Chapter 46: Encounter (1)
Chapter 46: Encounter (1)
After school at night, it was a lively time.
Students flooded out of the campus.
The school gate was filled with food stalls.
The air was filled with the fragrance of all kinds of food.
Multigrain pancakes, egg pancakes, tenderloin roujiamo, pan-fried tofu, roasted chicken drumsticks, fried chicken, braised duck neck…
Students in school uniforms quickly surrounded the food stalls and filled them up.
Holding the chicken collarbone, Su Mo and Qian Tao ate as they walked, not forgetting to observe a girl ten meters away.
The girl looked to be about thirteen or fourteen years old. Her appearance was ordinary and her body was thin and weak, but she carried a youthful vitality unique to her age.
At this moment, she was chatting with her two friends about which milk tea would not make her gain weight.
He did not notice the two weird uncles following behind him.
Su Mo ate as he looked at her back.
With his enhanced physical fitness after breaking through to Tier 2, he could clearly capture the content of the other party’s conversation even if they were more than ten meters apart in this extremely noisy environment.
However, his attention was not focused on the content of the conversation. Instead, he used [eye of truth] to observe the blood flowing in her body.
It was a blood that was different from ordinary people. It was a demonic purple.
Even compared to Wang Linglan, she was not inferior.
However, what was surprising was that this girl did not have any strange symptoms at all.
He could talk, laugh, run, and jump. He looked no different from a normal person.
He recalled that the other two individuals he had observed not long ago were also similar to ordinary people.
This was probably the special individual required for the ritual.
Even if the origin blood was implanted, it would not show any abnormalities.
In other words, they could completely withstand the erosion of the origin blood on their bodies.
Wang Linglan, who was able to sense that something was wrong with her body, was somewhat special.
Even among Yang Zhichao’s ritual options, she was a special existence.
Unfortunately, she was currently at Team Furong headquarters.

Even if Yang Zhichao had ten guts, he probably wouldn’t dare to go over and rob someone.
Without a doubt, there were only three options left for him.
The question was, which one would he choose?
Su Mo pondered.
Qian Tao took the last two chicken collarbones when he wasn’t paying attention.
As he chewed, he asked,”
“We’ve already gone through these three people. Which one do you think is more likely to be chosen as the sacrifice?”
Su Mo thought about it and replied,”
“If we judge according to the degree of contamination, the probability of the second nurse from Guang Ming Hospital is higher.
Among the three of them, she was the most contaminated. Perhaps she would be able to complete the transformation in two days.”
Qian Tao was slightly surprised.
“I didn’t expect you to be able to observe their pollution level. I thought that only us ranger could easily see it.”
Then, he continued,
“As you know, the second nurse is the most likely among the three. She will be the first sacrifice to complete the transformation.
According to common sense, Yang Zhichao had no reason to leave such a sacrifice untouched.
In particular, with reference to the rituals of other evil professions, it was very likely that he would immediately throw the sacrifice into the ritual as soon as the sacrifice was successfully transformed to ensure the greatest effect of the promotion.”
“However, I have some doubts about this.”
Looking at the girl who waved goodbye to her friends and turned into the alley, Su Mo continued,”
“The degree of contamination is indeed the highest in the second nurse, but the girl in front of us cannot be underestimated either.
Her fusion rate was the first among the three.
In other words, she had been contaminated even more deeply and thoroughly.
For example, she was not the fastest, but she was the best.
If I were Yang Zhichao, I wouldn’t even care about wasting a random sacrifice.
They also had to ensure that the sacrifices were of the best quality.”
“But there are two of them, so it’s a little difficult.”
Qian Tao frowned slightly and pondered.
“Yang Zhichao is not that strong, but he is very good at escaping.
If there were not enough people, it would be easy for him to escape on the spot.
We can only set up a layout in one place.
Perhaps he could make a time difference.
First, he planned to set up a trap for the nurse who had the fastest conversion.
If Yang Zhichao came out, he would kill him on the spot.
If he doesn’t come out, we’ll move to the vicinity of this female student after we save the nurse and carry out the second round of arrangements.
In this way, whether Yang Zhichao was targeting the nurse or the female student, there would be no problem.”
“Then what if the other party chooses to attack in advance?”
Su Mo asked,”
“He kidnapped this female student before the nurse successfully transformed. What should we do?”
“This…”
Qian Tao’s expression was uncertain.
This time, they went back to the original route.
Su Mo threw the bag into the trash can and suggested,”
“I have an immature idea.
Look at the second nurse, the one in front of you is a student.
Then can we arrange for this student to fall sick and go to that hospital for treatment?
With the society’s strength, completing this small matter was a piece of cake.
Moreover, there was not much of a problem with the logic behind it.
Isn’t it normal to go to the hospital when you’re sick?
Even with Yang Zhichao’s cunning and suspicious nature, he might still take the bait.”
Qian Tao thought for a moment and sighed.
“That’s probably the only way. At least I can take care of two people.
I’ll go and tell deacon Xu to make arrangements.”
“I’m afraid there’s no need to make any arrangements.”
Su Mo looked into the distance, and his gaze became very serious.”
“He’s already here!”
As soon as he finished speaking, three figures suddenly jumped out of the lonely and narrow alley.
Two of them rushed over to the group while the other grabbed the girl and rushed into the distance.
“Put her down!”
Qian Tao roared in rage. His figure suddenly rushed out, but he was stopped by the two people working together.
Su Mo’s eyes darkened, and a white sword of energy appeared in his hand as he charged forward.
“instant sword!”
He traversed a distance of more than seven meters and appeared directly in front of the figure on the right, slashing down with his sword.
The other party prepared to dodge out of reflex.
“Soul Stabilizing Technique!”
A moment of delay.
The Qi sword pierced through.
The figure was cut in half on the spot.
They quickly turned into two pools of stinky blood.
At this moment, Qian Tao had already dealt with another person.
He looked at Su Mo in surprise.
Although these two figures were just Yang Zhichao’s Blood Shadow Doppelgangers.
However, they all had the strength of a Tier 3 expert.
Even if it had not reached the peak of Tier 3, it was more than enough to suppress a Tier 2.
He did not expect to be killed by him in a single move.
When did the Sword Saint profession become so terrifying?
Before he could ask the question in his heart, Qian Tao frowned and looked at the empty alley. His expression was very ugly as he said,
“The mark I left on that girl has been covered.
He ran too fast and I couldn’t catch his aura.
I’m afraid it’ll be very difficult to track him down.”
“It’s fine. I have a way.”
Su Mo took out a pocket-sized jade bottle.
The jade bottle contained a drop of purple blood that was trembling slightly.
