The canopy of countless towering trees obscured the sky, and the dense foliage stinged out a little bit of sunlight through the cracks, and the shadows cast onto the ground through the gaps in the trees. Although there were many teams entering the Gran Forest, when they really faced this behemoth, it was like sand scattered into the sea, and they could not even make a splash, and they had completely sunk into the silent sea of trees.

The fiery sun slowly set from the highest sky, and finally sank below the horizon.

The sunset is a flaming cloud, which is the enthusiasm that flows from the sun's darkest rays.

"That's all for today. Fina said, turning her gaze to the dark-haired youth, "What do you think, Midi?"

"Half an hour further on, we will be almost at the watershed from the direction of this creek, where there will be shelter from the wind and close to the water source, which is the best place to camp. ”

"Okay, I'll listen to you. The red-haired girl nodded cheerfully.

The trial had lasted for three days, and every decision Midi had made along the way had been proven right in hindsight, whether it was from the perspective of path selection, camp location, security, water for food, and ease of escape, nothing could be found, and what was even more amazing was the speed of action.

Of course, the other three are not rookies, and they have been fully prepared before, but compared to the many years of adventurer experience of Midi after being reborn, there is only admiration left.

Spending a week in the wild without backup is quite stressful both physically and mentally, after all, no matter how strong the students of the Academy of Magic are, they are not seasoned adventurers after all, they can't fall asleep, and they can't wake up naturally when the monsters approach. Long journeys, poor food, poor rest, unknown dangers, these invisible pressures are more detrimental than the battle itself.

However, according to Midi's suggestion, the team was able to maintain enough spare strength even after clearing the monster pack. In Fina's words, "Even a level 30 enemy will be killed." ”

And every night of camping, he will also do it himself, choose the right place, ensure the quality of sleep, and take on the task of keeping vigil alone.

After the first night, the Queen of the Storm officially handed over the duties of guide to Midi.

It's recognition, it's trust, and that's what Midi needs most.

So, in the next trial, everything became very easy, and the team members didn't even need to look at the map, just follow the midi forward, and they were able to reach their destination quickly.

In just three days, they had passed through eight ruins—goblin communities of various levels, minotaur communities, cat demon communities, etc., as well as monster leaders who had undergone strong mutations and were able to cast different spells, all of which fell under everyone's swords and magic without any suspense.

In terms of combat, the strongest is undoubtedly the Queen of the Storm.

Not to mention that Midi hid the ghost hand, even if he used it, he might not be able to get much. Fina's title of "Queen of Magic Bullets" is not for fun, the most basic "magic missile" of the mage profession is in her hands, combined with the power of talent, it is like a storm that runs through everything.

Most of the time, Midi and Lilian, who are close combat, hardly need to make a move, and as long as the gunman Sigmund is contained, Fina's firepower alone can easily sweep away the entire monster group, and then she doesn't take a breath.

The Academy's most difficult trials were like an outing, and judging from their current results, they must have left the other teams, including Fenrir, far behind.

However, Midi's heart is not easy.

Although the team is now perfectly capable of walking sideways in the Gran Forest, the problem lies with the Assassins who follow them.

Although it is impossible for the Zhilu Dao Magic Academy to leave the Hamilton family's daughter alone, the transferor in charge of monitoring is only about level 25 at most. And in memory, when the Seth family started, they sent three level 28 assassins!

As soon as the Assassins came up, they silently killed the Protector of the Academy, who was secretly following, and then used the terrain to cut the team apart. One of them pinned down Sigmund and Lilian, and the other two hit Fina, the assassination target.

However, at that time, Fina showed amazing potential, although she was only level 21, she had already reached level 27 to 28 in terms of various abilities alone, coupled with extraordinary magic skills, she killed an assassin in an instant, so a one-on-one situation was formed.

If it weren't for the stupidity of herself at the time, who only refused to listen to orders at level 16 and only thought about running, in that case, it would have been impossible for Fina to be injured by another assassin.

This time, Midi also reached level 19, and obtained the ghost hand, and it was a trump card when it burst out.

The problem is that reality has also changed.

If the beginning of the trial was just a guess, then after two nights of vigil, through the examination of the traps laid out in advance, the search for clues during the march, and the intuition of the most seasoned adventurer in the wilderness, Midi could already determine that the level of the assassin was a notch higher than the previous life.

This made the pressure on Midi's heart a little more.

In the past three days, I have worked hard to reduce consumption, so that the team can always maintain an energetic state, and how much effect can the advantages accumulated bit by bit play a role?

Midi kept thinking and calculating in her mind.

"I'll keep vigil today, you've been keeping vigil for two nights in a row. After a brief dinner, Sigmund made a suggestion.

"No, I didn't have to spend much effort during the daytime anyway, so I might as well use it for the night vigil. Midi politely refused.

"There's no need to persuade him, Sigmund. This guy is a stubborn head, and he seems to want to show himself in front of Miss Fina, and you are worried about him in vain. Lilian said in a strange manner, but what was revealed in her eyes was not malice, but a kind of agitated light.

As the most famous martial artist of the future Hayabusa Regiment, Lilian's paranoia, Midi had learned about it in her previous life, so she didn't mind. Moreover, he also knew very well that the girl was not malicious, but just more venomous, and if she encountered a real enemy, Lilian would not be aggressive, but remained silent, and then suddenly broke out, killing with one blow.

"Miss Fina, advise Midi too. Ignoring Lilian's words, Sigmund turned to the leader of the team for help, "After all, we are a team. ”

But the red-haired girl smiled faintly and shook her head: "Sigmund, you have to believe that everyone in this team is capable of managing their own bodies. ”

So, on the third night of the trial, it was still Midi's vigil.

While his companions were resting in the camp, Midi hid alone in the shadows of the rocks, carefully hiding her body and closing her eyes to sleep.

This is not laziness, but a common practice among risk-takers. Originally, at night, humans who lack night vision can not see anything, but closing their eyes can make the perception of the five senses more acute. Coupled with the various traps laid on the periphery of the camp, as long as there is any wind and grass, Midi will immediately wake up and enter the battle state in an instant.

And only a few hours later, there was indeed something closer, with a familiar and intimate atmosphere.

"Fina?" Midi opened her eyes to see the red-haired girl quietly reaching for her place.

"I thought you were asleep. Fina stuck out her tongue, revealing for a moment the cuteness of a girl, and only when she was alone with Midi, she occasionally became defenseless, "I didn't expect to be awake." ”

"Originally, the human eye has a very limited vision at night, so it is better to close the eyes, which can not only conserve physical strength, but also make the sense of hearing, smell, and intuition more acute. Midi explained.

However, with his knowledge of the Storm Queen, Zhilu said that the other party definitely didn't come here to ask the teacher to ask for guilt, and if he really thought he was lazy, Fina would come over to point out the problem on the first night.

"What are you worried about? If it's just a trial, you don't have to do it to this extent. As expected, Fina asked the core question straight to the point. Although Midi concealed it well, in the eyes of the red-haired girl who seemed to be sassy but was actually extremely delicate, she really couldn't hide it.

"Someone is following us. Midi thought for a moment, and gave her thoughts.

He had planned to wait until he had a countermeasure before he told the matter, but now that the Storm Queen had asked, Midi would tell him the truth.

"You mean the Monitors sent by the Academy?" Fina shrugged, "One level 25 and one level 30, one light and one dark, those two people?"

"No, there are others. The rank is at least 30 or above, and the number is unknown, but it is certain that they are coming for this team. Midi shook her head, a chill flashing in her eyes, "A typical group of assassins, in the middle of the night just keep an eye on us to weaken our energy, and during the day is when they make a move, they have a good view and will not let anyone escape." The question is when they will get their hands dirty. ”

"I see, no wonder every time I clean up the rubble, I always feel like I'm being stared at with some kind of hostile gaze. Fina shook her long hair and frowned unhappily, "Can you lock down their position?" ”

Midi smiled bitterly and shook her head, the Storm Queen was still as willful as ever, but with his current level, even if he was a ghost swordsman, it was still too difficult to find a professional assassin.

Suddenly, however, an inspiration flashed into Midi's mind.

"It's hard to lock down the Assassins, but there's a way to get us started. Midi said, her eyes blazing.
