Chapter 88 Mountain Spirit
"Can space rotation change the location of the wizard who casts magic and the magic he casts?" Bai Mo confirmed.
He saw it clearly just now. Two silver lines suddenly flew out from the star map, connecting Xiao Jun and Lie Quan. Then the space flashed, and the scene before him appeared.
"That's right, but the range of the intermediate magic space rhythm is limited. Turning it around won't allow you to move instantly." Xiao Jun nodded and continued.
"Space has a myriad of changes. How much we can achieve depends on the intelligence of our space mages. Next, I will talk about time lag and compression."
"I believe you can also sense it when you use these two magics. Space lag and space compression, in addition to the control of space gravity, also have the shrinking and expansion of normal space. These two space techniques are also extremely brilliant if used well."
Next, Xiao Jun demonstrated the application of space reduction and expansion. She condensed a section of space and threw a handful of fire in front of her. In an instant, the fire passed through the large arena and hit the opposite wall directly.
Then, she pointed towards her feet, and endless space expansion force poured into the ground. In just a moment, deep cracks appeared on the ground.
She waved her palm again and grabbed the ground that had been cut into pieces.
I saw a large piece of land flying up and falling directly into the small space in her white and delicate palm.
Bai Mo looked at Xiao Jun in astonishment. He suspected that this man had some hidden agenda.
"I'm just showing you these techniques. It's still difficult to do these with your current magic power." Xiao Jun flicked his hand, and the piece of land fell to the ground, exactly the same as when it was collected.
"That's all for today, you can go back." After saying that, Bai Mo saw a flash of silver light, and Xiao Jun moved away in an instant.
There are only two words in Bai Mo's mind now: Six
He looked at the piece of land, and tried to draw a space system star map, condensing a diamond-shaped space on his palm, and he continued to expand the space.
However, he discovered that when the space was expanded to three times the size of his palm, the consumption of magic energy increased exponentially, and it was impossible to expand to such a large area.
So Bai Mo gave up decisively. The application of these skills should be adapted to the circumstances, done according to one's heart, and adapted to circumstances. They should be used flexibly to attack, defend or assist when necessary.
Instead of just copying the answers according to Xiao Jun’s demonstration just now.
Bai Mo was looking forward to learning the space formation later, but he didn't know what Dean Xiao would talk about.
When Bai Mo returned to the classroom, Dean Xiao was already waiting there.
"The knowledge of formations is vast. At your age, you should do more to practice, gain experience, and broaden your horizons."
After Bai Mo sat down, Dean Xiao began to speak.
"The purpose of the space formation course offered by our school is not to make you a formation master, but to teach you how to use and create some common and practical space formations."
"The earliest space magic array was imitated from space magic, but you also need to have some basic knowledge of arrays."
Bai Mo was wrong. The knowledge of formations was not interesting. It was rigorous like mathematics and could not be sloppy. There were many points that needed to be remembered and understood.
When Dean Xiao had almost finished explaining the basic theories of the formation, it was almost noon.
Bai Mo was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the space formation was just like the undead magic. Jiuzhou was different from other countries.
The space formation of Jiuzhou emphasizes the harmony of heaven and man, the heavenly stems and earthly branches, and is naturally flexible. However, the space formation of the West is angular and full of rules and boundaries.
After finishing the dizzying array theory class, Bai Mo sat on the second floor of the cafeteria, looking at the lake outside the window and clearing his mind.
He was going to go back to see the hollow willow, and when he passed by a section of the road on his bicycle, he saw a woman calling out loudly on the street, calling out someone's name.
She looked extremely bad and even a little crazy. From the conversation of the elderly people on the roadside, it seemed that her child was lost some time ago. She would come here to call at this time every day.
Bai Mo is not a defender of justice or an angel who saves the world. Finding missing people is the duty of the police. He took a look and continued forward.
The time of the day is fixed, and so is the time of more than three months.
Today is the winter solstice. The maple leaves in the yard have fallen thickly, lying on the ground in a red mass. The glutinous rice balls in the bowl are steaming, and a faint white mist is rolling.
"Why didn't my brother-in-law come?" Ding Yunwu warmed her hands with the hot bowl and looked at her sister beside her in confusion.
"He also wants to be with his family."
After replying softly, Ding Yumian, who was sitting in the pavilion in the yard, looked at the broken glutinous rice balls in the bowl, scooped them out of the bowl, and blew gently into them.
“Huh~”
Bai Mo sat at the table at home, picked up the bowl and drank a mouthful of soup. As for the big thing inside that was as big as a mahjong tile? His mother Zhuang Xingyan didn't eat that thing, and neither did he.
I just went to sweep the graves this morning. The tedious process was very tiring. Now I can't even have a good meal.
“So annoying!”
Lingling sat in the classroom, listening to the demon teacher bragging about his own hunter exploits and the exclamations of her classmates, and felt a little annoyed.
The winter solstice is not a legal holiday, so she has to be in school even though it is a holiday on Friday.
The get out of class was about to end, so she decided to ask for leave in the afternoon. After making the decision, she took out a stack of leave notes from her homeroom teacher from the drawer.
Walking on the street back, Lingling looked at the alley ahead that was shaded by the tall building, her thin eyebrows slightly raised.
Out of the corner of her eye she saw a student from the same school walk into the shadow and then disappear!
Lingling shook the half-full bottle of Coke in her hand and threw it towards the trash can in the middle of the shadow.
The bottle missed the target, and the echo of it hitting the ground could be heard from far away.
She silently took out a bead, held it in her hand, and walked over slowly.
Walking into the shadow of a seemingly normal building, Lingling approached the beverage bottle lying on the ground, bent down, picked up the bottle and threw it into the trash can.
Nothing happened, as if what she had just seen was an illusion.
She walked back to the road at a leisurely pace. Qingtian Hunting Station was neither far nor close to her school, and she had no plans to take a car.
She was just walking back normally, but she could always feel that someone was watching her.
Lingling looked through shop windows and rearview mirrors of cars parked on the street, but didn't notice anything following her.
Perhaps most people would think it was an illusion, but Lingling knew it was not, and she believed in her own feelings.
There weren't many pedestrians on the road near the Qingtian Hunting Ground, and Lingling had no intention of changing the route. She wanted to see what was following her.
But before that, I need to find a helper.
So Lingling took out her cell phone and sent Bai Mo a shared location.
Lingling: [Location]
Lingling: Come here and grab something
White ink: Good
Lingling was not afraid of being seen by the guy behind her fiddling with her phone. What bad intentions could a little girl have?
Since the guy behind dared to take away a student in a crowded place like the school, he must not be a coward.
Most people won't care about a little girl's actions.
As for Bai Mo, he had already flown out.
Lingling is really a savior. Finally, I don’t have to eat those weird-tasting foods.
On the deserted street, yellow fallen leaves lay coldly on the ground, some as small as a palm and some as big as a human face.
Lingling looked at the humanoid creature in the middle of the street, with his hands behind his back and his entire body wrapped in a hooded windbreaker. She stopped and frowned.
Although there aren't many people on this street, it's not completely deserted. Now it's empty, and it's obviously what that thing did.
Ling Ling asked calmly, "What are you?"
"I'm a good man, little sister, and uncle will take you to an interesting place." A very friendly and gentle male voice came from the shadow covered by the hood.
As it spoke, it took a step forward, followed the continuous shade of the trees and came to Lingling's side, stretched out a crystal clear palm and pressed towards Lingling.
Lingling looked at it expressionlessly, her fingers pinching the bead containing the Demon-Judgment Sword without any intention of using any strength.
A gust of wind blew through the hall, lifting the ends of Lingling's hair.
“Buzz!”
A barely perceptible vibration in space sounded, like the chirping of a dying cicada. The man in the windbreaker suddenly retracted his hand, only then realizing that the breeze was not a natural phenomenon.
His figure was deformed and twisted, and was about to merge into the shade of the tree under his feet. However, a more powerful invisible force suddenly grabbed it.
The distorted and changing shadow calmed down and turned into a person in a windbreaker again.
The strong wind blew off the hood of the man in the windbreaker, revealing a man with green hair, a pair of pointed ears and green eyes.
Bai Mo fell from the sky next to Ling Ling. Looking at this strange-looking person, he asked in surprise:
"Stranger?"
"No, it's not a human." Lingling shook her head, her sharp eyes carefully scanned the face of this thing, and then she explained to Bai Mo:
"In the southwestern part of our country, south of Ningzhou, there is a small city-state called Danan. In the mountains and forests of Danan and Ningzhou, there lives a group of demons called mountain spirits."
"They look very similar to humans, and most of them have unusual features, but their eyes and hair are emerald green, and their ears are pointed. They have no physical distinction between male and female, and often reproduce on their own."
After hearing this, Bai Mo’s first reaction was: Isn’t this a shemale?
He looked at the thing that was controlled by his telekinesis, reached out and pulled its hair, which felt like grass, and pinched its pointed ears.
Bai Mo didn't take the angry look of this thing seriously, and asked slowly:
"So why are these things here? Why are they targeting you? What are their strengths? Why do they have the ability of shadow?"
Lingling's face was extremely stern, and her eyes revealed extreme disgust as she looked at the creature in front of her.
"In ancient times, the image of mountain spirits was still easy to identify, but in modern times, people's clothing style is more open, which makes it easier for these creatures to come to human cities. At the same time, they are not low in intelligence and can speak some human languages."
"And their favorite food is human children or young women. In fact, the hunting station has received many cases of disappearances due to trafficking, fraud, and trafficking. Some of them should be done by these mountain spirits. They are actually the leaders of many fraud and trafficking gangs."
After explaining why the mountain spirits appeared in the city and their purpose of coming to the city, Lingling began to educate Bai Mo about the strength of this kind of demon.
“Mountain elves are good at manipulating plants and can blend into them. Some of them can master one more elemental power, mostly earth or shadow. If they master one more ability, they can also blend into objects with that element.
As for their ranks, they are usually warriors, and if they have two magical powers, they are great war generals."
"So, it is usually difficult for the city monster hunting team to catch them. This time, it is you who has to do it. Otherwise, any mid-level wizard may not be able to do anything to it, and will be killed by it instead."
After listening to Lingling's story, Bai Mo also understood the situation of the thing in front of him, and at the same time remembered some rumors about the Magic City.
It is said that there are some trees on the streets that eat children and women.
He glanced at Lingling and said, "It looks like it has targeted you. When?"
"Not long ago, when I came out of school, it had kidnapped a primary school student before that. I don't know if he was eaten or hidden somewhere."
Bai Mo touched his chin and did not kill the mountain spirit. Instead, he asked:
"In this case, there should be more than one mountain spirit among the demons. Since they are intelligent and can communicate, we should be able to use them to find the mountain people hiding in the Demon City!"
"Yeah!" Lingling nodded, "I think so too, let's put it in grandpa's room."
Bai Mo's mouth twitched. What a good idea.
Back at Qingtian Hunting House, Lingling has to go to school and Leng Qing has become the deputy chief judge, so there are more and more things to do. When Lingling and Leng Qing are not in the hunting house, Old Man Bao will sit in the hall.
When the two came back, he raised his head and looked at the mountain spirit who was controlled by Bai Mo.
"Old Bao, do you have any way to make this mountain elf reveal his accomplice? This guy almost kidnapped your granddaughter today."
Arriving at the hall, Bai Mo asked.
"You want to find other mountain spirits in the Demon City through him?"
"Is there any problem?" Bai Mo asked puzzledly. Lingling also looked at her grandfather with a frown.
"Mountain spirits are too cunning. They can live in groups or alone, and they usually have cooperative relationships with their own kind." Old Man Bao narrated slowly:
"Some people have caught mountain spirits before and tried to find out the whereabouts of all mountain spirits in this way and eliminate all trafficking and fraud organizations led by mountain spirits, but they all failed."
"Why?!" Lingling looked at Old Man Bao and asked.
“Because each mountain elf comes to the city alone, they usually meet in the wild and don’t communicate their identities in the city.
If two mountain spirits found each other in the city, they would even think of killing each other. "
