Full-Time Magister: The Evil Emperor Descends

At the logistics department of the western fortress, many teenagers were diligently cleaning up the bloodstains on the road with mops and buckets.

"I want to go to war, I don't want to do this kind of cleaning job!"

A boy threw down his broom and said angrily.

"The corpses must be cleared away promptly; piling them up can easily attract plague. Hangzhou is already shrouded in an unknown and terrible plague; what if the Western Fortress were to suffer the same fate..."

The boy named Wang Xiaojun had barely uttered the words when he quickly shook his head, shaking off the thought from his mind, and muttered to himself.

"Besides, it's not a plague, it's just a bite from a poisonous rat!"

"Hey kid, do you want to earn some military merit?"

Suddenly, she felt a tap on her shoulder and a voice rang in her ear, which startled Wang Xiaojun.

Startled, he immediately jumped aside before turning around to look behind him.

A young man in an officer's uniform stood with his hands behind his back, his long hair tied high behind his head. He was handsome, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and a tall and straight posture. He exuded a unique aura.

Upon seeing that it was a military officer, Wang Xiaojun quickly stood up straight, gave a military salute, and respectfully greeted him.

"Hello, sir!"

All the boys present also saw the officer appear and saluted and shouted.

"Good morning, sir!"

"Well, no need for formalities, you all continue with your work. I just need to talk to this kid about something."

Mo Xie smiled and waved to everyone, appearing kind and approachable. His military rank wasn't high, but it was certainly higher than these young men who weren't even formal military mages.

He smiled slightly and pointed at Wang Xiaojun.

"Young man, come with me."

After saying that, he put his hands behind his back, turned around and left.

"Uh, this..."

Feeling the curious and envious gazes around her, Wang Xiaojun scratched her head awkwardly. Seeing Mo Xie's figure gradually disappearing into the distance, she quickly put down the mop and bucket and hurried after him.

When they reached a secluded spot, Mo Xie stopped, turned around, and smiled at the young man before her, repeating what she had said earlier.

"Young man, do you want to earn military merit?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Xiaojun was taken aback and asked with some confusion.

"Sir, what do you mean by that?"

Moye did not answer, but instead asked a question.

"I heard you say before that this plague wasn't a real plague, but just being bitten by poisonous rats... What do you mean by that?"

"It's not a plague. I've had it before when I was catching rats. I got a lot of these poisonous sores on my hands, but as long as I applied the juice of the eagle-red grass leaves, everything would be fine!"

Wang Xiaojun answered truthfully with a serious expression.

"That's it..."

Mo Xie raised an eyebrow, touched his chin with his fingers, and smiled as he spoke.

"Come with me. If this works out, you'll make a fortune."

"Uh...what...I've made a fortune...Hey, sir, wait for me!"

Wang Xiaojun was still confused by what he had just said when she saw Mo Xie's figure disappear into the distance again. She quickly called out and followed after him.

On the observation deck, Mo Fan sat at the very edge, his eyes fixed on the distant, densely packed Xiling Mountains that had turned from blue to white.

The number of White Demon Eagles seems to be increasing. Just like humans stockpiling troops, they have already covered the undulating mountains. No one knows when they will launch their next attack. With such a huge number of White Demon Eagles, who knows how many deaths they will bring to this city of Hangzhou.

"Hey, Mo Fan, what are you pretending to be so profound for!"

A melodious and sweet voice rang out, instantly breaking the sorrowful and somber atmosphere. Mo Fan immediately lost his composure and said somewhat speechlessly.

"Lingling, why did you have to interrupt me at this time...?" "Tch~"

Before the two could even start arguing, a voice rang out from the stairwell, drawing their attention.

"Xiao Fan, Ling Ling, I'm back."

Hearing the sound, the two turned around and saw Mo Xie and Wang Xiaojun standing at the top of the stairs.

Wang Xiaojun looked ahead and saw a girl in a black and red plum blossom cheongsam walking quickly towards him. Looking at this graceful young beauty, he was almost speechless.

When has the fortress ever had such a beautiful little sister? Look at her adorable twin ponytails, her petite figure that's already taking shape, and her long, pink legs under her cheongsam. She'll definitely grow up to be a great beauty!

"Lingling, I... wait a minute, where did you get so many clothes?"

Mo Xie was about to speak when he was surprised to find that the sweet little nurse had transformed into a beautiful woman in a cheongsam in the short time he had been away. He was quite astonished.

"Hmph, it's just to make my brother feel a little better."

Leng Lingling gave a soft snort, pouted her cherry lips, and swayed her slender waist. The hem of her cheongsam swayed, and her pair of snow-white and slender legs made people want to touch them.

"Hehe, then I'll thank you, little sister..."

Mo Xie shook his head helplessly at this explanation, stroked Leng Lingling's little head, and repeated Wang Xiaojun's words.

"Are you telling the truth?"

Upon hearing this, Leng Lingling looked at Wang Xiaojun in surprise and asked again seriously.

She had been wondering what direct relationship these blood serums had with the plague, but now she understood completely!

The source of the plague was these blood potions, which were originally intended for healing. She had conducted experiments before and personally witnessed a mouse develop the disease after taking the blood potion!

Hearing the little girl's question, Wang Xiaojun was unconvinced and said seriously.

"Why would I lie to you? I have a gray eagle. It's not purebred and is often disliked by the animal trainer. It doesn't get enough to eat, so I always sneak into that forest to catch some large rabbits and mice for it to eat."

"Several times I encountered a poisonous rat monster and got infected with its sores. Gray Eagle gave me a kind of Eagle Red Grass that only grows in the Western Ridge."

"After I took it, I was fine in no time, and I never got any more sores when I encountered those poisonous rat monsters again."

Upon hearing this, Leng Lingling hurriedly asked.

"Do you still have that kind of eagle-red grass?"

Wang Xiaojun scratched the back of her head and said with a troubled expression.

"Hmm, that's all. Eagle Red Grass doesn't grow at all in this area, but it's as plentiful as weeds in the Western Ridge. We used to be able to manage to get some Eagle Red Grass, but now it's impossible. The White Demon Eagles are as volatile as a bunch of demons, entrenched in the Western Ridge, and they could launch an attack at any moment..."

"The Eagle Red Grass is in Xiling. Look at Xiling now... The feathers of the White Demon Eagle have covered the green of the mountains like leaves. If we can't get the Eagle Red Grass, how can we prove that what he said is true?"

Mo Fan frowned and said with a helpless expression.

Seeing Mo Fan shaking his head and sighing, Leng Lingling immediately pointed at him with her slender finger, pouted, and gave him a lecture.

"You're so stupid! We can't get close to Xiling, but we can have this kid catch a poisonous rat monster to dissect and analyze. As long as we can prove that the poisonous rat monster's blood poison is the same as the plague sores, then we can prove that the poisonous rat monster is the source of the plague!"

Mo Fan's eyes lit up, and he slammed his fist into his palm, saying excitedly.

"Haha, how come I didn't think of that!"

Mo Xie chuckled and shook his head, then looked at Wang Xiaojun, patted him heavily on the shoulder, and said with a smile.

"Xiaojun, let's go catch a few of those poisonous rat monsters together. Maybe with your clues, the plague in Hangzhou will be solved. You'll be doing a great job then."

"Yes, the poisonous rat monsters are in that forest ahead. Follow me, I have a way to lure them out!"

Upon hearing that it concerned the plague in Hangzhou, Wang Xiaojun immediately perked up and hurriedly spoke.

Mo Fan nodded and summoned the Swift Star Wolf without hesitation.

If the young man is right, then we have found a major breakthrough in the plague incident that has caused such a stir throughout Hangzhou! (End of Chapter)
