Monster Hunting High School

This group of five people is the five young wizards of the Exoneration Hunting Team.

Unlike participating in campus hunting competitions or winter hunting held by schools, hunting teams that perform tasks designated by the alliance need to conceal their true identities to a certain extent to avoid being entangled by dark wizards or retaliating afterwards, causing trouble other than the task.

Zheng Qing fell in love with these cat-face masks at a glance in Sanchajian's dazzling mask warehouse.

Because they are standard equipment, these masks look similar, with black stripes on a white background, and a small three-pronged sword badge branded on the cheek. They are also equipped with cloaks and robes that have the same function. Others cannot tell who they are just from their appearance. identity.

As for why they appeared in this slightly remote tavern, that's another story.

Before officially starting the mission, Zheng Qing imagined that hunting the dark wizard was like hunting those magical creatures in the silent forest - the diviner determined the location, the hunter searched for the target, the hunter remained vigilant, and the main hunter and another hunter The auxiliary hunter is always ready to fight.

But after he actually started the mission, he realized that the two things had completely different processes.

First of all, all members of the hunting team need to be alert at all times. Because during the pursuit, in addition to their mission goals, there were too many enemies with three-pronged swords who were willing to cause trouble for these cat-faced wizards, including but not limited to old witches who pointed the wrong way to these young hunters, and those with fanatical faces. Cultists who just want to hold them in their arms to commit suicide, and dead bugs that occasionally appear in coffee cups.

Regarding the last situation, Fatty Xin, who was already suffering from paranoia of persecution, insisted that it was the unscrupulous enemies of Sancha Sword who were poisoning him. However, Zheng Qing suspected that it was just because the shop they went to was too 'old-school' and retained many of the ancient wizards' charms. living habit.

Secondly, the dark wizards pursued by the hunting team are not like the fudou and ogres in the silent forest. They have a strong sense of territory and a limited range of activities. Dark wizards can run, and run fast. In just one week of pursuit, the five young men of the Exoneration Hunting Team have traveled across three continents, entered seven Four Seasons, and had brief contact with more than a dozen wizard organizations of various sizes.

To be honest, this process was indeed quite informative. The only downside was that he was a little tired. Zheng Qing could not remember the last time he slept peacefully for four hours.

Finally, and most importantly, their hunt for the dark wizard is not like hunting alone in the hunting grounds. Each hunting team that performs a mission can obtain Trident Sword's abundant logistical supplies, ubiquitous personnel cooperation, and round-the-clock intelligence support.

Like now.

The Exoneration Hunting Team appeared in this small bar in Newcastle, northeastern England, because they received new information from behind. There were traces of the suspected target person using black magic in this area.

Jingle Bell.

The sound of wind chimes at the door lingered.

Zheng Qing's tired eyes swept across this small bar, and as expected, he saw many expressions of awe and uneasiness. When he started to perform the mission, seeing these expressions, the young public-funded student still felt quite proud of being "honored", and subconsciously maintained the "reservation" of the three-pronged sword.

But after making small mistakes over and over again, he was gradually able to read some hidden malice in those expressions of awe and uneasiness.

Those malicious owners may not really want to do anything to the alliance. Most of them just want to challenge the authority and see the "big guys" from the alliance being embarrassed.

Ta, ta, ta, ta.

The sound of the Three-pronged Sword Hunters' boots on the wooden floor could be heard clearly. From just a few meters away, Zheng Qing already had a rough understanding of the entire bar - this bar was probably quite old, and the walls around the bar It is covered with expired copies of the Beta Town Post. Many of the papers have turned dark yellow due to wax stains, and many of the portraits in the illustrations have their backs turned, using the back of their heads to protest their poor circumstances.

Speaking of wax, this bar still uses old-fashioned magic candles from hundreds of years ago. The smoke is thick and the light is dim. The lampstand hanging in mid-air is burning slowly. There is not even a group of light bugs in the huge room. .

Following the footsteps of the cat-faced wizards, the crowd that had gathered in front of the bar quietly separated into a long and narrow passage. Inexplicably, Zheng Qing's mind came to the scene of Moses crossing the Red Sea - in the museum of First University. There is an oil painting depicting that scene. This moment is exactly like that moment.

"welcome!"

A slightly awkward and exaggerated greeting from the bar owner came from behind the bar: "Dear guests, is there anything I can do for you?"

"Five glasses of Brown Light, and as for food..."

The fat wizard among the cat-faced wizards gave instructions in a mechanical and monotonous voice, and at the same time half-joked: "Is there anything edible here besides fish and chips?"

Although his voice is not pleasant because of the cat-face mask, and his lively tone is greatly weakened, his joking intention is very obvious. The originally depressed atmosphere in the bar suddenly relaxed a lot with this joke, and a few echoing laughter could be heard faintly in the crowd.

"Old Larry's clam chowder and slow-cooked dragon meat!"

The tall, fat wizard in the crowd loudly recommended: "This store is not far away. The dragon meat used in Old Larry's soup is purchased directly from Old Egg's house. It couldn't be fresher!"

Zheng Qing tilted his head slightly and sighed heavily in his heart.

He had just arrived in Newcastle when he heard a certain keyword mentioned in the intelligence, which made him speechless. Originally, he wanted to drink some wine with everyone in the store, eat some local specialties, and rest for a while.

Similar to him, the mood of several other hunters also became less wonderful.

The room was full of wizards, and everyone was particularly sensitive to Qi. Within a short period of time, the guests all felt the low pressure surrounding the cat-faced wizard. The tall, fat wizard who was trying to show his kindness did not know that he had done something wrong. What? There was a bit of uneasiness in the expression, and a few clever guys had already touched the door, planning to sneak away quietly.

Then they immediately discovered that the bar door was locked.

"Think about it quietly!"

Before the chaos broke out, Xiao Xiao opened the Dharma book and threw out a large-scale calming spell. At the same time, he explained in an indifferent voice: "The alliance mission is to hunt down the dark wizard. Don't be nervous... there will be no chaos..." There will be accidental injuries. If you are accidentally injured by us, it is not covered by most insurances.”

Like Fatty, he also told a joke.

It's just that his joke is relatively cold.

No one in the whole bar could laugh.
