Chapter 2612 New ‘Intuition’

The night was deep, and the moonlight and starlight mixed together and fell, forming patches of mottled light and shadow in the forest. The long-legged mushroom jumped out of the light and shadow, spitting out fist-sized balls of light, erasing the spots one by one, and the entire forest immediately became much brighter.

There was silence all around, no beasts roaring in the distance, no birds chirping in the trees, no insects humming in the bushes, even the leaves seemed to be frozen in the wind, making no rustling sound.

This depressing atmosphere felt very familiar to Zheng Qing, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it before.

"In what order are mask font sizes arranged?"

He stood behind the practical class teacher and tried his best to keep his tone relaxed.

"Of course it's based on strength! The more powerful the wizard, the higher the ranking." Hilda boasted, holding a slender bamboo stick in one hand and poking and beating in front of her, and raising the other hand to knock herself. The mask on his face seemed to remind the young assistant coach beside him to see his ranking clearly.

According to the order of 'A, B, C and D', this means that Hilda is the wizard second only to Zhang Yu, the acting leader of the assistant team, but Zheng Qing does not believe this conclusion at all.

He couldn't help but murmured a little.

"Thomas is much better than you!"

Zheng Qing thought of the Germanic wizard who introduced him to First University. He muttered, touched the mask on his face, and thought of another question: "...What is the font size on Thomas's mask?"

"Don't talk about this kind of thing while on a mission, it's not safe."

After Hilda straightened up, she gave the boy a lesson first, and then shook the bamboo stick in her hand: "Of course, everything here tonight is being monitored by the school's guardian circle, so it's not that dangerous... Thomas's current mask size is ' Geng' word.

"Now?" Zheng Qing keenly caught a qualifier and asked in surprise: "How could it be? I thought he was at least a 'C'..."

"That's because he made a mistake."

Hilda spoke vaguely, as if she had thought of something. She glanced back at the young teaching assistant and said thoughtfully: "Speaking of which, the mistake he made was related to witches... You should also pay more attention, witches are troublemakers. , If you can't, don't provoke her... You are still young... Even if you provoke her, don't provoke her too much. One girlfriend is enough. "

This sounds a bit weird.

And this topic has become a little bit sensitive for Zheng Qing recently.

He pretended not to understand Hilda's words, looked around, and mentioned another thing: "Why are the school working committee and teaching assistants the only ones on the investigation mission tonight? Why didn't the people from the Three-pronged Sword come?"

In my impression, every time an accident occurs in the school, the wizards with the three-pronged sword embroidered on their robes are very active, especially outside the school in areas that are theoretically under the jurisdiction of the alliance.

"Because Vice-Principal Shi resigned." Hilda gave Zheng Qing an unexpected answer.

"Ah?" Zheng Qing opened his mouth in confusion.

“Phuket is the Phuket of the first university, and then the Phuket of the league.”

The voice of the wizard wearing the 'B' mask suddenly became as quiet as a mosquito. If you don't pay close attention, you can hardly hear his words: "The three-pronged sword is the three-pronged sword of the alliance, but it is not the three-pronged sword of the school. Otherwise, why do you think? The Trident Sword's office has always been in Beta Town, not directly in the school? The alliance has always wanted to get its hands into the school, and for this reason, it even went so far as to make Nudd the director of the Trident Sword... Robert, Nudd? Nud... He was originally a disciple of Principal Shi. His strength was not very good, but he was versatile and good at doing things... Originally, according to this trend, the two sides could slowly get closer to each other until Principal Shi left the school to go to the Grand Wizard Conference... …A few of our young assistants analyzed privately that the league wanted to reach out to the school, and the school also wanted to reach out to the league, and the two-way process belonged to..."

This analysis is obviously more sensitive than the previous discussion of witches.

Zheng Qing's open mouth slowly closed.

He swallowed quietly.

It was just a casual chat at first, and I didn't expect to discuss such a profound topic with this guy.

"Where are the wizards in the North District? They are the parties involved, why didn't they come?" Zheng Qing tried his best to ignore Hilda's "private analysis by the teaching assistants", trying to make the chat easier.

"It's because they are the parties involved, so it's hard to send people here. This kind of avoidance is a routine tradition." Hilda didn't care about Zheng Qing's caution, and took his stick and beat the bushes everywhere: "Another On the other hand, the number of wizards who can come forward in the North District is really limited... Just like this situation tonight, if you want to participate in the investigation, you need to have a few registered wizards. Do you think there are a few more wizards in the North District besides the Great Sage? A truly qualified wizard?"

almost none.

Zheng Qing couldn't help but sigh deeply when he thought about the current situation where Nicholas could become the representative of outstanding wizards in the North District.

"Where is Beta Town? Didn't the Beta Town Management Committee send someone here? They..." Zheng Qing muttered and walked to Hilda's side unknowingly.

"Snapped!"

The stick in Hilda's hand hit the side of Zheng Qing's tibia, interrupting his mumbling. Zheng Qing felt pain and stopped while taking a small breath of cold air.

"Don't forget the mission while chatting... We are here to survey the site, not to have fun." The teacher of the practical class showed off the momentum in the classroom, taught the young assistant, and took off the long-handled tweezers hanging on his belt: "You need to Always pay attention to your steps and don’t miss any slight abnormalities... like this... ah, that’s it!”

Hilda cheered softly, picked up a dead leaf on the ground with tweezers, held it up to the moon, turned it over and observed it carefully, and murmured: "...I knew that this kind of thing could only be done by a dark wizard."

The cold moonlight fell on the withered leaves.

Zheng Qing could clearly see a group of black spots like coal tar condensed between the veins of the leaves, exuding an ominous aura. Just looking at it makes people feel sick and want to vomit.

"What's this?"

"The secretion of dark magic."

Hilda took out a glass bottle, threw the leaf in, and replied happily: "The area where the dark wizard appears is often accompanied by frequent murders, nightmares, epidemics, coal-tar-like secretions, and even large areas of vegetation. Death, restlessness of birds, animals, insects, fish, etc... you can understand it as a kind of 'symptom'."

For some reason, when he saw the pitch-black secretion of black magic, the only image that came to Zheng Qing's mind was that of a dead crow - this strong sense of déjà vu made him immediately think of his newly discovered 'ability' not long ago.

He also finally recalled another very familiar feeling tonight.

One night a few days ago, he had had a strange dream related to crows. In the dream, he was also in the Silent Forest and saw a circle of dead crows hanging on a scaffold.

The depressing atmosphere that night was exactly the same as today.
