Chapter Twenty-Eight: Life is Like a Play
Edison was now like an ape, hanging high on a dark tree and looking down at everything below.
At first, the trio's arrival was not noticed because his attention was drawn to the tricolor deer below.
But when the three of them ran at great speed, and occupied several key positions in the woods, and began to search for something step by step, the most sluggish people reacted, and the three men were the pursuers.
Moreover, this forest can only be regarded as a square plantation of about 66 feet (20) meters in length and width, which is not a large area, and the angle from which the three men entered the forest was extremely clever.
If someone uses a ruler to measure, they will find that the three people do not see each other, but the distance between the three and the pace of continuous progress are very consistent, just like a shrinking equilateral triangle, little by little searching and compressing the activity space of the prey. This seems to be difficult to do in the eyes of outsiders, but it is the "unity" warrior technique derived from the spirit of "honesty" as the core - [Triangle Battle Array].
And the three-color deer, as a timid herbivorous beast, was chased and killed by these three people for most of the day, but it was like a frightened bird, as soon as he saw the figure of any of the three and the deliberate footsteps, he couldn't help but turn his head and run in a different direction.
So, in Edison's eyes, such a funny scene was staged, the tricolor deer kept running back and forth in the forest in a different direction, but after a while it always turned around and ran back to the original place, and as the three of them pressed step by step, it turned around more and more times, but there were fewer and fewer places to escape and hide.
So when it finally stopped, the distance between the three people and it was less than ten steps. And the little physical strength it had just recovered after eating the trees was also consumed by most of it, and it could only gasp for breath. Leaning against a dark tree, he stared at the three people in front of him in panic.
The whole process lasted less than 5 minutes, but the three of them were only surrounded by a speed that was neither fast nor slow. can force a third-level demonic beast to this, and the hunting literacy shown in it also makes Edison, who has been staying in the tree and watching the whole process, can't help but feel a little chilly.
......
And after seeing the trapped tricolor deer, the three of them were not in a hurry to make a move.
Suddenly, one of the people who seemed to be the leader looked up and said, "That friend in the tree, we have no ill will, come down!"
A wry smile appeared on the corner of Edison's mouth, knowing that he couldn't hide it anymore, and in fact, the branches scattered by the "bird's nest" on the ground also exposed him.
But if Edison had encountered a caravan, he would have run down long ago. But what the wild is most afraid of encountering is this kind of lone hunting group with few members, because they basically have only one purpose - to seek wealth. They are potential raiders in the wilderness, and it is not uncommon to hunt monsters today and humans tomorrow.
In this regard, Edison could only say loudly: "If you have something to say, I am camping here, and it was this monster that broke in first and destroyed the place I built, you are so lucky that you can catch such a three-color deer." ”
In a nutshell, Edison both pointed out the fact that he did not intentionally hide here. He also praised the three of them a little, expressing his goodwill not to compete with them for prey. Generally speaking, if the hunting group is not willing to make a mistake, it will no longer embarrass Edison.
It's a pity for these three people. Hunting the tricolor deer is just a bit of extra money, and capturing the target alive is their goal.
So at the signal of the leader, the thirty-seventh spoke first: "We have no ill intentions. Come down first, and see if you recognize this person. If you know, how about telling us about him?" said a wanted bounty from the Magic Guild and appeared in their hands.
Actually, although that bounty wanted is real. But what the trio really wanted to see was his face.
The portrait of Edison will only be shown after the visitor confirms that it is not the target, and those who have seen the portrait, regardless of whether they know about Edison or not, will be killed by these people to prevent leakage.
......
Edison was stunned when he heard this, and his mind turned sharply, and he thought to himself: "Isn't this posture a bounty hunter? But these people have a bad attitude, and they can't believe it all, what if they want to trick me into approaching and robbing me again?"
So, his face sank, he pretended to be serious, and asked loudly, "What do you mean by this, are you challenging the dignity of a magician?"
As he spoke, a ball of fire fell from Edison's hand on the branch of the pine tree on the ground, and the already baked branch was quickly ignited, illuminating a small clearing nearby, and the sudden appearance of the fire startled the tricolor deer, which also showed Edison's strength. At such a time, the hunting group of sensible hunters will no longer bother a magician, because it is not worth it!
But in this series of actions, Edison also unconsciously exposed part of his face, young voice and basic body shape.
So, something strange happened to Edison, with his ability, he didn't feel the retreat or hesitation in the three people, but after being shocked, Edison felt a sense of relief and surprise from the three people.
Edison was puzzled by this situation, but his vigilance was even stronger, especially after he heard the three of them get together and say something like this.
......
No. 37 was the first to lose his breath, and I saw that he took the initiative to give up the encirclement of the tricolor deer, ran to the leader's side, and asked in a low voice, "No. 13, do you say this is the target?"
And the leading No. 13 said angrily: "What nonsense, whether it is or not, you deceive people first." On the other side, Eighty-Six, who didn't speak much, nodded quickly and echoed Thirteen's suggestion.
In fact, even a magician, without blessing the [Ears of the Bat Beast], it would be very good to be able to hear a few syllables of conversation at that distance, but Edison's hearing was too good, so these words entered his ears word for word.
......
After the discussion was over, a kind smile appeared on the faces of the three of them, and No. 13 skillfully put on a flattering expression, and said in a slightly exaggerated tone:
"Oh, Your Excellency turned out to be a noble magician! Our three brothers are just passing adventurers, I wonder if this magician is interested in our prey?
These words can not only satisfy the vanity of the young magicians and dispel their guards, but also conform to their own identity as adventurers, and put on the posture of a money hyena. Normally, any magician who hears these words will be wary of them and will be tempted to buy them.
And Edison's reaction was not beyond their expectations, after a rise and fall, with the blessing of the [Feather Falling Technique], Edison appeared ten steps away from them, and then said: "Okay! Then you can slaughter it first!"
Five paces away, the tricolor deer, trembling by a series of accidents, suddenly stopped shaking and looked blankly at Edison's finger pointing at it. (To be continued.) )
