Chapter 376 The Trail of Fujiwara Ichiura
The battle ended far too quickly. By the time Youxi, Qiqi, and the members of the "Yiran" team arrived at the Songjiang Execution Department's location, half an hour had already passed. The mages of the Songjiang Execution Department had already cleaned up the battlefield.
Zhang Xuanyi leaned against the outer wall of a church in the mage town. There were already seven or eight cigarette butts at his feet. He didn't have a smoking addiction, but at this moment he just wanted to smoke one cigarette after another. His magic power was slowly recovering, and the aftereffects caused by the heavenly lightning were slowly fading, but his mood was not good at all.
Bai Lin stood at the other end of the small square, looking at the magnificent church, and felt a little ridiculous. On the outskirts of this Eastern Magic Execution Department, the most conspicuous building was this Gothic church, and in the battle just now, a magic cannon had blown the top of the church's tallest bell tower to pieces. It was truly ironic.
The mages living in the small towns surrounding the Execution Department were still trembling with fear, huddled inside the department's defensive array, too afraid to come out. Songjiang was the most Westernized place in the entire East; whether ordinary people or mages, they all received Western education from a young age. But who could have imagined that the one attacking them today was none other than their beloved "white moonlight"?
Although the blue-robed wizards had all been wiped out, some of the mages huddled in the protective magic circle were still whispering among themselves: they should cooperate with the investigation by the International Bureau of Magical Investigation, and the way they looked at Bai Lin and Zhang Xuanyi was more like looking at bandits, criminals, and terrorists, as if they were the very people the instigators of the viral weapon that the golden-haired devil was referring to.
For a moment, Bai Lin felt that perhaps he shouldn't have ended the battle so quickly. He should have let the golden-haired devil's magic cannon make these Eastern mages in suits and with permed hair realize reality.
"Captain," Youxi quickly walked to Bai Lin's side and said, "Seventeen people from the Songjiang Execution Department were injured, but no one died... On the Black Abyss side, apart from the one who escaped, a total of thirty-two bodies were found. We seized quite a few wands, brooms, and elemental stones, but the Songjiang Execution Department refused to hand over the three magic cannons to us."
"Well, they hid and didn't dare to come out when they were fighting, but they were very eager to grab the spoils after the battle..." Bai Lin muttered, but he wasn't worried. The Supreme Committee would come to collect the spoils soon. The Songjiang Executive Department just wanted to embellish the results a little when writing the report.
"In addition, Lulu's people have sent in intelligence that they have discovered Fujiwara Ichiura's whereabouts!" Yuuka continued.
Upon hearing the name "Fujiwara Ichiura," Bai Lin immediately perked up. This guy had not only committed numerous evils and was now his mortal enemy, but he was also likely the other person besides himself to have transmigrated to this magical world. Bai Lin had long regarded him as his nemesis. He had originally gone to the historical fragments to train in order to deal with Fujiwara Ichiura, who also possessed an encyclopedia system. Now, Bai Lin was full of confidence and was certain that he could take him down.
"Hey! Brother Zhang!" Bai Lin called out to Zhang Xuanyi with a smile.
On Zhang Xuanyi's side, more than a dozen young men and women had gathered. They were probably all members of the "Yiran" team, mostly Taoist disciples, and likely Zhang Xuanyi's fellow disciples.
One of the older men frowned and stepped in front of Zhang Xuanyi, shouting, "How dare you disrespect the Young Celestial Master!"
Before Bai Lin could speak, Zhang Xuanyi patted the man's shoulder and said, "Step back. The corpses of those golden-haired Japanese devils you just saw were killed by him..." It was clear that Bai Lin had earned Zhang Xuanyi's respect, or rather, awe.
"I've got a big deal up my sleeve. Interested in making a move?" Bai Lin ignored the ordinary team members and went straight to Zhang Xuanyi. Even if you added all of them together, or even just thirty or fifty ordinary mages, they wouldn't be as strong as Zhang Xuanyi.
Zhang Xuanyi's Heavenly Tribulation also earned Bai Lin's respect. From this move, Bai Lin saw many things: powerful magic, flexible tactical thinking, and a determination to die for his cause. All of these showed that Zhang Xuanyi was a powerful ally worth winning over.
Zhang Xuan frowned slightly, but still stepped forward alone and exchanged information with Bai Lin.
Fujiwara Ichiura was already a well-known international fugitive before the "Yunhu Family Annihilation Case," so Zhang Xuanyi naturally had relevant information about him, and even intelligence about the Ship of Light.
"All the evidence points to the fact that the Ship of Light is now in deep cooperation with the US Ministry of Magic, which is why they have this plan to subvert the Eastern magic world," Bai Lin said. "And we have just obtained information on Fujiwara Ichiura's location and plan to pull off a heist."
Zhang Xuan remained expressionless, but inwardly he was filled with doubt. He had previously learned about Bai Lin's close relationship with Yan Nishuang, as well as his help in forming Yan Nishuang's combat team. He even knew that Bai Lin was a member of the "Seekers Family," but after being expelled from Europe, he did not receive further support from the Seekers Family.
However, he was unaware that Bai Lin had Lulu as an ally who could access the Ross family's intelligence network. Therefore, he did not fully trust Bai Lin's intelligence.
However, Zhang Xuanyi had witnessed Bai Lin's strength. If he did not cooperate with him, and Bai Lin really went and killed Fujiwara Ichiura and eliminated "The Ship of Light", then "Yiran", which he had painstakingly built, would be immediately surpassed. Right now, the Supreme Council was in need of personnel. If Bai Lin was promoted out of turn, wouldn't he become his subordinate? Although Bai Lin had already gained respect from the perspective of strength, Zhang Xuanyi absolutely could not swallow this insult.
"Are you leaving the country?" Zhang Xuanyi asked cautiously. He grew up within the Supreme Council system and couldn't be as carefree as Bai Lin when it came to many issues.
"Then don't ask anymore..." Bai Lin glanced at his watch and said, "I'll be waiting for you here at 9 a.m. the day after tomorrow. If you've thought it through, then participate. We don't need too many people." He had looked at the information Youxi had obtained and realized that there was no rush to take action. It would be more prudent to spend a day or two making thorough preparations.
Zhang Xuanyi frowned deeply; Bai Lin's attitude made him feel quite aggrieved.
Before he could answer, Bai Lin waved his hand and said, "Fall back!" Youxi sent a message to the team members, and the group disappeared into the night while blocking Zhang Xuanyi's face. Youxi activated a special teleportation skill that led to the habitat (the encyclopedia system will gradually unlock new skills for team members, most of which are spells that facilitate habitat management).
Zhang Xuan noticed that they neither produced the key to the door nor chanted the incantation for Apparition or summoned a portal, clearly indicating that they had mastered an unknown teleportation spell. This made him feel even more distressed. His innate sense of superiority, stemming from the most powerful magic sect in the East and the prestigious Celestial Master lineage, crumbled in front of Bai Lin.
After returning this time, Bai Lin was in a hurry and didn't stop for a moment. He was really exhausted and had a good sleep with You Qian and Qi Qi by his side.
