Full-Time Magister: Summoning Eight Demons at the Start

He possesses the power of the Tiger Talisman, which allows him to maintain a stable presence even when different types of power enter his body. Other demons, on the other hand, will have their own demonic energy devour these different types of power if they absorb them, turning them into their own kind.

Dudu!

Just as Tang Yue was about to ask more questions, both of their phones rang at the same time.

"Hey?"

"..."

"absurd!!"

……

Magic Association Building.

Upon receiving the news, Lü Cheng and Tang Yue quickly arrived.

A few days ago, the appearance of the Black Serpent was accompanied by two disfigured corpses corroded by poison. Moreover, within just a few days, an unknown infectious disease appeared on the shores of West Lake.

Therefore, Zhu Meng, who came from the Magic Court to deal with this matter, reasonably linked the culprit of this plague to the Xuan Snake and was pressuring the Lingyin Tribunal to hand over the Xuan Snake.

"I didn't come from the Magic Court to discuss this with you! Hand over the Sky Serpent immediately! Stop covering for it!"

Inside the conference hall, Zhu Meng was throwing a tantrum, arguing with local Hangzhou councilors and leaders of the trial committee.

"Hey! Are you arguing again?" Lu Cheng's voice suddenly rang out, interrupting Zhu Meng's passionate exchange.

Hearing Lü Cheng's voice, Zhu Meng turned around. "Didn't I already say yesterday that there would be a meeting today? Why are you only arriving now?"

As an eyewitness to the appearance of the Sky Serpent, and having Lu Cheng control the riots it caused, his involvement greatly increased the credibility of the story.

“I forgot.” Lü Cheng shrugged.

"If you hadn't called me, I would have completely forgotten."

As he spoke, Lü Cheng walked to the only remaining empty seat at the large round table and sat down.

Upon seeing this, the judges in the conference room all looked surprised.

They thought this empty seat was reserved for some important person, but what... whose spoiled brat is this?

"You were involved in the Sky Serpent incident, so you have a responsibility to cooperate with this work!" Zhu Meng said in a deep voice.

Lu Cheng had recently captured the Black Vatican in the capital, and it was even a blue-robed deacon. Now, the reaction to this guy in the capital's Inquisition and the Magic Court was mostly positive, so he had no choice but to adopt a more conciliatory attitude.

"Yes, yes, I'll cooperate. As a respected honorary judge and honorary councilor, I just wiped out a hideout of the Black Vatican, and before I even had a chance to rest, I'm being bossed around by Councilor Zhu Meng, without even overtime pay. What a life I'm living..."

After venting his frustrations, Lü Cheng picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip.

Where were we in our conversation?

Seeing Lü Cheng's relaxed demeanor, Zhu Meng really wanted to challenge him, but remembering his previous crushing defeat at the Magic Palace, he held back.

I can't win the argument!

Chapter 82. Too Rebellious

82.

……

"If you think I orchestrated this whole thing, then you should resolve this panic. Go report the giant serpent that's causing such a stir to the Magic Court! You can just admit to the people right now that you're supporting such a giant serpent, and see how they react!" Zhu Meng said firmly.

"What evidence do you have to prove that the two corpses were killed by the Xuan Snake?" Tang Yue couldn't help but ask.

Zhu Meng glanced at Tang Yue, "Investigating cases is not my job. My duty is to eliminate hidden dangers. Now the Xuan Snake has openly appeared in the human living area and caused huge panic and riots. If Lü Cheng hadn't been there and controlled the scene in time, who knows how many casualties would have been caused!"

"We were lucky this time, but what about next time?"

"If the Xuan Snake suddenly goes berserk, how much destruction would such a colossal creature cause? How many casualties would it result in? Can you bear that responsibility?!"

"The black snake won't hurt anyone!" Tang Yue said angrily.

"It has lived here for thousands of years and has never had a problem!"

"And what about this time?" Zhu Meng asked.

"You were there at the time, do you know how much panic the Black Serpent caused? Do you know how many patients who were terrified by the Black Serpent are still lying in the hospital?"

"It..." Tang Yue was speechless for a moment.

The Black Serpent's actions this time were extremely unusual, something that had never happened before.

"Now, I'm only giving you two days. Either you hand over the Totem Serpent, or I'll take action myself!" Zhu Meng said firmly.

"You're utterly unreasonable!" the goatee-bearded old man, who had been unable to get a word in edgewise, roared.

"I am a councilor! I possess the highest executive authority granted by the Magic Court and the Pearl Magic Tower! I say it is! It is!" Zhu Meng was unwilling to waste any more words.

"Cough cough!"

Lu Cheng coughed twice and stood up. "I am also a councilor of the Magic Court. Does my word carry any weight here?"

Zhu Meng hesitated for a moment, "That depends on what you're saying."

“The totem snake is looking for me,” Lü Cheng said.

The conference room fell silent.

The crowd had varying expressions, and all eyes were focused on Lü Cheng.

Zhu Meng narrowed his eyes slightly. "Do you know what you're saying?"

"Don't try to be a hero. This is not something an honorary member of parliament like you can handle!"

“But that’s just how it is,” Lü Cheng shrugged.

“If you don’t believe me, I can call it over again now. Of course, this time, the responsibility is yours, since you’re the one who asked me to call it over.”

"Wait a minute!" Zhu Meng interrupted, his face darkening.

Lu Cheng's summoning talent was personally certified by Pang Lai!

The Mind System was personally certified by Feng Li!

Summoning and Mind skills are the perfect combination for Beast Taming talents!

Therefore, it's not impossible for Lü Cheng to summon the totem snake now!

……

Because Lü Cheng interrupted and implicated himself in the cause of the Xuan Snake's appearance, Zhu Meng was unable to make a decision for the time being, so the meeting regarding the handling of the Xuan Snake was temporarily suspended.

The people in the conference room gradually dispersed, and soon only Lü Cheng, Tang Zhong, Tang Yue, Hei Yu, and Luo Mian, the mastermind behind the plague, remained in the room.

“Acheng, you…” Tang Yue looked worried.

"Don't worry, it's a small problem," Lu Cheng said.

Even if this matter becomes a big deal, it won't affect me much.

"Not necessarily," Tang Zhong shook his head.

"The problem now is not only the turmoil and panic caused by the Black Serpent, but the most troublesome thing is the plague."

The problem with the Black Serpent can be delayed, but this plague cannot be delayed.

Zhu Meng is now convinced that the totem Xuan Snake caused all of this. Even if it wasn't, he will take this opportunity to completely eliminate this so-called security threat.

Although he didn't know how much trouble Lü Cheng was behind that could make Zhu Meng stop on this matter, he knew it wouldn't last long.

"Tang Yue, you should take the totem out and hide for a while, at least until it gets through its molting period," Tang Zhong said.

The totem snake is not venomous during its molting period, so this plague must have some other cause.

“Then I’ll take care of protecting Tang Yue and Totem,” Hei Yu said.

"No." Tang Zhong shook his head.

“The totem is very sensitive during its molting period. If a commander-level demon or a high-level human mage appears within a radius of twenty kilometers, it will arouse its hostility. Tang Yue is the only one whose strength exceeds the limit but is not regarded as an enemy by the totem…”

“I don’t know either,” Lü Cheng said.

Tang Zhong hesitated, then said, "This matter has a huge impact. If something goes wrong, you..."

Although he didn't know what kind of support Lü Cheng had that enabled this young man to obtain the titles of Honorary Chief Judge of the Tribunal and even Honorary Councilor of the Magic Court, if the plague was not handled properly, the impact on Lü Cheng would be enormous.

“I can’t just watch her cry, can I?” Lu Cheng said.

Originally, he planned to devour a monarch-level soul before entering the ancient capital, to have some buffer time, and it would be easier to devour the ancient king's soul later. However, the Xuan Snake was very important to Tang Yue.

Since the Black Serpent couldn't move, it could only wait and see what the Silver Sky Lord would do next.

“Acheng…” Tang Yue’s eyes reddened slightly.

"Alright, we're an old married couple, stop crying all the time," Lu Cheng said.

Tang Yue blushed. "Who...who's been married to you for so long?"

"So... newlyweds?"

"A wedding night is fine too."

"..."
