Since meeting Sir Friedman last night, Matthew Cullen had a sleepless night, tossing and turning.
Not only because of the Jazz's high regard for him, but also because of the task that the Jazz gave him: to form a freshman hunting team, participate in the freshman hunting competition of the school hunting club, and then come out on top - no matter what, we must
Suppressing Soprano's limelight.
This isn't Matthew's first time hunting.
When he was at Cullen Castle, whether it was the annual spring and autumn hunting trip to Badmington, or other friendship invitations between noble young wizards under the moon, Matthew had participated in dozens of large hunting parties since he was a child.
Already.
But this time is obviously different from the past.
Because as a captain, he will lead a hunting team to participate in a large hunting party that is quite famous in the entire wizarding world - although he is only participating in a derivative event of the Academy Cup, it is still part of the schedule.
Regular competition.
The only thing that worries the young vampire is that his hunting team has not yet been formed.
A complete hunting team includes a main hunter, two auxiliary hunters, a hunter, and a ranger, a total of five official members. A slightly more formal hunting team will also be enriched with a few more followers.
Replenish hunters to replace players in poor condition between different schedules.
As for Matthew's hunting team, not to mention the alternate seats, he has not even assembled the five official hunters yet.
Of course, it doesn't mean that it will be difficult to find a freshman who wants to join his hunting team. [] Matthew has never worried about this. He believes that as long as he opens his mouth, he wants to be on good terms with the Cullen family.
The young wizard must be like the prince across the river.
Matthew just wants to find a candidate who can match the existing hunting team members and satisfy Jazz.
For example, Jiang Yu in the class, or Downton.
No matter in terms of family background or ability, these two people are top candidates.
However, when he communicated with the first candidate, he discovered something not very good.
"Freshman Hunting Competition?" After Jiang Yu heard Matthew's invitation, she raised her eyebrows in surprise: "What, you also plan to participate in the Freshman Hunting Competition? I thought you looked down on this level of hunting competition."
"Also?" Matthew was keenly aware of Squad Leader Jiang's unfinished words and couldn't help asking: "Have you already joined other hunting teams? Or, is there anyone else who has invited you?"
Before Jiang Yu could speak, Li Meng next to him spoke with an unhappy face.
"What do you mean 'someone else invites you'!" the little witch parroted and hummed angrily: "My cousin has great magic power and outstanding talent...there are many headhunters looking for her!"
Matthew looked at the angry little witch in shock, wondering where he had offended her.
"Mengmeng!" Jiang Yu stretched out two green and white fingers and pinched Li Meng's ears.
Li Meng pouted and glared at the vampire in front of him.
"I'm sorry," Jiang Yu smiled apologetically at Matthew, first apologizing for Li Meng's rudeness, and then explained: "I didn't join any hunting team... but other people did come to see me.
"
Matthew couldn't help but frown.
"Are you from our class?" he couldn't help but ask.
"They are from our class... Downton is also forming his own hunting team." Jiang Yu did not show off, but reminded: "If you plan to recruit people in our class, then you have to go faster... maybe you can
Have a chat with Downton so that you can miss the same target candidates."
This advice is very pertinent.
But the content made Matthew extremely disappointed.
Because what Jiang Yu revealed in this sentence clearly told the young vampire that his number two target candidate had also failed.
"As for myself..." Squad Leader Jiang smiled apologetically at Matthew: "I'm really sorry... Due to some other reasons, I won't consider participating in this year's school hunting party for the time being."
"My cousin has other big things to be busy with!" Li Meng held onto Jiang Yu's arm and whispered beside her.
Jiang Yu calmly tugged on the corner of the little witch's robe, signaling her to shut up.
Matthew finally turned around and left disappointed.
Behind him, two witches, one large and one small, were arguing quietly.
"Can't you just calm down a little bit?!" This was Jiang Yu's scolding voice.
"He was the one who was rude first..." Li Meng was obviously a little unconvinced.
"He is a noble under the moon, and he has been growing up in the Cullen family's castle. It is inevitable that he will not understand the world... Do you also sleep in a coffin all day long?"
Matthew's ears twitched, pretending not to hear the whispers of the two witches, and strode towards Downton.
I didn't sleep in a coffin all day!
Although the young vampire felt a little unhappy in his heart, when he saw the tall figure not far away, he still tried to cheer up and said hello with a smile.
"You also need to form a hunting team." After listening to Matthew's words, Downton scratched his head and spread his hands, looking a little helpless: "It seems that this year's freshman hunting competition is a bit lively... Hahahaha."
Downton's voice was so rich that it made Matthew's ears buzz.
Coupled with the fact that vampires have extremely sharp hearing, this made him even more uncomfortable.
"I originally planned to invite you to be the main hunter in my hunting team..." Matthew still refused to give up, and even gave up his hunting position, hoping to attract Downton to change his mind.
But his efforts were still fruitless.
"If I had not formed my own hunting team, I would definitely agree to your invitation." Downton declined him very politely.
as I thought.
Matthew sighed and turned his eyes involuntarily to the wizards sitting in the back row of the classroom.
Although Zheng Qing is the recipient of the Order of Merlin, there are some conflicts between him and the knight, which can be ruled out. The young vampire's eyes were the first to pass over the young public-funded student.
Then he looked at several other people.
A child from the Zhang family, a Big Blue, and a special admissions student.
"If you plan to find a few of them, I advise you not to hit the wall." As if aware of Matthew's thoughts, Downton reminded from the side: "I have invited Zhang Jixin before... but he didn't agree."
Matthew turned back and gave him a confused look.
"They also organized a hunting team." Downton shrugged and told Matthew some bad news: "If I guess correctly, they are all in that hunting team."
"Is there anyone in our class who has not joined the hunting team?" Matthew's tone was a little frustrated, and his expression looked a little annoyed.
When he promised Jazz last night, he didn't expect to encounter so much trouble today.
"If you just want to find a candidate who is more in line with the 'Alpha traits', maybe you can ask those transfer students." Downton emphasized the words 'Alpha traits'.
Matthew felt that his gaze was slightly meaningful, he nodded involuntarily, turned around and walked away awkwardly.
