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

Chapter 177: Dragon Hunting? Crazy!

Lingling stirred the blood.

Seems to be looking for something.

He immediately took out a filter and told Mu Ningxue to pick up the basin of blood and pour it into the filter.

Bobby and Nan Rongni were stunned.

Such a brave little girl.

Faced with such disgusting, smelly blood, he didn't take it seriously at all.

The blood dumping is complete.

Eventually, a wriggling clot the size of a fist appeared on the filter.

"What...what is this?" Bobby was stunned.

Lingling didn't answer, but just called out, "Go get some water!"

"okay."

Bobby nodded, walked quickly to the yard, picked up a ladle and scooped half a ladle of water from the water tank.

"Pour it over here, slowly."

Lingling commanded.

When clean water was poured over the blood clots, the wriggling blood clots dissolved directly and disappeared completely.

"Disappeared?" Bobby asked in surprise.

"No, it's still there. Look carefully."

Mu Ningxue and Nan Rongni carefully examined the filter.

Soon, a strange sea worm was seen above. It was translucent like a jellyfish, as thick as an index finger, and shaped like a maggot.

"I knew it was this thing!"

Lingling's tone was a little excited.

When she was on the plane.

I investigated a lot of information about the drowning curse.

Finally, it was roughly speculated that the culprit should be this thing.

But it's just speculation.

Only now, after seeing the evidence, did she dare to make a conclusion.

"What is this?" Nan Rongni asked curiously. She was also a well-read mage, but this kind of parasitic creature was the first time she had seen it.

"Jellyfish maggots!"

"This is an extremely strange ocean parasitic monster!"

"What you see now is their egg-worm form. It's normal that you haven't seen it before. Once they reach the ocean, where there's enough water and living things to serve as nutrients, they'll quickly grow into their true form!"

"What form?" Mu Ningxue asked.

"It's hard to say. The peculiar thing about jellyfish maggots is that they will slowly transform into whatever organism they parasitize during the egg and larval stage."

"You mean, if it parasitizes a dog, it will become a dog?" Nan Rongni asked.

"Well, but since it's a sea worm after all, even if it parasitizes a dog, it won't stay there for long. After draining the dog's flesh and blood, it will control the dog's body and rush towards the sea. There, it will merge into the sea and transform into a transparent sea lion, lurking silently until it encounters a more powerful marine creature to parasitize!"

I heard Lingling's description.

Mu Ningxue immediately thought of the person who was cursed with drowning and his state before death, and asked hurriedly.

"So, those who were cursed with drowning were also parasitized by this sea worm?"

Lingling nodded. "That's right. Those who drowned in the sea showed no signs of poisoning or curse. That's because once these jellyfish maggots enter the water, they blend in with the seawater and disappear without a trace!"

"This thing is incredibly strange. Even if we knew the truth about the Drowning Curse, how could we solve it?" Nan Rongni asked, frowning. "A parasite that can blend into the water and hide itself, a normal mage would be completely defenseless if they accidentally encountered one."

"I have a guess, but I can't be sure until I do some research."

As she said that, Lingling placed the jellyfish maggots into a petri dish and turned away.

After half an hour.

Lingling, who completed the experiment, brought back good news.

"According to my research, once the jellyfish maggot completes its second form and becomes a complete form, a vaccine tissue should grow on its body."

Mu Ningxue's eyes lit up as she said, "You're saying that if we kill the fully formed jellyfish maggots, obtain the vaccine, and inject it, we can resolve the Drowning Curse?"

"Yes, I have already marked that little creature and released it into the sea."

"We have to get going now."

"Once this evil maggot leaves its host, its mortality rate in the ocean is extremely high, and only a few can evolve to their full form... Next, we must not only track it, but also protect it and ensure its smooth advancement!" Lingling said seriously.

Nan Rongni and Mu Ningxue were stunned when they heard this.

"Let's get going!"

Lingling urged, walking out with the mini computer on her back.

Nan Rongni and Mu Ningxue followed closely behind.

"Wait, count me in. I'm familiar with the ocean. This devilish bug killed two of my brothers. I can't let it continue to spread and wreak havoc!"

Bobby followed.

Seeing his brother's miserable state, he wanted to crush the evil maggot to death to vent his hatred.

But I finally found a way to solve the drowning curse... If I can eliminate the drowning curse, my brother in heaven will be comforted.

……

Soon.

The four of them boarded a speedboat and followed the red dot on Lingling's computer, tracking the evil maggots.

But after all, we are heading to the deep ocean.

Nan Rongni was still a little worried.

Before departure.

I turned on the location and sent a message to Chu Ming.

after an hour.

As they went deeper and deeper, the color of the sea water gradually became darker.

Bobby drove the speedboat into a new sea area.

"We should have entered the territory of another species of sea monster. The good news is that the evil maggot has already metamorphosed once. As long as it parasitizes a more powerful sea monster, it will almost reach its full form."

Lingling glanced at the signal response on the computer.

"Bobby, do you remember which high-level sirens live in this area?"

"We must analyze the evil maggot's target so we can prepare early."

Lingling asked again.

According to her speculation, based on the parasitic desire of the evil maggots, the highest priority should be the creature with the strongest aura.

Otherwise pick a regular Siren Parasite.

Even if it evolves, it will only become food for higher-level sirens.

"Let me think... This sea area is the habitat of the Thunderstorm Squid. Speaking of high-level sea monsters, it seems that a Black Sea Pseudodragon appeared here before."

"That Wuhai Pseudo-Dragon is a hybrid demon born from a sea dragon and a thunder squid."

"There's a sea dragon?!"

Lingling was surprised.

"Yes." Bobby nodded.

"There's no mistake. That evil maggot's target must be that Wu Hai pseudo-dragon!"

Lingling said with certainty.

Although the pseudo-dragon is only a demon that is slightly related to the dragon clan.

But they are dragons after all. Even the thinnest bloodline can bring a qualitative improvement to the original ordinary mermaid bloodline!

soon.

Everyone came to the territory of the Wu Hai pseudo-dragon.

Lingling also happened to see the red signal on the computer and lurked motionless in the deep sea below, as if waiting for an opportunity.

"This evil maggot seems to have set its sights on this pseudo-dragon. It can lurk in the ocean and wait forever, but we still have to participate in the national government's training, and we don't have so much time to wait for it to advance." Nan Rongni frowned.

Mu Ningxue stared at the dark sea, pondered for a moment, and suddenly said, "Since it wants to parasitize the Wuhai pseudo-dragon, then we should help it and hunt it down!"

"what?"

Bobby was stunned.

Bringing these people to the territory of the Wuhai Pseudo-Dragon was already a huge risk.

You actually still want to hunt that Wuhai Pseudo-Dragon?
What a joke.

That’s a commander-level sea dragon!

Are you crazy!? ?
