Chapter 185 Red Rift Demon
"There is one here!" Jiang Yu also found a baby's body.
“That’s also true.”
“And here.”
Finally, they found four babies in the Chi Lingyao's belly.
“It’s impossible for a siren to only eat babies and not adults, so there must be another conspiracy behind this matter.” Nanjue said solemnly.
"Jiang Yu, Mu Tingying, go back to Feiniao City first and investigate the matter of the baby being eaten."
Ai Jiangtu said calmly, but in fact, everyone knew that Ai Jiangtu was very angry at this time. Ai Jiangtu was a military magician who protected the people and hated this kind of thing the most.
The reason why Jiang Yu and Mu Tingying were asked to investigate was because Jiang Yu was the chief disciple of the Forbidden City Court, and Mu Tingying was the representative of the Mu family. One investigated from the official side and the other investigated from the folk side, which was very efficient.
"Don't worry, Captain. We will definitely give an explanation for these dead babies and find out who is behind this matter." Mu Tingying said seriously.
Obviously, the training task given to them by the instructor is not only to kill the sea monster, but also to investigate the clues behind this matter. Logically, it should be the Inquisition that should investigate, but now it is handed over to their national government team to investigate. It is obvious that it is not convenient for the Inquisition to intervene in the investigation, and it is very likely that the intervention of the Inquisition will alert the enemy.
There was a gleam in Qin Chen's eyes, because he saw that the bodies of these babies were missing their hearts. If his guess was correct, someone was going to collect the babies' hearts, kill the babies, and then put the blame on the mermaid.
The person behind this is none other than Su Lu, the powerful and ambitious president of the Asian Magic Association. He is a man with great strength and influence. Even if this matter is investigated further, there will be no results.
But Qin Chen would not say it out loud. It would be better to leave this matter to the country to investigate. He is just a high-level mage now and needs to keep a low profile.
"Let me purify these corpses!" Zhao Manyan stepped forward and said.
"Well, let's go find the Red Ling Monster's lair and destroy all of them!" Ai Jiangtu said.
“If we want to eliminate all the sirens at sea, we need to lure them out, and we can’t fight them in water. Otherwise, they will escape into the sea as soon as they sense danger,” Nan Jue said.
"Jiang Shaoxu, aren't you a psychic? Give this little red ling monster a mental hint and let it go home obediently. Then we can take the opportunity to find their lair." Qin Chen said as he caught a red ling monster that was not dead yet.
"Well, I didn't expect you still have brains."
Although Jiang Shaoxu is usually a bit coquettish and often teases men's nerves, her psychic power is indeed strong, and she can do this kind of thing easily.
"Let's go, we follow the Red Ling Monster. It will lead us to the Red Ling Monster's lair. If they dare to eat us humans, let them see our wrath!"
Jiang Shaoxu said angrily after planting a mental suggestion in Chi Lingyao.
Just as Jiang Shaoxu said, they were all young people. They couldn't stand seeing demons harming human babies, not to mention that they were national youth representatives. They were in their youth with a strong sense of justice. If they got angry, they would take action. If the demons dared to eat our human babies, we would lead the team to destroy the demon's nest. They were so impulsive and violent! They followed the Red Ling Monster and came to a broken island. This was obviously the Red Ling Monster's nest. The wind and shadow official fish went to find out the distribution of demons on the island, while others were deploying battle strategies.
"The situation is not very good. There are about 100 to 200 War General-level Red Ling Monsters, and there are about 3,000 sea monkeys in addition."
Guan Yu said after coming back from investigating the distribution of demons.
“The island is broken into pieces, with seawater in the middle. This is not conducive to our battle, and may also allow the Red Ling Monster to escape from the bottom of the sea.” Nan Jue said while looking at the map.
"There are three islands connected here. I can freeze the connection between the three islands so that the sirens cannot escape from the sea."
Mu Ningxue stood up and said that although she was a substitute, she also needed to perform because she knew that substitutes were not always substitutes and could also be promoted to regular players.
"How long will it take for it to freeze completely?"
Ai Jiangtu's eyes lit up and he said, if the island is frozen, the combat environment will be very favorable. At least it will prevent the sirens from using their magic skills and cut off their escape routes.
"I can freeze a 30-centimeter-thick layer of ice in a quarter of an hour. However, if I freeze the island, you can't use fire magic, otherwise my ice will melt, and I won't be able to participate in the battle."
Mu Ningxue glanced at everyone and said that she was much stronger than in the original novel, so naturally she needed much less time.
"Sure. As long as we can freeze the island, it will be equivalent to restricting the power of the Red Lingyao. We can handle the battle."
Ai Jiangtu glanced at Mu Ningxue and said that even if Mu Ningxue didn't use the bow, her strength would still be very strong.
“If we want to annihilate all of these red ling monsters, we need to lure them out.” Nan Jue said.
“That’s easy. Let Mo Fan, the dual-element mage of lightning and fire, bomb the Red Ling Monster’s cave. That will make sure all the Red Ling Monsters come out.” Zhao Manyan said at the right time.
"Ahem, I don't have much defense. If I go alone, I'll be easily besieged."
Mo Fan glared at Zhao Manyan and said, "This jerk actually cheated me."
"You two go together to attract the Red Lingyao's attention, and we will flank him from behind."
Ai Jiangtu glanced at Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan and said that he had read the information of everyone in the team, and the information was very complete. He even knew the hidden strengths of the team members, so he let Zhao Manyan, the turtle mage, go with Mo Fan.
"All right!"
Zhao Manyan said helplessly, this time, even he himself was tricked.
Although Guan Yu's combat power is not very good, his stealth ability is still good. Under his leadership, everyone sneaked into the island smoothly and avoided the ubiquitous sea monkey patrols.
After arriving at the location, the plan officially began. Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan were responsible for attracting the attention of the sea monsters. It must be said that Mo Fan's firepower was very strong, attracting the attention of many red ling monsters and sea monkeys. Mu Ningxue also began to freeze the sea surface.
Before Mu Ningxue's ice element reached a high level, she was no weaker than a high-level ice mage due to her natural talent. Now that she has reached a high level, she has become even more powerful. As long as she comprehends the field of ice, Mu Ningxue's combat power will undergo a transformation.
Red Lingyao doesn't like ice, so they build their nests in caves. It's warm to hide in the caves in winter. When the Red Lingyao feels the power of ice, it rushes towards Mu Ningxue, wanting to kill Mu Ningxue, the ice maker.
As Mu Ningxue continued to release her icy energy, the entire shattered island began to freeze. In just less than a minute, a thin layer of ice had formed on the sea surface. In less than ten minutes, the ice layer had reached a thickness of 25 centimeters. What Mu Ningxue said before was considered modesty.
"What a powerful control of ice. It seems that she will be promoted to a regular member soon." Ai Jiangtu thought to himself.
“Nah na na!!!!!!”
At this moment, groups of red-ling monsters have rushed out of the cave, and even the surrounding sea monkeys are constantly gathering towards them. The red-ling monster rushing in the front is a five-meter-tall guy at the level of a great general. It is shouting to its companions to come quickly and destroy the enemy.
"I'll come and meet it."
Guan Yu had been defeated by Qin Chen before and needed to show off his skills, so he was the first to fight against the general-level Chi Lingyao.
"Attention! Mo Fan and his team have already led the sea monster to our side. In the distance, there are also red-ling monsters and sea monkeys rushing towards us."
Nan Jue reminded that her sound training direction was auxiliary directions such as detection, search, and sound transmission, while Qin Chen's sound training direction was more towards destruction. Although both of them were training in the sound system, their directions were different.
With the addition of the Red Ling Monster and the Sea Monkey, everyone began to fight on their own. Qin Chen did not go to kill the monster, but stayed with Mu Ningxue.
“Nah na na!!!!!”
At this moment, a red whirlwind suddenly emerged from the sea and shattered all the surrounding ice. It was a ten-meter-tall demon, a commander-level red cracking demon.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
After the scarlet cracking monster rushed out of the sea, it rushed directly towards Nanjue. At this moment, Nanjue was entangled by several red ling monsters and could not escape. She could not avoid the attack of the scarlet cracking monster at all.
“Nanjue, be careful!” Zhao Manyan, who had just run back, warned.
Upon seeing this, Nan Jue immediately used her own shield magic tool to try to block the attack of the red cracking demon.
Chaos-Surface
However, at this moment, Qin Chen glanced at Nan Jue and released a Chaos-type intermediate level 3 magic. Suddenly, a 30-meter-wide chaos-colored circular curved surface appeared in front of Nan Jue. The moment the red cracked demon hit the curved surface, its forward direction was bent 90 degrees and it flew out from the side of Nan Jue, while Nan Jue stood there unharmed.
"Fuck, isn't this Chaos Magic too outrageous? It's just a mid-level third-level magic, but it can actually forcibly change the direction of a commander-level attack."
When Mo Fan saw Qin Chen performing chaos magic again, he cursed, as if all the elemental magic he had learned was fake.
“I heard that Chaos is a magic system that can only be awakened by super-class people. This shows that Chaos is very difficult to practice and very powerful!” Zhao Manyan said with emotion.
"Thanks!"
Nan Jue glanced at Qin Chen and said, “This guy seems to be quite good when he is not greedy for money!”
"Qin Chen, come with me to deal with the red cracked monster!"
Ai Jiangtu said that others did not know Qin Chen's strength, but Ai Jiangtu knew it very well.
"No problem. You are responsible for killing it with the curse system, and I will hold it back."
Qin Chen said that he just wanted to verify what he had gained in the past few days. Many of the ancient king’s cultivation insights required practice, and actual combat was the best way to practice.
“Nah nah nah!!!!!!”
The scarlet demon took one look at Qin Chen and realized that it was this human who had used strange magic to divert its attack, so the scarlet demon targeted Qin Chen and rushed towards him at a speed that was much faster than when it attacked Nan Jue before.
Chaos-Surface
Qin Chen stood there without moving at all, and the chaotic curved surface appeared again in front of the red cracked monster.
After the red cracked demon saw the chaotic surface, it of course remembered that it was this thing that had diverted its attack and direction of advance before. This time, it would not let such a thing happen again! The red cracked demon's body actually split apart, and two huge and sharp claws emerged from its body and slashed heavily on the chaotic surface.
Just when the Red Rift Demon thought that the chaotic surface would be easily shattered by it, the chaotic surface suddenly changed a little bit. The originally smooth and horizontal chaotic surface began to become curved and tilted, and the attack point of the sharp claws that fell on the chaotic surface was transferred to the most inclined position of the chaotic surface.
The scarlet demon felt that the power of his claw attack had been reduced by half. The next moment, the scarlet demon hit the curved surface and, just like before, was forcibly twisted ninety degrees and rushed out.
Qin Chen looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction. This was the true meaning of the chaotic surface. The chaotic surface was not an unchanging surface, but one that adjusted its inclination and direction according to the attacker's attack method, in order to achieve the effect of diverting the enemy's attack.
Ordinary chaos mages simply cannot do this, they can only mechanically apply magical offensives and do not know how to transform. You have to know that many magics actually have multiple layers of applications, and sometimes you only need to change the magic to create an additional application.
"Evil Spider Well-Soul Destroyer"
Ai Jiangtu also began to exert his strength at this time. It took him less than two seconds to release the intermediate third-level curse magic. A dark red spider was seen hovering above the red cracked monster.
The eight spider legs bound the body of the red monster like a long line, and the dark red spider silk was entangled in the joints of the red monster, making it difficult for the red monster to move. What was more serious was that the dark red spider was constantly devouring the soul of the red monster through the spider silk. If the red monster did not break free from the shackles of the dark red spider, its soul would be devoured! This was the tyranny and evil of the curse magic, which specifically attacked the enemy's soul and caused irreparable damage to the soul.
“Swish!!!!!”
A red light emanated from the scarlet cracked demon, and then countless blood blades burst out and slashed around, severing all the spider silk bound to its body, and even the dark red spider hovering above its head disappeared.
The red-colored Rift Demon's eyes turned red. Even though the curse magic just now failed to drain away all of its soul, at least one tenth of its soul was drained away. Now it only wanted to kill Ai Jiangtu, the person who drained its soul.
"Ai Jiangtu, if you release high-level curse magic, I will protect you from harm!"
When Ai Jiangtu saw that the red cracking demon was targeting him, he subconsciously wanted to dodge, but after hearing what Qin Chen said, he chose to connect to the curse constellation again. He was quite confident in protecting Qin Chen.
