Versatile Mage's Magic Talent

Chapter 232 Lingling Arrives
Mu Ningxue looked at Qin Chen in surprise, her eyes clearly saying, how do you know?

"I have entered your body. How can I not know what you are thinking?" Qin Chen said with a slight smile.

In response, Mu Ningxue gave this shameless guy a beautiful look and rolled her eyes. How long has it been since she was still telling such dirty jokes?

"I have found the information about the Drowning Curse. My hunter partner will arrive tomorrow, and then we will solve this international bounty case together." Qin Chen said.

"Drowning curse?" Mu Ningxue asked curiously.

"Yes, this kind of weird drowning death has happened in many coastal cities. It is called the drowning curse. The Hunter League even has a bonus pool for the drowning curse case. As long as we can solve the drowning curse incident, , you can get the 5000 million in the Drowning Curse bonus pool, which is a big bounty."

Qin Chen said with a hint of excitement in his eyes that he would never feel enough for money, and if he could solve this drowning curse, his hunter level could at least be upgraded to a five-star hunter master. If he needs anything by then, he will publish it directly in the Hunter League Tasks, countless people came to search for him.

"I see!"

Mu Ningxue now understood why Qin Chen was so active. Based on her understanding of Qin Chen, if there was no certain benefit, Qin Chen would be indifferent at all. It turned out to be for the bonus.

The next morning, Lingling, a little loli, came to the door.

"After my investigation, I found that the place where curses occur most frequently in the world is in our city."

Lingling said after listing all the cases of curse-drowning incidents in the world on the electronic map.

"No wonder, I've heard before that eight people have died from being cursed in this city this year," Mu Ningxue said.

"Most of the people who died from drowning were people living by the river and the sea, so later we will go and find out on the spot the situation of the residents near the sea and rivers."

"It would be best to find the family members of those who died due to the curse, and ask them about the state of those people before they died, and see if we can find some similarities."

Lingling kept staring at the computer and said that she was quickly sorting out the information to analyze the reasons for the drowning curse.

Later, Qin Chen and Mu Ningxue went to the city's seaside residents to conduct on-the-spot investigation. Qin Chen knew what was going on with the drowning curse, and it would be best to find a corpse that had just experienced a drowning curse.

Qin Chen used music magic to constantly listen to the sounds around him, and could quickly detect whether there was a sharp drop in life fluctuations around him, while Mu Ningxue was responsible for asking the residents for information about the drowning curse.

Now the range of Qin Chen's music exploration has reached a radius of 3000 meters. Any disturbance within 3000 meters cannot be hidden from his ears. In order to quickly understand the field of music, Qin Chen has been practicing his music during this period. The power of the system.

The reason why he was able to understand the space system and chaos system so quickly was because the ancient king's cultivation insights gave him a lot of inspiration. After all, the magic practiced by the ancient king included space system and chaos system. It was easy to understand by analogy. Realized the realm.

Music is different. Nan Jue, who majored in music in the team, has not yet understood the field of music, let alone Qin Chen, who is not even a minor in music.

However, everything has something in common. He has already understood the realm of space and the realm of chaos. It also has some auxiliary effects on the realm of music. He believes that his understanding will definitely be able to understand the realm of music.

"The life fluctuations are drastically decreasing, and the heartbeat has almost stopped. Found it!"

At this moment, Qin Chen suddenly felt that a heartbeat within the range of his music exploration was getting slower and slower, and it stopped beating in a short period of time.

Qin Chen immediately went to the location of the man whose heart had stopped. However, when he arrived, he saw a sloppy man with a faint water element ice wave on his body. He was a water mage.

"Who are you? What are you doing at my house?"

The water mage said vigilantly, Qin Chen knew at a glance that he was a young master from a noble family, and he must have bad intentions when he came to his poor family.

"Is there someone at home? He is about to die. Why don't you hurry up and take a look?" Qin Chen pointed at the door of his house and said.

"What?" When the water man heard this, he immediately took out the key and opened the door.

"Noko!!!!!!"

However, as soon as he opened the door, he saw a man chained up. The man actually cut his wrist with a knife, drained the blood and put it in a basin. Then he immersed his face in the blood basin and drowned. !
The water man looked at the dead man in despair, his eyes were dull and out of focus. This was his only relative, and he didn't expect that he would die in front of him like this!

At this time, Mu Ningxue also came over. Seeing this horrifying scene, she couldn't bear to look directly at it.

"Hey, Lingling, come here. We found a person who just died due to the curse."

Qin Chen immediately called Lingling. This was a recent case of drowning curse and it was very important to solve the drowning curse.

"We are the hunter masters of the Hunter Alliance. We are investigating the Drowning Curse incident and want to completely solve this Drowning Curse that is endangering mankind. Can you tell us about your brother? We want to know about the Drowning Curse. Then find out the reason and completely solve the drowning curse."

After the water man cried in pain for a long time, Qin Chen asked.

"My brother Noko loves surfing"

Bobby told about his younger brother Noko bit by bit. Naturally, Bobby hated the curse that killed his younger brother, and hoped that someone could completely eliminate it, so for Qin Chen's question, even if it was Bobby, immersed in grief, told these things one by one.

After the narration, Lingling happened to come here.

"Little sister, don't go in!"

When Bobby saw such a cute little loli coming in, he quickly stopped her to prevent her from seeing the bloody scene.

"I am the Master Hunter, you rookie, get out of the way."

Lingling saw this guy with a senior hunter medal blocking her way, so she took out her master hunter license.

"Master Hunter? Senior?"

Bobby felt that his outlook on life had been destroyed. Such a young Loli was actually his senior?
Regardless of Bobby's shock, Lingling came directly to Noko, examined Noko from beginning to end, and then took away some samples for research.

"Find a skilled master to dissect him for research so that we can further confirm the cause of the drowning curse." Lingling said expertly.

"What? An autopsy? No, he is my brother!"

When Bobby heard what Lingling said, he immediately refused.

"If you think that holding a funeral for his intact body is more important than finding the cause of his death, then I have nothing to say." Lingling rolled her eyes at Bobby and said.

"OK then."

Hearing this, Bobby's heart sank and he agreed with Lingling's opinion.

Later, after Lingling's experiments and the jellyfish maggots found in Noko's blood, it was concluded that the cause of the drowning curse was the jellyfish maggots. "This kind of transparent jellyfish maggots enter the human body through seawater, and then absorb the nutrients in the human body to reproduce and grow. They also have the power of mind control and control the human body's thinking."

"When the nutrients of the human body are absorbed by the jellyfish maggots, the maggots will control the human body to go to the seaside. As long as the human body comes into contact with sea water, the jellyfish maggots will get out of the human body and dive into the sea."

"When all the nutrients in the human body are absorbed by the jellyfish maggots, the person is already dead. What is really alive are the jellyfish maggots. When the jellyfish maggots leave the human body, the person will naturally die from drowning."

"This is the truth about the Drowning Curse."

After Lingling sorted out her words, she said with a serious face.

"Doesn't that mean that this kind of jellyfish maggot can transform into any monster, even us humans?" Mu Ningxue asked incredulously.

"That's the theory." Lingling nodded seriously.

"How do we solve this now?"

Bobby seemed to have heard some shocking secret, but what he was most concerned about now was how to solve the curse incident and prevent more people from being harmed by the curse.

"To untie the bell, you must tie the bell. The solution lies in the jellyfish maggots. The current jellyfish maggots are still larvae. We need to put them back into the sea. After they mature, we can find the pathogens in their bodies. Make it into a vaccine so that no one in the world will be infected with the Drowning Curse anymore." Lingling said.

"How long will it take for this little guy to grow up?"

Mu Ningxue frowned and asked, if it takes too long, they won't have time to do this at all.

"The growth of jellyfish maggots is very strange. As long as they enter the body of a demon and devour the demon, they will soon grow into that demon. That's when they mature." Lingling said.

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's mark this little guy and release it back to the sea. We'll be its nanny all the way until it grows up and matures."

Qin Chen stood up and placed a mark of chaos on the jellyfish maggot.

At this time, Mu Ningxue, who had not done many hunter missions, felt a little ridiculous. They actually wanted to put this murderer back into the sea and protect it until it grew up.

"I'm a water mage. I can set up a boat to go to sea with you. I'm very familiar with the nearby waters." Bobby volunteered.

"Okay, let's get ready right away and set off together." Qin Chen nodded.

There are a lot of things that need to be prepared before going to sea, because I don’t know how long it will take, at least a month’s worth of food, fresh water, various overseas medicines, etc. Qin Chen also asked Ai Jiangtu to buy them for him and Mu Ningxue. Half a month's leave.

"Bobby, this is a water spirit seed. I give it to you as a reward for taking us out to sea."

Qin Chen went to the magic market and bought a water spirit seed for Bobby with 2000 million. This was mainly to enhance Bobby's water power so that he could better lead them. After all, he and Mu Ningxue There is no water system, so it is very inconvenient to be in the sea.

Another thing is that the reward for this bounty is very high, and Bobby helps them complete the bounty, which is considered as his reward.

"I can't accept this, it's too expensive!"

Bobby is just an ordinary mid-level water mage, he doesn’t even have a spiritual seed. Seeing such a water spiritual seed in front of him, it would be a lie to say that he is not moved, but when he thinks that he is going to sea not for money, but for solving problems. Drowning curse, Bobby refused.

"Take it. If we can solve the drowning curse, we will get a large bonus. I will give you this spiritual seed because you contributed to this matter." Qin Chen directly put it into Bobby's hand and said.

Now, spiritual seeds are nothing to him. Little Flame Fairy eats soul seed fragments as snacks every day. One soul seed fragment is almost as much as one spiritual seed. Therefore, spiritual seeds mean nothing to him. , just a snack for Little Flame Fairy.

"Thank you."

Hearing this, Bobby no longer hesitated and directly refined it on the spot.

Soon, Lingling also marked the jellyfish maggots. After releasing the tree jellyfish maggots, she immediately sailed a boat to follow it 500 meters behind to protect it.

Fortunately, the jellyfish maggots at this time were weak and could not dive into too deep waters, otherwise they would have been lost.

"Qin Chen, hurry up, it has encountered an enemy, go down and help it deal with it."

Lingling looked at the laptop and shouted.

"Come on, come on, he's such an ill-behaved and bad boy. He always knows how to cause trouble. It's better to have the three little guys I raised."

Qin Chen said helplessly, then jumped directly into the water. At the same time, he used the space system to give himself an air layer to ensure that he could breathe underwater.

Entering the sea, he used the power of space to turn into power, which was equivalent to installing a propeller under his feet, and he quickly shuttled through the sea.

"In the sea, the fire system is suppressed by the sea, and its power is cut in half. The space system's power is reduced by two levels because the space in the sea is more stable. The sound system's power is increased by two levels because it propagates faster in the sea. The Chaos Element has not been suppressed. Should I awaken the Water Element when I reach the super level? The future is the age of the sea. If I don’t awaken the Water Element, it will be a big loss to fight in the sea.”

Qin Chen swam over while comparing his situation in the sea and on land.

"You dare to chase and kill the baby maggots I protect, and you don't know whether to live or die."

Before Qin Chen could figure out the answer, he saw a sea monster covered with swordfish spines chasing the jellyfish maggots that he had planted with the mark of chaos.

"Chaos-Vortex"

Without any hesitation, a chaotic vortex appeared in front of the pursuit of the Jianwei Sea Monster, and the strong devouring force swallowed up the surrounding seawater and the Sword Wise Sea Monster.

The Chaos Vortex can not only swallow magic, but also demons. It has unparalleled crushing power within the Chaos Vortex. The warrior-level sword-wielding sea monster that entered it was directly crushed to death by the Chaos Vortex.

However, Qin Chen did not reverse the chaotic vortex, because the Jianwei Siren after being crushed was very bloody, and a large amount of blood would attract more Jianwei Siren.

"Boohoo!!!!!!!"

However, even though Qin Chen was so careful, he was still discovered by a large number of sword-wielding sea-monsters. He saw black shadows rushing towards him from a distance, each of them a warrior-level sword-woken sea-monster.

Under the investigation of Qin Chen's music system, those sword-wretched sea monsters seemed to be endless, rushing over in a steady stream, as if they smelled some delicious food, making them crazy.

"The sword-wretched sea-monster I just killed couldn't be the prince specially protected by these sword-wretched sea-monsters."

Seeing so many sword-wrecked sea monsters rushing towards him, Qin Chen couldn't help but say that logically speaking, the killing he had just done had absolutely no smell of blood. There was only one explanation for attracting so many sword-wrecked sea monsters.
