Full-Time Magister: What kind of demonic tree is this? It's clearly a sacred tree!

Chapter 65 Veiled Woman

Mo Fan had already called out, "He Yu!"

Zhang Chen suddenly realized that she had changed so much. In his memory, she was still a very weak little girl. Now, apart from the deep worry in her expression, she looked like a battle-hardened female guard.

"Mo Fan? Zhang Chen? Are you here to find Little Monkey too?" He Yu jogged over and said, "Yes! We don't know anyone here, so we were thinking of finding a tour group to take us to Dangerous Village." Mo Fan said, and He Yu shook her head somewhat disappointedly: "I've been at the Hunter's Hall for half a day, and as soon as they heard we were going to Dangerous Village, not a single one of them would take us."

"If no one answers, we'll answer!" A hoarse voice barked in. Zhang Chen turned around and saw a short hunter mage dressed in an "adventure" style standing next to him. Even at his height, he had to bend down to see the guy's face.

He Yu exclaimed excitedly, "Really?!"

"That's right, right now we're the only ones in the entire Hunter's Hall who still take on jobs in Dangerous Village!" the dwarf said confidently. "Then stop talking nonsense! How much!" Zhang Chen asked eagerly. "One price! 1000 million!" the dwarf held up one finger and said, "Here you go!" Zhang Chen and his group weren't short of money at all, so they just threw him a bank card.

"Okay! Great! Add me on roster. Wait for me at the South Gate tomorrow and I'll let you know. Just so you know, we're not just taking your order; there are other people in the queue."

The short man said something, and Zhang Chen nodded. Then the three of them found a hotel to stay in. Zhang Chen and Mo Fan had not seen the undead yet, so after nightfall they did not rush to sleep, but went to the outer city wall.

The outer city wall was extremely high, enclosing the city like an iron barrel. They went up to the city wall as students. Walking on the endless wall road, Zhang Chen was surprised to find that there were more than ten times more guards here than during the day.

A cold wind blew from afar, carrying the smell of rotting earth, which the guards called the smell of death.

The towering city walls stretch across this land, as if cutting the black earth in half. But if you look down from the sky, you will see many people walking back and forth inside the city walls, and outside the city walls, there are also many figures wandering aimlessly.

Black, velvety clouds rolled in, low and heavy, pressing down on a flat, gloomy land. Nourished by the rain of death, all life flourished. One after another, unknown creatures crawled out of their deep-buried graves, scanning the world with their green eyes.

I sniffed around and smelled the scent of living creatures coming from the direction of the upwind side—a large flock of them!

Suddenly, the wandering undead, as if possessed by evil spirits, sped towards the ancient city at an incredible speed!

Their black bodies, from a distance, looked like a group of refugees rushing towards food. But when they gathered together in dense numbers and turned into a rotting flood that crashed into the city walls, their ferocious faces and hungry eyes made countless mages feel their scalps tingle!

The cries rose and fell, and even those living in the city center could hear these peculiar death wails from just a wall away.

They gathered at the foot of the towering outer city wall, trying to destroy the defense that blocked their hunting with their sharp claws and teeth. Some even rammed into it with brute force, smashing themselves to pieces!

"Holy crap! Do you want to give them a Heavenly Flame Funeral? A whole bunch of them will die down there!" Zhang Chen looked down at the undead below, which looked like zombies from a zombie movie in his previous life, and got goosebumps all over his body.

Mo Fan shook his head and pointed to the guards on the other side. Various magical lights were already brewing in their hands, flames,

Frost, lightning, and storms—magics of different colors—bombarded them relentlessly, splattering large chunks of flesh and blood in a spectacular yet chilling display!

"Unauthorized personnel, please leave!"

The sound, though its origin was unknown, was powerful and resonant, capable of permeating the entire city wall.

Zhang Chen and Mo Fan had no chance to witness this war-torn night any longer. They were quickly driven away from the city walls, but the moment they left, Mo Fan and Zhang Chen pierced through the darkness and saw a gigantic shadow appear on the horizon beneath the thick, black velvet clouds!

The shadowy figure was surrounded by a vast, dark mass, spreading out like the rising tide. Even though it was completely invisible, one could imagine how dense the earth spirits were there.

Ying roared arrogantly, his roar transforming into rolling thunder that pierced through the heavens and earth, causing the city walls to tremble.

"It's the monarch again! I should have brought the Black Serpent!" Zhang Chen said, looking at the shadowy figure. Then the two of them obediently went back to sleep. The next day, they arrived at the outer south gate. Zhang Chen searched for a long time in the crowd but couldn't find the short man. It wasn't until the guy was jumping around while talking to Zhang Chen on the communicator that Zhang Chen finally managed to catch a glimpse of his scalp.

He glanced around at the short man and noticed that several people had gathered around him.

The others looked ordinary, but one woman in the group wearing a black silk veil drew attention.

The woman wasn't particularly strange; in fact, her attire was quite stunning. Despite the freezing weather, she was still wearing a silk robe embroidered with colorful birds, and a soft, bright red shawl hung down elegantly, swaying as she walked.

Not to mention, the dark aura emanating from her made Zhang Chen very uncomfortable. This person must have spent a long time in that dark gathering place, and Zhang Chen secretly became wary of her.

Besides the graceful woman wearing black silk veils, there was a pair of brothers who always followed beside her. They looked more like attendants than companions.

Just then, the veiled woman suddenly turned to look at Zhang Chen. Their eyes met for a moment, and she quickly turned away, which made Zhang Chen even more wary.

Such a holy aura, even purer than the aura of those from the Holy Judgment Court! China truly is a place where hidden talents abound!

Zhang Chen telepathically communicated with Mo Fan, saying, "Hey, hey, hey, you're practically glued to her! Be careful, she's suspicious!"

This startled Mo Fan, who thought to himself, "She's from the Black Vatican?"

"I don't know! But there's a very strong dark aura. She seems to have sensed my difference as well, and she should have some kind of magical artifact to protect her mind. I can't detect her emotions. Be careful!" Zhang Chen's voice echoed in his mind. "This is the first time someone has discovered you! Is this woman that powerful?" Mo Fan also became serious. Including the short man and his companion, the big man, there were eight people in total, six men and two women.

The wind blew in early morning, carrying a strange smell, but for some reason, once the sun shone on the earth, the smell disappeared, as if the tumultuous events of last night had never happened.

The south gate is open during the day; people can simply register before going out.

After leaving the outer city wall, the eight people, following the dwarf man's directions, began their journey towards Yangyang Village.

The south side faces Bailing. Whether flying or driving a small vehicle, it shows no respect to the Qinling demons. So, if you go south, there are basically no small vehicles available; you have to walk the whole way.
