When Ai Li left the funeral home, Xue Cai appeared in front of her looking quite depressed and dejected.

"I'm so sorry, Senior."

"There's nothing to apologize for. This is the reaction any normal person would have when seeing this."

Ai Li waved her hand, interrupting Setsuna's apology.

"This is something that most people can't bear. After all, this is different from simply killing the enemy. You don't need to feel sorry for it. On the contrary, if your eyes light up when you see an autopsy for the first time, I would worry that you are a pervert."

“Ahahahaha…”

Hearing Ai Li's comfort, Xue Cai didn't know what to say, so she just laughed dryly twice, and then quickly changed the subject.

"So, senior, have you found anything?"

"Well... there are some, but I have no clue yet. Setsuna, have you ever heard of a technique that can drain someone's magic power in a very short time?"

"Why?"

Hearing Ai Li's question, Setsuna was stunned for a moment, and Ai Li walked to the vending machine next to her, bought two bottles of drinks, handed one of the bottles to Setsuna, then looked at the deserted streets around her, and then whispered.

"According to my investigation, I am sure that the other party almost drained the magic power from the victim in a very short time, and then killed him... Well, this technique is quite rare."

"A short time? How short?"

"I'm afraid it won't take more than ten seconds at most. The amount of magic absorbed is basically equal to the level possessed by a vampire from the old times."

"Such a short time?"

Hearing this, Xue Cai frowned immediately. She thought carefully for a moment, then shook her head.

"I'm sorry, Senior, I can't find any similar methods in my memory. If you want to simply break or dispel the magic power, there are several ways to do it, but absorbing the magic power... I'm sorry, I can't think of any clues."

"That's not surprising. Maybe someone created it specifically to fight against demons...Okay, Setsuna, let's go back. It's getting late now, and we have classes tomorrow."

"Okay, senior."

In the end, the two did not do any further investigation, but went back to sleep and continued their classes the next day.

But besides attending classes, Ai Li had another very important thing to do, which was to patrol the entire Genshin Island at night starting today. After all, according to the previous three attacks, the enemy only attacked in the dead of night when humans were resting and the demons were active. Since it was impossible to determine the identity of the enemy, it would be better to use the dumbest method of waiting and catching them in the act.

However, to Ai Li's surprise, Xue Cai also strongly requested to join the mission. Although she was a little worried, she agreed in the end based on the principle that more people means more strength. However, she still specifically told Xue Cai to send a signal to report back once she found the target, and she would rush over as soon as possible.

Xue Cai naturally nodded and agreed.

As for Ellie, she sat on her broom and flew high into the sky to patrol. In this way, she could cover the entire Genshin Island within her field of vision, and she could sense any accidents that occurred anywhere at the first time.

What a peculiar person.

Watching Ai Li disappear into the night sky, Setsuna felt somewhat emotional. She had been in contact with Ai Li for two or three days, but to be honest, Ai Li did not give Setsuna the feeling of being the arrogant and terrifying Fourth True Ancestor as rumored. In fact, many times Setsuna even forgot that Ai Li was the Fourth True Ancestor...

Thinking of this, Xuecai yawned and quickly covered her mouth. She didn't tell Ai Li that she didn't sleep well last night. As soon as she closed her eyes, the bloody heart, intestines and various organs appeared in Xuecai's mind - Xuecai was a sword wizard after all, and she was indeed quite experienced in fighting.

But as Ellie said, chopping a person into a corpse and splitting the corpse open and pulling the intestines out are two completely different things.

Xuecai tossed and turned all night and could not fall asleep. She was drowsy for a while until dawn, and then hurried to go to school. Being a serious person, she certainly did not allow herself to sleep in class. She only rested for a while during the lunch break, but now she was obviously a little sleepy again.

But now is not the time to talk about this.

Xue Cai patted her cheeks vigorously, and her eyes became firm and focused again. According to the senior, the other party would take action every night, so there was a high probability that he would attack the demons tonight, so Xue Cai also concentrated her mind and walked around to inspect - after all, she was nominally here to follow Ai Li to work as a demon attacker, and now that the other party had given her a job, Xue Cai could only execute it.

However, just as Xue Cai arrived at a warehouse area, a loud noise suddenly came from not far away.

"boom!!!"

A violent vibration came along with the explosion, and Xue Cai also turned her head hurriedly to look at the place where the explosion occurred. A fireball with a diameter of tens of meters shot up into the sky, and it set off a violent airflow like a bomb explosion. In the flames, a large black bird was spreading its wings and controlling the flames in front of it.

"Familiar beasts? Are there vampires fighting?"

Seeing this scene, Xue Cai's heart tightened, and then she hurriedly opened the guitar case on her back, and then took out a silver-white spear from it. The next moment the spear instantly stretched out and unfolded, and then Xue Cai grasped the spear tightly and rushed quickly to the place where the explosion occurred.

Not long after, Setsuna arrived at the battle site. At this moment, she could see a man in a suit raising his hands anxiously not far away. Judging from the current situation, he should be the vampire who controlled the firebird. However, unlike what Setsuna imagined, the vampire who controlled the firebird and plunged the entire warehouse area into a sea of ​​fire did not have the slightest smug expression on his face. On the contrary, he was terrified and looked around nervously, as if he was looking for something.

However, the next moment, a scene that Xue Cai could not imagine appeared.

In the flames, a huge, translucent white arm suddenly stretched out, grabbed the wings of the firebird, and tore them off. Although the firebird struggled desperately, it was held tightly by the white hand the next moment, and then quickly disappeared into it.

Is that consuming magic power? !

Seeing this scene, Xuecai suddenly remembered the information that Ai Li had told her before, that "a large amount of magic power can be absorbed in a short period of time". At this moment, she took out the signal gun that Ai Li had given her before from her arms without hesitation, pointed it at the night sky and pulled the trigger.

"Bang!!!"

The bright red light bullet flew into the sky and then dispersed. At the same time, accompanied by a scream, the vampire controlling the firebird beast also fell directly to the ground with blood gushing out of his chest. Although this injury was fatal, he was still able to barely stay alive.

"Are you okay? Cheer up!"

Seeing the injured person, Xue Cai also hurried to his side, but at this moment, a deep male voice suddenly came.

"I never thought there would be any witnesses."

Hearing this voice, Xue Cai raised her head in surprise and looked forward. Not far in front of her, she saw a burly man nearly two meters tall standing, holding a huge axe in his right hand, wearing reinforced armor and robes. At this moment, the man just stared at Xue Cai coldly without saying a word.

"Please stop fighting. Killing the immobilized demons is against the special law for attacking demons!"

"Why should I follow the laws made by those who flatter the demons!"

Facing Setsuna's warning, the man swung the battle axe in his right hand fiercely and roared in a low voice. Then he leaped up and swung the battle axe at the seriously injured vampire next to Setsuna.

"Snow Cloud Wolf!"

Facing the huge axe swung down by the man, Xue Cai had no choice but to wield the spear in her hand in an instant, blocking the man's fatal blow. Both of them trembled at the same time, and then retreated. At this moment, the man's eyes looking at Xue Cai also changed a little.

"That gun, could it be the Type 7 Assault Demon-Subduing Machine Gun? It is engraved with the divine vibration wave drive formula, the secret weapon of the Lion King Organization. I never thought it would appear here..."

As he spoke, the man showed a cold smile.

"Well, since you are the sword wizard of the Lion King Organization, then let me see how powerful you are. I am the sword master of Lotan Lingchia, Rudolf Osta, little girl, let me see how powerful you are!"

Before he could finish his words, the man swung his battle axe again and rushed towards Xue Cai once again.

And Xue Cai gritted her teeth and started fighting with the man again.

The man's skills were quite impressive, as evidenced by the fact that he had nearly killed a vampire from the old times with one strike. But Xue Cai was not weak either. As a sword wizard of the Lion King Agency, she was sent here to monitor the Fourth True Ancestor, of course, not just because she had a pretty face.

Although this does account for the majority of the factors.

"——Demon-destroying dawn, Snow Cloud's divine wolf, quickly help me destroy the evil gods and hundreds of demons with the might of steel!"

As she chanted, Xue Cai stabbed out again with her spear. Although Teacher Jian blocked the attack with his battle axe, he was still hit and flew out. However, Xue Cai obviously had no intention of showing mercy. After succeeding in the attack, she rushed forward directly, and the spear in her hand turned into a violent storm, stabbing at the target in front of her again and again.

"Such a powerful force, and such speed, as expected of the Sword Wizard of the Lion King Organization. Then... it's my turn! Action! Astaroute!!!"

Along with Teacher Jian's roar, the next moment, Xue Cai suddenly saw a petite figure leaping out from behind his burly figure. It was a girl who looked about ten years old, with long blue hair and a cloak. Her blue eyes seemed to be emotionless, cold as a machine.

"The mission is accepted and will be carried out, 'Rose Fingers'."

Following these words without any emotion, Xue Cai saw a huge white arm suddenly jump out from behind the girl and swing towards her with force.

At this moment, Xue Cai had no way to avoid it and could only bite the bullet and stab out.

“——!!!”

The silver-white spear and the white giant hand collided with each other, and a fierce impact of magic and spiritual power broke out. At the same time, the blue-haired girl also showed a painful expression. Her attack did not hit the target. On the contrary, the silver spear in Xue Cai's hand had pierced the white palm...

“Ahhhhhh!!!”

Just when Setsuna was about to completely penetrate the white transparent arm, the blue-haired girl suddenly screamed, and then another arm suddenly emerged from her body and punched Setsuna again!

Can't hide anymore!

At this moment, Xue Cai was holding a spear in her hand, and there was no possibility of dodging. She could only watch the fist getting closer and closer to her, and then...

"Iron armor protection!!"

A clear voice came from the air, and at the same time, a translucent barrier suddenly appeared beside Xue Cai, helping her block the fatal blow. The torrents of magic power collided with each other and then exploded.

At the same time, a figure fell from the sky and landed in front of Xue Cai.

"Sorry, I was dealing with some things just now, so I'm a little late."

Ellie held the magic wand in her hand and looked at the tall man and the blue-haired girl opposite her.

"It seems that you are the criminals I am looking for?"
