After the golden retriever finished telling his grandpa's story, he looked around nervously.

Chu Shici waited for a long time, and seeing that he did not continue, he asked, "No more?"

The golden retriever nodded: "My grandfather only knows so much about the black shadow. Before he died, he told me that the black shadow is dangerous. He has seen people parasitized by the black shadow many times, and suddenly started to go crazy and eat people."

"At the beginning, I saw the witch shouting for hunger. I didn't think of it. It wasn't until I saw the black shadow that I realized that her condition was consistent with what my grandfather described."

Chu Shici remembered again that Golden Retriever reminded Huskies not to enter the forest at night.

He posed the problem to the golden retriever.

The man scratched his blond hair with a complicated expression: "The leader told us not to go to the forest recently, but that's not the point. I don't want him to go in because every time the full moon approaches, the night in the forest will become special. Strange. Of course, other times are not normal."

Ji Huaizhe frowned: "For example."

"When you enter the forest at night, there is a certain probability that you will encounter an identical figure. You may also encounter a situation where you will return to the original point no matter how you walk, or you will bump into a transparent mirror-like thing."

Chu Shici looked at Jin Mao carefully: "How do you know so much? It's also your grandfather who told you?"

The golden retriever shook his head: "My grandfather doesn't know this. He is the leader's guard and has been guarding the tribe all his life. What I said was explored by myself because I wanted to leave."

"Why? Aren't all your family and friends in the tribe?"

The golden retriever's ears were pressed even lower, and its body trembled slightly uncontrollably.

"I don't want to, but the leader is crazy. I want to escape from the Erya Mountains first, so that I can go to other orc territories and find someone to help."

He clenched his tail tightly, and his voice was full of tears: "The tribal leader's guard is a position passed down from generation to generation. My grandfather is a guard, and so am I. We are all trusted by the leader. He will order the guards to do some very confidential things in private. thing."

"Since I became the leader's guard, I found that every time the night of the full moon is approaching, the leader will order us to take some young orcs from the tribe and let them go outside, saying that they will become real warriors when they return, so that the tribe to be stronger.”

"People in the tribe trust the leader very much and will not have any doubts. Every time it is time to sign up, many parents will send their children of the right age. Then the tribe will hold a very grand warrior farewell ceremony. The young orcs Walk out of the tribe with the eyes of parents expecting."

Halfway through the speech, the golden retriever cried out.

"But these are all lies. The leader ordered us to take them to the goblin cave and kill them. Even if we don't kill the leader, we will do it ourselves. Once the guard resists, not only will he die, but even his relatives and friends will die. The leader will not let go."

"My mother gave birth to many children, and there are seven younger brothers and sisters in my family. The youngest brother is still breastfeeding. I didn't dare to resist at all, and secretly helped the leader kill many compatriots."

Jin Mao lowered his head and wiped his tears, Chu Shici was in a complicated mood.

When the dog man's mood calmed down a bit, he asked softly, "What will your leader do to kill those young orcs? Feed them to the gargoyles of your tribe?"

The golden retriever's handsome face was pale from crying, "No, that gargoyle has a very unique taste. It only likes to eat rocks in caves. The corpses of those young orcs were given to your principal and vice principal."

"I don't know much about the Wizarding Academy. The leader won't let us go there. The orcs believe that only by burying the body in the soil and letting the soul return to the natural forest can we receive the favor of the beast god after death."

After Jin Mao finished speaking, he looked at Ji Huaizhe pleadingly: "I see that you seem to be very interested in Sombra. If you want to know more about Sombra, I can ask other friends to help you collect clues."

"In exchange, can you help me steal the orc corpses from the Wizarding Academy, I want to bury them."

Chu Shici smacked his lips: "I have a small question. Have you killed any new young orcs recently?"

The guilt on the Golden Retriever's face was even more obvious, and he replied very implicitly: "It was last week, just after a full moon night."

Chu Shici turned his head to look at Brother Zhe, and asked him with his eyes, "In those days, the food was all human flesh?" '

Ji Huaizhe nodded silently.

Chu Shici: ...

It’s over.

Even if there are some small mountain villages in the Erya Mountains, according to the way of eating at the Wizarding Academy, people would have already run out of food.

He said that in this dilapidated place with no village in the front and no shops in the back, where did the wizard academy get so much human flesh for the apprentices to eat? It turned out that it was from the orc tribe next door.

The golden retriever looked at them expectantly.

Chu Shici didn't know what to say to him, but Brother Zhe was as straightforward as ever.

While other wizards were eating human flesh, Ji Huaizhe was eating vegetable salad.It may be that he thinks he has done nothing wrong, and he speaks with confidence.

"Wizards are believers in dead girls and have the habit of eating corpses. We usually eat ordinary meat, but every time around the night of the full moon, the college will prepare human meat meals."

The golden retriever froze for a moment, not understanding why he suddenly said such a thing.

After reacting, he cried out loudly.

This dog man is good-looking, but his life experience is miserable.Kneeling on the ground and crying now, Chu Shici felt distressed watching him.

He wanted to jump down to comfort Golden Retriever, but Brother Zhe held him down and stuffed it back into his pocket.

Ji Huaizhe looked down at the golden retriever.

He was silent for a long time, then handed over a handkerchief, and said in a cold voice, "I haven't eaten those, I only eat ordinary meat."

The golden retriever seemed to be feeling better, at least he didn't bark his teeth at him anymore.

Chu Shici looked at the dog man and sighed silently.

If the Golden Retriever investigates deeply, he will know sooner or later.It would be even more embarrassing if he came to question him at that time.

And there is no need to hide this kind of thing. Behind the cruel truth, there must be a conspiracy hidden.

The more Golden Retriever knows, the better for his investigation.

The dog man was an adult dog after all, and he quickly forcibly pulled himself out of his grief.

What Ji Huaizhe told him made him realize the seriousness of the matter.

The alliance behind the wizarding academy and the orc tribe is something else, and things are much more than that simple on the surface.

The orc leader can now send the young orcs in the tribe to the Wizarding Academy for food, and then he can donate the entire tribe in the future.

The matter is of great importance, and Golden Retriever is going back to discuss countermeasures with his companions.

Chu Shici asked him what his plans were.

The dog man looked around vigilantly, "As a dog-human race, I should be loyal to the leader, but I also want to protect my family and friends. If there is a chance, I will find a way to sneak out of the Erya Mountains and pass the news to the outside world. of the orcs."

He gritted his teeth: "If we really can't get out, then we can only... change to a more wise leader."

Chu Shici heard that the dog man wanted to rebel, and he thought for a while: "I heard that your leader is not in the tribe recently, and the huskies can run around by themselves. There should be no one in the tribe watching you. Since the forest will only have abnormalities at night, Then why don't you try to leave during the day?"

The golden retriever sighed: "I don't know why, but I can't go out without the leader."

"What is the specific method of not being able to get out? Getting lost, a ghost hitting a wall, or something else?"

"I can't tell, but whenever I feel like I'm about to leave, the world will suddenly start to spin. Then I will somehow return to the area around the orc tribe from near the exit of the Erya Mountains."

Huskies have encountered the world rotation that Golden Retriever mentioned before.

Chu Shici asked him to speak more carefully.

The golden retriever thought hard and pulled out several strands of golden hair.

"I can't see clearly at night, but when I rotate during the day, I can vaguely see the reflection of the mirror, and some things around me will be slightly distorted. Oh, oh! Sometimes I will see, as I rotate, several of me appear in all directions at the same time .”

The dog man worked hard for a while, and finally came up with a less abstract description.

"It's kind of like a . . . spinning kaleidoscope."

----

Because the husky has a good impression of Ji Huaizhe, the golden retriever also has a high degree of affection for him.

In order to protect himself, Ji Huaizhe wanted to escape from the Wizarding Academy.In order to save the orc tribe, Golden Retriever wants to leave the Erya Mountains.

The two hit it off and formally formed an alliance.

Ji Huaizhe is responsible for investigating the anomalies at the Wizarding Academy, and Jin Mao tries to find out the secrets of the shadows and the orc tribe as much as possible.

Before leaving, he gave Ji Huaizhe a small whistle, the style of which was the same as that given by Husky.

This whistle is unique to the dog-human race, and only dog-men can hear the whistle.

After each canine is born, his mother makes him a whistle.I hope that one day in the future, they can find a good master who is willing to play games with him while blowing the whistle.

The huskies and golden retrievers obviously didn't regard Ji Huaizhe as their master, they gave him only for the convenience of contact.

Although Golden Retriever has groped in the woods many times, he still hasn't figured out what the law of forest changes is.

He only knew that the possibility of abnormalities was higher at night, and the probability was even higher around the night of the full moon.

It was getting late now, and after being separated from Golden Retriever, Ji Huaizhe hurried back to the Wizarding Academy.

Chu Shici had nothing to do, sitting in Brother Zhe's pocket and meditating.

The system shared the good news with him, saying that the boss's side was going very well, and now only the Supervision Department is still holding on.

The Ministry of Supervision is a procuratorial and law enforcement agency. According to the regulations there, they have their own armed forces.

The rebellion of the members of the combat team has not been leaked yet, and now everyone and the unity think they are invaders from other planes.

After all, after the combat team was disbanded, without Brother Zhe and his team guarding them, plane invasions often occurred over there.

The Minister of Supervision also sent a letter of appeal to the original members of the combat team, hoping that they could reorganize the disbanded combat team and help the Supervision Department through this crisis.As a condition, they promised that they would release Brother Zhe to leave the world of punishment after the matter was fulfilled.

The boss of the system was going to do whatever he could, and took the opportunity to insert members of the combat team.Keep the team leader who was locked inside, and then attack inside and outside in one fell swoop.

The situation is good, and Chu Shici is very happy to hear it.

But this world of punishment is a bit weird, he wonders if they can last until the combat team members come to save people.

Seeing that the system had nothing to do, Chu Shici just took it to study the forest together.

'Brother, let's sort out our thoughts. '

【No!I don't want to talk to you about thinking, every time I can't understand!Just tell me the result. 】

'...It's because I didn't expect it that I want you to think about it with me. '

The system sneered: [Heh, it sounds like my brain can help. 】

Chu Shici kicked the system.

The system intentionally disgusted him, [The beauty kicks harder, give brother more rewards. 】

'……roll. '

After arguing with the system for a while, Chu Shici fell into deep thought again.

When Grandpa Golden Retriever was young, the forest was still normal, which means that the Ererya Mountains itself is not the problem.The reason for these abnormalities is that someone has set up some kind of formation here.

Senior Tom, Husky, Ji Huaizhe and Golden Retriever have all seen their backs in the forest.They have also encountered a situation similar to a ghost hitting a wall at the same time, no matter how they go, they will return to the original point.

But after senior Tom reported the matter to the Wizarding Academy, other students from the academy came out to join in the fun, and they tossed about for several days, but no one noticed anything unusual.

When senior Tom had an accident, Ji Huaizhe hadn't come to school yet, and there was no intersection between the two of them.

There is no similarity between the two wizard apprentices and the two dog men.

The night before yesterday, Ji Huaizhe went to the forest alone, and there was an abnormality in the forest.Last night, Lilith was brought together, but the forest didn't respond.

From the current point of view, the conditions for triggering the formation should have little to do with the person entering the forest.

In order to find rescuers, Golden Retriever tried many times in multiple places at multiple times, but finally failed to leave the forest.

This also shows in a disguised form that the triggering rules of the formation have little to do with time and place.

Chu Shici frowned in thought.

Who entered, when, where, and how, are not triggers.

So how does this formation work?

A flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and Chu Shici's spine instantly felt chills.

Who said that formations must be triggered automatically?

In order to forcefully sign a contract with Brother Zhe, Father Vicente used a lot of manual formations.

Chu Shici immediately raised his head, "Brother! Brother Zhe! Go back to the orc tribe first, I'm worried that something will happen to that golden retriever!"

Ji Huaizhe paused, "What?"

"The formation in this forest is likely to be manually operated. There are too many doubts here, so don't go back to the Wizarding Academy. Go to the orc tribe. The orcs there may not be able to help you."

Ji Huaizhe reacted quickly, and he walked back decisively.

But the moment he turned around, the world in front of him suddenly began to rotate slowly.
