Bai Yang

Chapter 16 Bai Yang

The atmosphere inside the demon-hunting team's vehicle was tense, with everyone worried about when the demon wolf would start its rampage.

"I'll take this time to explain Yutian's responsibilities to him." Xu Dahuang was clear-headed and did not panic despite the tense situation.

"The main characteristic of plant-based magic is its ability to restrict movement. Your primary responsibility is to work with Cai Tang to control that demon, buying my fire magic time to deliver a fatal blow!"

"Captain, will military personnel also be involved in this operation?" Li Wenjie asked.

"The military's responsibility is to protect against demons outside the city, while the main task inside the city is left to our city's demon-hunting team. However, this is a mistake on the part of the military, and they will definitely get involved as well." Xu Dahuang paused, then continued, "Actually, finding the trail of that one-eyed demon wolf is already half the battle won. What's scary isn't a direct confrontation, but knowing that it's nearby, yet not knowing exactly where it's lurking and ready to strike."

The one-eyed wolf is among the top-tier servant-level demons, possessing both strength and speed, making it a demonic presence for novice mages.

"This is it, get off!"

Xu Dahuang parked the vehicle in a secluded alley and called out to everyone.

"We have military personnel here to coordinate with us and arrange relevant search tasks."

As soon as he finished speaking, a dark blue figure flashed past, and a handsome and robust wolf shadow appeared in front of him.

"Dark Wolf Beast!"

Ling Tianyu's tense muscles relaxed, and he thought it was a sudden attack by the one-eyed demon wolf!

Another figure sat atop the muscular wolf-shaped structure, his green military overcoat revealing his identity.

"Officer Baiyang, I didn't expect the military to send you!" Xu Dahuang felt relieved. With the help of the Ghost Wolf Beast, this was a sure thing!

This guy's fighting power is several levels stronger than that of an adult demon!

Baiyang?

Ling Tianyu's expression was solemn as he pondered the original plot.

I remember this guy was exceptionally talented, awakening summoning magic at the very beginning, but he was hampered by his family's circumstances, making it difficult for him to capture powerful summoned beasts. He remained mediocre and later joined the Black Church, becoming their lackey. During his school training, he added a "Frenzy Spring" to a mountain spring, causing his Spectral Wolves to go berserk and nearly wiping out the entire group of trainees. If it weren't for Zhang Xiaohou, Mu Bai, and others remaining calm under pressure, using magic to slow them down, and Mo Fan skillfully using both magic and his own magic to take advantage of the cave's terrain and use stalactites to kill the Spectral Wolves, they would have ultimately protected all the trainees.

After the crisis in Bo City, someone disguised military orders attempted to seize the Sacred Spring, but Mo Fan saw through their true intentions and they were ultimately killed by Mu Bai's demon-slaying artifact.

Ling Tianyu hadn't originally connected this matter with the Black Vatican, but now it seems there's more to it than meets the eye.

"I'll take care of this guy if I get the chance!" Ling Tianyu didn't want to create any future problems for himself, but he had to be careful not to attract the attention of the Black Vatican. With his current strength, he was no match for the Black Vatican; crushing him would be as easy as stepping on an ant.

Bai Yang wore a warm smile, but Ling Tianyu felt that it concealed the fangs of a venomous snake, poised to strike a fatal blow.

"Who is this young man...?" Bai Yang's gaze shifted to Ling Tianyu, a hint of curiosity on his face.

"He's our newest member, a plant-based mage from out of town!" Xu Dahuang introduced.

"Oh?" Bai Yang's eyes showed slight surprise. A beginner-level awakened white magic, what a genius! Not bad, not bad, I can boost my performance this year! Will the blue-robed lord reward me with some resources for killing a plant-type genius?

Others might not have noticed, but Ling Tianyu keenly sensed that this guy was up to no good.

"Looks like this guy's got his eye on me!" Ling Tianyu thought with a cold smile. "Let's see who kills whom!"

…………

As is well known, wolf demons have an exceptional sense of smell, and the Ghost Wolf Beast is no exception.

Soon, Bai Yang led the demon-hunting team to the outside of a dilapidated factory.

"This used to be a meat processing plant, but it went bankrupt three years ago due to a broken capital chain," Xiao Ke explained to everyone, referring to the map in her hand.

"I guess the lingering smell of rotten meat here is attracting demons," Ling Tianyu explained, faintly smelling the musty odor in the air.

"This is good news. If it had wandered into the city center, it would have been troublesome, and our magic might have accidentally harmed ordinary people. A remote abandoned factory like this is the perfect graveyard for the one-eyed demon wolf!" Xu Dahuang rubbed his hands together impatiently, ready to go.

This whole affair originated with the military, and the demon-hunting team came to help. They had promised beforehand that the military personnel wouldn't take a single penny of the spoils from the demon hunt, and would even receive a generous commission. Judging by the current progress, that money is practically already theirs.

That said, if it weren't for the large number of fleeing one-eyed demon wolves and the military's manpower shortage, they would never have sought help from the Hunter Alliance.

"Are you ready?" Bai Yang led the Ghost Wolf Beast to the heavy iron gate. The gate had been in disrepair for many years and was covered with a thick layer of rust.

A faint chewing sound came from behind the door, making one's hair stand on end.

"No problem!" The members of the demon-hunting team exchanged glances, nodded, and said. As a newcomer to the demon-hunting team, Ling Tianyu was naturally a key target for protection, and his position was the furthest back compared to the others.

Li Wenjie, as the team's scout, took the lead in drawing the demons' firepower, while Cai Tang and Xu Dahuang followed closely behind, providing firepower output. Fei Shi and Xiao Ke were positioned on the flanks to provide support for their teammates and defend against the attacks of the demon wolves.
