Full-Time Magister: The Ruler of Wind and Rain

Xiao Ding tried every possible method but couldn't find out what attacked them. Logically, the most reasonable thing to do at this moment was to retreat, but this was a busy urban area, on the banks of the Huangpu River. The sneak attack that just happened was most likely from some kind of demon. If they ignored it, it could very likely cause fatal disasters for tourists who came to see the Huangpu River in the future.

The three looked at each other's expressions, none of them wanting to back down. So let's continue! With such perfect magical defenses, they refused to believe that any demon could take their lives!

The team's strategist, Lingling, who is only ten years old, sat on the ground with a blank stare. At first glance, a normal person might think that the little girl had been frightened into a stupor, but even Wang Yu, who had only spent a few days with Lingling, knew that this was the state in which her brain was operating at full power.

"Invisibility! A siren! It's been spotted on the east coast! It's a silver-scaled sea shark!" Lingling shouted excitedly.

"Invisibility?" Upon hearing the keyword, Xiao Ding quickly released two more beams of Light Protection - Wall Painting, forming a triangle that surrounded the three people in the center.

"Silverscale Sharks are generally warrior-level sea monsters with high intelligence but relatively fragile bodies. They have mastered wind elemental attacks and the ability to become invisible, and their attack power is comparable to that of a great warrior. Silverscale Sharks often roam alone along the coast, not as social monsters, but it's estimated that about 10% of the mages who die on the coast are thanks to these creatures." Lingling seemed to have found the right search engine for her keywords, and a lot of information about monsters popped up all at once.

Xiao Ding frowned slightly: "But this sea shark isn't afraid of my light magic, so I can't expose it. Covering it with fire magic would consume too much magic energy. I'm afraid it will go far away first and then attack us after I run out of magic energy."

Wang Yu nodded. According to Lingling, this demon possessed intelligence, making it entirely possible for it to employ such a calculated scheme that drained the magic energy of mages. What other options were there? Calling for reinforcements now? That would only put the city's demon-hunting team, who might be the first to arrive at the scene, in danger.

"I have an idea." After quickly activating his clever (though perhaps not as clever as Lingling's) brain, Wang Yu found a possible solution: "Senior Brother Xiaoding, you continue to protect me. I'll extend my wind-elemental domain and see if I can use it to find it."

"Domain?" Before leaving, Xiao Ding and Wang Yu had exchanged information about their strengths to facilitate cooperation, so he knew that Wang Yu possessed the noble talent of naturally having a domain at the initial stage. However, he still couldn't help but question, "How large is the coverage area of ​​your domain? That Silverscale Shark might be waiting for us to run out of magic energy hundreds of meters away. Even a very powerful mid-level domain only covers a radius of twenty meters. Using a domain isn't very meaningful."

"Don't worry, senior brother," Wang Yu said with a smile. "My wind-elemental domain, if used to suppress an opponent, does only cover a range of ten or twenty meters. But if used for detection," he paused, keeping the audience in suspense, "I estimate it can detect a range of up to a kilometer."

"A thousand meters! That's almost like the sound system!" Lingling exclaimed with delight. "Quickly unleash your domain! Quickly unleash your domain! If it's really that far, catching that wretched sea shark will be no problem at all! How dare it ambush me! I'm going to skin it and make a pair of boots from its hide!"

Wang Yu sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and began to listen intently to the message brought back by the wind element. He hadn't used this technique at full power since he mastered it at Tianlan Magic High School in Bo City. Today was the perfect day to test his limits!

He first summoned the wind elementals closest to him to report. Except for the direction from which the wind spike had come, all the other wind elementals reported no unusual activity. Wang Yu traced back along the direction the wind spike had come from and, with the help of the adorable wind elementals, quickly located the position where the silver-scaled sea shark had launched the wind spike.

But clearly, anyone who can use stealth and ambush tactics has a dirty mind, and the Siren is no exception. Judging from the traces of the wind element being disturbed, after launching the Wind Spike, the Silverscale Shark should have first run away at high speed, then circled around from a distance and slowly approached. If it weren't for Lingling's quick reaction and Xiao Ding's extremely skillful use of the Light Blessing - Wall Painting technique, they might have been ambushed again by the Silverscale Shark that circled around to the shore.

Now, starting from the point of the ambush, Wang Yu commanded the wind element to track and report constantly, finally pinpointing the latest location of the silver-scaled sea shark. It was regrettable that although the silver-scaled sea shark had mastered the ability to attack with the wind element, its control and affinity with the wind element were far inferior to Wang Yu's, to the point that the silver-scaled sea shark could not sense Wang Yu's use of the wind element around it.

A faint blue arrow gradually took shape at a height of more than 30 meters in the air, with several other arrows at different angles to help locate the sharks that each arrow was pointing to.

"Senior Brother Xiao Ding, it's up to you now." Wang Yu thoroughly implemented the spirit of playing a good support role, providing vision and avoiding kills.

"Junior Brother Wang Yu, I heard you also have a wind blade and water blade technique. Anyway, that sea shark's physical strength is average. Why don't you give him a taste of his first? Don't worry, I'll finish him off." Xiao Ding also wanted to hone Wang Yu's skills, so this was exactly what he wanted. Wang Yu maintained the wind element arrow while summoning a water blade in his hand.

"Water Blade Throw!"

Although this move doesn't have a name in the magic system, Wang Yu felt it wouldn't be appropriate not to shout something at this moment.

Under several flashes of light, the water blade hurtled towards the Silverscaled Shark, which had approached within forty or fifty meters of Wang Yu. Sensing danger, the Silverscaled Shark emerged from its stealth for the first time, attempting to dodge quickly to the side. However, although Wang Yu lacked extensive experience as a hunter, he had played video games in his previous life. With the Little Cauldron helping him finish off enemies, Wang Yu boldly anticipated the attack and moved to the side.

in!

The Silverscale Shark, quick to react but not fast enough, tried to dodge to the side, but unfortunately, it dodged its head into the path of the Water Blade. To put it politely, it was instantly beheaded; to put it in the words of a gamer, it was instantly killed by a Q.

"Yay!" Lingling jumped up and high-fived Wang Yu. Xiao Ding also extinguished the flames on his hand and looked at Wang Yu with a gratified expression. A novice mage had hunted down a general-level demon on his own merits; this was something to brag about for a long time.

Now the group could finally reap their spoils. First, there was the Shadowfang Shark. After dissecting it, they found exotic teeth and bones, both excellent materials for making magical tools, easily fetching over a million. Next was the Silverscale Shark. Wang Yu summoned sharp wind blades, and together with Xiao Ding, they skinned the shark. It looked like enough to make three or four pairs of boots for Lingling. The shark didn't drop anything particularly valuable, but that was normal; if exotic teeth and bones were so easy to find, they wouldn't fetch this price.

The best thing about material dealers in Shanghai is that they're always available and efficient at making money. Lingling only made a phone call, and ten minutes later a large truck arrived and took away the demon's corpse. The material dealer who came with the truck bought the alien teeth and bones dropped by the Shadowfang Shark for 1.3 million after Lingling raised the price sharply and he bargained like crazy. Including the 500,000 reward from the city's demon hunting team, the three-person team earned 1.8 million in just a few days! Is there any job that's more lucrative than being a hunter?

As for the distribution of spoils, or rather, the reward allocation, it was originally agreed that the money would be split in a 5:4:1 ratio, with Xiao Ding taking the lion's share, Ling Ling taking a slightly smaller share, and Wang Yu taking a participation bonus. However, after the great battle with the Silver Scale Shark, both Xiao Ding and Ling Ling realized Wang Yu's strength and took the initiative to reduce their share. Wang Yu naturally did not refuse, and in the end, the three of them split the money in a 4:3:3 ratio, with Xiao Ding receiving a slightly larger share, and Wang Yu and Ling Ling receiving the same share.

In the end, after working all night, I actually made 540,000! Qingtian Hunting Grounds, awesome!
