Chapter 140 A Fish That Escaped the Net
The moonlight, like water, bathed the quiet streets, painting the night into a gentle picture.
After leaving the hot pot restaurant,
"Is Hoshino-sensei about to go back?" Bai Yuze gazed at the bright moon hidden behind the clouds, then turned his gaze to the female teacher beside him.
"Mm." Hoshino Seri nodded.
On the quiet street, the sound of their footsteps on the cobblestones was clearly audible as they reached the crossroads.
"So, Mr. Hoshino, are you planning to take a taxi or the bus?"
"I'll take the bus. I just ate a big meal, so I'll take a walk."
Hoshino Seri glanced at Bai Yuze beside her, a smile playing on her lips, and turned to walk toward the bus stop.
"it is good."
Bai Yuzhe responded and followed beside her.
It's not far from here to the bus stop, about ten minutes' walk.
Hoshino Seri's figure appeared elegant and charming under the streetlights, while the trees on both sides of the street swayed gently in the breeze.
Bai Yuzhe took a deep breath, just as he was about to say something.
"Don't confess your feelings, brother, never confess your feelings... Don't let women tempt you. Women are all liars. When you're useful, they'll come to you, suck your blood and eat your flesh; when you're no longer useful, they'll kick you aside."
A strange man, completely shrouded in black robes, ran wildly down the street, shouting madly, interrupting Bai Yuze's words.
Bai Yuze:
Hoshino Seri:
?
In silence,
Bai Yuze silently walked in front of Hoshino Seri.
He glanced at the dim streetlights and saw a young man, not very old, wearing glasses. He was quite handsome, but seemed a bit neurotic.
"Young man, is there anything I can help you with?"
"Brother, you'd better get away from that woman behind you. She's a monster. All women are monsters. They're after our money, our youth, everything we have. Brother, listen to my advice!"
The young man was angry, roaring, and pleading.
""..this."
Bai Yuze hesitated for a moment before taking Hoshino Seri's hand.
He was preparing to leave immediately; it was clear this guy was badly hurt by the woman.
More importantly,
This young man has become a demon.
They are very likely survivors who escaped from yesterday's attack.
If he were alone here, he might have kindly asked a few Chesias to come and comfort the other person.
Let's forget about it for now.
Seeing Bai Yuze pulling the woman and about to turn and leave,
The young man became angry and started shouting wildly:
"Why? Why don't you believe me? Can't you live without a woman?"
"Will you die without a woman by your side?"
"Why are you forcing me? Why are you forcing me?!"
The black robe burst open, revealing a body about five meters long. Its entire body was covered in black fur that clung to its body. Its head resembled that of a wolf, with a protruding mouth and long, sharp fangs. Foul-smelling saliva constantly flowed from between its fangs, dripping onto the street.
Those scarlet eyes were fixed on Hoshino Seri standing next to Bai Yuze.
Staring at the terrifying monster before him, Bai Yuzhe never expected that this young man would go all out.
Turning his head, he whispered to the female teacher behind him:
"Hoshino-sensei, I'll hold it off for a bit, you run first."
"This monster is clearly more attractive to women. I'll hold it off, Teacher Bai, you run!"
Unexpectedly, although Hoshino Seri's face was pale, she did not scream or run away like a normal person. Instead, she volunteered to cover the rear.
Bai Yuzhe hadn't expected that the usually gentle and considerate female teacher would be so strong at this moment, showing no fear whatsoever.
Is this what is often referred to as being outwardly gentle but inwardly firm?
He had witnessed another side of Hoshino-sensei, but he wasn't about to let a woman take the fall.
Once Hoshino-sensei leaves, dealing with this monster will be a simple matter of one strike.
"Hoshino-sensei..."
Before they could finish speaking, a blue-orange magical girl flew down from the horizon and launched into a tirade of abuse at the two of them.
"Both of you, come up behind me. You're both grown ups, don't you know that Tianxin District isn't safe at night?"
It wasn't that Li Xuanyu didn't recognize the other person; it was precisely because she saw Bai Yuze at a glance that she became even more furious.
If she had arrived any later, how would she have explained it to Bai Youqing?
.
In silence, the two of them silently endured the scolding as they obediently walked behind the magical girl.
After confirming repeatedly that Bai Yuze and the others were not injured,
Li Xuanyu finally breathed a sigh of relief, but her blue eyes turned to the abyss werewolf in front of her, and her heart, which had just settled down, jumped again.
The Abyss Werewolf, with the strength of [Eclipse], gains a power boost on the night of a full moon. It has a particular fondness for fresh flesh and blood, which can help it heal its injuries. In addition, it is extremely sensitive to the smell of blood, so encountering this calamity beast often results in a fight to the death.
After several days of training, she was fully confident in dealing with the [Meteor] level monsters, but this was her first time dealing with a [Moon Eclipse] level monster.
Yiming! Women all deserve to die!!!
With a roar at the bright moon, the massive beast stomped backward with its claws, causing the ground to cave in and easily tearing apart the concrete pavement.
It's about to launch an attack.
Li Xuanyu was taken aback when she heard the other person suddenly say that.
It then quickly turned around and flew upwards; how much resentment must the other party harbor towards the woman?
Night fell, and the moonlight shone like silver.
The tangerine-green magic dress stood out vividly in the moonlight. Li Xuanyu held a sapphire magic staff, breathing lightly a few times.
His eyes flashed with fear and lingering dread.
The abyssal werewolf had been only a meter away from her.
Li Xuanyu took a deep breath, waved her magic wand, and gave a soft shout. A bluish-orange light shone from her body, forming a protective shield that kept the ordinary people nearby safe.
Then, he began to confront the ruthless man from the abyss with all his might.
The abyssal werewolf, extremely tall with thick fur and bloodshot eyes radiating a bloodthirsty frenzy, roared and pounced on Li Xuanyu's position once more.
The silvery-white claws, carrying immense ferocity, tore through the air, creating gusts of wind.
Li Xuanyu responded coldly, and a cyan-orange magic orb condensed at the tip of her magic wand.
He silently chanted an incantation, and the magic orb instantly transformed into a streak of azure light.
They went straight for the werewolf.
However, the dazzling cyan orb struck the abyssal werewolf without having any effect.
Its body trembled slightly, then quickly returned to normal.
It continued its fierce attack on Li Xuanyu, who was suspended in mid-air. Li Xuanyu's expression suddenly changed.
Only then did she notice that the werewolf's fur had unknowingly turned silver.
The dark clouds in the sky have dispersed, and a waning moon has been revealed.
This provides a certain buff to the Abyss Werewolf.
No, this can't go on. She has to find the weakness of this abyssal werewolf quickly.
Li Xuanyu turned and retreated, dodging the werewolf's pounce. In that instant...
She instantly summoned several wind blades, which drew elegant arcs in the air.
They attacked the ruthless man from the abyss from various tricky angles.
Trying to find the other party's weaknesses,
Under the moonlight, the abyssal werewolf seemed completely unfazed by Li Xuanyu's magical attacks.
All the wind blades struck its body, but none of them were neutralized by the silver-white fur on its body.
Despite the urgency, Li Xuanyu showed no concern; instead, she appeared relieved.
