Lockdown and Isolation!

After settling the two female students in the infirmary, the two of them prepared to rescue the other girls suffering from the parasitic demons' poison.

"Um, may I know what your names are?" the Healing Element girl asked.

Mo Fan opened his mouth, but for a moment, he didn't know what to say.

He couldn't just tell her his real name. With his reputation these days, she'd probably hate him the second he said it.

"Just call me Fan Mo," Mo Fan said, giving her his Hunter alias.

"Just call me 'I'd Bet My Life,'" Lan Yu said offhandedly.

The girl clearly didn't believe him, but now wasn't the time to press them for details.

She'd find out what she needed to know eventually.

"Brat, give me their locations."

"Fifty meters to the right, a hundred meters straight ahead... Oh god, they're moving in force! They're shedding their skins and transforming into demons in droves!" Lingling's voice turned grave.

"Damn it, just how many people have been infected?"

"Fortunately, it's vacation right now, so most people have left campus. Otherwise, things would be even worse," Lan Yu said.

"Fan Mo, three of them are heading your way."

"Perfect!" Mo Fan said as he ran toward the indoor basketball court. "I remember there's an indoor court up ahead. We can team up with the others and catch them all in one net!"

"Hey, don't go to the indoor court! It's full of red dots!"

Lan Yu heard her clearly, but Mo Fan was already running at full speed. The wind roared in his ears, and he didn't catch Lingling's final words.

"Is this guy Bolt? He's running faster than me!" Lan Yu remarked.

"Annoying guy, stop wasting time and go warn Fan Mo!" Lingling's anxious voice came through the earpiece.

"No rush. Let me take care of these three demonesses first."

"Momo, time to get to work!"

There was one more thing: the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger had become Lan Yu's Summoned Beast, so he'd given it a name.

It was black all over, so he'd named it Momo.

Moonlight-colored stars formed a star path. A slash of moonlight cut through the air, revealing a Summoning Gate.

A moment later, a small black figure shot out of the Summoning Gate.

Momo was small for now, but these three Servant Level Cyan-Yellow Demonesses were no match for its strength.

Momo struck each of them once, and the three Cyan-Yellow Demonesses were left gravely injured by its three slaps.

Then Lan Yu stepped in and cast Light Radiance three times, easily finishing off the three Cyan-Yellow Demonesses.

"Annoying guy, who's Momo?" Lingling asked.

Lan Yu didn't answer. He just ran toward the indoor basketball court.

Outside the gymnasium, Lingling clicked her tongue. "Fine. Keep your secrets."

Meanwhile, Mo Fan had already reached the indoor basketball court.

He looked delighted and immediately called out, "Hey, students! Stop playing basketball for a minute! Three demons are coming. Let's team up and take them out!"

After calling out, Mo Fan turned around and stared smugly toward the entrance.

That's strange. Where's the other guy? Mo Fan wondered.

A short while later, footsteps drew closer, and Lan Yu appeared in the doorway.

"Where are the three demonesses?" Mo Fan asked when he saw Lan Yu.

"We could've taken them out together, but you ran off at full speed," Lan Yu said. "Also, look behind you."

Mo Fan turned around and saw the female students playing basketball suddenly collapse as if struck by some kind of curse, groaning in pain.

"Fan Mo, didn't I tell you the indoor basketball court was full of red dots?" At the same time, Lingling's voice came through the earpiece at the worst possible moment.

WTF?

It was full of red dots?

That meant...

Damn it!!!

"Can you handle them?" Lingling asked.

"Handle them? Hell no! Run!"

Mo Fan hurriedly turned around and summoned the Blood Beast Boots.

"Why run? They haven't turned into demons yet," Lan Yu said.

He walked into the indoor basketball court. Golden stars appeared one by one around him, and at the command of his mind, they lined up along a specific path.

Light Radiance—Purification!

In an instant, dazzling light blazed across the basketball court.

The female students in the middle of transforming into demons shrieked in terror, as if they'd encountered their natural enemy.

At the same time, golden specks of light shimmered at Lan Yu's fingertips.

Lan Yu flicked the specks from his fingertips. Like pellets, they flew slowly and straight toward the female students lying on the ground, crying out in pain and fear.

Before long, all eight female students had returned to normal. They'd been dealt with before they could finish transforming.

The sight reminded Lan Yu of General Duanmu.

Meanwhile, in the creative room on the second floor of the gymnasium—

Zhao Manyan took out his phone and hesitated for a moment before finally calling Lan Yu.

"Where the hell are you? Come help me take a girl to the infirmary. It looks like something's possessed her..." Zhao Manyan said.

"Damn you! Why the hell are you calling me right now?!" Lan Yu cursed.

Inside the indoor basketball court, Lan Yu had just been about to catch his breath when Zhao Manyan's call startled him.

"I said there's a girl here who needs help getting to the infirmary. Those terrifying rumors going around the school—I think I've figured out what's causing them," Zhao Manyan said.

"Where the hell are you?" Lan Yu asked.

"Creative room, second floor of the gymnasium."

After ending the call, Lan Yu looked at Mo Fan and said, "Come on, Great Demon King. The creative room on the second floor."

Mo Fan's mouth twitched. It seemed he'd never shake off the title of Great Demon King.

The two ran up to the second floor and soon found the creative room.

Inside, besides Zhao Manyan, there were two girls.

One was disheveled, clearly having just done something; the other had wrapped herself in a tablecloth and was huddled in a corner, panic written all over her face.

"Um, don't get the wrong idea. Look at these scales—she crawled out of them," Zhao Manyan explained awkwardly.

"No need to explain. We know," Mo Fan said.

Mo Fan then explained the whole story behind the Cyan-Yellow Demonesses.

"Damn it, what kind of disgusting monster is this? It turned a beautiful girl into... that!" Zhao Manyan said. "Does the school know?"

Buzz—

"They've been notified. They should be taking action... Hey, did you hear that?" Mo Fan asked, puzzled.

"I heard it too. It sounds like the gymnasium's automatic doors are starting up."

Just then, Lingling's voice came through the earpiece as well.

"Annoying guy, all the exits to the gymnasium have been sealed."

"Sealed? Then those Scale-Skin Demons are trapped like turtles in a jar," Lan Yu said.

Lingling ignored Lan Yu's strange train of thought and continued, "It was the school and the Hunter Union's decision. They can't let anyone carrying the Parasitic Demon Insect get out. Otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous, so they have to lock down and isolate the area."
