"...Lord Kasim, this is the closest place to Langard. Those people from Manakos will definitely set up camp nearby."
A man in black robes spoke respectfully to a figure.
The figure did not respond to him, but just looked quietly in the direction of Langard.
A long time passed.
The figure then spoke lightly:
"Go ahead, prepare your trap, and wait for your prey to jump in."
"yes!"
Several men in black robes responded and then left the figure.
After those people left, a man in black robes who was still standing next to the figure asked cautiously:
"Master Cassim...shouldn't we ask Master Takeshira for some support? If those people from Manax come out, we might not be able to handle it alone..."
“… …”
The figure did not answer his question.
Just when his back was about to be wet with cold sweat.
The usual indifferent voice came from the air.
"unnecessary."
"That old man 'Ming' wouldn't leave that academy to come here."
"And the others..."
The figure slowly turned and walked towards the forest behind him.
Under the deep night sky, the vague and indifferent voice echoed in everyone's ears.
"...not a big deal."
... ...
... ...
The day of the team competition has arrived.
Led by many Manakos teachers, the third-year students came to the Monster Forest closest to Langard.
"Starting today, you will spend the next three days in the Monster Forest before you!"
In the outer area of the forest, the camp set up by Manakos.
A teacher is explaining the rules to third grade students.
"During these three days, you will need to take care of your own food, sleep, and survival needs, as well as collect as many of these magic crystals as possible."
The teacher took out some magic crystal samples and showed them to the students.
"Remember, no matter how you obtain the magic crystals, we will only count the number you have at the last moment."
"If anyone is unable to continue the assessment due to injury, please send out a distress signal immediately. Someone will come and rescue you back to the camp."
"But I must remind you that if that happens, you will be directly judged as unqualified, so you'd better be careful to avoid that kind of situation!"
"above!"
"Does anyone else have any questions?"
“… …”
The teacher looked around at the crowd, but no one asked any questions.
The students already knew the details of the team competition.
"Well, then, I declare—"
Seeing that no one had any questions, the teacher announced loudly,
"The team competition assessment begins now!"
... ...
in the forest.
"Hulim, where are we going?"
Miko asked.
Hulim glanced back at the two people behind him, thought for a moment, and replied:
"Anyway, let's go deeper first. There shouldn't be too many magic crystals on the periphery."
For this exam, Manake specially used a large number of magic circles to form a continuous barrier, enclosing a large area of the Monster Forest.
Such a barrier can disguise the magical fluctuations of a powerful existence. After the monsters sense it, they dare not approach this area, thus avoiding the situation where too many people enter the forest and attract monsters from all over to gather and form a monster tide.
However, the academy will not eliminate the monsters originally in this area. If there are too few monsters, the academy will even drive some monsters in from other places.
This is to prevent students from being too relaxed.
Similarly, regarding magic crystals, according to past practice, the academy will place more magic crystals in more dangerous places.
The deeper you go into the Monster Forest, the more dangerous it becomes.
Therefore, if you want to obtain as many magic crystals as possible, going deep into the depths is the best choice...
The three of them headed deeper into the forest.
When he reached a certain place, Hulim suddenly stopped.
Seeing this, Miko and Alicia also stopped.
"What happened to Hulim?"
Miko asked doubtfully.
"Look there—"
Hulim pointed to a big tree not far away.
Miko and Alicia looked in the direction of Hulim's finger and saw a very huge tree with a large bird's nest on its crown.
"Huh? Is that the nest of the bird monster?"
"Look carefully at that nest."
Upon hearing this, the two of them observed carefully and soon discovered something unusual.
Something seemed to be glittering inside that lair...
Miko's eyes suddenly lit up.
"It's a magic crystal—"
Wow~!
At this moment, a cry suddenly came from the sky.
Then a strange black bird over two meters in size landed on the nest.
"That's the Steel-Feathered Demon Crow."
Alicia recognized the monster's identity.
"No wonder there are so many magic crystals in that lair. I heard that this kind of monster has a habit of collecting transparent objects."
"Very good habit,"
Hulim raised her wand and pointed it in the direction of the nest.
"It's convenient for us."
"Wow~?"
