Monster Hunting High School

Hearing Jiang Yu's questioning, Zheng Qing suddenly felt a little dazed.

Unconsciously, it has been more than two years since the first black gem cat left.

Two years ago, in the world of the sea of ​​​​clouds, Mr. took out the 'soul' of the first black gem cat and sacrificed it to the forbidden curse book, so that Zheng Qing could safely use the forbidden curse at a very low level. strength.

It would not be like when he was a freshman and he was exploded by the power of the curse because he used the forbidden curse without authorization.

It's just that as an ordinary clone, the black gem cat's 'soul' power is not enough after all, and the use time obtained by sacrifice is also limited. So Zheng Qing later raised a few more black gem cats as backup.

"——Your gem is here."

Zheng Qing took out the 'remnants' of the first black gem cat from the gray cloth bag. While carefully staring at the big hammer carried by the little white cat, he honestly explained the cause and effect. In the end, he expressed it very sincerely. Guilt: "Anyway, I'm very sorry!"

Looking at the dark stone that had lost its luster and had a very clear crack on it, the witch's expression softened significantly. She didn't care about it, but seemed very happy.

"It's a good thing if I can help." As she spoke, she glanced at the hairy dragon bracelet that the boy was still wearing on his wrist. She became more and more satisfied. She glanced at the three little black cats lying on Zheng Qing's shoulders and added Said: "——I will find you some gems with abundant spiritual energy later. It will be easier to warm and nurture them."

This was an understatement, but in the ears of the three little black cats, it sounded malicious.

Fortunately, Zheng Qing noticed something was wrong early, shook his shoulders slightly, and shook the three little black cats who were about to speak back into his hood.

"——This gem." He weighed the 'remnants' of the first black gem cat in his hands and hesitated whether to return it to Jiang Yu.

Before he could make up his mind, he heard a loud thud at his feet.

Boom!

The little white cat slammed the hammer on the ground, creating a circle of beautiful spider web-like cracks on a piece of intact blue brick. Then she didn't say anything and just stared at the boy.

Zheng Qing was a little flustered by her sight. He hesitated and tentatively handed over the remains of the black gem in his hand: "——How about you help keep this gem?"

The little white cat stood upright with its ears drooped, holding the gem with both hands, jumped up, and disappeared into Jiang Yu's hood in a flash of white light.

The two young wizards looked at each other.

I always feel that the atmosphere is a little weird.

At this moment, Zheng Qing's ears twitched slightly, and he frowned and looked at the direction of the door: "——Did you hear anything?"

"Sound?" Jiang Yu also frowned and listened.

——Dingle bell!

The faint and crisp sound of bells, accompanied by the night wind, spread intermittently into the yard.

Jingle bell——

"Where did the ringtone come from?"

Dylan turned back alertly. As a vampire werewolf, he had very keen hearing and could easily pick up on the discordant sounds coming from the silent forest.

Along with his alertness.

The forgiveness hunters who were originally scattered at the door immediately distanced themselves from each other and launched a nested array that was both offensive and defensive. Everyone's attention was focused on Dylan's alert direction.

In the quiet night, the dark silent forest is like the open mouth of Leviathan, swallowing up all concepts that do not belong to this forest - from the moonlight falling in the sky to the whispered conversations of the young wizards - but there is no trace of it. Can swallow up the intermittent crisp ringtone.

No, not just ringtones.

Just as the Forgiveness Hunters were on alert, a floating orange-red light point vaguely appeared in the darkness. It is like a lost light bug, slowly and swaying through the darkness. It seems that it will be rolled into the belly by a tongue that pops out of the darkness in the next second, making people pinch it unconsciously. Sweated a lot.

But everyone's worries did not appear after all.

The orange light was still steadily approaching the location of the abandoned palace.

And as it got closer, the crisp ringing became clearer and clearer.

At this point, no one will mistakenly think that the light spot belongs to a certain light bug. As for whether it is the one eye of a monster or a will-o'-the-wisp lantern passed by Yin soldiers, no one knows the correct answer until it gets closer.

"——Someone knock on the door and remind our two captains that there seems to be an uninvited guest in the woods."

Xiao Xiao sat in the center of the battle formation, giving orders while frowning at the slightly shiny crystal ball in front of him - the smooth sphere reflected clouds of mist of varying shades, reminding the fortune teller that the hunting team was now in very danger. environment. It's just that the mist already existed before the ringtone and orange light spots appeared.

In other words, because You Sin is now deep in the Silent Forest, the surrounding environment must be dangerous. The ringtone and the appearance of the orange light did not make the situation worse.

"—We heard it without knocking."

The wooden door behind the battle formation was quietly opened. Zheng Qing and Jiang Yu walked out of the door one behind the other. The yellow civet, who had slipped away without knowing where, followed happily with his tail raised.

This gave Zheng Qing a bad feeling.

But before he could carefully consider the flash of uneasiness, he noticed the strange looks from around him.

Fatty Xin rubbed his body next to Xiao Xiao and sighed in a 'very small' voice: "——Doctor, what you said is indeed true. This person is indeed rough-skinned and thick-bodied, and can withstand beatings very well!"

Zhang Yudou looked him up and down and added: "There is dust on his head and wrinkles on his clothes...but his face is clean and there is no wound. Is this the benefit of being thick-skinned?"

Zheng Qing's face darkened when he heard this.

Jiang Yuze coughed softly and explained: "-Just now I was helping Zheng Qing to dismantle the house. He plans to rebuild this yard. There is nothing like what you think."

She said it very sincerely.

This is basically true.

But at this moment, no one believed it. Sometimes people's hearts are so interesting. The more explanations for things that have not been done, the more guilty they appear; for things that have been done, if nothing happened, no one will doubt it-just like at this moment, everyone believes that she just beat Zheng Qing up, and the cover-up at this moment is to avoid Zheng Qing's embarrassment.

Just like the old saying, everyone is only willing to believe what they believe.

Ding-ling-ling!

The ringing sound that is getting closer and closer interrupted this episode in front of the door.

"Boohoo little star!"

A small white star rose from the hunting formation, illuminating the area of ​​several miles, and completely covering the orange light spot, exposing its existence.

The orange light spot belonged to a small orange lantern.

And the small orange lantern belonged to a round pumpkin carriage.

The pumpkin carriage was pulled by four furry white rats, and the driver was a familiar companion of the young wizards, Dingdang Ears, who also belonged to the Forgiveness Hunting Team.

The tension in front of the door gradually dissipated.

Instead, the young hunters exchanged sparkling glances with each other.
