Monster Hunting High School

"How are your little elves doing?"

This was the first thing Jiang Yu asked Zheng Qing after the clone transformation lesson.

Just as the wizard was about to answer, he suddenly remembered something else. He quickly gestured to the witch to calm down and hurriedly opened the door and caught up with Professor Yao who had just left the classroom and was still in the corridor.

"professor!"

Zheng Qing panted and stopped beside Lao Yao, rubbing his hands nervously, like a squirrel holding a chestnut: "I went to see a doctor for my little elves a few days ago. You know those little elves?" , they are very well-behaved, but three elves seem to be transforming during the winter vacation... So I took them to Dr. Duzem's laboratory to see a doctor... Dr. Duzem, you know, right, you must know... "

The dean of Jiuyou College listened patiently to the wizard's chatter for a long time, and finally couldn't help it. He raised the pipe in his hand and hit Zheng Qing on the head a few times: "Don't talk nonsense, just tell the truth!"

The boy scratched his head and suddenly felt that his question was a bit silly, but he was already standing here, so he could only bite the bullet and asked in a low voice: "That's right, I saw a piece of wood outside Dr. Duzem's research institute. The new brand is 'Relevant Department of the First University's Fringe College'... I don't know what it means... I feel like the name is a bit strange... Has the school allowed Fringe College to master the forbidden spell?"

When he said that word, he subconsciously looked around and his voice became lower, like a mosquito.

The sullen expression on the professor's face receded slightly, and he nodded thoughtfully.

"Not many students can notice this. You are indeed the most likely one...but you need to understand something." He paused and did not directly answer Zheng Qing's confusion, but replied meaningfully: "Forbidden curses are managed by relevant departments, but relevant departments are not just responsible for managing forbidden curses."

After that, he turned around and disappeared into the corridor without any explanation.

It wasn't until Jiang Yu patted Zheng Qing's shoulder from behind that the wizard came back to his senses.

"What are you doing?"

The witch clasped her hands behind her back and glanced at him curiously. At the same time, she looked left and right along his line of sight. Her long eyelashes flickered, giving people a very sudden and playful feeling, which made Zheng Qing look a little dazed.

Jiang Yu stretched out her hand and waved it in front of his eyes, and he finally came back to his senses.

"What?"

He repeated this nonsense, and his consciousness quickly found the lost part. His face felt slightly warm, and he averted his slightly rude gaze for a moment, and hurriedly replied: "I am, just when you asked me just now, I suddenly remembered, So I came here to ask the professor what he thought of the situation of those elves... The professor said it didn't matter... They were still the same as before, sleeping soundly, but they never woke up. "

What he said was quite confusing and a little stuttering.

It was difficult for Jiang Yu to show full patience.

"No exception is the best case scenario."

She nodded slightly, turned over her jade hand, and two jade stones appeared in her palm like magic, one was a jet-black and delicate ink jade, and the other was a clear and almost transparent white jade.

"Take your piece."

The witch spoke in a brisk tone and added concisely: "As far as I know, the activation spell in transformation magic requires very advanced spell-casting skills. At our level, it is still relatively difficult to animate a hair into a cat. Relatively speaking, It’s much easier to turn a stone into a cat.”

She still gave Zheng Qing some face and used the word 'we'.

Zheng Qing hesitated for a few seconds.

But deep in my heart, I felt very annoyed. In fact, when Lao Yao talked about "using stones, puppets, and toys to practice activation skills," he thought about finding some beautiful gems full of magic and giving them to Jiang Yu, because the professor mentioned it in class, the more people there are The spiritual stone is easier to activate.

After only a few minutes of delay, he changed from the person who gave gems to the one who received gems.

Of course, he did not show this annoyance, but happily took the piece of black jade, thanked the witch, and agreed to master the activation transformation technique as much as possible by the end of this month.

"As the professor has repeatedly emphasized, the sooner we master this magic, the easier our studies will be this semester." Zheng Qing held Mo Yu in his hands, thinking about his experience in the first two weeks of school, feeling sad.

While talking, the two of them had already walked out of the teaching building.

At this time, most of the people had already left, and those scattered behind were all 'nerds' who focused on their studies. Although they were very curious about the famous Zheng Qing, few people came forward to disturb them. Most of them just took a look or two and then hurriedly leave.

Although he knew that it was normal for wizards and witches to walk together in broad daylight, Zheng Qing's inexplicable guilt still made Zheng Qing carefully look around, feeling that everyone looked like someone he knew.

Especially when he just left the door of the teaching building, the figure that flashed past looked very much like Matthew Cullen. But immediately, Zheng Qing shook his head and rejected this slightly funny idea - because according to the current time point, the classmates in the class At this moment, he should still be stationed at the Fringe Academy outside the school, and it is impossible for Matthew to appear here.

As the sun sets, orange-red clouds cover the western horizon, like a plate of jam poured on the table. The young wizard and the witch walked together, the long shadows behind them intertwined and pulled, weaving in and out of the shadows of different sizes of buildings and bushes.

Having been hiding under the invisibility charm for this period of time, Zheng Qing felt that he had forgotten the beauty of the real world. At this moment, he was only greedily enjoying the evening breeze and the faint fragrance around him, and he vaguely forgot about the threats of ghosts.

"Where's the black cat that your shadow turned into?"

When turning a corner, Jiang Yu saw the shadows of the two entangled together from the corner of her eye. She suddenly remembered something and gently squeezed the piece of white jade in her hand: "It stands to reason that the cat turned from the shadow should also be regarded as the result of the activation technique." Bar!"

Zheng Qing thought of the cat's origins and the department it was currently in, and finally shook his head.

"It was an accident."

The boy clearly denied that possibility: "A very unreasonable accident. If you have dealt with it in the black prison, you should know that the cat cares about its independence more than anyone else, and it is impossible to accept me. The consciousness took over its body, and when I gave it freedom again last semester... we were not very happy."

He spread his hands with a wry smile on his face, and did not explain in detail what unpleasantness he would have with his shadow.

The witch nodded slightly and gave a strange example: "Just like Li Meng, she cares more about her status as a college student than anyone else. The more she lacks something, the more she cares about it... Go this way, this way. There is a path that goes around the west bank of Linzhong Lake, and there is a small lake view there that is very nice. ”

She took him around the willow forest behind the teaching building and walked along a winding path paved with gravel. As the hibernation approached, more and more small animals began to wake up and crawl out of the tree holes. , many tree sperm born last winter opened their eyes to see the world for the first time, and their short calls were full of surprises.

Some of the more daring ones would bravely throw peeling bark, dead branches or abandoned insect nests at the heads of wizards and witches passing by under the trees.

The tree sperm are not very strong, and their throwing accuracy is not very good. Zheng Qingquan regards walking in the forest as a bit of fun.

Only the spider webs hanging from the branches above his head, one after another, stuck between his and the witch's hair and shoulders from time to time, making people very unpleasant.
