When the fourteen hunters of the Ouroboros Hunting Team strode back under the leadership of Andrew Taylor, across the hunting ground of the Edge Hunting Team, the Exoneration Hunting Team on the other side was trying to contact the school under the leadership of their captain.
He was hesitating whether to stay where he was or go to support Linda Barnes' patrol.
Unlike the Ouroboros Hunting Team, the Sin Hunting Team's winter hunting areas are all located on the outermost side - meaning they have no rear base to retreat to.
And if you abandon your hunting grounds before the end of the winter hunting, at least half of your points will be deducted. Facing this dilemma with less than three hours left before the end of the winter hunting is really head-scratching.
Of course, another key factor in not retreating is that the school's protective formation has been fully deployed. They are isolated from the golden barrier and have no way out to continue retreating.
"Unable to contact the school."
After trying a variety of methods, the diviners of the Exoneration Hunting Team had to admit that the fully deployed school guardian circle was not just a physical isolation: "...observation room, hunting committee, student union, social union, school staff
The committee, as well as other professors, cannot be contacted."
Zheng Qing couldn't help but look up at the sky, wondering if Su Shijun was near them, had seen this scene, or if he should find a way to get in touch with her now.
"Divining the hunting team's next target, confirm where we are safer." After giving his instructions, he turned to look at Jiang Yu: "What do the other two hunting teams say?"
While previously ordering the doctor to report to the school, he also asked Jiang Yu to try to get in touch with the other two hunting teams in the neighboring hunting grounds on the left and right.
"There was no response from the Cheung Kei Hunting Team, and the Edge Hunting Team said they would be on standby... Feifei said they were establishing a safety barrier." At this point, she paused and added: "I also tried to contact a little further.
Most of the suggestions from ouroboros, school hunting team, Judgment, YPO and other hunting teams were to hide in place and stand by, and some hunting teams did not respond.”
Zheng Qing glanced at Fatty Xin.
Since the school's protective circle was fully deployed, the fat wizard no longer bothered to find his senior sister Linda, but at this moment his face was gloomy and terrifying, and he was obviously unwilling to stay where he was doing nothing.
As for the other three members of the hunting team, Lan Que and Dylan are both students of Starry Sky Academy, so their choice is self-evident. As for Zhang Jixin, on the first day they met him, everyone unanimously concluded that he had entered the wrong academy. This was also an attitude.
Radical militants.
All four members of a hunting team wanted to go out, and the other two had no clear objections.
After Zheng Qing weighed it, he gave the decision-making power to you, the tortoise shell in Xiao Xiao's hand.
"Have the divination results come out?"
Xiao Xiao pushed up his glasses, squinted and looked carefully at the zigzag cracks on the tortoise shell, his expression looking a little strange: "The divination shows that it will be dangerous for us to stay where we are... On the contrary, leaving the hunting ground and going to the depths of the Silent Forest
It’s actually very safe. I’ve tried two tortoise shells, and the results are the same.”
This is really a counter-intuitive conclusion.
At the same time, this conclusion also gave Zheng Qing his final determination.
"Maintain the first-level status of Bofu's battle formation, and be ready to upgrade at any time...At the last minute, each will check the spell books, talismans and emergency potions to confirm the status!"
The captain of the Exoneration Hunting Team raised his arm and waved it vigorously in mid-air: "Target, Senior Sister Linda who saved the fat man!"
…
…
"it's a pity."
"Why can't you just stay where you are?"
A slightly rough voice suddenly appeared, breaking the silence in the forest and snowfield. The legendary aura spreading from Fu Lumi seemed to be torn apart by these words, and the originally clear sky and earth seemed to have a touch of gray as a result.
Creak, creak, creak.
The sound of heavy footsteps was particularly harsh in the snow.
Accompanied by the sounds of voices and footsteps, two stocky figures, one tall and one short, walked around the huddled green dragon and appeared in front of the five patrol members, revealing their slightly ferocious faces and yellowed curved fangs.
.
They are two ogres.
And there are two two-headed ogres!
Linda Barnes immediately made a judgment in her heart, and immediately began to be wary of her surroundings - an ogre tribe that could support two two-headed ogres and a green dragon at the same time, even in the Silent Forest
It is also a relatively powerful force, and the number of ordinary ogres will definitely not be small.
However, she found no more traces of the ogre under several consecutive detection spells.
"Was that talisman drawn by the legendary wizard?"
The shorter ogre raised his head with difficulty and looked at Linda Barnes. It was a hoop-headed ogre. The new tumor under the jaw and eyebrows were blurred. There were seven discarded skulls stacked on the back of the head.
There are so many. According to the explanation of the "Wizard Encyclopedia", a two-headed ogre of this level is infinitely close to the great ogre, that is, the existence of the great wizard level.
Therefore, its sight is enough to cause heavy mental pressure on the witch.
A tall figure took a step forward and stood in front of Linda, isolating the pressure.
"Why stay where you are?"
The slightly dull questioning voice of the patrol leader made the witch breathe a sigh of relief: "We are sorry if we accidentally violated your hunting ground...it was an accident."
The ogres ignored Assistant Victor Victor's apology and just stared at them silently, seeming to be considering their next move, or in other words, they seemed to be very happy to waste the next time.
The assistant teacher made a few gestures with one hand behind his back, indicating to others to be prepared for conflicts at any time, and at the same time patiently waited for the other party's reply.
But the two ogres seemed like puppets that had lost their magic power. After finishing their first few words, they fell into a strange silence, and even their eyes became a little darker.
After a long while, Victor slowly took a step back and said tentatively: "If there are no other questions..."
His step seemed to trigger a switch, and the two ogres looked at him at the same time.
"You can't leave."
The slightly shorter hoop-headed ogre spoke again, but this time it added one more word:
"……temporary."
In other words, their purpose is just to tie the patrol here? What is their goal? School? Student hunting team participating in winter hunting? Or somewhere else?
Linda's thoughts were racing in her mind, and she held her breath at the same time. The fingertips of the hand holding the Dharma book turned white because of too much force.
She stared intently at the other yin-yang ogre - although it was bigger, the aura it exuded was much weaker than the other guy - her lips moved silently, and she quickly recited a few spells in her book of existence.
, so that it can be released through silent casting at any time.
The assistant teacher of the patrol team stopped and tilted his head. There didn't seem to be much surprise on his face.
"In other words, this was not an accident."
He concluded that in accordance with the patrol regulations issued by the school, he made a last attempt to peacefully resolve the trouble at hand: "We are the First University Winter Hunting Patrol Team and have official duties. In accordance with the "First University Management Regulations" and "Peaceful Coexistence on Phuket Island"
Agreement" and the "Silent Forest Code of Conduct", we have the right to ask you to leave this area..."
Classmate Linda rolled her eyes in her heart - this leader is indeed from Starry Sky Academy, and even the word 'peace negotiation' sounds full of threats.
"You can't leave here." The hoop-headed ogre repeated these words mechanically.
