Chapter 64: Just Wandering the Streets Late at Night! The Monsters Will Definitely Come Find You!
"Ms. Jiang Han, why do I have to be the bait?"
"What? You little brat, you don't expect me to lure those monsters for you, do you? I haven't killed the person possessed by that monster, so I wouldn't be effective anyway!"
"Alright then... Ms. Jiang Han, where are you now? Can you get closer to me? I'm a bit scared..."
"Xiaoming, are you scared now? Don't worry, I'm nearby. As soon as that monster appears, I'll be there to save you. If my analysis is correct, the host it possessed was at least an eighty-level awakened human before it died!"
"Ei... Eighty-level? That's sixty-four levels higher than me! Ms. Jiang Han, are you sure you can save me in time when it appears near me?"
"Should... should be able to?"
"What do you mean by 'should'? Be more certain!"
"Alright, alright, I'm certain. Don't be scared, I'll protect you. You look quite cute when you're scared, little guy!"
"Scram!"
"How dare you speak to your teacher like that, you rebellious student?"
Ignoring Jiang Han's angry voice message, Lin Tianming put on his headphones and continued wandering aimlessly through the deserted Imperial Capital Grand Academy at night.
He had been chatting with Jiang Han through his headphones to alleviate his tension from the unseen enemy. However, the more he talked with Jiang Han, the less reliable she seemed.
He had to rely on himself!
If any monster really appeared, he would hit it with a super-level forbidden spell lightning skill!
What did eighty-level matter? Under a super-level forbidden spell lightning skill, it would be reduced to ashes!
Lin Tianming wandered around the Imperial Capital Grand Academy for a long time without encountering anyone or any sudden attacks.
But he did receive a voice message from Jiang Han.
"There are traces of monster energy, but it's very subtle. They seem to be wary. It looks like they're afraid of alerting high-level awakened ones while acting in the Imperial Capital Grand Academy."
Lin Tianming frowned after listening to Jiang Han's message through his headphones.
Why hadn't he sensed anything?
Instead of replying with a voice message, he pretended to be a night owl playing on his phone and typed back to Jiang Han.
"So what should I do?"
"Continue being the bait. The big fish hasn't come out yet, only small fry. You need to go out!"
"Huh? Go where?"
"Silly boy, don't you have any sense of teamwork with your master? Just leave the Imperial Capital Grand Academy, any gate will do, and wander the streets! Go to the most secluded places!"
"Are you sure this will work?"
"Trust my judgment. Wandering the streets late at night, especially in secluded, poorly lit areas with broken streetlights and damaged cameras, will definitely attract the monsters!"
"I feel like you're setting me up!"
Despite feeling set up, Lin Tianming still followed Jiang Han's instructions and left the Imperial Capital Grand Academy.
He continued to communicate with Jiang Han via his phone, never hearing her voice directly.
He was sure she was lying about being nearby. She was probably watching from the farthest possible distance; otherwise, he would have heard her voice.
Even though he found Jiang Han unreliable, Lin Tianming walked out of the Imperial Capital Grand Academy and started moving towards dark, secluded areas.
He wandered down several streets until the buildings of the Imperial Capital Grand Academy were no longer visible.
The streetlights on both sides of the road flickered intermittently, and the few surveillance cameras were broken and hadn't been repaired.
"You're being watched!"
Receiving a rare voice message from Jiang Han, Lin Tianming typed back, "Is it the big fish you mentioned?"
"The big fish hasn't appeared yet. I mean you're being watched by the Imperial Awakening Battle Group. They must have seen the surveillance footage of your fight with the monster at noon and are tracking you."
"The Imperial Awakening Battle Group?"
"They're responsible for maintaining daily order in the Imperial Capital. They're probably watching you from the shadows, waiting for you to lure out the monsters."
Lin Tianming felt quite annoyed.
Why did everyone want to use him as bait for monsters at night?
"Be ready for battle at any moment. I have a feeling they're about to make a move. You can handle the small fry on your own. I'll help you when the big fish shows up! Good luck!"
Almost simultaneously with Jiang Han's warning, several eerie monster energies emerged from the shadows, quickly closing in on him.
Lin Tianming, feeling frustrated about being used as bait, was ready to vent his anger.
Seeing the approaching monster energies and the people tainted by them, his eyes turned sharp.
Spirit Flame!
The boiling spirit flames split into several streams, each targeting the source of the monster energies.
The spirit flames, which were especially powerful against monsters, burned the possessed humans to death instantly.
Easily dispatching these small fry, Lin Tianming was about to contact Jiang Han to ask when the big fish would appear when a terrifying monster energy that made his heart race suddenly attacked him.
"These minions are useless. It took me a lot of effort to bring them in here, hoping they'd do more. But they couldn't even handle a sixteen-level low-grade awakened human!"
From the end of the dark street, a figure cloaked in monster energy, identical but stronger than the black-clad man he had encountered earlier, slowly emerged.
Seeing this figure, Lin Tianming felt immense pressure.
It was the oppressive force from an absolute level disparity, making it hard for him to breathe.
This must be the big fish Jiang Han mentioned!
Without seeing Jiang Han, Lin Tianming didn't type but sent her a voice message.
"The big fish is out. Where are you?"
Tonight, Jiang Han had always responded instantly, but now there was no reply, increasing Lin Tianming's pressure.
"Human, do you know it costs me greatly to send each possessed corpse here? Even the weakest body you killed today took a lot of effort. You... deserve to die!"
As the furious man spoke, he released a ferocious ghost face similar to the one the black-clad man had shown during the day, but much more powerful.
Spirit Storm!
Lin Tianming immediately unleashed a Spirit Storm, but despite its amplified power, it seemed weak against the monster's overwhelming level.
In just a moment, Lin Tianming's Spirit Storm was torn apart by the ghost face.
"Die, human! I'll enjoy your soul and take over your body. With your body, my grand plan will be closer to success!"
This monster... could it really be an eighty-level one, as Jiang Han said?
Seeing his Spirit Storm easily shattered, Lin Tianming's eyes darkened.
With Jiang Han still absent, he couldn't worry about her intentions anymore.
He decided to use a super-level forbidden skill to destroy the monster!
Super Forbidden Spell... Purple Thunderquake...
But just as Lin Tianming was about to cast the super forbidden spell, it was interrupted.
He thought it was the monster, but when he looked at the possessed man, he saw the ghost face being pierced by flourishing petals.
To his amazement, the entire street was filled with beautiful, colorful petals.
A petal brushed past his ear, and he heard a soft, seductive whisper directly in his mind through his headphones, making him feel a bit euphoric.
"Your task is complete. Avoid using super forbidden spells in the Imperial Capital; they might harm innocent people."
