Chapter 71: The Three Deans Gather
If this is the end of the conflict in the Colosseum, then it will undoubtedly be a great game experience for Ronin. It's a pity that God didn't fulfill people's wishes, and as soon as he and Wendy walked out of the Colosseum gate, they were blocked by three unscrupulous guys.
"Stop!"
It was a bearded warrior with wavy black hair who spoke. The bearded man looked to be in his thirties, dressed in short silver armor, and carried two sharp swords crossed. When he saw Luo Ning's brother and sister walk out, his slightly dark face was full of anger, but there was a hint of surprise in his eyes, as if he didn't expect that it would be the young man in front of him who made a big noise.
"Calm down, Duncan, this little girl is a cadet at the Priesthood Academy, you should leave her at the disposal of Dean Winnie!"
Seeing the bearded man stretching his hand to the hilt of the sword behind his back, a bald mage beside him hurriedly persuaded. The mage Luo Ning looked at the eyes, but the white skin that could faintly see the blood vessels, and the slightly upturned triangular pointed ears were enough to convince Luo Ning that this mage had some elven blood.
The third young man had a typical oriental face, and his outfit was seven or eight points similar to the night clothes that Luo Ning had seen in his previous life. Unlike the previous two, he focused directly on the inside of the Colosseum.
"Don't you smell blood in the air, Duncan, and if I were you, I'd just knock this kid out and run in and see what he's done!"
The bearded man thought for a moment when he heard this, then slammed his feet on the ground, rushed to Luo Ning's side in an instant, and stopped his body in an instant. Luo Ning was just about to raise his sword to resist, but his wrist was firmly clamped by the other party and he couldn't move.
"Huh?"
At this moment, the bearded man saw the long sword in Luo Ning's hand burst into a cyan storm. He knew that something was wrong, and before the storm had spread, he slashed Luo Ning in the back of the neck with a knife and cut him down.
"Brother!" Wendy hugged Luo Ning, who fell to the ground, and looked at the three of them hatefully: "Who are you?
The bald mage looked at Wendy carefully, suddenly remembered something, and smiled, "You are the little girl that Winnie brought back, right? ”
"Don't move! don't come here!" Wendy raised her scepter at the bald priest, and the tip of the scepter suddenly shone brightly, and thirteen silver stars appeared in turn, connecting into a circle of silver light.
The three people on the other side were shocked at the same time, and the bald mage Solas was shocked by the divine aura generated by the light, and he almost lost his scepter.
The next moment, Solas felt a thin palm on his shoulder, and a somewhat teasing voice came from behind him: "Oh, this is really rare! Except for Murray, who has not returned, the remaining three branch deans have gathered together. Come on, I'm going to see what kind of monster can make you three so nervous. ”
Solas turned his head and saw a long-bearded old man in a blue cloth hat walking up to the front, the wrinkles on his face accentuated by the smile.
"Dean Flammel?!" Solas calmed down a lot of horror at the sight of the person who had felt the divine energy. He pointed to Wendy, who was not far away, and said to Flamel urgently: "Dean, this little girl is ...... her"
Flamel pressed Solas's arm, his round eyes widened, and then he smiled into two slits: "Well, this little girl is indeed very cute, and this hand is also very good for healing magic......"
"Healing magic?" Solas thought Flamel was dazzled, and said hurriedly, "Dean, how can there be thirteen silver stars in healing magic......?"
Flamel interrupted Solas, approached Wendy's confused but stubborn gaze, and said with a smile, "Her brother did violate the house rules, but this little girl is innocent, you three don't continue to embarrass her!" Before the words could be finished, Flamel stretched out his thin fingers and slowly grasped the thirteen silver stars that lingered around the scepter.
One of the stars —— suddenly fell with a flaming glow, embedded in the scepter's surface through Flamel's fingers. Immediately followed by the second, the third... In a short time, all thirteen stars were darkened, turning into a silver streak imprinted on the top of the scepter. The divine aura that filled the air was suddenly swept away, and Wendy sat down on the ground as if she had been drained of her strength.
"You—" Wendy didn't know what the other party meant, but felt a wave of exhaustion hit her. She finally glanced up at Flamel, and then she could no longer hold it back, and snuggled up to each other with Ronin and fell into a deep sleep.
The three vice presidents looked at the sleeping brother and sister, thinking of Flamel's actions just now, and they didn't dare to ask any more questions.
Flamel saw the expressions of the three of them who wanted to stop talking, sat down on the stone pier near the gate of the Colosseum, and said slowly: "In the more than a thousand years since the establishment of the Morrowind Kingdom, hundreds of colleges of different sizes have sprung up. But we are the only ones who have been standing. Do you know why?"
The three of them, you look at me, I look at you, different thoughts flashed in their hearts, but they quickly denied it, and finally shook their heads at the same time.
Flamel smiled, "When I was younger, I was asked by the former dean to go to sea. When I passed through Dongxian Island, the famous sage Zhang Da on the island got a proverb from his mouth that is worth remembering for a lifetime!"
Flamel raised his head, his eyes sinking into memory: "At that time, the old king had not yet ascended the throne, and the Morrowind Kingdom was in the most turbulent period in a hundred years. As the largest academy in the kingdom, Morrowind Academy has become a thorn in the side of others! Although I am far away on Dongxian Island, I have always been concerned about the affairs of the academy in my heart, and I am worried that the Morrowind Academy entrusted by the old dean will be destroyed in the hands of me, a hairy boy! Before I could speak, the great sage saw my thoughts and said to me an ancient proverb from Dongxian Island--the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it!"
If Ronin was still awake, he would have been taken aback by this. Because not only is the content of these words exactly the same as what he had heard in his previous life, but even Flamel's pronunciation is Mandarin with some northern accents!
Flamel explained the meaning of the sentence to the three of them in Continental, and then continued, "The reason why Morrowind Academy is being targeted is because we are too powerful and cause fear among others! Some of them left the academy and went to the Frost Dragon Mountains to guard the continent, while some of them set up their own portals in the Endless Strait to establish a new foundation. I and the rest of the people stayed in the royal capital to meet the wrath and troubles of the forces on all sides! At the darkest hour, there were only seven people left in the entire Morrowind Academy, including me!"
The three vice deans gasped: "The last seven?!" You must know that the Chenfeng Academy is divided into five grades, and there are as many as five hundred students in the school alone. From this point of view, Morrowind Academy was on the verge of destruction at that time.
"No wonder!" the bearded Duncan suddenly said: "No wonder the dean does not allow anyone in the academy to seek benefits in the name of the academy, nor does he allow us to participate in any kind of competition elsewhere!
Flamel turned his head to look at the door, got up and patted his clothes: "Okay, I've had enough of this old man." I just want the three of you to remember: for the sake of your college, don't tell anyone about this little girl's secret! Duncan..."
The bearded warrior bowed his head: "Although the child of the Reinhardt family is a man, he is not a wicked person. He was seriously injured by this kid today, and he may not be able to cross this hurdle in his heart. You'll have to worry about it!"
"Jing Lie!"
The black-haired assassin stepped forward.
"This kid violated three house rules in a row today. You are in charge of the Academy's discipline and guard, and the punishment for him will be carried out by you!"
With that, he leaned into Jing Lie's ear and whispered a few words to him. When the latter heard this, his face suddenly became strange.
