Full-Time Magister: A Unique Divine Gift, A Fusion of Magical Systems!
Chapter 24 The Scaled Demons Attack!
In the dark stairwell, the ambiguous atmosphere was instantly dispelled by the strong smell of blood.
The fishy smell was thick and pungent, unlike the smell of human blood, mixed with a hint of putridity, making one's stomach churn.
Shao Peiyu's expression suddenly froze, and he tightened his grip on Mu Nujiao's hand.
Their keen intuition as monks told them that this was no time for sentimentality; danger was quietly approaching.
"Something's not right, there's something up there." He lowered his voice, his tone grave.
Mu Nujiao also instantly composed herself. As a plant-type mage, her perception of life force far surpassed that of ordinary people. She clearly sensed that the area above the corridor was deathly silent, devoid of any living presence, with only a strong sense of malice and blood permeating the air.
"Be careful." Shao Peiyu shielded her behind him and took the lead in walking uphill. His steps were light but firm.
Mu Nujiao followed closely behind, her fingertips quietly gathering green stars, the vines already poised to burst forth in her palm.
With each step you climb, the stench of blood grows stronger.
Shao Peiyu's brows furrowed more and more, and he thought to himself: Could it be that the Scaled Demon Mother from the original story has finally found this place?
He originally thought that since Lingling had joined his Extreme Club and was no longer teaming up with Mo Fan to hunt demons, this part of the story should be rewritten.
But now it seems that some things were destined from the beginning. Even without Mo Fan and Lingling, the Scaled Demon Mother's conspiracy was still quietly underway.
The two silently arrived at the third floor, and the source of the bloody smell led directly to the door of a tightly closed cubicle at the end.
The heavy wooden door was tightly closed, but it couldn't stop the constant stench of blood seeping out from inside; a few drops of dark red blood even condensed under the door cracks.
"Is this... the dressing room behind the stage?" Mu Nujiao whispered.
Upon reaching the door, the two exchanged a glance, understanding each other perfectly. Golden stars quietly appeared around Shao Peiyu, and the Holy Light Battle Armor was already taking shape on his body. A light shield and a light sword quickly appeared in his hand, ready to launch an attack at any moment.
Mu Nujiao twitched her fingertips slightly, and several slender yet resilient vines quietly spread from the ground, gently wrapping around the doorknob, and then she pulled it sharply.
"Squeak—"
The door slowly opened, and the scene inside the dressing room instantly came into view, causing their pupils to shrink and their hearts to sink.
The cramped dressing room was a complete mess! Cosmetics were scattered all over the floor, the mirror was shattered, and the most shocking sight was a girl in a white performance costume hanging upside down on the wall. Her wrist had been slashed open by a sharp object, leaving a deep gash that exposed bone. Bright red blood was dripping from her fingertips, pooling on the floor in a glaring pool of blood.
Shao Peiyu and Mu Nujiao recognized that pale yet familiar face at a glance—it was Bai Hongfei's older sister, Bai Tingting!
Beneath the pool of blood, a ferocious monster covered in bluish-yellow scales was lurking.
Its body was hunched over, its head was huge, and its mouth, filled with fangs, was wide open, precisely catching the blood dripping from Bai Tingting's wrist, greedily swallowing it with a "sizzling" sound that sent chills down one's spine.
"asshole!"
Shao Peiyu gritted his teeth and roared, unable to contain himself any longer. He flashed forward like a golden lightning bolt, slamming the holy light shield he had conjured into his hand down on the head of the cyan-yellow banshee!
"Bang!"
With a loud crash, the blue-yellow banshee was struck so hard that her head tilted to the side, and she staggered back a few steps, letting out a shrill scream.
Shao Peiyu gave it no chance to react. He flipped his wrist, the lightsaber condensed, and golden light surged as he slashed horizontally with the sword!
"Sizzle—"
The sharp lightsaber sliced through the body of the cyan-yellow banshee, instantly tearing a huge golden rift in its flesh. Scales shattered, and green demonic blood gushed out.
Under their shocked gazes, the cyan-yellow banshee fell straight to the ground. The cyan-yellow scales covering her body melted and peeled off like melting wax, finally revealing a bare, white body covered in viscous liquid—it turned out to be a female student of similar age to them!
Mu Nujiao froze instantly, covering her mouth in disbelief: "How could this be? What kind of demon is this? Why... why is it a student from the academy transformed?"
Shao Peiyu tore a complete formal dress off a nearby clothes rack and threw it on the unconscious female student to cover her body. He explained in a heavy tone, "This is not an ordinary demon; it is an infected Scaled Demon."
"Their parasitic source is blood. They inject their own demonic blood into a human body, then hang the person upside down to drain their original blood, thus completing the parasitism. As long as the surface parasitic scales are killed, the human body inside can still be saved, but due to excessive blood loss, immediate treatment is required."
While quickly channeling plant-based magic to gently lower Bai Tingting from her upside-down position, Mu Nujiao anxiously asked, "How can we completely resolve this infection? We can't let any more people suffer!"
"We must find the Scaled Demon Mother and kill her completely." Shao Peiyu's eyes were icy. "She is the source of all the infection. As long as she lives, she will continue to create new infected beings."
He sighed inwardly, never expecting that even with the plot changed, this still happened.
It's likely that the Qingtian Hunting Grounds still received the commission from the victimized couple. Even without Mo Fan and Lingling, the hunting grounds would have sent other hunters.
However, the Scaled Demon Mother was too cunning and must have been defeated and fled while dealing with the hunter. The concert in the stadium, which gathered a large number of young girls, became the perfect place for it to parasitize.
Therefore, even though the process changed, the final result still followed the original plot.
Mu Nujiao didn't ask any more questions and immediately began to take care of the unconscious female student, carefully wiping her body and changing her into a clean dress.
Shao Peiyu then walked to the female student's side and activated the holy magic - Holy Healing.
A gentle golden light enveloped the girl, and her wounds healed at a visible speed, her pale face gradually regaining some color. At the same time, Shao Peiyu infused her with a wisp of pure life force, stabilizing her life force.
"He should be fine now. He should wake up soon after resting for a while." Shao Peiyu breathed a sigh of relief.
Just then, a strange rustling sound suddenly came from behind.
Shao Peiyu and Mu Nujiao turned around abruptly and saw that Bai Tingting, who had just been put down and was breathing weakly, was now convulsing violently!
A layer of bluish-yellow scales spread visibly across her skin, the scales hard and cold, quickly covering her neck, arms, and body...
Her pupils gradually became cloudy, she let out an inhuman growl, and her aura became violent and evil—she was about to completely transform into the Blue-Yellow Demoness!
