind as to send her a message for help in the middle of the night? She couldn't sleep peacefully.
"Hehe, Lingling is so capable. We two rough guys can't live without you."
"Eh~ That's disgusting. I've found a clue."
"So fast???"
"Hehe~ Do you understand the value of the Detective Hunter Master? I'm just looking for some intelligence, just sprinkling some water~"
"The shadow monster is now in the hands of a man named Shen Mingxiao." Lingling said.
"I have some impression of Shen Mingxiao. He is one of the four young masters of the Magic City?"
"It's him, and he's teamed up with someone you and Mo Fan already know - Luo Song!"
"Luo Song. Haha, you are really familiar with me. Help me find them and locate their location."
"No problem." Lingling said simply, after all, these two idiots are her teammates.
Although they both just do things brute force most of the time, it has to be said that it is indeed useful.
And from the tone of Wang Yu and Mo Fan, she could clearly feel that this mission of finding the shadow monster seemed to be very important to them.
It seems that it is not only about the main campus competition, otherwise grandpa would not have asked them to contact him.
"They are now hiding in a courier warehouse south of Mingzhu Academy. The location has been sent." Lingling is really efficient. The hunter master who is proficient in tracking and locking is indeed extraordinary.
"Okay, help us spread the news later. Say that we will bring the shadow monster to the taming cage in the early morning."
“I want you to make sure that everyone taking the test knows this news, and especially mention Mo Fan and me,” Wang Yu said.
"What are you going to do???"
"Use yourself as bait to lure the snake out of its hole!!!"
Wang Yu said calmly, "These bastards in the Black Court are really good at hiding their identities, apart from anything else."
So we had to cast a wide net and let them expose themselves.
The shadow monsters are in their hands, and all students taking the test will attack them, including those from the Black Church.
Then they can catch these sewer rats!!!
After hanging up the phone and returning to the house, Wang Yu immediately told everyone about his plan.
Mo Fan volunteered to take away the shadow monster. With him and Wang Yu, who were the strongest and good at hiding, this operation would be foolproof.
As night fell, the stars dotted the deep night sky. Wang Yu and Mo Fan changed into black sweatshirts that were easy to sneak into, and chose the most covert route to sneak into the shadows and approach the warehouse.
Their steps were light and almost silent, like nocturnal cats, and every breath was in sync with the rhythm of nature.
The door of the warehouse was gently pushed open, and it was dark inside. Only a few faint rays of light came in from the shabby windows, shining on the scattered debris on the ground.
Wang Yu and Mo Fan entered quietly through the gap in the gate and soon found their target.
Because only this room was filled with a cold air that was not suitable for this season. That was because in the center of the room there were thick strips of ice locking up a creature about the size of a leopard.
The creature had so much hair that it even covered its eyes, and its long tail glowed brightly in the dark, making it particularly eye-catching.
This is the shadow monster that all the mid-level mages have been searching for in this main campus competition.
Shen Mingxiao and his team did have some tricks up their sleeves and took advantage of the information gap, so they found it in just a few days.
Wang Yu looked around and found that Shen Mingxiao and Luo Song were not in the warehouse. There were only three unknown guys in charge of guarding the shadow monster.
The three guys were not paying much attention, half leaning against the wall and drowsy, apparently unaware of the impending crisis.
With the cover of Wang Yu's magical power, even the sensitive shadow monster did not notice that there were two more people in the room.
“Let’s just do it. This news will be announced sooner or later anyway.” Mo Fan said softly.
"Well, just knock out the three people and the beast. Pay attention to the strength and let these guys sleep more." Wang Yu nodded.
"Hey, I have experience with this."
After saying that, the two of them slowly walked out of the darkness. At this point the shadow monster finally noticed something was wrong, and it growled as it was firmly held in the ice lock, causing the surrounding chains to shake and make crisp sounds.
"Beast! What are you doing? Who are you?!"
With the quick cooperation of Wang Yu and Mo Fan, the shadow monster and the three guards soon all fell unconscious with their heads dug into the ground.
Afterwards, Wang Yu used telekinesis to drag the shadow beast's bulky body back into the shadows, with Mo Fan following closely behind.
At this time, Shen Mingxiao and Luo Song had no idea what was going on. They thought they had won and were dining at a Hong Kong restaurant.
They were very proud of themselves for successfully capturing the shadow beast before anyone else.
But soon they stopped laughing.
After Wang Yu and others returned, they announced the news as planned. Shen Mingxiao also received a call from his eldest brother Shen Lin, and learned that Wang Yu and others would soon appear in the taming cage with the shadow monster.
Shen Mingxiao and Luo Song were both stunned. They didn't believe it at first, but when they rushed to the old warehouse, they really found that the warehouse door was wide open.
There were no shadow monsters inside. There were only his three teammates who were originally guarding here and had fainted on the ground.
"These bastards actually robbed our escort. Let's go and settle the score with them!" Shen Mingxiao was suddenly furious.
The shadow monster that they had captured with so much effort was stolen. With Shen Mingxiao's arrogance, how could he tolerate such a thing?
Luo Song was even more angry. Why were Wang Yu and Mo Fan here again? Did they have a grudge against him? They had gone against him time and time again. This time, he would not let them go no matter what!!!
At the same time, many students had gathered near the animal training cage at Mingzhu Academy.
This is because Wang Yu and others released the news that they had captured the Shadow Monster, and attached a short video of the Shadow Monster with them.
Many students came after hearing the news, all wanting to get a piece of the pie, and the scene was very chaotic. "Damn it, I must cut these bastards into potato towers. They even called everyone here." Shen Mingxiao was almost going crazy.
They spent so much effort to get the Shadow Beast, but as soon as the news was made public, a bunch of idiots came to get a piece of the pie.
No matter how powerful Shen Mingxiao is, there is no way he can compete with nearly a thousand students.
"What were Wang Yu and the others thinking? Instead of secretly grabbing the fruits of victory, they actually sent it to a group???"
"Do you think they will play a trick on us?"
"Whether it's a joke or not, you'll know later."
"Is this just a prank, or are the two devils so confident in their own abilities that they are fearless?"
"Phantom Wolf, I saw the Phantom Wolf"
"The shadow monster is also there, being dragged behind by the ghost wolf beast!!"
"Oh my god, big and small demons are here. These two guys are together. I seem to have seen a sensation that is no less than the sensation caused by the freshman beast fighting competition!!!"
"God Mu Nu and Goddess Ai have indeed mixed up with the big and small demon kings, my goddesses!!!"
Suddenly, this seemingly quiet corner of the campus became abuzz, and almost everyone had a question in their mind: Is there something wrong with these people's brains???
Wang Yu and his companions arrived as scheduled. They walked straight along the asphalt road lined with maple trees.
Wang Yu walked in front, Mu Nujiao and Ai Tutu stood on both sides, with the Phantom Wolf dragging the Shadow Beast in the middle, and Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan guarding at the end.
On both sides of the maple trees, students could be seen everywhere using low-level means to hide their bodies. They all looked dazed, unable to believe that they were really coming here dragging the shadow monster.
At the end of the road, there is a square with a fountain. Among the fountains stand several statues of summoned beasts. These statues are soaked in water and have grown some sphagnum moss, which looks very old.
Behind the statue, Bai Zangfeng and his team members were hiding. They stared at the three people who had already walked here, and they also looked at each other.
On the big tree on the other side of the statue by the pool, the gentlemanly-looking Jia Wenqing and his senior Fu Tianming also widened their eyes in disbelief.
The few of them continued to move forward, and at this time some people could no longer hold back and surrounded them.
But no one dared to take the first step.
Everyone knows that the big and small demons are extremely powerful, and now there is another one, Mu Nujiao.
If I go up there, I’ll probably be killed instantly just like during the welcome ceremony.
What's more, they also have a companion with blond hair and Ai Tutu with an exaggerated figure. Everyone who knows them knows that they are both from powerful families.
With so many people present, whoever strikes first will suffer, whoever strikes first will be embarrassed, no one wants to be the first to make a move!!!
"It's been a long time since I've felt the center of attention. No wonder you two acted so arrogantly during the beast fighting competition. I feel like provoking you now." Zhao Manyan said with a laugh.
"Yeah. This feeling is like a needle prickling." Ai Tutu also echoed, and his walking posture unconsciously became arrogant, shaking from time to time.
“Hehehe, it feels great that so many negative emotions have come to my mind before anything happens.” Wang Yu also couldn’t hide his smile.
Mu Nujiao behaved very calmly as usual, staring quietly around, searching for those who might be spies of the Black Court.
When a few people reached the center of the pool in the square, more and more people surrounded them, but still no one dared to take an extra step forward without authorization.
The shadow monster was dragged by the ghost wolf beast. Like several others, the ghost wolf beast did not show any timidity when faced with being surrounded by so many magicians.
Wang Yu and the other two glanced at the group of people, then pointed at the shadow monster behind them and asked with a smile:
“Who wants???”
Who wants it??? Everyone cursed in their hearts, isn’t this nonsense? Who here doesn’t want it?
"By the way, there is a very special spring water in my hometown. I was planning to sign a contract with this shadow monster, but this guy swallowed the spring water I put in the bottle."
“If you want the Shadow Beast, take it. What I want is the spring water in here.” Mo Fan suddenly said loudly.
What he said was very straightforward, quite straightforward.
It's just telling those bastards of the Black Church hiding among the students, isn't that why you're targeting me? The Holy Spring is right here.
No, it’s in the belly of the shadow monster now. If you have the guts, go and snatch it from these nearly one thousand students!
".Do they know our purpose?" Fu Tianming hesitated.
"They are trying to lure us." A student next to him frowned slightly.
"So what if we lure them? Everyone is trying to grab the Shadow Beast, so what if we grab it? We won't be exposed!"
"Yes, this is our only chance. I don't want to go back to see the deacon if the mission fails."
"Master Priest, what should we do next? We all listen to you."
After some discussion, everyone focused their attention on the man in black in the middle of the team.
If you look closely, you will find that he is the black-robed priest who was so angry and screaming at the top of his lungs that day.
He was not very old, so it was easy for him to disguise himself as a college student.
At this moment, he stood there like a sculpture, still dressed in black, staring at Wang Yu and others in the distance with resentment in his eyes.
If looks could kill, they would have been turned to pieces under his gaze!!!
The culprits who killed his beloved baby were now trying to lure him out on purpose.
Good, good, it's really outrageous!!!
He wanted to see how powerful these guys were. After all, in this chaos, fists and feet were useless and casualties were unlikely to occur.
The competition at the main campus is not like the welcome ceremony. There are always people protecting and treating the audience! ! !
"Neither Di Shengquan nor any of you can escape!!!"
"Sir, I just checked, and the breath of the shadow monster does come from the breath of the earth's holy spring. The earth's holy spring is indeed in the belly of the shadow monster. It cannot be faked."
"Sir, we have confirmed that the people from the Inquisition are not nearby. As long as we deceive the school, this operation will never be exposed."
Huiyi, who was also disguised as a student, walked over and said that the previous Huiyi had died, and he, the original Huiqi, became Huiyi.
There are many corrupt people, and in the Black Court, seniority is also required to rank people.
The priest in black nodded. Since someone wanted to die, he would help him.
"Don't use the power of the Church for now, grab the Shadow Beast first!"
