Versatile Mage: Throne of Dimensions

Chapter 25 Unusual Investigation Mission

Su Zhe and the other two walked back to school after eating and drinking.

"Su Zhe, didn't you get a soul? If you don't have any use for it, there will be an auction tomorrow, why don't you sell it?"

Li Xiuxian suddenly proposed, and Su Zhe's mind suddenly moved. He remembered the auction mentioned in the novel, and he still wanted to see it.

"Okay, when will we go tomorrow?"

"Us? I told you not to have a day off every day. Teacher Lin will take you to find a new task tomorrow. Don't worry about the timing of the auction."

Su Zhe sighed, "Okay, okay, what's the mission tomorrow?"

Lin Manxing took over the conversation, "Don't worry, I guarantee your satisfaction, it's in double quotes."

Su Zhe shuddered unconsciously, "Teacher Lin, stop being so pretentious and let me prepare."

Lin Manxing shook his head, "There are so many emergencies in this world that you can be prepared for every time. Just wait."

……

The next day

Su Zhe was awakened by Teacher Lin while meditating. He could feel that his space system was about to break through to the intermediate level. By then, he would be a dual-system mid-level, and he would be ahead of his peers for who knows how long.

Lin Manxing brought Su Zhe to the Hunter League's bounty hall. Su Zhe was speechless, "Teacher Lin, doesn't our school have its own special training method? We have to come to the Hunter League to find tasks every time."

Teacher Lin knocked on Su Zhe's forehead and said, "Boy, this is just for you to experience first. There will naturally be tasks in the school. I'll wait until you finish these things first."

Su Zhe nodded. He just asked out of curiosity. It was also a rare opportunity to have Lin Manxing, a high-level mage, to protect him and practice.

"Look at this mission."

Su Zhe looked at the task panel.

"Crack the mystery of the demon turmoil in Yishan?"

Su Zhe suddenly turned around and looked at Lin Manxing, "Why is this kind of regional reconnaissance mission here?"

Lin Manxing explained with a solemn expression, "This means that the local area is unable to solve this task. To put it bluntly, this task is very difficult."

Su Zhe looked at the mission panel in disbelief, "Impossible, there are so many powerful people in Yanzhao land, no one can find them out?"

Lin Manxing shook his head, "I don't know the specific situation. Maybe those who have the ability to find out the truth about this mission are not free to do it, so this mission appears in our reward hall in Bashu."

Su Zhe looked at this mission with obvious excitement in his eyes. Unfortunately, he was not qualified as an intermediate mage. The prerequisite for accepting this mission was a three-star hunter master.

"Oh, what a pity."

Lin Manxing saw that Su Zhe was caring about his hometown, and patted Su Zhe on the back encouragingly, "One day you will be qualified, practice hard."

"I have found a mission that is very suitable for you and can exercise your investigative skills."

"Finding the source of demonic traces in the city's sewers."

Su Zhe frowned and said, "Teacher Lin, are there any strong demons in the city sewers? There is no experience effect."

Teacher Lin agreed and frowned, "There's nothing we can do about it. Those who need to go out of the city for investigation must be at least commander-level. In a big city like the Kingdom of Abundance, small monarchs don't pay much attention to it, especially the investigation missions at the general level. there is none left."

"Only the problem of monsters in the city will attract attention. Monsters in the city, no matter how big or small, are objects that need to be investigated and eliminated."

Su Zhe nodded in agreement, "Okay, let's take this. It not only has the effect of ability training, but also can eliminate harm for the people, which is not bad."

Naturally, Su Zhe didn't need to figure out the investigation mission on his own. After taking a preliminary look at Su Zhe's personal investigation ability, Lin Manxing began to teach him step by step.

The two of them entered the sewer through the manhole cover. As soon as Su Zhe came down, he was struck by the wind and said, "Teacher Lin, why is there wind in the sewer?"

Lin Manxing waved his hand nonchalantly, "Maybe it's connected to the outside, or it may be a reverse wind due to the difference in air pressure."

"Look at this, there's some hair on the manhole cover...oh, cat hair, but you have to pay attention to the details."

"And this, the break in the sewer line...oh, it's in disrepair."

Lin Manxing took Su Zhe to look at these suspicious places. After reading them, he began to doubt. Who issued this mission? Is he paranoid about being persecuted by demons? Should any hair on a sewer manhole cover be regarded as a quest clue?

Just when Lin Manxing wanted to take Su Zhe back, Su Zhe looked deep into the pipe and narrowed his eyes slightly, "Teacher Lin, do you feel something strange?"

Lin Manxing was slightly startled, "What's wrong, Su Zhe?"

Su Zhe felt it carefully and said, "Teacher, feel the wind."

Lin Manxing stretched out his hand to feel it, "Maybe it's because the sewer is connected to the outside, but..."    Lin Manxing was suddenly startled, "No, why is this wind... it feels like it's blowing on me and makes me confused."

Su Zhe pulled Lin Manxing up and breathed in the fresh air outside, and the dizziness in his mind eased a little.

"Teacher Lin, how do you feel?"

Lin Manxing shook his head, "I feel fine, but there must be something wrong with the wind. You are probably so dizzy because of your low cultivation level."

Su Zhe looked at the entrance of the sewer and felt that the mouth of the well was pitch black like a black hole swallowing life.

No, Su Zhe shook his head, how could I be afraid of a sewer.

Lin Manxing looked at the sewer with a solemn expression, took out his mobile phone and made a call.

"Crooked? Hunter Alliance? There is something wrong with the city sewer mission."

"All right."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Manxing breathed a sigh of relief, and Su Zhe also recovered, "Teacher, what's wrong?"

Lin Manxing sighed, "This mission is a bit strange. I, a high-level mage, can actually be tricked. I can't let you investigate anymore. Let's go to another mission and leave this thing to the Hunter Alliance."

Su Zhe nodded and said hesitantly, "Teacher Lin, I felt a sense of fear just now. I don't know if it was my imagination."

Teacher Lin rubbed his chin after hearing this, "Probably not. At times like this, you must pay attention to details. My cultivation level is higher than yours, but I don't experience the feeling of fear. This is an important clue."

Su Zhe suddenly remembered something, "Teacher Lin, since this can make people feel fear, is it possible that the person who issued the task was also affected by this, so he issued this task suspiciously? After all, we didn't find any obvious monster just now. trace."

Teacher Lin replied: "It's entirely possible, but it's a pity that I can't check who the person who issued the task is, otherwise I would know something from him."

Teacher Lin suddenly asked Su Zhe, "Su Zhe, how long do you think you can resist this dizziness?"

Su Zhe scratched his head and said, "About an hour. We just went down there for 20 minutes before I felt obvious dizziness."

Teacher Lin's eyes showed excitement, "Okay, let's go down and take a look. It will take who knows how many days until the Hunter Alliance sends someone. They are a bunch of inefficient bastards."

Su Zhe helplessly held his forehead and tried to persuade, "Teacher Lin, isn't it a little dangerous for just the two of us?"

Lin Manxing thought for a moment, "That's right, then take this pill."

Su Zhe still trusted Lin Manxing, so he immediately took the pill and took it. It tasted sweet. Unexpectedly, the dizziness in his head disappeared immediately after taking it.

Su Zhe's eyes lit up, "What a good thing. I won't feel dizzy immediately."

Lin Manxing glanced at Su Zhe, "An antidote pill worth one hundred thousand yuan will be deducted from your mission reward."

"Ah!" Su Zhe didn't expect this pill to be so expensive. "No, Teacher Lin, our mission is the lowest level of investigation mission. The total reward is only 100,000."

"Don't worry, if this mission is identified as a more dangerous level, the reward will definitely be more than 100,000." Lin Manxing said angrily, and then he took a pill himself.

"Let's go down and have a look. This feeling of exploring unknown secrets is really good." Lin Manxing's eyes were full of excitement. As a teacher, Lin Manxing had not experienced the unknown feeling when he first became a hunter for a long time.

Su Zhe was pulled down into the sewer by Lin Manxing. Su Zhe followed helplessly. He was willing to follow because Lin Manxing was a high-level space mage. If the situation went wrong, he could take him to the ground instantly. The safety factor is still very high.

Back in the sewer, Lin Manxing felt the direction of the wind while leading Su Zhe towards the source of the wind.

The further we walked, the more serious Lin Manxing's expression became, "This wind... the area is too wide. We have been walking for an hour. I have marked all the roads and did not take the same route. Such a long stretch of road was actually affected. .”

Su Zhe also thought about the horror of this incident and looked at his location on the map on his phone. "Yes, we have walked from the pedestrian street to the JB area."

Lin Manxing took a deep breath, "JB District has prosperous business and a large number of people. If this wind appears on the surface, ordinary people without cultivation will..."

Su Zhe swallowed and said, "Teacher Lin, this disaster has even affected many districts in the Kingdom of Abundance. With our strength, do we still need to investigate further?"

Lin Manxing shook his head firmly, "I will report the situation here when we get support."

Su Zhe looked at Lin Manxing in surprise, "Mr. Lin, I thought you would be like those brainless people in novels, just keep investigating on your own, and then die as the only insider."

Lin Manxing looked at Su Zhe speechlessly, "After all, I am also an experienced hunter and a teacher at Bashu University. How can I be so brainless? You must act within your ability in everything, and so does your kid. Only by living can you have a future."

Su Zhe nodded heavily, "Yes, everything must be done within one's ability."

The constellations above Lin Manxing's head were shining brightly. Su Zhe was dazzled by the numerous stars. He teleported Su Zhe to the surface of the earth with him, startling the passers-by.

Lin Manxing had no time to pay attention to these details. He quickly pulled Su Zhe and ran to the Hunter League. While running, he sent a message to several of his hunter friends, asking them to follow him and report the fact. One more person participated, as above people will pay more attention to it.
