Chapter 372 It’s All the Fault of Deformation
Following the good advice from the Chief, the hunting team went very smoothly that night.
Not only did they not encounter any unplanned situation, but with the help of Maodou, they easily found a nest of blue-billed roosters, one male, two females and five cubs.
No one in the hunting team planned to keep these cubs as pets, and the D&K store had limited space and could not accommodate five noisy little guys. Therefore, after their parents were kidnapped and sent to deliver the mission, these chicks were given to Maodou by Zheng Qing. Tooth-beating ceremony.
"It's such a cold and cruel world."
The next afternoon before the Magical Biology class, Zheng Qing happened to turn to Galliformes and saw the figures of the pheasants leisurely catching bugs in the forest. He couldn't help but shake his head slightly and sigh like this.
It's a pity that no one responded.
The young public-funded student resisted the urge to look around and tried his best to focus on the textbook in front of him. Because Magical Biology is an elective course and there are students from other colleges in the class, in order to avoid rumors and unexpected situations, Zheng Qing has chosen to sit far away from Jiang Yu in recent classes.
The other students in the class also intentionally or unintentionally vacated the seats in a circle around the wizard - some of them did not want to be involved in the biggest trouble in the school, but most of them felt more like Zheng Qing. It's "keep a respectful distance". It seems that some of the halo that originally enveloped Su Shijun is spreading to him unknowingly as time goes by.
This subtle atmosphere has relieved some of Zheng Qing's pressure to a certain extent. In daily life, there are far fewer people who are openly troublesome to him, and everyone will subconsciously keep a certain safe distance from him in public places; but at the same time, , but this atmosphere increased his pressure in another direction. To use a more fashionable word to describe it, there was 'idol pressure', and his every move was watched secretly.
Zheng Qing bets that if he smiled and said hello to a certain witch in class today or said a few more words, the next day's Beta Town Post or Bugle would be full of articles scolding him for being dissatisfied with the new and hating the old. , it is unlikely that there will be professional legal professionals analyzing the custody rights of Poseidon or the inheritance of Qingqiu Mansion property. Correspondingly, the witches who greeted him would inevitably have their identities revealed and endure some very irrational remarks.
After all, there are many brainless people in this world and people who think they have brains but actually have no brains, even wizards are no exception.
Click, click.
The second hand beat slowly, paying no attention to the anxiety in the wizard's heart. After Zheng Qing's unfocused gaze lingered on the textbook for a long time, he was slowly attracted to the pocket watch he placed on the corner of the table. He subconsciously raised his hand and pressed the tip of his index finger against the transparent glass mirror.
More than once, he imagined that his fingertips could penetrate the mirror like Mr., move the hands on the dial, and make everything go back to before the Bugle report came out - or fast forward to the end of this class.
But every time, the hard feeling on his fingertips coldly rejected his fantasy.
This time is no exception.
But when his fingertips touched the pocket watch, not far away from him, the whispers of two wizards diagonally behind him caught the boy's attention.
"A fox only costs two silver cents? How could it be reduced so much! I remember it was said in the mission that a fox costs five silver cents. Pay upon delivery... It makes no sense to regret it after only a few days!"
"Someone has already complained to the school working committee, but it is said that this task has not been notarized by the school and is a 'private entrustment'. The right of interpretation is in the hands of the entrusting party, so the probability of successful complaint is very low."
"Absolutely speechless!"
"Calm down, calm down... The fox is not a two-tailed squirrel. It can't fly. It's still very easy to catch. As long as you bring a chicken leg, you can earn a few silver coins by walking around the forest meadow between classes. It's very cost-effective. ”
"It turned out to be a good deal, but in the past few days, after catching and catching, there are fewer and fewer foxes that meet the requirements..."
For some reason, the voices of the two wizards became lower and lower, almost inaudible.
Zheng Qing finally couldn't help it. He raised his hands to support his head and glanced slightly behind him. He was shocked to find that the two wizards who were speaking were quite far away from him. Normal ears would never be able to hear sounds that far away. .
The sequelae of deformation!
These words immediately came to his mind, and the thoughts that were originally attracted by the 'fox trade' were instantly submerged in the sudden surge of uneasiness, so that when the round-faced lecturer walked in holding a strange tooth about a foot thick. When there were bursts of exclamations in the classroom, the young public-funded students were still rolling up their sleeves and carefully looking at the thickness and color of the vellus hair on their arms.
This absent-minded attitude sustains an entire section on magical creatures.
When the bell rang and the teacher on the podium said the word 'get out of class is over', Zheng Qing ignored the strange looks in other people's eyes and ran towards the dormitory with his textbook in hand.
Thankfully, upon closer examination, no other symptoms of metamorphosis were found on his body.
When Xiao Xiao hurried back to the dormitory, Zheng Qing had regained his composure and was flying a blue paper crane on the balcony - the paper crane was a reply to Jiang Yu. His previous behavior of leaving the classroom in a hurry also attracted the attention of the witch.
"It should be a benign sequelae."
After listening to Zheng Qing's rambling description, Xiao Xiao adjusted his glasses and replied with some uncertainty: "In short, if you want to feel at ease completely, you can either go to the school hospital for treatment, or control the number of deformations by yourself... Same as before. , I still recommend that you control the number of transformations."
Zheng Qing discussed this choice with his companions more than once. If he goes to the hospital for treatment, it means that his transformed form will be known to more people. In this environment, not only will he face more risks, but he will also be very likely to be punished by the school for "illegal use of transformation" - —After all, according to the original arrangement of the professors, Zheng Qing learned the Transfiguration Technique to treat his head ailments, and the number of times he could use it was strictly limited. However, he now regarded filling out the application form as some kind of perfunctory job.
"I don't have to change my shape now."
The young public-sponsored student sighed heavily, then changed his mind and thought again of the conversation between the two wizards he heard in class: "By the way, have you heard recently that someone in school has issued a mission to catch foxes?"
Xiao Xiao tilted her head and glanced at him.
After a long while, he nodded slightly.
"I heard about it." He didn't seem to want to discuss it.
Zheng Qing couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and intuitively the answer should be very unpleasant: "Is there anything I don't know? It feels like you are all hiding something from me."
Xiao Xiao seriously adjusted his glasses, and finally replied: "It's not a concealment. It's just that it won't do you any harm, but knowing about it won't do any good, so no one will talk about it... Speaking of which, this The matter also has something to do with your ability to transform. Recently, rumors have spread from somewhere that you are proficient in transformation and your transformed form is a fox, so you are favored by Councilor Su."
