Old birds who have performed the Three-Fork Sword mission know that when participating in the Three-Fork Sword hunting mission, you must wear an old robe. The older the better. If the robe is still very cheap, that would be even better.
On the one hand, wearing an old robe many times can bring you good luck, because ‘the old robe can always take its owner home’. This statement has no magical truth and belongs to the category of mysticism; on the other hand, the old robe is cheap, and when you step into the fire dragon cesspool or fall into the smelly quagmire, you will be particularly grateful for your choice to wear an old robe to perform tasks.
There are no old birds in the Yujue Hunting Team.
So as soon as we met, the review office gave a warning.
Zheng Qing dared to point at the gentleman's red card and swear that he would never look at the tall and thin chatterbox with his "admiration" look, but he didn't know where his confusing self-confidence came from.
"Shut up! If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a mute!"
Behind the curved desk, the real owner of the office cursed in a low voice, turned to look at the slightly cramped young witch, frowned slightly: "Newcomer Hunting Team? Although Lewis usually speaks as if he is farting, there is one thing he said right... It is best to wear an old robe when performing a mission..."
Zheng Qing carefully looked at the inspector behind the desk. He looked about thirty years old and wore a half-new black robe. His hairline was a little taller, his eyes were very big, and his whole body exuded a scent of "I'm very irritable now, don't mess with me." His elbow was resting on the table, and there were a few thin pieces of mulberry paper pressing under his elbow, and a pencil was quickly turning between his fingers.
The young public-funded student's eyes stayed on the pencil for several seconds. In my impression, the wizard rarely used this kind of stationery. This seemed to be the first time he saw someone using a pencil after entering the wizard world.
"The name of your hunting team?" the examiner behind the desk asked after drawing a few strokes on mulberry paper.
"Yuzui, Yuzui Hunting Team..." Zheng Qing's eyes were wandering on the table, noticing that the examiner's name tag was blocked by some messy documents, so he finally used another title: "…Mr. Inspector."
"Yuzui? Which Yuzui! The hunting team in the entire league has no ten or eight of them!"
The pencil in the examiner's hand hit the table with a "dongdong" and looked a little impatient: "Don't waste time, there are seventeen hunting teams behind you waiting for review... Take your badges... You are all second graders, give me the student card together!"
Zheng Qing had no idea of controversy and honestly submitted relevant materials.
However, a casual man drinking tea next to him started to make a fuss.
"etc!"
The archives office employee named Lewis put down the teacup in his hand, stretched out his fingers, and lit the young witches in front of him in surprise: "The school actually sent a second-grade student hunting team to participate in this hunting? And it was a hunting team that had just been promoted... Even if they successfully registered, it would be too casual... My twelve-year-old nephew is more experienced in hunting than theirs!"
This is suspected of provocation.
The fortune teller of the Yusin Hunting Team stood up immediately, holding the crystal ball, proving the strength of the hunting team: "First of all, you don't have a nephew, Mr. Lewis of the Archives Management Office."
“Second,”
Fatty Xin, the mouthpiece of the hunting team, prefers to list facts like writing a press release: "Even if you really have a twelve-year-old nephew, you can't have more experience in hunting than Yusin Hunting Team. Because our hunting team has participated in two campus cups, won the Best Newcomer Hunting Team, entered the campus cup finals, explored fantasy dreams, and participated in the Black Prison Battle... According to statistics from "The Road to the Glorious Hunting Team", the hunters of Yusin Hunting Team are the youngest hunters participating in the Black Prison Battle, no one."
"Finally..." Dylan just said two words, but was stolen by Lewis.
"Finally, does your hunting team have registered wizards?" He squinted his eyes, looked at the five young hunters in the room, and finally shook his head: "There is no sign of registration, none of them."
This is indeed the biggest flaw of the Yusin Hunting Team at present.
Dongdong!
The examiner turned the pencil again and knocked the table with the pencil's butt, stopping the little debate in front of him that was slightly noisy.
"Okay, it's all quiet!"
He was not loud, but with a hint of pressure, he easily controlled the situation: "This time, the Yusin Hunting Team needed to track down an unknown black wizard. There was information that he had been active in the area of the First University for a long time. The school had destroyed his illegal laboratory on the edge of the Silent Forest... According to the information provided by the fortune teller, it can be judged that his strength will not exceed that of the mid-level registered wizard, but because he is proficient in alchemy, he may carry several transformed magic servants, mainly werewolf, vampires and ogres, and there may be a small number of gargoyles."
After reading this, the examiner looked up and glanced at the captain of the Yusin Hunting Team: "Your hunting team has a rich resume, but you have never hunted the black wizard... Do you know where to start and how to investigate the traces of the black wizard?"
Zheng Qing hesitated for a few seconds.
"That laboratory that was smashed from the school?"
He analyzed according to the most unmissable plan: "Since he has been active in the Silent Forest, I plan to go back to school later to collect traces of the black wizard's activities, and then use divination magic to track it..."
Next to it, the chuckling of the witch in the Archives Office came.
The examiner glanced at him in dissatisfaction.
"Do you have any insight?" he asked back.
Lewis, the tall and thin witch, seemed to be caught off guard, coughed lightly, and thought for a while while drinking tea before nodding in a very small way: "Is it natural that it's all cliché... Just pay attention to all unusual phenomena."
Zheng Qing tried hard to curb his urge to roll his eyes.
"Is this the advice of a veteran veteran to the rookie hunting team?" He tried his best to be kinder, but he still couldn't control his urge to complain: "It's really useful... Jin Yu's good words! I mean, are there any more specific strategies?"
This time, Lewis lowered his head and started drinking tea with concentration, pretending not to hear the young wizard's question.
The examiner gave some specific suggestions.
"The near where the black wizard appears is often accompanied by frequent murders, nightmares, epidemics, and even large-scale deaths of plants and trees, anxiety and restlessness of birds, animals, insects and fish... You can understand it as a kind of 'significance'."
While he was drawing quickly on the review materials, he taught relevant experiences without raising his head: "The school should not have taught you this knowledge, because such signs usually appear in the area where Bai Ding lives, which reflects the research preferences of the black wizard to a certain extent... You must pay attention to the 'pollution' caused by the black wizard, and must be handled cleanly!"
