Dark-colored Fairy Tale: Seven Magicians - Chapter 34

Chapter 34

The concern in the girl’s eyes was undisguised, which made Chloe reach out in a good mood and tousle the girl’s brown hair.

“Did you forget? We have our sacrifices.”

Liu Menglu immediately remembered the two-meter-long spear and couldn’t help but show a strange smile. “Did you personally choose that sacrifice, or was it assigned to you?”

Chloe looked a little confused. “Is that question important?”

Liu Menglu nodded heavily. “Of course, it’s important. I really want to know who chose such a long spear for you. That spear is taller than you are. God knows how you swing it.”

“You’re always curious about these kinds of things,” Chloe said, looking at the girl’s curious expression. She couldn’t help but think of her teacher back in Fayalon.

When she had chosen this two-meter-long Parasite Spear, her teacher had been as surprised as the girl in front of her.

Although a sacrifice, once it chose a master, would be perfectly in sync with them, the weight of a long spear was not something a normal person could handle.

Seeing Chloe’s nostalgic expression, Liu Menglu blinked and looked away. She didn’t continue to press the question. Instead, she kept looking at her hand, wanting to ask but feeling too embarrassed.

In the end, by the time their dinner was over, Chloe didn’t bring up the topic of sacrifices again.

…

At the same time, the spot where Liu Menglu and Chloe had encountered the demon was now surrounded by two people.

Leading them was a capable-looking woman. She held a yellow talisman in her hand, carefully searching the area.

After some searching, she discovered that the demon had been destroyed by a powerful force. The woman realized the seriousness of the situation and reported it to her superior.

The Chinese Magical Being Headquarters became highly vigilant after seeing the message from the woman.

Every time a Chinese magical being appeared, their location would be recorded. And this time, a message about a sacrifice came from an unrecorded place. This was enough to show that a magical being from another faction had entered China.

This made Executive Officer No. 11, who was in charge of magical being entries and exits, wipe the dense beads of sweat from his forehead.

Although he didn’t know which faction had infiltrated China, it was better late than never. As long as he found the invading magical being, he might be able to redeem himself.

With this thought, Executive Officer No. 11 ordered his subordinates to begin a secret search in that area.

Although this group wasn’t very strong, with their familiarity with the terrain and their slight ability to sense demons, they quickly locked onto their final target.

At this moment, Liu Menglu was snuggled in her pink bed, hugging a doll and falling into a dream. Perhaps she was dreaming of being a magical girl, as she occasionally waved her wrist, as if a sacrifice was in her hand.

At the same time, a group of men and women in black bodysuits slowly pried open a window in Liu Menglu’s house.

“Hurry up. I saw that a little girl lives here. The family is rich, so it’ll be an easy job,” a woman with a sharp voice whispered to her boyfriend.

The man made an ‘okay’ gesture, then took out a thumb-sized flashlight from his pocket. Using the moonlight and streetlights from outside, he made his way to the TV drawer where money was usually kept.

The woman quietly went to the hallway and watched the closed door, afraid that the owner would wake up unexpectedly.

Just as the two of them began to search the living room, they suddenly heard a “clank.” A slender wire was hooked onto the burglar bars of the apartment above Liu Menglu’s. Then, a whooshing sound, and two figures entered the living room with a graceful swing on the wire.

The two thieves who had just entered were startled by this grand entrance. The woman couldn’t help but elbow her husband. “Honey, do thieves have to be so flashy these days?”

The male thief shook his head, and seeing his empty hands, he wanted to convince the two to leave together. After all, they were just thieves; they didn’t harm people.

“Hey, guys, there’s probably nothing here. Let’s find another place.”

Hearing the male thief’s words, the Chinese magical beings were confused.

Did the team leader send others to assist them? But why didn’t they receive any orders?

The male thief saw that the two of them weren’t leaving and was a little annoyed. He went up and lightly patted one of the magical beings.

“What’s wrong, brother? Don’t you believe me? I said there’s nothing here. If you want to do some useless work, I don’t have a problem with that.”

With that, the male thief pulled his girlfriend and left.

After all, the longer they stayed, the more likely they were to be discovered by the owner.

After the female thief and male thief couldn’t find any money, they decisively retreated. They were going to their next target.

The two magical beings who were left in the room looked at each other. One of them said, “Could it really be that the boss sent people to assist us?”

The other one also hesitated. “Possibly. Should we go?”

“Let’s go. Let’s look for it in other places.” With that, the two of them took out their wires and threw them toward the roof of another building.

Then, using the force of the wire, the two of them soared through the night sky like a Roc spreading its wings, landing on another building.

This made the male thief, who had witnessed everything and was slowly sliding down the wire, a little speechless.

“Damn it, do thieves have to have these kinds of skills now?”

The two magical beings had no idea that they had been mistaken for thieves. At this moment, they were holding their instruments and began to search for Chloe’s location again.

But the instrument kept pointing to Liu Menglu’s house.

The two magical beings looked at each other and thought the machine must be broken.

So, the two of them傻luded back to the magical being headquarters.

When they reported this information, the team leader was furious!

“Are you two idiots? There are only three of us in this team! How could I find other people to help you two?!”

“Can’t you even see through such a simple lie? Were you raised on sh1t?!”

The two magical beings were silent, and then they also became furious!

“That foreign magical being is too cunning!”

“Just wait, we’re going to rush her now!”

Hearing this, the team leader grabbed them by their feet and kicked the two idiots far away.

“You two fools! Since she’s so cunning, she must have expected us to see through her trick. She must have set up a lot of traps, waiting for us to fall into them!”

“How can we do as she wishes? We need to plan this carefully!”

Hearing this, the two magical beings were stunned!

“You’re worthy of being our team leader! Next time, under your brilliant guidance, we’ll definitely capture that cunning magical being and bring her to justice!”

“Of course.” The team leader huffed and began to rack his brain on how to break the situation.

Meanwhile, Chloe was sleeping soundly at Liu Menglu’s house.

As for setting traps? She actually didn’t know how to.
