Chapter 655: Shadow Killing Array
The moon had passed midday, and the camp had gradually calmed down, the air was filled with the pungent smell of blood, some of the instructors and demon hunters on night duty were still patrolling back and forth, and the sound of whispering came from the students' tents, for these students who had just experienced such a battle, it might have become a luxury to sleep peacefully.
In general, the loss of the academy this time was not large, and there were only twenty or thirty students in total, which was already a small amount for a team of two or three thousand people.
There will be some students who will stay here forever every year, and there is nothing strange about it, although this time it is a little tricky, but there is no shock, but the news that Jingchen, who is the first in the freshman ranking battle, is buried in the mouth of the Warcraft, but it is more or less regretful for these mentors.
As for the reason why the academy has not lost much, first of all, the strength of the mentors is very strong, and secondly, it has to be said that the strength of these students is generally higher than that of the demon hunters, and they are all under the protection of the mentors, unlike the demon hunters, who are loose and fight on their own.
On the other hand, on the side of the Demon Hunter Guild, the losses were much higher, more than 1,000 people lost more than 200 people in this battle alone.
Inside the Xingmochen tent.
"You did a great job this time. Xing Mochen sat in his tent, with an elegant smile on his face, but the flashing eyes ruined his image.
"Thank you, young master, for the compliment. One of the two black-clothed men standing in front of Xing Mochen replied.
Smiling slightly, he rubbed the bridge of his nose with his right hand, "What's the matter?"
"Uh......" The two men in black were silent for a while.
"Say ......" Xing Mochen raised his eyebrows and said coldly.
"Yes, young master, the master said let us tell you, if you act without permission, be careful...... Be careful...... He ...... "The man in black who spoke peeked at Xing Mochen as he spoke, and when he saw that his face was getting more and more ugly, he didn't dare to say any more.
"Go on!" there was still a hint of elegance in Xing Mochen's voice, cold, and even the air was condensed.
"Yes, the master said that he will let the head of the family revoke your qualifications as a young master. The man in black finally mustered up the courage to speak, and after Xing Mochen heard this, a trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes, but the fierceness disappeared in an instant.
Smiling slightly, Xing Mochen said, "It's also that I'm confused, I didn't think so much for a while, you go back and talk to the master for me, it won't be in the future." At this moment, Xing Mochen still had the scary look on his face just now, and the two black-clothed people were also stunned when they saw it, and nodded with a confused expression.
Xing Mochen asked casually, "Is there anything else?"
"No, I'm here to tell you about that. Hearing Xing Mochen's question, the two hurriedly replied.
"Well, I know, I'll give you a great credit, I can't treat you badly when I go back, go ahead. Xing Mochen waved his hand, then turned around and stopped looking at the two. The two of them also knew each other, and seeing that the purpose of inviting Xing Mochen had been achieved, they said goodbye, and then withdrew from the tent where Xing Mochen lived, turned into two black shadows, and disappeared into the night.
"Old fellow, don't you just want to find an excuse to get me down, you want my second brother to be the waste in charge, isn't it just that you like that idiot and are willing to be controlled by you. Sensing that the two of them had gone away, Xing Mochen seemed to muttered to himself.
There was nothing to say all night, and the team started as usual early the next morning, and continued to walk towards the depths of the Demon Beast Mountain Range, I don't know if it was because the beast tide was too big last night, or if the beast tide attracted all the demonic beasts within a radius of a hundred miles, in short, in the next few days, there was almost no shadow of the demonic beasts, which made the originally tense nerves of the mentors and the high-level leaders of the Demon Hunter Guild feel a lot more at ease.
The haze that has been lingering in the hearts of many high-level executives has gradually faded away, and some people mentioned it at the beginning, but no one has mentioned it anymore, and many people feel that it is just their own worry.
Seven days have passed since the night of the beast tide raid, and on the fourth day, the shadow of the monster appeared again in the forest, which allowed the academy to continue the training process that had to be stalled, those second-year students who participated in the experience for the first time have been strictly required not to leave the camp for more than one kilometer, and the third- and fourth-year students have also been asked to go together when carrying out the operation, although this may reduce the effect of the experience, but after all, safety is the first.
In the largest tent in the camp, a group of demon hunters, guilds, and the upper echelons of the academy gathered.
"The academy notice signed by Dean Ling Feng has decided that this time our academy experience will be carried out in this Duolun Lake, and we will not continue to go deeper. "This time, the hospital is in charge, and Director Dowler said with his eyes slightly drooping.
"Director Dowler, this doesn't seem to be a bit suitable for some third-year and most fourth-year students, right?" sat behind Soko, an old man in a magician's robe with gray hair wondered.
"This is a decision made by the top management of the academy, and we are responsible for the lives of our students. Director Dowler said calmly.
"But ......" the old man wanted to say something, but Soko waved his hand to stop him.
Director Dowler is right, after all, these students are just children, they lack too much experience, and the situation this time is a bit abnormal, and it is really not suitable for in-depth study. Soko said slowly, to be honest, he didn't think there was any benefit to cooperating with Zeus Academy this time, although the instructor of Zeus Academy was strong, but in the same way, the students were a group of rookies, if something happened, it would be good if they didn't make a mess, and they didn't expect those children to be able to take charge of themselves at all, but it was just because of the president's decision, it was not easy to refute.
"Yes, the hospital also thinks so, then let's break up tomorrow. Director Dowler's originally tense face also relaxed at this moment, to be honest, he was really a little afraid of falling out with Soko because of this matter, after all, he was not reasonable in this matter, and the Demon Hunter Branch of Moon Lei City and Zeus Academy had maintained a good relationship for many years, and it was really not worth it to destroy the relationship between the two for this matter.
After solving this problem, everyone chatted for a while, then got up and dispersed, but everyone didn't notice that a trace of resentment flashed in the eyes of the gray-haired old magician.
Early the next morning.
The Warcraft Mountain Range under the morning sun is extremely quiet, perhaps only this moment is the most peaceful and harmonious time, there will be no fighting, there will be no death, there is a fresh smell in the air, many demon hunters already know that they are going to continue to drive today, and the academy will stay here, they are packing their things, preparing to leave here with the team, and most of the students are making their own breakfast, as mentioned earlier, the main source of food that enters the Warcraft Mountain Range is roasted Warcraft meat.
Deep in the dense forest, Jingchen, who was lying on a tree branch, stretched his waist and muttered to himself, "It's another day." Then he was a little puzzled, "Elder Li, could it be that we guessed wrong? Those people have other purposes?"
"I don't know what the purpose is, but it's definitely related to this Demon Hunter Guild and the centaurs of your academy, why, it's only been eight days and you can't hold your breath?"
"That's not it, it's just Yanran's business......" Jingchen hesitated and didn't continue.
Rios sighed, "Don't think too much about it, even if you go to find it, this vast Demon Beast Mountain Range is like looking for a needle in a haystack, you can't do it, let's take a look, if it really doesn't work, we'll find a way." ”
Hearing this, Jingchen also nodded, as Rios said, even if he let himself go to find it, he didn't know where to start, and sighed lightly, "For the time being, it can only be like this." ”
Without further ado, he took out a roasted deer thigh and bit it down, and this was his breakfast.
The ground-splitting deer is a very violent magical beast, different from other deer monsters, the ground-splitting deer is used to walking alone, because it has a good affinity with the earth element, the earth-splitting deer can cast some earth-based first-level magic, Jingchen really spent a lot of means to deal with this half-footed earth-splitting deer that stepped into the fourth-level, but then again, the meat of this earth-splitting deer is still very tasty, and it can be regarded as the best kind of meat in the past few days.
"The Demon Hunter Guild and the Academy's teams are separated. Just as Jingchen had just finished eating the roasted deer leg, Ríos' voice rang out.
"Separated?" Jing Chen asked with some confusion, according to what Mentor Yingge said at the beginning, the joint expedition group would have to act together for at least ten days or so before they separated, and now it was only the eighth day.
"Maybe it was the beast tide a few days ago, and the hospital decided temporarily. Rios guessed that he really couldn't think of any other plausible reason other than that.
The sky was a little hazy, and the Demon Hunter Guild walked out of the camp, gradually walking farther and farther until they disappeared into the depths of the forest.
At noon, the people of the Demon Hunter Guild came to a relatively low-lying area, and Jing Chen, who was following in the distance, could only rely on Rios's perception to track this group of people, after all, there were many people in the team who were good at exploration, and Jing Chen's level, if he got close, it was easy to find.
"Rest in place!" shouted Vice President Soko.
A group of members of the Demon Hunter Guild sat on the ground, everyone gathered together, in such a large and complex mountain forest, although it was easy to be discovered by the Demon Beasts when they gathered together, it was relatively safe, and some ordinary Demon Beasts would definitely not dare to provoke them.
Now this location is considered to be deep into the periphery of the Demon Beast Mountain Range, but the density of trees is much lower, and the sunlight can shine in directly, and some traces of large demonic beasts can already be seen in the forest.
Just as everyone was resting, the sun was obscured by dark clouds at some point, and gradually, a faint mist floated up, and among the people of the Demon Hunter Guild, a few strong people frowned slightly.
"It's a miasma!" shouted an old man in a green robe, and he could tell by looking at his clothes that it was a druid.
"Quick...... Fast...... Cover your mouth and nose with a damp cloth. Hearing the old man's words, the demon hunters shouted one after another.
Many demon hunters, who had not finished eating, frantically tore off a piece of cloth from their clothes, dipped it with water, and covered their mouths and noses.
"Everybody stay in formation and go fast. Vice President Soko shouted.
Just as the demon hunters were about to leave the place quickly, a rustling sound sounded in the thickening miasma.
"Be careful...... As soon as a person shouted these two words, his throat seemed to be choked by something, and he lost his words.
Immediately afterward, more and more people shouted, "Enemy attack ......", "Beware of enemy attack ......"
Just when all the demon hunters drew their weapons and prepared to meet the enemy, the rustling sound became more and more, only to see a large number of black-clothed shadows flashing out of the poisonous miasma, these shadows were like flying flotsam, shuttling back and forth, each time taking away a fresh life, these people will not fight with the demon hunters, one blow will leave, even if they do not die, there will be other shadows to continue to harvest the lives of these demon hunters.
It was a massacre, and before the countless demon hunters could call for help, they had already turned into a cold corpse, and Jingchen in the distance could clearly witness the scene through the eyes of the beast that Rios had taught him.
"Is this ......?" Jingchen's forehead was already in a slight cold sweat.
"This should be the Druid of the ShadowClan, the ShadowClan Assassin you call it. Ríos' voice was a little low, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Shadow Clan?Shadow of the Soul Thirst?" Jing Chen said this name that impressed him with some disbelief and was also very hated, at this moment, he couldn't help but think of his father-in-law Lin Ba, if it wasn't for his father's gift, how could he know Rios, an ancient powerhouse.
"You can't be wrong, this is their secret technique, the Shadow Killing Array. ”
"Shadow Killing Array, Formation, Formation Warlock?"
"It's not a formation of the Warlock, it's a battle formation, it can also be called a combination technique, or a combined attack technique, which requires a lot of people to cast together, which can make the friendly targets in the battle array ignore the poisonous miasma, and can increase the movement and attack speed of the friendly targets. Rios said slowly, paused, and continued, "But this kind of battle formation was not common even in my time, and it seems that this soulthirsty shadow is not simple. ”
Listening to Rios's words, Jingchen also frowned slightly, and secretly said in his heart, this trip to the Demon Beast Mountain Range seems to be full of trouble.
