"Oh, I see! I'm just worried about failing!" Song Mengmeng nodded knowingly. If you put it that way, she understands!
"Then you don't need to worry about it. Just tell me the location, and Hu Da and I will go check it out tomorrow!" Song Mengmeng paused, probably because she had eaten her fill, and seemed to be in a very good mood. She readily accepted this dangerous task.
Song Mengmeng's suggestion made Luo Yueling instinctively want to make sarcastic remarks, but before she could say anything, she received a warning look from Hu Yue on the other side.
Seeing that Luo Yueling was honest, Hu Yue turned to Song Mengmeng and nodded, saying, "Okay. However, as you just heard, it's very dangerous there. If you want to go, you must be careful."
We will contact the Exorcists' Association in the Kingdom of Sawadika tomorrow, hoping to get their help.
If possible, I would appreciate it if you could wait a bit longer. Once we've contacted the exorcist guild here, we can set off together.
Although Hu Yue knew that Song Mengmeng was quite capable, she was still somewhat worried since they weren't in China. She wasn't just afraid of the mission failing, but also worried that if something happened to Song Mengmeng, she wouldn't be able to explain herself to that powerful figure when she returned.
"Then let's not go inside, but just learn about it from the outside, that should be okay, right?" Song Mengmeng wasn't particularly insistent on going to the so-called lair of the sorcerer to do anything. She was just curious and wanted to see just how depraved those legendary evil arts could become after so many years of development and evolution!
After finalizing tomorrow's itinerary, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.
Song Mengmeng lived with Hu Da. As soon as they entered the room, Song Mengmeng, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and looked at the small vase placed by the window not far away.
The hotel they stayed at was somewhat similar to a guesthouse in China. Therefore, the decor was very casual and natural, with a distinctly exotic feel.
For example, there are beaded curtains hanging down, and wooden tall cabinets beside the bed. In particular, some of the decorations in the room are unique and interesting.
However, Song Mengmeng remembered very clearly that when she left, there was no small pottery jar on the windowsill that looked like it was handmade.
As for that bunch of unidentified little flowers that are now blooming in the small ceramic jar, I've never seen them before!
She reached out and tugged at Hu Da's sleeve, pointing to the grayish-brown earthenware pot, gesturing for her to look. Hu Da, having noticed the extra item the moment Song Mengmeng stopped, scoffed, "Are they taking advantage of our blindness?!"
"I don't know, but it looks like a simple test." Song Mengmeng slowly approached the small pottery jar, looked down at it, and although she didn't touch it, she could tell what was going on inside. She smiled gently, then turned her head and sighed with some regret: "It seems that this place, what was that... Exorcist Association, isn't entirely clean after all!"
According to Luo Yueling, the first organization they contacted upon arriving was the Exorcist Association of Sawadika, and even the hotel they were staying at was arranged by this association.
If that's the case...
Song Mengmeng thought for a moment, then picked up her phone and sent a message to Hu Yue. Sure enough, she didn't have to wait long before she heard hurried footsteps outside the door, followed by knocking.
"What's going on?!" Hu Yue's face was grim. She had taken off her coat, clearly having arrived in a great hurry. She was wearing a slipper on one foot and the sneakers she had worn when she entered the hotel on the other...
It's clear how shocked Song Mengmeng's message was that she completely forgot about her image, which she always valued!
"Check the room for anything strange or extra!" Song Mengmeng pointed to the small pottery jar by the window and whispered to Hu Yue, "This pottery jar only appeared after we checked in."
If I'm not mistaken, this pottery jar must have been made from human ashes!
"What the hell?!" Luo Yueling, who followed Hu Yue into the room, felt a chill run down her spine when she heard Song Mengmeng's words.
She hurried in and stood beside Hu Yue. The two of them stared at the simple and elegant ceramic jars and vases on the windowsill, their gazes finally settling on the swaying flowers.
They were all very familiar with these flowers.
From the moment they entered the hotel, their room had this pot of flowers that looked incredibly thriving. Although the flowers weren't large, they were so vibrant and full of life that one couldn't help but feel a sense of fondness for them.
Because of the hotel's decor, Luo Yueling and her friends, who checked in first, didn't notice anything wrong with the flowers. In fact, they would even kindly water the flowers when they had free time.
Now it seems...
“Hell Orchid!” Hu Da also took a closer look, and then gave everyone the answer with great certainty: “Do you see the patterns on the petals? It is said to be a flower that only blooms in hell, and it is named after the skull pattern on the petals.”
"You're supposed to be exorcists from the Special Case Unit, right? You come to Sawadika's country and don't you even know the local customs and traditions?!"
Hu Da sighed; she truly didn't know what to say!
Thousands of years have passed, and this world has changed so much that even she, a great demon, almost doesn't recognize it! But these so-called exorcists have lost all their vigor; they're getting worse with each generation!
If things continue like this, humanity will eventually perish, and the collapse of the world will only be a matter of time.
"I...we really didn't think that much about it." Luo Yueling's face flushed red. She never expected that such a basic mistake would actually happen right under her nose.
She used to find it ridiculous when her colleagues were reprimanded like that, but she never expected that when she made a mistake, it would be brought up by a friend of the person she looked down on the most.
This was even more embarrassing for her than being publicly humiliated.
"That's why you died faster than others!" Hu Da smiled slightly and teased without any politeness, "Alright, you don't need to go to the local exorcism association for help tomorrow! Let's just go directly to their door!"
"Why?!" Luo Yueling was slightly taken aback. Seeking help from the local exorcism association tomorrow was something they had just discussed together. How could they change their minds now?! Isn't this a bit too casual and perfunctory?!
