Chapter 340: Chapter 169: Magical Beasts Forest_1

After a brief period of panic and chaos, each team essentially managed to stabilize their conditions, preventing an unfettered fall. However, due to the varying strength of the teams, their reaction speeds naturally differed, creating a rather chaotic scene.

Pulled along by his older cousin, Long Dangdang cast his gaze downward, while casting wind attribute supporting magic on his teammates. In this aspect, he was even better than Yue Li who was a mage, as Yue Li was a combined specialist of water and fire magic. Although she was cross-trained in wind magic, she could not match Long Dangdang, who was a disciple of the Wind Listener. Simultaneously, he also released some levitation techniques to the nearby demon hunters, helping everyone stabilize their bodies earlier.

Stabilizing their bodies allowed Long Dangdang ample time to observe their surroundings. Perhaps due to the vast forest below, the air here was exceptionally clear and pure. The weather today was particularly lovely, with clear blue skies and not a cloud in sight. The warm sunlight felt burning hot on their skin. Under these conditions, light specialty professionists had it the best, as the light element was exceedingly abundant.

The forest below was extremely dense. Looking down from the sky, all they could see were the large crowns of trees, making it impossible to observe the ground situation.

Being teleported into midair was certainly a unique move, but Long Dangdang had an unsettling feeling. It wouldn’t be that simple! The Devil Instructor had mentioned that this special training was all real combat with even a casualty quota. Given their usual 5th Rank strength and magic support, they wouldn’t be in too much danger. But if this was just an intimidation tactic, it seemed a little too easy?

"Everyone, be careful. There might be danger in the forest." Long Dangdang said loudly. He deliberately amplified his voice, not only to alert his team members but also to remind the surrounding demon hunting teams. After all, they were all fellow soldiers and needed to support each other.

At this point, they were less than 500 meters away from the forest. Almost as if to confirm Long Dangdang’s statement, the moment his voice faded, the treetops below began to tremble. Subsequently, strands of azure light shot up from below, heading straight towards them.

Long Dangdang fixed his gaze, only to see, innumerable azure birds rushing out of the forest below. They only measured about a meter in length and their wingspan didn’t exceed one and a half meters, yet their speed was incredibly fast. The azure light emanating from their bodies was a clear indication that these were undoubtedly magical beasts!

These sudden azure bird magical beasts, numbering in the hundreds if not thousands, were extremely fast and had already neared with each flap of their wings.

Long Dangdang’s warning played a vital role at this moment, causing everyone who had slightly relaxed to tighten up, with all their attention centralized.

Without the need for the leaders of the demon hunting teams to remind them, various magic auras burst forth. At medium and long distances, that was the territory of a mage.

This was also true for Yue Li, who released a water curtain in front of their team members. When the azure bird magical beasts entered the water curtain, their speed visibly decreased significantly. However, these magical beasts clearly weren’t that simple. The beasts whose speeds slowed down suddenly glowed with a sharp aura, puncturing holes in the water curtain, forcefully breaking free from it and continued to charge forward.

But Yue Li, a level six magic instructor, wasn’t that easy to be bypassed. She unleashed another water curtain to block the just escaped azure bird magical beasts. Concurrently, the temperature of the two water curtains plummeted, instantaneously solidifying into ice, freezing the azure bird magical beasts in their tracks within the ice layers.

Just as Yue Li was preparing to detonate the ice layers, Long Dangdang suddenly said: "Don’t kill them yet."

Yue Li, who trusted him the most, paused. After all, Long Dangdang possessed the Clear Moon Vast Ocean Spirit Furnace, which had a colossal impact on her future. The impending detonation of the ice layers froze for a moment before turning into a free fall towards the ground.

Wang Changxin looked towards Long Dangdang with a puzzled expression, "Why not kill them?"

By now, the various demon hunting teams had displayed their prowess, with the azure birds falling like a rain under the onslaught of magic. The one who killed the most, without a doubt, was Zisang Liuying, as for her, low-level magic couldn’t be any simpler. She killed the 2nd Rank azure bird magical beasts and made them plummet like mercury sliding down.

Only the azure bird magical beasts on Long Dangdang’s side fell onto the treetops amid struggles with the melting ice, without getting killed.

Long Dangdang and his team descended towards the direction of the azure birds while he explained, "The Federation always advocates ecological balance and has never carried out large-scale hunting of magical beasts. They even designate special habitats for them. Until the mission is explicitly declared, we shouldn’t hastily make decisions. The Devil Instructor emphasized that this is not a simulation or exercise, everything is real. Since it’s real, we should consider the Federation’s actual situation."

"But everyone else is killing them! What if the task is to evaluate based on the number of magical beasts killed?" Ming Xi voiced his uncertainty.
