"What's going on..."
The students watched the scene in bewilderment.
"Are you all right?"
A voice came from the fog, and then several figures walked out.
When they saw the people coming, the students were stunned at first, and then they looked surprised.
"chief!!!"
"Great, we're saved!"
"I thought I was dead..."
The students were talking excitedly.
Alicia originally wanted to ask them what happened, but given the situation, she couldn't speak for a while.
"Ah! Bastards, you little bastards!"
On the other side,
The only surviving man in black robe was cursing angrily.
At the same time, he reached to his waist and took out something.
call out--!
Before he could make any further move, a beam of light pierced through his body.
"Uh...you..."
He only had time to utter a word before he followed in the footsteps of others.
The signal that I wanted to send out could not be sent out.
"This person wants to send a signal?"
Alicia also noticed what was in his hand.
Hulim nodded:
"Yes, so it's better to deal with him directly."
Then she looked at the students she had just rescued.
"Now, can anyone tell me what's going on?"
... ...
after a while.
Hulim and the others got information from these students.
About a few hours ago.
Suddenly, a thick fog spread from the outside to the inside of the forest.
Manakos's students were not stupid. Faced with such a situation, they immediately realized what was wrong.
Some of them planned to return to Manakos's camp to see what was going on.
However, these people never came back after they left.
Instead, a large number of mysterious men in black robes appeared in front of the students who were still in the forest.
When these black-robed men met the students, they attacked without saying a word.
They are very powerful, and there are some powerful superior people among them.
The students were powerless to resist.
The only thing to be thankful for was that their attacks were aimed at incapacitating the students, with no intention of killing them directly.
Whenever a student was knocked down, he would be taken away by some black-robed men. No one knew where he was taken...
"... Hulim, the situation is not good."
Alicia said with a serious expression.
"Well, indeed..."
Hulim replied, she also deduced the underlying problem from the current situation.
"Professor Griza is at the camp, but this situation still occurred. Which means—"
"The enemy has A-rank experts, and there's probably more than one."
“… …”
"...What should we do now?"
Hulim thought for a moment and replied:
"We can't just sit there and wait for death. If we stay in the forest, the enemy will narrow their search area sooner or later. We have no choice but to take the initiative and attack. In short—"
"Let's go investigate first."
After deciding on a temporary course of action, Hulim prepared to take action.
She looked at the students.
"You will come with us and help us gather the other students who are still running away along the way. This is a war and we need to gather manpower."
"Yes, Chief!"
"We listen to you..."
The students responded one after another.
"Okay, let's go."
After saying that, Hulim started walking towards the outskirts of the forest.
"Um, Chief..."
A student's hesitant voice came from behind.
Hulim turned and looked at them.
"What's wrong? Any other questions?"
“No… I don’t know if this should be called a problem…”
The students looked behind Hulim with hesitant and somewhat puzzled eyes.
"Excuse me, why is there a bear following you?"
The bear in question tilted his head and looked at them in confusion.
"Hmm?"
... ...
"ah--!"
The outer area of the forest.
An armed man in a black robe covered his arm and wailed in pain.
"You can try sending the signal again."
Opposite him, a girl holding a silver wand was looking at him coldly.
"I wonder how many hands you still have left to do these little tricks."
The girl's words immediately frightened the man in black robe.
"Speak, I'll speak! Please don't kill me!"
Afterwards, the black-robed man told Hulim everything he wanted to know...
"... ...As expected, there is an A-level, and it's the top of the A-level."
Alicia frowned.
"Unless the dean comes, there's nothing we can do..."
"The dean may not be able to arrive in time. Now we need to find a solution on our own."
Hulim replied.
Extend one finger at a time.
call out--!
"ah!"
The black-robed man looked at Hulim in disbelief.
"you... ..."
Then he died.
As he breathed his last, a magic tool used for sending signals fell out of his only remaining left hand.
