413: Chapter 82 Who will be the coach_1 413: Chapter 82 Who will be the coach_1 In the wizarding world, hunting is a very serious matter.
Depending on the hunting thod used, hunting parties often choose different competitions.
For instance, the enclosure hunting mode which emphasizes teamwork, the trapping mode focusing on the rapport between hunters and their pets, the tracking mode testing the comprehensive abilities of hunters, and so on.
The competition chosen by the school hunting party is the most traditional enclosure hunting mode.
Under normal circumstances, the hunting team would enter different hunting areas after entering the field.
The seeking hunters separate themselves from the team as soon as they enter the hunting ground, proceed deep into the field alone searching for traces of demons, and continuously send back valuable information to the team.
Once the prey is spotted, the main hunter and two auxiliary hunters would strike swiftly to kill or capture the prey.
anwhile, the wandering hunters prowl around the outer periters of the hunting area during this period.
They can act as reinforcents when the team is in need, supplenting the combat power; on the other hand, wandering hunters are also responsible for safeguarding their team from other hunting teams looking to seize a mont of weakness to their advantage.
While wizards can hunt demons, demons can also counter-attack hunters.
Every ti they step into the hunting field, hunters must brace themselves for bloody battles and carnage.
Of course, compared to the perilous hunting fields encountered by mature hunting teams, the ‘Rookie Hunting Competition’ derived from the new school hunting party is relatively much safer.
Tad demons, inexperienced hunting teams, and less complex hunting environnts.
“Even so, we can not take this lightly!” Zhang Ji Xin stood on a stool, overlooking everyone, wildly waving his arm, and passionately proposing, “Even a tad demon is still a demon…
even if the school has arranged for a bunch of referees around us, accidents are still unavoidable…
”
“In the Rookie Hunting Competition of 96, a newcor from Alpha was corrupted by demonic aura and is still lying in the moonlight assembly’s ice coffin; in 99, a newcor from Starry Sky Academy got carried away with killing and charged into the wild demon herd- the most intact part of him that the school could find later was a piece of knee bone; also in 2001, a witch from Jiuyou Academy got scratched by a wild demon in the Rookie Hunting Competition…
she was permanently disfigured.” Xiao Xiao flipped open a notebook, citing one horrifying example after another, seemingly oblivious to their team leader’s increasingly pale face.
“Are we still going to hunt demons?” Zheng Qing asked weakly.
“Hunt demons?” Zhang Ji Xin jumped off the stool, shaking his head repeatedly,”Direct demon hunting isn’t possible…
you can’t directly go to hunt in the hunting fields without a proper foundation.
Definitely not, we do not have training or preparation, the best result after finding a wild demon is being chased by it and fleeing in panic.”
“The worst case?” Lin Guo, clutching his backpack, asked curiously.
“Worst case?” Zhang Ji Xin rolled his eyes and huffed, “It’s after you.
You get caught…heehaw…
what do you think might happen…”
“I don’t know.” Lin Guo shook his head honestly.
“You look soft and tender, you look delicious; those demons wouldn’t just eat you whole…they’d probably chop part of you up for dumpling fillings; another part would be sprinkled with fine salt, pickled, and saved as a dish for the winter.” Xin Fat Man, with the fat cat on top of his head, lowered his voice and continued to intimidate, “The rest of the torn flesh and bones, dried under the sun, would definitely be chewy, used as snacks…
it could last until the next counter-ambush…”
“Huh?!” Lin Guo drew out his words, face full of contempt as he looked at the fat man, “You think I would believe this kind of story ant to scare children?”
Maybe expressing dissatisfaction with Xin Fat Man’s intimidation of a young wizard, or rely tired of the dull eting agenda.
Blue Bird cleared his throat, and blurted out five words:
“Study and Coaching.”
Zheng Qing turned his head in surprise to look at the starry sky academy sorcerer.
In his mory, this was one of the rare monts that Blue Bird actively spoke.
The young public student even secretly guessed whether this usually less talkative person had used up an entire month’s worth of words for the night.
“Learn necessary skills and knowledge, then absorb it as experience under the guidance of a coach.” Xiao Xiao very solemnly took over the conversation, simultaneously quickly pulling out a blank piece of cardboard and sketching a few quick lines.
Soon, everyone saw what Xiao Xiao had drawn.
Three circles, each containing a word.
Know the enemy, know oneself, know one’s weaknesses.
“Our next task is divided into two parts.” Xiao Xiao pointed to the board and spoke confidently.
“The first part is about knowing ourselves and the enemy.
We need to understand as much as possible about the characteristics, classifications, habits, abilities, and weaknesses of demons.
This way, we’ll not be shooting wildly in the hunting ground.”
“Zhang Ji Xin and I can handle this part.”
Zheng Qing nodded again and again.
To the capabilities of Doctor Xiao, he had always held in high esteem.
“The second part, realizing our shortcomings.
We need to find a suitable coach…
It can be a professor, lecturer, assistant in the school, or even experienced staff.
They can help us train in hunting formations, combine magic…”
“There are only three days left before the school hunting party, do we have enough ti?” Zheng Qing couldn’t help asking.
“If the schedule announced by the student union today is correct, there are still fifteen days to the freshman competition.” Xiao Xiao reminded: “The freshman competition is held during the school hunting party’s intermission…
It doesn’t take place on the opening day.”
He then turned his head to the others: “What about the hunting team coaches, does anyone have any suggestions?”
The dorm was quiet for a mont, then imdiately erupted with bursts of noisy discussion.
“Elder, didn’t you always say your older brother is the main force of the school hunting team?
What about asking him for special training?” Xin Fat Man shouted loudly.
“He’s been absent from school for a while.” Zhang Ji Xin’s red face turned sowhat purple as he said breathlessly: “In a few months, it’s the Alliance’s Super Hunting competition, the school hunting team has been training intensively…I don’t know where they are.”
“So, the school hunting team is not planning to participate in this school hunting party?”
“They might send out a substitute team…
or they might co back to participate in the main competition.
Even a substitute team could probably crush all other hunting teams.”
“What about Assistant Hilda?
I rember he had a good relationship with our class…” Zheng Qing finally thought of other candidates after a long pause: “There’s also my interviewer, Thomas.
He’s quite warm-hearted.”
“No chance.” Zhang Ji Xin dashed everyone’s enthusiasm once again: “All the assistants, including those slightly available lecturers and professors have been poached by the veteran clubs…We established our hunting team too late.”
“Do we need to recruit external coaches from Beta Town?” Lin Guo complained: “I know the prices of the coaches there.
They are always expensive.”
“Maybe you can hang a sign at the Wandering Bar,” Xiao Xiao looked at Zheng Qing and suggested: “I rember you have a gold card for the Wandering Wizard, the price should be a bit cheaper…”
“External coaches probably can’t even get into the campus.” Zhang Ji Xin vetoed: “We can’t only train when we get out of school on weekends.”
“Ah!
I rembered!” Lin Guo suddenly yelled.
The dormitory fell silent instantly.
All eyes were on the young wizard.
“Captain, didn’t we run into so night training hunting teams during the last patrol?” Lin Guo slapped the mice on his backpack with excitent: “That guy who greeted us, you know him, right?
He can help us!”
“Deng Zi!” Zheng Qing suddenly brightened up, turned around and laid on his desk, grabbing the brush and letter paper.
“I’ll send him a paper crane right now…he’s definitely not part of the school hunting team, he should have so ti.”
