Chapter 418: Ice Spikes

When Jiang Chanji walked to the Department of Elemental Science, he remembered that he was not a student of the department, and because of the dangerous abilities of the department, non-students of the department were not allowed to enter, but fortunately, Aurora was known to everyone in the school, so he called a student of the department and asked her to help call Aurora out.

However, the student went in for a spin and came out regretfully telling him that Aurora was not in it and seemed to have just gone out.

It's class time, it stands to reason that she can't leave school without the permission of the teacher, and Aurora is a model student who is particularly serious and hardworking, could it be that the teacher temporarily gave her some task?

He was struggling to go back to Xiaosui to call Aurora and ask where she was, when he saw a teacher he knew coming out of the department.

"Teacher Wang. He called out to Wang Yefei, "Do you know where Aurora went?"

Wang Yefei also recognized him, did not hide it, and said: "Aurora is experimenting with the new use of ability, but there is no suitable venue in the school, so she went to Beishan, and the front foot left early, do you have something to do with her?"

"That's it......" He suddenly realized that Aurora was really diligent, and when they were running around, they were silently improving themselves.

"I didn't ask her directly for a problem, but asked her to help contact one of her relatives. He explained.

"Oh, is it important? Then you can go over there and find her, and I'll help you talk about it over there, Teacher Li. ”

After Wang Yefei broke the demons, she no longer cared about the victory or defeat, and the whole person became cheerful and reasonable, she understood that it was not that she didn't work hard enough, but that some things could not be done with hard work, and she also got a laser cannon, although the power was not as great as Qianyang, but it could perfectly make up for her shortcomings of being too close in attack range and hitting rate, which had made her feel reborn and was affirmed by other teachers.

"Okay, thank you, Mr. Wang. ”

In fact, he can use the time to walk the horse every day to fly to Beishan, without having to report to Li Muqin, which is also his little privilege, but Wang Yefei is kind, so he did not refuse.

He came to the horse farm, took Frigga out, and rode it all the way to the North Mountain.

The equestrian teacher judged by Friggya's teeth that the age of this flying horse was about three years old, which is roughly equivalent to an adolescent girl when converted into human lifespan, and the Icelandic horse is a notoriously late maturing type, so it is still in the development stage, plus the horse farm provides nutritious feed, it is obviously stronger than when he first saw it, and the coat color is more shiny.

The Icelandic horse is also very smart, good at learning, and has been accustomed to Jiang Chanji's instructions, he pointed in the direction of the North Mountain, and it will neigh, spread its wings and fly over there.

He forgot to ask where Aurora was in Beishan, but since she was doing experiments, it was probably the location of no one else, and it was suitable to be near the address where Mei Yibai or Kali used to live, and since such and such things had happened in those two places, they had not been sold again.

But he had to be careful, what if hundreds of ice crystals fell from the sky just in time for Aurora's ability to activate and landed right on his head?

But today, the sun was shining and the sky was cloudless, which was the most unfavorable environment for Aurora to exert his abilities, and he also wondered what had to be tried in such a place?

He first walked around Mei Yibai's mansion, the wild grass in the courtyard had grown half a person high, the broken glass of the house had not been repaired, and the fountain had long since stopped spraying water, and there was no trace of Aurora.

Frigga broke through the wind with her wings and turned her horse's head to fly to the other side of the mountain, which was slightly higher.

The villa where Kali and Rafe had lived had been half destroyed by Jiang Chanji's fire, and from a distance he could see the blackened ruins, and on the nearby lawn, he saw Aurora's figure standing there.

"Aurora-senpai, don't shoot, it's me!"

In fact, Aurora had already heard the sound of flapping wings from afar, and the sound of the wind brought up by Friga's wings that were seven or eight meters long after spreading was comparable to that of a blower, and she heard the sound when it was still far away on the other side of the mountain, such a unique flapping sound that no other creature could make so far.

Jiang Chanji instructed Frigga to land on the lawn and let it find a place to graze on its own.

Holding a beautiful parasol, Aurora asked unexpectedly, "Chanji-san, how did you find here?"

"It's a little bit of a thing, I heard Teacher Wang Yefei say that you are here to experiment with new ways to use abilities, and then you came over. Jiang Chanji looked around and didn't find anything worthy of her coming here, "How is it?"

"Actually, I'm about to try, if you're in a hurry......"

"Don't worry, you can try it first, it just so happens that I want to open my eyes. He waved his hand, intending to wait until she was in a good mood when the experiment was successful.

"I don't know if I can make it yet...... she didn't refuse, "but you'll have to move a little away, you might be in danger standing there." ”

"Oh?"

Jiang Chanji was even more surprised, because he was talking to Aurora while approaching, and the distance between him and Aurora at this time was only about five or six meters.

Everyone knows that Aurora's hail rain is very powerful, but hail rain is usually a ranged range attack by default, and generally does not fall very close to oneself, because the process of hail falling from a high altitude is not completely controllable, and if a strong wind suddenly blows from the side, the landing point will have a large deviation, and it will not be fun in case the hail hits you.

Every time Jiang Chanji saw Aurora launch a hail rain, the landing point was at least a safe distance of more than a few dozen meters from herself, and the distance of five or six meters was too close.

"Come to me, I'm completely safe here. ”

"Good. Jiang Chanji approached, "Will I help you hold the umbrella?"

"It's okay, I'm fine. ”

Jiang Chanji stopped talking to bother her, and watched curiously.

In the past, when Aurora activated her ability, she would frequently look at the sky, one was to assist herself in sensing, and the other was to visually observe whether the fall direction of the hail was consistent with her expectations, if there was a large deviation, she would immediately cancel the ability, the smaller hail would melt and evaporate halfway after she canceled the ability, but the larger hail would still land, but the volume would be smaller.

And now she is holding a parasol, and she can't look up at the sky.

In fact, instead of looking up, she lowered her head slightly, staring intently at the ground, as if someone had dropped a hundred dollars on the lawn.

After a few seconds.

Before he could react, Friggia, who was grazing quite far away, raised her head vigilantly as if sensing something.

Immediately afterward, there was a sudden strong tremor under his feet, and his and Aurora's bodies shook at the same time, like a miniature earthquake in a flash.

Rumble!

He was stunned by the scene, more than a dozen clusters of sharp ice spikes actually broke through the ground and emerged from the ground like ice sculptures, one of which came out of the same place where he had stood before, if he hadn't left there, he would be ...... now

These ice spikes are crystal clear, and each cluster of ice spikes includes a few to a dozen ice spikes, and after burrowing out of the ground, the surrounding heat is replaced by a slight coolness.

"It's ...... Groundwater?" he asked in surprise.

"Well, groundwater, or an underground water supply network, you can. Aurora's face was filled with joy and he breathed a sigh of relief, "You know, after the water freezes, the volume will expand, the groundwater will be frozen and solidify into ice in a short period of time, and when the volume expands and there is nowhere to go, it can only expand in the direction of the weak strata - mostly in the direction of the surface, so it drills out of the ground, the principle is similar to that of a volcanic eruption." ”

Jiang Chanji vaguely guessed it, but after her complete explanation, there was still a sense of sudden enlightenment.

"So you chose this place for your experiments? There's more groundwater here?" he asked.

"This is one thing, and the other is that the school is located in a city, and the water level in the city has dropped so much that if I test it in the school, it will burst the school's underground water supply network, and then I'm afraid the whole school will have to stop drinking...... I don't want to be scolded. She explained.

Jiang Chanji looked down at his feet, "Where are we standing, there is no groundwater underground?"

"There should be, but my sense is relatively weak, probably because of the rocks, it feels like I am looking through frosted glass, you know what I mean? She stomped her foot slightly.

"Awesome! Congratulations on developing a new way to use your abilities, now you almost have no shortcomings! But far and near, heaven and earth, the teachers are probably going to be excited again. He genuinely complimented.

"It's still far from a short board. Aurora shook her head humbly, "It's not useful if you don't have plenty of water underground, and I can't control where the ice spikes come out, so they find their own path up with soft soil and thin strata." ”

"Just like Teacher Wang Yefei's ability to release the arc, the arc finds its own path of discharge in the air?" he realized.

"That's right, it's similar. She nodded.

"It's already very good, don't ask too much, it seems to me that this is more hidden than a hail rain, if the hail rain is a cannonball that falls with a 'whoosh-' warning, at least you can try to dodge to the side, the ice spike is like a hidden mine, and if you hear a 'click', it's over." ”

She smiled, feeling that his analogy was special.

"I'm not talking nonsense, the path of the ice spikes is random, you can't control it, and the enemy can't predict it. ”

She didn't dwell too much on this issue, because she had thought about it before the experiment, and knew that this flaw could not be remedied, and it was useless to dwell on it.

"By the way, what are you doing here? You must have been walking by while walking your horse?" she asked.

"Ahem! this ...... You know we're helping 33 with the disappearance of their overlord, right?" he said.

"Ah, I'm sorry, but after I came back from the forest, I felt how powerless I was in the face of a powerhouse of Lilith's level, so I kept my head buried in developing new ways to use my abilities, and didn't pay much attention to the outside world......" she explained embarrassedly.

So Jiang Chanji briefly told her what happened during this time.

"I see...... I'm so sorry, I should have helped......" She was even more embarrassed, it was rare to make some like-minded friends, but she made the same mistake herself, and after thinking of something new, she plunged into it.

"It's okay, you're also busy with business, and besides, the matter over there on the 33rd can't be solved by a lot of people. Jiang Chanji expressed his understanding, precisely because they all knew that Aurora was the kind of academic bully who was obsessed with research, so everyone tacitly did not bother her about the recent events.

Now it turns out that everyone's decision not to bother her was the right one, and the new way of using her abilities is a reward for her forgetting to sleep and eat.

"So things are not going well on the 33rd side, are they?" she asked with concern.

"Well, the main thing is that there is a Ninja 15 who is a headache for all of us. Jiang Chanji focused on the ability of No. 15.

"That sounds really powerful......," Aurora pondered, then shook her head regretfully, "It's a pity that the ice spike is more limited by the site, if it is in the city, it is only valid on the road through the underground water supply network, and if it is in a residence...... No way. ”

"Well, I know. Actually, I came to you because there was a ...... Her ability is not limited by the venue, and she can compete with No. 15 and Zhao Man to a certain extent. Jiang Chanji swallowed, "So I can only come to you to come forward." ”

"Who?" Aurora was stunned.

She quickly went through the transcendental people she knew in her mind, starting with her classmates and teachers at school, but if it was a classmate and teacher, he didn't need to ask her for help, it was better to talk to that classmate or teacher directly, and the others ......

Bing Xue was smart, and she quickly thought of that person according to the way No. 15 fought.

"Layla?" her face changed.

Jiang Chanji didn't speak, which was a tacit acquiescence.

Aurora's palm gently swirled the parasol and silently distracted for a moment.

Jiang Chanji and the others had never seen Layla's fighting style with their own eyes, and she had seen it more than once, as long as she didn't act rashly, she admitted that Layla's supersonic horsewhip was indeed the most fearless of the 15th of the people they knew.

Layla's horsewhip dances impermeable to the wind and water, and the shock wave generated when the whip breaks the sound barrier is like a full moon scimitar that comes out of his hand, and the explosion code can suppress the snap of the fingers in momentum, even if he can't win in the face of No. 15, at least he won't lose until he runs out of stamina.

"I can help you contact her, but would she be willing to help...... I can't guarantee that even if she does, it will probably come with harsh conditions. Aurora glanced at Frigga who was gnawing on the grass.

"Always try, she asks for a price, let's sit on the ground and pay back, if it doesn't work, let's think of another way. ”

Not to mention anything else, if Aurora can agree, it will already give him face.
