Chapter 79 Outer City Wall

Clock Tower Magic Association——

"Dead?" Xu Mu widened his eyes and looked at the association staff in disbelief.

"Yes, Master Ning Moyuan was attacked by the 'Towering Bone Minister' while on a mission yesterday and unfortunately died. His body has been cremated and his ashes have been taken away by his family." The staff nodded and said in a low voice.

Ning Moyuan is the name of the student of Dean Xiao who discovered the tomb of the dead.

After arriving at the ancient capital, the first thing Xu Mu and his friends did was to go to the Magic Association to find Ning Moyuan in order to obtain detailed information about the Tomb of the Undead.

When I asked the staff, I got the news that Ning Moyuan had died yesterday.

"Do you know where the tomb of the dead is?" Ding Yumian blinked and turned to Xu Mu to ask.

"I only know that it is somewhere near the Qinling Mountains." Xu Mu shook his head.

Dean Xiao only gave him a rough description of the approximate location, and he would need to come to the ancient capital to ask Ning Moyuan about the specific location.

But Ning Moyuan is dead, and now no one knows the location of the grave.

"Where does Ning Moyuan's family live?" Lingling looked at the staff and asked.

"Sorry, due to association regulations, we cannot disclose the mage's family information without permission." The staff shook his head.

……

After coming out of the Magic Association, the night gradually darkened.

"Ning Moyuan's family may know the location of the tomb." Lingling thought seriously for a while, then said seriously.

"But the staff of the Magic Association will not tell us Ning Moyuan's family information. Do we have to look for them ourselves?" Yu Qiuyue asked doubtfully.

Although the population of the ancient capital is not as large as that of the Magic City, it still has millions of people, and they don't have any clues at hand. Finding Ning Moyuan's family among so many people is even more difficult than finding a needle in a haystack.

"The Hunter Alliance might have Ning Moyuan's information. Let's go ask them." Lingling said.

"Will the alliance tell us outsiders?" Yu Qiuyue asked puzzledly.

The Magic Association and the Hunter's Alliance are essentially the same. One is unwilling to disclose information about the mages' families, and the other will not disclose information about the hunters' families.

"You three are outsiders, but I am not!" Lingling snorted. As a master hunter, how could she be classified as an outsider?
Yu Qiuyue and Ding Yumian were both a little confused and didn't understand why Lingling was not an outsider, but there was nothing they could do at the moment. They could only follow Lingling to the Hunter Alliance, hoping to find information about Ning Moyuan.

Drum Tower Hunter Alliance——

In the spacious hall, the four of them quickly locked onto a staff member. Lingling displayed her Master Hunter Badge without hesitation and stated her purpose directly.

"You want to check the information of senior hunter Ning Moyuan? Please wait a moment, we will handle it for you immediately."

Seeing the Hunter Master Medal in Lingling's hand, the lady at the front desk didn't say anything extra and directly started to look up Ning Moyuan's relevant information for Xu Mu and the other three.

From the beginning to the end, the young lady never doubted the authenticity of Lingling's identity as a master hunter because of her young age.

The Hunter Medal is the same as a magic tool, it must be imprinted in the soul, this kind of thing cannot be faked. "Your little loli partner is actually a hunter master?" Yu Qiuyue pulled Xu Mu's sleeve curiously.

"Did she get the medal on her own merit? Or was it brought to her by another hunter boss?"

"It's all due to her own strength!" Xu Mu continued, "It's a pity that Lingling is too young and can't awaken her magic yet, otherwise she would have become a respected female hunter king now."

"Hunter Queen? Is she really that powerful?" Yu Qiuyue widened her eyes, looking at Lingling in disbelief as she looked proud and held her head high.

This little Loli is so powerful?
"If she wasn't powerful, I wouldn't have brought her to this land of the dead." Xu Mu shrugged.

After all, this is the kingdom of the undead. He knows of no less than eight monarch-level creatures, and each one is not easy to deal with.

The number of general-level and commander-level monsters is countless. He is just a mid-level wizard and can handle two or three small commanders, but if the number increases, he will have to choose to escape.

That is, Lingling possesses many life-saving magic tools and weapons, and has rich experience as a hunter, able to deal with various emergencies.

Otherwise, Xu Mu would never risk bringing a child to such a dangerous place.

"We have found the information of senior hunter Ning Moyuan!" The lady at the front desk excitedly told everyone, and then handed the information she had found to the four people for review.

Ning Moyuan's parents were both skilled and experienced hunters, but unfortunately, they lost their lives in a sudden undead riot in their early years.

Ning Moyuan and his sister Ning Wanxing were the only ones left at home.

After Ning Moyuan was unfortunately killed yesterday, his sister Ning Wanxing also became an orphan without any support.

"It's already late today. Let's go look for Ning Wanxing tomorrow." Lingling said.

At night, the outskirts of the ancient capital are full of dangers and the undead are rampant. Even the high-level wizards in the group may encounter unexpected events if they are not careful.

Furthermore, once night falls, the military magician will strictly control the entry and exit of the city. People outside the city cannot enter, and people inside the city cannot leave.

It would be useless even if Ning Wanxing was found now, especially so late at night. She had just lost her only relative yesterday, and she must be immersed in grief and asleep at this moment.

Everyone nodded, and after coming out of the Hunter Alliance, they went to the hotel they had booked in advance as planned.

"I'm going out for a walk." After arriving at the hotel, Xu Mu did not rush to sleep. He simply greeted the three women and then walked towards the outer city wall.

The ancient capital of Xi'an consists of two city walls, the inner and outer city walls. The inner city wall is also called the ancient city wall, and the area it surrounds is basically the city center.

Although Wild Goose Pagoda, Forest of Steles and other places outside the ancient city wall are also part of the urban area, they focus more on the display of cultural landscapes, attracting many tourists.

The outer city wall is magnificent and its scale far exceeds that of the inner city wall. It stands tall like a huge iron barrel, tightly guarding the entire city in its arms and building an indestructible line of defense.

It is precisely because of the existence of this indestructible outer city wall that the people of the ancient capital are kept away from the threat of the undead, allowing them to enjoy a free life in peace.

The outer city wall can be climbed, but not everyone can. Xu Mu came to the top of the city wall as an intermediate hunter.

Walking on the endless city wall, he found that the number of guards at night was more than ten times that of the day.
