Chapter 11 Hit and run (please recommend)
The location they were on was a dilapidated dirt road overgrown with weeds. There was a stone field next to it, which was also the end of the dirt road.
Light Master Li Yun released a beam of light into the sky.
Shortly afterwards, a group of mages who were obviously tired of their time came over. They were the patrol mages of the fourth team.
Leaded by a loud voice who was obviously the leader:
"Old Chu, why are you so stubborn today?"
Chu Yunlong patted the other party's shoulder angrily.
"You know nothing! I'm not sticking to one standard."
Watching the four teams leave in the same car they came in. Chu Yunlong's smiling face also became serious.
He said to Bai Mo and the others:
"The demons in Jiufeng Mountain are mainly the Jiufeng Raccoon Dog and the Gale Wind Wolf Clans with the attributes of wind and earth. Because there are many raccoon demons here, they are named the Jiufeng Raccoon Clans. Most of them are on the mountain. The same is true for the Three Peaks, and there are some other lone demons. We The main purpose of the patrol is to find out the movements of these monsters. "
"We will patrol around the third peak three times a night. Sometimes we will encounter monsters head-on. Generally, it depends on the situation. "Kill."
Chu Yunlong paused slightly here, leaving a few seconds for the three of them to digest the information he gave, before continuing:
"We will try not to do anything tonight. Fighting monsters."
Zhong Ling and the others nodded in understanding. However, Jiang Cheng looked at the sky and saw that a layer of dark clouds had once again gathered in the originally clear sky.
"The weather is bad."
Hearing this, Chu Yunlong also glanced at the sky and said: "It may rain at night. It is harder to detect the movements of demons in rainy days. You must be mentally prepared."
Bai Mo and the other three nodded.
The group of people began to go up the mountain and headed into the mountain.
While walking, Zhong Ling had unknowingly stood at the front of the team. Several other mages who are good at displacement are also walking in positions that suit them.
Surrounded Chu Yunlong and Bai Mo in the middle.
The roads in the mountains and forests were not easy to walk, and the weeds even covered their knees. Relying on night vision equipment, they could maintain their formation in an orderly manner.
"There are eight demon lairs on the three peaks. They are our main targets."
The ability of the psychic system spread Chu Yunlong's words to the ears of Bai Mo and the others.
Bai Mo calculated in his mind that there were fifty demons in one nest, and eight nests meant four hundred demons. It doesn't sound like much.
But a few minutes later, through the woods and in the open mountains, I saw a field of playful and roaring monsters in front of me.
Hidden in the shadows, he felt a terrible evil spirit, as if he was facing a storm and a falling boulder.
The horror of his life being threatened almost made him throw away the magic he had prepared.
That is the breath of a warrior-level demon! Bai Mo's eyes were fixed on the two giant palm raccoon dogs that were breathing soundly in the center of the mountain.
It has a face like a fox, but its body looks like a dog. Four giant palms bigger than an off-road vehicle overlapped in front of him. Just lying on his hands and knees, he was two stories high.
The invisible wind blew across the lake of souls, making the three people in Bai Mo relax, who were originally tense. Then Chu Yunlong's words echoed in their hearts.
“Jiufeng Mountain is the best habitat for the Jiufeng raccoon dog population. Under normal circumstances, they are willing to stay on the mountain. This scene is a general situation. If you find that they become restless, or their numbers increase and decrease on a large scale, , we need to find out the cause to prepare for unexpected events.”
After recording this group of monsters, the nine people headed for the next destination.
With a rumble of thunder, more and more raindrops hit the ground.
Everyone had to stop and let Zhou Tianyuan and Chu Yunlong put water guards on everyone before continuing forward.
Although the interference of rain made the exploration work a little troublesome, with Chu Yunlong's spiritual connection, it was much easier for them to do things along the way. They would avoid the hunting and fighting between monsters that happened from time to time in the mountains and forests.
The hunter hiding in the dark cannot escape Chu Yunlong's perception, but there are always special circumstances.
For example, the extremely fast Storm Wolf. A keen sense of smell, fast speed and a pair of sharp eyes in the dark.
Let him become the king of the jungle in the dark night.
When Chu Yunlong sensed that it was, it had already arrived in front of everyone, leaving them no room to move around.
Bai Mo also finally understood why there were so many displacement mages and the psychic mage Chu Yunlong, and why there would be head-on encounters with monsters.
The wind wolf in front of me is only two circles larger than a normal wolf. What attracts people's attention is its slender limbs and a pair of strange blue eyes.
The sudden encounter caused the water barrier on Zhong Ling to explode.
"Water Control - Circulation!"
In just an instant, a stream of water satin once again surrounded the front Zhong Ling. The ever-flowing rapids blocked the claw attack of the Storm Wolf.
Then it exploded into countless water splashes with a bang, covering a ball of hot flames in front of the Gale Wolf.
"Fire-explosion!"
With a snap of Zhong Ling's fingers, the crimson fireball suddenly exploded.
All this was coordinated too tacitly. At this time, the Storm Wolf had just recovered from the awkward feeling of scratching the air under its claws, and its agile body allowed it to easily avoid the fire ball.
But what he didn’t expect was that it was an explosion of fire. The exploding fireball directly shattered the smaller half of its body, and the remaining fire waves evaporated large amounts of water vapor, igniting its body.
Although it's not dead yet, half of its body is gone, and it's in this jungle, so its fate is already determined.
"Transfer!" Chu Yunlong shouted quickly, without any intention of asking anyone to hit him again. Zhong Ling had no such idea either. Instead, he took two steps back and stood right next to the shadow mage. Then the wind track came out first, followed by the ground wave, the shadows floated, and everyone disappeared in place as if they had not appeared.
Only a dying Wind Wolf was left, and its body was covered in the smell of blood. It flows farther and farther under the wash of rain.
“There are many demons in Jiufeng Mountain who are very fast, so we cannot be reluctant to fight. The battle must be resolved within a few seconds. If not, we must evacuate quickly!”
After the nine people avoided the place where the battle just happened, they continued to move forward. Chu Yunlong took the time to say this to Bai Mo and the other three.
The three nodded to express their understanding. At the same time, I also understand why a team has so many displacement mages.
The feeling of running away after a fight, don’t tell me, don’t tell me, it’s quite exciting!
It’s just that Zhou Tianyuan and Zhao Qingying thought it was a bit too exciting. They rubbed the demon’s head, tail and butt several times.
This is a bit too much for them.
Bai Mo was doing better. He was already at level three, and he had just been frightened by a warrior-level monster.
Facing these slaves again, he even felt that he could leisurely rub the heads of these demons with his virtual claws.
Anyway, just run away after rua. You are a speed type. Six of the nine of us are.
After completing a circle of exploration around the three peaks, everyone began their second exploration.
The main goal this time is to observe the battle between demons. If it is a natural struggle such as hunting, then of course there is no need to worry about it.
If it is something else, such as some special treasure, you can record and observe it, and then make a task and give it to the Hunter Alliance or internal digestion.
If you encounter two groups of monsters fighting with each other at a high frequency, you need to pay special attention.
The strength of each demon group in Jiufeng Mountain is maintained at a relative balance. Suppose there is a fight between two or more groups of demons.
That means that the strength of a group of demons has greatly increased or is about to increase. This is of particular concern to the mages of the garrison.
Currently, there is only one leader-level wind spirit raccoon dog in Jiufeng Mountain. If another leader appears, a war will inevitably break out here.
Jiufeng Mountain is not very far from the Magic City.
The last lap is to check for leaks and fill in the gaps. The thunderclouds subsided, and after completing the last lap, the horizon was also dyed fish belly white.
Everyone who had not slept all night saw the light rising in the sky, completed the handover with the sixth team, and returned to Zhongzhong Town.
In the dormitory, Zhou Tianyuan, who was lying on the bed, said quietly:
"Bai Mo, why do I think this experience evaluation is not difficult?"
"This is only the first day, old Zhou. Team Chu didn't ask us to do anything last night. Mages like you and me who have defensive or destructive abilities have to follow the displacement mages in some places like Sister Zhong Ling. Detection, just look around and see clearly. Sister Zhong Ling had a hard time last night."
Bai Mo said leisurely: "And when the adaptation period is over, we will definitely have to face the demon. Yesterday. We met six times in the evening. This is a situation that Captain Chu tries to avoid."
"Hey, you can't say anything nice, just scare me."
"I'm just stating. "Facts."
One of the other three students in the fourth group who was silently listening to the two people talking said with a pale face in surprise:
"Did you encounter demons six times last night? We encountered them more than ten times, and we were almost surrounded."
"Is it so thrilling?" Zhou Tianyuan exclaimed.
"Their captain is not psychic. It rained last night, which is normal."
Bai Mo said lightly, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
In the next two days, under the arrangements of Team Chu, the three of Bai Mo also had their own positions and responsibilities in the team. Rather than being protected like the first night.
Two days of patrol also gave the three of them a basic understanding of what they were going to do.
It’s just that Zhou Tianyuan and Zhao Qingying are still a little nervous when facing monsters, and the speed of magic description is not as fast as these old mages.
But in Chu Yunlong’s words: “It’s like that!”
The next days are about getting familiar with and persevering. Bai Mo feels that this Jiufeng Mountain is not so much a A gathering place for demons that humans are guarding against.
It is better to say that it is a training ground for the military mages of the Magic City, because they have become familiar with it over the past few days. He also had some understanding of the Nine Peaks in Zhongzhong Town.
The nine patrol teams per peak are not fixed and change every month. The replaced teams are basically practicing, and the captains of each team are mid-level mages who have not mastered mid-level magic.
The commander of each peak is a high-level mage who has not mastered high-level magic. The top commanders they first met, Gu Changying and Gu Juntong, were super-level in the music system, but they had not yet mastered super-level magic. .
Bai Mo knows that Mo Fan masters magic very quickly despite the original work. But for an ordinary mid-level mage, the time it takes to master an intermediate magic is no shorter than the time it takes for them to go from a rookie who doesn't know magic to a junior mage who is struggling to use magic.
So don’t increase the level and super level.
And the configuration of Jiufeng Mountain is just to prevent a group of monsters?
Bai Mo felt a bit outrageous.
When Bai Mo thought that he would spend the past half month smoothly, what happened in front of him made him have doubts again.
"Mind Control-Void Claw!"
The invisible force lifted a gray fox-faced demon in front of everyone. This was a dead demon, and its heart was missing.
“Another dead Dust Wind Raccoon Dog, and it has lost its heart. It looks like the wound was caused by the Storm Wolf!”
After examining the dead Chenfeng raccoon dog, Bai Mo remembered that Chu Yunlong had told them on the first night that they should pay attention to the high-frequency struggles between the two groups. Then he said to Chu Yunlong who was standing in the middle of the crowd:
"Captain Chu, have we encountered too many dead Chenfeng raccoon dogs recently?"
