On the first day of February, Shinji returned to London and returned to the station of the Clone Brigade.

Japan has a New Year's holiday, and Western countries also have a long holiday between Christmas and New Year, which can range from a week to a month depending on local regulations and policies.

Therefore, Shinji simply gave the members of the Clone brigade a year-end vacation, and those who should go home should go home, and those who should rest. No matter what the outside world thinks, Shinji always thinks that magicians are also human beings, and he also has relatives and friends, and he doesn't want the Clone team to really become cold machines.

Surprisingly, the date of return was February 1, but all the members of the team except Shinji returned to the station before February and spontaneously carried out daily training.

When the "Grim Reaper" stepped into the underground training ground with the snake-hunting scythe, the brilliance of various magic tricks was like fireworks, dyeing the entire training ground in a colorful color, and it looked spectacular.

"It's so intense before the holiday is over, are these guys fighting chicken blood?"

The larger the scale of the magic, the greater the movement, the entire training ground is filled with magic brilliance, conservatively estimated that at least double-digit members use high-level magic, maybe there are big magic, this is a trump card that every magician will not use easily, no wonder Shinji has such a sigh.

The life force greatly strengthened by the golden apple is transformed into magic power through a magic circuit, and then changes its nature through the Buddha bone relics in the left hand, and finally radiates to the whole body.

In a single breath, Shinji's attributes doubled - not the magic of physical strengthening, but the wonderful use of the newly realized Buddha bone relics.

After fighting Liz Baifei, Shinji figured out how to use some of the relics, and now he is using the simplest one, which has a similar effect to strengthening magic. Although the magnitude of the increase is not as powerful as that of the "Golden Body Status", it is relatively easy to control and the side effects are relatively small.

If there is any regret, it is probably that after that power competition, Shinji has never entered that magical "golden body state" again. However, he was not in a hurry, since he had already found his way, sooner or later he would tap out the full power of the relics.

Feeling the new power contained in his body, Shinji smiled contentedly, "Seeing that you guys are having so much fun, should I also intervene?" After all, the battlefield is always full of accidents. ”

The light distorted, and soon, Shinji's figure disappeared into the air like a drop of ink dripping into a water tank.

◇◇◇

On the west side of the underground training ground is an artificially constructed bunker area, with three-digit bunkers built on rocky ground in square kilometers. There is a large-scale ritual magic under the bunker group, and every once in a while, the structure of the bunker group changes, and even magicians who specialize in earth magic dare not say that they can figure out the structure of the bunker in a short time.

A few minutes ago, the structure of the bunker group had just been changed, which was a pain for the "Sword" team and the "Holy Grail" team.

The two squads that are best at positional warfare are fighting fiercely, but they didn't expect the terrain to change abruptly, and the formation was completely disrupted, and a few unlucky guys also fell into the newly generated cover and lost contact with their teammates.

In an artificial cave about 500 meters from the point where the two teams exchanged fire, two men looked at each other and smiled.

The relatively young one smiled very presumptuously and did not hide his cheerful mood.

The older ones are very gentle. Of course, this mildness is only superficial, and everyone in the team knows that as long as this one person shows such an expression, someone will definitely be unlucky.

"The 'Pope' guy still wants to calculate us, doesn't he want to think that we are so calculating? ”

"So, young man, it's still inexperienced. ”

Who are they? They are the Adjutant of the Clone Brigade "Chariot" and the Inspector "Trial", and they are second only to Shinji in status and strength in the Brigade.

It was they who initiated this large-scale combat brawl activity. Moreover, in order to stir up everyone's enthusiasm, the two oldest members of the Clone Brigade went down in person.

The idea of militarizing the Clone Brigade was originally proposed by the two of them, and you can imagine how strict the two were in peacetime. Although the strict training and style of work have made the cohesion and combat effectiveness of the brigade rapidly improved, it has also allowed the arrogant team members to accumulate a lot of resentment.

Of course, the two have no intention of sitting still. They can be defeated, but they must make enough gains before they fall, and the prestige of the adjutant and the military judge must not be compromised.

"It's almost time for the outside to settle down. "Judgment" holds the wall with one hand and twists the well-maintained mustache with the other.

"Fifteen seconds to go. "Chariot" retracted his smile and returned to a expressionless face, which meant that he was completely in combat mode. As a brilliant magician, as the designer of the bunkers, no one knows this place better than him.

"Go, it's time for the young people to know that it's awesome. ”

"Especially the little ones who are new to the game. ”

The new additions refer to the new members who were recruited after Shinji took over. The battle of hunting the Dead Apostles in the fall of '98 gave the Clone team a lot of fame, and the number of applications to join the team also increased.

After some review and trials, eight outstanding young people were selected, and the members of the Clone team also changed from twenty-five when Shinji joined to thirty-two (Loreleia temporarily withdrew from the team).

Newcomers, there will always be some people who don't know the sky, and it is the duty of the old people to let them recognize the reality.

"By the way, 'Judgment', do you want to win more than anyone else?"

"That's why I've been idle in the past few months since the captain left. ”

"Me too, so let's get started. ”

After saying that, the two rushed out of the cave at the same time.

And then - they flew back at a faster speed - it was really flying, flying upside down.

A dark shadow stopped at the entrance of the cave, holding a simple-looking scythe in his hand.

"Yo, you two, long time no see, where are you going? ”

"Great, Captain——!"

"You're back. ”

"Yes, I just came across such an interesting event, so I mixed it in - to be on the safe side, there is no limit to the number of people in this event. ”

"Chariot" and "Trial" shook their heads in unison.

"Then I'm relieved. The scythe blade slowly raised, and the atmosphere in the cave suddenly became solemn, "Let's start with the two of you." ”

The feeling of pressure and tingling from the ends of the nerve and magic circuits told the two that their captain was not joking.

If you don't want to fall here, you have to give it your all, so that you may have a chance to win - use the results of this special training.

With just one look, the pair of old comrades-in-arms who have known each other for many years understood each other's thoughts.

In the next second, Shinji felt two unprecedented waves of magic fluctuations.

"I see, shouldn't you be impressed in three days? But you're not the only ones who have grown. ”

Still rising in the midst of the mana fluctuations, Shinji raised his left palm.

On the left arm of King Kong, the Buddha's light overflows.

This is Shinji's biggest gain during the holidays.
