A string of sparks flashed through the air, burning with a pervasive aura of fear.

In the forest market, the vendors and most of the customers hid in the nearest houses, lest they be targeted by the magical creatures with red eyes. Only a handful of brave wizards followed behind Andrew and the Trident to stop the raging figures.

The figures of the scourge fighters are getting closer and closer, and their appearance is becoming clearer and clearer.

Zheng Qing saw their coal-like eyes, their satin-reflective, smooth fur, and their tails that branched off like poisonous tongues.

They breathe flames from their mouths, and their paths are in shambles, leaving behind them a terrifying fire.

From time to time, jars of potions were detonated by these flames, emitting dazzling light and loud noises, making the scene seem more and more out of control.

"Bang!"

The young student pulls the trigger and fires a spell at a scourge that approaches the team.

Scourge twisted his waist and flashed the rune bullet, but it didn't flash the power range of the rune bullet. The milky white magic halo centered on the point of impact, flashed, and the originally imminent scourge seemed to see a terrifying natural enemy, with the long hair on his neck standing on end, baring his teeth, and barking a few steps back.

Evil talismans are mainly used to deter and dispel evil, and their lethality is not strong.

In the silver python magazine in Zheng Qing's hand, most of them are this kind of rune bullets. It's not that he doesn't want to see his prey killed by a single blow, but most of the talismans he learned from school are non-lethal. This is also in line with the consistent teaching purpose of First University.

But that doesn't mean he doesn't have other means.

In the gray cloth bag around his waist, there was also a Remington loaded with blood runes, which he had quietly used as his killer weapon since the last time he used the blood runes to blow up the Zatogua descendant.

It's just that right now, in the face of a group of 'big wolf dogs', he feels that he doesn't need to use another big gun.

The aftermath of the rune burst also caused several other scourge to lower their bodies and roar at the new hunters.

Robert Lee didn't pay any attention to the barking canine beasts, his face was unusually ugly as he stared at the breached gap in the wall at the edge of the forest market.

"Why is it causing a fight!" he gritted his teeth and whispered to himself, "Why now?!"

"We saw a vendor selling scourge cubs in the market before, is that because of this?" replied Zheng Qing guessed. At this moment, he was still standing by Robert's side, holding a gun in both hands, and looking steadily ahead.

Although the talisman bullet that had just been fired did not kill the scourge and the effect was not satisfactory, Zheng Qing was not particularly frustrated. It has attracted the attention of several scourges and reduced the pressure from other directions, and this is the result.

Therefore, he was not in a hurry to fill the bullets immediately.

The Colt Silver Python's magazine capacity is six rounds, and he has just fired only one shot, and the margin is still sufficient.

"It's really an ominous sign. Fat Xin stood on the other side of Robert, not holding the law book in his hand, but holding a quill and a notebook. Of course, this does not mean that he is indifferent to danger. In fact, from the moment he crossed the gate of the forest goods market, Xin's figure had already increased sharply, and his skin had turned pale blue.

It can be seen that compared with the school hunting meeting, he has a stronger degree of control over his transformation ability, and he has been able to maintain a low-level transformation state.

"Are we going to make a move now?" Zheng Qing looked at the raging scourge figures in the distance, licked his lips, and was eager to try.

He felt like he was hungry for his big gun.

"No," Xiao Xiao, who was standing at the back of the line, replied: "The situation in the market is currently controllable, and those few scourges, with Andrew and Professor An, plus those Duo people, can completely handle it...... My divination results show that the biggest risk at the moment comes from the wall. ”

Robert didn't look back, but a look of approval appeared on his face, and he nodded in agreement: "It's worthy of the hunting team that has won the first place, everyone is excellent." But there's one thing you're not clear about. To be precise, the biggest risk is the gap in that wall...... This wall is the first line of defense against magic on the outskirts of Beta, and beyond the walls are the River of Silence and the Forest of Silence. A gap in the wall means that the town of Beta has opened its gates to the Silent Forest. ”

"This is the biggest crisis right now. ”

"The Kuroshio is about to spring out of that gap. ”

When Zheng Qing heard this, he gasped.

Recently, he had heard Xiao Xiao and other old people in Beta Town talk about the horror of the 'Black Tide' more than once. The Kuroshio is a natural phenomenon in which hungry magical creatures in the Silent Forest storm the town of Beta in search of food and other ways out of the harsh winter and early spring.

This period of time happens to be the time when Kuroshio is most likely to occur. Even on pedestrian streets, many stores have shortened their opening hours to strengthen the protective magic of the storefronts. The most supple items in the market now are also goods such as talismans, array plates, and talismans.

Under normal circumstances, a large area of guardian magic positions is set up around Beta Town—although they are not comparable to the guardian circles of First University, they can also be called the deep moat of the tower and the soup pool of Jincheng—these magic positions are horns of each other, and they affect the whole body.

Magical creatures that rush out of the Silent Forest and attack any magical position will cause the other guardian magicians around them to attack in unison.

In most cases, the Kuroshio will gradually dissolve under the layers of Beta's defenses, and it is rare for the circle to be truly broken.

According to the town's elders, the last time Beta was swept up by the Black Tide was three years ago, when several fire demons broke through the defenses under the cover of other magical creatures and stormed Beta, setting fire to dozens of shops along the way.

Lin Guo's previous Lin family shop was destroyed in that disaster, and his family also died in that disaster. Because of the close relationship, Zheng Qing was particularly impressed by this matter.

"Fortunately, Lin Guo is not here. The young public student tugged at the corners of his mouth and whispered.

Although he didn't know what it would do if Lin Guo was here. He simply didn't think he should be allowed to face this terrible situation again.

Robert Lee didn't care about Zheng Qing's whispers.

"Get ready for the hunt," the sheriff whispered to the young wizards beside him, "open your books, keep your eyes open, and curse every beast that comes before you...... Tell the townspeople to keep their doors and windows closed. ”

"Wild hunting?" Zheng Qing felt a cold air rushing up his spine from the tail vertebrae, a word that seemed to contain a huge negative magic.

"Take a deep breath," the sheriff pointed as he seemed to understand the witch's feelings, "and they're still deep in the Silent Forest...... It's just that their cold breath and cold breath have eaten away at the town...... Therefore, we feel that the noon sun is like the moon, and the fire scene is cold. ”
