Chapter 29 If nothing else happens
The group of people stopped some distance from the gate of the Soul Hunting Forest. Without even looking at the closed gate and the tight guards, they walked along the wall and soon discovered a secret passage.
"You have to act quickly. The city lord and Wuhundian will personally lead the team tomorrow. Tonight is my last chance!"
Teacher Xiao looked around at the four companions around him and fixed his gaze on the old pervert: "The soul-hunting forest at night is extremely dangerous. We will go directly to the center of the forest. If we encounter soul beasts along the way, the director will have to take action."
Although this guy has a history of running away, his strength as a strong man is there. As long as he is not a thousand-year-old Gouba, he can easily handle it.
"As for entering the center of the forest..." Teacher Xiao inadvertently glanced at Xiao Dong, who was hugging his waist, showing a cute and pretty face but still wary of the old pervert.
But in fact Xiaodong has been observing these people with his mental power:
‘Hmm~ These two muscular brothers are both of the strong attack type, and the thin guy is of the agility attack type. Wait, there is also an unattractive assistant? In addition, Teacher Xiao is from the control department, is this group of mercenaries still a perfect lineup? ’
‘Oh, and there is this old pervert who is running away at level 41... Tsk, it looks like the thousand-year-old Gouba is going to be in trouble! ’
'But...' The burgundy colored contact lenses flashed slightly: 'The old pervert has a history of running away! Even if he controls my bargaining chip, the old pervert will never work too hard in the hunting operation! ’
'Also, although this lineup is perfect, they are only great soul masters. Their comprehensive strength cannot reach the level of Xiao Gouba who can win the thousand-year-old Gouba. Otherwise, the city lord and the dean will not both lead the team, and the mercenaries value their own lives and interests more. , and will not fight against the thousand-year-old Gouba, especially when there are one or two casualties...'
‘Besides, this Teacher Xiao is not stupid. Since she thought that I could control the soul beast so that she could hunt easily, didn’t she consider the possibility that I could control the soul beast to rebel and attack this group of people? ’
In other words, if nothing unexpected happens, there is a high probability that this group of people will fail in hunting and lose a few people at the same time, but Teacher Xiao still comes, and she is running on the idea that she will definitely succeed... She must have a very powerful one trump card.
Powerful enough to hunt down the thousand-year-old Gouba alone...or rather after being injured!
The burgundy colored contact lenses were filled with thoughts: ‘Could it be that...’
Xiaodong thought of something and was slightly surprised. He glanced at everyone pitifully with his spiritual power and sighed secretly: 'Douluo Continent is indeed not as beautiful as it was when watching anime before time travel. ’
The soul masters who still didn't know their fate looked at each other, full of fighting spirit: "Don't worry, Teacher Xiao."
This improvised team quickly rushed towards the center of the forest.
We did encounter many soul beasts without eyes on the road, but they were all easily killed by the old pervert. Even a few difficult ones were killed quickly with the cooperation of the team, and every soul beast that died was killed. Xiaodong would send requiem charms and blessings of "Thank you, brother" to each of them one by one.
This scene made the other members who met him for the first time chuckle. The old pervert didn't take it seriously. There was even a little satisfaction in his eyes, as if he was imagining what Xiaodong would do if he was locked up in a secret room. What does it look like?
Teacher Xiao was the only one who frequently frowned. In the past, when leading a group in the academy, he only found it interesting, but now this group tour is so important that there is no room for any waste of time. There were several times when he almost couldn't help but tear it apart. His disguised face revealed his green-faced fangs to Xiaodong.
But he was afraid that the unknowing Xiaodong would turn against the old pervert, so he held back in order to control the overall situation.
Fortunately, the time for 'Requipment' was very short, and this trip of 'Killing' also allowed Xiaodong to accumulate a lot of soul power, which directly increased from more than 1,000 to 3,000, and his own soul power reached level 21. !
This was the first time that Xiaodong relied on 'Requiem' to improve his soul power level. He never expected that it would be under such circumstances, and this was the most comfortable time for Xiaodong in the past six months in Noting. About 2 hours later, the team finally arrived in the middle of the forest.
Several people immediately looked at Teacher Xiao inquiringly, asking what to do next.
Teacher Xiao, however, lowered his head and looked at the cute little Lolita who was unwilling to let go from her waist: "Xiaodong, I need you to help the teacher next."
"Huh?"
Xiaodong raised his head and looked at her without knowing why, but he happened to meet Teacher Xiao's malicious eyes that finally showed!
"Xiao..." Before Xiao Dong could say the fearful words, Teacher Xiao took the lead and said: "The first soul skill, spider web restraint!"
A spider web formed from soul power pounced on Xiaodong and tied her into a rice dumpling without any effort.
"Xiao...Teacher Xiao! What are you doing..." A crying voice came out of the mouth of actress Xiao Dong. Teacher Xiao, who had endured the whole journey, said with a cruel smile: "Didn't you just say it? Xiao Dong, the teacher needs your help. .”
"Why do you want to help..." Before he could finish his words, Teacher Xiao took off the bag tied around his waist, opened the seal, pointed it at Xiaodong and shook it, and a lump of fluorescent powder fell on her.
"This luster and smell..." The old pervert narrowed his eyes: "Could it be the soul-inducing powder that can attract soul beasts? You actually prepared such a valuable thing?"
"I spent all my savings for this hunting." Teacher Xiao was also very sad, but after seeing the pitiful Xiao Dong, he smiled faintly: "I'm sorry for you, Xiao Dong, but you are immune to the harm of spirit beasts." With your abilities, being a bait is not a big problem for you, right?”
Not only to use Xiaodong as bait, but also to verify Xiaodong's affairs. After all, it is better to confirm the rumors of being approached by a soul beast with his own eyes.
After saying that, he winked at everyone, and whoosh~ everyone flew to the surrounding tree crowns to hide themselves, secretly observing the surroundings and Xiao Dong, who was half sitting on the spot, at a loss.
About 10 minutes later, there was a rustling sound coming from the surroundings. Everyone was staring nervously at a bush. A few seconds later, a ghost wolf... that was more than 800 years old appeared in the field of vision, sniffing something. , but soon focused on the extremely conspicuous Xiao Dong.
Then began to approach slowly...
"Woooooo~ Mr. Wolf, don't eat me." A crying voice sounded in this silent bait trap, and under everyone's gaze, the ghost wolf was 20 meters away from Xiaodong and heard After saying this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he let out an 'ah-oh' sound, turned around and left directly.
"This..."
Everyone who saw this scene for the first time was shocked on the spot, especially the old pervert who regretted it in his heart: 'What Xiao Wu said is actually true! If I had not chosen to run away that afternoon...'
