Chapter 38: The Mission Continues
When the massive stone statue's chest, the core of the guiding force that symbolized normal functioning, began to make an irregular noise, Helliga and Chloe knew the time had come. The two glanced at each other and unleashed the final blow in unison.
Chloe pulled out his previous jamming magazine and quickly replaced it with the black magazine pinned to the innermost part of his pants, which was a high-explosive bullet with great destructive power. Without hesitation, Chloe fired all six bullets from the two shuttles, striking head-on at several joints of the Colossus and at unstable points of gravity. After a burst of explosions, the glittering core circuit of the conductive force was clearly visible.
"It doesn't seem to be as complicated as Liberal's magic weapon." At first glance, the exposed conduction circuit is not as complex as Fantasia, but rather a much simpler structure. However, the current situation was not for Heliga to observe carefully, and besides, he had no interest in these things related to the channel, and there was no need to understand them.
The cold crack was inserted into the exposed core. He watched with satisfaction as the statue ceased to function for a moment. Crashed to the ground, and there was no movement.
"Are you alright?" As the saying goes, reinforcements always come at the right time, and Heliga and Chloe have just teamed up to knock down this huge stone statue, and the guide elevator that everyone had no time to take care of just now quietly completed a move up and down, and the elevator is naturally the remaining members of Class II, including several instructors and seniors that Heliga has seen before.
The chubby, somewhat dirty mechanic boy was probably Senior George Nome, the master of the technical building they mentioned. The reason why Heliga had never met him was because he himself didn't need any channeling-related supplies, and Arus only had a communication function in Heliga's hands. Except for the production-ready core circuits that were assigned to him, the slots for the seven conduction circuits had been empty all along.
And the handsome motorcycle suit beside him, which looks quite unique in this generally conservative and traditional school, should be Angelica mentioned by Chloe in the previous small talk, Heiliga thought so.
"Whew...... Of course, something's wrong, I'm almost exhausted. Maybe it was because Chloe didn't have to worry about the big guy not dying anymore after the rescuers came, and his tone relaxed a lot, "What about Rien?" ”
"I don't know...... What just happened? Jusis asked curiously, "Where is he gasping for breath......
"Has it changed back?" During the battle just now, Heliga quietly glanced at Rien's side, and found that the latter had faded from the strange appearance he had just seen and returned to normal.
"What the hell is going on here?" Most people are in a state of confusion.
"And this kind of thing?" After a period of scramble, under Tova's command, all the aftermath began to be carried out in an orderly manner. Senior George and Instructor Makarov, who rushed to hear the news, set up a simple temporary research room underneath, and began to analyze the ancient weapons that had completely lost their function, but after all, it was an ancient thing, and no one was sure if it would suddenly recover. However, Instructor Makarov is actually a very well-hidden wand master, so there should be no need to worry about safety issues if he is there.
A weakened Rien and a comatose Elysie were taken to the infirmary to be treated by Instructor Beatrice, and as Helliga had expected, Elysée was unharmed. However, considering that it was late today, and that she was indeed overly frightened and physically and mentally exhausted, even though Elysée managed to wake up soon after, everyone decided to leave her to spend the night in the school, to be exact, the third student dormitory of Class II. In terms of specific contact, the head of Van Dyck will explain to the women's college that after all, the rules of the women's college are very strict, and without the president's guarantee, I really can't tell what kind of punishment Elysée will receive when she returns.
Patrick's actions reversed his impression in the hearts of everyone in Class II, and in a burst of sincere or joking praise, the noble brother who had always been arrogant finally showed his normal side, and casually found an excuse to slip away, obviously embarrassed.
"I introduced you to it because I thought it might be a good place to exercise." After the head of the Van Dyck House and the head of the women's college reached an agreement through the guide communicator, Instructor Sarah pouted, "But the anomalous incident that happened this time is really ...... Beyond common sense. I really can't allow you to look into it anymore. What about the Dean's opinion? ”
"I'm against it." Laura was the first to stand up and express her opinion, "It's a very good place to practice, suitable for maintaining the feeling of actual combat and the tacit understanding of the team. ”
"If you're not sure, you can come with me every time...... That would have been your job anyway. Jussis said.
"I agree with that...... And the tactical link can be used flexibly, also thanks to the actual combat there. Alyssa came up with a more convincing reason.
"And since it's all like this, everyone wants to solve this puzzle even more......" Macchias also objected.
"Hmm...... It seems that the students are not scared at all. The head of Van Dyck smiled, "Being responsible is a good thing for young people...... Moreover, although it was weird, the operation did not cause too many casualties. Since they still insist......"
“…… All right. The brows jumped slightly, and Instructor Sarah finally relented, "It's just that what happens in the future must be reported to us in time, and when there is danger, you must withdraw in time." ”
"......," Emma remained silent. I don't know when it began, a hint of annoyance flashed in her eyes from time to time.
It must have something to do with the black cat that could talk. Heliga thought to himself.
According to Rossy, the witch clan and what they have seen and heard during this time......
“…… Let's just have a showdown with her. ”
It was late at night.
The boys took care of Rien, the girls took care of Elyse, and after they were done, everyone was able to end a somewhat chaotic day.
Towards midnight, the last light went out. All the houses in Torista were plunged into a deep darkness.
The same is true for third-student dormitories. However, in the small room in the middle of nowhere, Helliga did not sleep, but waited quietly for the moment as she flipped through some of the manuscripts that Nirevain had left behind.
If you're expecting it to be good.
"It's too much......!"
"Hmph...... Sure enough. Heliga smiled.
