Chapter 1999: Chapter 320: Saturation Applications
No need to exert any effort or bear any responsibility.
You just need to sit comfortably in the office and recognize the hunting team that plans to hang under your na—coincidentally, that team is called ‘Absolution,’ last year’s freshman competition champion. Though it hasn’t been established for long, it has participated in the school’s Winter Hunting and witnessed the brutality of the Black Prison Battlefield. From any perspective, it is worth entrusting.
If I were the professor, Zheng Qing couldn’t think of any reason to refuse.
Unfortunately, he was not.
And Professor Montreya is a very stubborn guy. This is evident from his insistence on conducting research on bloodline influence.
Sure enough, upon hearing the witch’s request, the professor frowned slightly and didn’t agree imdiately.
“It’s not that I’m afraid of trouble.”
He sighed lightly, perhaps worried about the witch’s expression, and added, “I refused so many hunting teams before for the sa reason: the laboratory’s projects have reached a critical mont, requiring coordination between the Alliance, Danghag, and the laboratory, needing to find a suitable test site for the experintal results to land, and still needing to complete so experintal details… Next week, or maybe the week after, I might take so ti off and let other professors stand in for your Magic Script Class…”
Saying this, the professor’s gaze fell on Zheng Qing behind the witch, reminding, “Student Zheng Qing should be aware that Montreya Laboratory’s bloodline influence experints have already yielded many results… Moreover, he spent a sester in my laboratory and knows my attitude towards life; I wouldn’t lightly entrust my reputation to soone else.”
The pressure shifted back to the young cost student.
Zheng Qing was inwardly lanting, his excitent from a few seconds ago disappearing as quickly as a sumr rainstorm. This was because, despite serving as an assistant in the professor’s lab, he found it difficult to gauge the extent of the laboratory’s achievents due to his limited perspective.
On the other hand, the professor’s understanding of him also matched Zheng Qing’s impression—stodgy, stubborn, responsible, and unlikely to handle any responsibility hastily.
The young man’s silence and the distress on his face tacitly confird the professor’s words.
This made the atmosphere in the hallway sowhat awkward.
Jiang Yu didn’t let this atmosphere continue to simr, still smiling, she sighed as if disappointed, “What a sha… but the experintal project is more important… there’s still plenty of ti, we can look for other Hunting Competition guides… sorry to disturb you, Professor.”
Professor Montreya also didn’t continue with pleasantries, nodding slightly, carrying the handouts and the stack of assignnts, and hurriedly left, his figure quickly disappearing at the end of the corridor.
Behind them, Matthew Karen’s voice unexpectedly ca.
“Looks like you guys failed too?”
He passed by the students, holding a reference book for the Magic Script Class, looking in the direction where the professor’s back had disappeared with deep emotion, “This makes feel much better… Even an excellent hunting team like yours didn’t succeed, at least we know the professor’s refusal is serious…”
This sounded like a complint but also like a mockery.
Zheng Qing felt there was sothing odd about it, but he couldn’t pinpoint exactly what.
“No need to worry.” He decided to put on a stern face, looking at the vampire in front of him, making a showing of impatience, “If there’s nothing else, we have other things…”
What a waste of words.
When this tone ca out, even Jiang Yu couldn’t help but turn her head, acting like she hadn’t heard it.
However, Matthew, perhaps used to hearing old vampires exchange idle words at the Karen Castle, actually found Zheng Qing’s manner particularly endearing and, after hesitating for a few seconds, added, “Just now in the classroom, I heard that The Duke is contacting tomorrow afternoon’s elective teacher… and Nicholas, it’s said they’ve already found a guide teacher… so… keep it up.”
The five hunters of the Absolution Hunting Team silently watched Matthew’s figure recede.
After a while.
Zhang Ji Xin finally couldn’t hold back, nudging the young cost student with his elbow, “Since when has he been so easy-going? Still so good-natured after you roasted him…”
“Ever since his cousin was outperford by your brother.” Xin Fat Man quipped on the side.
Matthew’s cousin, Sir Friedman, failed in the competition with Augustus, while Zhang Ji Xin’s brother, Uncle Zhang Zhi, beca the new Lei Zhe. This up and down revealed the fickleness of the world and the warmth or coldness of human relationships.
“If you have ti to worry about those frivolous affairs, why not think about the selection task!” Zheng Qing interrupted his two companions’ chat, looking around, “You all heard just now… we, Absolution, can’t be outdone by Nicholas’s Fringe Hunting Team. Since things didn’t work out with Professor Montreya, we’ll proceed with the previous plan…”
Then he looked at Xin, “Fatty, you go find Zhu Si, the sooner the better!”
“On my way!” The Fat Wizard had a good attitude, but seed slightly lacking in confidence, “Just not sure where that girl is hiding now… She’s always wandering around…”
“I’ll ask ng ng to help you,” Jiang Yu glanced at the Little Witch peeking at the classroom door, arranging, “She’s on good terms with Zhu Si, and will have so private way to contact her.”
Zheng Qing noticed the Fatty’s eyes light up.
“Just stick to business, no ssing around!” The Absolution team captain warned them uneasily before turning to the other two companions, “And you two…”
“I’ll take care of Teacher An from the Academic Affairs Office,” Zhang Ji Xin patted his chest, “When I went to my brother’s office at noon, I even saw him in the corridor… except for that Mysticism manuscript teacher, who is never seen outside of class. We’ll have to wait until tomorrow afternoon for that.”
“I’ll handle communications with the Magic Universe Study teacher.” Xiao Xiao also repeated his task.
“And the two of us need to approach the Magical Zoology teacher to apply.” After receiving Jiang Yu’s affirmative glance, Zheng Qing carefully calculated the number of applications and possibilities for his hunting team. The confidence that had been dashed regained montum, “I just don’t believe it, with such a saturation of applications, our excellent hunting team won’t find a guide teacher!”
It’s good to have confidence.
But randomly setting up flags is a very bad habit.
On Tuesday afternoon, after Magic Script Class, Absolution Hunting Team’s hunters launched their assault in all directions, even giving up many training sessions, scouring the campus for suitable guidance.
However, bad news followed one after another.
The worst of which ca from Xin Fat Man about Zhu Si.
“It’s been confird multiple tis.”
The Fat Wizard sat by the desk, his face ashen, a big round face hidden behind high-stack textbooks, as if he had no face to show others, his voice sounding sowhat helpless, “Zhu Si has beco the guide teacher for the Fringe Hunting Team… exactly Nicholas’s team… It is said that the connection was made by Sister Korma from the Sakura Pub.”
