Chapter 40: The Witchmaster
"What is it?" Zhang Yuanqing had a guess in his heart.
"There was a fight between Spirit Realm Walkers over at Feng Hui District, one dead and one injured, and you are needed to come over to ask about the spirits."
There was a cacophony of voices on Li Dongze's side, as if someone was arguing.
As expected, he knew it was to ask for the spirit, the shikigami looking for himself would definitely not be asking for help, and otherwise, he couldn't help, after all, he was still a child.
"Where's the night wanderer from the Toyohiki district?"
The Taiyi Sect had arranged night wanderers in every major district in Songhai, and on the Kangyang District side was Yuan Ting.
Feng Hui District would naturally have one as well.
"The deceased was a witch-companionist, witch-companionist spirits are notoriously evil and ferocious, and that witch-companionist is still a little different ...... The risk of spirit devouring is a bit high. The Night Wanderer from the Taiyi Sect was unwilling to take the risk and got into an argument with our colleagues in the Fenghui District." There was a low tone in Li Dongze's voice.
As he said that, the noise on the other side of the phone became even more intense.
The spirit body of a sorcerer? Zhang Yuanqing was overjoyed at the words, he had read a lot of occupational information in the past few days, and if they were divided according to their spiritual power, Nightwalker and Illusionist were tied for first place, and Sorcerer Composter was second.
This could go up a lot of experience.
However, Zhang Yuanqing frowned, "Taiyi Sect is also an official organization, this is within the scope of duty, doesn't anyone care about him."
Even if there were risks, since they enjoyed official benefits and treatment, they should do something instead of being a corpse.
"Taiyi Sect is different from the Five Elements Alliance, the number of night wanderers is scarce, the Elder's Council is in the capital, and the night wanderer captains of each region are all at equal rank." Li Dongze's tone was filled with helplessness.
Complaints could certainly be made, but a report would have to be made to the capital, and Songhai didn't have any current management.
Afterwards, he would definitely complain, but right now, he had to do something first.
And because of the ferocity of the Witchmaster Spirit Body, the night wanderers in other districts would not risk their lives for an incident in someone else's jurisdiction.
At this juncture, the importance of the Five Elements Alliance's own Night Wanderer came to the fore.
"I'll be right over." Zhang Yuanqing said.
At this time, he vaguely heard someone speak over the loudspeaker, "Li Dongze, this isn't the right thing for you to do, even though I need to ask the Spirit, he's still level 1 ......"
The words ended abruptly, and Li Dongze hung up the phone.
Zhang Yuanqing hung up the phone, the old Si Ji turned his office chair, turned back and laughed:
"Listening to the voice, it seems to be Li Yuanfang of the second team ..... Feng Hui District's second team hasn't gotten any credit for a long time, and their performance has been at the bottom of the list, which is why that district's night wanderer has such a big rack."
Li Yuanfang? Good name! Zhang Yuanqing spat in his heart.
Guanya added, "The captain of the second team in Feng Hui District is also from our White Tiger Soldier Congregation."
Old Si Ji threw a wink over.
She's hinting at me to get on good terms with the White Tiger Soldier Congregation's mid-levels and sell favors ...... Zhang Yuanqing said with a complicated look:
"Sister Guanya, if you're so nice to me, are you in love with me and want to eat young grass with an old cow?"
Pfft! Wang Tai at the next table was drinking water and sprayed it out at once.
He looked at the two coworkers with some horror, when did they get good at it, and I didn't even notice it at all?
"Old Ox?" Guanya's willow eyebrows rose up, her glossy forehead veins throbbing, biting her plump lips, "Yuan Shi, I think we still have time for one more fight before the shiksa's car comes back."
"I was wrong!" Zhang Yuanqing was able to flex his muscles.
........
The black commercial car pulled into the Feng Hui District Security Department, and through the window glass, Zhang Yuanqing saw Li Dongze leaning on his cane, waiting in front of the office building early.
After getting out of the car, the two nodded and then entered the office building together.
A few minutes later, came to the morgue.
Outside the morgue, within the spacious and bright corridor, there were seven or eight Spirit Realm Walkers gathered, and Zhang Yuanqing casually swept past them, guessing their occupations based on each other's appearance and temperament.
Muscular and grumpy looking, the fire master is not running ...... What is the occupation of the one standing with a bird on his shoulder, well, Shishang said that the wood demon of the Hundred Flowers Society loves animals ..... The one with a wooden expression looks like an earth monster .......
These Spirit Realm Walkers all looked a bit indignant.
Finally, Zhang Yuanqing looked at the middle-aged man who greeted him, this person was about forty years old, with sunken eyes, an eagle nose and thin lips, giving off a stern and serious feeling.
"By way of introduction, this is the captain of the second team of the Feng Hui District, a level 3 scout, and his Spirit Realm ID is Li Yuanfang of the Great Tang." The corners of Li Dongze's mouth spread into a smile as he introduced the other party's ID.
"Li Dongze, you hate to introduce my Spirit Realm ID to others every day," the middle-aged man sighed and looked over at Zhang Yuanqing, his serious face revealing a smile:
"I took this name some years ago when I was obsessed with a TV series with a Great Tang background. You're the newly recruited Night Wanderer from our White Tiger Soldier Congregation, aren't you? You're young and talented."
I don't know if there are any named Dee Renjie, it must be awkward for you two to meet, no, it's hilarious ...... Zhang Yuanqing held back his laughter and eagerly shook the other party's hand, with a mouthful of Captain Hello.
This made Li Yuanfang smile even more on his face, "It's still our own Night Wanderer that's good."
Lamenting, he continued:
"You've heard what happened from Li Dongze, right? I'm sorry to say that the Taiyi Sect's Night Wanderer in the Feng Hui District refused to ask for spirits, so we had no choice but to turn to you."
The muscular young man snorted coldly, "Even if there is a risk in devouring a Witch Compass Master, but it's not so much as to take a life, do we not have risks when we fight against evil professions on the frontline? The Night Wanderer of the Taiyi Sect is always high and mighty, every time we look for them to do something, it's as if we're the ones begging them."
The young man with a bird standing on his shoulder laughed, "That's why it's better to be one's own people."
Li Yuanfang waved his hand, interrupting his subordinate's whining and mused:
"Although Li Dongze has given you his word, I still have to remind you that the spirit power of a Voodoo Compass Master is extremely powerful and chaotic and manic, and that deceased was a Level 3 Voodoo Compass Master.
"His residual spirit body is extremely dangerous, are you sure."
Several members of the team immediately looked at Zhang Yuanqing, their gazes filled with anticipation.
Zhang Yuanqing nodded, "No problem, I'm sure."
The Spirit Realm Walkers of the Feng Hui District showed joyful expressions, Li Yuanfang's expression slightly relaxed as he looked at Zhang Yuanqing with a few more points of recognition.
"Trouble." He said with a nod.
Li Dongze immediately led Zhang Yuanqing into the morgue and closed the door, keeping out his colleagues from the Feng Hui District who were looking forward to coming in to watch.
Leaning on his cane, Li Dongze walked to a steel morgue cart and lifted the white cloth covering the body.
Seeing the body under the white cloth, Zhang Yuanqing was shocked, revealing a stunned look.
This corpse had a head of dark green short hair, dark brown skin rough and tough, elbows, knees and other joints, covered with thick keratin, like armor, nails were ink-colored, the end of the sharp and curved, containing poison.
The skin of his face is also dark brown, lax and dark pupils vertical like snake pupils, the eyeballs are amber-colored.
Li Dongze leaned on his staff with one hand and explained:
"Transcendent realm sorcerer-companion masters have two major means, one is to raise parasites and use them to kill people invisibly. The second is assimilating with the parasites, acquiring an ability based on the characteristics of the parasites so as to improve the ability to fight and kill in close quarters. For example, self-healing ability, vitality, strength, speed, and toxicity ......"
Zhang Yuanqing lamented, "Sounds strong, worthy of being an Evil Profession."
It was worth mentioning that among the native Spirit Realm professions, Witchmaster, Illusionist, and Demon of Compulsion were the top professions, alongside Nightwalker.
Therefore, there were only three Evil Professions and their numbers could not be compared to the official Spirit Realm Walkers.
Li Dongze said, ''He was killed while transforming the compulsion and his body stayed in this form, heh, not an elegant death at all. Precisely because of the fusion with the parasites, the spirit body is full of hostility and bestiality, and the spiritual pollution is extremely high, which is also the reason why the Taiyi Sect's Night Wanderer doesn't want to touch it."
Zhang Yuanqing nodded.
He had the Voodoo Pestle protecting his body and was not afraid of spiritual pollution.
Li Dongze continued:
"The one who fought with him was also a voodoo master, and when our people arrived, they killed one person and the other fled with injuries. Initially, we suspect that this person might be a member of the Spiritual Energy Society or a subordinate of Black Impermanence.
"Get a grip, let's see what clues we can get this time, I think my colleagues in the second team outside can't wait."
Zhang Yuanqing nodded and opened the item bar, taking out the Vorpal Mortar and Pestle and handing it over to Li Dongze, then walked over to the humanoid-type corpse and awakened the residual spiritual energy sleeping in this body.
An illusory figure slowly floated out, with a ferocious and shadowy face in its dullness.
It is even more manic than Ou Xiangrong s spiritual body, both wanting to eat it and not wanting to eat it ....... Zhang Yuanqing sighed silently, sticky black light surged from the bottom of his eyes, occupying the eye sockets as he opened his mouth and swallowed the spirit body into his abdomen.
There was a swelling pain in his brow, and countless messy memories flashed through his mind.
These memories were broken and messy, and Zhang Yuanqing half-read and half-guessed to understand part of the deceased's life experience.
Before he became a Spirit Realm Walker, this Witchcraft Master was a hobo, brave and ruthless, specializing in collecting debts for some loan shark financial companies, watching the scene at nightclubs, playing fairy jumps, forcing women from outside the country to sell sex, and so on.
He has done all kinds of bad things, but he lives a good life.
By chance, he was favored by the Spirit Realm and became a Spirit Realm Walker with a character card from heaven.
He named himself "extra-legal fanatic", and after becoming a Spirit realm practitioner, he was keen on doing charity work, and when he accumulated a certain amount of moral value, he started to kill ordinary people and raped women to give vent to the evil thoughts in his heart.
These broken and messy memories were painful for Zhang Yuanqing, his three views were strongly impacted, and the hostility to scorn everything grew in his heart.
At this time, he read the desired, crucial memory.
In a lavishly decorated tea room, a man whose upper half of his face was covered by a silver mask sat at a glass round table, sipping tea from a ceramic cup.
He looked towards "Zhang Yuanqing" on the other side of the round table and said:
"With the death of the Eerie Eyes Judge, the position of the Eastern Region President of the Spiritual Energy Society is not the owner's. The two Vice-Presidents have been fighting for so many years, and the dust has finally settled."
"How did Judge Creepy Eyes die?" Zhang Yuanqing heard the host's voice.
"This is not something you should know." The man wearing a silver mask had a stern gaze.
"I'm sorry, Lord Deacon."
The masked man's gaze turned soft as he poured him a cup of tea and said:
"Black Impermanence is hiding with the Holy Grail and the Roster; the Holy Grail is a rule-based prop for the profession of Witchcraft, the importance of which cannot be overstated, and the Roster brings together the slaves that Judge Guile Eyes has taken under his wing over the years.
"By controlling the roster, we will be able to control the many Spirit Realm Walkers, both items are very important. Berserkers, our chance to make a mark has come, by helping our master find Black Impermanence and integrating the strength of the Eastern Distinctions Association, we will be able to fight against the Songhai branch of the Five Elements Alliance."
"Then Lord Deacon, what should I do?"
The Extrajudicial Berserker breathed slightly sharply, his tone dark with excitement.
"I have a list of Black Impermanence's subordinates, if you follow the list, you may be able to find Black Impermanence's hiding place, of course, the people on the list have long since gone into hiding, they are 'Rampant', 'Heaven's Way of Injustice ', 'Master kills without blinking an eye', and 'Young woman is very moist', the corresponding reality identity is ......."
