Monster Hunting High School

In view of the atmosphere at dinner, Zheng Qing and Jiang Yu both wisely did not discuss the Star Academy student who was absent from classes due to an accidental death, but this did not mean that Zheng Qing had forgotten the matter.

The indifferent tone in which Lao Yao talked about that matter was deeply imprinted in his mind.

It felt like he had eaten a fish in the afternoon, and then a thorn was stuck in his throat. Every time he felt that the thorn had slipped into his stomach, it would shake it calmly, and use a brief and brief expression. Sharp pain tells you it's there.

night.

After the Yunlu class is over.

Back in dormitory 403, the two companions were sitting around the desk. Xiao Xiao was looking through a thick stack of reference books, while Fatty Xin had a row of bottles and jars of different sizes in front of him, as if they were mixing some magic potion. .

"Go to the laboratory building to prepare the medicine... Do you have to blow up the dormitory once to make you feel like you are in college?" Zheng Qing reprimanded weakly.

After all, he is still the director of dormitory 403.

While he was talking, he had already dragged his heavy steps to the desk, picked up a reference book from the doctor's hand, looked at the title, "Introduction to Elfology", author John Craig, and flipped through the table of contents. , starting from the most basic types and properties of elves, the content also covers spiritual seed cultivation, elf feeding, detailed explanations of contracts, simple instructions and in-depth learning, elf habit cultivation, analysis of common cases, etc. The content is very rich.

Holding this book, Zheng Qing's eyes crossed the edge of the book and landed on other reference books stacked aside by the doctor - "Green Elves: Sowing, Growth and Control", "Elf Management Technical Manual", "Elf Behavior Analysis" "Chaotic life under precise logic", "Alchemical life - on the formation of alien life and special mutation rules based on magic refining and natural selection", "Jabir and Valentin discussing alchemy", etc., read each book It's terrifyingly thick even when it's on.

Snapped!

The young assistant teacher fiercely closed the "Introduction to Elfology" in his hand.

"Hell," he muttered, adding a bit of annoyance to his face: "During lunch, I still wanted to discuss with her about finding Dr. Duzem..."

"You ended up forgetting it as soon as you met, right?" Fatty Xin hummed angrily at the side, but his hand movements were fast and not messy at all.

Zheng Qing sighed heavily, shameless to defend himself.

He had indeed forgotten all about these elves.

"Then now..." He cheered up a little and glanced at Xiao Xiao, then at the mortar in the fat wizard's hand, and finally his eyes fell on the unfolding sunflower and several sleeping little ones lying on the flower plate. On the elves.

"The doctor saw an ancient recipe in "Alchemy of Life". It is used to make hemp essential oil. It has the effect of assisting and promoting special mutations, so we try it." Xin raised the medicine pestle in his hand and pointed to the ink stuck to it. Green slime: "Strengthen the ability to communicate between life and nature, increase magic power to a certain extent...very, very safe."

The fragrance of haoma herbal liquid wafted up, and Zheng Qing seemed to see countless tiny magic molecules cheering for joy in the dormitory. He couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

The 'fish bone' in his throat reminded him again.

He put down the "Introduction to Elfology" and hesitated, briefly mentioning the old student from Starry Sky Academy who died unexpectedly to his two companions, but was surprised to find that neither of them showed any surprise.

"This kind of thing is always inevitable." The fat wizard carefully adjusted the amounts of different herbs in the mortar and hummed. There was no trace of the usual excitement of catching big news in his tone.

Compared to him, the doctor can give much richer information.

"I heard that the classmate's surname is Wang. He usually likes close combat when he participates in internal competitions at Starry Sky Academy. He once defended the ring for a week in unrestricted fighting."

As he spoke, Xiao Xiao glanced at Mr. Vampire Werewolf's empty bed, and added: "If Dylan comes back, there may be more news. As for now... I don't know the details. After all, the accident happened in the outside world, and The time is still very short. The school has always been very low-key about this kind of thing. It’s not a good thing.”

"There are always a few places for disabled people in the graduating class every year. It won't be surprising if you hear it often." Fatty Xin grabbed the glass rod and carefully stirred the slightly viscous liquid in the cup, with a serious expression and a low tone: " Do you still remember the trial meeting before the start of last semester? Trials were held in the freshman year, but because there were always casualties, the school only carried out reforms last year. "

"...I always thought that kind of 'casualty' was like the effect of the Karma Turning Curse when we participated in the school hunting party before." Zheng Qing stared at the elf in the flower plate and murmured.

"Ha." The fat wizard let out a short and harsh laugh. He did not comment on Zheng Qing's innocence and continued: "...and in principle, this kind of news will not be published by the school newspaper or the Post on its own initiative. ...Unless his death is related to other news in the school. Like this person, he died in the new world and couldn't even afford a bubble... Well, my Haoma essential oil has stopped bubbling, so it should be about the same... By the way, you have it. Has anyone seen a zombie mermaid?”

The topic changed so suddenly that both Zheng Qing and Xiao Xiao were stunned for a moment.

"What?"

"Zombie mermaid." The fat wizard repeated the term meticulously.

"I have seen the undead Janna...but they are still very different from mermaids." Xiao Xiao frowned and adjusted his glasses: "Does it have anything to do with the death of that classmate?"

"Why do you ask this question?" Zheng Qing asked a similar question at almost the same time.

"Because I feel that the topic you discussed is too heavy and affects my preparation of potions."

The fat wizard had a very good reason. He raised the glass to the light, squinted, and carefully looked at the state inside: "...As for the 'zombie mermaid', it was because someone submitted an article to the school newspaper and said that he saw it in the Aegean Sea during the winter vacation. A zombie mermaid sucks the blood of the Minotaur under the moon, which makes sense...but I always feel like he's talking nonsense."

"Why do you see other people's submissions?" Xiao Xiao immediately caught the fat man's implicit meaning.

"Um."

The fat wizard rarely showed a trace of reserve, but he only lasted for a few seconds before he put down the cup and explained with excitement: "There is no way. Those who are able work hard. After Senior Sister Linda left, our original editor became the deputy editor. Temporarily I don’t have any more energy to review manuscripts... So, you know, the positions are becoming vacant... so the editorial department puts a little more burden on me.”

"Oh, you've been promoted, congratulations." Zheng Qing congratulated listlessly, lowered his head again, and stared at the few elves in the sunflower dish in a daze.

"Your tone sounds like you are congratulating a dead person."

The fat wizard complained, and finally picked up a jade spoon, scooped out a spoonful of clear and viscous essential oil, and looked around: "The things are mixed... Which one of you can take over and apply it on them?"
