The crackling sound of the joints echoed in this small tavern.
The air seemed to be burning, emitting a burning breath. The lightworms climbing onto the ceiling tried their best to curl up, put away their belly, and refused to sprinkle any light.
But this did not make the house dimmed.
Because while the insects were shutting down, the magic torches that were originally inserted on the four walls of the tavern were burning, replacing the glowing fruits and insects, and instead illuminating the room even brighter.
The center of the fire was covered by the fire, Varis, who was originally chubby and smiling, had changed his appearance. His body was nearly doubled with the brittle sound of the joints, and his head almost poked into the ceiling. His skin, which was chapped due to the rapid change in body shape, turned into pieces of hard armor with a horny luster. Blood flowed between the gaps of the hard armor, like a stream of hot magma. On his originally bare head, there were slender white tentacles, like a bunch of bright silver hair.
Unfortunately, Mr. Varis does not seem to have everyone's interest in appreciating his transformation.
boom!
Accompanied by a strong wind, Varis, who was nearly a short giant, broke through the walls of the Cherry Blossom Tavern and fled out wildly. Although he did not retain much reason now, out of the awe of the wizard in the North District and the instincts derived from creatures, he was crazily warning him how terrible the witch standing in the stairwell was.
"Damn!"
Zheng Qing cursed in a low voice, his eyes swept across the other people who were restrained by his companions, and made a quick decision: "Give me a sin, target Varis! Bofu's battle formation is ready!"
The long sword in Blue Bird turned around, and his feet were slightly lowered, and his figure had already floated outward. Dylan was faster than him, like a phantom, suddenly disappeared from everyone's sight.
Then there were Xin, Zheng Qing, Xiao Xiao, and the five hunters followed the strong wind and rushed out of the tavern like a hurricane. The whole process was in the blink of an eye, and some of the guests who were huddled in the corner had not even come back to their senses.
"It's really... I don't care about other people's property at all."
The great wizard from the North District who was standing in the stairwell sighed heavily and looked at the broken wall of his house with some heartache: "...I don't know if the Three-fork Sword can give some compensation."
"The Great Sage."
The witch in the North District who had just handed over the materials bowed slightly, and his speech was fast but orderly reported: "Parking team 1, 2, and 7 are carrying out missions in the silent forest, team 3 and 5 are patrolling other blocks in Beta Town, team 4, 6, and 8 are on vacation, and there are only the newly formed team 9..."
"Enough."
Colma waved her sleeves and her figure suddenly disappeared, leaving only the lingering sound of Niao Niao echoing in place: "Let Team Nine exercise for a while. By the way, give the frightened guests a coupon and send them to leave through the side door."
Zheng Qing didn't know that Yuzui Hunting Team had fewer coupons because they ran too fast.
He was in shock with several other companions.
After rushing out of the tavern, Zheng Qing did not see Varis breaking through the fence of the courtyard wall and following the back of Tao Zhiyaoyao on Gudiao Street, but instead saw a group of about ten northern wizards waving their own magic books and releasing spells, surrounding Varis in the small garden outside the tavern.
No, it is not appropriate to call this garden a ‘small garden’ at this moment.
Zheng Qing immediately realized that the garden outside the Cherry Blossom Tavern seemed to have become particularly spacious. The slightly tall cherry blossom trees that were originally standing in the yard seemed to have turned into four clusters of pink shrubs, the courtyard walls, gates, fences, etc. of Gudiao Street, completely disappeared into the night, leaving only dark shadows.
In the night sky, the silver-white light shining from the full moon seemed to have intelligence, and it was honestly accumulated in the middle of the garden, illuminating the area where the wizards fought in the north area. On the contrary, there was not much moonlight on the surrounding edge, which seemed extremely dull, which made Zheng Qing feel inexplicably standing under the stage to watch the performance, and a fierce fighting scene was being held on the stage.
"It's not an illusion." Dylan confirmed immediately.
"The grass on the ground is very real." Fatty Xin, who was squatting on the ground, also struggled to stand up, holding a tender green grass stem in his mouth, and holding a greasy kicking his legs in his hand: "The bugs are also real."
He lightly bounced the oil into the distance.
"It is highly likely that the guardian magic circle of the Gini House has a certain space expansion effect." Xiao Xiao held his glasses, his voice was low and dumb, and his face was a little pale. This was the sequelae of the powerful rescue potion.
Zheng Qing looked at the big white bearded head of Varis not far away, touched the Colt silver python hanging around his waist, and hesitated whether to give him a cold one - there was no need to blow his head, just break one of his legs, the small-scale battle would end soon.
"Don't interfere, leave it to them."
A familiar voice on his side briskly interrupted the hesitation of the young public student. Zheng Qing looked back and saw Colma standing quietly behind him. Although he was still wearing the silver-gray long skirt, his whole body seemed to be shrouded in shadow. The light passing through her was very clearly distorted, giving people a feeling of distance and distance between the lens.
Perhaps seeing the boy's surprised gaze, the witch tilted her head slightly: "Sorry, I'm still on the second floor, I didn't expect such an accident... After all, this is the North District, and it's more appropriate to leave this kind of thing to the North District wizard to handle."
It was very abrupt. Zheng Qing felt that her head tilting was cute, and she couldn't help but simulate the appearance of another witch or another little white cat when she tilted her head.
Then he immediately realized that this idea was a little inappropriate and withdrew his gaze with guilt.
"Ahem, no, no problem." The captain of Yusin Hunting Team coughed twice, agreeing to the request of the Great Sage of the North District, but emphasized: "It's just that Mr. Varis is involved in a case of black magic and needs to be handed over to the Three-Fork Sword later."
“We have no problem either.”
Colma's lips curled up and replied happily: "It is an honor for the wizards in the North District to be able to assist in the investigation of the Trident Sword... I hope you will emphasize this point in the post-investigation report."
Zheng Qing nodded in understanding.
This is an opportunity to expand the influence of wizards in the North District. Just do a little public opinion work afterwards to have a positive effect on continuously improving the image of wizards in the North District.
While nodding, his gaze suddenly froze.
On the edge of the onlookers - not all the guests chose to leave the tavern, and many people, mainly students from the First University, followed excitedly and watched the sudden battle - on the edge of the onlookers, Zheng Qing saw a figure wearing a black cloak, his face hidden under his hood, holding a note board in his arms, holding a quill pen, as if making records.
His hands were exposed and wearing leather gloves exactly the same as Crow No. 3 on his exposed hands.
