Chapter 100

Pulp. But the next moment, without any resistance left, the wanted criminal's body disintegrated layer by layer, turning into a pool of colorful flesh and blood. Bai Lu looked at the rotten meat on the ground with no fluctuation in his heart. She had never recited a mantra. Chapter 102 Flash of Inspiration Li Wen lifted Witch State and returned to the ground. It seems that her minister is not incapable of fighting. At least the key trait "Flash of Inspiration" in her skill set has been possessed by this time. Flash of Inspiration is what Bai Lu relies on to cast magic instantly. This trait can reduce the cast time of the holder's next spell below level three by 100%. Each use requires a cooldown of twice the original casting time. During the cooldown period, no incantations can be chanted. Just relying on this characteristic alone, before Stage Three, Bai Lu could hardly meet any comparable opponents at the same level. "But the spells you currently master are not enough to make this trait truly powerful." Li Wen walked towards Bai Lu, who looked at her warily. "You are Bai Lu, that's right." Bai Lu was thinking about whether the person in front of him was an NPC or a player. When he heard these words, he was immediately frightened: "You... you are?" "I am Mephisto." Li Wen spoke calmly, "You can regard me as a Secret Path transcendent, Keeper of Secrets who knows most of the secrets in the world." Secret Path? Is there such a thing? Bai Lu realized that he still knew too little about this game, and why would someone be named "Mephisto"? Is this a bad taste of the production team, or is this person actually a mysterious player. "Your teacher, Miranda Ms. Yatlin is no longer in Leicester. She went to the outer continent for promotion. She probably won't come back soon." Even if you know her game name, how come you even know such a thing? Bai Lu's brain is a little overloaded, but for the time being, he believes in the settings of Secret Path and Keeper of Secrets. "Why are you telling me this?" Bai Lu felt that she should have triggered the relevant side plot, probably because of her status as Miranda's apprentice. Sure enough, this is still a game after all, and there are no plot developments that are too malicious for players - such as cyber fraud. "I have communicated with your teacher... to be precise, your teacher's friend, Archmage Marymana of Circle of White Birds Society." Li Wen said selectively, "She is here now City, if you go to her, then she will most likely take you back to Bird Society and teach you magic on behalf of Miranda. "Bai Lu hesitated. This didn't sound false, and it seemed very exciting. But the more this happened, the more uneasy Bai Lu felt. There is no unreasonable favor in the world, especially since this is an online game that should be roughly fair, with equal pay and rewards. "What if I don't go?" she asked after hesitating for a while. Li Wen under the cloak smiled slightly, "That's even better, I have some small things that I need you to complete." Hearing this, Bai Lu breathed a sigh of relief. She knew that the NPC in front of her who didn't look like a decent person must be hiding a trap behind her words. If she asked the other party to take her to Marymana without thinking, she might be trapped in what kind of way. Little did he know that his psychological state had already been thoroughly explored. After joining Strategy Group in his previous life, when Li Wen inquired from members of the logistics team about what kind of person his immediate boss was, he got a very uniform answer - a nerd, a fear of society, easy to guess, suitable for taking the blame, and easily fooled. Facts have proved that this is not a slander. "I'm just an ordinary magic apprentice. If something is too difficult..." Bai Lu pondered over the words, trying to use words to negotiate for greater benefits. But how could Li Wen let the former minister get his wish? He said casually, "If you don't want to, then I'd better find someone else..." After saying that, Li Wen turned around and left without lingering. Eh? Why did you just leave? What about the promised pull? "Wait, wait!" Bai Lu immediately panicked, "I can do it, don't leave, as long as it's what I can do, I'm willing to do anything!" The power of a magician comes from the accumulation of knowledge. Without the teaching and guidance of a high-level magician, there is even no chance of promotion. If you miss this opportunity, then Bai Lu may have no choice but to become Wild Mage. Li Wen stopped as expected. "If you are unwilling, there is no need to do so. I will tell you what I need to tell you about Marymana's whereabouts." In response to these words, Bai Lu could only scratch his cheek in embarrassment. This guy is a bit too evil, and I don't know how many of his words are true. "But since you insist..." Li Wen paused and looked at the rotten meat on the ground. "He should have a wolf-shaped bone on his body. Take it with you." Although it was a bit disgusting, Bai Lu obediently used Telekinetic Touch to dig through the rotten meat and found something that matched the description. Seeing this, Li Wen nodded: "Then let's go." "Where to go?" Although Bai Lu looked confused, he still followed. "Wolf Pack Club." Li Wen said. *Wolf Pack Club is far away from the bustling city center, but not too close to Old Town. It is in a very suitable and neutral position between the two, appearing restrained and ambitious. From the outside, this is an ordinary but luxurious club. The entire building is made of granite and is as tall as a church in the city. Counting the underground part, the internal space is several times larger than an ordinary church. There is a tall statue of a lone wolf standing at the entrance of the club, with a row of uniformly dressed guards standing under it. Even if it's a rainy night... or maybe it's just because it's night, there are still people coming and going in the club, ranging from well-dressed and elegant people to dirty beggars. Wolf Pack Club is the most luxurious club and hotel in Leicester City, as well as the largest underground casino and contraband exchange. Bai Lu hesitated again and again, but still stepped forward. "Please show proof." The stern-faced guard stopped her as expected, "Or pay an admission fee of 1 shilling." Even the admission fee is 1 shilling, which is too expensive. Bai Lu handed over the money in pain, wondering whether Li Wen would reimburse the expense. In the end, he was pessimistic and thought that the possibility was not very high. After paying the admission fee, no one stopped Bai Lu from entering the club. She followed the crowd and walked in, but as soon as she stepped into the door, she was shocked by the scene inside. She had already heard about Wolf Pack Club, but had never been here to find out. The interior of the club was much larger than Bai Lu had imagined. Underfoot was a smooth, reflective marble floor with neat lines, and a huge, overly bright chandelier filled with candles hung overhead. If this lamp fell down, it would probably kill many people. Bai Lu thought in a nonsensical way. "Don't be surprised. Go to the front desk and ask how to get into the underground casino." Li Wen's voice suddenly sounded, but no one around him responded. This is natural, because now only Bai Lu can hear what she said. "Mind Talk", as a Tier 1 Magic, allows two people to communicate within a certain distance and within a certain period of time that only each other can hear. Bai Lu did not waste valuable experience on this magic, but its spell scrolls are usually sold at Black Market and are not difficult to obtain. Chapter 103 Underground Casino Bai Lu followed Li Wen's instructions and walked to the front desk. In fact, she was also very curious, and she obviously only used one Mind Talk method.
