My Virtual Immortal Girlfriend Came to Life from a Mobile Game-Chapter 67 – I have more here

Lin Lingling followed the direction of the lightning strike.

She finally found the charred corpse of a wolf demon in a five-meter-wide crater.

"The jawbone is shattered. Judging by the fracture, it was likely struck by a blunt weapon. The boss's weapon might be a hammer or a club."

Since a boss had already appeared and there was no scent of human blood, it meant the three missing people were safe. So Lin Lingling studied the wolf demon's corpse without any burden.

She bent down to pick up a piece of wolf bone, which crumbled into bone powder with a light squeeze of her fingers. Her pupils shrank as she murmured, "To wield thunder attacks with such immense power, could it be... a General-level?"

But how many General-levels are there in the world?

Lin Lingling was shocked by her own judgment.

Currently, Demon Slayers are classified into four levels: White, Master, Soldier, and General.

Someone like her, at the White level, could only be considered a civilian Demon Slayer.

Civilian Demon Slayers have relevant endorsements but can't be officially recognized as personnel.

In essence, they're similar to bounty hunters.

The advantage is that they aren't obligated to take on missions; they can choose tasks at will and still earn considerable rewards for slaying demons. However, if they die from overestimating themselves, no one will collect their bodies.

Lin Lingling relied on her demon-slaying income to pay for her tuition.

Otherwise, who knows which sweatshop she'd be screwing bolts in right now.

Her ultimate goal was to become an officially recognized Demon Slayer, as only then could she witness a broader world.

"Huh, what's this?"

Lin Lingling bent down to pick up a piece of yellow paper.

The yellow paper was less than three meters from the wolf's corpse, with obscure characters drawn in cinnabar. She could faintly sense a thunderous energy brewing within.

Realizing this, her hand trembled instinctively.

If she were a demon, she would likely have been consumed by the talisman's thunder energy by now.

"It seems the thunder just now was triggered by this talisman."

Lin Lingling gasped.

If that boss could unleash such a powerful attack just by using a talisman...

It was unheard of, unseen.

At least in her memory, the strongest Demon Slayer in the Hua region couldn't do that.

Who exactly was this person?

She calmed her mind and followed the tracks.

She eventually found a rundown forest ranger's cabin near the wolf demon's corpse.

...

"Why hasn't the wolf come yet?"

"Brother Huaian, how can you say that?" Su Xingchen's face turned pale at Chen Huaian's words.

The cameraman was also speechless, "What, are you looking forward to it?"

"Not really, but according to the law of conservation of safety, if we're safe, it means another group is in danger." Chen Huaian stroked his chin and said calmly, "With two wolves that big, can Director Zhang and the others really be safe hiding in the van?"

Hearing Chen Huaian's words, fear appeared on Su Xingchen and the cameraman's faces.

Yeah, once the people by the van are done for, won't it be their turn next?

In this vast mountain, how could they possibly escape the pursuit of beasts?

Just then,

Creak—!

The door of the small wooden house suddenly opened.

Moonlight first peeked in, casting a huge shadow on the wall.

But the shadow wasn't of a wolf; it was of a girl.

Lin Lingling, bathed in moonlight, observed the three people in the cabin, each with a different expression.

Two men and one woman: a bald guy, an innocent-looking girl, and a burly man carrying a camera.

These people didn't seem like experts, nor did they have the internal energy fluctuations of one.

So the boss wasn't here?

A hint of doubt flashed in her eyes.

Could the boss have already left?

As expected of a General-level boss, coming and going without a trace, someone like her couldn't detect them at all.

"Little sister, there are wolves outside. Come in and take shelter."

Seeing that the newcomer was a cute schoolgirl, Su Xingchen breathed a sigh of relief.

Though she didn't know why the girl had a long spear on her back.

Cosplay?

Anyway, as long as it wasn't a wolf.

"The wolf is already dead." Lin Lingling, with the long spear on her back still dripping blood, maintained a calm expression but spoke in a frightened tone, "Oh my, I was climbing the mountain when I saw a wolf's corpse and ran here in a panic. So scary."

Su Xingchen: "..."

She suddenly found the little sister quite suspicious too.

Chen Huaian's gaze fell on Lin Lingling, scanning her from head to toe, finally fixing on her hand. He blinked, "Little sister, where did you find that talisman?"

Lin Lingling glanced at Chen Huaian, then looked again, and again, finally staring intently.

Damn, he's so handsome.

She hadn't noticed when she first came in, but now, looking closely, she wished she could weld her eyes onto him.

It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from ".

But as a dignified Demon Slayer, Lin Lingling forcibly suppressed her inner urge to admire the handsome guy, blushing as she coughed twice, "What talisman? I don't know what you're talking about. That's just my keychain."

As a Demon Slayer, sometimes it's unavoidable to be exposed to the public eye.

In the past, when there were fewer monsters, they required complete anonymity or forced witnesses to sign confidentiality agreements.

Later, relevant departments even developed potions to erase memories of certain periods.

But now, with more and more monsters, it's gradually becoming impossible to hide. The potion ingredients are expensive, and it's not feasible to give a bunch of witnesses a drink every mission. So, except for particularly fantastical-looking monsters, those resembling beasts are uniformly explained as mutated beasts from drinking seawater.

And Demon Slayers publicly claim to be martial artists trained from a young age.

Sometimes, when acting with guards, they're even referred to as special enforcers.

In any case, they can't reveal they're Demon Slayers!

They can't expose that monsters are gradually appearing in this world!

Nor can they let ordinary people come into contact with supernatural-related items!

So, faced with Chen Huaian's question, Lin Lingling's instinctive reaction was to cover it up.

However...

"But, shouldn't this talisman be mine?"

To prove his point, Chen Huaian reached into the inner pocket of his jacket and pulled out a crumpled Thunderfire Talisman. He thought to himself, damn keychain, who would've thought this girl, looking so fair and cute, would lie so easily.

Lin Lingling: "?"

"Look, I have more here."

Chen Huaian pulled out five more.

Lin Lingling: "???"
