Weird Wizarding World

Chapter 38 Take the initiative

The next evening, in the wooden house on duty.

One after another, new spindle-shaped "arrows", or darts, were thrown into the soft animal skin bag placed on the table by Colin, making a tinkling sound when they collided with each other.

After it was half full, Colin tied it around his waist and stored it close to his body.

This wasn't the only place on his body where he kept a spindle dart. In order to prevent him from falling into the embarrassing situation of having no darts available, he stored more or less fusiform darts in multiple places on his body.

In addition, he also carried some dry food made by Renee with him, just in case.

Everything was ready, and he waited quietly in the house.

According to common sense, there should also be a black-maned giant pig attacking tonight.

What he needed to do was wait until the patrolling city guards noticed the movement, sound the signal flare, and then rush over quickly.

Before that, Holt will work with Mallory, the first-class apprentice of the Chiwen Gang, to plant a mark on the wild boar before they come.

Then wait for them to join together at the same place, and then follow the marks together to catch up.

The moonlight outside the window is bright and clear, and the silver moonlight shines into the window, quietly dissolving into the soft white light of the bright crystal.

It's a nice day tonight, with the moon and stars scarcely visible, and you can see clearly everything in the fields without even needing a torch.

I sat in the room and waited for a long time, but the signal flare never came. Colin kept thinking about it, but he was a little unable to calm down and practice.

"I still haven't experienced a real battle..." He chuckled in his heart, but he didn't think it was anything.

Before an exam, an interview, playing a boss in a game, or even before setting off for a trip, people will inevitably have their hearts beat faster.

This feeling is mixed with excitement, nervousness, anticipation, fear, etc. It is difficult to summarize simply and is also human nature.

Colin pushed the door open and went out, facing the wooden house, slightly bending his legs, and then jumped up.

The terrain outside the city is flat, which is not only conducive to farming, but also means that the view is not easily blocked. He stood on the roof and had a panoramic view of everything around him.

Groups of city guards holding torches patrolled the fields regularly, drawing orange tracks in the dark night.

The cool breeze blew by, and his heart gradually calmed down again. After performing a golden cleansing blow on the roof below him as usual, he sat down cross-legged and began to practice meditation.

Time keeps passing.

Tap tap tap tap——

The footsteps of the city guards came from far to near, and then from near to far. Patrolling back and forth.

I do not know how long it has been.

Bah!

boom!

An orange signal flare suddenly exploded in the night sky, which was extremely eye-catching. In an instant, Colin's fair face was covered with a layer of faint orange light.

Before his mind could react, his body had already jumped from the cabin.

But before his toes touched the ground, he heard a swish sound coming from the wooden house on the right!

Looking up, he saw a figure rising into the sky and quickly rushing towards the direction from which the signal flare was launched. It was Holt.

Looking further to the left, there is also a wizard flying quickly in the night sky there. It should be Mallory from the Chiwen Gang.

Colin exhaled slightly, feeling that the blood in his body was inexplicably agitated. He no longer hesitated and hurried along the field ridge.

The wind whistled by my ears, and my strong and powerful feet stepped accurately on the narrow dirt road in the fields.

After a while, he saw a little fire coming from ahead.

After a while, the unique neighing of the giant black-bristle pig also entered the ears through the air.

But as he got closer, the neighing of the giant black-maned pig became farther and farther away.

When he reached the firelight, all he could see was a small group of city guards holding torches, and the two wizards Holt and Mallory standing there waiting for them.

Perhaps it was because the area where the giant black-maned pig attacked happened to be the area he was responsible for, so he was the first to arrive besides Holt and Mallory.

After Colin greeted them respectfully, he stood aside and waited.

Large tracts of wheat fell in the field in front of them, forming a clearly visible trace leading to the dark forest.

‘It seems that Holt and the others have marked the giant black-maned boar and driven it back to the dark forest. ’ he speculated secretly.

Ta-ta-ta--

With the sound of approaching footsteps, more and more wizards gathered around him. He didn't wait long before everyone arrived.

Holt looked around, counted the number of people, and gave a crisp order.

"Set off!"

He immediately moved forward, while Mallory came to the back of the line.

After a while, they followed the trail to the edge of the dark forest.

"After entering the forest, shrink your formation, pay attention to the people around you, and don't fall behind!"

Before entering the forest, Holt stopped and turned around to remind him in a deep voice.

Colin was walking behind him, with Catherine and other team members beside him.

After Holt reminded him, he used the light technique to summon a light ball to float in front of him, and then took the lead into the forest.

Colin followed.

As soon as he stepped into the dark forest, he obviously felt completely different from the outside world... The dark forest was extremely quiet and had an inexplicable eerie feeling.

With the soft white light of the light ball, Colin looked around.

There are trees of various shapes growing all around, some with tangled and crooked roots, some with deep roots and leafy leaves, tall and straight... But they all have one characteristic in common -

That is the bark and leaves that are so dark that they are almost black.

This color makes them look like pure black shadows. If you stare at them for a long time, you will even have the illusion of twisting and swaying.

Hall led everyone forward firmly and unhurriedly, adjusting the direction slightly from time to time.

Along the way, Colin also saw many traces of the activity of the giant black-maned pig. The group also encountered attacks from some snakes and insects, but they were all dealt with in advance by Holt or Mallory.

After a while, Holt's pace suddenly accelerated, and he didn't adjust his direction anymore, and moved straight and quickly in the fixed direction.

‘It should be that the giant black-maned pig returned to its lair and then stopped moving. ’ Colin speculated in his mind.

After moving forward quickly for a while, everyone came to a mountain col. Directly in front of them was a huge, dark cave.

"stop."

Holt waved his hand back, a cautious look on his face.

Entering the cave rashly is obviously not a wise choice.

He thought for a while and called Mallory.

"I have a way to find out what's going on inside the cave, but I may need your help."

Mallory nodded, motioning for him to continue.

Holt took out a handful of rice-sized seeds from his arms and said:

"This is the seed of Mayweed. After it grows, it can roughly sense the life strength of the creatures around you. I need your help to blow it evenly into the cave."

"No problem." Mallory nodded.

He stretched out his hand to catch the brown seeds and threw them into the air. The brown seeds were lifted up by a gentle breeze and flew quietly into the cave.

After a while, Mallory nodded and said;

"That's it."

Holt nodded slightly and began to perform the technique.

In the cave.

Those Maygrass seeds scattered on the ground quietly sprouted, and the fragile seed coat was gradually torn. The germ popped out and quickly grew into a Maygrass plant about ten centimeters long, with the thin hairs on it swaying in the wind. .

Outside the cave, Holt closed his eyes and felt carefully. After a moment, he opened his eyes, a smile appeared on his face, and he said lightly:

"Let's go. There are only dozens of ordinary ferocious beasts inside. They should all be giant black-maned pigs."

"This should be their nest."
