Magic!

Click.

Russell pressed the shutter button on his phone.

Clara raised the tentacles wrapped with colored crystals and faced the direction of the flame giant. The crystals emitted brilliant rainbow light.

An invisible spiritual shock hit the flame giant across a distance of more than 20 meters.

Spirituality!

Mental beating!

Affected by two spells at the mental and soul levels at the same time, the flame giant's brain seemed to have been stabbed by sharp spikes. His eyes suddenly became hollow and blurred, and blood even flowed from the corners of his eyes.

Just as Russell raised his phone, a white-haired girl and a pale humanoid silhouette were simultaneously outlined beside him.

The wind chime flew straight towards the flame giant who was affected by the psychic spell and fell into a brief daze, and pushed out with his slender right hand.

The right hand that exuded ice blue light touched the flame giant, and the ice blue light spread rapidly on the giant's huge body.

A deep chill suddenly filled the surrounding open space, and even a few white crystals appeared on the trees and bushes.

Ghost Touch!

The Sleep Demon also pounced on the Fire Giant and clawed out his pale and fuzzy claws.

Claws of the spirit body!

Snap, snap, snap, snap.

The strange summoned beast that Subway summoned in advance, hovering in the air, spit out a series of sharp gravel from its mouth like a machine gun, and the yellow sand fell on the body and shadow of the flame giant.

Innuendo!

Snap, snap, snap, snap.

Subway took out the pre-drawn Gatling machine gun from his dimensional pocket and used the real machine gun to attack the Fire Giant.

The double damage from the body and soul exceeded the tolerance threshold of this college student. After Clara added another mental whipping, the huge giant collapsed to the ground.

boom.

The giant fell to the ground, kicking up large swaths of dust, flattening strange trees and shrubs, and making the entire land tremble like an earthquake.

As the third-year student in the Department of Transformation and Transformation lost consciousness, the flame giant's body suddenly shrank and returned to its original human appearance.

The wooden alchemy puppets, which had a strength close to that of a second grader, rushed towards the unconscious master on the ground.

Russell took a step across and stopped in front of these puppets.

The young man with a clear appearance raised his chin slightly, still looking serious, and his eyes were filled with emerald green fire.

Just seeing the green flames in Russell's eyes, the three wooden puppets stopped moving at the same time.

Because they have all turned into gray-white stone statues!

Subway and Clara, who had learned about Russell's abilities in advance, deliberately avoided looking into Russell's eyes at this time to avoid being affected by the petrifying gaze.

"This ability is generally effective against strong people, but it is quite useful against a group of low-level enemies."

Russell ended the possession state of the skull sculptor, took back the mobile phone magic weapon of the skull-shaped spirit body, and turned to look at the unconscious man on the ground:

"It was probably in the early or middle third grade. I didn't expect that we defeated a strong third grader in less than 10 seconds." Russell sighed.

Russell was convinced that it would be easy to defeat an enemy of this level relying solely on his own strength, but the battle would never end in an instant like this.

The cooperation of Subway and Clara, two teammates who are half a third grade and have certain ability to leapfrog challenges, is indispensable.

"Sure enough, we cooperate with each other and it's easy to deal with one hunter, even if we deal with hunters from multiple high schools!"

Subway said proudly as he walked up to the man and searched out three sapphires from the man's pocket:

"There are so many! It seems that this guy relied on his transformation spell to turn into trees, stones and rabbits, and he ambushed many times.

"What a great harvest. This way we have four sapphire trophies!"

As for the deformation and transformation hunter who returned to human form, he was also petrified by Russell and put into his dimensional pocket.

With a successful example of fishing against hunting, the three people became more confident and continued fishing.

According to the information Russell had learned before, there were only a dozen hunters from the High School, and now two of them had fallen into their hands.

In the next two or three hours, the three of them successfully conducted two reverse hunts.

The target once was a senior student from the Civil Engineering Department. She wanted to build a hidden stronghold in this open space, but was attacked by Russell and three others.

Another target was a senior from the Department of Astrology and Numerology. Relying on his prophecy ability, he learned that "there are hunting opportunities and big fish in this open space." He found Russell and the other three people under the big tree, but he didn't know that he was the big fish being hunted.

After these two hunts, the number of trophy sapphires reached 9, which means that about 1/3 of the sapphires among the participants in this forest hunting competition were gathered in the hands of Russell, Subway, and Clara.

The three people divided the spoils equally, and adding the sapphire that each contestant originally carried, now each of the three has four sapphires, worth 40 college gold coins.

"Russell, you have made the greatest contribution in these battles. Shouldn't you share more?" Clara raised her small tentacle holding a bag of gems and asked softly.

"It's not necessary. At best, I'll take more care of you when you grow into a truly powerful Old One." Russell shrugged.

Subway and Clara, who were familiar with Russell's physique, immediately understood the meaning of Russell's words.

He used his abnormality to intentionally interfere with the flow of fate and achieve a certain degree of freedom of speech.

…

It was 3:30 in the afternoon, and there was still an hour and a half before the forest hunting competition ended.

The three hunters passed through layers of shrubs and weeds and approached the clearing where Russell and the other three were.

They are two men and one woman, and they are all members of the Star Magic Research Club.

"This year's colleges and universities are taking assessments, and our Star Magic Research Club's performance is no worse than last year." said a boy with red hair, sharp eyebrows, and a strange charm and temperament all over his body.

The silver badge on his chest indicates that he is a third-year memeticist in the Department of Psychiatry and Illusion.

Now the three of them have 7 sapphires on hand, which represents the successful hunting of 7 junior house contestants.

"Another gratifying news is that the new spells developed by several research societies and in the experimental stage have been put into practical use in this actual combat assessment." He has light blond hair, glasses on the bridge of his nose, and a A boy with a scholarly temperament said:

"In more than an hour, this competition will end. Most of the contestants have been eliminated, and the remaining prey is getting less and less."

The badge on the chest of the boy with eyes shows that he is a third-year student in the Department of Astrology and Numerology, and the corresponding major core course is called "Fortune Theory."

Those contestants who were successfully hunted basically thought they were eliminated and contacted the teacher to leave the dense forest early.

Although in theory, as long as you snatch a sapphire from the hunter of the High School before the end of the hunting game, you can still pass the level. But the probability of success is so slim that the contestants who have been deprived of the sapphire have no hope at all.

"I'm trying to use divination to locate the surviving prey. Alas, there are not many prey left. It's not easy to find." The man with glasses said and sighed again.

"Wait, are those three in front of you prey?"

The third person in the hunter team, a girl wearing black Gothic clothes and holding a black umbrella, suddenly stopped and pointed straight ahead.

In front of the four people, including the red-haired young man, the boy with glasses, the girl with black umbrella, and the white-haired girl with wind chimes, under the giant tree, two teenagers and a large group of tentacle monsters were gathering together, looking at their mobile phones.
