Sword Sorcery

Chapter 373 The Village
Snapped!
The head fell to the ground with a muffled sound, which also made the remaining two students fall silent.

Before they could understand this fear in detail, there was another noise from above, and three wizards in black robes slid down the rock wall. It was the coyote, the water rabbit and the lava.

As soon as they got down, they saw the corpses and heads on the ground, and the hyena couldn't help frowning: "What's going on?"

Qingjiu said succinctly: "This guy wants to be a 'deserter', so I just killed him."

"The green eagle said it well."

Aaron helped her with a good word: "Besides, I had ordered them to search the vicinity beforehand. As a result, this guy wanted to bypass me to please Qingjiu, and he obviously had bad intentions."

"I see." Coyote's brows stretched, and he said with some disdain: "Hmph, another idiot who can't see the situation clearly. I can't imagine that there are such idiots in the Black Wizard Academy!"

Seeing this situation, Water Rabbit and Lava also showed 'disgusted' expressions, thinking that the tall and thin young man was 'more than guilty'.

In fact, what the tall and thin young people said is not wrong. They have completed the investigation task assigned by the academy, and they are indeed qualified to report back to the higher authorities—it is just that they are 'qualified'.

Because the Wizards Union did not clearly stipulate that the students can return after completing the investigation mission, so the real decision-making power lies in the hands of the wizards.

In the eyes of the wizards, the students are the scapegoats who are used to "send their lives" - life-threatening search tasks, let the students take the lead first, and the wizards make a decision after seeing the situation.

How could the wizards be willing to let the students go and face this risk themselves?
"Okay, let's search the vicinity."

Aaron gave instructions to the two students, and specifically said: "Don't forget the 'rules' of the Wizarding Union."

The two students nodded hastily, turned around and got into the grass, and started a search operation.

Aaron was not worried that the other party would take the opportunity to escape, because if they dared to do so, it would be tantamount to 'betraying' the alliance, and they would be wanted by the entire dark wizard region in the future, so he specifically mentioned some 'rules'.

After arranging two students to do the most dangerous thing, the five wizards sat down where they were, and began to rest and chat——

"We were allocated the third lot in the second area."

The coyote drew a long line on the ground and divided the long line into three sections, which represented the first area, the second area, and finally the third area.

The black and white wizard alliances cooperated to divide the Yongwu Grand Canyon into six areas, and each area had roughly equal forces. Among them, areas 1 to 3 belonged to the Black Wizard Alliance, and areas 4 to 6 belonged to the White Wizards. Wizards League.

The two sides do not violate the river water, and each invades the assigned numbered area.

In addition, the second area is also divided into six sections, and Aaron, Coyote and others are in the third section.

Of course, the real underground area is more than this little place.

It's just that according to the information from ancient times, the entrances to the underground area are all inside the Yongwu Grand Canyon. If wizards want to invade the underground, they have to find the real entrance in the canyon.

So, when Aaron saw how dense the underground forest was, he couldn't help frowning——

Because of the overly lush forest, it is more difficult for them to find the real entrance.

Fortunately, they didn't have to find the entrance right away.

"According to the plan, we will do a rough search for the 'third lot'."

Aaron interjected: "If we can't find the real entrance, we will immediately go to the fourth section and join other wizard teams to build a strong 'blockhouse' together."

The coyote stopped what he was doing, and said in agreement: "Yes, we just follow the plan of the Wizards Union."

After speaking, the coyote took a deep look at Aaron, but he didn't care about the other party's behavior of "talking".

Aaron smiled slightly, knowing that the other party recognized his strength, which was exactly his intention to show his strength, and other people, including the hyena, looked at him differently——

It was a look of 'approval'.

The time passed in a chat, the green eagle pestered Aaron to say a few words from time to time, the water rabbit remained silent as always, only the lava seemed to be in love with the green eagle, the former raised the argument with the latter from time to time, the two The smell of gunpowder between the two is getting stronger and stronger.

Fortunately, the coyote would speak out to stop it every time, and finally no major conflict broke out.

After about an hour,

pat pat
There was a sound of footsteps in the nearby grass, and everyone turned their heads to look quickly, only to see the two previous students running out. They looked a bit embarrassed, but their expressions were very happy——

"Master wizards, we have found a village inhabited by underground creatures!"

"Inhabited villages?!"

Aaron couldn't believe it, because they hadn't entered the real underground area, which was equivalent to discovering a village of underground creatures on the 'surface', which made him feel confused for a while.

Others expressed similar doubts, and the coyote said directly: "Impossible, the foggy area of ​​the Yongwu Grand Canyon has just dissipated, and the underground creatures will not move so quickly even if they move!"

"You are not lying, are you?"

The red-haired female student immediately became anxious when she heard the words: "We really didn't lie to anyone, even if you gave me ten guts, I wouldn't dare to lie to wizards and adults!"

The hyena saw that the other party's performance did not seem to be fake, and they had no need to lie, so they couldn't help but believe it.

"Shall we take a look together?"

The hyena asked the other team members, including Aaron, and everyone agreed——

"Okay, I think I should take a look too."

"agree."

"I also agree."

So, a group of wizards followed the two students into the grass and headed towards the settlement they said.
salad salad
A burst of sparse footsteps echoed in the jungle, awakening some insects hiding among the trees. They heard the sound and looked, but saw black-robed figures walking under the shade of the trees, as if blending with the surrounding environment.

Aaron sniffed his nose, felt the moisture in the air, and couldn't help frowning: "It turns out that the water in the ground is sufficient to this extent, no wonder the plants grow so lushly."

At this time, the team in front suddenly stopped, and the red-haired female student at the front lifted a branch, pointed to a village below her vision and said, "Master wizards, the village we found is ahead."

Aaron looked up, and using the chip's focusing ability, he immediately saw the 'creatures' in the village clearly.

They are a group of strange-looking humanoid creatures, with long ears like fans, eyes that are like small mung beans, a bit stooped, slender limbs and wrinkled skin, looking inexplicably disgusting.

"Giant ears?"

Aaron recognized the other party's identity through the chip. When the others heard this, they finally remembered the situation of the giant ears. Next, they looked at Aaron in amazement——

The types of underground creatures are complex, and it is definitely not an easy task to identify the identity of the other party at once.

For this, Qingjiu admired even more: "Red Eye, I didn't expect your memory to be so good."

"It's just a coincidence."

Aaron replied modestly.

The coyote observed the village below for a while, and thought it was not a hard bone, so he made a decision: "Everyone, get ready to do it. By the way, do you have any suggestions?"

"Is there any suggestion for this?" Lava shrugged his shoulders: "Let's go straight in."

The water rabbit remained silent, but the green eagle snorted disdainfully at Lava's 'suggestion'.

At this time, Aaron interjected: "There are quite a few people in this village. I suggest killing the wizards on the other side first. Also, about the captives and information."

As he said that, a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth——

"Adults are so easy to lie, we just have to keep a few kids."
