Versatile Mage: My Elements Evolve Infinitely

Chapter 58: The Scale-skinned Demon Mother's Unusual Movements
"Brother Lin Yu?"

When I opened my eyes again, it was already light outside.

Lin Yu discovered that Xiao Lingling had appeared here at some point.

"Are you awake? Are you hungry?"

As she spoke, Lingling chuckled and pulled her hand out from behind her back, holding a breakfast in her hand.

Two soup dumplings and a cup of porridge.

"What a sweet little cotton-padded jacket."

Lin Yu smiled slightly, took the breakfast from her hand and started eating.

"By the way, Brother Lin Yu, guess who went to the office this morning?"

Lingling sat next to Lin Yu, with a cunning look on her face, and asked.

"Could it be that the hostess of this house is gone?"

Lin Yu hadn't swallowed the bun in his mouth yet, and he raised his hand and pointed downwards with a somewhat unclear voice.

"how do you know?"

Lingling widened her eyes with a look of surprise.

"Guess!"

Lingling glanced at Lin Yu and spoke again, "She came to our hunter and said that her husband might have killed someone. There was a half-burned shirt with blood stains in the trash can."

"Her request was surprisingly the same as that man's: to protect her and her four-year-old child."

Lin Yu took a sip of porridge and suppressed the bun in his mouth. "I cooked his husband. Yesterday, he shed his skin and turned into a monster covered with green scales. When he was about to hurt someone, I burned him with fire."

"A demon covered in green scales?"

"molt?"

"Could it be that kind of thing?"

Lingling frowned and pondered.

Lin Yu knew that Lingling knew about the scaly-skinned monster, so he didn't say anything more.

Instead, he started to worry about Xiao Lan.

Just now while eating, he tried to communicate with Xiaolan through the contract, but received no response.

"Brother Lin Yu, what are you thinking about?"

Seeing that Lin Yu was a little absent-minded, Lingling asked curiously.

"Xiao Lan, Xiao Lan last night."

Lin Yu roughly told Lingling what happened last night.

Although Lingling is young, Lin Yu knows that she has a lot of knowledge and experience.

After listening to Lin Yu's story.

Lingling's big eyes were filled with shock.

After a moment, the shock on her face faded. "Brother Lin Yu, don't you think that a creature that can wrap the teeth of such a powerful creature without being scratched by it, its body may not be weaker than the creature with the teeth."

"Maybe even better than that."

Lin Yu nodded. "That's what I guessed too. But even if it was just a piece of skin, how could Xiao Lan, who was already at the 'Commander Level', fall into that state?"

"Don't worry, Brother Lin Yu, your contracted beast is very intelligent. Although I have only had a short time with her, I can feel that she is quite intelligent. She will definitely not try to devour someone knowing there is danger."

"Furthermore, there are definitely powerful creatures like the ones you mentioned in this world. They might even be more powerful than our Forbidden Spell Masters. The things they left behind might actually have some incredible, yet real, abilities."

Lingling looked at Lin Yu and comforted him patiently.

Lin Yu nodded. He had thought about these things, but when encountering problems, it was much better to have someone to guide you than to worry about it alone.

He was certain that Xiao Lan would undergo some remarkable changes this time.

The sky darkened again.

During the day, the two of them left the rooftop to eat two meals, except at noon and in the afternoon.

Lin Yu and Lingling stayed on the rooftop.

Lingling had already told Old Man Bao about the commission, so she didn't have to stay away from going back.

"Brother Lin Yu, are we just going to stay here like this?

In fact, I think we can just go back to the hunting lodge and guard it.

Anyway, there are surveillance cameras here, so I can find out anything immediately." Lingling suggested, looking at the surveillance camera on the tablet in her hand.

Lin Yu nodded, "After tonight."

He remembered that the woman shed her skin on the day she issued the commission. If he could confirm that she was the demon mother as soon as possible, he could solve the problem earlier.

As for giving Zhao Manyan a good reputation, that was also easy to do.

Give him the corpse and characteristics of this thing, and as long as he does some work to make people aware of the dangers of the "Scale-skinned Monster", the effect will be achieved.

Although the effect will be worse than in school where so many people are infected, fortunately there will be no casualties.

time flies.

It's already eight or nine o'clock.

"Lingling, what is the woman doing now?"

Lin Yu woke up from his meditation and looked at Lingling and asked.

"You can't watch a woman bathing!"

Lingling finished speaking and stuffed the tablet into her arms.

Hearing this, Lin Yu frowned slightly. The development of the situation was almost the same as in the original book. "How long has she been taking a shower? Is there a surveillance camera in your bathroom?"

"It's not nice to spy on others. She was only in the bathroom for 20 minutes."

Lingling still has a strong professional ethics, she answered.

"Look at what's happening to the woman in the bathroom now."

"I feel like something's wrong."

Lin Yu slowly stood up and spoke again.

"What's wrong with that? Isn't it normal for a woman to take a shower for 20 to 30 minutes or even an hour?"

As she spoke, she switched the screen on her tablet to the bathroom, but after seeing the surveillance footage, her eyes widened.

Lin Yu also came over curiously.

Of course, he just wanted to see why Lingling was so curious, and he had no other intentions.

This is the monitoring screen on the tablet computer.

The bathroom was filled with white steam. One could vaguely see a woman kneeling on the ground under the shower head, her body twisting in an extremely strange posture.

What was even more terrifying was that the woman was shedding her skin, and the skin of her upper body with long hair had already fallen to her chest.

She is now trying hard to pull her hand out of the human skin.

Lin Yu could vaguely see the green figure behind the thick water vapor.

"Brother Lin Yu! It really is that kind of thing! Thanks to you for reminding me, otherwise the man and the child would be in danger."

"What do we do now?"

Lingling looked solemn, with a hint of annoyance between her brows.

"It's okay. I don't think she'll shed her skin very quickly."

"We'll go down now. You find a way to get the door open. I'll just kill her and the mission will be complete."

Hearing Lin Yu's words, Lingling nodded.

Soon the two of them walked down the stairs towards the room where the woman was.

"Hurry up, Brother Lin Yu, the woman has shed her skin to her waist, and her hands have been pulled out."

“It will only get faster and faster.”

Behind Lin Yu, Lingling looked at the screen on the tablet and urged him to speak.

Lin Yu frowned and quickened his pace again.

I sighed in my heart, if Xiaolan was here, we would probably have arrived now.

One minute later.

Outside the apartment door.

Lingling raised her hand and pressed the doorbell of this house.

"Hello. Could you open the door?"
