When the two black-robed wizards in a secret place on the edge of the Silent Forest discussed whether the gap in the magic circle of the forest goods market in the north area of Beta Town could be expanded, the Exoneration Hunting Team located in the gap was also discussing related topics.
"This kind of thing is obvious at a glance...those Fu Dou are the murderers who broke through the magic circle." Fatty Xin insisted on his opinion on who broke the wall: "At the scene, besides those Fu Dou, we can also find other murderers, or other similar ones.
Is there a murderer?"
Zheng Qing shook his head, there was indeed no other murderer.
But he doesn’t agree with the theory of ‘trouble breaks the wall’ put forward by a journalist classmate.
"I know you want to publish the manuscript as soon as possible, but you can't say that the wind is the rain," the young public-funded student tried to save Xin's conscience that was not completely broken: "It's just those puppies with all their claws out.
Three inches long, the fireball they sprayed couldn't even destroy a foot-thick cement block, so how do you infer that they broke the wall?"
What he said is completely true.
From entering the forest products market, to passing through the melee scene, and all the way to the gap in the wall, Zheng Qing watched the group of troublemakers chasing the vendors in the market around. He also noticed that from beginning to end, except for one unlucky guy
The fireball vomited by the bad guy burned away his hair and set a few piles of leather goods on fire, but there were no other losses in the entire market.
Xiao Xiao also agreed with Zheng Qing's point of view.
"Those misfortunes really don't have this ability." Xiao Xiao sat cross-legged behind everyone, lighting a small pile of dry yarrow in front of him, and while fiddling with it and patiently observing the shape of the smoke, he analyzed: "Those misfortunes belong to the
An improved breed on Phuket Island, but it is less than two feet tall, does not wear armor, and does not have heavy horns. It can only rely on a few fireballs to make the magic circle appear at the red level. Even if they are powerful... let alone break these magic circle.
Already."
"What do you mean, there are wizards assisting these beasts?" Fatty Xin sneered again and again: "Do you dare to show your real name in my manuscript...Similar to 'Governmentally funded student of the First University, winner of the famous Merlin Medal, 09
Classmate Zheng Qing, the winner of the Major Arcana World Award, believes that the magic circle accident at the North District Forest Goods Market was caused by belief..."
Hearing what he said, Zheng Qing's face turned pale.
"Don't write nonsense, I didn't say that, why don't I change my words?" He smiled bitterly and waved his hands repeatedly: "It's just a guess, a private discussion, why are you so serious..."
The fat man raised his chin proudly and puffed out a puff of white air from his nose: "That's all I'm going to say... Look, I'm scaring you so much that you're less courageous than a quail."
Zheng Qing ignored the fat man's provocation. He held up the Remington rune gun with both hands and turned to look outside the gap - the Colt Python was already hung on his waist. Since the team was now in a defensive state, it was natural that
The longer the range, the more suitable the rune gun is.
Robert E. Lee didn't stay behind walls with a few young wizards.
After he arranged for three people to guard the gap, he jumped out of the fence and entered the quiet isolation zone. Outside the fence was a long and narrow isolation zone with a width of less than two hundred meters. Outside the isolation zone was the wide main channel of the Silent River.
Across the river bank is a true forest of silence.
There are no real woods on the isolation zone, only a fairly sparse bush, mainly mangroves, boxwoods, pittosporum, etc. Under the bushes, there are many hidden magic circle nodes and magic traps.
Stop the magical creatures crawling out of the Silent River.
Normally, the patrol team in Beta Town would clean up these magic traps every ten months and re-consolidate the nodes of the magic circle. But now, there are big holes in the walls. What is the condition of the magic circle outside the wall?
There is no possibility of repair, so an on-site inspection by professionals who are familiar with the relevant situation is required to draw an accurate conclusion.
Robert E. Lee, as the Sheriff of Beta Town, had unshirkable responsibilities.
At this moment, the isolation zone outside the wall was quiet. It had been nearly a quarter of an hour since Robert's figure disappeared into the bushes. None of Zheng Qing and the other three knew what was going on outside, and they didn't know whether they should continue to wait. They could only wait anxiously.
Use small talk to relieve anxiety.
"Doctor, how is your yarrow burning? What is the divination?" Zheng Qing stared at the world outside the wall and asked Xiao Xiao without looking back.
Divination is the most comforting method for wizards when their eyesight goes dark.
"The smoke gathers but never disperses, forming the shape of mountains, with white lines winding in between, forming a narrow path, which symbolizes a bumpy and tortuous journey." Xiao Xiao analyzed the smoke in front of him seriously.
"I believe you," Fatty Xin muttered, looking suspiciously at the small cluster of flames in front of Xiao Xiao: "I've never heard that yarrow is used for divination... shouldn't it be divination?
?”
The treetops in the distance seemed to shake slightly.
Zheng Qing's ears twitched.
Ever since he got used to transforming into a cat, his hearing seemed to have become slightly stronger to some extent. I don't know if it was an illusion, but he vaguely heard a sound coming from the forest in the distance.
"... Having said that, the fact that I just said 'disaster breaks the wall' does not mean that I agree with this point of view. It just means that based on the existing resources at the scene, those disasters are the most suspicious." Fatty Xin finished commenting on the doctor's yarrow divination.
After the operation, he continued to talk about the previous topic: "I am a reporter and I have to speak with facts... How can I write about things without evidence in the manuscript? Do you think it is..."
Zheng Qing raised his arm to stop the fat man's noise.
"Did you hear anything?" He squinted his eyes and looked at the world outside the wall.
Helplessly, the bushes and inexplicable water vapor lingering, coupled with the interference of light involved in the flow of the magic circle, made their field of vision very limited, making it difficult to see the specific situation thirty or fifty meters away.
After receiving Zheng Qing's instructions, Fatty Xin immediately shut up.
You can be casual when you are having fun, but you must abide by the rules when a situation arises. These are the basic rules that every hunting team and every hunter knows.
There was silence around the gap, and Zheng Qing listened carefully.
Then the corners of his eyes opened wider and wider.
"Ready for battle!!!"
The captain of the Exoneration Hunting Team roared wildly, reached out and pulled out the Colt Silver Python from his waist, fiddled with the magazine, then raised the gun and fired a shot at an angle.
"boom!"
A ray of milky white light spurted out from the muzzle, slid out of a graceful arc, and fell behind the dark bushes. In just a blink of an eye, the huge bright light flashed past, and the world that was originally gray in everyone's eyes suddenly became clear.
Got up.
"Wild Hunting!! Fifty meters behind!!!"
Robert E. Lee was yelling and running crazily towards the gap in the wall. His originally intact robe was torn by the bushes, his face was covered in blood, and the Dharma book in his hand had been thrown away.
place.
Zheng Qing took a deep breath, lifted Remington flatly, and pointed it in the direction behind the Sheriff who was running towards them.
Fatty Xin was already humming and transformed into a blue giant several meters tall, holding an iron rod and ready to go.
