Chapter 131 West Lake Blockade
"You two little brothers, come with Tang Yue." Tang Zhong looked at Xu Mu and Mo Fan.

The totem black snake is very sensitive during the molting period. As long as any commander-level creature, high-level human wizard or above appears within a radius of 20 kilometers, it will arouse its hostility.

Tang Yue is currently the only person whose strength exceeds this limit but is not regarded as an enemy by the totem.

Mo Fan's cultivation is only at the intermediate level, and the Totem Black Snake would not take him seriously at all. However, Xu Mu has a totem vessel, so as long as he communicates properly, he will not arouse the hostility of the Black Snake.

The three of them are currently the best candidates to transfer the Totem Black Snake.

Xu Mu and Mo Fan had no objections, but Councillor Luo Mian suggested: "We must hurry up and move the Totem Black Snake. I will arrange for my subordinates to assist you three."

"Leave it to the three of them, and there will be no problem." Tang Zhong replied with a smile, "Brother Luo Mian, I have other things to discuss with you..."

……

Xu Mu and the other two had no idea what happened in the conference room afterwards. In short, Hei Yu, Tang Zhong and Luo Mian all stayed in the conference room.

After leaving the meeting room, the three of them headed straight to the Three Pools Mirroring the Moon.

On the way, Xu Mu contacted Lingling by phone and asked, "Lingling, is there any progress on the Eagle Red Grass?"

When he left the pharmacy and was on his way to the Magic Association, he had already called Lingling to prepare some eagle red grass.

Whether it is to protect the black snake or something else, the plague needs to be solved.

"Someone is trying to stop me from collecting red eagle grass. I posted several commissions on the local hunter website for collecting red eagle grass. Almost all of them were quickly taken. I hacked into the system and found that all these tasks were taken by the same person." Lingling said on the other end of the phone.

"Is there any other way to get Eagle Red Grass?" Xu Mu frowned and continued to ask.

"Yes, I have also posted a task to find the eagle red grass on the online platform of a nearby city. A hunter has already accepted the task. It is estimated that it will take at least one day to prepare all the eagle red grass." Lingling continued.

"As long as I can collect the eagle red grass, that's fine."

Xu Mu breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Luo Mian had not yet extended his hand to other cities, otherwise it would be troublesome.

However, he had to rely on a student to solve a plague. Is this fair? After he got the eagle red grass and researched the antidote, he would blackmail Zhu Meng.

He was not greedy and would be satisfied as long as he could get all the property of the congressman Luo Mian.

At that time, he will let the Inquisition announce that the hero who solved the plague was a student of Mingzhu Academy. He can use this opportunity to promote the school, and he can also blackmail Dean Xiao!
Together with the local officials in Hangzhou, we received compensation from three parties in one deal, it was a huge profit!

Lingling asked doubtfully on the phone: "By the way, how did you guess that the source of the plague was a problem with the blood agent?"

"Listen to what others are saying."

Xu Mu made up a story. "Last night on the roadside, I heard someone talking about plague patients, saying that their symptoms were very similar to those of people who were bitten by rats before. I asked that person and learned that eagle red grass might be able to detoxify."

"Then I went to the pharmacy to buy some hawk's red grass, but I found that all the hawk's red grass in the city had been bought up. You all know what happened next."

……

"Why are there so many people?"

After Xu Mu hung up the call with Lingling, he hurried to catch up with Tang Yue and the other person, who were hiding behind a big tree.

He walked forward and was surprised to find that the West Lake had been blocked. Many wizards had gathered by the lake. From a distance, their number seemed as numerous as stars.

The cultivation base of these mages is not high, they are all beginner and intermediate mages, and they all look very young. Although their cultivation base is not high, the problem is that there are too many of them!
With just a quick glance, one can find that there are at least a hundred powerful wizards gathered here. These are not the students in school who can't even cast magic properly.

"Zhu Meng, this guy, actually transferred so many mages to West Lake to guard the black snake." Tang Yue frowned, with a worried look on her face. With more than a hundred mages, how could the three of them break in, put the totem black snake into the totem bead, and then fight their way out and transfer it to a safe place?
This was not the first time that Zhu Meng had dealt with the Totem Black Snake. Although he had not received any tip-off from Luo Mian, he had heard that the Totem Black Snake had super perception abilities.

In order to prevent the Tang family from disrupting tomorrow's beheading plan, he chose relatively weaker and more numerous intermediate and primary level mages to guard the West Lake.

There are many high-level wizards twenty kilometers away from West Lake.

"It would be great if these were all members of the Black Church."

Xu Mu sighed lightly. If they were all members of the Black Vatican, he could use his magic without any worries. A single Silent Thunder could kill many people.

"What should we do?" Mo Fan asked doubtfully.

"You go and divert their attention. I will take the opportunity to sneak in using Shadow Escape and put the Totem Black Snake into the Totem Bead." Tang Yue replied.

"Of course, we can, but these people won't kill us, right?"

Mo Fan felt somewhat uneasy. If he had known that he would have to face more than a hundred mages, he would never have agreed to help Teacher Tang Yue even if he was beaten to death.

"Don't worry, the most they can do is seriously injure you." Tang Yue shook her head and comforted him.

"Seriously injured!"

Mo Fan opened his eyes wide. He didn’t want to be seriously injured. Was there no safer way to take the Totem Black Snake away?
Mo Fan turned his head and looked at Xu Mu, and asked anxiously: "Muzi, do you have any good ideas?"

"When I encounter such a difficult problem, I usually solve it with force." Xu Mu said sincerely.

"Even if the two of us are high-level mages and can rush in quickly, it will attract the attention of others, and then other high-level mages will be attracted here." Tang Yue said.

If a head-on confrontation fails to solve the problem in a short period of time and other high-level wizards are attracted, even if the Totem Black Snake is successfully put into the Totem Bead, it will probably be difficult to evacuate safely.

"Teacher Tang Yue, I have a question."

"If we move the Totem Black Snake away and get caught again when we come back, will Zhu Meng kill us?" Xu Mu looked at Tang Yue with a puzzled look on his face.

"No." Tang Yue shook her head and said.

Although the blood of the Totem Black Snake has a certain resistance effect to the plague, it cannot fundamentally solve the problem of the plague, and cannot prove that the Totem Black Snake is the source of the plague.

As long as this cannot be proven, the struggle between them is just a factional struggle. Zhu Meng only has the support of the people and does not have the courage to kill people. At most, he will just detain them for a period of time.

"That's good."

Xu Mu felt relieved. Since Zhu Meng couldn't do anything to them if they were caught, what was there to be afraid of? Just take action!
However, for safety reasons, he still sent a message for help to Dean Xiao, telling him to find Emperor Xiao Gao if there was any risk!

After completing all the preparations, he turned to Tang Yue and Mo Fan and said solemnly: "I will deal with these mages, and the two of you will be responsible for taking the Totem Black Snake away safely."

"you alone?"

Tang Yue was a little surprised. Although she knew that Xu Mu's strength far exceeded hers, when facing the siege of hundreds of mages, even a high-level mage could not defeat a hundred hands with two fists.

The physical fitness of a high-level wizard is only equivalent to that of a slave. If he is hit by a spell, even if it is only a low-level spell, he is very likely to be seriously injured.

"I'm enough alone." Xu Mu nodded.
