Versatile Mage: The Zhou Family's Young Master Forcefully Marries Mu Ningxue

Chapter 10: Demonstrating the Power of Psychic Power, Shooting and Killing the Red-armored Cockroach
Under the bombardment of the third-level thunder seal, there was not even a scratch on the shell of the red-armored cockroach.

"Watt? It's useless?!"

Zhou Haoyu was completely dumbfounded. Isn't this defensive power too exaggerated?

Such strong defense is undoubtedly a general-level demon.

"I encountered a general-level monster on my first monster hunt. My luck is really amazing."

Zhou Haoyu suppressed the panic in his heart. He was mentally prepared. It was obviously unlikely that he had encountered a slave-level demon since the commission that even two elite hunters had failed to complete was impossible.

It often takes a mid-level wizard team to deal with a general-level monster, and it is difficult to do it with just two elite hunters.

Not only that, some powerful general-level demons even require high-level wizards to deal with.

At this time, the red-armored cockroach had changed direction, and its football-sized head was facing Zhou Haoyu.

Suddenly, the extremely hard shell cracked in the middle, and then a pair of transparent wings appeared.

"Could this thing fly?"

Zhou Haoyu suddenly had a bad feeling and hurriedly took the demon-slaying tool in his hand.

His grandfather gave him two demon-slaying tools, one was a Western-style rapier, and the other was the eight-sided Han sword in his hand.

In fact, neither of these two demon-slaying tools quite meets Zhou Haoyu's requirements, but for now he can only make do with them, and then find a way to find a blacksmith to customize a few more later.

With a buzzing sound, the red-armored cockroach disappeared at the stairs the next moment, completely hidden in the darkness.

"Susu~"

Zhou Haoyu's mental power has the ability to sense the surrounding environment. Although it can only sense twenty meters around it now, it is enough to deal with a general-level demon.

With just a thought, Zhou Haoyu used his telekinesis to control the rapier and sent it flying through the air behind him.

In the darkness, the red-armored cockroach was pierced through the abdomen by the rapier that came from nowhere, and its shell was easily broken.

The hard shell that even the third-level thunder seal did not leave any traces on was as thin as tofu in front of the rapier that was shooting towards it.

After Zhou Haoyu cultivated the space system to the intermediate level, his mental power could reach 5,000 kilograms when he burst out with all his strength, which was close to a medium-sized truck. It was simply not something that the red-armored cockroach could resist.

"boom!!!"

Driven by mental power, the rapier pierced through the body of the red-armored cockroach and finally nailed it to the thick wall.

Under the bombardment of this move, many cracks appeared on the walls of the cafeteria, and there was a large dent in the center.

Although Zhou Haoyu had just entered the intermediate level not long ago and could not even release intermediate magic, but with the blessing of mental power, his strength could not be compared with other mages.

In Zhou Haoyu's opinion, he should be able to deal with most general-level monsters now, but a small number of monsters with high-level bloodlines may be more difficult to deal with.

"He's not dead yet."

Zhou Haoyu was secretly shocked when he saw the red-armored cockroach struggling frantically on the sword blade. Its vitality was too terrifying. Could it be that it had the bloodline of some high-level demon beast?
After sighing for a moment, Zhou Haoyu cut off its head with another sword.

To his surprise, even after the head was chopped off, the body was still struggling, but the movements gradually became stiff, and finally died completely.

"It stinks!"

Zhou Haoyu suddenly smelled a strong and pungent stench, like rotten eggs that had been left for more than ten days, which made his stomach churn.

At this moment, the wound on its abdomen was dripping yellow liquid, containing some thumb-sized spherical objects. "Could these be its eggs?"

Even so, Zhou Haoyu did not feel the slightest bit of guilt.

Monsters kill people, and people kill monsters. If you have any sympathy for monsters, then you have a complete mental problem.

"That strange smell Mu Nujiao mentioned must be this. The strange thing is why did this demon spare the lives of those two female students?"

While Zhou Haoyu was thinking, he used lightning to kill the eggs on the ground.

After thoroughly dealing with the problem, Zhou Haoyu went to the corridor to check the situation and found a 20-centimeter gap in the corner below the corridor.

It is obvious that the red-shelled cockroach lives in here, no wonder the people in the cafeteria didn't notice it.

Those two elite hunters were probably ambushed as well.

The corpse of the red-armored cockroach was so smelly that Zhou Haoyu didn't know where to throw it away. He could only use his telekinesis to move the corpse of the red-armored cockroach outside the cafeteria.

"It's actually a red-armored cockroach. Its defense is extremely strong even among the general-level warriors. How did you manage to kill it?"

Lingling was indeed a master hunter. After just a short observation, she discovered that the corpse was a red-armored cockroach.

"This is not important. The question is why it didn't kill those two female students?" Zhou Haoyu asked, changing the subject.

Zhou Haoyu currently does not want to expose his mental power, as it is his way of saving his life by killing enemies above his level.

"This red-armored cockroach is in the egg-laying period." Lingling said seriously.

"What does this have to do with those two female students? Could it be that my maternal instinct is overflowing?" Zhou Haoyu said with a strange look on his face.

"Of course not. The Red-armored Cockroach's eggs are different from those of other demons. They require an extremely harsh environment, which is difficult to find. However, there is a place that can replace it."

Although Lingling didn't finish her words, her meaning was self-evident.

Zhou Haoyu's face changed slightly. No wonder the two female students hadn't woken up yet. It turned out that the 'source of poison' had been in their bodies all along!
When Zhou Haoyu thought of that scene, he couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.

"Then can they still be saved?" Zhou Haoyu paused for a moment, then looked at Lingling and asked.

"It was difficult originally, but now with the body of this red-armored cockroach, it should be curable."

Lingling didn't seem to feel uncomfortable at all, as if this kind of thing was just a small matter to her.

"That's good." Zhou Haoyu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Although I don't know how you killed this red-armored cockroach, I need to tell you that this red-armored cockroach is very popular among some summoners. If it is at the Warlord level, it can be sold at a very high price."

Looking at the body that had been cut into two halves, a trace of pity flashed in Lingling's eyes.

Fortunately, the task has been completed, and Zhou Haoyu's performance exceeded her expectations. Overall, it was pretty good.

Hearing this, Zhou Haoyu was completely dumbfounded, his face full of disbelief, "There are still people who like this kind of monster? Don't you think it's weird and ugly?"

"Ugly?" Lingling rolled her eyes at him and said unhappily, "This red-armored cockroach has enough defense to withstand most mid-level spells, and it can even fly. Selling it for 20 million is perfectly reasonable."

Zhou Haoyu was shocked. There really was a mage riding this thing!
When Zhou Haoyu thought of that scene, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
