Versatile Mage: Item Evolution Begins with Ice Scorpion

Chapter 39: Lightspeed Solution, Picking Eagle Red Grass

Looking at the densely packed abscesses, under the gaze of Leng Qing and the other girls, Bai Ye used poison magic to condense a thumb-thick, lifelike green centipede, and bit open an abscess to analyze it.

After a moment, Bai Ye grabbed the green centipede with red lines on it, put it into the dark green poison hole, and signaled the three women to follow him.

Bai Ye didn't speak until he arrived at a temporary base room of the Trial Council in Bai Town.

"Big sister, how safe is this room? Can you ensure that no one can eavesdrop on you?"

Bai Ye asked.

Leng Qing nodded and took out a special magic weapon from his arms. A faint white halo formed a special barrier that enveloped the entire room.

"This is a special barrier-type magic weapon inside the Inquisition. It can block the prying eyes of mind/sound/shadow mages. Now, Bai Ye, can you tell me about the analysis of poison magic just now?"

Leng Qing was wearing a navy blue, busty, slim-fitting cheongsam with an ancient flavor, with an exquisite golden bell tied between her collarbones, showing off her coolness and charm to the fullest.

However, at this moment, she only wanted to find out the truth on behalf of the trial.

"Senior Sister, I have analyzed this toxin. It is not snake venom, but more like rat venom. Those patients do not seem to be infected with the plague, but more like some kind of poisonous sore."

Bai Yeyi said it briefly.

"How do you know? Can you find any concrete evidence or a host for the toxin?"

Leng Qing raised his doubts.

"I am a poison mage, and I occasionally use some demons to experiment with newly refined mixed toxins. The toxin extracted from the patient this time is very consistent with the diseased blood in the body of a demon called Lingzhua Plague Rat.

This kind of rat demon is just a servant demon. Its fighting power is not even as good as that of the giant-eyed fishy rat. It is easy to find in some wild forests. Why don't we give it a try?"

Bai Ye looked at Senior Sister Leng Qing and said.

"Walk."

Leng Qing was also a man of swift and decisive character. The four of them finally found a clue and immediately decided to start the investigation from there.

Soon, the four came to a dense forest. Bai Ye summoned the Void Reaver, Kha'Zix, and ordered it to capture several Lingclaw Plague Rats living in the caves.

“Hehehe~!”

The Void Reaver - Kha'Zix nodded his inverted triangle head, and his figure turned into a wisp of wind afterimage, and disappeared into the dense forest in a few flashes.

Soon, in just a few breaths, Kha'Zix used the Wind Chain magic to grab eight half-dead poisonous rats and threw them to the ground.

Lingling put on protective gear and began the dissection with swift hands and feet.

"Strange blood?! Strange, am I so lucky?" Lingling was a little confused.

If you want to know whether it is luck or some kind of inner uneasy guess, the method is very simple, just continue the dissection.

Lingling was also able to figure out the problem, and she began to dissect the second, third, and so on, until the eighth Lingclaw plague rat.

What surprised Leng Qing and Mu Nujiao was that strange blood appeared in the body of each Lingzhua plague rat.

"This is not alien blood. Its energy fluctuations and aura are not pure. Instead, it carries a toxin. Lingling, dissect it carefully again."

Bai Ye shook his head and said, before he finished speaking, he took out a bottle of strange blood purchased from the Demon City Hunter Alliance from his personal space and asked Lingling to do a comparative experiment.

Soon, Lingling, with the help of reference objects and hints, found out the problem.

"Bai Ye is right. This is not alien blood, but a kind of diseased blood. Diseased blood and alien blood are very similar, even to the point of being indistinguishable from the real thing. Without strict analysis and comparison with authentic sample references, it is impossible to distinguish them..."

Lingling said with a serious face.

"So, this diseased blood can be mixed with the foreign blood to create a situation where fake blood is mixed with real blood. In other words, someone is using the diseased blood of the rat demon to make blood medicine and sell it, making huge profits by passing off inferior blood as good blood, thus causing this disaster?!"

Mu Nujiao took over Lingling's words and stated the only possibility with some disbelief.

"Now we just need to prove one thing, which is how to cure this poisonous sore caused by the blood of the Lingzhao plague rat. If it can be cured, then the problem will be solved."

Leng Qing opened her red lips and expressed her speculation.

"It's eagle red grass. I have a small batch of this plant in my personal space." Bai Ye said as he took out a few flaming red herbs.

The next thing was simple. With the help of Senior Sister Leng Qing's identity as the deputy chief judge, Bai Ye quickly cured the patient with the juice of the eagle red grass leaves.

Leng Qing's third system is the mind system. Under Bai Ye's advice to find out the mastermind behind the incident, she used her mind power to put the patient into a deep sleep.

"What should we do next? Bai Ye, you don't have enough Eagle Red Grass in your hand. How are you going to rescue the residents of Hangzhou?"

Leng Qingdai frowned slightly and spoke softly.

"Big sister, have you ever thought about this? Baizhen is the place where the poisonous sore plague first broke out. Could it be that this is where the mastermind hoarded the blood-sickness potion?
We can follow the clues to find out who is in charge of the blood warehouse and who is his superior. Who could do this without the tacit approval of a big shot?"

Bai Ye said seriously.

"Bai Ye, what you said makes sense. If you really find out the mastermind behind this, the Inquisition will give you a reward. Wait a moment, I will call Chief Judge Li Tian first."

Leng Qing took out his cell phone and started making a call.

Soon, the presiding judge Li Tian, the head of the Tang family Tang Zhong, the iron-headed boy Zhu Meng and others came over in person. They quickly traced back to the deputy presiding judge Wang Yi and the councilor Luo Mian who were responsible.

Zhu Meng, the iron-headed boy who realized that he was being used, immediately ordered the arrest of Luo Mian. Bai Ye took out a small batch of eagle red grass from his personal space and cured dozens of patients in front of several super-class mages.

"Congressman Zhu Meng, can we now be sure that the plague was not caused by the Totem Black Snake?"

Tang Zhong persuaded from the side.

"Alas, I was reckless this time. I have to thank the young wizard named Bai Ye. However, the amount of these eagle red grasses is not enough to cure so many patients in the entire city of Hangzhou."

Zhu Meng frowned and thought.

"As far as I know, this medicinal herb called Eagle Red Grass only grows in Xiling. Councillor Zhu Meng just needs to send someone to pick it back." Bai Ye suggested.

"That makes sense. I'll go there myself."

When Zhu Meng was about to take action himself, the chief palace guard Wu Pingjing came over with an anxious look on his face and whispered a few words in his ear.

"What?! The Lord of the Silver Dome is invading the Western Fortress with his White Magic Eagle Tribe? The border is in danger!"

Zhu Meng's face was full of disbelief.

"Tang Zhong, Li Tian, Yun Feng, Wu Pingjing, without further delay, the five of us will go and stop the Silver Sky Lord, just to pick the Eagle Red Grass."

After a brief moment of shock, Zhu Meng came to his senses and arranged the battle deployment. The next moment, he hesitated with an embarrassed look on his face.

"Congressman Zhu Meng, I am a high-level space cultivator and can do the job of picking eagle red grass, but I want the government votes in your hands."

Bai Ye took the opportunity to speak.

"Yes, as long as you pick the eagle red grass as soon as possible, I can give you the government vote in my hand."

After a brief pause, Zhu Meng nodded in agreement.

"My dear Bai Ye, thank you for helping Xuan She clear her name and find the real mastermind. I also have a government ticket in my hand, and I will give it to you when this is over."

Tang Zhong stroked his beard and stepped forward to make the promise.

"Thank you, Councillor Zhu Meng and Senior Tang Zhong, but the person who tied the bell must be the one who untied it. The Silver Dome Lord is a great monarch-level feathered demon. I think only the supreme monarch-level totem black snake in Hangzhou can deal with it or even drive it away. Can you let me see the black snake first?"

Bai Ye briefly analyzed the current battle situation and asked the two of them a question.

"of course can."

Soon, at the call of Tang Yue, who was full of guilt and at a loss, Bai Ye saw the totem black snake transformed into a large ball of blue-black mist and swam out from the mountains.

"Hiss~~!!!"

As the totem black snake coiled into a blue-black snake mountain came into Bai Ye's sight, the familiar entry extraction ability was triggered again.
