The burns were not caused by poison. They would be fine as long as they were not exposed to the light of the evil eye. Everyone took out some medicine to treat their injuries while waiting for dawn to arrive.
Mofan was not going to tell the others how to find the Medusa's tracks. When it was almost dawn, Mofan secretly asked Zhao Manyan to release the Roving Desert Insects. He waited for Zhao Manyan's news.
Not long after, Zhao Manyan returned with a joyful look.
Mubai said disdainfully when he saw Zhao Manyan's reaction, "Do you have to be so happy just to take a piss?"
"What do you know!?" Zhao Manyan glared at him.
The three gathered together. Zhao Manyan took out something that looked like a ribbon. Even though it was covered in some strange substance, it was smooth and pretty.
"What's this?" Mubai asked.
"The hair of the young Medusa that has just shed. It's very close to us! Mofan, are you sure the Tear of the Medusa is worth 3.7 billion? "Zhao Manyan said.
"Thirty … thirty …" Mubai blurted out.
"Shh!" Mofan and Zhao Manyan both made a shushing gesture.
Mubai withheld his astonishment and lowered his head. He lowered his voice and said, "Is it really worth 3.7 billion?"
"It's true. For some reason, the female Medusa has acquired some of the Medusa's abilities. She can cast the Eyes of Vengeance on a group of people. We aren't the only ones in Egypt that are affected by the Eyes of Vengeance. Those people are waiting for the Tear of Vengeance to save their lives," Mofan said.
"Aren't you going to tell the people of the European University Institute?" Mubai said.
"Isn't that obvious? Why should we share the money with them? It's worth 3.7 billion. How much money would each person get? Besides, we've already helped them get rid of the Curse of the Medusa's Eyes. They should be thanking us, yet they still dare to split the money with us? "Mofan said.
"That's right. He's just a piece of trash who knows nothing but how to brag!" Zhao Manyan agreed.
"What about Heidi?" Mubai asked.
"Heidi is a little naive. It's better not to tell her about this so that she won't let the cat out of the bag. We'll tell her later," Mofan said.
"Mm, mm," Mubai nodded. He also felt that the reward should not be shared with the people of the European University Institute!
"Tell me the location, I'll go look for it first. If we can capture them, we'll retreat. If we can't, we'll find a way to trick others into helping us. That Super Mage Vani is still useful, "Mofan said.
The students of the European University Institute were not weak, especially their intern teacher, Vani, who was a Super Mage with a single Element. He could easily lend a hand in a crucial moment.
However, if he could settle it himself, Mofan wouldn't need to bother them. He would leave the matter of getting rich to himself!
…
The three did not move together, as it would alert the people of the European University Institute. Mofan pretended to be searching nearby while the others waited for him.
According to Zhao Manyan, Mofan went past a few dilapidated ancient halls and found the young Medusa's hair under an altar covered in plants.
The hair was quite valuable. Mofan gladly put it into his Space Ring. He also secretly released a Roving Desert Beetle to follow the young Medusa, who was still shedding her hair.
Mofan had the Dark Noble Mantle. It was extremely easy for him to sneak through the place without making any noise. Even if an adult Medusa was nearby, Mofan could perfectly conceal his presence and avoid them.
Zhao Manyan told Mofan that the young Medusa seemed to be alone. There were no signs of the adult Medusa or the Silver Snake Warriors nearby.
"Finally, I'm in luck!" Mofan was overjoyed.
He checked his surroundings, too. There was no sign of any Medusae nearby. Normally, the noble Medusae would ask their subordinates to guard the area. They would not allow low-level creatures to come close to their habitat.
The battle at the frontline was still going on. It was likely that the Medusa did not expect a human to come here!
"Tsk tsk ~"
The Roving Desert Beetle stopped in front of a dilapidated hall under the moonlight. It was excitedly gnawing on something that looked like silk under the weeds.
Mofan picked it up and took a closer look. It was the Medusa's hair. Most importantly, it was still warm, implying that the hair had only fallen off a few minutes ago!
Mofan was extremely excited. He was so close to earning the three hundred and seventy-seven billion. He did not expect to find such an unexpected reward in Egypt. He could easily buy some handy magic equipment with the three hundred and seventy-seven billion!
"Hey ~"
Suddenly, in the dilapidated hall, a petite figure flashed rapidly, as if she had discovered Mo Fan's presence. She quickly hid in a corner of the hall.
The moonlight poured down from the top of the hill like a curtain, covering the corner. Mofan was unable to see the figure in the corner, but he noticed a pair of eyes with a strange flicker!
"Come out, I know you're in there … let's make a deal, either you cry yourself and give me some tears, or I'll beat you until you cry!" Mofan went up and stared into the eyes.
The Medusa was not nearby. Mofan had already confirmed it!
The Silver Fighter was not around, either. Zhao Manyan had checked the place. It was a bold young Medusa, but Mofan had taken advantage of it!
"Big brother, are you a bad guy?" a timid, yet crisp voice came from the hall.
Mofan was startled.
What the heck!?
Did the young Medusa know how to speak?
"Why do you know how to speak human language?" Mofan was surprised. She was speaking in English, very standard!
Even though the Medusas were a combination of humans and snakes, and some of them even had the body and intelligence of humans, they were more like demon beasts after thousands of years. They did not have the slightest bit of humanity!
Why was the young Medusa able to speak? Her voice was so pleasant to the ears, like a silver bell in a bamboo forest being blown by the wind. It was so comfortable that it was easy to pity her.
"Big brother, I … I'm a human," the young girl said.
"Enough with the nonsense, come out from the corner, let me take a look at you," Mofan said.
The young girl moved her body and slowly came out from the corner. The moonlight shone on her smooth skin. It was as beautiful as a piece of white jade.
She slowly lifted her head under the moonlight. Wisps of thin hair fell to the ground. Her breathtakingly beautiful face made Mofan's heart skip a beat. Following it, her bright eyes looked at Mofan pitifully …
"Is she really a human?" Mofan was stunned. He stared at the young girl.
The young girl did not dare to come out completely. Her clothes were rags. Even though her skin was smooth, some parts of her body did look dirty.
Her body was trembling slightly. She looked cold. Her collarbone under her pale neck was very attractive. Her delicate appearance was enough to make one's heart ache.
"What's going on? What's going on?" Mofan stared at her in disbelief.
"Big brother, I'm not a Medusa. I was kidnapped. She likes to eat the hearts of young girls. She has already eaten the girls from the same village as me. I'm supposed to be next …" the young girl said in a trembling voice.
"You were kidnapped?" Mofan said.
"Mm, a group of people came to our village. They said they were Magicians and would teach us magic, so they took a few talented people away. In the end, they turned out to be a bunch of liars. They are raising a young Medusa. Every week, when she transforms, one of us will die, "the young girl said softly.
"Someone is raising a young Medusa? Who are they? "Mofan asked in astonishment.
"I don't know, they keep kidnapping people for the young Medusa … Big brother, are you a good person?" The young girl seemed a little scared. Her eyes were fixed on Mofan.
"I'm not a good person, but I won't hurt you. Do you know where the young Medusa is? "Mofan asked.
"It went to drink water, it's at the lake not far away …" the young girl said.
"Alright, I'll go look for it," Mofan said.
"Big brother, please save me, I don't want to be eaten," the young girl begged.
"Then … alright," Mofan could not bear to see the innocent young girl staying there.
He went over and helped the young girl up. The young girl was curled up in fear. Mofan could only see her tiny body and face.
The girl grabbed Mo Fan's hand and carefully rose to her feet. Her eyes were fixed on Mo Fan, as if she was being cautious too …
Mofan supported her. He suddenly pulled the young girl out from the darkness, exposing her to the moonlight.
"HAHAHA, do you think I'm stupid!?" Mofan burst out laughing. He quickly inserted the Dark Material into the young girl's body to immobilize her!
A young girl who only dared to expose half of her body to the moonlight came out from this damned place. If it wasn't because her lower body was a snake, then what was it?
How could Mofan believe her nonsense? Even if she knew the human language, Mofan was 100% sure that she was the young Medusa. Medusas were the best at lying. They could even make people have the illusion that they were perfect women. Mofan was not an ignorant youth who believed in fairy tales. How could he believe Medusa's nonsense?
Mofan laughed. He laughed at how naive this young Medusa was, using such a low-level lie to deceive him.
But at this moment, Mofan heard crying.
The young girl was crying in fright.
Mofan grabbed her and turned his gaze to her lower body …
Thin little butt, smooth long legs, and that secret little garden that he could not bear to look at …
"This … This …" Mofan was stunned again. To be precise, he was dumbfounded this time.
Not a snake!
Not a snake!
She was really a young girl!
The girl was scared out of her wits. She burst into tears, yet she did not dare to resist. Mo Fan's tug was too rough!
"Are you really human?" Mofan's face turned red.
He did not expect this to be a young girl and not the young Medusa. Furthermore, he was not hallucinating. What he saw was real!
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I thought you were lying. I thought you were the young Medusa …" Mofan hurriedly apologized.
