Chapter 17 Hunting the Black Beast

"I'm going to stay here and command. Don't go too far away from me."

"Otherwise, if any danger occurs, I won't be able to arrive in time." Yang Zuohe seriously instructed Xu Dahuang and others.

His words seemed more like they were directed at Xu Mu, because the Black Church's real target was Xu Mu, not Xu Dahuang and others.

Xu Dahuang patted his chest. He didn't know that Xu Mu was being hunted by the Black Church, but he still promised confidently: "Don't worry, I will take good care of you as a newcomer."

"If there's any danger, throw fireballs into the sky. I'll go there the first time I see it."

……

"I didn't expect that Brother Xu Mu is also a thunder mage." Xu Dahuang seemed very excited about Xu Mu's arrival.

If we do well tonight, maybe we can get Xu Mu to join the monster hunting team directly. If we tell others about it, they can also proudly declare that we have a thunder mage in our team.

He has made up his mind tonight to display all his strength to Xu Mu, let Xu Mu admire him, and then join the monster hunting team.

"By the way, I remember there seems to be another thunder student in Tianlan Middle School?"

"Yes, his name is Xu Zhaoting and he is my classmate in the class next to mine." Xu Mu nodded.

"Tianlan Middle School is really lucky this year. We actually have two students with thunder attributes. I remember that there was not even one student with thunder attributes in the last class." Fei Shi commented from the side.

"Now it seems that God has put the thunder system from the previous class into this class."

"Xu Mu, how long does it take you to release magic?" Xu Dahuang asked suddenly.

Xu Mu is his team member. As the captain, he needs to understand the opponent's strength in all aspects, regardless of whether the opponent will join the monster hunting team after tonight.

"5 to 7 seconds. If I'm lucky, it can be less than five seconds." Xu Mu pondered for a moment and chose to lie.

In fact, the speed at which he released the Lightning Seal had long been close to instant, even faster than Tang Yue's release of the Fire Seal. This was why he dared to eavesdrop on the Black Church's plan.

Without some strength, how could he dare to go out and play? He just didn't expect that there was a mid-level mage playing sixth in the corner.

"5 to 7 seconds. Yang Zuohe said that you have only been awakened for a year. You have this much strength in just one year. You are too amazing." Xu Dahuang was a little shocked.

Thunder stars are difficult to control, and the awakening time is short. He has already prepared for Xu Mu to take ten seconds to release magic. With this strength, what kind of newcomer is he, except for having no combat experience?

"It's better than me. I remember I could only release it within five seconds when I was in my senior year of high school." Xiaoke, who was walking in the middle of the team, shared his experience.

"We should all be about the same. I was also in my senior year of high school," said Li Wenjie.

"Sister Caitang should be more powerful. After all, she is from the Mu family and has resources."

“Don’t brag about me. My talent is worse than yours. Even with the resources of the Mu family, my strength is about the same as yours.” Caitang rolled her eyes. She had the worst talent among this group of people.

If it weren't for the resources provided by Uncle Zhuo Yun, she wouldn't even be qualified to join the city's monster hunting team.

As everyone was chatting and laughing, they passed a deep alley when a black beast suddenly emerged from the darkness and quickly attacked Fei Shi with its sharp claws.

"Be careful!" Xu Dahuang shouted.

"Water Control-Guard!"

Xiao Ke reacted quickly and stretched out his hand into the air. Suddenly, several water ribbons emerged in the air. They quickly intertwined together to form a set of armor made of water elements, tightly covering Fei Shi's body.

The sharp claws swung across, and they were sharp enough to easily penetrate the concrete wall, but when they touched the layer of armor made of water, they seemed to hit an invisible barrier and were effectively blocked.

Realizing that the attack was ineffective, the black beast planned to retreat.

"Don't even think about running! Ground Wave!"

Following Fei Shi's low shout, the ground seemed to come alive and instantly became as soft as a quagmire, surging and undulating like waves, bringing back the black beast that was trying to escape.

"How dare one of them run in front of our monster hunting team?" Xu Dahuang sneered, and a ball of hot fire ignited in his hand.

"Fire~explosion!"

With a deafening explosion, the black beast was burned to death by the fire.
