Versatile Mage: Lord of the Styx, but Lord of the Living

Chapter 75: A Rising Star, the Hunter King's Attention (Please Read)
Lu Ran coughed lightly and said:
"If you want to spar with me, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. The concert is about to start. I've already bought some popcorn, so I can't miss it!"

Mu Nujiao and Mu Ningxue remained silent.

It seems that no one wants to show weakness to the enemy.

Although neither woman had any intention of competing now, they both believed that they should not have proposed this, otherwise they would lose.

Ai Tutu's eyes lit up, and she felt her heart rate soar to 180. How exciting!

Seeing the strange atmosphere, Ye Xinxia said softly:

"There are no tickets for this concert. We're a little late. Let's go in and find a seat, otherwise there won't be any place to sit later."

Lu Ran agreed and said jokingly:

"Hurry up, we're too handsome and beautiful, and we're a little too conspicuous. Later on, everyone won't come to see the concert, they'll come to see us."

The girls all burst out laughing, amused by Lu Ran.

The Pearl Academy Gymnasium covers a large area, and many people come to watch concerts on weekends.

Apart from singers holding concerts, other facilities such as basketball and badminton rooms are open as usual.

More than ten minutes had passed from the time we entered the stadium to the time we walked to the concert venue.

During this period, Lu Ran contacted Lingling in advance and told her that he was in the gymnasium.

While Ai Tutu was looking for a location, Lu Ran received a call from Lingling.

"Lu Ran, are you in the gym?"

Lu Ran responded.

Lingling said excitedly:

"Great! The scaly-skinned demon mother is hiding in the gymnasium right now. You might need to take action to kill her!"

As Lingling finished speaking, a man's voice suddenly came in:
"Lingling, the Scale-Skinned Demon Mother has parasitized many students, which means she has kidnapped many lives. If she feels threatened by death, she will definitely bury all those she has parasitized with her.

Can your hunter partner kill the Scalehide Mother instantly before she can react?"

Lingling was very confident in Lu Ran and said firmly:
"Demon man, I believe in Lu Ran. He is the hunter master I brought up. He has hunted down two advanced warriors before! A mere scaly-skinned demon mother is definitely no match for him!"

After Lingling finished speaking, she explained to Lu Ran on the other end of the phone:
"I'm with the City Monster Hunters right now, just outside the gymnasium. However, the City Monster Hunters are all high-level cultivators, so their people can't attack. The high-level aura will directly make the Scaled Demon Mother feel a death threat. So, Lu Ran, I'm leaving it to you!"

Lu Ran wanted to laugh when he heard this.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Lingling was still bragging about herself.

But now is not the time to joke, Lu Ran continued:
"I'll do the work, don't worry."

The call ended, and the people outside the stadium were confused.

"Lingling, who exactly is your hunter partner? He's not a high-level mage, but he's a master hunter?"

Someone immediately raised this question.

Even the Hunting King Du Xiao looked at Lingling with interest.

Lingling raised her head with a bit of pride, raised her face, and said confidently:

"His name is Lu Ran, he's a freshman at Mingzhu Academy and my hunter partner!"

Everyone in the City Monster Hunting Team was stunned when they heard this.

What, freshman?

Letting a freshman deal with a scaly-skinned demon mother with a bunch of slaves and minions is just asking for death!
The demon man was stunned for a moment, but felt that the name was very familiar, Lu Ran?
A team member nearby also reacted and quickly reminded:

"Captain, Lu Ran is the necromancer who was born with dual psychic powers and can summon the spirits of undead warriors. He's the one who beat all the freshmen at Pearl Academy in the Qing campus!"

Atop the giant azure beast, Du Xiao, with his fluttering robes and imposing presence, frowned, also very interested. He asked in confusion, "Necromancer?"

The demon man said:

"Hunter King, it's normal for you to travel all over the place and not know him. This Lu Ran is a rising star in the hunter world!"

Then, the demon man described Lu Ran's legendary experience in a vivid and exaggerated manner.

For example, he advanced from an elite hunter to a master hunter in a single year. Another example was a man who single-handedly beat up all the freshmen in the school at a beast fighting competition, or formed an army by himself, summoning several general-level undead and dozens of slave-level undead.
Du Xiaoting's eyes lit up.

Good seedling.
Are today’s college students so awesome?
Du Xiao asked himself, even when he was young, he was far inferior to Lu Ran!

Du Xiao was called in to help out. He was very angry when he learned that the scaly-skinned demon mother had controlled and parasitized many students and was holding their lifeblood.

He also scolded the members of the city monster hunting team, accusing them of being less efficient than a little girl.

If he took action himself, he could kill the scaly-skinned demon mother with one blow.

But once the scaly-skinned demon mother senses an aura far beyond her level, she will definitely drag all those under her control to death with her.

At that time, there would inevitably be many casualties, which he did not want to see.

But Lu Ran's appearance really gave him a surprise.

If Lu Ran could really kill the scaly-skinned demon mother alone and accomplish this task.

Du Xiao thought it necessary to make friends with this young genius.

A super-class mage, also a hunter king, took the initiative to make friends with a college freshman who only had intermediate cultivation.
This sounds very funny, but Du Xiao knows it.

It is most likely that you will develop a deep friendship with a true genius before he truly grows up.

Otherwise, by the time he rises, it will be too late.

Seeing that the others were still a little flustered, Du Xiao said solemnly:
"Believe him!"

"These students also deserve to live!"

Upon hearing this, the members of the demon hunting team immediately gave up the idea of ​​forcing a charge.

The perimeter of the gymnasium has been blocked off. If Lu Ran and the others were any later, they might not be able to get in.

Lingling breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly thought of something.

It seems that Fan Mo has just entered the gymnasium. I wonder if he will run into Lu Ran?
Inside the gymnasium.

The four girls looked at each other and then looked at Lu Ran solemnly.

Even Ai Tutu no longer had a nonchalant expression and looked very serious.

Although Lu Ran did not press the speakerphone button when answering the phone, everyone present was an intermediate-level magician with strong perception.

What's more, they were so close that they could catch the slightest movement.

Lu Ran had originally only wanted to take Mu Ningxue to hunt a monster, but when he remembered that Ye Xinxia was a psychic mage, he knew that she must have heard what Lingling had just said.

Even if she didn't say it, Xinxia would explain it clearly when Mu Nujiao and Ai Tutu asked.

It would be better to tell the girls yourself.

Immediately, Lu Ran briefly told everyone that there was a scaly-skinned demon mother hiding in the gymnasium.

Ye Xinxia looked worried:
"Brother Lu Ran, is the situation very bad? Should we alert everyone?"

Lu Ran shook his head and said to comfort everyone:

"No need. That would cause panic. I will find the Scale-skinned Demon Mother and deal with her in advance. Don't worry, everything is within my expectations. Don't worry."
