Chapter 258: Puppets

With less than two hours left before the start of the freshman competition, the hunters of the Guilty Hunting Team finally left the 403 dormitory and set off for the meeting place provided by the Hunting Committee.

Of course, they didn't forget to move the sleeping Zheng Qing to a soft flying carpet.

The blanket floated more than a meter above the ground, and the blanket was made of fine wool and looked very comfortable - which satisfied the 'consciousness' of the young scholarship student a little.

"I borrowed this blanket from Barash Sasanian," Xin said, proudly showing off his connections to his peers: "He is a member of the ethics review committee of the editorial board of the school newspaper, a second-year student in Atlas, and a Zoroastrian believer...... I remember that you called this sect the Jacket Sect over there?"

"ZΕ‘enian, that word is pronounced xian." Xiao Xiao glanced at the fat man silently, and added: "You can also use the names Zoroastrianism and Manichaeism, for most people, you can't tell the subtle differences. ”

Lin Guo couldn't straighten up with a smile on the side.

Xin obviously didn't like the doctor's suggestion, so she walked at the front of the line with a stinky face and a flying carpet. Therefore, when he saw the divination professor standing under a plane tree on the boulevard, he had to be the first to stop and bow and say hello.

"Good afternoon, Professor. The fat man nodded his head laboriously.

"Oh, oh, yes, okay. Professor Yi seemed to be a little out of the world, and it took him a while to react, and his eyes swept over the group of young wizards with hazy eyes: "Are you going to watch the hunting competition?" Yes, yes, there will be a wonderful game today......

"Our hunting team for the competition. Zhang Jixin had to stand up and protect the reputation of his hunting team, even though their new hunting team had little reputation in the first place.

Professor Yi vaguely agreed, and continued to kick and tap around the deciduous plane tree next to him.

"What are you looking for, Professor?" Xiao Xiao was clearly interested in Professor Yi's behavior.

"Inspiration. The professor stopped, stretched out a finger, tapped his temple, and whispered, "It's the sounds that bulging and bulging in your head, you need to find where they are hiding...... As a soothsayer, there is nothing more important than following inspiration. ”

"Then did you find it?" Lin Guo also asked curiously.

The professor did not answer directly, but lowered his head and frowned, revealing a look of contemplation: "When I got up in the morning, the rooster that crowed told me that at this time in this place, I would have unexpected gains......"

"An unexpected gain?"

"It could be the notebook I lost in college, or it could be a bouquet of lilacs, or a piece of blue cheese, or of course, a new whip. Professor Yi muttered, guessing.

The young wizards shuddered.

I don't know if it's because of that strange ingredient or that chilling stick.

"In that case, then we won't bother you. Zhang Jixin smiled dryly, pushed the floating flying carpet in front of him, and cautiously moved forward: "We still have to prepare for the pre-game inspection...... You go ahead and don't bother you anymore. ”

The others lined up in a row, silently following the main hunter and quietly slipped forward.

"Keep up...... You can't get too far away from your body yet. Mr. Wu pushed Zheng Qing, who was pondering, and reminded: "Even if the main consciousness is too far away from the body, it is easy to be blown away by the strong wind. You're not in a soul state yet. ”

Zheng Qing suddenly woke up, dazed, and followed behind the hunters who were guilty of the crime, and floated for a while before he suddenly reacted and turned his head to look at Mr. Wu.

"Can't they see you? He finally realized a very critical question: "Can't Professor Yi see it either?"

"A little trick," Mr. Wu took his gaze back from Professor Yi and looked at Zheng Qing with a smile, "It can always help you win when you are hiding from the cat...... Well, you can interpret me as being the same as you are. ”

"Is it also an out-of-body experience? Zheng Qing muttered.

"To be precise, it's 'consciousness' out of the body. Mr. Wu corrected, "This is a more subtle state than an out-of-body state...... I've used this rhetoric to make it easier for you to understand the implications. ”

If consciousness had a nose, Zheng Qing would definitely not be able to help touching his nose now.

"Then how did you end up at the school? I remember that the Campus Guardian Array can isolate everything that doesn't belong to the school, including souls, curses, and so on. Consciousness also falls into this category. ”

"If there's an invitation, you can come in...... Everyone knows this rule of school. The gentleman floated lightly in front of Zheng Qing, with his hands behind his back, and said slowly: "As a gentleman, there will always be a few old friends...... Besides, it's Moon Hunting, and it's not so difficult to get an invitation from the school. ”

This explanation makes sense.

Even if you like to be cranky, you don't think of any cross-examination.

Until you arrive at Hunting Ground No. 1 and are about to enter the small hall next to the hunting ground for a pre-race check.

Mr. Wu's figure stopped drifting.

"Since I know what happened, then I won't continue to nag......" Mr. Wu stopped and said humorously: "When I came out, the door was not locked, and the bookstore was not taken care of, so how can people rest assured that there is only that dead cat left...... It won't look good if the cat draws a few mustaches on the face. ”

Zheng Qing thought of the scene where the yellow civet in the store secretly took small dried fish from the cupboard to eat while Mr. was away, and couldn't help but laugh, and then stopped laughing.

"Are you going to leave now?" Although he knew that his husband would leave, Zheng Qing felt a sense of reluctance in his heart.

In the two months since he entered the school, although he has shown that he does not care, he has been a little uneasy in his heart. I can't tell if it's fear, or longing, or whatever.

"I'm leaving. Mr. Wu nodded, glanced up at the ceiling of the small hall, and added, "Although things happened in a bit of a hurry, it is not a bad thing after all, and it shouldn't have much impact......

The voices behind grew lower and lower, getting lower and lower to the point where they could not be heard.

"What?" Zheng Qing listened to the words that became more and more blurred, and couldn't help but ask, "What impact?"

Mr. Wu paused, paused for a few seconds, and then stretched out his finger and pointed to the ceiling of the small auditorium.

"It's time for you to go in. He finally said: "There are some uninvited guests here, you better hurry back to your body and find a way to inform the professors of the school...... If you can't do anything, then think about how to save your life. Remember, no matter what the situation comes your to, staying alive is the most important thing. ”

With that, he reached out and nudged.

Before Zheng Qing could ask what kind of uninvited guest was, he felt his feet slip and plunge into the bottomless abyss on one side.

When he reopened his eyes, the pre-match check-up had already begun for a few minutes.

The few wisps of fragrance that Elena had brought with her as she approached were like stimulants, and he quickly recalled what her husband had told him before.

He reclined on the flying carpet, squinting slightly.

In addition to the concerned eyes of his friends, all that came into view was the dark and hollow ceiling overhead, the small group of light that flew around like a swarm of lamp insects, and the puppet hidden in the light cluster.

...

Puppet?

Zheng Qing blinked vigorously.

As if sensing his gaze, in the light cluster, the puppet that had been motionless suddenly grinned and pulled out a large, malicious smile.

"In danger!" the young student struggled to his feet.

"Smack!"

The light in the small hall was extinguished in an instant.
