Full-time mage: start from the lottery

"Ah? You said it, don't go back on it."

"Do not lie to you."

At this moment, hearing Nu Jiaojiao's response, Lin Guangbei's eyes quickly lit up, and his interest surged up again.

As a billionaire, he naturally despises the money returned to the Kongming Lantern.

Without a trace of hesitation, he immediately prepared to go to the place on the other side of the river where he was guessing lantern riddles.

Although this has been full of twists and turns, and I have been struggling for a while without doing anything, but it is still early, but it does not hurt.

Not long after, a few dark clouds moved.

When the moonlight in the sky was obscured, few people noticed that several abandoned Kongming lanterns were suddenly floating on the river.

The Kongming lantern is lying on the water, and the fire in it has long been extinguished, leaving only the white paper vaguely visible.

The Huangpu River that runs through the city is actually quite wide, hundreds of meters long.

People standing on the bridge linger in the night, or are attracted by the candied haws carried by vendors, and there are even people who set up stalls here to put stickers on them...

The river flows quietly, but at some point, a shadow lurks in it.

The remains of the Kongming Lantern flowed under the bridge, making a clanging sound but suddenly sinking!
It was as if something had torn it off with force. After a few splashes, it quickly returned to its previous calmness.

Lin Guangbei and Mu Nujiao had already walked up to the crowded bridge.

He had just taken two cloud-like marshmallows from the vendor, one purple and one cyan. Lin Guangbei handed the cyan one to Mu Nujiao.

"Actually, you don't need to buy it. It's your money." Although she was a little moved, Mu Nujiao pursed her lips and shook her head.

The expenses tonight were not much, most of them were on that meal, but it would not be good if every payment was paid through Lin Guangbei.

She had already planned in her mind to transfer money to the other party when she got back. When she went out, her phone was almost out of battery, so now she had no choice but to return it to the other party.

"This is only a few bucks..."

"Tom!!!"

Before he finished speaking, the clear sound of water breaking appeared!
Lin Guangbei's expression immediately changed and he paused at what he said.

In his perception, a huge demon appeared from under the water under the bridge. He immediately turned around and followed the sound, only to find...

"what!!!"

The shrill screams of girls suddenly sounded!
A sea monster soared into the sky and flew up to the bridge. In sight, the girl at the guardrail of the bridge had not made any move. When the sea monster fell, its vicious mouth bit the girl.

In an instant, blood shot everywhere!

It's like biting tofu, even the bones can't stop the ferocious-toothed demon in the slightest!
Spots of bright red blood spattered and quickly fell on many people around. Looking over there, the upper half of the victim girl's body was gone...

The expressions of several people nearby became stiff, and their whole bodies were trembling uncontrollably!

They later realized that when such an impactful scene fell into their eyes, a sense of fear suddenly arose in their hearts. For a while, they staggered and sat directly on the ground, unable to recover for a long time.

"Tom!!!"

The sound of falling water startled...

"Demon! Siren!"

"Why is there a sea monster here?!"

A young woman's pupils were wide open, her face was filled with an expression of disbelief, and her teeth were chattering.

Suddenly, the smell of blood spread.

Lin Guangbei frowned and stepped forward to take a look.

Of course, she is not afraid of any crisis when she wears obsidian earrings (modified from overalls), but Mu Nujiao is different. She doesn’t have much experience in killing monsters, so if she is ambushed, the consequences will be disastrous!

Mu Nujiao was a little worried and walked over, but was quickly stopped by Lin Guang.

"Just stay where you are and be careful."

Lin Guangbei gave instructions.Perhaps because his attitude was very serious and the bloody scene happened right in front of her eyes, Mu Nujiao did not dare to be careless and quickly stopped.

Where it entered the eye, half of the corpse fell to the ground, bleeding gurglingly.

After a while, a large puddle of blood formed, and there were several people in a state of panic sitting on the ground, unable to move. It was obvious that they were so frightened that their legs were weak.

He walked past the bloody corpses calmly and did not dwell on it.

Standing by the guardrail of the bridge, Lin Guangbei looked down.

The dark river water is still the same, but now it is a bit more dark red. Although there are lights on both sides of the river, there are still many places that cannot be seen clearly.

The figure of the siren has disappeared without leaving any clues. On the river, a few blank sheets of Kongming lanterns flowed past.

"Kongming lantern, siren, could it be a coincidence?"

Lin Guangbei looked at it carefully and murmured.

He was in this position very ostentatiously, but the sea monster seemed to have disappeared...

The rivers in Magic City are generally treated.

At the location where it is connected to the ocean, the government has set up a special monster defense line to prevent sea monsters from flowing into the Huangpu River in the city.

What's more, there are already organizations that will detect the rivers and clean up the monsters. The sea monster that appeared at this moment was so sudden that Lin Guangbei really didn't know where to start.

Once the demon escapes into the river, it will be difficult for the mage to hunt it down.

Since the river water can conduct electricity, he tried to drop a few lightning bolts into the river, but apart from causing splashes of water, there was no movement at all.

It stands to reason that if the demon was still around here, he would roar in pain...

"Escaped."

Lin Guangbei's eyes flickered and he withdrew his hand.

At this moment, being shocked by the murder, everyone on the bridge had almost fled. Except for the mages, few dared to stay here.

The scattered seven or eight mages didn't want to meddle in other people's business, so they all walked under the bridge.

"How about we go home? Tonight..."

Mu Nujiao hesitated and asked.

Although I wasn't afraid, after these two things happened, my mood for going shopping was completely gone.

Moreover, if the people from the trial will come over later, if they still stay here, it will be troublesome to be involved by then.

"I think so too."

Lin Guangbei nodded.

He paid a little attention to the Kongming Lantern still floating in the river, made some guesses in his mind, and then left with Mu Nujiao in a hurry.

……

……

By the time he got home, it was already after nine o'clock.

Under the meaningful gazes of his parents, Lin Guangbei quickly hid in his bedroom, not daring to stay in the living room for a moment longer.

He lay on the bed and sighed.

Tonight's Lantern Festival is really not going as expected.

Buying a sky lantern can lead to arrests at the trial, and buying marshmallows can lead to a murder case involving a siren. All these unsatisfactory experiences really made him feel extremely unlucky.

"I haven't drawn any good stuff recently. Why am I so unlucky?"

After muttering, he packed up his clothes and went to take a shower. (End of chapter)
