When the two black-robed wizards in a secret place on the edge of the Silent Forest discussed whether the gap in the magic circle of the forest goods market in the north area of ​​Beta Town could be expanded, the Exoneration Hunting Team located in the gap was also discussing related topics.

"This kind of thing is obvious at a glance...those Fu Dou are the murderers who broke through the magic circle." Fatty Xin insisted on his opinion on who broke the wall: "At the scene, besides those Fu Dou, we can also find other murderers, or other similar ones Does the murderer exist?"

Zheng Qing shook his head. There was indeed no other murderer.

However, he did not agree with the theory of ‘trouble breaks the wall’ proposed by a journalist classmate.

"I know you want to publish the manuscript quickly, but you can't say that wind is rain," the young public-funded student tried to save Xin's conscience that was not completely broken: "It's just those puppies with all their claws out. Three inches long, the fireballs they sprayed couldn't even destroy a foot-thick cement block, so how do you infer that they broke the wall?"

What he said was completely true.

From entering the forest goods market, to passing through the melee scene, and to the gap in the wall, Zheng Qing watched the group of troublemakers chasing the vendors in the market around. He also noticed that from beginning to end, except for one unlucky guy Apart from the fireballs that burned away hair and set several piles of leather goods on fire, there were no other losses in the entire market.

Xiao Xiao also agreed with Zheng Qing's point of view.

"Those misfortunes really don't have this ability." Xiao Xiao sat cross-legged behind everyone, lit a small pile of dry yarrow in front of him, and while fiddling with it and patiently observing the shape of the green smoke, he analyzed: "Those misfortunes belong to the An improved breed on Phuket Island, but it is less than two feet tall, does not wear armor, and does not have heavy horns. It only relies on a few fireballs to make the magic circle shine at the red level. Even if they are powerful... let alone break these magic circles. ”

"What do you think, are there wizards assisting these beasts?" Fatty Xin sneered again and again: "Do you dare to show your real name in my manuscript... something like 'Governmentally funded student of the First University, winner of the famous Merlin Medal, 09 Classmate Zheng Qing, the winner of the Major Arcana World Award, believes that the magic circle accident at the North District Forest Goods Market was caused by belief..."

Hearing what he said, Zheng Qing's face turned pale.

"Don't write nonsense, I didn't say that, why don't I change my words?" He smiled bitterly and waved his hands repeatedly: "It's just a guess, a private discussion, why are you so serious..."

The fat man raised his chin proudly and puffed out a stream of white air from his nose: "That's all I'm going to say... Look, I scared you so much that you are less courageous than a quail."

Zheng Qing ignored the fat man's provocation. He held up the Remington rune gun with both hands and turned his head to look outside the gap - the Colt Python was already hung on his waist. Since the team is now in defensive mode, naturally a rune gun with a longer range is more suitable.

Robert E. Lee didn't stay behind walls with a few young wizards.

After he arranged for three people to guard the gap, he jumped out of the fence and entered the quiet isolation zone. Outside the wall is a long and narrow isolation zone, less than two hundred meters wide. Outside the isolation zone is the wide main channel of the Silent River, and across the river bank is the real Silent Forest.

There are no real woods on the isolation zone, only a fairly sparse shrub forest, mainly composed of mangroves, boxwoods, pittosporum, etc. Under the bushes, there are many hidden magic circle nodes and magic traps to block the magical creatures crawling out of the Silent River.

Normally, the patrol team in Beta Town would clean up these magic traps every ten months and re-consolidate the nodes of the magic circle. But now, a big hole has been drilled in the wall. What is the condition of the magic circle outside the wall and whether there is any possibility of repair. It requires on-site inspection by professionals who are familiar with the relevant situation to draw an accurate conclusion.

Robert E. Lee, as the Sheriff of Beta Town, had unshirkable responsibilities.

At this moment, the isolation zone outside the fence was quiet, and it had been nearly a quarter of an hour since Robert's figure disappeared into the bushes. None of Zheng Qing and the other three knew what was going on outside, and they didn't know whether they should continue to wait. They could only chat to relieve their anxiety in their anxiety.

"Doctor, how is your yarrow burning? What is the divination?" Zheng Qing stared at the world outside the wall and asked Xiao Xiao without looking back.

Divination is the most comforting method for wizards when their eyesight goes dark.

"The smoke gathers but never disperses, hiding in the shape of mountains, with white lines winding in between, forming a narrow path, which symbolizes a bumpy and tortuous journey." Xiao Xiao analyzed the smoke in front of him seriously.

"I believe you," Fatty Xin muttered, looking at the small cluster of flames in front of Xiao Xiao with suspicion: "I've never heard that yarrow is used for divination... shouldn't it be divination? ?”

The treetops in the distance seemed to shake slightly.

Zheng Qing's ears twitched.

His hearing seems to have become slightly stronger in some way since he got used to being a cat. Whether it was an illusion or not, he vaguely heard a sound coming from the forest in the distance.

"... Having said that, the fact that I just said 'disaster breaks the wall' does not mean that I agree with this point of view. It just means that based on the existing resources at the scene, those disasters are the most suspicious." Fatty Xin finished commenting on the doctor's yarrow divination. After the operation, he continued to talk about the previous topic: "I am a reporter and I have to speak with facts... How can I write about things without evidence in the manuscript? Do you think it is..."

Zheng Qing raised his arm to stop the fat man from making noise.

"Did you hear anything?" He squinted his eyes and looked at the world outside the wall.

Helplessly, the thick bushes and inexplicable water vapor, coupled with the interference of light involved in the flow of the magic circle, made their field of vision very limited, making it difficult to see clearly the specific situation thirty or fifty meters away.

After receiving Zheng Qing's instructions, Fatty Xin immediately shut up.

You can be casual when you are having fun, but you must abide by the rules when a situation arises. This is a basic rule that every hunting team and every hunter knows.

There was silence around the gap. Zheng Qing listened carefully.

Then the corners of his eyes opened wider and wider.

"Ready for battle!!!"

The captain of the Exoneration Hunting Team roared wildly, reached out and pulled out the Colt Silver Python from his waist, fiddled with the magazine, then raised the gun and fired a shot at an angle.

"boom!"

A ray of milky white light spurted out from the muzzle, slid out of a graceful arc, and fell behind the dark bushes. In just a blink of an eye, a huge bright light flashed past, and the world that was originally gray in everyone's eyes suddenly became clear. got up.

"Wild Hunting!! Fifty meters behind!!!"

Robert E. Lee yelled and ran frantically towards the gap in the wall. His originally intact robe was torn by the bushes, his face was stained with blood, and the Dharma book in his hand had been thrown somewhere.

Zheng Qing took a deep breath, lifted Remington flatly, and pointed it in the direction behind the Sheriff who was running towards them.

Fatty Xin was already humming and transformed into a blue giant several meters tall, holding an iron rod and ready to go.
