Monster Hunting High School

Linzhong Lake under the moon is quiet and peaceful.

On the sparkling lake, more than a dozen sailboats silently shuttled back and forth, and colorful spells rose from the boats and spread.

This is the patrol team of the First University School Working Committee conducting a dragnet investigation.

The large number of fireflies released by the school workers almost enveloped the entire Linzhong Lake. White, cyan, blue, green and other colors of light come together and are as dazzling as the aurora.

If it weren't for the curfew, this place would definitely attract a large number of students visiting for sightseeing.

For some magical creatures that make a living by the lake, these dense fireflies are a rare feast.

On the shore, several bare-headed kappas kept jumping up on their stubby legs, catching a few light bugs and stuffing them into their mouths, then opened their mouths full of fangs and mocked the embarrassed wizards unscrupulously.

Compared to their counterparts in the wild, the tree sperm living in First University are obviously bolder. They hung in groups on the slender branches of the weeping willow, curiously watching this rare spectacle of light and shadow. Occasionally they swayed the slender branches of the weeping willow like a swing, and caught a few fireflies to beat their teeth as a sacrifice.

There are more hidden creatures in the shadows under the trees by the lake, constantly attacking the snacks flying in the sky.

On weekdays, the teaching assistants who are more lively may take out their Dharma books and tool boxes to collect some rare samples.

But today, the busy wizards obviously didn't pay attention to the little guys blowing in the autumn wind.

The space that Victor tore apart slowly calmed down under the power of Gaia, and only the occasional distorted light told everyone the trauma that had just been experienced in this space and time.

Several mutated light bugs happened to fly through the folds of the space and quietly turned into a few streaks of light.

Hilda caught a glimpse of this scene, the corners of his eyes twitched, and he muttered in a low voice: "Damn violent man."

"What did you say?" Professor Monteria glanced at him sternly.

"I mean, there is indeed a demonic atmosphere here." Hilda hurriedly tried to remedy the situation.

He pointed at his mutated fireflies flying all over the sky and explained diligently: "Did you see it? The color of the fireflies is centered on this rockery and spreads to all sides... Well, my mutated fireflies encountered evil spirits. It emits red light, which is somewhat different from the color of normal fireflies.”

Several assistant coaches around him nodded.

The light emitted by normal fireflies is white light. Occasionally, some fireflies that absorb other energy may emit blue or green light, but the main body is cold-colored.

For light bugs, being able to emit red light is indeed very special.

"The closer to the rockery, the redder the color becomes; the further away, the lighter the color. On the other side of the lake, the color of the light bugs has almost no change from the original... It can be concluded that this little guy encountered a demon, and that The active place of the demon is near this rockery," Hilda concluded confidently.

Professor Monteria glanced at him suspiciously and did not continue speaking.

"If the demon is active here, then where has it gone now?" An assistant coach pinched his chin and looked around curiously: "It can't just disappear for no reason."

Hilda was speechless.

"Thomas." Professor Yi spoke again.

"Yes." The blue-eyed interviewer walked up to the kitten quietly, took out his toolbox from his arms, and took out various types of knives, tweezers, bone saws, straws, and bottles of different sizes. Jar Jar.

Then he took out a pair of khaki leather gloves from his pocket and prepared to put them on.

"Don't use it." Professor Monteria stopped the interviewer abruptly.

He took out a pair of thin, almost transparent gloves from his arms and threw them to Thomas.

"Don't dissect this cat completely yet...just take some samples first." Professor Monteria glanced at Professor Yi and added: "This is a pair of ice silkworm leather gloves, which are more suitable for you to do some delicate operations. "

Thomas paused while holding the scalpel, then nodded quietly, stuffed the khaki gloves back into his arms, and put on the ice silkworm leather gloves.

Whether it was an illusion or not, the onlookers let out a sigh of relief in unison.

"Zhang Yu, please go and ask Uncle Verne. We need to discuss matters by the lake with him." Professor Yi seemed not to notice the change in the surrounding atmosphere, and continued to give instructions unhurriedly.

"Yes." A gentle voice agreed, nodding slightly. However, most of his face was hidden under the tall collar, and the wizards around him could only see his gray hair shaking slightly.

"No need to invite me, I'm here." An old voice slowly sounded from behind everyone: "If you wait for you to invite me, this lake will be demolished."

Several young wizards were obviously startled by the sudden sound, and the books in their hands had begun to flip and make a sound.

"Ahem!" Professor Monteria coughed twice in embarrassment.

"One generation is worse than the next, huh." The old man muttered, holding a wooden stick in one hand and an angry lantern in the other, rolling his strange eyes. At his feet, the old dog named Wuyue was panting, shaking its wrinkles that could pinch someone to death, and moving crookedly.

The young wizards lowered their heads in shame.

"They are still young, don't jump to conclusions so easily." Professor Yi finally turned around and looked at the night watchman in the cabin by Linzhong Lake: "Always give them some time."

"For wizards, the most precious thing is time." Old Man Verne punched his wooden staff, stared at the two leading professors, and pointed out something: "Always give them time, and they will figure it out." late!"

Professor Yi turned around and looked at the kitten lying on the white stone again without saying a word.

Professor Monteria had a straight face and did not answer.

The lakeside fell into silence again.

"Its eyes have been alienated, and there is no possibility of residual images." Thomas used tweezers to open the kitten's eye sockets, carefully fiddled with the emerald-like eyeballs with a slender probe, and reported to Professor Yi in a low voice. : "Do we still need to collect samples here?"

"Yes." Professor Yi expressed his opinion concisely and concisely.

"Not only necessary, but also thorough." Monteria's stern voice sounded in his ears: "Take off both eyeballs directly, give one to the school working committee for files, and give one to Professor Yi for deductive analysis. ”

Thomas nodded silently.

"Don't bother, let everyone go back and rest." Old Man Verne walked back and forth along the lake shore a few times, and waved his hand to make the patrols that were shuttled across the lake retreat.

"You should go back after collecting the samples." The old man raised his eyelids, glanced at the busy people in black robes, and muttered: "This cat will stay here."

"Don't you need to protect the physical evidence?" Hilda looked at the old man curiously.

"If something goes awry, you are a monster, and if you don't follow the rules, you are a devil. Cases committed by monsters cannot be solved by wizards' conventional methods." The old man leaned on his cane and explained patiently: "If the monster is still in school, then It will definitely return to the lake during the day tomorrow to see its trophies... This is the nature of a demon."

"But this is Linzhong Lake!" Hilda's voice was a little fussy: "More than half of the students from Jiuyou Academy will pass by here tomorrow!"

"That is to say, the remaining half of the people can rule out abnormalities first." Professor Monteria's gloomy voice sounded in his ears: "If I were you, I would shut up now and go back to the monitoring room! "

Hilda stuck out her tongue, shrank her neck, and ran away with several of her companions who were leaving.
