Versatile Mage: Choose one of three Hexes at the start

Chapter 97 Missing
Just as Su Chi finished his casual chat with Lin Jun and walked out of the Twin Towers, his communicator rang.

Xinxia?

Looking at the note name displayed on the communicator, Su Chi felt a little confused, but he still answered the call directly.

"Brother Su Chi, something might have happened to Brother Mo Fan!"

As soon as the call was connected, Ye Xinxia's anxious voice came from the other end.

"Xinxia, ​​don't be impatient. Take your time." Su Chi frowned slightly and spoke.

He remembered that Mo Fan went directly to Hangzhou after returning from Jinlin City. It had been more than a month since the last time they met. He didn't expect to hear the news that he had gotten into trouble now.

"A few days ago, after sending me back to the dormitory, Brother Mo Fan said he wanted to go back to Bo City to take a look."

After hearing Su Chi's words, Ye Xinxia's panic seemed to ease a little, and she began to tell the story slowly.

After a long while, when Ye Xinxia finished speaking, Su Chi had a rough idea in his mind.

It has been two years since the Bo City crisis, and Mo Fan's father, Mo Jiaxing, has returned to Bo City early.

A few days ago, after sending Ye Xinxia back to school, Mo Fan returned to Bo City alone to visit Mo Jiaxing. Everything was fine, but unexpectedly, Mo Fan suddenly lost contact the day before yesterday.

At first she thought Mo Fan was busy and didn't pay much attention to it, but it wasn't until today when she found that Mo Fan's phone was turned off that she realized that something might have happened to Mo Fan.

"I understand. Don't worry. Let me ask someone." Su Chi comforted.

"it is good"

After Su Chi hung up the phone, Mu Nujiao beside him asked, "What's wrong?"

"Something seems to have happened to Mo Fan. Let me call him and ask about the situation."

After Su Chi casually explained, he called Lingling again.

beep~
"Hey! What's up?"

Listening to the noise coming from the phone, Su Chi raised his eyebrows: "Are you outside?"

"I'm shopping, of course I'm outside!" Lingling replied.

"Okay, let's talk business first. Have you contacted that kid Mo Fan these days?" Su Chi said directly.

"Mo Fan? No, after you came back from Jinlin City last month, he told me he was going to Hangzhou to visit his sister. We haven't been in touch since then. What happened?" Lingling asked.

"I just received a call from Xinxia, ​​his sister. According to her description, this kid might have been in trouble. I want you to check if anything unusual has happened in Bo City in the past few days." Su Chi explained.

"Okay, I'll go back now."

When Lingling heard this, she realized the seriousness of the problem. Since she didn't bring her computer, she decided to end her shopping and go back directly.

After hanging up the phone with Lingling, Su Chi took Mu Nujiao back to the hotel where they were staying and started packing.

When the two of them had almost finished packing their luggage, the phone in Su Chi's pocket rang again.

"I just checked, and nothing unusual happened in Bo City. And according to Mo Fan's last phone location, he went to a small city called Lecheng."

"Then I searched for information about Lecheng and discovered that something had caused a stir a few days ago. Hunters discovered several bodies in gray robes in the eastern suburbs of Lecheng. It was later discovered that the deceased were all members of the Black Church, including one dressed in blue. There were huge claw marks on his body, as well as traces of lightning and fire."

After listening to Lingling's words, Su Chi had a rough guess in his heart.

The incident probably started when Mo Fan went to Lecheng for unknown reasons and was unfortunately captured by the Black Church. In a desperate situation, he used his blood pill to transform into a demon and kill the group. Then he went directly to the wild to hunt demons and collect residual soul essence. Thinking of this, Su Chi asked again, "Lingling, do you know the location where these bodies were found?"

"I know. Why do you want this... No, do you think these people were killed by that guy Mo Fan?" Lingling reacted quickly and guessed something from Su Chi's words.

Seeing this, Su Chi did not hide it and said directly: "Well, it's almost right."

"But... how is this possible? Mo Fan is only at the mid-level, right? How could he kill so many people, and one of them was a high-level mage?" Lingling felt very incredible.

"There are some things I can't say now, after all, this is just my guess." Su Chi paused.

"Okay." The little girl didn't ask any more questions, but said, "I'll send you the location."

After hanging up the phone.

Su Chi looked at Mu Nujiao beside him and said, "We need to change our schedule."

"Are you going to Lecheng?" Su Chi did not avoid Mu Nujiao when he called just now, so she listened to the whole thing.

"Let's go to the scene of the incident and see if there are any clues." Su Chi nodded.

"it is good."

after one day.

Su Chi and Mu Nujiao returned home.

During his trip to Lecheng, he did discover a clue. If nothing unexpected happened, Mo Fan should have gone straight into Xiling.

However, Xiling was so big that he couldn't just go in blindly to look for someone. He could only wait until Mo Fan made some noise inside before he could determine his approximate location.

After staying at home for a day, Su Chi came to the Mingzhu Mage Tower and found Huo Tuo.

"Mr. Huo, it's been almost a month. How are the forging of my armor and magic tools going?" Su Chi asked directly after meeting Huo Tuo.

"It's almost done, there's only one left." Huo Tuo replied.

When Su Chi heard this, he knew that Huo Tuo was indeed working overtime to make magic tools for him, so he said, "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Huo. I came here today because I have something to do and I want to take away a few of the finished magic tools."

"There's no such thing as luck or hardship. You just get paid for the work. Go ask Xiao Li for it." Huo Tuo waved his hand.

After expressing his gratitude again, Su Chi, led by Li Junnan, went to a special storage room to take out the three completed pieces of armor magic tools.

After leaving the Pearl Mage Tower, Su Chi went to the hunting ground first and gave one of the armor magic tools to Lingling.

The little girl was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling after receiving the gifts.

After staying with Lingling in the hunting ground for a while, Su Chi went straight back home.

"This is..." Mu Nujiao looked at Su Chi who suddenly handed her a miniature pocket magic tool and said with some confusion.

Su Chi took Mu Nujiao's hand and placed the magic tool on it. "This is a high-quality magic tool that I asked someone to forge some time ago. Didn't you say before that you wanted to go sea hunting with me? With this magic tool protecting you, I feel more at ease."

This armor magic tool was forged from dragon scales and inherited some of the powerful abilities of dragon scales, which is immunity to magical damage.

However, due to its material and acquired forging, it is currently only immune to primary magic and some low-level and mid-level magic. Even so, it has already reached the category of top-grade armor magic equipment. Su Chi feels that it should have no problem withstanding a blow from a commander-level red-scaled monster.
