Full-Time Magister: I can control you to death

"Attack together! I refuse to believe he can't run out of magic power!" Dongfang Ming roared.

The companions needed to be a little more rational and realize that their group was no match for Xu Fang, so they immediately reported to their superiors.

Xu Fang noticed his behavior but did not stop him. He even thoughtfully reduced the density of the punches in that direction so that he wouldn't have to sway around and affect the signal.

······

Hangcheng.

Zhu Mengzheng pointed at Tang Zhong's nose and angrily shouted, "Even at this point, you still want to protect that so-called god?"

“But you have no evidence to prove that this plague was indeed caused by the Black Serpent…” Tang Zhong was clearly somewhat unsure of himself.

The plague was more troublesome than he had imagined. In fact, even he had some doubts about whether the totem snake was unable to control its ferocity during its molting period!

Chapter 193 Detective Xu Fang

"Judge Tang Zhong, are you going to stand against the people?" Zhu Meng cursed, "This damned plague is completely out of control. People are already dying, and the number of infections is still rising. Are you going to just watch them follow in the footsteps of those who died?"

Tang Zhong insisted, "I will have Tang Yue bring back some of the Xuan Snake's bodily fluids, but you must not kill it."

"You scoundrel! As the presiding judge, you cling to ridiculous ancestral precepts and let such a dangerous and harmful snake escape?"

Zhu Meng said decisively, "My men have already found Tang Yue's whereabouts in Bai Town, and the palace guards have already gone there!"

Tang Zhong frowned, but before he could speak, a monk rushed in, his face beaming with joy:

"Report! Your Excellency, news has come from White Town that a pharmacist named Xu Fang possesses a method to cure the plague!"

"Really?" Zhu Menghu's eyes lit up with joy. "Quickly, bring Xu Fang to the city. He's a great hero to us, immediately..."

"Report! Our men who were trying to intercept Tang Yue have been stopped!" Another person burst in.

Zhu Meng roared, "Who is it?!"

"His name is Xu Fang!"

Zhu Meng: "???"

······

Bai Town.

Xu Fang was still fighting, but his opponent had become a level above him. He had gone from someone like Dongfang Ming, who was at a mid-level, to Wu Pingjing, the head of the palace guards.

Wu Pingjing is a high-level level three mage, and he has also absorbed a soul seed. In terms of raw strength, Xu Fang is naturally no match for him.

Of course, if it's a matter of risking one's life, that's another story. The long-neglected purple demon cloud is already itching to create a human bomb for fun.

"You are no match for me, get out of my way." Wu Pingjing stared intently at Xu Fang: "For maliciously delaying the court mage's mission, I have the right to kill you on the spot!"

"Really?" Xu Fang didn't move. "You can try."

Wu Pingjing possessed magic, but he was never able to unleash it.

Immediately after receiving the distress message from his subordinate, he urgently reviewed Xu Fang's information and discovered that this kid was actually the chief of Mingzhu Academy, a high-level mage, who had assisted the military and the Inquisition in completing missions on multiple occasions.

What shocked him even more was that he couldn't view much of the information even with his access privileges!

He's not some clueless newbie; killing someone like that would cause a massive uproar that could potentially drown him!

Clearly, the guy on the other side was well aware of this, and his nonchalant attitude was infuriating.

Just then, he received a message from Zhu Meng: "Bring Xu Fang back, and continue the search for Tang Yue!"

"Xu Fang, come back with us to see Councilor Zhu Meng. Don't make things too ugly," Wu Pingjing warned, while simultaneously preparing his magic.

To his surprise, Xu Fang readily agreed this time: "Okay."

Judging by the time, Mo Fan and Tang Yue had already arrived inside the Thousand Caves of Baishan. Inside, caves were connected to caves and mountains were connected to mountains, and the maze-like caves were enough to make these people question their existence.

Just in case, Xu Fang added, "I need you to escort me... Don't give me that sour look. If you don't escort me, I'll run away. Anyway, no one else can stop me."

Wu Pingjing's temples bulged with veins as he barely suppressed his anger: "Fine!"

I've never seen such an arrogant person in my entire life!

Xu Fang took out his phone to let Bai Tingting know he was safe, but Wu Pingjing stopped him: "Your companion will be taken to the city center as well. You are not allowed to send any information to the outside world now."

"I understand, I'll cooperate."

Xu Fang's sincerity made Wu Pingjing want to punch him. You weren't like this just now!

······

Upon returning to Hangzhou aboard the Sky Eagle, Xu Fang was brought before Zhu Meng.

Zhu Meng was a middle-aged man with a thick beard and sharp, eagle-like eyes. As soon as Xu Fang entered the room, his eyes locked onto him.

To his surprise, Xu Fang was not intimidated by his imposing manner.

“General Jiang used to glare at me like that every day, I’m used to it. Your eyesight is even worse than his,” Xu Fang laughed.

Zhu Meng showed no surprise: "It really is you."

When he first heard the name Xu Fang, he thought it was just a coincidence, because there was no reason for that bright young man to appear in Bai Town.

But when he saw Xu Fang, he knew he was wrong; Xu Fang was the same Xu Fang.

"Leaving aside why you got involved, I'm asking you, do you actually have any way to solve the plague?" Zhu Meng asked.

Xu Fang took out a bottle of medicine from the Hidden Star and pushed it in front of Zhu Meng: "This is the antidote. The ingredient is Eagle Red Grass, a kind of herb that can be found everywhere in Xiling."

"Mr. Lu!" Zhu Meng didn't waste any words: "Send it to try. If it works, immediately organize people to harvest the Eagle Red Grass!"

At this point, forget about medical principles. The person is about to die; taking a gamble is better than waiting to die!

"Ridiculous! I've heard of Eagle Red Grass, but it's just a lowly weed. How could it possibly cure such a terrible plague?"

Behind Zhu Meng, a middle-aged man with a goatee said with a forced smile.

"Are you Luo Mian?" Xu Fang asked.

"So what if you know me?" Luo Mian asked, somewhat surprised.

"It really was you. Then it's alright." Xu Fang shook his head with a smile: "No one else but you would jump up and down at a time like this."

"What do you mean?" Luo Mian was inexplicably panicked, but what alarmed him even more was yet to come.

"This plague was never a natural disaster, but a man-made one!"

His words startled everyone present. Zhu Meng abruptly stood up, his breathing becoming heavy: "What did you say?"

"The giant serpent is just a scapegoat, a carefully chosen victim to cover up the greed of certain people!"

Xu Fang's smile vanished at some point, and his voice turned icy: "A month ago, my senior sister Leng Qing discovered a batch of blood serum of unknown origin, but due to the other party's excessive vigilance, the investigation has been slow to make progress."

"According to the investigation by my Qingtian Hunting Lodge, the first two hunters to die from the plague purchased the same batch of blood serum from the same place before their deaths."

"Their deaths occurred a full week after the giant serpent appeared. Isn't it more suspicious to attribute their deaths to the giant serpent than to simply attribute them to it?"

"When I attended a pharmacist exchange conference, a senior colleague told me that blood products undergo strict official review before being put into use, and only people at the level of members of parliament have the opportunity to tamper with them!"

Xu Fang didn't say who it was, but everyone in the room understood and subconsciously looked in the same direction.

There was only one person present who was in charge of the blood supply in Hangzhou.

Councilor Luo Mian's expression remained unchanged: "You doubt me? Ridiculous! How could I, a councilor from Hangzhou, do such a despicable thing? Besides, what evidence do you have to prove that the problem lies with the blood serum?"

"Evidence, of course there is."

Xu Fang took out two glass tubes from the Hidden Star, both containing a red solution.

"Both of these test tubes contain blood serum. One of them is made from alien blood, while the other is made from..." Xu Fang slowly uttered four words: "Lingzhao Plague Rat".

Representative Luo Mian's expression finally changed, and cold sweat seeped out from his back.

"The blood of the Lingzhao Plague Rat is extremely similar to that of the alien blood, and can even be mistaken for the real thing. However, the virus it carries can cause serious damage to the human body. I don't think Councilor Luo Mian would be so heartless as to use something like this to pass off as real blood, would he?"

Luo Mian remained silent.

Xu Fang stared at him and delivered the final blow: "I have already notified Senior Sister Leng Qing. If nothing unexpected happens, she has already seized that batch of blood serum."

"Just by checking the ingredients, it will be clear which is right and which is wrong!"

Chapter 194 Stupidity is the Original Sin

Faced with the evidence presented one by one, any denial seems so pale and powerless.

Luo Mian no longer had the same smirking, unyielding demeanor he had shown at the beginning; his eyes now held a hint of ruthlessness and fear.

Military Commander Yunfeng stepped forward and shielded Xu Fang behind him.

"If you want to touch him, ask our military headquarters if they agree?" His gaze was also fixed on Luo Mian; this tragedy was caused from the very beginning by this bastard's greed.

Such a beast in human form made him want to kill him on the spot!

"Commander Yun, you flatter me... I, Luo, am upright and have nothing to fear. We've worked together, why make things so ugly?"

Luo Mian managed to maintain his composure.

However, this composure vanished the next moment when Leng Qing entered the room, along with the deputy judge who looked like a dead dog in Leng Qing's hand.

"I have seized all the infected blood serum. After testing, just as my junior brother Xu Fang said, the ingredients are not demon blood, but infected blood from the Lingzhao Plague Rat!"

Leng Qing said, "This Vice Judge Wang is the mastermind on the surface. As for the mastermind behind all this, it is none other than Luo Mian, this sanctimonious villain!"

Leng Qing was truly enraged.

She had noticed the problem with the blood serum as early as two months ago.

But she only thought it was selling fake medicine for profit, and since the mastermind was well hidden, she decided to play the long game and catch a big fish. Little did she expect that Luo Mian would be so ruthless as to use diseased blood to make money!

"Luo Mian! What else do you have to say?" Zhu Meng roared.

"me···"

From the moment Vice Judge Wang was thrown in, Luo Mian seemed to lose his ability to speak.

It’s over.

It's all over.
