Monster Hunting High School

June 13th.

Sunday.

Suitable: worship.

Unsuitable: breaking ground.

Neither the old almanac nor the school's astrology department predicted any astronomical risks. So when the solar eclipse appeared, the whole of Phuket was in chaos.

No one knew why the sun, which was still in the sky a minute ago, disappeared so quickly in the sky, as if there was really a big black mouth that swallowed it up.

It was not a natural phenomenon.

It could only be a man-made disaster.

The temporary ban signed by the two vice presidents and four deans of the First University quickly spread throughout Phuket. Shops were closed, streets were cleared, and First University provided emergency shelters for all residents of Phuket Island. Following the Black Prison Roar a year ago, the school's protective magic circle was deployed again to avoid major casualties or losses on the island as much as possible. All students were ordered to stay in the dormitory and were strictly prohibited from going out. Only some elite students who received the notice were allowed to participate in the patrol work of the teaching assistant team, but they were only allowed to move together within the protection range of the magic circle.

Phuket Island, which was usually bustling and noisy, fell into a dead silence in a short period of time.

Only wizards at the level of great wizards were allowed to move freely throughout the island.

The office of the school work committee and the professors' joint meeting was in chaos. The usually respected divination team received more accusations today than in a hundred years.

But they were speechless.

Pieces of tortoise shells exploded in the burning, and the thrown yarrow was messy like a spider web. Every time the tarot card was drawn, it was the wheel of fate. The fog in the crystal ball became particularly thick, and the fortune-tellers could not see anything clearly even if their eyes were sore.

Everyone knows that this is not something that ordinary wizards can get involved in.

But everyone still tries again and again in vain, hoping to catch a fleeting miracle.

Vice Principal Ruoyu's office.

The usually dark room is brightly lit today, with rows of bright Gublai fairy fires inserted diagonally on the tall and thick walls around, quietly spewing out leaping flames.

But in the eyes of middle and high-level wizards, the brightest thing in this office at this moment is not those fairy fires.

The breath of the legendary wizard is burning in a higher dimension, radiating around without scruples, shining through the thick walls and the powerful magic barrier of the school's protective array.

It's like the sun falling into the world, gently and powerfully declaring sovereignty in all directions, warning those covetous eyes that may have ulterior motives.

In the office, the stone statues that usually stalked in the shadows were now huddled in the corner of the room, trembling, fearing that they would cause dissatisfaction among the bigwigs and be easily ashesed.

Ruoyu.

Emma.

Lao Yao.

And Bao Yangzi.

Standing opposite each other.

Although he was only a great wizard, Bao Yangzi still had a calm expression in front of the three powerful wizards who exuded a legendary aura, without any fear.

"—— Before receiving the order from the principal, the relevant departments will not participate in any action." He expressed the position of the relevant departments to the three legendary wizards: "No matter whether the order comes from the school work committee, the professors' joint meeting, or anywhere else... Of course, we promise to always protect the school."

Professor Emma crossed her arms and looked at him deeply.

"That's enough." Lao Yao bit his pipe and laughed aside: "If you really take action casually, many people on the alliance side will feel uneasy."

Since the attitude has been made clear.

Master Bao Yangzi would not casually get involved in other school affairs. After saluting the three legends, he hurriedly left the office that even the great wizard felt depressed.

Bang!

The heavy door slammed shut behind Bao Yangzi.

The remaining three legends in the office all raised their heads and looked at the Tianji that had already been in a mess.

In the eyes of wizards of the legendary level, all magic is connected, especially divination. The ability to peek into the long river of fate allows legends to naturally have the ability of real whims. Any disturbance involving them will alarm them. The direction of the long river of fate is as clear as the lines on the palm. Even if the divergent future has countless possibilities, they can always find the one with the greatest possibility.

Unless the one who disturbs is another legend.

"——But it is impossible to disturb the secrets of heaven to this extent with just a legend." Elder Ruoyu leaned on his wolf-headed cane with both hands, slowly retracted his gaze, and said with a serious expression: "Although I don't think anyone will go crazy and come to the school to cause trouble, the Marginal Academy is about to be established, and there must be many old guys who want to fish in troubled waters. We must make corresponding plans..."

"It was fine in the morning, why did it suddenly become chaotic?"

Old Yao's eyebrows were twisted into a ball, and he muttered while puffing on his pipe, as if talking to himself: "——I haven't heard of any movement from those big ships or the barren land?"

Professor Emma looked serious and added: "The Alliance and the Wizard Council have not received any warnings. It cannot be ruled out that it is the other few..."

"It's not the Moonlight Council." As if knowing what she wanted to say, Elder Ruoyu spoke directly and interrupted: "They don't have this ability. It's not the Dark Council..."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly turned his head and looked to the west of Phuket Island, and his expression gradually sank.

Professor Emma pulled the corner of his mouth.

Revealing a hint of sarcasm.

But in the end, nothing more was said.

Lao Yao seemed to want to make a joke to lighten the atmosphere, but before he could open his mouth, he looked in the other direction in shock with a strange expression.

Professor Emma's mocking voice finally sounded.

"How interesting."

She glanced at the west and then at the north, with a hint of irrepressible anger in her voice: "During the last battle in Hell, the Dark Council was sneaky and had bad intentions. This time they actually dared to show up. ! Do you really think that without the principal, the school will become a soft persimmon that can be manipulated casually? "

Old Ruoyu twisted the crutch in his hand.

At the end of the Black Prison War, it was He who reached a reconciliation agreement with the Dark Speaker. In a sense, he gave the Dark Council a guarantee. Now that the other party chose such a sensitive time to come, it also made him feel embarrassed.

But Lao Yao kindly reminded me.

"The one to the west is the Six Fingers of the Dark Parliament. Everyone recognizes it." He pointed to the north with the finger holding the pipe: "But what about the one to the north? That aura doesn't look like it belongs to the Dark Parliament, but rather..."

He looked up at the stars.

It would be even more troublesome if the stars were involved in today's solar eclipse.

I just don’t know which big shot in Xingkong is coming.

Old Ruoyu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Six fingers over there, I'm going to see Him."

Now at the First University, he is the only one who has the ability to suppress the Speaker of the Dark Parliament, who is also a senior legend. Then he turned his eyes and looked at Professor Emma: "——Old Yao goes to see the guest from the north. You stay here." Next to Yuanshi' and 'Taiyi', as long as the protective circle is not broken, don't worry about anything. "

"Probably the only one who can arouse their interest is the Giant God Soldier." Old Yao nodded slightly and agreed.

"Do we need to have the pilots of Yuanshi and Taiyi on standby?" Professor Emma asked a slightly sensitive question.

The old man Ruoyu was silent for a moment.

Finally shook his head.

"No, don't alarm them for the time being. Korma has not finished running in with Yuanshi, and letting her control it now will directly kill the child. As for the other one... Taiyi's completion degree is less than 80%, what's the point of letting him be on standby? "Use?" Old Ruoyu tapped the crutch in his hand, and his figure gradually disappeared: "——I have informed Shi Hui that she will rush back to school as soon as possible."

The Gublai fairy fires on the wall all flashed.

When the fire light is normal again.

The figures of the three legends have disappeared into this large office, and only the breath of legends filling the air tells others about the anger of the big shots just now. The various monster stone statues huddled in the corner finally let out a sigh of relief, touched each other's buttocks, and quietly celebrated that they had escaped from a catastrophe.

…

…

"——This is a school ban. No student can leave the dormitory without permission."

Zhang Yu stood at the door of dormitory 403, with a straight face, and meticulously implemented the temporary injunction signed by the two vice presidents and four deans. At the same time, he seemed to casually remind: "In addition, our three classes are on duty together today. "

"Can't I let the clone cat out?" Zheng Qing tried to struggle.

"There are no exceptions mentioned in the ban." Zhang Yu shook his head and refused simply.

Zheng Qing retreated into the dormitory dejectedly.

Several other roommates may not have understood the meaning of the last words of the head of the teaching assistant team, but he knew it very well - the school assigned him three hunting teams of guards, three shifts taking turns, providing 24-hour close protection. His safety.

What Zhang Yu said about "on duty together" meant that there were fifteen wizards watching him outside at the moment.

Not to mention turning into a cat.

Even if a fly circles outside the dormitory twice more, it will probably be put into a glass bottle and carefully screened.

"Don't be anxious," Xiao Xiao comforted him from the side: "Everyone knows that something is going on outside, and no one will go out at this time... Jiang Yu is not the kind of person who doesn't distinguish between the serious and the serious."

Zheng Qing stretched his neck and looked out the window.

It was pitch dark outside.

Today, Sunday, Jiang Yu only has one 'Phoenix Language' class in the afternoon. He originally made an appointment with the witch to go shopping in Beta Town after class, buy some magic materials needed for the Dragon Boat Festival, and finally relax for the weekend to prepare for the upcoming final exam. .

No one expected that such a thing would happen suddenly.

Because the solar eclipse would cause serious magical interference to magical communication methods such as paper cranes and blue bird sound transmissions, he was unable to contact the witch at this moment.

"This should be the third time this semester that we have canceled weekend class meetings."

Fatty Xin bit the straw in his mouth and leaned against the bed, holding a glass of iced watermelon juice in his arms. His voice was a bit lazy - his focus seemed to always be so different.

But it is.

Class meetings have been canceled a little more frequently this semester.

But unlike the two temporary cancellation orders in the seventh or twelfth week due to anomalies in the Silent Forest, today's situation is obviously more serious.

"Do you think today's matter is related to the 'situations' we talked about before?" Zheng Qing looked at Xiao Xiao worriedly.

This week near the end of the term, the school has become particularly 'restless' - from the conflict between students and fishmen, to the friction between the Beta Town business group and the North District wizards, to the discord within Atlas Academy, etc. - Hardly a day goes by.

The low pressure that precedes the storm is felt by everyone.

But when the heavy rain really poured down, it still made people feel a little unprepared.

Xiao Xiao didn't answer, just holding the crystal ball and looking at the mist rolling inside intently. Instead, Dylan's head poked out from the top of the coffin, revealing his slightly pale face.

"I heard that some die-hard wizards in the alliance want to bring a big one to the North District. Do you think it's possible that what happened today is..." He gossiped about the rumors he heard from Yuexia's friends.

"It's impossible." Xiao Xiao suddenly said, interrupting Mr. Vampire Werewolf's speculation: "Mars has been shining for a long time. Even if the wizards in the North District are slaughtered, it will not have such a lasting impact on Mars... let alone There is a solar eclipse.”

He turned to look out the window.

The dark sky shrouded everything, and without the order of the Astrology Supervisor, there was not even a breath of wind on the campus.

"——A solar eclipse of this magnitude cannot be created by a few ordinary wizards."

Tuk Tuk!

Tuk-tuk-tuk!

There was a crisp knocking sound outside the window.

There seemed to be a spring under Zheng Qing's butt, which suddenly bounced him up and threw him onto the balcony. The fat wizard next to the balcony didn't even have time to get up.

"...You've never been so active before." He shrugged and teased in a vague voice. After all, he didn't bother anymore and continued to drink his watermelon juice.

Zheng Qing didn't pay attention to the low laughter behind him.

He opened the window and put the light blue paper crane into the room.

The wings of the paper crane were a little crooked, as if someone had violently dismantled them. Zheng Qing raised his eyebrows and glanced out the window with some dissatisfaction. In the end, he didn't say anything, lowered his head, and quickly opened the letter.

The witch's slender and beautiful handwriting immediately came into view.

He hadn't read anything yet, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

"——We probably won't be able to go out today. The agreement has been postponed! Let's talk under the cat fruit tree at the specific time next time! This letter was given by an elder in the family. You will receive feedback from me, so there is no need to reply! Review it carefully Do your homework! (_)”

He looked at the slightly playful smiling face at the end.

I couldn't help but laugh too.

…

…

Click.

Professor Monteria closed the small iron door of the laboratory.

He took one last longing look at the metal nameplate on the door.

Advanced magic text and bloodline research laboratory.

Then he raised his arm, and his skinny fingertips gently rubbed against the slightly soft surface of the brass. The harsh sound slowly dissipated. He turned around and pulled off the wide hood on his head. Step by step, The figure gradually merged with the rich darkness at the end of the corridor.
