Chapter 292: Rest and Exchange
The sun that sets on the ridge is like a small fluff, round and covered with creamy yellow hairs. Perhaps because of the fog that permeated the mountaintop, which never seemed to dissipate, the outline of the sun looked a little blurry, distorted, and unpredictable.
But it's more likely that it's not a real sun.
Zheng Qing thought so in his heart, took out his pocket watch from the gray cloth bag, and habitually glanced at the time.
4:52 p.m.
According to the time of day outside, that is, in late October and early November, the sun should have set behind the mountains around five o'clock in the afternoon, and the sky should now be covered in a blue-gray color.
But in this hunting ground, the bright, fluffy ball of light always hung motionless in the middle of the sky, tepid, not rising or falling, lazily spitting out wisps of light and heat, maintaining a half-dead appearance.
"Vomit ......"
The three hunters, dressed in silver-gray dragon skin jackets, fell to their knees, retching, trying to spit out the dirt from their mouths, trying to eliminate the peripheral vertigo caused by the repeated use of the Shifter Charm after drowning.
"Do you need a meditation talisman?" Zheng Qing barely cheered up and asked in a low voice: "Your current symptoms are only caused by the dysfunction of the body's spatial orientation and balance, and it is very beneficial to properly soothe your spirit." β
"No, don't waste your spirit...... You've been using so many shifters in a row, and you need to take a break. A skinny male wizard was the first to slow down, waved his hand, and refused Zheng Qing's help: "Let's just take a rest." β
Zheng Qing nodded, and looked up at the hunters who were guilty of the crime.
Xin had escaped his state as a blue giant, and was now sitting on the edge of a rock with a tired face, eating weakly, and the Minotaur had been sent back to the medal space by him during the second move. Among a few people, perhaps only Zhang Jixin still maintains a relatively strong energy, able to walk around, and guard everyone.
It should be safer for a short period of time.
Thinking like this, Zheng Qing finally couldn't help it, sat down on the grass, and immediately fell into a fake sleep.
He really needs a good rest.
The other hunters around them all lowered their steps and voices, so as not to disturb the tired wizard.
Even Iseni, the fishman who had a holiday with Zheng Qing before, consciously sat a little away from Zheng Qing.
The thin wizard who was the first to recover from the Ouroboros shook his head, got up from the grass, and went to help a dark-brown-haired, fair-faced wizard next to him.
"Is this what you call the 'Great West,' my Amber Master?!" quipped the skinny wizard feebly.
Fat Xin raised his eyelids with great effort, but there was no squeak.
He recognized the skinny wizard, a first-year student at Starry Sky Academy, named Omega, and it was said that his family had opened a restaurant in Beta, which was the famous Jota Restaurant.
As for the soothsayer named Amber, the fat man had vaguely heard the Doctor mention itβaccording to the Doctor, this Amber could be regarded as one of the best soothsayers in the first year of college.
Thinking of Xiao Xiao, the fat man's eyes couldn't help but dim, and the beef jerky in his mouth suddenly lost a lot of taste.
"There is no doubt about it. Amber spat out the last mouthful of dirty water in her stomach, struggled to her feet, and muttered, "Like I said before...... We need to put our lives on the ground of death. β
Hearing this, the fat man's eyebrows couldn't help but wrinkle.
His gaze slid over several Ouroboros hunters, and finally he couldn't help it, and asked, "What did you encounter before?"
"That's what I want to ask you," Omega turned to look at the fat man and asked in a low voice, "I remember that Blue is from your hunting team, and he is one of the most powerful freshmen in the Star Academy this year...... What about others?"
The fat on the fat man's face trembled, and his eyelids drooped again.
"Eaten by the white wolf king. Zhang Jixin ended the search, walked over from a distance, and replied in a rough voice: "There is nothing that cannot be said, and now is not the time to cry...... We should share information immediately to increase our chances of surviving this hunting ground as much as possible!"
"I didn't cry!" the fat man suddenly became a little annoyed.
"You wipe the corners of your eyes before you say that. The red-faced wizard glanced at the fat man, sat down in front of Omega and Amber, and waved his hand, "Sit, sit down first... While everyone is still alive, we can exchange some information. β
"I'll start with that. β
"We went into the hunting ground, first we met a vine demon, and there was a fight on both sides, and then the vine demon was burned by us...... Because the territory of the vine demon is relatively large, we simply burned down the grove. β
Hearing this, Omega couldn't help but look at Amber for a moment, and there was a little surprise in his eyes.
"Then there was a bull demon, between eight and nine in strength, which was also killed by us. β
"And then there's a monkey demon...... It's the big monkey you saw before, very cunning, and if you can't beat it, you run, and then when we started fighting with the wolf demon, it brought another monkey and attacked our camp from behind......"
Speaking of this, Zhang Jixin blew his nose, spat viciously, and simply added: "Xiao Xiao was in the camp at the time and didn't run out. β
Amber gasped.
"Xiao Xiao, Dr. Xiao?" The male witch who had been keeping calm finally couldn't hold back the shock in his heart, and shouted in a low voice: "Is it the special student of Jiuyou Academy this year? He is also dead? This is impossible!"
"Nothing is impossible. Zheng Qing gave up pretending to sleep, opened his eyes, rubbed his aching temples, and said softly: "Since that puppeteer appeared, there is nothing impossible. β
As he spoke, he pulled out a black-rimmed glasses from the gray cloth bag.
This was picked up by Zheng Qing in a pile of debris rolling down from the top of the hill after the Sin Hunting Team attacked the foot of that small hill.
The lenses were shattered, and the clear glass was covered with cobweb-like cracks. His fingertips ran over the cold wooden frames of his glasses, feeling the delicate enamel between the frames, just like the delicate mind of the little wizard.
"What about you, what did you encounter when you came in?" Zhang Jixin turned his head to look at the two hunters of Ouroboros.
Omega glanced at Amber, only to see that his soothsayer was closing his eyes and muttering words.
As a last resort, he could only explain stubbornly:
"We just ran into some big snakes...... In the beginning, there were not many snakes, and we killed a few large ones and collected a lot of loot. β
"But the more you kill, the more snakes you have...... From the grass holes, from the ground, from the puddles, from the cracks in the stones, it seemed that a few snake demons could emerge from every place. There should always be thousands. β
Speaking of this, he seemed to think of some bad memories, and couldn't help but shudder: "When we passed by a grass hole, a big snake with a thickness of four or five meters jumped out of it...... It didn't even show its full body, it just flicked its head and swallowed Julian. β
"According to Amber's opinion, we went all the way east, and although there were fewer snake demons, there were more other demons...... Later, Iseny's little frog sent us a message...... We saw the Blue Giant in the distance. β
As he spoke, he glanced at Fat Xin and continued, "The captain said that he had an agreement with you before that they should help each other, so we chanted a chaos spell. β
"Thank you. Zheng Qing sincerely thanked.
Without that chaos spell, perhaps the Sinhunters would have had to pay more to break out of the encirclement of the demons.
"Not long after we finished chanting the incantation, we saw your figure pass diagonally in front of our hunting party...... The captain thought you didn't see us, so he chased after us, but fell into the pool. At this, Omega sniffled, "Of course, now we know that it was the Water Mirror Demon. β
"But we didn't know it at the time. β
"Iseni thought he was a fishman and knew how to water, so he jumped in to save people...... We thought he was close to making it β because we watched them struggle on the edge of the pool. β
So we immediately reached out and pulled ...... But I didn't expect those to be illusions. β
"Then you all planted yourself in the pool of the water demon. Fat Xin summed up and shook his head: "If you prepare a few more meditation talismans, you won't be confused by this illusion." β
Omega glanced at Zheng Qing, then at the fat man, and finally suppressed the urge to refute.
