A strange, blood-red glow slowly appeared on Mofan's body. Mofan's dark brown eyes gradually turned cold. Even Mu Ningxue felt an unfamiliar aura looming over Mofan when she looked at him.
"Mofan, what are you doing?" Ling Ling's voice suddenly came from the communication device.
"Mu Ningxue's poison has changed. I don't have the time to waste on these scum," Mofan said disdainfully.
"Don't you dare do anything reckless. The Black Vatican is vicious. If they know it's you, not only will they not give you the antidote, they might even make it worse. Besides, even if you do find the antidote, you're already beyond saving. This isn't Dongting Lake, nor is it the Kingdom of the Undead. There's nothing for you to kill without restraint and absorb the Soul Essences … there are only around seven hundred thousand people on this island. Can you really guarantee that you won't lose your mind and slaughter them all when your heart is invaded by the demon? "Ling Ling said sternly.
Mofan's bloodshot eyes cleared up when he heard Ling Ling's words.
The only way Mofan could think of to resolve the situation that Mu Ningxue was in was to demonize. He had to eliminate the people of the Black Vatican in the shortest time possible, and the poison would not have any effect on him after demonizing.
However, Mofan shuddered when Ling Ling said the last sentence.
She was right, this was not a horde of demon creatures, nor was it a nest of demon creatures. There were only a few hundred thousand people on Chongming Island.
The price of demonizing was not only a drop in his cultivation, but he would also have to sacrifice countless living creatures and devour their souls. Mofan had already experienced the pain at Dongting Lake. It would force him into a dead end and turn him into a demon. He would be no different from the failed demonization experiments …
He couldn't do it here. Not only would he not be able to save Mu Ningxue, he would also cause an even greater disaster!
"Mofan …"
"I understand," Mofan interrupted Ling Ling's persuasion.
Taking a deep breath, Mofan tried his best to calm down his restless demonic nebula. If everything had to be solved by using demons, he would really degenerate into a full-fledged demon.
"If the poison happens to someone else, it would be more dangerous. Her situation isn't as bad as you think. As long as she uses the Ice Domain to freeze herself, the blood in her body …" Ling Ling said quickly.
"She did," Mofan replied.
"That's good. She's much calmer than you. You're a Hunter Master now. Don't be so rash, "Ling Ling said.
Mofan was speechless when he heard Ling Ling's lecture. He was being scolded by a little girl in her teens …
"Have you found a way to cure the poison?" Mofan asked.
"Not yet."
"…" Mofan did not know what to say.
"But I've made an important discovery," Ling Ling said.
"What discovery?"
"I've connected it to my database. After analyzing it, I've discovered that the poison is somehow related to a quest we've completed in the past," Ling Ling said.
"I've encountered something like this before?" Mofan asked in surprise.
"Do you remember the Mother Scale Skin Phantom? It's the parasitic creature that can turn living humans into monsters after consuming their blood? Even though the creature's level isn't very high, it's extremely dangerous. It can cause an immeasurable amount of deaths in a short period of time. "
"During the time we were at the ranch, the tea we drank probably contained some sort of extremely tiny venomous insect. The venomous insect will lurk in the human body, and if it doesn't receive any signal from the mother insect, it will most likely automatically die in our body not long after. If the Mother Scale Skin Phantom sends out a signal, the poisonous insects will start to destroy the bodies of the humans, including their blood, organs, and muscles … "Ling Ling explained to Mofan.
"Poisonous insects, Mother Scale Skin Phantom? So you're saying that if we find the Mother Scale Skin Phantom and kill it, the poisonous insects hiding in everyone's bodies will die too? "Mofan blurted out in surprise.
Mofan clearly remembered that the Mother Scale Skin Phantom was the source of the mutation. When the Mother Scale Skin Phantom died, everyone in the stadium would return to normal.
If what Ling Ling said was true, and everyone's life and death were controlled by the Mother Scale Skin Phantom, everything would be fine once the Mother Scale Skin Phantom was taken care of!
"Yes, the Mother Scale Skin Phantom is the key. Also, this thing should have some other terrifying abilities! "Ling Ling's voice deepened.
"You're saying … the poisonous blood isn't the scariest part?" Mofan was suddenly stunned.
…
In the middle room of the third floor of the main building, Ling Ling jumped down from her chair while hugging her computer. She quickly walked to the window.
She pulled open the window. She had a wide view from here. She could see the entrance of the manor at a glance.
On the ground, there were many charred corpses lying everywhere. Under the illumination of the manor's street lamps, it looked extremely horrifying.
The cold wind kept blowing, and the charred skin of the corpses was constantly being blown into black dust, which filled the air above the manor …
Many people subconsciously thought that these dried and charred corpses would slowly turn into powder. After all, their body tissues had been completely destroyed. However, when Lingling discovered that the Sudden-Death Poison Jellyfish and the Mother Scale Skin Phantom had similar toxic contaminants, she would look out the window every five minutes.
Death was a tragic end for the people who were poisoned. Ling Ling sincerely hoped that the Black Vatican's evil magic was not as crazy as she had imagined. However, it turned out that the Black Vatican was doing something even more unexpected!
"Creak … creak … creak … creak …"
Cracks began to appear on the charred and dried skin due to the cold wind. These cracks were slowly falling off from the shriveled bodies to the ground …
Skin that looked as if it had been reborn appeared where the skin had split open. However, if one thought that it was the smooth texture and yellowish-white skin of a human, one would be gravely mistaken!
The skin of the corpse of the Golden Battle Hunters that was the first to be poisoned started peeling off. Red, rough, sticky, and scarred skin was slowly being exposed!
The person who was already dead seemed to have awoken from a dream. He actually sat up straight from the black ashes on the ground. A pair of large green eyes stared straight ahead. In this night that was already filled with a terrifying aura, it was even more inconceivable and hair-raising!!!
"As I thought …" Ling Ling pulled the curtains tightly. The thing she did not want to happen had still happened. Even if the people of the Enforcement Union were to arrive, they would only be struggling to deal with the corpses that had mutated. It would be difficult for them to stabilize the situation.
"Is the situation bad?" asked Mo Fan.
"Mmm, it's unlikely that we'll be able to hold them off until the people of the Enforcement Union come to our rescue. The corpses that have mutated with black blood will turn into monsters, just like the first time. The Sudden-Death Poison Queen is obviously a lot stronger than the Scale Skin Demon, so the monsters that have woken up will be a lot stronger than when we first encountered them," said Ling Ling.
"Alright, do you have any good news for me?" asked Mo Fan.
"Yes, your demon genes seem to be immune to the poison," replied Ling Ling.
"That's good news, but why is that?" asked Mo Fan in surprise.
"From the perspective of mutation, you are the most poisonous one. If these parasitic poison queens want to mutate in your body, the chances of them killing you are the same, unless you drink the bacteria in the tap water," said Ling Ling.
"…" Mo Fan understood the explanation, but why did Mo Fan not feel proud at all?
…
Either way, Ling Ling did bring some good news to Mo Fan. No wonder Mu Ningxue was poisoned after taking a few sips of the tea, while he was perfectly fine.
That was good enough. He did not have to worry too much. He could just kill the people of the Black Vatican on sight!
Mo Fan was like a volcano that was about to erupt because of Mu Ningxue's incident. He finally did not have to hold it in anymore!
Mo Fan turned around and left the dungeon. He was now in the cells of the Black Vatican. It was a lot safer than before.
"Have you found the location of the Sudden-Death Poison Queen?" asked Mo Fan.
"The soil you gave me was mixed with the poison. It's easy to track, so you just have to follow my instructions. However, be careful, there are Blue Deacons here. You can ignore the Gray Priests and Black Deacons of the Black Vatican, but you have to be careful of the Blue Deacons. Also, don't use the power of the Demon Element. It's better not to touch it," said Ling Ling.
"Don't worry. I didn't dare to come here because I'm not confident enough. I'll send these sons of bitches to Hell in the most violent way possible! "
Mo Fan left the dungeon after finishing the sentence.
Unfortunately, Mo Fan bumped into a man wearing gold-rimmed glasses not long after he left the dungeon. The man had an expectant and perverted grin on his face, as if something satisfying was going to happen in the dungeon.
Zhao Pinlin was quite surprised at the stairs. He stared at Mo Fan, who had barged into the dungeon all of a sudden.
Damn it, how did the kid get in here? This place was the headquarters of the Black Vatican. Was he really that lucky that he did not stumble into any of the Black Vatican's disciples on patrol?
"It's true that you chose to barge into Hell when there's a path to Heaven. Since you've stumbled into this place and seen all this, you won't be leaving here alive tonight," Zhao Pinlin laughed. He had become extremely cruel over the past few days.
However, he enjoyed the feeling of being able to control someone's life and freedom!
"You're exaggerating by saying that I came here by mistake. I followed the scent of prey here. By the way, let me tell you, it's true that I'm a full-time student, but I'm also a half-time Hunter that specializes in hunting scum like you, who are worse than demon creatures!" Mo Fan raised his gaze. When he stared at Zhao Pinlin, the disdain and sharpness in his eyes immediately turned into a sword, stabbing at the weak Zhao Pinlin.
"Humph, so what if you're a Magician? The guy beside me is enough to tear you into pieces. Oh, no, I can't let you die so easily. I've been displeased with you for a long time. Just wait until you and Wang Xuxu turn into my Dark Beast Servants!" Zhao Pinlin took a step back.
At that moment, a gray deformed monster with cursed runes all over its body appeared behind him. Its green eyes emitted a breathtaking glow in the dark dungeon. Guo Wenyi and Rong Sheng, the two ordinary people, immediately fell to the ground in fright.
When he saw the Cursed Beast slowly approaching Mo Fan through the dungeon, Zhao Pinlin laughed again, "This is a Cursed Beast, not a lowly creature like the Dark Beast Monsters. Its strength has reached the Warrior-level. For someone like you …"
Before Zhao Pinlin could finish his sentence, Mo Fan's dark brown eyes suddenly emitted a bright silver glow. The pair of eyes were filled with some kind of magic, and even carried a kind of arrogance that looked down on everything.
The silver glow shone brightly in the dungeon. Mo Fan made his move at lightning speed. His palm formed a claw, and with the transmission of his Telekinesis, he accurately grabbed the Cursed Beast's neck!
The Cursed Beast struggled with all its might, but it was unable to shake off Mofan's Spatial Intent Void Claw.
Like lifting a little chick, the Cursed Beast was lifted into the air by Mo Fan. It was as easy as blowing off dust.
"You're talking about warlord level, right?" Mo Fan also started laughing, laughing wildly!
The illusory claw loosened and the Cursed Beast's body paused in midair. Before it could fall, Mofan clenched his fist. In an instant, countless lightning bolts shot out from the gaps of his fist, forming an extremely thick thunderbolt in midair!
The Thunderbolt flew out horizontally. It was dazzling, and its power was incomparably shocking. As the Cursed Beast fell, its body was directly penetrated by the Thunderbolt. A large charred hole appeared in the front of its body, and there was also a hole on its back!
After reaching the Advanced Level of the Lightning Element, Mofan's control of the Lightning Element had improved tremendously. The Intermediate Spell he cast was no longer limited to the form of the Thunderbolt descending from the sky. He could now change its form according to the strength of his control …
That being said, even without the problem of his control, Mofan had long reached the level of being able to kill a Warrior-level creature in an instant!
The horizontal Thunderbolt only lasted for a brief moment. It was so brief that Zhao Pinlin's proud words from before were still lingering on his lips …
Zhao Pinlin glanced at the corpse of the Cursed Beast and immediately suspected that Fang Shaoli was lying to him. A Warrior-level creature could easily kill a hundred of Mofan's strength. How could it be killed in the blink of an eye!?
