Full-Time Magister: A Unique Divine Gift, A Fusion of Magical Systems!

A hint of surprise flashed in Shao Peiyu's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure. Although Lingling was young, she was indeed exceptional to become a Hunter Master.

For example, his terrifying intelligence, his ability to gather intelligence, his extensive knowledge of demons, and his ability to coordinate and command.

But he was still prepared to stick to his principles: "So what if you're a Hunter Master? Without awakened magic, you can't use magic for protection. The demons outside the Anjie are all dealt with using magic. It's too dangerous for you to run out."

"The club's senior members must be mages who have awakened magic; this is the bottom line and cannot be crossed."

Seeing his refusal, Lingling became anxious, took a step forward, and pleaded, "I can help you deal with the demons outside the An Realm. I'm very experienced! I know the characteristics and weaknesses of most demons like the back of my hand!"

Looking at the determination and resolve in her eyes, Shao Peiyu felt a slight stirring in his heart.

The Extreme Club's mission is to push the limits, and isn't that exactly what Lingling is pursuing? But her identity and strength also make him have to be cautious.

"I understand your pursuit." Shao Peiyu pondered for a moment before speaking slowly.

"You can enjoy the benefits of a junior member, but a senior member is indeed not eligible. However, I can grant you special privileges—by appointing you as the club's 'special advisor,' to participate in guiding, intelligence gathering, and action planning for activities outside the security perimeter. In that case, you can enjoy the benefits of a senior member."

Lingling's eyes lit up: "Really?"

"Really." Shao Peiyu nodded. "But the premise is that you must ensure your own safety and not act on your own. Moreover, before you take up the post, you must pass an assessment to prove that you are capable enough to serve as this consultant."

"Great!" Lingling waved her little hand happily, clearly very confident in her abilities: "Whatever the assessment, just tell me!"

Shao Peiyu smiled helplessly: "I own a small mine, and I'm planning to organize a cleanup operation with the club's senior members soon. The location is in Rihui Mountain in northern Shanghai."

"Your task is to investigate the terrain, the types of monsters that appear, their weaknesses, and to devise a plan for how to carry out the cleanup operation. Once the mission is successfully completed, you will officially become a special consultant of my club, enjoying the benefits of a senior member, but without a salary."

Salary is irrelevant to Lingling; she earns far more money than her salary through her status as a Hunter Master.

What she cared about was that she finally had a place where she could showcase her talents and seek excitement, and Shao Peiyu did not look down on her because of her young age, unlike her older sister Leng Qing who always tried to get her into school.

At this moment, Lingling found Shao Peiyu increasingly pleasing to the eye, and a faint smile couldn't help but appear on her lips: "Don't worry! I guarantee I'll complete the mission!"

......

Sunrise Mountain, a wild and untamed place in the northern part of Shanghai.

The continuous mountain range is covered by dense primeval forests, filled with miasma and eerie winds. Occasionally, a few mournful roars of beasts can be heard, indicating that this place is far more dangerous than the peaceful realm.

At dawn, a group of young mages gathered at the foot of the mountain, all of them full of energy and high spirits; they were senior members of the Extreme Club.

Shao Peiyu stood at the front of the group, dressed in a black outfit, with an upright posture.

Beside him, Lingling carried a small demon hunter backpack and held a hand-drawn topographical map in her hand. Her expression was calm, unlike that of a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl.

Dongfang Lie, Dongfang Linlin, Mu Nujiao, and Zhuang Lifeng were all present, but Bai Hongfei was the only one absent—it is said that his sister Bai Tingting had confined him to the house to reflect on the "Yalongjian Horror Incident" and did not allow him to go out at all.

Several new faces joined the group, one of whom was Dongfang Ming, a mid-level fire mage and a member of the Dongfang family. He was specially sent by Dongfang Mo to assist in clearing out the mine.

The other few were young masters from relatively unknown families, all drawn by this rare opportunity for real combat.

If you're looking for thrills, you can just go anywhere outside the safe zone; why would you need to join any club?

But genuine thrill-seeking is different from pure suicide. As the club owner, Shao Peiyu is definitely obligated to ensure the safety of the members.

Before going to each place, the club staff would conduct a detailed investigation to ensure that the demons appearing there were ones they could handle. This was also why Shao Peiyu chose Lingling; her professionalism far surpassed that of the club's ordinary staff.

"Brother Yu, is this little girl really reliable?" Dongfang Lie leaned closer to Shao Peiyu and whispered, his eyes full of doubt. "She looks even younger than Bai Hongfei, can she really handle the demons of Rihui Mountain? Or is she just someone you picked to make up the numbers?"

Not only Dongfang Lie, but most of the other team members also showed doubt.

It's hard to believe that a little girl who hasn't awakened magic can be called a master hunter.

Lingling seemed oblivious to the whispers around her. She simply unfolded the map, pointed to the markings on it with a small twig, and spoke in a clear and articulate voice:

"The Rihui Mountain mine is located in the western valley. Within a radius of three miles, it is mainly inhabited by three types of demons: the Black-striped Stone Demon, the Clawed Shadow Cat, and the Poisonous Mist Moth."

She paused for a moment, then continued, "The Black-striped Stone Goblin is thick-skinned and afraid of fire and light. Its weakness is in the crevices in its abdomen. The Clawed Shadow Cat is extremely fast and adept at ambushes. It is afraid of strong light and being bound by large areas of plants. The Poison Mist Moth lives in swarms. Its wing powder is poisonous and can cause dizziness if inhaled. It needs to be dispersed with wind or burned with fire."

"In terms of terrain, the valley entrance is narrow, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack. The interior is open but has many caves, which are suitable for Shadow Cats to ambush. My plan is: each of us will divide the work and advance slowly. The wind mage will clear the way and dispel the poisonous fog; the fire and light mages will focus on attacking the stone golems; and the plant and earth mages will be responsible for sealing off the caves and intercepting the Shadow Cats. I will coordinate from the center to ensure that each team member can provide timely support."

His words were logically sound and well-organized, demonstrating a thorough understanding of the demons' habits, the terrain's advantages and disadvantages, and even a clear outline of his countermeasures.

Dongfang Lie, who had initially looked down on him, suddenly widened his eyes and opened his mouth into an "O" shape.

Zhuang Lifeng, Dongfang Linlin, and the others also looked surprised, and their gazes toward Lingling completely changed.

This isn't just a little girl; she's practically a walking encyclopedia of demons!

"Wow..." Dongfang Lie swallowed hard, moved closer to Shao Peiyu, and his tone completely changed, full of surprise, "Brother Yu! Where did you find this amazing little loli? She's incredible! She knows more about demons and terrain than we mages who cultivate every day!"

Looking at Lingling's calm and directing manner, Shao Peiyu smiled slightly: "She offered herself up and insisted on becoming the club's special consultant."

Upon hearing this, everyone was even more amazed, exclaiming that they had struck gold.

"Operation begins!" Shao Peiyu gave the order, and the team, following Lingling's plan, divided their tasks and entered the mountain in an orderly manner.
