Versatile Mage: The Green Snake with Three Flower Pupils Captures Apas

Chapter 73 God's opponent, pig teammate, gives guidance

(PS: Yesterday's chapter has been revised to show that the black snake poisoned two hunters while shedding its skin. There is no incident of the skyscraper snake suddenly appearing in Hangzhou in this fanfiction.)
The atmosphere on the field was silent for a moment.

Then the presiding judge Tang Zhong stepped forward and acted as a good guy to smooth things over.

"I wonder what is the name of this Excellency the Supreme Being?"

Tang Zhong glanced at Leng Qing and the other girl, then asked Song Zhong respectfully.

"Song Zhong, instructor at Mingzhu Academy, controller of the Heavenly Burning Demon Tower."

Song Zhong glanced at everyone present and said casually.

"So it's Master Song. I apologize on behalf of Councillor Zhu Meng. He has a rather bad temper."

Tang Zhong was slightly stunned and winked at Zhu Meng.

After Zhu Meng went through this, Tietouwa's temper calmed down. He bowed slightly and said:

"I'm sorry, Master Song, I'm just too jealous."

Apart from the super-class mage who was silently observing Song Zhong, no one else dared to speak, wanting to wait and see what would happen.

"With the ability of a supreme monarch-level snake king, if he really took action, do you think there would be corpses left behind?"

Song Zhong said this in a tone of disappointment.

"Master Song is right. I will have my subordinates re-investigate the matter."

Zhu Meng lowered his head and nodded repeatedly.

"Then why don't you go investigate quickly?"

Song Zhong waved his hand and started to drive people away.

"Okay, Master Song, I'll go right away."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Meng felt as if he had been pardoned. He quickly left with the chief guard Wu Pingjing and a group of palace guards.

They left together with those who were neutral and more inclined towards the Forbidden City Magic Association and the Supreme Tribunal of the Oriental Pearl Mage Tower.

The people in the conference room gradually dispersed, and only six people were left in the room: the presiding judge Tang Zhong, Luo Mian with a goatee, Hei Yu with waterfall hair and eagle eyes, Song Zhong, Leng Qing, and Tang Yue.

"I'm afraid Zhu Meng won't let it go so easily."

There was a hint of worry in Tang Zhong's tone. Hearing this, Luo Mian stroked his goatee, frowned and said nothing.

Suddenly, Luo Mian looked at Song Zhong and said:

"I wonder what Master Song thinks of the Totem Black Snake?"

"Stand and watch, but it's better to sit and watch."

Song Zhong pulled over a chair and sat down, crossing his legs calmly.

Luo Mian, “.”

"Councilor Luo, you don't know that totems shed their skin every ten years, and it happens in the next few days. I'm afraid Zhu Meng will use this incident to harm the god we worship."

Tang Zhong said with a worried look on his face, and Luo Mian, the old man, frowned when he heard it.

Song Zhong was speechless. He had never seen anyone reveal their identity and weaknesses. Wasn't this simply giving others an opportunity to use their power?

Sure enough, if you are not afraid of opponents who are like gods, you are afraid of teammates who are like pigs.

What happened next was similar to the original novel. Tang Zhong, unaware that the totem black snake had already passed its molting period, ordered Tang Yue to take it and escape through Baizhen.

The small meeting ended here.

After leaving the meeting room, Song Zhong, Leng Qing and Tang Yue returned to the Three Pools Mirroring the Moon.

Inside the pavilion.

"Song Zhong, what should we do now?" Leng Qing asked.

"Don't worry, we'll be able to tell who has hidden agenda in the next few days. Just wait and see."

Song Zhong took a sip of the fragrant tea in the cup and said lightly.

Leng Qing and Tang Yue nodded silently. After all, the Totem Black Snake was in its prime, and ten Zhu Mengs were not enough to defeat it.

After temporarily saying goodbye to Leng Qing and the other girl, Song Zhong used his instant movement and flew straight towards the West Ridge of Hangzhou.

He picked a large amount of eagle red grass and made some of it into tubes of red potions, all of which were stored in several large storage bracelets.

After finishing all this, Song Zhong returned to Hangzhou. It is worth mentioning that the little Loli Lingling also came to Hangzhou to join in the fun.

Two days later.

A sudden plague broke out in Baizhen. Three people who were infected were covered with blisters and their bodies were corroded and pitted.

Related reports were quickly pushed to newspapers and mobile phone headlines, and people were in panic for a while.

Soon, another day later, the evil guest came to the door.

"Master Song, I didn't expect you to be here too."

Zhu Meng's face darkened as he recalled the bad things that had happened before.

The palace guards behind him looked even more embarrassed. With a semi-forbidden spell wizard guarding West Lake, they wouldn't dare to act recklessly even if they had ten times the courage.

Leng Qing and Tang Yue didn't look happy towards Zhu Meng either, and just left him there in the cold.

"Ahem! Master Song, my people have been investigating for two days and still can't find any evidence of the Black Snake's murders or any clues about the plague. Do you have any advice?"

Zhu Meng learned his lesson this time and bowed slightly to ask for confirmation with the attitude of a junior.

"Let's go. The person who tied the bell must untie it. Let's go to Baizhen."

Song Zhong waved his hand, signaling everyone to follow him to Bai Town, the area hardest hit by the disease.

"Master Song, it's the Black Snake"

Zhu Meng hesitated for a long time before finally speaking.

"I'll vouch for it myself, okay?"

Song Zhong said softly, and Zhu Meng could only nod helplessly when he saw this.

Soon, Zhu Meng brought Song Zhong, Leng Qing, Tang Yue, and Ling Ling to the outside of the isolation area.

After entering the tent meeting room.

Zhu Meng pointed at several healing experts and respectfully introduced them to Song Zhong:
"Master Song, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Lu, the leading figure in the healing arts."

Seeing this, Mr. Lu looked at Song Zhong carefully before speaking:

"Such a young master of semi-forbidden spells is truly unheard of. Master Song, what do you think of this plague?"

Mr. Lu and Zhu Meng were also surprised that there was a semi-forbidden spell mage in charge, and they simply wanted to hear his opinion.

"The Black Snake has always lived in West Lake and has never been to Bai Town. I'm afraid there must be something fishy going on."

Before he finished speaking, Song Zhong continued:

"And I'm curious, shouldn't a poison mage be asked to study something like a plague outbreak?

In addition, the plague broke out in Baizhen, not in West Lake, which means that the black snake has nothing to do with it.

Also, since the plague first broke out in Baizhen, it must be the most suspicious place. Who is responsible? Did the patient experience any similar behavior before his death?

After Song Zhong's analysis, Mr. Lu, Zhu Meng and others suddenly understood.

The beautiful eyes of Leng Qing and Tang Yue behind him were full of surprise, and they were amazed at Song Zhong's ability to infer.

"Now that Master Song mentioned this, I remembered that all the patients had taken Bai Zhen's blood reserve.

In addition, this kind of combat supplies are usually stored in the open-air warehouse of the Western Fortress."

Mr. Lu slapped his forehead and spoke.

"Councilor Zhu Meng, please go and get some of Baizhen's blood potion reserves yourself."

Song Zhong said seriously, and then looked at Mr. Lu and other healing experts.

"Take me to see those patients."

Mr. Lu and others took the lead in front, and Zhu Meng nodded and left.

Plague quarantine area.

There were beds lined up under the white tent, and the people on the beds were covered with dense dark purple pustules on their arms and cheeks.

"This thing doesn't look like plague, but more like some kind of poisonous boil."

Song Zhong said softly, and Mr. Lu and others frowned and dared not speak.
