While waiting for the ambulance, Zhou Sining and Mo Fan tried to chase after the scaly mother demon again.

But with little success, they only managed to retrieve the shed human skin and give it to Lingling.

"Lingling, what are you collecting these pelts for?"

"Collect its blood data and then input it into a specially made electronic map of Shanghai, and we can find its hiding place," Lingling said.

"That's amazing!" Mo Fan's eyes lit up.

This Qingtian Hunting Site truly lives up to its five-star rating; their efficiency is amazing!

Mu Nujiao also breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed the matter would be resolved soon.

She turned to look at Zhou Sining beside her, only to see that he looked serious and had not relaxed because of Lingling's words.

She thought Zhou Sining was worried that the escaped demon would continue to harm the people, so she reassured her, "That female demon was burned by the flames, so she shouldn't be able to hurt anyone for a while."

"Hmm." Zhou Sining nodded, but her expression remained unchanged.

Mu Nujiao wanted to ask more questions, but then the ambulance arrived.

The four had no choice but to put aside the matter of the female demon for the time being and take the unconscious, naked man and child to the hospital.

After a series of tests, the doctor found that the man had only lost too much blood and was otherwise fine.

After confirming that the other party would not shed its skin and turn into a demon again, they were no longer worried and returned the child to the man.

Lingling went back to continue investigating the female demon's background, and at the same time ended the commission, transferring half of the 30 yuan commission to Mo Fanka.

Mo Fan was happy to receive the money and obediently returned to school to wait for the notification.

Seeing that the matter was over, Mu Nujiao figured that the rest would be the city's demon-hunting team's job, so she stopped joining in the fun.

Zhou Sining, however, kept frowning, looking quite troubled.

As the two walked side by side along the campus path, Mu Nujiao couldn't help but ask, "Are you still thinking about that molting banshee?"

"Yes, but I'm not worried about whether the banshee will hurt people. I'm just thinking about some things." Zhou Sining nodded, not denying it.

"What's the problem?"

Zhou Sining slowly voiced his doubts: "Since the Scaled Mother Demon can parasitize humans, is this parasitism contagious? Like some viruses, if one person is infected, and it's not stopped in time, those around them will soon be infected as well."

As a man who had read the original work, he naturally knew that the parasitic infection of the Scaled Mother Demon was contagious; otherwise, there wouldn't have been the subsequent stadium incident.

He just couldn't remember the details, how it spread so widely and so quickly to so many female students.

It's important to know that the gymnasium incident in the original story took place inside Pearl Academy. Even if most of the female students were inexperienced and unprepared magicians, there were still thousands of magicians involved.

How did such a large-scale parasitism occur so secretly?

Or is it really just random random writing?

Moreover, with so many thousands of people, it's impossible to wait until they all transform into demons before killing them; there must be other methods.

But he couldn't remember.

No, I have to ask Lingling and take precautions early.

Zhou Sining was not the kind of person who liked to sit idly by and wait for death.

"It spreads like a virus..."

Mu Nujiao, who was standing to the side, was chewing on his words. Her bright and calm eyes slowly froze. Suddenly realizing something, a trace of fear appeared deep in her pupils!

……

……

Qingtian Hunting Grounds.

Lingling sat on the sofa next to the bar, her phone flying across the keyboard, seemingly searching for information.

"Lingling!"

Zhou Sining suddenly rushed in, pulling Mu Nujiao along, but the girl only paused for a moment before calmly looking up.

"What? You want to make a request?"

"A commission, huh? How can this little brat be so greedy? Tell me, is that demon a parasitic demon?" Zhou Sining couldn't help but complain.

Caught off guard by what she'd just said, Lingling's proud and haughty face fell, and she glared angrily at Zhou Sining.

"Lingling, parasitic demons have a characteristic of being able to lie dormant. Lying dormant means there is a possibility of infection, do you understand?" Mu Nujiao explained.

As a student of Mingzhu Academy, Mu Nujiao's theoretical knowledge was not bad.

Upon hearing this, Lingling, who was about to get angry, was immediately stunned.

The intelligent girl could understand Mu Nujiao's words and immediately realized the seriousness of the matter.

"Wait, let me make a call." She took out her phone and quickly told the other party what the molting demon and Mu Nujiao had said.

"She asked, 'Does that demon have the habit of drinking blood?'" Lingling asked.

But last night, when the molting demon first appeared, it was severely injured by Mo Fan. Where would it have had time to kill and suck blood?

"I told you so! I read a book that said most parasitic demons have a habit of sucking blood. It's better to believe it than not," Zhou Sining said confidently.

Because of his involvement, Mo Fan did not witness the scene of the girl being bled while upside down by the scaly mother demon.

He was afraid that this matter would affect Lingling's judgment, so he stopped hiding it.

Even with Lingling's intelligence and connections, she should be able to find out the truth eventually, but if possible, let's try to avoid the stadium incident.

Lingling processed Zhou Sining's words and concluded that the molting demon must have a habit of sucking blood.

A few seconds later, Lingling's expression changed, and her eyes revealed a hint of panic and helplessness!

Seeing this, Zhou Sining and Mu Nujiao exchanged a glance, already knowing the outcome of the matter.

It is a fact that the Scaled Mother Demon escaped, so the spread of the virus was inevitable.

"The most urgent task now is to input its biological information into the special map you mentioned, find it as soon as possible, and stop the damage in time," Zhou Sining said.

"Okay, but information analysis takes time; it can't be done in just a few hours. I'll ask the Hunter Alliance to expedite it," Lingling agreed.

"Continue to investigate this female demon's information. After shedding her skin, this demon's entire body is covered in blue scales. Search for keywords like 'scales' and 'parasite,' and try to find out as much as possible. Also, consider whether this demon might prefer the blood of a mage," Zhou Sining added.

The fact that the specially made map is not ready means that it is impossible to locate Mingzhu Academy.

Zhou Sining didn't dare to draw any conclusions, so he could only give Lingling a heads-up.

If the demon's characteristics include a preference for magicians' blood, then the scope can be narrowed down.

Furthermore, since this scaly demon mother appeared in a high-end apartment near the university town, several nearby schools could be notified to be on high alert.

This will at least avoid the situation in the original story where the school and the Hunter Alliance only found out about the situation after it had already happened.

"Okay, I'll do it."

Lingling knew the seriousness of the matter and agreed to everything.

"As for Mo Fan... never mind, I'll just talk to him and remind him. But the commission is over, this is the city's monster-hunting team's job."

After thinking about it, Zhou Sining decided to tell Mo Fan about it.

Although his meddling might prevent Mo Fan from having any role to play.

But it's alright, he has a system, so he has no shortage of resources. At worst, he can just compensate.
