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

Chapter 175 Mu Ningxue's Determination
Portugal.

The city of Tinoaia.

At this time, the wooden boardwalk at the port was already crowded with people.

Chu Ming and others looked at the skeletons of creatures in the port that were as big as large cruise ships from afar, their eyes filled with surprise.

"That should be a sea mammoth. Its head and upper body are like those of an ancient elephant, and its lower body is that of a whale. It usually lives in the open sea and deep sea..." Jiang Yu observed it carefully for a while and explained to everyone.

"But this mammoth's corpse is too strange. There's not a trace of flesh on it, but its bones are very complete. What on earth happened to this thing to become like this?"

Nanjue's eyes were filled with confusion. Even though such a giant sea beast was killed instantly, its skeleton was completely undamaged. This was extremely strange.

Chu Ming narrowed his eyes and said, "It must be some kind of sea monster we have never seen before. It devoured its flesh and internal organs."

"There are all kinds of strange things in the deep sea. I think so too." Jiang Yu nodded.

"Jiang Yu, since you can tell that this is a sea mammoth, do you know what level of strength it has?" Jiang Shaoxu always liked to explore strange and exciting things, so he couldn't help but ask.

"The weakest one is still a commander-in-chief. Judging from its ivory, it may be close to being a monarch." Jiang Yu said.

"Approach the monarch?"

Zhao Manyan shuddered.

Creatures of this level can all die miserably.

This means that there is a high possibility that there are more powerful demons and monarch-level beings in the nearby waters.

"Let's go quickly," Zhao Manyan urged.

Guan Yu also nodded: "We are here to challenge the National Pavilion. Let's quickly finish it and prepare to go to the next location."

……

Due to the appearance of mammoth skeletons.

Jiang Shaoxu's attention was completely drawn away.

He had no interest in Portugal's national pavilion competition and called Chu Ming with curiosity, wanting to explore the secret behind it together.

"You guys go ahead, we have enough to handle the competition."

Ai Jiangtu said to Chu Ming.

Last time at the New York Pavilion.

Chu Ming defeated the opposing team alone.

Although it is very impressive and satisfying.

But the embarrassing thing is.

The other team members all became cheerleaders.

The Portuguese national pavilion is not a strong opponent, and there is no need for Chu Ming to play.

It’s a good opportunity for other team members to have more trials.

"Okay, come on."

Chu Ming nodded and prepared to go to the dock with Jiang Shaoxu to take a look.

Mo Fan is also unable to sit still.

He immediately offered to join the exploration.

But this time.

What surprised Ai Jiangtu was...

Mu Ningxue, who was always silent and quiet, actually asked to leave the team temporarily?

Nan Rongni was also surprised by this and asked Ai Jiangtu for leave.

So everyone split into two teams.

Ai Jiangtu led a team to the National Pavilion to challenge.

Chu Ming, Jiang Shaoxu, Mo Fan, Mu Ningxue, and Nan Rongni left the team one after another to explore the mystery of the mammoth skeleton.

As Mo Fan walked, he was also very surprised.

Why is she also interested in that demon skeleton?
Changed personality?
He was just about to get close to Mu Ningxue.

When he turned around, he found that Mu Ningxue, who was at the back of the team, had disappeared, and Nan Rongni had disappeared with her.

……

In an alley.

Mu Ningxue and Nan Rongni walked side by side.

"Ning Xue, why did you suddenly come this way? Did you discover something?"

Nan Rongni's eyes were full of curiosity.

As far as she knows.

Mu Ningxue was extremely introverted. Apart from her interest in cultivation, she was almost indifferent to everything else.

This time, for the first time ever, let her come out to explore the secret?

This is really curious.

"There's a drowning curse here too!"

"It's almost identical to the drowning curse we saw in Neon Country's East Sea City."

Mu Ningxue didn't hide anything and told them about what she overheard when she was passing by the beach and they were chatting.

"Are you sure?" Nan Rongni asked in surprise.

"Yes, I'm sure." Mu Ningxue nodded.

Nan Rongni's expression was solemn.

As a mage from the Sea Academy, she certainly knew what the Drowning Curse was. It was a global mystery.

If she remembers correctly.

In the International Hunter Alliance, the number of bounties offered for drowning curse incidents has exceeded one thousand.

Thousands of victims' families, organizations, and associations around the world have offered rewards for information related to the drowning curse, and the reward pool should be worth hundreds of millions.

……

Soon, the two women arrived at a beach.

An old man who was being cremated on the beach attracted their attention.

"Oh, what a curse, the third one this month..." The old man was looking at the sea and murmured.

"Old man, what do you mean by the curse you just mentioned?" Mu Ningxue walked up and asked.

"It's better for you not to know. You will have nightmares after hearing it." The old man shook his head.

"Please tell us." Mu Ningxue insisted.

The old man watched the flames, and after the bodies were completely burned, he slowly said, "Everyone says it was suicide, but in fact, they were all cursed. They rushed to the beach like crazy, immersed themselves in the sea water, and suffocated to death..."

"Did you see it all with your own eyes?" Mu Ningxue asked seriously.

"Yes, there are already eight of them in this brief discussion alone." The old man sighed.

Mu Ningxue's heart suddenly sank.

She suddenly recalled that in Donghai City, not far from her, a female mage on the low embankment suddenly rushed into the ocean like crazy.

Then in just a few minutes.

The body turned white and died of drowning!

And now, in a Portuguese seaside city almost half a world away, this curse has appeared again?
"What the hell is that..."

Mu Ningxue fell into deep thought.

do not know why.

Her intuition told her.

This drowning curse is just the beginning.

In the future, it will definitely develop into a disaster even more horrific than what we are seeing now.

She didn't want to see a corpse like this appear on the beach again...

"I want to investigate the drowning curse, Ani, can you help me?"

Mu Ningxue looked at Nan Rongni and asked seriously.

Nan Rongni was stunned.

This is something that so many top hunters and professional mage organizations around the world have not been able to investigate clearly.

Mu Ningxue is just a high-level mage.

Moreover, they are still undergoing training in the government.

There is simply no time to investigate further.

However, Nan Rongni still told the information he knew, including the international bounty.

"A bounty has already been put on my head. Is there still a bounty of hundreds of millions..."

Mu Ningxue's eyes became more determined.

If what I said just now was out of kindness.

Now, she wants to investigate the drowning curse for herself, to become stronger, and to prove herself through this international incident!

……

West city residential area.

After learning the information of eight victims from the old man.

Nan Rongni and Mu Ningxue came to the third victim's family.

Walk into a small courtyard covered with purple ivy.

Suddenly, Nan Rongni, who had a keen sense of perception, smelled a foul odor coming from the house.

"Is anyone there? Your house stinks!" Nan Rongni covered his nose and shouted.

There was no response from the house.

Nan Rongni and Mu Ningxue looked at each other.

Pushed open the small wooden door.

Quickly enter the house.

Follow the smell.

The two women came to the door of a room.

The room was locked from the outside, and even all the gaps were nailed shut.

Unless they are imprisoned, most people would not do this.

The two women looked solemn, both having a bad feeling.

Bang!
Violent break.

The foul smell was so strong that the two women had to hold their breath.

Take a look inside.

The two women's pupils suddenly shrank as they saw an extremely horrific scene.
