Full-Time Magister: Reincarnated as the Strongest in the Modern Era, Gojo Satoru

Chapter 111 Disgusting Maggots

Wu Tiao Wu was responsible for helping Lingling, while Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue went to visit the people in the vicinity.

Because their expedition team had disbanded, and Zhao Manyan and Jiang Shaoxu had rejoined the team, only the three of them remained.

Not long after, Mo Fan sent word that Gojo Satoru and Lingling had quickly rushed over.

As soon as the two arrived at their destination, a man whom Mo Fan called Bobby saw a little girl walking in and hurriedly stood up to dissuade her, saying, "Little girl, don't come in, you'll be frightened!"

Gojo Satoru simply smiled and said nothing more.

Lingling ignored the man's advice and went straight in, her eyes, which shone with a wisdom beyond her years, staring directly at the bloody scene.

Before Bobby could say anything more, Mo Fan spoke up, "This is my partner. Don't worry about her, leave the rest to her. I'm sure we'll have a result soon."

"Are you kidding me?" Bobby was furious!

He didn't even really trust Mo Fan, that young upstart, let alone Lingling, that little girl.

But as Lingling began the autopsy, he began to believe it again; perhaps the girl was just petite in appearance.

After examining the body, Lingling requested an autopsy.

Upon hearing that an autopsy was to be performed, Bobby naturally wanted to refuse.

After all, these were his family members. How could he allow them to suffer such torture even after death?

However, Lingling insisted that this was the only way to find the answer.

Bobby eventually agreed.

After all, he wanted to find the answer himself. It concerned the lives of his two brothers!

With the help of Lingling and a anatomist, Lingling quickly obtained a new clue: an extremely tiny, transparent maggot, as soft as a jellyfish.

But it's more transparent than a jellyfish, almost invisible to the naked eye, and its shape resembles a maggot. It's roughly the size of a thumb.

After studying it all night, Lingling also found some things.

But knowing this is one thing, but to find a way to break the drowning curse, one has no choice but to go into the sea and witness the growth of the evil maggots firsthand!

Upon learning of this experiment, Mo Fan and Bobby both thought Lingling was a bit crazy.

Gojo Satoru seemed unconcerned, stating that he could guarantee everyone's safety.

He's not very good at investigating clues, but when it comes to fighting, he's better than an entire high-level mage squad!

At this point, the group had no more burdens.

…………

Before long, the four of them boarded a speedboat and quickly chased after the Drowned Curse Worm in the direction Lingling had pointed.

The Drowned Curse Worms weren't particularly fast, and their boats maintained a distance of less than 500 meters from the creature.

If it dives into the deep sea, the water mage Bobby will also dive down with it.

Bobby majored in water magic and was an ordinary mid-level water magic mage who didn't even have a spirit seed.

But he was clearly very familiar with the water, so it was best for him to stay close to the Drowning Curse Maggot.

Naturally, some troubles were encountered during this time, but Gojo Satoru was no pushover. He was able to completely annihilate the siren using both chaos and spatial magic.

The journey was thrilling yet safe. Before we knew it, the sky was a light blue, but the ocean had gradually deepened. Looking around, we could sense that this ocean was somewhat unusual.

"Why is the seawater getting darker and darker?" Mo Fan knew absolutely nothing about the ocean, so he turned to look at the sea.

"The maggot has already undergone a transformation. It must have gained a lot of benefits from the Sword Hedgehog Siren," Lingling said, keeping an eye on things.

Mo Fan's lips twitched slightly, but he didn't say anything.

"There seems to be a reef ahead," Bobby said.

People who frequently spend time at the beach can identify hidden reefs through experience.

"Perhaps the maggots have some ability to judge the sea monsters in the vicinity? If I'm not mistaken, there are probably quite a few sea monsters living here. Among them are quite a few powerful beings." Gojo Satoru pointed around casually.

"Indeed, this thing is very good at finding places to burrow, but this also increases our difficulty. Once we sneak around and are discovered by the sea monster, we have to rush down to help it get rid of the monster," Lingling said seriously.

"No way, is it possible that we could go down to a place like this?"

Down below lives a race of sea monsters, and their numbers are definitely not small.

Bobby, an ordinary mid-level mage, didn't even dare to have the slightest thought of going down.

Because this is no different from courting death!

"We have to go down, otherwise our trip will be in vain," Lingling insisted.

"Bobby, can you roughly figure out what kinds of sirens live in this reef?" Lingling asked again.

"Sure, those old hunter groups often drag me along on missions because my identification skills are better than many veteran sea hunters. Give me some time, and I can conduct a detailed census of this reef!" Bobby said confidently, not forgetting to boast about his special skill.

"Okay, then it's up to you. I need to know what that maggot's real target is," Lingling said.

This creature can become almost anything it parasitizes, so Lingling really wants to figure out what its target is!

A little while later...

"I've found out that the reef caves, starting from 500 meters to 1,000 meters below sea level, are inhabited by sea monkey monsters. There are quite a few of them, at least one clan, but there is no leader. They are just a disorganized bunch, basically a slum."

"And in the reef caves between one and two thousand meters deep, there are no fewer than a thousand thunderstorm squid, and there are probably even commanders among them." Bobby's expression turned somewhat grim when he mentioned the thunderstorm squid.

But that wasn't the end of it. He then looked at Mo Fan and said, "Weren't you just curious why the water here turned black?"

"Just tell me what it is. I'm not well-educated and don't know what it is," Mo Fan said frankly.

"That's a false dragon from the Black Sea, a hybrid demon of a sea dragon and a thunderstorm giant crow." Gojo Satoru's azure eyes gleamed with silver light, and a ripple appeared in his calm eyes.

He didn't recognize this demon, but Six Eyes had already read its information.

Upon hearing this, Mo Fan's mood soured.

Any demon that has even the slightest connection to a dragon is no ordinary being; such creatures of the same level possess power far exceeding that of normal demons.

False dragons are demons that carry some dragon blood. For example, the lizard-like false dragons in the Golden Forest Wasteland should be the product of an earth dragon and some kind of giant lizard. Their strength is quite good among the orthodox leaders.

"How about we kill the maggots?" Mo Fan asked, looking at Gojou and Lingling with a questioning expression.

Wu's injuries haven't healed yet, and it's unknown whether he can contend with the Wuhai Pseudo-Dragon in the deep sea.

"No need. It's just a pseudo-dragon at the commander level, nothing more than a larger ant," Gojo Satoru said disdainfully, while extending his palm and making a gesture.
