At the temporary campsite of Ren Zha's army in Nanke Forest, the night was as dark as water, shrouded in mist, and the cold atmosphere was as pervasive as running water...
Qing Qing, who has been hiding in the shadows, is inevitably sleepy late at night. Frogs are chirping in the forest, cicadas are chirping, and the night wind is blowing through the leaves, making a rustling sound...
But at this moment, all the sounds disappeared in an instant, and the forest was eerily quiet.
However, this situation only lasted for a moment and then returned to normal.
Qing, who was still very sleepy, suddenly became energetic. She turned her head and saw that Ren Jie, who had been sleeping peacefully in the tent, had disappeared...
Not only that, Mo Wanrou, Jiang Jiuli and the others all disappeared...
Qing's heart skipped a beat as her figure suddenly emerged from the darkness and rushed out of the tent.
The entire camp was eerily silent, with a faint mist floating in it. Looking around, there was no one in the camp.
Whether they were in tents, sleeping bags, or the students responsible for keeping watch, they all evaporated out of thin air.
In the huge camp, only Qing is left alone...
"Ren Jie! Where are you? Ren Jie!"
Qingfang shouted loudly, but only her voice echoed in the forest, and no one responded to her call.
I saw a sharp flash in Qing's eyes:
"Damn, what's going on?"
He has been protecting Ren Jie so closely. Even if someone is targeting Ren Jie, it is absolutely impossible for him to move Ren Jie away without him being aware of it.
Even more than 3,000 students in the entire camp were moved away en masse.
If there really is such an existence, Qing can't even imagine what level of enemy it must be.
"Shadow Crow!"
The endless darkness converged towards Qing, condensing countless shadow crows, heading in all directions of the camp, never letting go of any clues that could be found...
However, she searched an area with a radius of several kilometers and found nothing unusual. With so many students disappearing, there should be footprints and breath left even after they left.
But there was nothing, it was like the camp evaporated out of thin air.
Qing was not without any discoveries. Far away in the camp, she found the footprints of more than a dozen people. Although they were well hidden, she still dug them out.
"Did the aura of the devil's bonder use a hidden barrier? Huh! How brave! I don't know which party it is from!"
"Illusion... or something?"
Qing really couldn't figure out how the students disappeared and where Ren Jie went. She left a special mark on him, but she couldn't detect his aura at all.
"Chengying!"
At this moment, countless shadows flew like ribbons, condensed, and turned into a huge shadow sword, slashing violently at the woods.
"Boom!"
The forest with a radius of several hundred meters was directly destroyed and flattened on the spot, and even a layer of the land was scraped off.
"Tsk~ Isn't it an illusion? What on earth is going on?"
As a protector, if he lost the target he wanted to protect without knowing it, then he would no longer have to work as a protector.
The most important task now is to find out where Ren Jie has gone. This is the most critical thing.
The only clues are the footprints.
The matter was so important that Qing didn't dare to delay and contacted him immediately.
"Shen Ci, the third devil disappeared in Nanke Forest. The reason is unknown. The specific situation is..."
Shen Ci was awakened from his sleep:
"What? Didn't even you notice it at all?"
"She disappeared in Nanke Forest, right...could it be..."
Qing frowned: "What is it? Finish talking!"
Shen Ci frowned: "Is it related to the strange stories in Nanke Forest? You should know about Nanke Yimeng, because there have been disappearances in Nanke Forest not once or twice."
"The Demon Suppressing Legion, the Demon Suppressing Department, and even the Demon Suppressing Envoys sent by the General Secretary have all come to investigate Nanke Forest, but the reports did not point out any abnormalities."
"The superiors suspected that there was some new species of demon with unknown abilities that led to the disappearance, but no clues could be found."
"In the previous disappearance cases, there were only a few dozen people missing at most at one time. There were also cases where missing persons reappeared... But this is the first time it has happened on such a large scale..."
Qing narrowed her eyes: "Is it an unknown demon? It concerns the third devil. Things cannot be inferred according to common sense. The only clues currently are the footprints of the dozen or so devils."
"There are only a few parties that can be suspected, the remnants of the Demon Claws and the Poker members. I hope that the Demon Suppression Division will send personnel to cooperate with the investigation, but don't make it too obvious..."
Shen Ci nodded: "Clear! Excessive tension and protection will attract attention and arouse suspicion. People from the Demon Suppression Division will cooperate with the academy in the search to hide Ren Jie's true identity."
"I'm begging you over there. Anyone can get into trouble, but the Third Devil must not get into trouble."
Qing slowly clenched her fists: "No need to say more, I know my mission very well!"
After saying that, he hung up the communication.
At the same time, at Nanke Base No. 1, the staff responsible for monitoring suddenly discovered that all the students’ bracelets had disappeared out of thin air.
And no more vital sign data was sent back. They rubbed their eyes in disbelief, confirmed that it was not a problem with the equipment, and quickly reported it, their faces turned pale.
"No! Something happened!"
Tuanquesen, Luo Changge, and the other three mentors were also stunned after learning the news.
The first reaction is how is it possible?
All students disappeared overnight?
This is hell.
The three of them immediately rushed to the scene of the incident without stopping, only to find the deserted camp and hundreds of meters of destroyed forest vegetation.
There was also Haru who was standing in the camp looking around.
A look of solemnity suddenly appeared on the faces of the three people, and they entered the fighting state directly.
"Who? Did you do this? Where have all the students gone?"
It’s no wonder that the three of them were so nervous, because they felt extremely dangerous in the masked woman, and the hairs all over their bodies stood up instinctively...
Qing tilted her head and looked at the three of them. She just glanced at a few of them coldly before her body turned into a black shadow and shattered, disappearing. Only her words echoed in the endless darkness:
"You don't need to know who I am. Don't put your investigation energy in the wrong direction. I'm also investigating this matter. I will notify you if there are clues..."
Chang Ge and the three of them looked at each other and couldn't help but look at each other. What is the background of the masked woman?
It's not like she did this, otherwise there would be no need to stay there and wait for her to come.
Can't you explain the origin?
Chang Ge narrowed his eyes, with a wry smile on his face: "Now things are getting serious..."
Demon hunting test, all students mysteriously disappeared overnight? There is no way to explain this to the hospital.
"Notify the hospital and dispatch all available tutors to conduct a comprehensive search and don't let go of any clues!"
"Contact the military, as well as the Daxia Defense Force and the Demon Legion stationed in various Nanke bases, and cooperate with the action to seal off the entire Nanke forest tightly. Don't let a mosquito fly out of here until the person is found!"
As soon as the incident broke out, many parties mobilized to search for the missing students. The demon hunting test, which had been broadcast for five days, went black, indicating that the signal was interrupted...
