Chapter 122: Advanced Survival (7)
Wherever we look, the islands sink one after another. However, in a vast expanse of sea, a huge island rises like a king protected by soldiers, surrounded by a total of six islands. They still seem to be rising, but we can already see how they are composed: overlooking, two up and down, four on the left and right, connected in an apparently jewel-like hexagon, and the point where the three lines connected by the two points intersect is the island that looks like an ancient ruin.
"By the way, that's the ancient ruins, right?" I asked, pointing to the buildings on the island.
"Whatever it is, the most important thing now is to get our companions out. "The boy I thought was the captain was so anxious that I was worried about the danger of our two companions, or the girls on their side.
"I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. The leaders on both sides said in unison, which was somewhat interesting.
"Although there are few enemies and we have many enemies, we should not underestimate our strength in accurately finding our opponents in the dense fog and capturing them. Yu Jingjing pondered. She doesn't know that our ally, Richard Lange, is hiding something from us.
"Recklessly moving forward often ends up in a tragic end. In the case that the other party has already named, our rash actions will make the other party tear up the ticket, so it is better to let Senior Xiao Hui go to rescue them alone as they said. β
"No," Yu Jingjing loudly rejected Richard's proposal, "It's just Xiao Hui alone, it's too risky." β
"Student representative, don't you know that our senior Xiao Hui is the owner of the Supreme Treasure Crystal of our Academy?, or do you not believe in his strength and think that he will inevitably die if he goes alone?" Richard asked knowingly.
"I'll go with Xiao Hui. "Yu Jingjing and Richard are arguing.
"No, I can't. Senior sister, you also said that the other party named Senior Xiao Hui to go, and there was no additional regulation that other people could also go. If you provoke the other party, it is not only your companions who will suffer, but also our delicate girl. Even if you bear with it, we firmly disagree. β
At Richard's instigation, the boys in their squad chimed in and demanded that Xiao Hui rescue the hostages alone.
It's not that Richard doesn't know Xiao Hui's strength, he deliberately makes things difficult for Xiao Hui, intending to embarrass him. I reckon that Richard was also jealous of Xiao Hui, who owned the Dalai Crystal.
Alex stopped talking. I guessed what he wanted to say, so I told the young and vigorous children bluntly: "Xiao Hui is a class 1 magician. You all know the concept of class. If Xiao Hui is left alone to save your companions, do you think it will be successful?"
The first-year boys were silent.
Before Richard uttered any boring sarcasm, I remembered something and said to the crowd, "Time is running out, and if we waste a second here, our opponents will be more suspicious, and in the end they will decide that we don't want to sacrifice all the people of the Dalai Crystal and take the hostage's health." Here, I have an idea......"
After some time.
"Since the other party only named Xiao Hui to go, we won't follow. However, the most basic precautions must always be taken. Thanks to our classmate Ma Chao for bringing the magic tools for the battle, the battle recorder - Ma Chao, needless to say, I know that you are not stingy, but will voluntarily donate in order to save our dear classmates. With everyone's encouragement, our senior Xiao Hui will go to the banquet alone. Xiao Hui, you must come on. β
"It sounds weird, but I'll do it. Just ......"
"You don't have to worry about lack of strength, just make sure where they are, and then we will rush to your side like an arrow, and we will never let you fight alone. β
"Hmm. β
We watched our companions leave, hesitated for a moment on the island, and then entered the ruins of rock and soil.
"Hui, don't be reckless, take care. β
Richard laughed and said to me: "Yi Jia and seniors, you can try to be an actor, maybe you can win some awards and become a world-famous figure." β
"I'm just an extras with poor acting skills, how can I compare to some famous film and television stars. "Mom and Dad often used the third person to taunt me as a second person, and as their son, I "inherited my father's business" and mocked Richard in this disgusting way.
It's boring to wait for our companions to hear from us when we are watching for possible opponents around us, but the battle recorder can tell us what's going on inside the ruins through video.
The Medium Magic Combat Recorder has three parts, one is a transmitter carried by the combat stormtrooper, one is a camera for the combat record, and one is a receiver for the personnel behind the battle to watch the record. The transmitter is a small sticker that can be attached to the skin, the camera is a group of one-centimeter-tall mechanical villains, and the receiver is a pair of glasses. The battle recorder is sold by the magic equipment shop for 500 sock coins. However, in a way it is a one-time magic device.
"Whew, my five hundred dollars ......"
I asked Ma Chao: "A sticker, five villains, and a pair of glasses, can't these be operated like replacing parts when the machine parts are damaged instead of replacing the entire machine?"
"The Magic Shop doesn't sell parts for battle recorders, it's sold in three-in-one. Woo, my five hundred dollars ......"
"Don't make a fuss, it's a big deal that I'll return the soul binding order of the same price to you......"
Before the words fell, Ma Chao stretched out his hand to me: "A gentleman's word, the horse is difficult to chase." β
"I'm not a gentleman. β
Ma Chao and I stared at each other with loveless eyes, and Ma Chao, who was defeated, turned around and chattered again.
"Alright. Now, here you go. "It's really interesting to play tricks on the little devil, and it's even more fun to play tricks on Scrooge.
After accepting the soul binding order, Ma Chao asked me hypocritically, "Don't you use it?"
I'd love to see how he would respond when I said, "Use it, give me back," mostly "What you give me is mine" or "This is what I am," like a child's words.
"You need the Soul Binding Order more than I do. What a clever answer.
"That's right. "Bastard, there's no gratitude at all.
After a moment of silence, Ma Chao said to me: "Yi Jiahe, when the advanced exam is over, I will take you outside to play; β
The sun came out in the west, and Scrooge Ma Chao was willing to spend money for me?
"Of course, the premise is that I can pass the advanced exam. And we have to spend as much as I can afford to spend. β
Big brother, do you need to be so calculating?
"Spot the opponent. Following...... Cut, it turns out that they are leading the king into the urn. The passages in the ruins are closed, they can't get out, we can't get in. β
"What then?" shouted the first-grader boy.
"I can only pray that she can fight five with one ...... No, it's six - and one is hiding in the shadows...... Oops, he's found the camera villain!"
Yu Jingjing took off her glasses and said to us, "The situation inside is not good, we have to make a decision immediately." β
The boys in the first year are ready to go, and the third year is a bit apprehensive.
"Senior sister, give me the receiver. Richard stretched out his hand.
Richard, who wears another pair of glasses, is playing back the record. Can he see clearly?
"Sure enough, it was him. This guy really loves to get into trouble. β
Yu Jingjing asked Richard, "Do you know that person?"
This time Richard didn't mean to hide it, and replied: "The others don't know very well, but I know the person we are probing, and I know him, even if he is my hair small, he is also my opponent." β
"Your hair is small, could it be that the other party is from the Lange family?"
Richard put on his glasses and said to me, "That's right, he's Hogg Lange of our family." β
"How does his strength compare to you?"
"Better than me. β
"Modesty or fact?" I suspect that Richard, who has a soul contract, is deliberately trying to confuse me.
"Just as you are Yi Jiahe and I am Richard. The roundabout answer told me that what he said was true.
People say that one sentence in one mouth, a hundred sentences and thousands of sentences urge people to be stupid. It is difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood. I wouldn't trust Richard easily.
"Think I'm lying?"
Unexpectedly, but I still calmly replied, "No." β
"With a strong enemy in front of me, I have no need to hide my strength. Could it be that you still wish I could surprise you?"
Yu Jingjing spoke: "I don't care who is strong or weak. Since those dead children are going to play yin, we will destroy the entire ruins and leave them with nowhere to hide!"
Domineering side leakage. But Jingjing, I would like to remind you that everyone has a responsibility to protect cultural relics.
"Hogg Lange has discovered my presence, needless to say the Elder's granddaughter, our dear Miss Katrina Lange. Perhaps, he targeted the elder's granddaughter to carry out this abduction operation, and Senior Xiao Hui was just a disguise. β
I was shocked.
"That's right," Richard said to me with a wicked grin, "and he expected our response, knowing that you would have the Elder's granddaughter use magic to transform into Senior Xiao Hui to save the two of them instead of him." β
"This, how is this possible," Xiao Hui was more shocked than me, "Isn't he worried that I will really pass?"
"The senior is just a first-class magician, even if you have a Dalai crystal, isn't it still useless?"
Richard's taunt made our Class 10 classmates angry. When Richard noticed that Yu Jingjing's face was wrong, he immediately said, "In the video of the battle record, Hogg has already sent a message of intent. Even though there was no sound, you could tell what he meant by lips. I know that the person who came was the granddaughter of the elder of the family. I'll fight her out, don't interfere,' that's what he said. β
"Richard, how strong is Hogg?" I asked.
"Hmm...... Class 3 is there. Don't look at us as first-year students, not even the wizard class. The so-called man cannot be disguised, and the sea cannot be measured......"
"Jingjing, let's go save them. "Interrupting Richard Van's crepe words, I said to the master of the class five.
"Guys, come on. Yu Jingjing turned around and said to Richard, "Come or not, whatever you want." β
The first-year boys were still anxiously awaiting the captain's reply, while we flew to the island ruins with Yu Jingjing and Ma Chaofeng's magic.
Away from Richard, I heard him laugh and say, "Hehe, 'I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry'." As a student representative who should look at the battle situation calmly, senior sister, you are not qualified. But ......"
I glanced back at Richard. He didn't make a move, floated in the air to make eye contact with me, and smiled confidently.
The entrance to the cave of the island ruins was unsealed, and I was disappointed when I stepped inside. Isn't it because of the indecipherable writing, vivid murals, bizarre statues, and dilapidated utensils that ancient buildings such as ruins are considered cultural heritage by humans, but there is nothing here but a spacious cave.
Without giving up, I followed Yu Jingjing as the second pioneer, and it was not until I came to the mouth of the blocked passage that I gave up exploring the ruins of this emerging island with a keen interest.
"Charlie, thank you. "The Class Second Fire Magician, who has been silently illuminating us, is my role model.
"You're welcome. β
If I can burn the flames, I will also light the way forward for everyone like Charlie. However, Charlie's flames would burn through my own clothes and pants, and mine would not be able to burn through the surface of my body without exposing my skin. If our flames fuse together and become a special flame that burns without damaging our clothes and pants and healing others, we will definitely win the Rhett Elemental Magic Award or the Blue Magic Technology Award in the wizarding world. Although I don't know if there is such an award, it is not bad to be whimsical once in a while.
"You're finally here. β
A familiar voice came from the darkness. Catrina, who was supposed to be trapped in the center of the ruins, appeared unharmed.
"You, how?" Alex asked in surprise.
"Inside is my soul contractor, and standing before you is the real Katrina Lange. β
"Yi Jiahe, didn't you say that you didn't see Katrina on the day of the class reunion. That's what she used. Lilith, the freckled girl, laughed.
According to Katrina, before arriving at the ruins, she had her soul contractor check her surroundings to make sure there was no opponent, and then handed over the battle recorder we had given her magical creatures, and then magically transformed her soul contractor into her form and let her enter the cave to make an appointment.
"The blockade was unexpected for me. However, I have instructed the mirror to keep an eye on the words and pictures on the walls of the ruins as you move forward, and I believe you have seen it through the receiver. β
As Catrina spoke, I took out the Magical Bioelectronic Illustrated Book to search for information about the Flower in the Mirror: "The Flower in the Mirror, a magical creature with a star five ice attributes. A frame made of ice crystals is embedded in a clear ice flake in which a man's or woman's mirror can be seen. The body of the flower in the mirror is not a mirror, but a person in the mirror. It is also a recognized name for the flower generation. The sex of the flower in the mirror is usually determined by the sex of the person in the mirror. Commonly used skills - Ice Sky Man Dance, special move - Frozen Perma. β
"Another man with a soul contractor. Ma Chao sighed.
"Don't be discouraged, you'll come across it eventuallyβnow is not the time to talk about it. I asked Yu Jingjing, "As Katrina said, did her Soul Contractor Mirror send information about the ruins?"
"Yes," Yu Jingjing handed us the glasses, "Whoever can understand, translate." β
The crowd was dumbfounded, and no one took over.
"If it's about the history of the wizarding world, I can try it. Jin Yingying took over, and after replaying the record, she shook her head and said that it could not be cracked.
"The ancient ruins that are going to die, the entrance of the cave does not give information, but what ancient murals are arranged behind this stone gate, this is not a trick on people. I complained.
"Yi Jiahe, do you want to try to decipher?"
"Me?" I couldn't refuse, so I had to pretend to agree, and then honestly say no, "What the hell, click a little bit? Heh, it's not Morse code, what kind of code to play." β
"Morse code, Yi Jiahe, give me the receiver. β
I handed Alex the glasses I had taken off, and I saw that he had a serious expression, as if he was really deciphering the ancient text.
"This is an ancient ruin, how could Morse code appear, and it is not man-made......" I gave myself a hint in a flash of inspiration.
"The Four Spaces were created by the main force of magic technicians, and it is reasonable that there are human creations in the ruins of the islands located in the water and soil space. β
After Yu Jingjing finished speaking, the black classmate had already interpreted the message sent to us by the flower in the mirror: "The gate of one, the water gate." Water magic breaks it. β
"Hui ...... I'll do it anyway. Lilith unleashed water magic to break through the stone door.
"What would happen if you used other magic to break down the door?"
Ma Chao said to Wilson angrily: "You can try." β
"The gate of two, the gate of water and soil. The magic of water and earth combined to break it. β
Wilson confidently came to the stone gate and sneered at Ma Chao: "Those who don't know water magic can stay on the side and stand by." β
He unleashed water magic, and the stone gate was not broken.
"Haha, the water magician who thought he could break the door ......"
"Ma Chao!" Yu Jingjing stepped behind Ma Chao and smashed the flying rocks with a bamboo stick.
Seemingly out of a sense of crisis, Wilson immediately turned around to check if there was anything unusual in the stone gate, and quickly fell to the ground when he found that water beads began to gather on the stone gate. Water droplets emitted, and the hit was either dead or wounded.
"Wilson......" Ma Chao gritted his teeth.
"It's not my fault. If you want to blame the magician who created this ruin, why should I do it? Wilson showed no signs of introspection.
"Time is of the essence, I don't know what happens to Josh and the girl and Katrina's magical creatures, we can't afford to rub around here. Yu Jingjing took out a Soul Binding Order to free the magical creature and said to the water magician, "Lilith, you and the stone demon work together to launch a magic spell to break through the stone gate. How, do you have the confidence to cooperate with the stone demons to complete the mission?"
Lilith smiled playfully and said, "Although Brother Stone Demon moves slowly, it's just a piece of cake. β
The freckled girl didn't break her promise, and she teamed up with magical creatures to break through the two gates.
Moving on, we come to the Three Gates.
"The Three Gates require two fire mages and two water mages to work together to strike the door. β
You've forgotten about me as a fire mage in the corner. It doesn't matter, I put up with it for the sake of the agreement, and I can't let people say that I'm a man who doesn't keep his promises.
Since the magic of the magical creature can pass, the fire magic launched by Ma Chao with the sealing talisman can be achieved. However, due to the wrong timing between him and Charlie, the mechanism was triggered, and we were attacked by a wave of "fire and water". Bad luck like me - my clothes burned and I rolled on the ground in fright.
They didn't laugh at my incompetence, they just looked at me with strange eyes, and they made me uncomfortable.
"Aren't you a fire magician?" Wilson's next sentence I can guess, "why are you still afraid of fire?"
I couldn't find a suitable reason for this, so I had to be silent.
Through the Gate of Water, Fire and Earth, we come to the Fifth Gate. According to the image sent to us by the flower in the mirror, the opposite side of this stone gate is a direct passage to the opponent's location.
"Alex, what's going on?" and without mentioning why the black classmate had Morse code, I asked him for information on the wall.
"No, I can't read it. Alex replied, "There are no rules to follow, maybe it's a prank by the founder." β
Yu Jingjing turned to the other wall and said, "Then, the clue to the breakthrough of this fifth gate is probably in the mural on this wall." β
The content of the mural is very clear, it is a magician standing in front of the stone gate to perform snowflake magic on the stone gate, and there is no other key point.
"This snowflake pattern refers to ice magic, right?" asked Kojiro.
"But who among us knows ice magic?"
After Ma Chao finished speaking, everyone turned to Yu Jingjing.
"I know a thing or two about light magic, but I'm not good at ice magic. Yu Jingjing said, and the boys hung their heads.
Looking at Katrina carefully examining the mural, I had a question: "Katrina, speaking of which, you haven't introduced me to your spirit base element type yet. Is it gold magic?"
Cause snowflakes with the alchemy of gold magic - daydreaming.
"Head of dormitory. β
Yu Jingjing nodded: "Go ahead." β
Unbelievable, but I could almost be sure what kind of elemental mage she was when I saw Katrina's demeanor.
"Cold ice, with me. "Don't forget the latest chapter of the "Don't Forget the Blessing and Claw Book House of the Past in the Past" is free to read for the first time.
