Versatile Mage - Chaos Administrator

Chapter 165 Delicate Balance

The city is still brightly lit at night, with bright lights burning in the hotel room. The shadows of a man and a woman sitting opposite each other are reflected on the curtains, as if they are having a conversation.

"That's the thing. Now I need to find something called Si Quartz and make a deal with the Dark Lord to eliminate the curse on me."

Shen Mo sat back on the soft leather sofa and gently stroked his hair.

Her hair may have been dyed and was black on the outside, but from Lin Xi's perspective, it was red on the inside.

No, are you concerned about this now?

She said she was looking for Si Shiying to make a deal with the Dark Lord. Wasn't she looking for the Dark King?
"According to what you said, Si Shiying is deep in the Tianshan Mountains, right?" Lin Xi said.

"Yeah." Shen Mo nodded.

"But we can only operate outside the Tianshan Mountains and cannot go to the depths of the Tianshan Mountains!" Lin Xi explained.

According to Zhao Hua, their team's highest level of cultivation this time was only high-level three-series.

You may be a first-class expert on the outer reaches of the Tianshan Mountains, but if you take one step deeper into the Tianshan Mountains, your game will be over.

So they will not go to the depths of Tianshan Mountain.

"It's nothing. I just want to give you a ride. As for the depths of the Tianshan Mountains, I can go there myself." Shen Mo seemed to have already thought of a countermeasure and said disapprovingly:

"Moreover, I can also serve as your bodyguard. It is no exaggeration to say that no one below the monarch can defeat me!"

"Then how did you get maimed by the snake man before?" Lin Xi asked, but the other party became angry and shouted about "sneak attack" and "not practicing martial ethics".

After a few words of bickering, Lin Xi said: "Okay, it's not me who really has the right to speak. You should go next door to find Zhao Hua!"

I am not the initiator. Strictly speaking, I was only invited, but I am not qualified to add people to the team without permission.

"This is simple. You can pull the strings later and I will convince him."

Shen Mo geared up and seemed to be very enthusiastic about this kind of thing. After saying that, he stood up and walked out of the room, and Lin Xi had no choice but to follow.

"Dudududu!"

There was a knock on the door.

"Who is it?" came a vague voice and the sound of slippers scraping the floor.

"It's me, Lin Xi. Zhao Hua, please open the door. I have something to discuss with you."

The door opened, and Zhao Hua, who was still a little dazed, was obviously taken aback when he saw Shen Mo behind Lin Xi.

"Sister, why are you here?"

Zhao Hua and Shen Mo couldn't be said to know each other, but Shen Mo was considered a relatively famous figure on the main campus, and he had naturally seen Shen Mo's photos.

Several people walked into the room, and Lin Xi briefly talked about Shen Mo's desire to join the team, which as expected caused Zhao Hua's hesitation.

"I'm afraid it won't work." Zhao Hua said firmly, as if this was a very difficult decision.

Lin Xi gave Shen Mo a "I'll just tell you" look.

But Shen Mo didn't pay attention, he just reached out and grabbed Zhao Hua's hand, and his pupils turned blood red and blurred.

Zhao Hua's eyes were blank for a while, and then he let out a scream as if he had seen the most fearful thing deep in his heart, even alerting the guards outside.

Zhao Hua gasped and waved his hand to repel the rushing guard mage, his eyes bloodshot: "Are you... a stranger?"

"Yes." Shen Mo, who had been sitting on the sofa for a while, crossed his arms and nodded nonchalantly.

"Okay, I agree to your request, but I also hope that you can abide by the agreement. Even if it is a monarch-level stranger, the Zhao family has ways to deal with it." Zhao Hua wiped the sweat from his forehead and returned to his usual calm.

"No problem." Shen Mo stood up and left the room.

"Lin Xi, why didn't you tell me in advance?" Zhao Hua lay on the bed in a panic, seeming to still have some lingering fears. "I didn't expect that she would convince you like this!" Lin Xi apologized with some embarrassment.

"Forget it, it's not a big problem. It's a good thing that we have one more powerful vampire to help us."

After the two had a brief conversation, Lin Xi returned to the room, only to find that Shen Mo was still sitting on the sofa in the room.

"Can I ask you a question?" Lin Xi leaned over curiously and prepared two glasses of warm water, handing one to Shen Mo.

Shen Mo took the water cup and held it in his hand, asking: "What?"

"Aren't you worried about being hunted down by official organizations if you expose your identity in such a blatant way? The same thing happened with Principal Guo, the snake man."

This was something Lin Xi was very curious about. Shen Mo didn't seem to be worried about his identity being exposed at all.

"Hehe, junior fellow student, you are still too young." A smile appeared on Shen Mo's lips.

She stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the brightly lit city. She turned her head slightly and looked at Lin Xi: "Balance is a very delicate thing."

"For a foreigner like me who is in a special situation, I have already reported it to some official organizations, and there are people monitoring me all the time."

She printed her palms on her reflection on the glass and stared at a shadow on the tall building opposite: "As long as I behave like an ordinary citizen, I will always be Shen Mo, a student in the Dark Cinema Department of Pearl Academy. "

"Instead of... the alien vampire Shen Mo."

Shen Mo's voice gradually became lower, until it disappeared together with her figure.

Lin Xi looked at the place where she disappeared and was speechless for a long time.

He didn't know what Shen Mo meant by "special circumstances", nor did he understand why her final words had such a serious feeling of self-destruction.

It's like... "Are you hating your own identity?"

……

……

three days later.

Lin Xi received a call from Ling Huoyuan, informing him that the repair of [Tiger Soul] had been completed and asked him to pick up the goods.

"The repair of [Tiger Soul] Magic Equipment has been completed. Come with me to inspect the goods."

Ling Huoyuan's face was full of joy, as if he had just finished something exciting.

Lin Xi followed him to the grotto in the center of the earth again. The familiar heat wave hit her face, but it was much lighter than the last time.

On top of the flowing glacier in the grotto in the center of the earth, there is a majestic new armor suspended above it.

The heroic and majestic battle armor is overall brown.

, under the reflection of the flame cave fire on the other side, it showed a majestic color like golden red.

[Tiger Soul] The heart of the armor shows the huge mouth of a ferocious tiger, and extremely complex magic carvings are drawn around it. They are intertwined and woven, and you can feel the powerful power contained in it just by looking at it from a distance.

[Tiger Soul] is a complete set of magic equipment, so it does not only include armor magic equipment.

Similarly, the magic walking equipment, the claw-slaying magic equipment on the palms and even the helmet covering the head have all been repaired by Master Ling.

After watching it all, Lin Xi felt that [Tiger Soul] was alive. It was already a ferocious tiger and not a simple dead thing.

"Gudong." Lin Xi's Adam's apple rolled, and he could feel his heart beating wildly, and the unspeakable excitement surrounded him.

Right, which boy can refuse such a set of weapons?
