Full-Time Magister: The Evil Emperor Descends

"President, we've discovered traces of the Black Vatican!"

"what?!"

Upon hearing this news, everyone present was startled and turned to look in their direction.

Several high-ranking officials actually knew from Mo Xie that the ancient capital catastrophe was orchestrated by Jiu Ying, one of the cardinals. However, there had been no news about the Black Vatican before, but they didn't expect it to suddenly appear now.

"The Black Vatican..."

Upon hearing the words "Black Vatican," Zhang Xiaohou clutched his head in slight pain. Although Han Ji helped alleviate the pain somewhat, the Forgetfulness Worm could not be eliminated in a short time.

Upon hearing this, Mo Fan, Mu Bai, and Xu Zhaoting exchanged glances, their expressions becoming serious.

In particular, Mu Bai and Zhou Min had no idea that the ancient capital was being besieged by the undead, all because of the Black Vatican.

Zhu Meng looked at the military magistrate who was reporting the news, his face grim, and asked in a deep voice.

"what's going on?"

"Here's what happened. When our Guardian Mages returned to the inner city, they happened to capture two gray-robed priests. After some questioning, they learned some important news: five blue-robed deacons were preparing to hunt down a young man named Mo Xie."

As soon as she finished speaking, Lingxi's delicate body trembled, her once spirited face now turned cold, and her beautiful eyes revealed a barely perceptible killing intent.

"What did you say?!"

Upon hearing the military strategist's words, Mo Fan took a few steps forward, staring intently at the man as if trying to detect a hint of lying in his eyes, and asked in a hurried tone.

"Say it again!"

He had just spoken to Mo Xie on the phone when he heard the news that his brother was going to face five blue-clad deacons alone to hunt him down. How could he not break down?

Everyone knew the Black Vatican's cruel methods, let alone the hunt by five blue-robed deacons. Even knowing that Mo Xie's strength was unmatched among his peers, they couldn't help but feel worried!

"I don't know the specifics either, please calm down!"

The military mage reassured Mo Fan and then explained.

"Although we learned this from the grey-robed priest, it doesn't necessarily mean it's true. Besides, the current situation in the inner city doesn't allow us to send people to search and rescue people."

"No...I have to go find my brother..."

Even with the military strategist's advice, Mo Fan still couldn't calm down and wanted to leave.

"Calm down, Mo Fan!"

Mu Bai, however, pulled Mo Fan back, looked at him earnestly, and tried to persuade him with heartfelt words.

"We all know Mo Xie's strength. He will definitely be fine. On the contrary, you might run into danger by rushing out so recklessly!"

Hearing Mu Bai's words, Mo Fan calmed down a bit, but his worry for Mo Xie remained.

In fact, not only Mo Fan, but Mu Bai and the others were all very worried, but subconsciously they felt that nothing would happen. This was everyone's trust in Mo Xie!

"Da...da...da!"

Just then, the crisp sound of high heels suddenly rang out in the quiet conference room. Everyone present was stunned and turned to look, only to see a graceful figure walking towards the door.

Han Ji was taken aback, and looking at Ling Xi's receding figure, he asked a question.

"Elder Lingxi, what are you doing?" Hearing Hanji's question, Lingxi stopped in her tracks. Her black silk stockings and high heels accentuated her already tall figure.

She didn't turn around, but merely tilted her head slightly, revealing an extremely cold and beautiful face, and said in a cold voice.

"Go save them."

Upon hearing this, Hanji and Zhumeng were taken aback, suddenly realizing that Elder Lingxi might know Moxie, and the next second they couldn't help but feel a sense of guilt.

They were also acquainted with Mo Xie, and the citizens of the ancient capital were able to survive thanks to the latter's reminder. However, the two did not think of rescuing her immediately, which was not as decisive as Ling Xi. It was truly shameful!

Suddenly, before Lingxi could even push open the door, the conference room door was pushed open, and a man whose entire face was completely covered appeared before everyone.

His attire was quite peculiar; he wore a gray-white robe, but his entire face was wrapped in gray-white bandages, as if to prevent anyone from seeing his true appearance.

The man in the grey and white robes slowly walked up, a rare look of shock and panic appearing in his bright eyes as he looked at Han Ji, the president of the Magic Association.

The two clearly knew each other. Han Ji noticed the emotion in the gray-robed man's eyes and was startled.

Even though they hadn't known each other for long, in his memory the man in the gray robe was always calm and composed. This was the first time he had seen him so flustered and at a loss, so he hurriedly asked.

"what happened?"

The man in the grey robe took a deep breath, his gaze sweeping over everyone in the conference room, and spoke in a solemn tone.

"Nine-Headed Serpent, one of the Cardinals...has appeared!"

Upon hearing this, the meeting room fell into a sudden silence, clearly stunned by the astonishing news.

"What did you say?!"

Zhu Meng was the first to process this shocking news. Anger flashed across his face as he glared with eyes that seemed to be on fire and asked.

The expressions of the others were basically the same as Zhu Meng's, their faces extremely angry and solemn, all looking at the man in the gray robe, waiting for his reply.

"Here's what happened. Just over ten minutes ago, a note appeared out of nowhere next to me. It invited us to a gathering at the top floor of the Clock Tower Magic Association. Once we arrived, he would reveal the exact location of the ancient royal tomb. This is the only way to stop the ocean of the dead. The note was clearly marked as 'Leaves to Cardinal Nine-Headed Serpent'."

As he spoke, the man in the grey robe took out the slip of paper and handed it to Hanji.

When everyone looked at the contents of the note, it was indeed exactly the same as what the other party had said, but their anger burned even more fiercely.

It's clear that the catastrophe in the ancient capital was caused by Jiuying, but now this culprit is acting like nothing happened and actually plans to meet with the higher-ups. It's like slapping everyone in the face and publicly humiliating them!
The Magic Association has always possessed the most authoritative power of judgment and execution, and has never been forced into such a desperate situation. They have seriously underestimated the power of the Black Vatican. This is a huge and painful mistake!
But it seems the Black Church is deliberately trying to make the high and mighty Magic Association suffer a fate worse than death, swaggering out like this to slap them hard in the face and humiliate their incompetence!

"Damn beast!"

Zhu Meng was furious and slammed his fist on the conference table, shattering it on the spot.

Feijiao and Duxiao pondered for a moment before finally turning their gaze to Han Ji, as did some of the higher-ups.

After a long silence, Han Ji sighed helplessly, looking as if he had aged several years. His once straight back was now slightly bent, and he said weakly.

"Sigh, whether it's true or not, we have to go. We... we have no other choice!"

The bargaining chip that Jiuying threw out was the ancient royal tomb. In fact, what was truly terrifying about this catastrophe was not that all the dead could come out and do evil in the daytime, but that as all the dead kings from all directions awoke from their slumber, the progenitor of the dead, Ying Zheng, was also about to awaken!
This is a glimmer of hope. If we can find the tomb and stop the ancient king's resurrection, the ocean of the dead will recede!

Humanity... has no other choice!
Ye Chang's expression was conflicted, but she finally decided to go and see Jiu Ying. She had searched for a long time without success, and she couldn't let this opportunity slip by.

Little Xie, your aunt believes you will be safe and sound. Please forgive your aunt... (End of Chapter)
