Chapter 40 The Nine-Headed Spirit Witch
Chapter 40 The Nine-Headed Spirit Witch
Zhang Lingyun shook his head, remembering Lan Ruoxi's 60 [Magic Points], and quickly said:
"I wouldn't dare compare, Master is too amazing."
"Does Master know about this?"
"She's so busy all day long, I wouldn't dare bother her."
Bai Lu thought for a moment and said:
"Then come to the school tomorrow, and I'll take you to see Master. This is such a big matter; she has to know about it."
"Alright."
Zhang Lingyun agreed, then quickly added, "But I have a problem now, and I need your help right away, senior."
"Speak, what is it?"
Zhang Lingyun then explained her problem:
He wanted to recruit a high-quality "spirit messenger," but all the applicants were unqualified.
Meanwhile, those in higher positions nearby considered the third-ring [Summoning] skill too low and disdained to apply.
As he spoke, he pointed his phone at the spatial rift in front of him, letting Bai Lu see the job application scene in the spirit world.
Bai Lu was completely stunned when she saw it.
Bai Lu's head was wrapped in the quilt, and her two well-built, wheat-colored legs were kicking wildly on the bed:
"So many spirit beings are waiting to apply to be your messenger? That's astonishing!"
Zhang Lingyun chuckled inwardly.
These people were actually fighting, but their battle was interrupted by his summoning spell.
However, since his senior sister had misunderstood, he was too lazy to explain further.
"Senior, what should we do now?"
Zhang Lingyun pointed the camera at the group of people who looked like leaders.
There were witches and sorcerers there, all of them arrogant and haughty.
It's obvious at a glance that they must have been important figures when they were alive.
Bai Lu kicked her long legs a few more times in surprise, her voice excited:
"If these could be summoned, they would be at least [Intermediate-level Summoned Creatures]! Not to mention Ding Shuangshuang, even Huang Ku could put up a fight!"
"But they are unwilling to apply," Zhang Lingyun said, revealing the crux of the problem.
Bai Lu pondered for a few seconds and then said:
"Then you can demonstrate your potential and use that potential to entice them."
Zhang Lingyun's eyes lit up, and he instantly understood.
This is just like a boss making empty promises at a job fair.
They boast about the company's potential, hoping employees will share both the good times and the bad, and that everyone will become an original shareholder when the company goes public.
He was extremely familiar with this sales pitch—
In his previous life, his boss kept making empty promises to him, which almost gave him a stomach ulcer.
Zhang Lingyun thought carefully for a moment, then took out the [Awakening Card] and said through the spatial rift in the spirit world, "This is my confidence. As long as you form a contract with me, your future is limitless."
In an instant, all the spirit beings were stunned.
They could clearly see that there was a shocking number on that [Awakening Card].
The scene instantly erupted in excitement, and the leaders who had been so aloof just moments before all dropped their airs.
They all dropped their airs and crowded in front of the spatial rift, vying to promote themselves.
"Pick me, pick me! I can accept 996 (working from 9 am to 9 pm, 6 days a week) and I don't get paid for overtime."
"I don't want any pay, I just want a job!"
"I'm willing to pay for everything; I'll do anything you ask!"
There was also a witch from the "Enchantment School" who seductively offered herself up:
"Master, I can be your personal secretary, and I can even help you rest at night~"
Xia Youran frowned and lightly tugged at Zhang Lingyun.
The leaders, who had just reached a truce, soon resumed their fighting.
The scene instantly descended into chaos, even more intense than the previous battles.
Seeing the spirit creatures fall into chaos once again, the three onlookers were speechless.
Just then, the earth of the [Spirit Realm] suddenly trembled.
A giant beast resembling a rhinoceros burst forth from the forest.
Its body moved like a mountain, heading straight for the spatial rift.
The leaders of the [Spirit Realm] who were just fighting over the prize were all stomped into the ground by its enormous paws.
This colossal creature brought its single eye close to the spatial rift.
After seeing the ring number on the card, his expression instantly became excited.
"Young warlock, I have high hopes for your future. Although the position of messenger is somewhat lowly, I am still willing to invest in you."
As soon as he finished speaking, the giant beast bit its own thick foot hard and stretched its bleeding foot toward the spatial rift.
Zhang Lingyun stared in awe at the colossal beast that resembled a mountain.
This thing is comparable to a mobile war fortress; using it as a messenger is far too extravagant.
But since the other party volunteered himself, he had no reason to refuse.
Having such a messenger will make future transactions much safer.
Moreover, enemies like Ding Shuangshuang and Huang Ku no longer dare to provoke him.
Bai Lu was very satisfied and quickly reminded him:
"Quickly bite your finger and form a blood pact with it!"
Zhang Lingyun did as instructed, biting her index finger and extending the fingertip into the spatial rift.
Unexpected events can occur suddenly.
The sky in the Spirit Realm suddenly darkened, as if the sun had been swallowed by endless darkness.
The next second, nine mournful cries echoed through the sky, and a huge creature descended from the heavens.
That thing was even more terrifying in size; with just one swipe of its claw, it crushed the mountain-like behemoth to pieces.
Zhang Lingyun was deeply shocked and looked up through the crack in the spatial rift.
Above the gray-green sky stood a giant bird-like creature, its body so large that it covered half the sky.
It has nine necks held high, and at the top of each neck is a beautiful head.
Nine enormous heads, as large as mountains, crowded together into the spatial rift, carefully examining the [Awakening Card].
Then, its enormous body began to shrink, eventually transforming into the appearance of an ordinary human.
On her rounded shoulders was the head of a beautiful woman.
With blond hair and blue eyes, exquisite features, and a noble air, he carried the air of someone in a superior position.
But in her left hand, she held eight other beautiful heads, woven together with her long hair like a plate of garlic.
They have very different styles, expressions, and even ethnicities, each with their own unique charm.
The blonde beauty's head spoke in confusion:
"Young warlock, I can see that your [Awakening Card] has a very high ring number, but why can't I see the corresponding school and description?"
At this moment, Xia Youran was so frightened that she trembled all over and clung tightly to Zhang Lingyun's arm.
Bai Lu's body tensed up, and she subconsciously squeezed her legs together.
Zhang Lingyun coughed lightly, forcibly calming himself down and responding with feigned composure:
"I'm sorry, the information on the card is always there, but only the selected person can see it."
The nine beautiful heads looked at each other and whispered among themselves.
Some people say he's deliberately trying to be mysterious.
Some people say this card is truly magical.
Some people complained that his [Summon Spirit Messenger] level was too low.
Some say that a small breeze can start a great thing, and we should be optimistic about its future.
There are also those who are simply attracted to his looks, thinking Zhang Lingyun is handsome and wanting to get closer to him.
Finally, the most magnificent head replaced the blond head.
She has long black hair and wheat-colored skin.
Wearing a headdress with an eagle and a snake, she has the feel of an Egyptian queen.
The blond head moved aside and automatically hung in the left hand.
The Egyptian beauty's head defied all opposition and made up her mind:
"Young warlock, your [Awakening Card] has certainly piqued my interest. I'm willing to take a gamble and invest in your future. Let's forge a pact now."
