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

Chapter 38 The Black Vatican's Conspiracy

A dozen minutes later.

Ai Tutu obtained important information about the Shadow Beast from Ai Jiangtu.

Chu Ming smiled and nodded, praising, "Student Ai's clues are very useful. The Shadow Beast eats the equivalent of a cow a day, which shows that it has a great fondness for beef. Perhaps... we can pinpoint those beef processing plants in Shanghai."

"But there are quite a few meat processing plants in Shanghai. Some only process beef, but some process both beef and pork." Mu Nujiao frowned slightly as she expressed her thoughts. "There are hundreds, if not thousands, of large and small processing plants in total. The scope is too wide."

"Yes, so we need to find other help!"

Chu Ming smiled and nodded.

He quickly contacted Lingling.

Using her status as a master hunter, Lingling easily contacted police stations in various areas and obtained relevant records about the meat theft cases.

"Brother Chu Ming, I've already investigated what you wanted."

"Meat thefts occur more frequently in Pudong New Area, with the most recent incident occurring in Wan Street, which is close to the port."

"Okay, thank you Lingling."

Chu Ming nodded and hung up the phone.

Afterwards, they headed to the police station in Pudong New Area.

"Mr. Chu, here is the record you requested."

"Because these are all trivial matters, and the theft and destruction involve meat, these cases are mostly just sent to check, and it's unlikely that a full case will be filed."

The short-haired female clerk said earnestly to Chu Ming.

"Okay, thank you. Also, if anyone reports any theft or damage to the beef, please let me know immediately. This is my contact information..." Chu Ming glanced at the information and said with a smile.

"OK."

The short-haired female clerk blushed slightly as she looked at Chu Ming's handsome face and enthusiastically wrote down his phone number.

He left the police station.

Chu Ming's gaze quickly fell on the location of the port.

We arrived at the port.

The staff, having discovered Chu Ming's identity as a hunter, are investigating the demon incident.

[At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name: 10 ...

They immediately cooperated with the work with great enthusiasm.

Chu Ming entered the beef warehouse and began to search carefully.

According to Ai Jiangtu's information.

The Shadow Beast is a creature whose tail hair easily falls out, and the fallen tail hair has a fluorescent effect.

We now have a clear direction.

The investigation is not difficult.

Chu Ming released Gengar.

Gengar ignores the terrain and travels back and forth, exploring with high efficiency.

It took less than ten minutes.

Chu Ming finally spotted the fluorescent tail hairs in a beef warehouse that didn't seem to be very hygienic.

"This hair is almost turned to powder; that guy has probably been here for several days..."

Chu Ming frowned.

They then left the warehouse and headed to the next suspicious location with Gengar.

however.

Just one hour after Chu Ming left.

A young man with a reckless and unruly demeanor entered the warehouse, led by a staff member.

"Are there really demons? Young man, someone already came to check here, and he said there's nothing wrong!"

The staff member said timidly.

"Huh? Someone got here before me."

Mo Fan's gaze was somewhat surprised.

He tracked his way here, thanks to Zhang Xiaohou's connections.

I thought I would be the first to get the clues.

Has someone already beaten them to it?

"It seems I need to speed things up."

Mo Fan took a deep breath, looked at the warehouse in front of him, and sped up his investigation.

the other side.

Chu Ming had just arrived at the next clue location.

The phone rang.

"Hello, who is this?"

"Mr. Chu, we just received a report that a large amount of beef has been stolen from a warehouse near Xujiang'an. Would you like to take a look?" the short-haired female clerk said softly.

"Okay, thank you. I'll treat you to a meal next time I have time," Chu Ming said.

"Hmm..." came the reply from the short-haired female clerk, as faint as a mosquito's buzz.

……

Night falls.

On the banks of the Xu River.

Five figures dressed in gray cloaks moved swiftly and mysteriously, turning left and right before entering an old factory.

The factory reeked of meat, clearly a workshop that specialized in recycling inferior meat.

"Grey Four, you stay outside," said the tallest man in the grey cloak.

"Yes." The man named Gray Four stayed outside.

"Take down the target. Remember, it must be alive. Failure is not an option. You know the consequences."

Gray pointed at the black beast crawling on the ground, looked at the others, and said coldly.

The other three couldn't help but shudder.

……

Outside the factory.

A young man dressed in purple slowly approached, his gaze sharp.

"Lulu, you stay here, I'll go in and take a look," the man said to the girl with the high ponytail next to him.

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

"Shaoting, why are you following these people?" Lulu asked with concern.

The two originally came to find the Shadow Beast.

But halfway there, for some reason, Xu Shaoting suddenly became a different person.

She didn't understand what had happened.

They could only follow Xu Shaoting all the way here.

"If I don't come out within ten minutes, you leave immediately, understand?!"

Xu Shaoting said very seriously.

Originally, he and Zhang Lulu were searching for clues about the Shadow Beast together.

But when leaving school.

He smelled a very peculiar scent on one of his classmates.

That smell.

He will never forget it.

Black Beast Demon!

The Black Vatican!!

These people in gray robes are definitely from the Black Vatican!

Back then, all of my family members died in that disaster!

These bastards of the Black Vatican are secretly gathering here; they must be plotting some conspiracy again!

They must all be wiped out of this world!!

Xu Shaoting's eyes were filled with hatred!

……

A short while later.

Xu Shaoting slipped in through a slightly damaged window above and stood atop the crisscrossing steel bars, looking down at the empty processing plant.

"One, two, three, four... Strange, where did one go?"

Xu Shaoting looked down from above, his brows furrowed.

"Are you looking for me?"

Suddenly, a cold voice came from behind.

Xu Shaoting's expression changed drastically, and he looked back.

He then noticed that one of the people was standing not far behind him.

How did they discover themselves?

Could it be... that he discovered me when he was following me?

"Lightning Seal - Wrathful Strike!!!"

The situation was urgent, and there was no time to think. Xu Shaoting reacted very quickly, rapidly conjuring magic in his palm.

"Lightning element, the priest's target has been spotted, take him down!"

Gray's eyes lit up.

The other three had already set up an inescapable trap.

At a command.

Black, deformed figures quickly crawled out of the factory's various exits and windows.

Xu Shaoting looked around, his face grim.

I'm surrounded!

There are ten of them ahead.

There are seven on the steel beam.

There are about eight of them coming in from the doorway and windows!

There are a total of twenty-five black beast demons!!

How could he not have thought of that?

These beasts actually set a trap here to surround us!

"I'll fight you to the death."

Xu Shaoting roared, his face contorted with overwhelming hatred, determined to fight to the death!

After rescuing Xu Shaoting and defeating the Black Vatican, the protagonist gains points and can draw new spirits.
