At the end of the first quarter moon, the half-full moon faces west.
The cold moonlight casts a hazy silver gauze over the dark night, making the whole world more alive and less boring.
Outside the school, deep in a semi-abandoned hunting ground near the Silent River, a ball of earth-yellow flame-shaped afterbirth was beating slowly like a heart.
This hunting ground is still the one used during the last training of the Sin Hunting Team. Although there was an accident involving the mutated Gatrash, on the one hand, no real accident occurred, and on the other hand, the school was also very curious about who it was.
Something was going on, so not only did they not close the hunting ground, but they repeatedly reminded the Exoneration Hunting Team to train on time and not to waste school resources.
In other words, Zheng Qing and his hunting team have become a group of delicious bait. This is why he feels uneasy about Poseidon and those little wizards following him to the hunting ground.
But conversely, the young public-sponsored students also doubted whether the wizards who had the courage to cause trouble in First University would not have the brains to appear in this hunting ground for the second time. From this point of view, compared with other corners of the school,
Compared to this, this semi-abandoned hunting ground seems safer.
Back to business.
The number of hunters participating in the training today has reached the highest peak since the training, and almost all of them are on the battlefield. For the five-person standard hunting team, this means that there will always be two hunters on the bench.
Jiang Yu was the first to go out and took over the important task of looking after the little witches and Poseidon; followed closely by the usually taciturn Blue Bird, who also came out and expressed his willingness to take the alternate seat.
Zheng Qing was noncommittal about this.
The reason he didn't deny it was because the two hunters really needed to stay outside; and the reason he didn't agree was because he had another consideration for the hunting team's training.
In a formal hunting competition, every contestant may have an accident. When an accident occurs, the existence of alternate members is very important. If you want to maintain a hunting team that is proficient in the second-level battle formation, then not only the players who are on the field will
The five hunters need to be familiar with the positioning of the formation, and the hunters on the bench also have the same need.
Therefore, he planned to train with the currently determined lineup first, and then rotate it. However, before the second-level battle formation was actually deployed, and without knowing the difficulty of deployment, he was not sure about the feasibility of this idea.
Facts have proved that the wizard's caution is justified.
The first-level form of Bofu's battle formation is very simple. The Sin Hunters' solid foundation and the proficiency accumulated from previous trainings make the first-level battle formation unfold particularly smoothly. The raised afterbirth is thin and even, the magic flame is pure, and
As for the hunting team, they changed their formation and movement speed several times, but maintained the stability of the battle formation.
But when the hunting team began to try the second-level transformation, the difficulty suddenly increased.
"Keep the distance! Keep the distance! Keep! Keep the distance! Don't keep the distance!" Zhang Jixin was in the center of the battle formation, trying to maintain the magic circle stacked around him while shouting inconsistent orders: "...Fat man
, you were too slow and too far away, and you tore off the second layer of the inverted triangle formation!"
Unlike the first-order battle formation, which only needs to pay attention to the movement of the feet and changes in the formation diagram, the second-order battle formation is relatively more 'three-dimensional'. For example, the first-order battle formation is a flat formation drawn on parchment, while the second-order battle formation is a flat formation drawn on parchment.
The battle formation is four or five parchments stacked together, with different formations drawn on each parchment.
In other words, when the second-level transformation is carried out, the hunters not only need to maintain the correct position, but also need to accurately grasp different magic formulas, recite different spells, and capture the rhythm of the fluctuations in the air, trying their best to maintain themselves and other teammates.
'harmony' between.
For a group of sophomores, these requirements are indeed a bit high.
"It's none of my business!" Fatty Xin was not a good-tempered guy either. After hearing the red-faced wizard's accusation, he rolled his eyes strangely: "...When I was the formation's eye, the second-level expansion went very smoothly.
You are stumbling here, but instead of looking for your own problems, you blame me?"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Zhang Jixin was speechless.
Because what Xin said is indeed the truth.
After entering the hunting ground, the Forgiveness Hunting Team has adjusted its formation four times, with different hunters taking charge of the formation. Except for the time when Fatty Xin served as the formation, the hunting team barely managed to successfully deploy the second-level formation, transforming into a translucent head and body.
Except for the giant, which is still glowing with a hazy khaki color, several other attempts have failed.
With good luck, for example, when Xiao Xiao served as the formation's eye, the giant he transformed into was only slightly shorter - only about three meters tall, which was not as powerful as Fatty Xin's blue giant.
For example, when Dylan served as the formation's eye, the giant he transformed directly turned into a huge skeleton, and it was also a weird skeleton with a deformed skull and no ribs.
It made the group of little witches watching the game laugh out loud.
Zhang Jixin's result as the formation keeper this time was neither good nor bad. He summoned a fairly standard Bofu giant, estimated to be ten meters tall. However, this giant was slightly 'disabled' and lacked
One of his legs was broken, so that as soon as he took a step forward, he fell to the ground, and the formation also broke down.
"Don't make any noise, don't make any noise."
Zheng Qing started to make peace with the mud, and comforted him: "Tonight is the first time I try it, and there will inevitably be mistakes. I remember when we first learned the binding spell, Li Meng could get distracted even if he chanted the spell..."
"Have you brought yourself to Li Meng's level?" The red-faced wizard glanced sideways at the hunting team leader.
After Zheng Qing choked, he was not angry. He was still smiling and comforted: "...On the contrary, I think if Li Meng practices our battle formation, he might perform better than everyone else."
"Spirit witches are indeed more adaptable to mimicry changes." The fortune teller from the Exoneration Hunting Team nodded in agreement - as soon as he opened his mouth, Zhang Jixin, who was about to choke, immediately shut up.
"bingo!"
Zheng Qing snapped his fingers and nodded to Fatty Xin: "Just like Xin, in the four attempts just now, he performed the best as a formation guard. Why? I think it is most likely related to his status as Big Blue...because he
I am familiar with the feeling of transforming into a giant, so when the battle formation unfolds, I can capture the subtle changes in the fluctuations of the formation to the greatest extent. This is something that the rest of us do not possess."
Xiao Xiao nodded in agreement, pushed up his glasses, and added: "In addition, there is another point worth noting, that is, the changes in the formation are very closely related to the 'characteristics' of the hunter who presides over the formation... This is why
Dylan will transform into a giant skeleton."
"And you transformed into a dwarf." Mr. Vampire Werewolf retorted.
When the others heard this, they all showed knowing smiles, and the originally anxious and tense atmosphere due to training was gradually relieved.
