Full-Time Mage: Starting with Gengar, selected for the National Tournament

Chapter 142 Too Clever for One's Own Good

"So, what are you planning?"

Chu Ming narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Nan Rongni, speaking softly.

He hadn't made a move yet.

It's not that I'm worried about not being able to cure the siren's poison.

joke.

Gengar is a Poison-type Pokémon.

Not only are they born with an immune system to poisoning, but they can even manipulate external toxic energy for their own use.

At the same time, Gengar, as the representative Pokémon of the Ghost type, also has the ability to absorb life energy.

The toxins completely penetrated into Nan Rongni's body.

It has already merged with life energy.

It may be difficult for ordinary monks to remove poison.

However, Gengar can distinguish this mixed energy and absorb it.

Refining it yourself couldn't be easier.

What Chu Ming was curious about was...

Why did she do that?

Although he didn't have much contact with Nan Rongni.

However, after only a few exchanges...

He knew very well that Nan Rongni, who seemed gentle and kind, was the most typical scheming woman.

Everything we do has a purpose.

She is a healing mage with little combat ability.

Hearing a baby's cry, he stopped his teammates from going in and rushed out to save the baby himself?

That doesn't make sense!

Now, in the Sea Battle City, the baby cries of the White Cry Demon are the most distinctive characteristic of her abilities.

Even though the White Cry Demon is not a common sea monster.

It's understandable that most inland monks wouldn't know.

However, given that Nan Rongni is a graduate of the Maritime Academy.

She couldn't possibly not know.

In addition, she is a girl.

To stand out in the internal competition within a prestigious family.

That is sufficient proof.

She is definitely the most outstanding junior among her peers in the family.

Was he caught off guard by Bai Qiyao because of his haste?

That was such a basic mistake.

Various situations.

This is enough to infer that Nan Rongni's risky actions may have been staged by himself.

Chu Ming had to be cautious.

I've decided to gradually detoxify.

Otherwise, if he wanted to completely detoxify, it would only take a few minutes.

"I, I..."

Nan Rongni's eyes struggled, and she hesitated.

Just as I was about to speak.

Ai Jiangtu walked over and asked Chu Ming, "How is she?"

"Her condition is very bad. The toxins have seeped into her bone marrow. I have only pulled her back from the brink of death. She will need several more treatments to be fully cured."

"Of course, the premise is that you keep using your strength to remove the toxins from her; otherwise, once the suppression is lost, there is a risk that the toxins will rebound and recur."

"Then I'll trouble you to keep an eye on things."

Ai Jiangtu said earnestly.

Nan Rongni is the only healing mage in the team.

Its role is still very important.

The white-clad demon that plotted against her has long since fled, perhaps even disappearing with the receding tide.

It's definitely not going to be found anytime soon.

Since Chu Ming can cure the poison.

Then there's no problem.

When the team members learned that Chu Ming had the ability to completely detoxify, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Now the tide has receded, and the trials are over.

We can't just chase after the receding sea monsters and rush into the demon realm's territory just for Nan Rongni's sake.

Finding a White Crying Demon in the vast ocean is like finding a needle in a haystack!

At this time.

Hearing that his life was entirely in Chu Ming's hands, he felt as if his fate was in Chu Ming's hands.

A bitter smile appeared on Nan Rongni's lips as she muttered to herself, "As expected, a plan devised on the spur of the moment is still too risky..."

……

They returned to Donghai City.

Everyone finally had a chance to relax while waiting for the official resource settlement.

People went out for sightseeing in twos and threes.

I strolled around the seafood night market and then took a look around the Donghai City Auction House.

Chu Ming, however, needed to take care of Nan Rongni, so he stayed at the hospital.

"You can speak now."

Chu Ming looked at Nan Rongni and said calmly.

Nan Rongni glanced at Chu Ming with a complicated expression.

In these two days.

She clearly sensed it.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Chu Ming did something underhanded when he was removing the poison from her.

The White Cry Demon's toxins have changed, transforming into a different kind of mixed toxins.

she knows.

This man has already seen through me.

If I don't speak up soon, the poison will become increasingly troublesome, unless a top-tier healing mage intervenes.

Otherwise, this strange poison will torment you for the rest of your life.

"That day was an accident. The appearance of the White Weeping Demon gave me a sudden idea... I should have told Mu Ningxue before I lost consciousness that there was an antidote inside the White Weeping Demon's tumor, so that she could hunt down the escaped White Weeping Demon..."

"Unfortunately, I underestimated the poison type of that White Cry Demon and overestimated my own poison resistance. Before I could say anything, I passed out."

Nan Rongni recounted her schemes against Mu Ningxue in detail.

It even involves the ancient capital of Muhe and the Black Vatican.

Regarding the Mu family.

Although at the beginning, Bo Cheng Mu Yuang's adopted son colluded with the Black Vatican.

But in families that value bloodlines.

The so-called adopted son is at best equivalent to "being given a name as a servant".

There is no concrete evidence that the Mu family did it, and Yu Ang's matter has been kept under wraps and not spread.

But after the incident in the ancient capital.

The events involving Mu Ningxue's uncle, Mu He, in the ancient capital have definitively confirmed the relationship between the Mu family of Bocheng and the Black Vatican.

And he did it in front of so many high-ranking officials.

The news reached the capital.

The Mu family then completely severed ties.

Since the negative news couldn't be hidden, they simply spread it widely, even threatening to strip Mu Ningxue of her surname "Mu".

Therefore.

Mu Ningxue was subjected to a lot of criticism and everyone avoided her.

But at that time.

Taking advantage of the exchange student opportunity, Nan Rongni approached Mu Ningxue. Like Mu Ningxue, she was from the South and they eventually became friends.

And in the naval battle city.

The chance encounter with the White Weeping Demon gave Nan Rongni a sudden inspiration. She knew that if she were seriously injured and on the verge of death, Mu Ningxue would definitely not stand idly by and would do her best to find and kill the White Weeping Demon.

Unfortunately, despite all his scheming, he risked his life.

However, they did not consider whether they could withstand the poison of the White Cry Demon.

When the poison took effect, he immediately passed out.

After listening to Nan Rongni's plan for Mu Ningxue.

Chu Ming found it all foolish and laughable.

This method was used to lure Mu Ningxue into finding the medicine.

It's like handing your life over to Mu Ningxue.

Of course, given Mu Ningxue's personality, she would most likely go after him without hesitation.

But Mu Ningxue was only a mid-level mage.

What if, during the demon tide, you encounter other sea monsters and are severely injured by them?

Or, even if Mu Ningxue is exceptionally talented and kills the attacking sea monster in the demon tide, will it lead to Bai Qiyao escaping afterward?

The entire process is too uncontrollable.
