Physical mage, challenge me to a solo duel!

Jiang Yue and Wang Jiang left for a day, and returned to Zhuchuanyuan Bridge the next day.

This is mainly due to the lack of quarantine; otherwise, it would have been a day later.

The 24-hour isolation mechanism required to leave the interdimensional passage has been criticized by many mages.

In the early stages of the interdimensional portal, some viruses were indeed brought into the mortal world by monsters or mages, causing several small to medium-sized infections worldwide.

However, the passage between the two worlds has existed for nearly a hundred years and its condition has long been stable. No new viruses have been detected in the past twenty years, nor have there been any small-scale infections.

As for the viruses brought from the magical world, they have long been included in the regular vaccine injection list.

Therefore, the isolation mechanism is particularly time-consuming.

In recent years, there have been growing calls to abolish quarantine measures, and the authorities have put this matter on the agenda, but no results have been announced yet.

However, in emergency situations like Jiang Yue's, where effective treatment cannot be provided in the isolation room, special arrangements are made to bypass the isolation procedures, draw two tubes of blood, and send him directly to the Magic Hospital.

When Jiang Yue left, he was listless and weak, and Wang Jiang had to carry him all the way. When he returned, he was full of energy again.

It seems the treatment at the magic hospital is indeed remarkably effective.

Of course, if he comes back in, he'll have to pay for the ticket again, but Jiang Yue doesn't care.

For the past two days, Wang Yi has been staying at the base to cultivate, not venturing out of the main building.

After reuniting with Jiang Yue and Wang Jiang, Wang Yi explained the situation of the "Tiger Hunting Plan" to them.

Jiang Yue never expected that Wang Yi would take on such a big task for him when he was only away for a short while.

Sure enough, this kid needs a radish hanging in front of his face to keep him motivated.

However, just as Wang Yi had expected, Jiang Yue was not averse to it; on the contrary, he seemed quite satisfied.

Going out to hunt monsters not only provides a boost to cultivation through the interdimensional passage, but also increases combat experience, helps identify and address the team's weaknesses.

A win-win-win situation.

As for danger, if you're afraid of danger, it's better to stay at home.

On the day before their departure, Wang Yi and his three companions were having dinner with Jiang Yingwu and his daughter.

Dumplings before boarding, noodles upon disembarking. Jiang Yingwu even took the time to make dumplings, with mutton and scallion filling.

"When you're away from home, Yingying will have to rely on you guys for a lot of care. I'll offer you a toast with tea instead of wine." Jiang Yingwu was very polite, raising his glass to toast, and Wang Yi and the others quickly responded politely.

Jiang Yingwu made no mention of the location of the Jade Tiger's lair that he had contributed, but instead emphasized the contributions of Wang Yi and the others, making it sound as if he and his daughter owed Wang Yi and the others a great debt of gratitude.

Jiang Yue and Wang Jiang were still a little embarrassed by Jiang Yingwu's attitude, but Wang Yi had already gotten used to it.

Since reaching a cooperation agreement with Jiang Yingying, whenever Wang Yi and Qi Xiaohao go to the restaurant for a meal, as long as she is not busy, Jiang Yingwu will always serve them delicious food with a smile and chat with them for a while.

His words were filled with gratitude, as if Wang Yi had suffered a great loss by agreeing to this cooperation.

Jiang Yingying, standing to the side, would raise her smooth chin, looking somewhat unconvinced, but she didn't seem to want to argue back.

Wang Yi found it rather strange that since it was their first meeting, they had at most completed a business deal, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a fleeting encounter.

How could Jiang Yingwu possibly trust Jiang Yingying to go out with them to hunt the Jade Tiger?

Even if he could earn hundreds of thousands, or even millions, compared to Jiang Yingying's safety, Jiang Yingwu probably wouldn't care.

Having just survived an attack by human mages and already having taken two lives, Wang Yi understood just how low human morality could go in the unregulated interdimensional passage.

You said Jiang Yingying is young and doesn't understand these things, which is understandable.

However, as a seasoned veteran who had spent many years at the Zhuchuan base, even if Jiang Yingwu was just a cook, he couldn't possibly be unaware of certain things without leaving the base.

Therefore, Wang Yi felt somewhat uneasy about Jiang Yingwu's trust, as if he were carrying an inexplicable responsibility.

Of course, it also had something to do with the meal that Jiang Yingwu sent, after all, one is obligated to accept a meal.

Little did Wang Yi know that the more uncomfortable Wang Yi appeared, the more reassured Jiang Yingwu became.

Being able to work as a cook peacefully at Takegawa Hara Bridge is certainly not something an ordinary person can do.

Although Takegawa Hara Bridge does not have a clause prohibiting monks from doing business, not prohibiting it does not mean that it will be supported.

Jiang Yingwu was able to open a restaurant and run it for so many years, so he must have handled interpersonal relationships very well.

Especially the procurement of food. You should know that the raw materials for Jiang Yingwu's cooking also had to be transported in from the outside world through the Star Vortex Channel.

This one step alone is unthinkable without the help of staff.

Although there are many edible monsters in the Takegawa Hara Bridge, and you can buy some here to eat as meat, there are no vegetables, staple foods, or seasonings available here.

The area around Takekawahara Bridge is mostly covered in grass. You can't exactly stir-fry grass with meat or make soup, can you?

Jiang Yingwu had tried it; it wasn't poisonous, but it was truly awful, and even his culinary skills couldn't salvage it.

The fact that he was able to enjoy these advantages was naturally a result of Jiang Yingwu's good interpersonal skills.

He has a good relationship with most of the staff at the Zhuchuan base. Even those he has only a casual relationship with are simply people he doesn't interact with much because of the nature of their work.

Jiang Yingwu was also familiar with many of the mage squads that frequently hunted at Zhuchuan Yuanqiao.

Using a two-pronged approach, Jiang Yingwu discovered the location of the Jade Tiger's lair during their casual conversation.

Although there is a squad of mid-level mages stationed at Takegawa Hara Bridge, and these officials would occasionally go to clear out the mid-level magical beasts that posed a great threat, the Jade Tiger was not on the list of beasts to be cleared out.

Firstly, the territory of the Jade Tiger is relatively fixed, and once it selects a nest, it generally doesn't like to move. Secondly, the Jade Tiger is also quite valuable, so it's important to keep them to reproduce on their own and increase their numbers.

Jiang Yingwu's profound understanding of human relationships naturally stems from his keen insight.

If you can't even judge people accurately, you won't be able to build relationships; you'll only cause accidents.

Therefore, after spending a little time with Wang Yi and Qi Xiaohao, Jiang Yingwu already had a general idea of ​​their situation.

Although I'm not sure about their strength, I at least know they're not bad people.

As the saying goes, fish follow fish, shrimp follow shrimp, and frogs follow toads. The members of such a group are unlikely to be of bad character.

This was corroborated after Jiang Yingwu came into contact with Jiang Yue and Wang Jiang.

If these things hadn't been confirmed, Jiang Yingwu certainly wouldn't have agreed to Jiang Yingying's idea.

What a joke! If he can't control his wife, can't he control his daughter?

Jiang Yingying is still a minor, how could she possibly rebel?

At home, Jiang Yingwu usually acts as someone who listens to everyone, but that's just out of respect. However, when it comes to making a crucial decision, everyone absolutely has to listen to him.

After finishing their dumplings, Wang Yi and his three companions, carrying their newly purchased supplies, stepped out of the base again.

This move undoubtedly garnered a lot of attention from students again, especially since this time, the group included Uncle Jiang's daughter from the restaurant.
