Chapter 32 Team Mission!
squeak-
The spell effect has ended.
The rats panicked and ran out of the wooden building, plunging into the sewage lake and swimming away in terror.
Shen Mo lay limp on the bed, panting heavily.
The sweat that had just broken out from the excruciating pain had even soaked the bedding.
"I almost died."
After recovering from the shock, Shen Mo was filled with lingering fear.
He had just successfully cast the spell when he immediately suffered a backlash.
In a moment of desperation, Shen Mo instinctively used up all the remaining points of physical and mental enhancement to offset the backlash...
Why is this happening?
Shen Mo searched his memory for information related to spellcasting and quickly found the reason.
"Is your mental strength too weak?"
Looking at his 6 points in Spirit, Shen Mo seemed lost in thought.
Casting spells consumes not only magic power but also mental energy.
Given Shen Mo's original mental strength, he simply did not have the extra mental energy to support the release of the zombie movement technique.
Therefore, the release of the spell caused an imbalance in his mental energy, which led to the backlash of the magic.
Although he has now strengthened his mental attribute by 1 point, Shen Mo estimates that at full strength, he can only cast the Zombie Movement spell once at most...
"Where can I obtain more spiritual power?"
Shen Mo had a headache.
The only known first-order demon is the lesser demon.
There are only three types of second-tier demons: Fearful Demons, Primal Demons, and Spirit Demons.
Third-tier demons are diverse and come in a wide variety.
However, third-tier demons usually reside in the Abyss, and are rarely encountered outside of it...
If you only rely on hunting demons to gain mental enhancement points.
Shen Mo will likely have to wait until he becomes a Silver-rank Demon Hunter and enters the Abyss to hunt demons before he can gather enough enhancement points for his first spiritual sublimation...
"Perhaps we could try meditation!"
A sudden inspiration struck him, and Shen Mo got up to look for a meditation manual.
After rummaging around for a while, I finally found the meditation manual that my parents had used to prop up the corner of the table under the cupboard.
After a quick review, Shen Mo lay down on the bed and began to meditate...
"woke up?"
Shen Huiying picked up the meditation manual beside Shen Mo's pillow, flipped through it, and said:
"Did you have insomnia last night?"
Hearing her sister's question, she looked at the familiar ceiling.
Shen Mo rolled his eyes, looking utterly despondent.
Seeing this, Shen Huiying chuckled:
"You've been practicing with this booklet since you were ten and could read. You took it out again recently, and you're still not giving up?"
"This time I'm truly given up!"
Shen Mo sat up in bed.
To be fair, meditation is quite effective at helping people sleep.
He felt full of energy at that moment.
The fatigue from last night's magical backlash has completely dissipated...
He took out the leftover roast chicken from yesterday from the cupboard and handed it to Shen Huiying, whose eyes were shining.
Shen Mo looked at Shen Huiying, who was chewing and savoring the food with a satisfied expression, and a thought struck him:
"Quit your job at the leather factory."
"That won't do."
Shen Huiying decisively shook her head and said:
"I heard from Dad that you want to move us away from the shantytown."
But we'll have to wait until things are settled before we can talk about it.
Otherwise, those Bloodfang Gang members will cause trouble. ......
Upon hearing the name Bloodfang Gang, a cold glint flashed in Shen Mo's eyes.
The Blood Fang Gang is one of the larger gangs in the shantytown.
The Shen family was within his sphere of influence.
Shen Huiying did not go to work at the leather factory voluntarily.
Instead, the Blood Fang Gang required every household to send someone to "serve" there.
In addition, Shen Mo's family has to pay rent to the Blood Fang Gang every month.
Shen Mo's master was also nominally affiliated with the Bloodfang Gang...
"I'm still not strong enough..."
Watching Shen Huiying finish eating the roast chicken and wave as she went upstairs to rest.
Shen Mo felt a sense of pressure and urgency.
The Blood Fang Gang not only has hundreds of members, but also several cadres whose physiques have been elevated.
It is said that the gang leader Zhao Long has already undergone two ascensions, and Shen Mo is currently unable to contend with him...
I took a nutritional paste, ate it in a few bites, and told my family.
Shen Mo put on a hood and mask, and headed to the Demon Hunter Association early with his equipment.
He arrived at 7 o'clock.
There weren't many people from the Demon Hunter Association, and Shi Lan and the others weren't there either.
Shen Mo took off his hood and mask and then went to the lobby to check the tasks posted by the association.
"Hello?"
A voice came from behind him, and Shen Mo turned his head to see Wei Dongming.
Confirming he hadn't mistaken Shen Mo for someone else, Wei Dongming extended his hand and smiled:
"Nice to meet you. My name is Wei Dongming. I believe Shi Lan has already told you, right?"
"Silence."
Shen Mo reached out and shook hands with Wei Dongming, his gaze sweeping over Wei Dongming's back.
Two young men, slightly older than him, were curiously looking him over.
"These are my two apprentices."
Wei Dongming turned to the side and introduced:
"Zheng Hao, Li Zitao."
"Hello, senior!"
The two young men bowed and greeted him respectfully, which surprised Shen Mo.
He didn't expect that Wei Dongming's two apprentices seemed to respect him quite a bit.
Unbeknownst to Shen Mo, Zheng Hao and Li Zitao had also witnessed Shen Mo's battle with the six robbers from afar the day before yesterday afternoon.
Having witnessed Shen Mo's strength, how could the two dare to underestimate him...?
After chatting with Wei Dongming, Shen Mo learned that Shi Lan was going to attend a funeral that morning.
So we asked Wei Dongming to come to the Demon Hunter Association first to see if there were any suitable team missions.
"My idea is to start with some tasks that aren't too difficult and can help us develop teamwork."
Wei Dongming looked at Shen Mo and asked, "What do you think?"
Shen Mo nodded upon hearing this, indicating that he had no objection.
The two of them then began to look around in the hall.
They exchanged opinions throughout the process, but neither of them mentioned the Shark Tooth Vine.
It was almost eight o'clock when Shi Lan hurriedly arrived at the Demon Hunter Association.
I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry!
A very good friend.
I only found out he had an accident when I got home yesterday...
Shi Lan apologized to Shen Mo and Wei Dongming repeatedly.
Even though Shen Mo and Wei Dongming both said it was nothing.
Shi Lan still felt ashamed and said she would confiscate her share of the reward for today's task...
The three then began exchanging mission information and ultimately finalized three missions.
