Mo Fan went closer to inspect the scar. It also had six fingers, and they were closer to one another.
They had found a second scar. It was up to Lingling to deduce whether they were left by the red demon. It might serve as an important clue for them to locate the creature.
“Hey, look at this!” Lu Zhengxin seemed to have discovered something else.
Mo Fan went over and saw a black metal shard sticking into the water tank of an office building.
The water tank had been out of service for many years. The metal shard was stuck deep inside the tank. It was unlikely ordinary people could pull the shard out. They would have to tear down the water tank first.
The workers of the office building might have ignored the metal shard, since it did not really affect them.
The metal shard was surprisingly large. Mo Fan realized it was the door of a car after taking a closer look at it.
He wondered how fast the door had been traveling to be stuck so deep into the water tank.
“It was imbued with Space Magic,” Lu Zhengxin said confidently.
Mo Fan turned around and stared at Lu Zhengxin.
“Why are you looking at me like that? Don’t you know what my main field of study at university is?” Lu Zhengxin exclaimed.
“Do you specialize in dog’s noses?” Mo Fan asked.
“Magic Substance Theories! Do you think I’d be helping you on this boring task if you hadn’t saved my car?” Lu Zhengxin scolded him.
Magic Substance Theories…
Mo Fan remembered it was a special course at the Pearl Institute. It was the forensics of the magic world!
He had no idea Lu Zhengxin was an alumnus of his university!
“The Aura is extremely weak. It has been here for at least three to four years,” Lu Zhengxin went on.
Mo Fan nodded.
Senior Hunter Leng’s Tertiary Element was the Space Element. If he had fought the red demon in this area, this door imbued with the Space Element must be his doing!
“Can you smell traces of blood here?” Mo Fan asked.
“I’m not a dog!” Lu Zhengxin snarled, like his ego was hurting.
“Can you find old traces of blood? They are extremely important to us,” Mo Fan quickly altered his choice of words.
“Let me activate my vision,” Lu Zhengxin replied.
Mo Fan was puzzled.
Lu Zhengxin was Casting a spell. A Star Pattern of the Light Element appeared under his feet. The Star Pattern transformed into a Star Constellation that Mo Fan had never seen before.
The Star Constellation rose above Lu Zhengxin like two brilliant orbs of light.
The blue orbs slowly shrank down, before flying into Lu Zhengxin’s eyes.
Lu Zhengxin’s eyes started glowing, emitting a strange blue light. The objects he was looking at had the same glow now.
“Terra Stone Dog Eyes?” Mo Fan exclaimed. He did not expect Lu Zhengxin to have such a special ability.
{TL Note: Terra Stone is an end-game material in Dungeon Fighter Online.}
It felt like two search lamps with a high chance of finding rare materials had been installed in Lu Zhengxin’s eyes. He was walking around like a cyborg.
The ability was consuming a huge amount of his energy. His expression was changing constantly. He immediately closed his eyes to exit from the special state after they started to hurt.
“It’s called the Hunter’s Eye, a unique ability passed down by the ancestors of the Lu Clan. It allows us to see magical residues, blood, special substances, and lingering Auras,” Lu Zhengxin declared proudly.
No matter how impressive Mo Fan was, he clearly lacked the Lu Clan’s ability. He was like a younger brother when it came to searching for clues!
“That’s very impressive, chicken cutlet brother!” Mo Fan raised his thumb to Lu Zhengxin. “So, did you find any traces of blood?”
“It’s under the water across this street. There was blood everywhere… I feel sorry for your senior,” Lu Zhengxin sighed.
“What do you mean?”
“He lost a lot of blood. The creature must have torn open one of his organs. He left a trail of blood all the way to that warehouse!” Lu Zhengxin pointed at a building in the distance.
Mo Fan’s heart sank.
Luckily, Lingling was not around. She would suffer a mental breakdown again if she had heard his words.
“Did the creature bleed?” Mo Fan asked.
Senior Hunter Leng’s blood was not going to help them. They had to find the red demon’s blood!
“A little, it’s mixed with your senior’s blood,” Lu Zhengxin confirmed.
“Can you collect it?” Mo Fan asked.
“Brother, the street is drowned. If it weren’t for me, you would not have found a single trace of blood. Besides, it’s already been dried, washed, and drowned in seawater for a long time!” Lu Zhengxin answered.
“My friend has a lot of cars. He has a limited edition Koenigsegg Jesko. He keeps bragging about it. I’ll ask him to give it to you,” Mo Fan said.
“Are you serious? There are only three of them in the world! Who is he? How did he get it?” Lu Zhengxin blurted out in surprise.
Lu Zhengxin was a car lover. He was obsessed with rare cars.
“That’s none of your business. Just get your hands dirty and get me the creature’s blood. I promise I’ll deliver the car to you in seven days. It’s as good as new. He didn’t have a chance to drive it due to some special circumstances,” Mo Fan said.
“Are you sure you are not lying to me?” Lu Zhengxin said.
“Who do you think I am? Shouldn’t you know better? Did I lie when I said I was going to kill the Enforcer of the Beiyu Enforcement Union, Lu Zhantian, who was from your clan? Why would I go back on my words about a car?” Mo Fan scoffed.
Lu Zhengxin pulled a long face.
What the f**k is he on about? How can he talk about killing my cousin so blatantly?
That being said, it did convince Lu Zhengxin that Mo Fan was a man of his word.
“Don’t worry, I only hold the debtors responsible when I settle my debts. Your cousin and Lu Yilin tried to kill me, so I didn’t go easy on them, but you and I are alumni of the same school!” Mo Fan patted Lu Zhengxin on the shoulder.
“Fine, I wasn’t close with those two either, but you shouldn’t bring the topic up again. I’ll collect the blood samples for you, but you have three days to bring me the car!” Lu Zhengxin said.
“Deal!” Mo Fan nodded.
The car Mo Fan mentioned obviously belonged to Zhao Manyan.
Lu Zhengxin’s collection was petty compared to Zhao Manyan, who had an entire basement full of luxurious cars.
The limited-edition Jesko was not that expensive, either. The company had produced three limited-edition Jesko after the Zhao Family invested in the company. Zhao Manyan took one of them.
Zhao Manyan did not want Zhao Youqian to know his whereabouts, so he had no intention of driving the car. Zhao Manyan had even offered Mo Fan the car, but he was too busy to claim it.
Mo Fan did not think twice before giving it to Lu Zhengxin.
Zhao Youqian would not be suspicious if Lu Zhengxin was driving the car. After all, everyone in the Magic City knew Lu Zhengxin was a car maniac.
Compared to the reward of a Universe Vein, a car rotting in a garage was just a toy in Mo Fan’s eyes!
