Chapter 10 - Hidden Danger

More and more students entered the Magical Beast Forest. Under the protection of the Two-headed Wind Wolf, the Golden Hound disguising as the Golden Hound King frequently appeared before their eyes. Then, it quickly disappeared, luring more students to come.

The Golden Hound did not try to escape into the depths of the Magical Beast Forest, which gave the students more confidence.

The students of the various academies could still maintain their restraint when they met each other, but the bounty hunters and warriors from outside were not so easy to deal with.

The Magical Beast Forest had always been a good place for internal strife. They could push all the blame onto the magical beasts if they killed somebody.

Here, the number of mages who died at the hands of the magical beasts was far less than the number who died at the hands of humans.

The black-robed man had also blended into the team that was hunting Golden Hound. However, at this time, he had already changed his appearance. He was wearing the clothes of a bounty hunter, and the magic patterns on his face were covered. As he walked forward, he contacted his subordinates.

When he saw Lin Suxin and the others enter the area where level 5 magical beasts roamed, his eyes immediately lit up. He immediately activated the sound transmission magic array. "Stand by. The genius girl of the Lin family has entered."

"She's going out with her friends. There shouldn't be anyone protecting her in secret. The influence of the Lin family is great. We can try those magical families."

"Yes, sir." A suppressed voice came from the magic array.

In this large-scale operation, they weren't just joining forces with the King of Magical Beasts. They had people on the outside and inside.

The atmosphere in the forest began to become strange. Traces of blood and traces of fireballs could be seen occasionally in the grass.

Lin Suxin and her three friends were the first to notice it, and their expressions immediately changed.

"The situation is not right. Too many mages have been killed. When fighting a level 6 Golden Hound, who would have the time to fight among themselves?"

"Even if it's an internal fight, there are too many people around. Once a fight breaks out, people will find out and they will be punished when they return to the city."

"But the movements around the blood stains we saw were very small. Either they used the magic array disk to seal the space in advance, or the difference in strength was too great and they did not have the ability to resist. I suspect the latter situation. Who is attacking the low-level mages maliciously? What do you think?"

"I also agree with the latter situation. There is only one force that is most likely to do this, the black mages!"

"The Golden Hound advancing to the Golden Hound King is probably their disguise. We can't deal with it. Call for help."

Lin Suxin and the other four discussed with each other and quickly summarized the general situation.

Without hesitation, a magic firework rose into the air and exploded, forming a gorgeous magic array in the air. The news was sent to the two nearest cities and the academy where they were.

That was the magic firework that students used to call for help when they were out.

Looking at the magic array in the air, many people still did not understand what had happened, but some sharp bounty hunters had already begun to retreat.

They had gathered together because of money, and they often went deep into dangerous places. The hunters who survived had all trained their instincts to avoid danger.

The further they retreated from the area where level 5 magical beasts appeared, the lower the level of the magical beasts they encountered.

However, the hunters who turned back discovered that this was not the case.

The area where they at supposed to be the territory of level 4 magical beats. However, there was a level 7 magical beast that commanded level 6 magical beasts.

At this moment, the entire Magical Beast Forest was like a circle. Lin Suxin and the others were in the middle of the circle. In front was the territory of level 6 magical beasts, and behind them was the territory of level 4 magical beasts. However, at this moment, a level 7 magical beast appeared in the territory of level 4 magical beasts with a level 6 magical beast.

The magical beasts were forcing the mages moved further into the forest.

However, the deeper they went, the more terrifying the magical beasts inside became until they met the King of Magical Beasts.

The bounty hunters hid themselves and watched calmly from the side.

When the students began to retreat, they also discovered that they were surrounded by level 7 and level 6 magical beasts. However, the magical beasts did not attack directly. Instead, they continued to close in, as if they wanted the students to go deeper into the forest.

When Lin Suxin saw this scene, she frowned and felt uneasy.

A few of her friends were also panicking. The Mage Alliance and the Magical Beast Forest had always been peaceful. Occasionally, there would be conflicts between magical beasts below level 7 and humans. In the past few hundred years, high-level magical beasts had never attacked humans, and humans would not go looking for trouble with high-level magical beasts.

Now, were the unspoken rules that both sides followed about to be broken?

Once it clashed, it was hard to say what would happen in the outside world, but the students who were still in the forest would definitely not survive.

"This is bad. What should we do?"

"Why don't we break out of the encirclement and enter the depths of the forest? Even if the magister comes, it would be useless. No one can save us unless we send out the archmage."

"How do we get out of here? There are level 7 magical beasts guarding everywhere. We can't even use earth evasion or fly."

"Don't panic. The intelligence of a level 7 magical beast is not much different from that of human adults. There's a possibility of negotiation. I'll go and find out what their intentions are first. I suspect that there's a black mage behind them. Let's not let strangers get close to us."

Lin Suxin pulled the three of them back and comforted them.

Then, she cast a flying spell on herself and flew directly to the level 7 Two-headed Wind Wolf. Standing at a safe distance, she asked directly, "What is the Magical beast Forest trying to do?"

"Are you doing this to start another war with the Mage Alliance?"

"What is the King of Magical beasts thinking?"

Lin Suxin stood in the air, not afraid of the powerful aura of the Two-headed Wind Wolf at all.

Surprise flashed in the eyes of the Two-headed Wind Wolf, and then it raised its head slightly and said in a low voice, "No comment, step back!"

"Roar ~"

The Two-headed Wind Wolf roared, and a strong wind blew in the air, blowing Lin Suxin to the ground.

The strong wind not only blew Lin Suxin away, but also exposed the hidden bounty hunters below the forest.

The hiding bounty hunters were already close to the edge of the encirclement.

Seeing that they had been discovered, the bounty hunters near the edge began to flee at high speed.

The Two-headed Wind Wolf ignored the few hunters that had escaped and continued to press forward. Its level 6 magical beasts chased after them.

Lin Suxin was originally a little happy. If the Two-headed Wind Wolf had turned around to chase after them, she would have been able to run with her friends. Seeing this scene, her mood became even worse.

Although the students of the Magic Academy were of higher quality, their ability to fight and escape in a life-and-death situation was not as good as those bounty hunters.

The hunters could escape, but they could not.

Lin Suxin landed on the ground and looked at her three friends. "Let's send a signal to ask for help together."

"It's hard for me to summon many teachers from the Academy by myself, but there will be some helps from my family. Now that the entire Magical beast Forest has gone wrong, no matter how many people come from my family, it won't be of much use. It's best to inform the Mage Alliance."

"I hope that the hunters who escaped can be faster."

The three of them looked at each other and sighed helplessly. They took out their distress magic fireworks and exploded in the sky above the Magical Beast Forest.

In the other directions, there were also different academy's distress magic fireworks flashing.

In the shadow of the forest, the man who planned this operation laughed softly. His body flashed and he disappeared without a trace.
