There are more and more figures on the lakeside.

The patrolmen wearing various college robes, the gray-robed school workers who came and went in a hurry, the teaching assistants holding various tools, and the black-robed professors with solemn faces with their hands behind their backs, suppressed and fierce quarrels broke out in almost every corner, and everyone's faces were very ugly.

The heart of the First University, the core area of the Nine Schools, was unexpectedly touched by a wild demon.

Almost everyone in the Foreign Affairs Office of the School Working Committee can imagine the headlines in the newspapers tomorrow morning.

First, the special plane for admission was invaded by demons, and then a group of wild sand insects stirred up the wind and rain on the campus.

Like a sieve, any cat or dog can come in and take a spin!

Professor An imagined the roars of the school bigwigs, his chubby, round face wrinkled. He trotted all the way, going back and forth between the teaching assistants investigating the evidence and the school staff who were researching, hoping to get some better news.

"Was it a leak from a test from a certain laboratory?"

"Do you know where this demon came from?"

"Are there any other demons nearby?"

He repeated the question over and over again, but all he got was a silent shake of his head.

This made him even more frustrated.

Little by little, time slipped into the night.

The atmosphere on the lakeside has not cooled down, but has become more lively.

Dozens of boats weave back and forth on the sparkling lake, stirring up more ripples.

The fish people at the bottom of the lake were silent, seemingly completely oblivious to these disturbing dreams.

Bundles of colorful spells rose from the boat and exploded in mid-air, invisible waves repeatedly swept over the lake.

Even standing in the corridor, Zheng Qing still had an abnormal feeling of sweat and hair blowing up from time to time, and his skin was numb.

On the lawn, several thin dogs in gray vests lowered their noses and circled the lawn. Their ears twirl wildly like kites, but their tails are caught between their hind legs and dragged to the ground.

The branches of the bushes were covered with lampworms. The little insects inserted their sharp mouthparts into the bark and sucked the sap, and the translucent belly slowly burst into a cyan shimmer that grew brighter and brighter as time went on, until it became fist-sized cyan clusters. These clusters of light are clustered together, illuminating the entire lawn.

A row of thin-mouthed and pot-bellied bamboo cages are neatly stacked in the corridor.

The milky white insects formed streamers of light and flowed out of the cage, centering on the location of the kappa demon and spreading out in all directions according to the standard Fermat spiral.

The closer you get to the central monster, the redder and blacker they become, and the closer you get to the outside, the whiter they become, and the insects in the distance seem to melt into the moonlight in mid-air.

"Those color-changing bugs up there are so funny. Zheng Qing craned his neck, stared at the fading colors in mid-air, and whispered, "It looks like a faint watercolor." ”

"That's the work of Assistant Professor Hilda...... It's some mutated lightworm. The gray-haired assistant stood quietly beside Zheng Qing, as if he had no intention of going to the lawn to be busy.

Seeing Zheng Qing's puzzled gaze, he nodded slightly, stretched out his hand, and introduced himself: "Zhang Yu...... See you again...... We met on the admission plane. ”

"I remember, I remember. Zheng Qing nodded again and again, and said gratefully: "I haven't had the opportunity to thank you...... My name is Zheng Qing. ”

"Everyone knows you," Zhang Yu said with a smile, "This year's freshman who won the Order of Merlin...... It's very famous in the teaching assistant group. ”

Zheng Qing's face turned red again.

At this time, a few words drifted into his ears intermittently:

“...... Definitely not in the lab...... Each of the demons there has been placed with a spell that limits its range of motion...... The only consequence of crossing the line is a mess of meat sauce ......"

“...... I'm not saying lab escape...... I mean, is it possible to ...... in the lake."

“...... Fish-Man ...... None of this can be said ......."

Turning around, it was two gray-robed schoolmen who were on a search mission arguing in a whisper.

He struggled to prick up his ears, but in the end he didn't catch any more information.

Then he remembered the gray-haired teaching assistant next to him, and remembered a sentence he had said not long ago.

"I remember...... You said before, this wild demon is not the fault of the fish people?" Zheng Qing hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart, and asked out loud: "Isn't this wild demon a kappa?"

"I'm only a few years older than you, so don't use honorifics...... Haven't congratulated you on the suppression of this monster yet. Zhang Yu smiled gently and patiently explained, "The first time you raised the alarm, the commissioner of the First University entered the cave of the elders of the fish-man tribe...... By the time we arrived, the commissioner had confirmed that the fishmen had nothing to do with it. ”

"But isn't the kappa under the jurisdiction of the fish-people?"

Zhang Yu turned his head, glanced at the wild lantern insects that were re-lit in the fruit forest, paused, and said, "The magical creatures in the lake are indeed within the jurisdiction of the fish-people...... But not every kappa is a slave to the fish-people. ”

Lin Guo seemed to be a little distracted just now, and suddenly said loudly: "There is nothing to be afraid of fishmen...... The last time Zheng Qing was on patrol, he singled out a fishman who was so tall and strong......"

He tried his best to compare the terrifying size of the fish-man, and his voice was very loud.

Zheng Qing coughed loudly twice.

"You can see that it deserves its name. Zhang Yu sensed the embarrassment of the young wizard, and immediately turned his gaze to the lawn, and landed on the wild demon whose life and death were unknown, and his voice was full of praise: "This should be the second wild demon you suppressed this year...... I highly recommend that you take part in this month's freshman competition at the school hunt, and you will definitely be able to achieve good results according to your level. ”

Zheng Qing didn't speak, he felt his cheeks a little hot.

Fortunately, a familiar figure walked over and broke the somewhat awkward atmosphere.

Zheng Qing ...... Why is something wrong again?!" Thomas's broad palm pressed on Zheng Qing's shoulder, and after seeing the boy's slightly surprised and uneasy expression, he immediately laughed: "Just kidding...... Are there any injuries, are you feeling unwell? The professors are still doing further investigations over there, so let me see if there is anything you two need to ....... ”

The two freshmen shook their heads in unison.

"Even if there is no abnormality, I suggest that you go to the school hospital for one night," Zhang Yu's voice was always so calm: "After all, you two don't have enough experience in facing wild demons alone...... I don't know if I may have been injured. ”

Zheng Qing shrugged, noncommittal, and glanced back at Lin Guo.

The little wizard seemed to have discovered something, and in front of Zheng Qing, he stared at him carefully, looking up and down.

Zheng Qing was a little hairy by him.

"Is there a problem?" he asked quietly.

Lin Guo frowned, stared at Zheng Qing's face, looked at it for a long time, and finally said in surprise:

"Why are your eyes red?!"
