Versatile Mage: Started as Gengar and was selected for the National Government Tournament

Chapter 145: Siren hybrid wizard?

"And one of our team's substitutes, Li Kaifeng, has the school union behind him... Let's put it this way, if he were kicked out of the National Government team for no reason, within a month, all the magic high schools south of the Yangtze River in the country would be paralyzed. All of them!" Zhao Manyan emphasized.

"Holy shit, what's going on?" Mo Fan was shocked.

"When you were in Magic High School, the Stardust Magical Devices provided by the school, remember... even all the magical instruments in Magic High School were developed and provided by Li Kaifeng's father, grandfather, and grandfather," Zhao Manyan said.

"Well, so, I think I've received some favor from their family?" Mo Fan recalled the time when Little Loach ate the Stardust Magic Weapon at school.

"Mu Tingying, from the Mu clan, you should know this, I don't need to explain it further," Zhao Manyan said. "Ai Jiangtu and Nanjue represent the major military regions..."

Speaking of the military, Mo Fan couldn't help but think of Zhan Kong.

"And Zu Jiming and Guan Yu..."

"So, don't act like a fool. Think about it yourself. The big man behind you must have put a lot of effort into getting you, a grassroots, into the team and making you a regular member," Zhao Manyan said seriously.

"The big guy behind me?"

Mo Fan scratched his head, feeling confused.

Is there a big shot behind me? How come I don’t know?
"What the hell..."

Zhao Manyan gritted his teeth.

I spent so much money and used so many connections to get a substitute, and I couldn't help cursing in my heart.

"Brother, I don't know any adults at all. If you want to talk about people with status, I only know President Han Ji and Boss Zhan Kong. Oh, yes, there is also Dean Xiao. Aren't they the presidents of the Ancient Capital Bell Tower, a military mage, and the dean of the academy, so their status is not that high." Mo Fan said helplessly.

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to tell you."

Zhao Manyan's mouth twitched, and he felt tired.

……

……

Singapore, the hub of magic trade in Southeast Asia.

The sea breeze, wrapped in a salty and fishy smell, blew on my face.

Chu Ming stood at the edge of the deck, squinting at the outline of the island shrouded in gray fog in the distance.

"Xingdao City, this damn place doesn't even have a seabird."

Zhao Manyan's short golden hair was blown into a mess. He held a glass of iced juice in his hand and couldn't help but complain.

Chu Ming didn't respond and flipped through the information in his hand again.

After arriving in Singapore.

He received training tasks from his mentors.

Help local officials investigate the "Siren's Curse."

Originally, this matter had nothing to do with them.

But the relationships among local forces in Singapore are too complicated to resolve the problem on their own.

The local area is divided into three forces.

Official Magic Association, Nanyang Witch Clan, and Mixed-Blood Mage Association.

Most of the members of the official magic association are of Chinese descent, most of whom are of Chinese descent.

As for the Nanyang witch tribe.

They are the original jungle indigenous people of the archipelago countries of Singapore and Indonesia.

They inherit the ancient voodoo secrets, are good at curses and poisonous insect control, and have a delicate relationship with the local government.

And the Half-Blood Mage Association.

It was originally a secret organization.

Their ancestors were originally sacrificed by the indigenous people to the sea monster.

Due to geographical reasons, in the beginning, all tribes living in this land needed to offer sacrifices to the Sirens in order to survive.

But the siren did not devour all the sacrifices.

A large number of human women were forced into unions.

Thus, the hybrid descendants of the Siren were born.

Three major forces.

As of today, a balance has been reached between them.

Among them, the Mixed-Blood Mage Association and the Nanyang Witch Clan have a natural hatred.

But because of its demon bloodline.

Half-blood mages are rejected by mainstream mages.

In short, it's a tangled mess.

Now, with the sudden outbreak of the Siren Curse, the Half-Blood Mage Association and the Witch Clan are suspicious of each other.

The local magic association has always been a fence-sitter, wavering between the two sides and has long lost trust.

Ultimately, the local forces decided to ask the Eastern powers to intervene.

Therefore, the task of investigating the "Siren's Curse" fell on the shoulders of Chu Ming and other members of the National Government Team.

……

Star Island City.

The island pier was deserted.

A dilapidated fishing boat was tied to a wooden pile, its hull covered with blue-black moss.

Nan Rongni released plant vines.

However, as soon as the vines stretched out, a black gas suddenly emerged from the moss on the fishing boat, corroding it and withering it.

Then, the black gas quickly flowed towards the owner of the vine.

Mu Ningxue, who was beside Nan Rongni, quickly released ice magic. The power of ice suddenly spread out, freezing the black air into a block.

"This seems to be some kind of parasite?"

Chu Ming sensed it for a while and was surprised to find that this thing was not dead even under Mu Ningxue's ice.

This thing contains the characteristics of both poisonous insects and undead?
Suddenly, at this moment.

It seems that this ball of black energy was triggered.

The shop closest to the pier.

There was a bang and the sound of glass breaking was heard.

Followed by.

One by one, centipede-like creatures half the height of a human fell out, and the densely packed compound eyes on their shells began to rotate.

"The Voodoo Centipede! This is a poisonous insect commonly used by the local Wu tribe!" Jiang Yu's face suddenly changed. "The information says that if you are touched by this thing, you will enter a state of poisoning and curse at the same time..."

Following the noise coming from the first shop.

Followed by.

The entire island seemed to be awakened, and in the shadows of the entire street, creatures began to wriggle.

at the same time.

Pale silk threads suddenly drooped from the eaves, with insect pupae hanging at the end of each thread. Black beetles flew out from them, and human face-like patterns were revealed when their shells opened and closed.

"These Nanyang mages, what are they doing raising so many bugs at home for no reason?"

"Fire-burst!"

Mo Fan cursed and waved his hand to blast away the insect swarm, but the moment the flames touched the insect corpses, they curled back into a green poisonous fire.

"Don't use elemental magic. These bugs feed on magical energy. They seem to be parasitized by something!"

Chu Ming shouted loudly, and the space element turned into an invisible giant hand to shatter the approaching swarm of insects.

Zhao Manyan hastily deployed his light shield. A centipede crashed into the light barrier, splashing putrid fluid. With a hissing sound, the light shield visibly thinned. "Shit! This island looks completely ruined! Old Chu, think of a solution!"

Anxious moment.

Suddenly, a clear bell sound was heard in the air.

The insect swarm suddenly stiffened, as if the signal was interrupted.

Chu Ming turned around and saw a girl in an indigo robe standing at the entrance of the alley.

Her skin was covered with light blue scales, the cheek-like organs behind her ears opened and closed slightly, and the bone bell in her hand was still vibrating.

"Outsiders, this is not the place for you."

The girl had a hoarse voice and her pupils were vertical like those of a cold-blooded animal.

Chu Ming keenly caught a glimpse of the tattoo on her neck, a totem of a human face and a fish tail intertwined.

"Are you a half-blood wizard?"

Chu Ming asked.

Nan Rongni took a decisive step forward, and the vines silently wrapped around the other person's ankles.

The girl sneered, and waves suddenly rose from under her feet.

The vines withered the moment they touched the water, and she turned into a shadow and retreated ten meters away.

"Minggu Temple." She threw a shell and nailed it at Chu Ming's feet. "If you want to solve the problem, follow this shell."

Chu Ming stroked the edge of the shell and suddenly felt his heart beating violently. It was not from nervousness, but from the surge of blood.

Followed by.

A long, low hum came from the bottom of the sea, and the whole island trembled.

"Oh shit……"

Mo Fan felt the ground tremble, staring at the sea surface that was glowing red, and cursed, "I must double the reward for this mission!"
