Chapter 103 Silence Means Acquisition

Clearly, they were poisoned after he left today or yesterday.

The poison he was given was not uncommon; it was a chronic, deadly poison commonly used by members of the Black Vatican that would slowly erode the mage's body.

If it is not discovered after a day, the poison will further erode the mind, causing the poisoned person to gradually become depraved.

He eventually went insane and died.

There are already ways to deal with this kind of poison trial, but finding the materials is troublesome.

Just now, Judge Zou Ming was instructing these judges to find some antidote materials that were hard to find on the market, so that Wu Liu could prepare them.

On the other hand, it is necessary to blockade and thoroughly investigate Yicheng, while mobilizing the investigative forces of every human town in the surrounding area, and notifying the surrounding states to mobilize social forces, so as not to let the Black Vatican spy Cheng Ying escape.

Wu Liu was certain that Cheng Ying was from the Black Vatican because after discovering that the inspectors had been poisoned by the Black Vatican's signature drug, he immediately went to Cheng Ying's residence. He found it deserted, with all personal belongings destroyed.

This is enough to show that Cheng Ying was worried about her identity being exposed because of her serious injuries.

To create some trouble for the trial and buy time, he quickly fled.

Therefore, Wu Liu returned directly to meet with Judge Zou Ming as the one who started the fire, and explained the matter to him.

At this point, Judge Zou Ming had finished questioning Su Qingqing.

Su Qingqing didn't know much about Cheng Ying's affairs. It was clear that Cheng Ying didn't trust this so-called niece, and that her kindness towards her was for ulterior motives.

Therefore, when questioned by Zou Ming, she only mentioned what she had discovered while following Bai Mo and the other person.

After Wu Liu finished detoxifying the trial committee's supervisory group, she said that Bai Mo's mission was complete.

His next step was to track down Cheng Ying.

He had already left spatial compass positioning marks on all the officials in the trial.

Now he removed the marks from everyone else, leaving only Cheng Ying's.

That's why he's not worried about not finding it.

Speaker Shao Zheng looked at the recent investigation report on the whereabouts of trafficked people in his hand.

His gaze

I lingered for a long time on the page describing the whereabouts of infants and young children.

A ripple stirred in his calm gaze, and a barely audible murmur escaped his lips, "East Blue Magic Association..."

He raised his head, his gaze gazing westward through the floor-to-ceiling windows, as if he could see, through the endless mountains and rivers, the land that overlooks all of Asia.

Through the top of that towering mage tower, so high it seemed to reach the sky, and within its pristine, almost nonexistent, semi-circular dome, one could see the person seated in the most luxurious room.

Magic Airport

Bai Mo led Lingling out.

Since Wu Liu said he had completed the investigative task assigned by the trial committee, then it was completed.

With Wu Liu, a super-level mage, and the spatial compass, the pursuit of Cheng Ying should not be too difficult.

After sending Lingling back to Qingtian Hunting Grounds, Bai Mo returned home.

Upon returning, Bai Mo sensed an unusual tremor in the Silver Hairpin Spear within the Space Nebula, which puzzled him.

He thought this might be related to the hollow willow, so Bai Mo headed towards the hollow willow.

As soon as he approached, the silver hairpin spear in his hand appeared involuntarily, then transformed into a point of silver light and plunged into the hollow willow.

After that, Bai Mo watched as the hollow willow swayed its branches like it was going to a disco, its whole body flashing with silver light, looking completely shady.

Just as Bai Mo was about to step forward to check, the hollow willow instantly withdrew the silver light emanating from its body and returned to its quiet state, as if nothing had happened.

The silver hairpin spear flew out again and was caught by Bai Mo.

I carefully examined the hollow willow tree. It was still the same height, with just the right number of leaves, all adorned with silver light. The tree veins on the trunk were also the same. Compared to before, I didn't find any changes.

Seeing this, Bai Mo had no choice but to turn his searching gaze to the silver hairpin spear in his hand.

Upon closer reflection, the only change the Silver Hairpin Spear underwent on this trip was that it consumed a unique object of the universe with spatial attributes, which lifted some of the restrictions.

So, Bai Mo probed the internal space of the silver hairpin spear with his mind, glanced at it, and quickly discovered something was wrong.

Where once a silvery mist had been, all was now empty; the small bamboo shoot was gone.

It seems that the Silver Hairpin Spear took it to the Hollow Willow. Who knows how much spiritual energy of heaven and earth is inside that bamboo stalk? Who knows what state the Hollow Willow will be able to recover after absorbing it?

Pushing aside the willow branches that kept scratching his face, Bai Mo sensed the thoughts emanating from them.

"Okay, okay, I'll come see you often. You've only been gone a few days."

After sitting there for a while, Bai Mo suddenly remembered that it was already the next semester, and according to the rules, students at the Qing Campus of Mingzhu Academy could choose not to live in the dormitories.

Bai Mo immediately took out his phone and called Ding Yumin.

"Yu Mian, are you at Mingzhu Academy?"

As soon as the call connected, Bai Mo asked.

"No, I was cultivating in the courtyard. You went back?"

"Just got back, what's a yard?"

"I won't be living in the dorms next semester. I've rented a place outside Mingzhu University. Do you want to come?"

"Come on, where are you?"

"I've sent you the location via Fetion."

So Bai Mo followed the direction Ding Yumin had pointed and arrived at a small residential area that was roughly the same size as a villa district. After registering at the gate, Bai Mo was able to enter thanks to his outstanding handsome looks.

Continuing along the inner road lined with flowers along its edges, we soon stopped in front of a small courtyard.

"Knock knock!"

The door opened in a few seconds.

The tall, elegant woman standing inside the door was dressed in her usual black long-sleeved T-shirt and wide-leg pants, as simple as ever, looking at him calmly.

"Come in."

Bai Mo followed her inside. The courtyard was neither too big nor too small, and it was empty except for one path leading to the two-story building.

"It's so monotonous, haven't you thought about planting some flowers or something?"

"Someone will plant it." Ding Yumin glanced at him sideways, her eyes filled with an inscrutable expression.

Bai Mo blinked, walked up to her, and went into the house shoulder to shoulder, saying, "Who? Yun Wu? Anyway, I don't know how to grow flowers."

Ding Yumin didn't answer, because Bai Mo was still talking.

"By the way, how much is the annual rent for this yard? It's quite spacious, since you live alone."

"If you want to live with me, just say so." Ding Yumin looked at Bai Mo, leaned closer, and said softly.

Because they were so close, Bai Mo could even feel the heat emanating from her words hitting his face, making it a little itchy.

Bai Mo couldn't help but scratch his face, completely unconcerned that his ultimate purpose had been guessed before he had even finished laying out his plans. He obediently continued:

"So I decided to share an apartment. Finding a place is such a hassle, and your place is really nice."

"Didn't you say it was a bit monotonous?" Ding Yumin's eyes sparkled, and her lips pursed slightly.

"Oh, I just like things simple."

"It feels strangely empty?"

"With Yu Mian here, it's not empty anymore."

"."

Seeing that Ding Yumin remained silent, as if pondering his words, Bai Mo couldn't help but smile and turn to hug her. His warm body temperature seeped through the thin fabric, and Bai Mo said softly:

"If you don't say anything, I'll take that as a yes."

"1xxxxxxxx68," Ding Yumin recited a string of numbers, her usually calm voice now softened, "This is the landlord's phone number. You... let me go."

"By the way, why did you decide to rent a house?" Bai Mo pretended not to hear her last sentence and made conversation as if he didn't know what to say.

Seeing that she couldn't persuade him otherwise, Ding Yumin quietly leaned against him and casually said, "Be quiet. Also, this house has four rooms."

Before Bai Mo could finish the sentence, "Hmm, what's wrong?" he thought of Mu Nujiao and Ai Tutu, who would be enrolling in Mingzhu School in the second half of this year, and would most likely be looking for housing around this time next year.

How could Bai Mo let them live somewhere else?

"You mean...?" Bai Mo couldn't help but want to confirm his thoughts. But before he could finish his question, the girl in his arms said quietly:

"You're right, but whether you can convince them or not is none of my concern."

Bai Mo felt inexplicably guilty, sensing that the matter was somewhat uncertain. He subconsciously tightened his grip on her arm, saying, "You're being too gentle. You can get angry."

"That won't work. This is the way to make sure you never leave me." Ding Yumin looked up, her eyes somewhat hazy as she drifted into memories. Back then, she was four years old and starting kindergarten. Because of her family situation, she was far more indifferent than she is now, and didn't care about anything, until she met someone.

Her mind was filled with memories of the past buried deep in her heart, but she spoke softly.

"I like it more than you think, mmm~"

Ding Yumin did not finish her sentence.

Bai Mo gazed at her fair and delicate face, her two perfectly proportioned, glossy pink lips resembling a beautiful flower ready to be plucked, or a cherry placed on a porcelain plate.

Couldn't help it

He lowered his head and pressed it on.

Soft and bouncy

Bai Mo sensed this feeling, and seeing a hint of panic appear in the girl's calm, beautiful eyes, he subconsciously closed his eyes.

Having already kissed, Bai Mo was definitely not satisfied with just a light touch.

When you start to feel breathless,

Ding Yumin felt the large hand that had been resting on her body begin to move restlessly, so she gently patted the person.

Seeing that he did not move, Ding Yumin exerted force with her arm.

Push the white ink away.

Her eyes, shimmering with tears, glared at Bai Mo.

"You only know how to bully me!"

I like you.

Ding Yumin could not deny it.

He continued to lead Bai Mo around the room.

After a while, her rosy cheeks gradually returned to their fair complexion, and the two of them walked through the living room, kitchen, guest room, and study before going upstairs to the second floor.

Arriving at a bedroom near the west side, Ding Yumin pointed to the simply and elegantly furnished room and said:

"These are my rooms. You can choose whichever one you want to stay in."

"it is good."

They stayed there until almost evening, had dinner, and then Bai Mo and Ding Yumin bought some daily necessities before officially settling into the courtyard.

He had contacted the landlord of the villa, an elderly man, and for some reason, this fashionable and meticulously groomed old man always looked at him with a scrutinizing gaze during their conversation.

They would also ask him about his family from time to time. If it weren't for the fact that the old man looked very old, and out of respect for the elderly and care for the young, plus the fact that the old man looked alright, they would have been surprised.

Bai Mo left a long time ago, who wants to talk to you for so long?

Bai Mo has already inquired about the main campus and learned that there are only a few students in the Space Department on the main campus. The total number of students in the entire Dimensional Academy is less than one hundred.

Similar to Dimensional Academy is White Academy, which mainly relies on helping people to exchange points for resources.

Because the Shadow element is relatively easy to awaken, the Black Academy has an Academy Black List that all students in the Black Academy can participate in.

The Dimensional Academy also has unique resource acquisition methods. Every student at the Dimensional Academy has the opportunity to participate in ranking competitions in other academies. Rewards are given based on the ranking achieved. The same applies to the Botany Department at the White Academy.

It was precisely because of this that Bai Mo's idea of ​​transferring to another department was dispelled.

I train my mental strength every day, meditate daily, nurture my nebula, and also practice shooting under the guidance of the master craftsman I hired at home.

The higher one's cultivation level, the more one needs to cultivate.

The magical energy required to accumulate for a mid-level third-tier spatial magic system far exceeds the combined magical energy of first and second-tier systems. Even though meditation is an interesting activity for Bai Mo, there's a way to defeat that: repetition.

It can be boring, but not everyone will be defeated by it. People have different goals for becoming stronger, but what they have in common is the desire to become strong.

Therefore, the monotony did not defeat him; he has persisted for so long, and doing these things every day has become a habit.

Following Dean Xiao's teachings, Bai Mo found spatial crystals to serve as array nodes. He then used the essence blood of the Thousand Autumn Cicada to carve array patterns in the courtyard. He also bought pure elemental crystals to make array plates and used his own spatial magic energy as ink to inscribe a spatial warning array in the courtyard. In case a thief broke in, the array would sound an alarm instantly.

A permanent formation is too much work, but a temporary one can be done with his own magical energy.

Time flies when you're training, and before you know it, it's time for the assessment at the main campus.

"I'm very gratified. I remember witnessing the growth of so many people from the freshman orientation to today."

"I remember someone comparing the main campus's assessments to the devil, spurring you on to be ahead."

"This analogy is accurate! Whether you've heard it or witnessed it, it's far more brutal than you imagine—it's not a rumor! All mages whose cultivation hasn't reached the intermediate level are ineligible to participate in the main campus assessment."

Actually, getting into the main campus is very simple, and there is only one standard: reaching the intermediate level.

After Dean Xiao's stern speech, and amidst the students' resentment and indignation, the true content of the main campus assessment was finally revealed.

Dean Xiao took out a rolled-up instruction from his sleeve, and his voice slowly echoed in everyone's ears.

"A few days ago, the school received a commission from the military that required a large quantity of Deep Sleep Flowers as ingredients for a medicine."

The Deep Sleep Flower is a servant-level plant-type demon that is widely distributed in the areas surrounding the Demon Realm. Although they are not very powerful, they have an extremely strong sense of aura. Once they are detected by the flower, they will release pollen that can put people into a deep sleep. Mages have a slight resistance to this pollen.

Your task is to collect Deep Sleep Flowers. You have seven days. Whoever gives me the most will be number one.

"This is the content of your main campus assessment."
