Monster Hunting High School

Tick ​​tock, tick tock.

Kaka.

Ding.

Boom boom.

Click, click.

The shop of the Hook Brothers reverberated with the beating sounds of clocks with different tones. The walls on all sides of the shop were covered with all kinds of clocks, most of which were used to calculate time, such as old-fashioned table clocks, new pendulum clocks, and clumsy desk clocks. Clocks, small pocket watches, etc. are of various styles and are dazzling; a small part are antiques and art, similar to the hourglass used by the Prince of Persia, the sundial plated by the shaman of the Shang Dynasty, the cracked Gui watch, and the rusty armillary sphere; there are also some Some of the more special ones include an evil-proofing clock with runes on it, an astronomical clock with a dial made of stars, a flower clock that tells the time based on the different flowering times of different plants, and so on.

Zheng Qing was surrounded by time counters, feeling anxious that he didn't have enough time.

On the counter, two wooden boxes had been carefully opened by Big Hook, revealing the moonlight treasure box lying on the velvet cloth inside. He had reason to be careful, because the price quoted for this business alone was as high as sixty jade coins, which meant that the two boxes contained the equivalent of half a month's sales of the store.

The guest took out an exquisite monocle from his arms and stuffed it under his hood.

The guest is naturally Zheng Qing.

The glasses tucked under the hood are a gadget often used in alchemy classes to check whether alchemical products are qualified. Zheng Qing just used it this morning.

On the maroon wooden base is a spherical crystal cover. The transparent cover is decorated with exquisite pavilions, lotus ponds, and gardens. There are lawns, flower beds, fruit trees, shrubs, paths paved with bluestones, and black steep paths. On the rockery, there is a vague-faced witch wearing a rosy coat, holding a book and playing in the garden. There are two vague air masses chasing and playing around her at her feet.

"You only need to hold the crystal cover - just like using a crystal ball for divination - and then introduce the breath you prepared in advance, and the characters in the treasure box will change accordingly." Big Hook carefully introduced to the guests. How to use the product, and also remind: "I need to remind you that there is only one chance to introduce the breath. If the character image is abnormal due to the wrong breath, our store will not bear the after-sales responsibility."

"How do you collect the 'aura' you mentioned?" Zheng Qing asked very cautiously. The first thought that flashed through his mind was to quietly collect a wisp of fragrance when passing by the witch.

"It is not recommended that you directly collect the body scent of the target person."

Big Hook seemed to have guessed someone's thoughts, with a smile on his face: "A guest once did that, and the witch's head in the moonlight box turned into a rose... And what's worse, sometimes the fragrance will There is confusion, and the face of the doll in the treasure box looks like a stitched monster, with different top, bottom, and left sides... If possible, the hair of the target person is the best option. "

Under the hood, Zheng Qing's face wrinkled.

Hair.

Fortunately for Jiang Yu, as long as he gives classmate Li Meng a signed photo of Councilor Su, it is not difficult to get a hair; but for Su Shijun, it is very difficult. It is difficult for the wizard to imagine that he or Su Ya can get a hair from a big man. The wizard was covered in hair.

"Anyone's hair is fine?" the guest asked abruptly.

"What?" Big Hook was caught off guard by this question, with just the right amount of surprise on his face.

"Anyone's hair is fine?" The wizard repeated his question clearly, and added an explanation: "What I mean is, if I get the hair of a certain great wizard...will this treasure box... Will be blown away."

Big Hook immediately patted his chest:

"Don't talk about the great wizard, even if you get Vice Principal Shi's hair, there will be no problem at all."

Vice President Shi is Ms. Shi Hui from First University. Although she has resigned from the school this semester, the old people in Beta Town are still accustomed to using the previous title.

Of course, a great businessman can never be too sure of his words.

"...but you, the guest, should also know that high-level wizards have very keen senses," the owner of the alchemy shop added tactfully: "If they refuse - it's just a possibility - I mean, if they refuse to be in a picture If their faces appear in the magic photo, then we will only see their backs in the newspapers.”

"Is there anything else I need to pay attention to?"

The guest under the hood nodded thoughtfully and continued to carefully examine the gifts in the box with his butt raised. The transparent crystal cover was as thin and clean as soap bubbles. Even if the velvet cloth was placed aside, the wizard did not dare to touch it for fear of leaving a few ugly fingerprints on it.

Big Hook paused for a few seconds, and immediately began to explain the subtleties of the treasure box: "Each moonlight treasure box is unique, and the manufacturing drawings have been notarized by the Alchemy Association. It is absolutely safe and reliable... using materials including unicorns." There are many precious magic materials such as unicorn powder, Yoshimitsu's feathers, Sharman's tears, sandoki insect slough, etc..."

"Where's the moonlight?"

Zheng Qing interrupted the shop owner's advertisement impatiently. He had heard these words in his ears when he ordered the treasure box. At this moment, he was more concerned about the various effects of the treasure box: "...I remember you promised that this treasure During the production process, the box will use real moonlight, not the cheap stuff made by magic..."

Big Hook snapped his fingers, and the light in the room suddenly dimmed.

Immediately, a silvery-white moonlight rose from the transparent crystal cover of the Moonlight Treasure Box, like a gurgling stream, and people could vaguely hear the sound of moonlight flowing inside.

Zheng Qing saw with satisfaction that a bit of golden and silvery moonlight slowly rose from the lotus pond, and the moonlight turned into a real full moon, filling the entire 'soap bubble', making the witch wandering in the garden even more beautiful. charming.

Beauty under the moon is nothing more than this.

Of course, more importantly, Zheng Qing could clearly feel that the cold moonlight did not contain any magical fluctuations, just like the real moonlight at night, full of natural rhythms.

"So be it."

The wizard finally straightened up, took out the monocle from under his hood, nodded with satisfaction, then took out the gray cloth bag, counted out the balance of fifty jade coins, and piled it on the counter.

He made a lot of money this semester because of being burned.

The number of fifty jade coins is astonishing. They are piled there like a small mountain, exuding a charming green halo. Just looking at them twice makes people feel that their magic power is much more lively.

If it weren't for hiding his identity, Zheng Qing could have used a Sam Chase check or student card to pay the money.

Big Hook quickly counted the jade coins.

"The money and goods are in order... Here are your receipts and change for late payment fees. Please keep them." The shop owner smiled with a smile on his face and respectfully handed the parchment receipt and five coppers in change to the customer: "Welcome next time Come!”
