Chapter 15 Azure Sky Hunting Grounds
A strange energy flowed from his palm through the blood vessels of his body, then flashed by and was injected into his spiritual universe...
Somewhere in the chaotic spiritual universe, it was as if tiny lives were being conceived and born there. They looked at this spiritual space and slowly, very slowly, marked out a small territory that belonged to them.
Tiny as dust, they cautiously establish themselves in their own territory, seemingly with a hint of aggression, desiring a wider domain.
Lu Jie recognized the golden and pink stardust immediately.
Light system and mind system.
The Mind-type is understandable; it's probably due to the Sharingan. After all, the Sharingan is also known as the eye that reflects the mind. Since he possesses the Kamui Sharingan, it's not surprising that he awakened the Mind-type.
But this light element...
Could it be because I silently recited the Golden Light Mantra twice?
"Alright, alright, now that you've awakened, hurry up and leave. I'm busy." Seeing that Lu Jie hadn't reacted for a while, Guo Liyu waved his hand and started to shoo him away.
After all, he had seen many people awaken here, and most of them only awakened elemental types. Even if they used guiding stones, they might not awaken any good types.
When Guo Liyu saw that Lu Jie had awakened the Light element, he thought the former was stunned and could not believe that he had awakened the Light element.
Lu Jie didn't say anything, just nodded, said thank you, and left.
After leaving the Mingzhu Pagoda, Lu Jie picked up his phone and saw that there were several missed calls.
Three of them belong to Mo Fan, and the other three are from Hangzhou.
Without a second thought, Lu Jie immediately added the second one to his blacklist. He never expected that there would be scam calls in this magical world.
Then he called Mo Fan.
Sorry, the number you dialed is currently switched off. Please try again later...
Lu Jie frowned slightly. Why is the phone off?
Then it dawned on me that I must have gone to the Water Play Town to get the Rose Flame.
However, Lu Jie didn't think much of Mei Yan either, since he already had something better and there was no need to covet what others had while eating what was in the pot.
He initially planned to go back after awakening, but then he changed his mind and turned on the navigation, heading towards the Azure Sky Hunting Grounds.
I could trigger the sign-in event in Xuefeng Mountain before, so there's no reason why I can't trigger it in Qingtian Hunting Grounds.
If you miss the special admissions process for Mingzhu Academy two months ago, you'll have to wait until next year.
After walking along the lush, flower-filled avenue, Lu Jie slowly stepped into an old street that had a unique charm reminiscent of the Republic of China era.
At the end of the old street, you can easily spot a sign that creaks gently in the wind.
The words "Qingtian Hunting Ground" are written on it!
As you get closer, this old shop is similar to a traditional Chinese-English teahouse.
As soon as the door opened, the girl with pigtails sitting at the bar spoke.
"The starting price for a commission is 300,000, and the price will be increased depending on the difficulty of the commission. We don't accept commissions from nobody that are less than 300,000," the young girl said to Lu Jie as she sat there.
"No, no, little sister, I didn't make any appointment. I'm here for an interview," Lu Jie said.
The little girl put down her comic book, looked up at Lu Jie, and thought that although he was very handsome, his strength was just so-so.
"Would you like to be a demon hunter in our hunting camp?" The little girl put down her comic book, looked Lu Jie up and down, and then said, "You're quite handsome, why are you so desperate? Wouldn't it be better to find a rich woman to take care of you?"
Gan!
Lu Jie was stunned. Was he looking for a rich woman who liked to use steel wool?
I'm afraid I ate too much and can't digest it.
"Lingling, do you have any requests?" At that moment, an old man's voice came from the small door behind the bar.
"Grandpa, he came to apply for the job, but he's too young. We don't want him," Lingling said, then went back to reading her comic book.
The small door opened, and an old man slowly walked out and looked at Lu Jie.
"It's good to be young, you're not afraid of anything. It's just a pity to die with such a good body, before you've even had a chance to enjoy life," the old man said as he wiped his pipe.
"..."
Lu Jie was speechless. Since he had already come all this way, he naturally wouldn't be rejected on his first interview.
"What's your major, young man?"
"plant."
The two talked back and forth, and the old man gained a general understanding of Lu Jie. Then he said:
"My surname is Bao, just call me Old Man Bao. This is my granddaughter, call her Lingling."
"So that means I've successfully joined the company?" Lu Jie asked happily.
"Once you complete this commission, you will be a formal demon hunter of the hunting grounds." Old Man Bao took out a commission document and handed it to Lu Jie.
Lu Jie took the commission from Old Man Bao. The commission stated: "There are suspected signs of demons in an orphanage."
???
"Shouldn't this be handled by the city's monster-hunting team?" Lu Jie looked at the request, completely baffled.
In a big city like this, the monster-hunting team should at least be composed of mid-level members. It's not like a single monster would warrant the involvement of a hunting agency.
"The demon-hunting team went to check, but they didn't find any demons, except for some strange scratch marks," Old Bao said, exhaling a smoke ring.
"That's why the demon-hunting team handed this commission over to us. If you think it's too difficult, I have other commissions to handle."
"No, this is fine." Lu Jie rolled up the commission and put it in his pocket.
Upon hearing this, Old Man Bao chuckled and said, "Then congratulations in advance."
Lu Jie waved his hand and then left Qingtian Hunting Grounds.
The moment Lu Jie left, Lingling had already packed her gear and ran out after him.
"Don't worry, Grandpa, I'll be careful."
As she left, Lingling turned back to Old Man Bao and said that she hadn't been out for two months since her senior brother Xiaoding went out on a mission, and she wouldn't miss such a good opportunity.
"This child..." Old Bao shook his head helplessly.
Lu Jie, who was walking ahead, heard running footsteps behind him. He turned around and saw that it was Lingling.
"Hey, wait for me."
Lingling came up to Lu Jie, who looked down at her. Because he had watched the anime, Lu Jie did not underestimate her because of her age. After all, this little girl was well-versed in the knowledge of all kinds of demons.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call her a walking encyclopedia of demons, not to mention she's a master hunter. Although she was brought up there, it's undeniable that Lingling's abilities are indeed very strong.
As if anticipating something, Lingling pulled out a red booklet with the words "Hunter Master" printed on it.
"I'm a master hunter, so I'll carry you to higher ranks from now on," Lingling said proudly.
Lu Jie clapped his hands and said to Lingling, "I didn't expect you to be so amazing, Lingling."
"That's right." Lingling proudly raised her head.
The two hailed a taxi, heading straight for the orphanage mentioned in the commission.
