Versatile Mage: Hell Starts, but the Shadow King

Chapter 6 The blood disaster ends, Zhankong throws out an olive branch
"Thank you."

Cheng Xiao smiled and stretched out his hand to ruffle Ye Xinxia's hair.

The latter's cheeks were visibly red, and she looked like a shy little girl who had been recognized by the big brother next door. She was very cute.

"I, I heard from Brother Mo Fan that Brother Cheng Xiao has also joined the cleanup mission. If Brother Cheng Xiao is injured, he must come to me as soon as possible."

The blush on Ye Xinxia's face had not yet faded, but her tone was serious.

"I know. Xinxia is a healing mage that everyone loves. If she were really injured, the first person I would think of would definitely be Xinxia." Cheng Xiao responded with a smile.

"Eh? How did Brother Cheng Xiao know that I'm a healing mage?" Ye Xinxia asked in confusion.

Ah? Don’t I know? Cheng Xiao still smiled and lied without blushing:
"Of course it's because I've been paying attention to Xinxia."

Hearing this, Ye Xinxia was stunned at first, then she lowered her head subconsciously, her beautiful eyes dodging in panic.

Brother Cheng Xiao has actually been paying attention to her.

No wonder Brother Cheng Xiao was able to find her and save her in the first time when the disaster occurred.

When Cheng Xiao was a child, her brother also took good care of her. It turned out that Cheng Xiao had always kept this feeling in her heart.

But isn't it a bit unfair to say this in this situation?
This should be considered a naked confession, right?

"Brother Cheng Xiao, I also..."

"Well, it's getting late, go get some rest, we'll start the cleaning mission early tomorrow morning."

Cheng Xiao didn't hear Ye Xinxia's soft voice and raised his hand to ruffle her hair.

Ye Xinxia nodded in confusion, and was then pushed away by Cheng Xiao.

"Brother Cheng Xiao, isn't that what you meant?"

Only now did she realize that she had been overthinking.

But I feel inexplicably lost, as if something is missing in my heart.

"Brother Cheng Xiao, whether you are injured or not tomorrow, you must come to see me after returning to Anjie, okay?"

Before leaving, Ye Xinxia asked this question with her beautiful eyes gleaming with anticipation.

"it is good."

Cheng Xiao agreed to this request directly.

Hearing the answer, Ye Xinxia's face was covered with a sweet smile again.

late at night.

Safety barrier.

Around the campfire.

"Your Majesty, that girl likes you." Yegrit said without hesitation.

The tall figure of Yegrit did not appear, but the voice came from the shadow and resounded directly in Cheng Xiao's mind.

"I didn't realize, Yegritte, you're quite gossipy." Cheng Xiao said with a smile.

Yegrit coughed dryly twice in embarrassment. Many creatures have the trait of liking to pay attention to gossip, even the commander of the shadow soldiers is no exception.

"It is the duty of a subordinate to share the king's worries." Yegrit found a way out for himself.

"It's normal for a little girl to fall in love for the first time, but now is not the time to waste time on that kind of thing. We must first deal with the monsters in Bo City before we can talk about love." Cheng Xiao said.

It was impossible for him not to be moved by such a beautiful sister like Ye Xinxia.

Ye Xinxia's little action naturally did not escape his eyes.

But he knew what he should and shouldn't do.
"Your Majesty is wise." Yegrit said sincerely.

..............................

The next morning, the dawn, representing the dawn of hope, pierced through the muddy and bloody earth.

Many Sky Eagle Mage Regiments mobilized from the military also descended on Bo City!
The main purpose of the Sky Eagle Mage Corps is to kill the warrior-level creatures in Bo City.

As for the servant-level ones, the Bo City Military Mage led the Bo City Mage Corps to carry out the cleanup.

Mages who join this cleanup, except for official personnel, will receive a large and generous commission.

Cheng Xiao and Mo Fan, who had just broken through to the intermediate level, both joined the cleanup mission.
This mission to clear the city of demons lasted a full week.

After repeated hunting, the residential areas, streets, sewers, and underground tunnels were finally all hunted down.

Cheng Xiao stood in the city that had turned into ruins, and all he saw was desolation.

Only after confirming that all the demons in the city were eliminated did Cheng Xiao feel at ease to let the Shadow Legion return to the shadows.

The battle lasted for seven days and it was a great harvest.

The Shadow Legion's sixteen shadow wolves, and even the three giant-eyed rats, have broken through to the slave-level advancement stage!
With the addition of the extremely powerful legion commander Yegrit, the Shadow Legion can easily kill even a general-level warrior.

Cheng Xiao's own cultivation did not make any breakthroughs, but his physical strength improved a lot.

Cheng Xiao could kill the one-eyed demon wolf just by relying on his physical strength.

This made Cheng Xiao experience the aesthetics of power, a completely human-shaped demon cultivator!
In addition, a lot of essences and residual souls were collected, as many as hundreds!

Among them are two general-level spirits and fifteen servant-level spirits!
This amount of resources is enough to buy a high-quality Galaxy Vein.

Although Cheng Xiao is only a beginner magician now, he has sufficient resources and strength to support him, so it is not difficult for him to improve his cultivation.

"Brother Cheng Xiao, so you are here." Xu Dahuang walked over with big strides.

"Is there anything wrong?" Cheng Xiao asked.

"It's nothing serious. Boss Zhankong just asked you to go find him after you return to the safe barrier." Xu Dahuang said.

"Okay, got it."

"."

..............................

After returning to the safety barrier with the cleaning team, Cheng Xiao found Zhan Kong immediately.

"Brother Cheng Xiao, come on, come on, sit down quickly."

Zhan Kong invited Cheng Xiao very enthusiastically, and did not mind the blood all over his body.

"Military Control Commission, just speak frankly." Cheng Xiao said.

"What Military Control? It sounds so strange." Zhan Kong complained and continued:
“If it weren’t for Brother Cheng Xiao, our army wouldn’t have been able to accomplish this cleanup mission so smoothly. I wonder if Brother Cheng Xiao is interested in joining our military magician.

"As for treatment, I can definitely give Brother Cheng Xiao the best. With your ability, you will definitely make a name for yourself in the military!"

Cheng Xiao's background is very clean, Zhan Kong is relieved.

As for Cheng Xiao's undead system, he used self-awakening and natural talent as excuses to get away with it.

Zhan Kong knew how talented the self-awakened mage was, so he had long thought of bringing Cheng Xiao into the military.
So you want to recruit me. Cheng Xiao shook his head and rejected the olive branch thrown by Zhan Kong:
"I'm sorry, I have no plans to join the military magician for now. I already have plans for the future."

Zhan Kong invited him again and again, but Cheng Xiao refused.

This made Zhan Kong feel regretful, but he couldn't force others to do so.

After struggling back and forth and finally being rejected, Zhan Kong finally gave up completely.

Zhan Kong took out two mage badges and several mage certificates, handed them to Cheng Xiao and said:

"Your hunter points have been settled after the liquidation mission. Congratulations, you have become a senior hunter!
"These two are your mage badges as a necromancer and senior hunter. The commission for the liquidation mission has also been deposited into your hunter account."
