Monster Hunting High School

Wood fleas are also called bed bugs.

Phylum Arthropoda, class Insecta, order Hemiptera, an oval flatworm of the genus Bedbug. It feeds on blood. The odor glands in its body can secrete a foul odor. When in danger, it will emit it in the form of smoke. The adult is about five millimeters in length. More than enough, but the one that Zheng Qing crushed to death was nearly one centimeter long, far larger than the size of a normal wood flea.

"It's definitely a bit weird."

Fatty Xin pinched his nose, moved closer to Zheng Qing's open palm, and said in a loud voice: "It's not just the size... Generally speaking, this kind of bug will not crawl on people in the daytime, especially here is the First University. In addition to guarding the magic circle, the elves clean the classroom carefully every day... and Brother Qing is not like the kind of dirty guy who attracts bed bugs. "

"Besides, it doesn't seem that smelly." Zhang Jixin sniffed and added.

"Where is your dust-repelling talisman? Isn't it hanging on your body?" Xiao Xiao unfolded the bamboo slips and quickly copied out a cleaning spell and an insect-repelling spell, and threw them on Zheng Qing.

The enthusiastic analysis of his companions drew the young assistant's attention away from the discord of several colleges, and he finally noticed the strangeness of the little bug in his hand.

"I'm wearing the dust-repelling talisman."

He reached into his belt with his left hand, touched it, and pulled out a piece of talisman paper that was folded into a square shape. He threw it on the table and pointed at the faint green light revealed between the folds: "And it is still taking effect. In theory, No Gu insect can get close to me..."

"If the theory was useful, there wouldn't be so many accidents in the world." Xiao Xiao shook his head, picked up the talisman, and helped Zheng Qing stuff it back into his belt: "...and this bug is so It’s so big that it’s probably beyond the range that the ‘Chen-Bearing Talisman’ can expel.”

"I've never heard of anyone turning bed bugs into Gu bugs... The price-performance ratio is too low." Fatty Xin also let go of the hand holding his nose, sniffed, and raised his eyebrows: "Hey, it really doesn't stink. !”

As he spoke, he took out a porcelain plate, a monocle, and a series of examination supplies such as small forceps, scalpels, glass slides, and fixatives from his watch.

"There are still three minutes until class. It's enough to dismember a small insect!" The fat wizard held the tweezers in his left hand and the knife in his right hand. The knives and tweezers intersected, making a crisp collision sound, showing full confidence: "...This is my first time to dissect a corpse-eating beetle. It only took thirty seconds to peel off its skin completely!”

"That's awesome." Zheng Qing threw the bugs into the plate in front of the fat wizard and nodded perfunctorily, but the slightly dim conference room of the Seven Deadly Sins came to mind.

He wasn't the only one thinking about the devils.

"The devils didn't have a meeting with you last Friday, right?" Xiao Xiao calculated the time and asked Zheng Qing while helping Xin put the monocle on his left eye.

Zheng Qing shook his head.

"Three people said they were unable to attend the meeting because of something else... and the remaining four also said that no biological samples of the target person were collected." At this point, he couldn't help but twitching his lips: "Every time I hear this from them. , I always find it a bit funny.”

"If your blood or hair was really collected, you wouldn't find it so funny after having nightmares at night or lying down in the school hospital." Xiao Xiao gave him a warning look before looking back. , and focused again on the slightly shining crystal ball in front of him.

Zhang Jixin coughed lightly.

"is it possible,"

The red-faced wizard had a serious expression on his face, stroking the buttons on his gloves and thinking thoughtfully: "I mean, is this bug really just an accident? Because the Jingzhe has just passed, and every year the thunder of the Jingzhe disturbs many people. The bug that just woke up from the ground has mutated to some extent... This bed bug is only slightly larger, and the degree of mutation is still within the theoretical allowable range..."

Jingzhe is March 6th.

Today is already March 15th.

Xiao Xiao shook his head. Before he could speak, the fat wizard's voice came to his ears: "Mutation is mutation. There is no mutation within the scope of theory... Just like this bed bug, although it seems to us that it is only slightly bigger." It’s a circle, but its mutated mouthparts are sharp enough to bite through most dragon skins!”

As he spoke, he raised the smallest number of tweezers in his hand and showed everyone the bedbug mouthparts clamped on it. However, for a mutated insect that is only one centimeter long, no matter how sharp its mouthparts are, Zheng Qing and others cannot distinguish it without using any tools.

"But it still couldn't bite Brother Qing's skin, right." Zhang Jixin sighed enviously.

Because he needed to go home during the winter vacation, he did not participate in the designated hunting mission of the Exoneration Hunting Team, and naturally missed the celebration party after the mission was completed. But during this time, all the hunters in the Exoneration Hunting Team knew that Zheng Qing accidentally 'ate' a copper bean at the celebration party, causing his physical fitness to soar.

Unlike other people who were cautious and uneasy, the red-faced wizard didn't think this was a bad thing. In his opinion, the acquisition of any power needs to be accompanied by certain risks - magic experiments may encounter accidents, casting spells may cause backlash, tempering the body may cause disability, etc. - if the time cost is also calculated, Zheng Qing eats That copper bean that fell was a miracle cure.

Just like at this moment, when others were speculating on the origin of the bed bug, he looked regretful: "Two months ago, a small knife could scratch Brother Qing's skin, but now even the bugs that bite the dragon's skin can bite Don't break his oily skin... Sigh... I wonder if those crows have any leftover labs, I really want to eat a copper bean!"

"You have really trained your muscles in your head." Zheng Qing complained, and at the same time asked smoothly: "How many minutes are left in class? Should we show this bug to Lao Yao?"

He felt that Lao Yao could definitely see through the evil spirit behind this insect at a glance.

There was a exclamation in my ears.

"Has class started already?" Xiao Xiao adjusted his glasses and showed a rare hint of surprise: "Where's the professor? Isn't the first class about Lao Yao's spell study? Today is Monday!"

He even began to doubt today's date.

Just like the adage circulating in the wizarding world - if a legendary wizard conflicts with time, don't doubt that the fault must be time.

"It's Monday." Zheng Qing gave a positive reply and looked around.

Only then did he realize that Downton had disappeared from the classroom at some point. Liu Feifei was maintaining discipline in the class with the help of Jiang Yu. More and more students began to look outside the door uneasily. Although the professor did not come, he Surprisingly, there were not many people making noises and playing, and even the little stick figure behind the door sat on the white paper with his arms folded and a serious look on his face, saying nothing.

There was an unsettlingly depressing atmosphere in the classroom.

This wait is half the class time.
