Chapter 120: The Mage Miss Gets Stymied
At night, the people in the camp had already fallen asleep, while inside the ancient tomb within the air-raid shelter, the two female fierce ghosts had awakened.
Wen Wan'er sniffed and said, "Sister, there is the scent of foreigners in that camp."
Su Li'er nodded and said, "Indeed, the stench of foreigners can be smelled from ten miles away."
Wen Wan'er said happily, "It just so happens I will go capture these few foreigners to nourish your body, sister."
Su Li'er smiled and said, "Then I will trouble you, little sister."
Wen Wan'er immediately changed into a set of modern clothes, left the ancient tomb, and arrived at the camp.
It was already midnight, and David happened to be woken up by the urge to urinate; he immediately got up, left the dormitory, and prepared to go to the restroom not far away.
The yin wind outside made him shiver involuntarily.
David muttered to himself, rubbed his eyes, and looked around, but did not discover anything unusual.
He entered the restroom, relieved himself properly, and then prepared to leave the restroom.
However, he heard the faint sound of a woman sobbing coming from the adjacent restroom.
David was somewhat curious; he walked into the adjacent restroom and asked softly, "Miss, do you need help?"
Wen Wan'er was crying like a flower in the rain and looked back timidly; when David saw this beautiful face, he had originally been suspicious, but the next second, he was somehow bewitched.
Wen Wan'er said with a sobbing tone, "Who are you? How did you come here?"
David hurriedly said, "Miss, don't worry, my name is David, I'm from Group B. You're from Group A, right? Have you suffered some grievance?"
Wen Wan'er followed David's lead and said, "Yes, I always can't keep up with everyone's training, and I feel very guilty inside."
David hurriedly said, "Such training is indeed very hard. To be honest, I also feel like I can't keep up sometimes, but we cannot give up easily."
"How about we have a drink and relax a bit?"
Wen Wan'er smiled and said, "Thank you, but there is no alcohol here, is there?"
David smiled confidently and said, "Don't you worry, I'll take care of this matter."
Wen Wan'er then followed David out of the restroom, and subsequently, David went to the kitchen to sneak out a few bottles of beer.
Wen Wan'er said with some concern, "If others wake up and see us like this, wouldn't it be bad?"
David, thinking of having her all to himself, hurriedly replied, "Indeed, then shall we go to the small woods over there?"
Wen Wan'er immediately said, "The small woods aren't convenient either. I know a place, come with me."
David hurriedly agreed and followed Wen Wan'er into the air-raid shelter.
David didn't feel that it was eerie inside; he drank alcohol with Wen Wan'er and engaged in physical activity.
Once David was tired and fell asleep, Wen Wan'er extended her sharp claws and directly tore open David's heart and stomach.
"Ah!"
David let out a miserable scream and was stunned for two seconds before he died.
Su Li'er appeared before the corpse and smiled, "Hard work, little sister."
Afterwards, she began to eat.
The next morning, the foreign devils of Group B discovered that David was missing, and Morgan immediately took people to search; someone said, "Could it be that the people from Group A are playing tricks?"
Danielle looked at Morgan and said, "Morgan, go ask."
Morgan immediately found Hu Xin and inquired about the matter; Hu Xin hurriedly shook his head and said, "This matter has nothing to do with us."
Morgan asked in confusion, "Then that's strange, where did David go?"
Zhang Wei walked over and asked, "What happened?"
Morgan hurriedly said, "Consultant Zhang, our group's David is missing."
Zhang Wei immediately had a guess; he frowned and said, "Then I'm afraid his situation is dire."
Morgan frowned and said, "Consultant Zhang, what do you mean by that?"
Zhang Wei said indifferently, "Have you forgotten what I warned you about yesterday at noon?"
Morgan immediately asked, "How can Consultant Zhang be sure that David was harmed by an Eastern evil ghost?"
Zhang Wei said very confidently, "I think we can go take a look at that abandoned air-raid shelter; perhaps there will be clues."
Morgan immediately pressed, "So the fierce ghost's lair is in the air-raid shelter?"
Zhang Wei sneered, "Perhaps it was your people who discovered an ancient tomb and awakened those two fierce ghosts."
"Before this camp was lent to us, something happened; a platoon of soldiers went missing."
Morgan said with a grave expression, "Then why didn't Consultant Zhang eliminate them during the day?"
Zhang Wei said with a straight face, "Eastern ghosts are different from yours; they don't necessarily fear sunlight."
Morgan sighed and said, "Alright, I must tell Danielle about this matter."
Zhang Wei nodded and said, "I will go with you."
Morgan and Zhang Wei found Danielle together and recounted the matter.
Danielle frowned and said, "Assemble the team, we are going to take a look at the abandoned air-raid shelter."
Zhang Wei, He Fenni, and the others trained as usual, while he himself followed Danielle and the dozen or so foreign devils to the abandoned air-raid shelter.
Once they reached the entrance, Danielle said with a grave expression, "It seems David is truly in dire straits; the evil aura here is too heavy!"
Morgan immediately took out holy water and a crucifix in preparation, and Danielle also touched the sword at her side.
Zhang Wei, worried about the fierce ghosts inside, also took out a Eight Trigrams mirror and ghost-repelling talismans.
Danielle said, "Morgan, keep an eye on them, I will lead the way."
Zhang Wei stepped forward and said, "I will go with you."
Danielle did not say much more and was the first to enter the air-raid shelter, with Zhang Wei following closely behind.
Morgan shouted to the people of Group B, "Lads, combat formation!"
As soon as this group entered the air-raid shelter, Wen Wan'er and Su Li'er in the ancient tomb smelled them and woke up.
The ancient tomb was airtight, and the sunlight from outside could not shine in, as this did not have much of an effect on the two Fierce Ghosts.
Su Li'er said with some anger: "These foreign devils actually dare to come in, then we can't be polite!"
Wen Wan'er smiled and said: "Isn't this perfect? After eating them, Elder Sister's injuries will recover."
Su Li'er nodded and said: "You go and block their retreat."
Wen Wan'er flew out immediately.
Su Li'er also hid into the void and drifted out.
Danielle walked in the front; the light inside the air-raid shelter was very dim. After walking a few steps, she immediately drew her sword and whispered: "Omnipotent Heavenly Father, please use your holy light to guide me."
The next second, a white light rose from Danielle's sword, directly illuminating the dim air-raid shelter.
Danielle looked back at Zhang Wei, then continued walking forward.
Zhang Wei saw Danielle's raised eyebrows and thought to himself: Hey, what are you being arrogant about, you foreign woman? Isn't it just light? Watch me!
Zhang Wei pointed at the Eight Trigrams Mirror, chanted a spell to consecrate it, and shouted in a low voice: "Command!"
A massive amount of golden light erupted from within the Eight Trigrams Mirror, so bright that Zhang Wei almost couldn't open his eyes.
Su Li'er, who was in the void, was also irritated by the golden light; she couldn't help but let out a scream and fell to the ground.
Danielle, who was clearing the path ahead, was stunned for a moment. She immediately turned back and saw Su Li'er, who had fallen between her and Zhang Wei.
Zhang Wei said immediately: "Your holy light is no good; you still need mine."
He looked at Su Li'er and said: "I recognize you. I let you run away last time; let's see where you run this time!"
Su Li'er had not expected Zhang Wei to be here. She felt that this person might have a connection to that mysterious big shot, so she immediately dodged Zhang Wei's attack, flashed directly into the wall, and disappeared.
Danielle glanced at Zhang Wei and then shouted: "Morgan, be careful, the Evil Soul is gone!"
Morgan immediately shouted to the people of Group B: "Attention, an Evil Soul is gone!"
The people of Group B immediately took out their crosses and Bibles, chanting: "Omnipotent Heavenly Father, please use your holy light to guide us lost lambs!"
This group of people kept chanting, creating an echo inside the air-raid shelter, as if it were Buddhist chanting.
But these prayers were completely ineffective. Su Li'er appeared, waved her hand, and a foreign devil was knocked flying into the wall; his face was immediately covered in blood, and he died instantly.
Zhang Wei hurriedly took out a pile of Ghost-Repelling Talismans and shouted: "Quick, take these Ghost-Repelling Talismans to protect yourselves!"
Morgan looked at Danielle, and Danielle nodded slightly. Morgan immediately shouted: "Quick, take Consultant Zhang's Ghost-Repelling Talismans."
The foreign devils immediately stepped forward and took all the Ghost-Repelling Talismans from Zhang Wei's hands.
The next second, Su Li'er appeared again and attacked one of the foreign devils.
The Ghost-Repelling Talisman in the foreign devil's hand exploded directly. Su Li'er was greatly alarmed and hurriedly retreated into the wall.
Morgan said in surprise: "This piece of paper is actually useful."
Zhang Wei immediately retorted: "Of course, didn't you see just now? Consultant Danielle, we must leave here immediately!"
Danielle frowned and said: "David hasn't been found yet!"
Zhang Wei said anxiously: "Do you want to watch the others die at the hands of the Evil Ghosts?"
Danielle immediately took out her magic staff and shouted: "I will destroy it!"
Zhang Wei cursed "crazy woman" to himself and looked at Morgan, saying: "You hurry and persuade her."
Morgan spread his hands and said: "I am powerless to help."
Beside them, Danielle chanted directly: "Great spirits, angels of the world, please grant me the power to deal with evil."
As soon as she finished speaking, Danielle's clothes rose without wind, and Zhang Wei felt a different aura appear within her body.
Light also appeared in Danielle's eyes, and she said: "Morgan, the Evil Soul is on your left! She is about to strike!"
Morgan was greatly alarmed and hurriedly took out his Bible to defend himself.
"Boom!"
A mass of yin energy struck Morgan's Bible, triggering a small-scale explosion. The people around were blown to the ground, and Morgan took several steps back, hitting the wall.
Danielle wanted to chant more, but Su Li'er had already sensed that something was wrong. She bypassed Zhang Wei and rushed toward Danielle. Danielle hurriedly dodged, looking somewhat disheveled.
Zhang Wei widened his eyes and said: "Damn, ignoring me?"
Zhang Wei immediately took out his repaired Copper Coin Sword, bit his index finger to cast a spell, and shouted: "Go!"
The Copper Coin Sword glowed with orange light and flew directly toward Su Li'er. Su Li'er sensed the danger behind her and, unable to care about Danielle, who was rolling on the ground, hurriedly dodged the Copper Coin Sword.
But the next second, a beam of golden light struck Su Li'er directly.
Su Li'er took the hit head-on, let out a muffled groan, and then flew away.
Zhang Wei said again: "Retreat quickly, it still has companions!"
Danielle also discovered that this space was not conducive to her spellcasting, so she had to say: "Retreat!"
Morgan led the people of Group B to leave first, and as for the sacrificed foreign devil, he was carried away by his companions.
Zhang Wei held the Eight Trigrams Mirror to cover the rear, letting Danielle leave first.
Danielle hesitated for a moment, then left.
Zhang Wei took out his compass and looked ahead; there was no longer any trace of the Fierce Ghosts, so he then retreated.
But not a few minutes later, an explosion came from behind. Zhang Wei cursed "not good" to himself and hurriedly ran over.
He saw another Fierce Ghost knock Morgan to the ground.
Fortunately, the people of Group B still had his Ghost-Repelling Talismans, which saved Morgan.
Zhang Wei immediately took out the Eight Trigrams Mirror and shone it at the Fierce Ghost; the Fierce Ghost immediately flew into the wall and disappeared.
Zhang Wei shouted: "Get out quickly!"
Morgan hurriedly got up and ran out.
After the group came out, they still felt lingering fear when looking at the abandoned air-raid shelter.
Morgan hurriedly said: "Consultant Zhang, it's a good thing you were here, otherwise we would have been in real danger."
Zhang Wei nodded slightly, and he immediately took out the Five-Colored Command Flags from his satchel, setting up a simplified Five Elements Eight Trigrams Array in front of the air-raid shelter.
Danielle was somewhat puzzled and immediately asked, "What is this?"
Zhang Wei explained, "This is a magical artifact crafted by my grand-martial uncle, used for setting up arrays. With this array in place, once those two fierce ghosts come out, the array will take effect, and I will know they have emerged."
Danielle's eyes were filled with curiosity, though she did not show it.
She sensed the aura of elements fluctuating within the array.
Danielle thought to herself: How truly magical; if only I could take it to study.
Zhang Wei put away the remaining items and said, "Let's head back first."
The group passed through the small woods and returned to the campsite.
Hu Xin hurried over and asked, "How did it go, the three consultants?"
Zhang Wei said, "The two fierce ghosts in the ancient tomb are very powerful; I am confident in dealing with one alone, but if both come out together, I won't be able to handle it."
Danielle said, "David has likely been killed; I will explain this matter to the Governor."
Hu Xin nodded and said, "Since the situation is clear, let's continue the training."
"Consultant Danielle, from now on, let Consultant Zhang be responsible for matters related to these Eastern ghosts and monsters."
Danielle glanced at Zhang Wei, gave a light huff, turned her head, and walked away.
Morgan apologized hurriedly, then took the people from Group B and left.
Jin Maiji immediately leaned in and asked, "How was it, Consultant Zhang? Did that foreign woman get humbled?"
Zhang Wei also said with some schadenfreude, "More than just humbled; Group B lost another person. Counting that David, that's two dead."
Chen Hui asked in surprise, "Ah? Is that female ghost very powerful?"
Zhang Wei nodded and said, "Of course she is powerful. You all should be careful as well and keep your Peace Talismans with you at all times."
Chen Hui made a bitter face and said, "No way, if even Consultant Zhang says she's powerful, doesn't that mean I'm done for?"
Zhang Wei laughed, "Then you must train seriously. The foreigner who just died was slapped by the fierce ghost, his head hit the wall, and he was instantly mangled and died on the spot."
Frightened by Zhang Wei, Chen Hui did not dare to slack off and trained diligently.
Jin Maiji and the others also dared not be lazy, each of them becoming many times more diligent than before.
Seeing Jin Maiji suddenly working hard, the people from Group B also dared not slack off, especially Danielle, who was still brooding over the matter at the air-raid shelter.
She made up her mind that she must surpass Zhang Wei.
