"It's just that Lingling is still too young. I've done some research over the years, and I realized that the creatures that are capable of producing such a unique Soul Seal aren't just ordinary creatures. As a matter of fact, even I don't dare to investigate any further, as I've been hindered by some dangerous creatures," Leng Qing told Mo Fan sternly.
Mofan was astounded. Leng Qing was a Vice Leader of the Enforcement Union. How was it possible that she was unable to solve the case with her strength and authority?
What exactly was the creature that could produce the Soul Mark? Judging from what Leng Qing had told him, Ling Ling's father must be a powerful Hunter!
"So the investigation that Ling Ling is doing now … she has been chasing after the demon creatures in the city, and has been accepting all kinds of quests, just to collect some random information?" Mofan asked.
"That's indeed the case. My identity is quite special. Once I go too deep, I'm bound to be hindered by some factions hiding in the dark. It might be more effective if Lingling is trying to find clues from the incidents of different demon beasts. After all, once I make my move, many things will change. Everything that is related to me will be erased," Leng Qing said.
Mofan frowned. He had a vague feeling that there was a huge secret behind it.
However, Mofan was still worried about Ling Ling's safety. If Leng Qing had mentioned that the investigation might expose some factions hiding in the dark, wouldn't Ling Ling stumble into them?
"Ling Ling isn't as simple as you think. Just let her be. Even if we try to stop her, she will insist on doing it … she has only reached the Soul Mark. It won't affect her too much," Leng Qing said calmly.
"Senior Sister Leng Qing, it seems like you do know a thing or two about it," Mofan said, looking at Leng Qing.
"So what if I do? Acting recklessly before I'm strong enough will only cost me my life," Leng Qing said.
…
Leng Qing did not say anything further. Mofan's curiosity was piqued.
Mofan immediately went to look for information related to Ling Ling's father. To Mofan's surprise, Qin Zhan was a Senior Hunter!
The only time Mo Fan had seen a Senior Hunter was during the incident with the Mother Scale Skin Phantom. Even now, he still could not forget the shocking sight of the enormous blue beast stomping down from the roof of the stadium. The Senior Hunter was indeed intimidating, with its own aura and magnificent background music!
What kind of terrifying Demon Hunting Mission could cause a Senior Hunter to die for no apparent reason??
Mofan could not find anything after investigating a few more things. He was only an Advanced Hunter, and the information that the Hunter Union had on Advanced Hunters was limited …
Mo Fan went to ask Professor Qiu Yuhua, hoping to learn more about the Soul Seal.
The dark red Soul Mark was definitely unique. If he could crack the mystery of the dark red Soul Mark, he would be able to find some useful clues.
Unfortunately, even someone as omniscient as Professor Qiu Yuhua raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise. Was it possible to have a dark red Soul Mark?
Mofan still could not find anything after searching for a long time. He had no choice but to sell the Warrior-level Soul Essence.
He would not be able to find any clues if he kept it. It was more practical to exchange it for some money. He had yet to find a Contracted Beast. It was said that raising a Contracted Beast was the most expensive thing.
…
The price of the Vampire Soul Essence was not bad. It was sold for twenty-five million RMB. It was a huge profit.
Including the money he had earned from the corpse of the Xuanwu Giant Lizard, Mofan had around forty million RMB on hand. Even though it would cost fifty million RMB to raise a Contracted Beast on its own, Mofan did not have the time to waste. It was better to improve his strength as soon as possible!
Mofan decided to pick an auspicious day. He always thought he had the aura and temperament of a main character. If others could buy a Black Dragon Egg, an Ancient Phoenix Egg, or a Heaven-Earth Devourer Beast's offspring by spending the price of a pigeon's egg, his luck should not be that bad.
"Zhao Manyan, what's that? Why does it look like it's inside a Trading Scroll? Don't tell me you're selling Star Atlas Books here? "asked Mofan.
Mofan discovered something interesting when he arrived at the Zhao Family's auction house.
After all, the auction was high-end and grand. Even if it was an auction, there wouldn't be a lot of people. The value of the items being auctioned could easily reach tens of millions. Therefore, the auction naturally wouldn't be as crowded as a marketplace.
However, at the back of the auction hall, Mo Fan discovered that there were many people coming and going. It felt extremely lively.
"Oh, they're not selling scrolls, they're selling lottery tickets," said Zhao Manyan.
"Selling lottery tickets? Are you f * * king kidding me, those are just a bunch of Magicians buying them, "said Mofan.
"It's like this. Most of the bounties that are announced are based on accurate information. The person who announces the bounties will have to sign a guarantee with the Hunter's Union, so the Hunters won't come back empty-handed. As a matter of fact, most of the information that people obtain in the wild is just groundless speculation. It goes without saying that the information won't be announced as a bounty. As such, everyone will write down the valuable but uncertain information in the scrolls, and sell them at a fixed price, "said Zhao Manyan.
"Are you serious? Are people really buying those?" said Mofan.
It was probably just some random gossip. Everyone should just share this kind of thing, but someone actually sold it. Did the mages have so much money that they had nowhere else to spend it?
"Brother, it's the age of information now. Not only do Hunters need to live well, it's more important for them to have accurate and extensive information … Anyway, as you can see, people are lining up to buy the scrolls," said Zhao Manyan calmly, glancing at the crowd in the hall at the back of the auction house.
"Then it's just like what you said, buying lottery tickets. If the information is real, it's a great deal. You'll be able to save a lot of money on buying accurate information and posting the bounties. If the information is fake, or outdated, it's a waste of effort," said Mofan.
