Chapter 121: Advanced Survival (6)
The archipelago in the water, land and space is gradually disappearing, and a huge vortex appears around it. If someone chooses to tread water and leave the island, I can only pray that he will be safe. Above this spectacular scene is a chaotic mage showdown, and more than thirty people have to fight to the death for a broken damage ranking. What's even more interesting is that this rather good performance has attracted a lot of nosy people, and they don't feel like messy when they force themselves on stage.
A rough count shows that the number of combatants has exceeded forty. Of these, my companions accounted for one-third. In fact, I feel like one of them can resist ten, after all, the term "Student Representative of the Fifth Class" is not for nothing in the Academy of Magic.
"At the moment of the great enemy, when there are enough people, capture the thief and capture the king first. The influence of the senior sister is too great. β
Wearing glasses does not mean that you are a cultural person, but a person who speaks clearly and has something to say, and a person who speaks a little dullly is confused, and nine times out of ten he is a cultural person. What can you do, he just reads poetry and books with connotation. Having said that, cultural people are not terrible, they are either on paper or pretentious. However, powerful cultural people are quite amazing, such as the guy next to me, Richard Lange, who you think is a cultural person whose abilities are exposed, but in fact he is still deeply hidden.
"Yi Jia and seniors, help me spread the word that The Shining is coming. β
Richard wasn't talking about the movie, but about the weird "creatures" floating behind me.
"Guys, the Shining is coming!"
My loud shouts drew the attention of the weak, and this time they attacked us with ranged magic.
"It's over. "I couldn't laugh or cry.
One thing I admire is that Richard is always confident in any situation: "With my soul contractor here, we won't be finished." β
What Richard said was true.
Faced with the speeding elemental birds, I couldn't summon the ghost of the soul contractor, and I wanted to find a hole to get into, although there was no hole in the air. Dear Xiao Hui lived up to his expectations and took out the binding line with lightning speed, or maybe this is because the function of the combat suit is originally set to push it as long as the user wants to use some kind of magic equipment. Sadly, the ball of thread thrown by the old classmate was burned by a flame of the red elemental bird before it could get out of the line. Helplessly, in this situation, I can only stand up and be honored.
"It's really breathtaking for the two seniors to sing and harmonize. "I knew Richard was talking the opposite, but I couldn't bear to play tricks on him when he was sweating profusely.
"Don't worry, I'll protect you. "Probably not. I still have to say handsome words, at least I can make people pity me who failed the exam, maybe I can eat a hearty and delicious meal, or get a rare high-level magic equipment.
"Are you coming? β
"It's coming. β
"The voice of the conjuring. β
"Huh?"
For a moment, the air seemed to drop to freezing. Such a dramatic change was unusual, and I immediately looked around. When I remembered that I was about to be attacked and looked back at the Elemental Bird flying in, it appeared out of thin air.
With a white wedding dress and a moving back, why is the woman who is supposed to enter the marriage hall suspended in the air? I have two guesses, one of which is correct. Noticing its anomaly began when I saw its crumpled skin that was burned and damaged by a loss of fit for itself. Like a puddle of black stains on a white coat, its bare feet give me such a feeling. I should have thought long ago that it was not an ordinary human beingβit was not human.
The gentle singing is the sound of heaven. The moment I heard the voice, I fell into a strange feeling, in a trance, delirious.
"Senior, I specifically asked her to cast a magic that won't work on humans, so you'll still be tricked, it's too weak. β
Richard's taunts woke me up. I leaned forward to look at Xiao Hui, who had also fallen for illusion.
"Did I fall for illusion?" asked Xiao Hui, who was still a little confused, under my awakening.
"It's not illusion, it's magic that interferes with hearing. β
I said to Richard, "Aren't we just because our hearing is disturbed? β
The man with glasses was silent.
"Ah, the elemental bird is gone. β
As Xiao Hui said, we only see a woman in a wedding dress, and the elemental bird is nowhere to be seen.
"Transferring with a singing voice, what kind of magic is this?"
I distinctly heard Richard sigh, "It's not transfer magic. The Elemental Bird must have fallen because it was disturbed and could not keep its balance. β
Looking down, I saw the elemental birds falling.
"Hey, if they fall into the whirlpool, they're dead, there's no need to kill them all, right?" I turned to Richard.
"The conjuring sounds stop, and they return to normal. If they are not awake because they are sluggish, it can only be said that this is their fate. β
Richard persuaded me, but Xiao Hui didn't agree: "They are also life, how can we watch them fall into the vortex and die?"
After a short silence, Richard said, "Senior, if you have the ability, go and save them, and I will lift the wind magic that was cast on you." However, even if you can wind magic, it's too late to save it now. As I said, that's their fate. β
"Fate and all that are nonsense, you're just stalling for time and don't want me to save them. If you really want to save them, even if you can't leave yourself, you can ask this person who is doing your bidding to save them. Xiao Hui said angrily.
"We are not obligated to save others, let alone magical creatures. Richard's expression was grim and unforgiving.
Sensing my gaze, his expression softened, and he said to Xiao Hui, "Senior, you are a celebrity who has obtained the Dalai Crystal, and it is easy to get rid of my magic to save the elemental bird. I'm just a first-year student, and I'm powerless to keep both of us from falling, and to deal with your demands. You're overestimating me. β
"I'm super overestimating you. "Try to be a cultural person to say the inside and the inside, but it seems to be a straightforward statement in every way.
Looking down at the elemental birds, I want to witness their end, which should be a rare sight. Unfortunately, the Elemental Bird has been able to move freely, and it seems that it has also escaped the constraints of magic equipment and flown elsewhere.
"Great. Xiao Hui, who also saw this scene, laughed happily.
Although I asked Richard directly to hurry up, considering that he had to concentrate, I didn't bother him anymore, and directly took out the magic bioelectronic illustrated book to scan the woman.
"Woman in the Mist, a star six-dark attribute magical creature. A kind-hearted woman who is betrayed and resented by her lover on her wedding night transforms into a magical creature in the form of a spirit, and uses her song to attract a man and ask him to stay with him for the rest of his life. Common skills - Shining, special moves - Call of Love. The object of identification is a soul contractor, a state of non-ascending stars, and a magical creature with dark, wind, and water attributes. β
"Senior, it's not wise to casually attack magical creatures with masters. β
Coming back from my surprise, I solemnly apologize to Richard. He didn't accept my apologies, nor did he say anything I wasn't.
I secretly thought that the wedding girl who was instructed by Richard to act might be a magical creature, so I tried it with the illustrated book, but I didn't expect to be guessed correctly. Oh my God, didn't anyone say that a woman in the fog would suck a man's essence? No wonder Richard looked emaciated...... It probably doesn't matter. However, who would make a soul contract with a dark female magical creature who might kill him, Richard was a joker.
When Xiao Hui and I looked at each other and hesitated to catch a glimpse of the woman in the fog, Richard asked me to pass the word. Because of this call, three candidates locked on to us. It's a really heart-wrenching feeling to watch a play as a spectator, only to be stared at by an actor who has forgotten his lines.
The three of them didn't say a word, and they unleashed ranged magic at us. Due to the suddenness of the incident, I subconsciously moved behind Richard, and returned to him when I thought of the presence of the woman in the fog. Curious about where Richard's faith came from, I was not afraid to sacrifice and move forward.
"Whoa-" a wind blade passed me, "Brother Richard, where's the Shining?"
The man with glasses was silent. I suspected that he was scared to pee, and secretly looked downβ
"The conditions are met. Lisa, let's get started. β
The woman in the fog suddenly appeared in front of us, and she was so frightened that I wanted to hug Xiao Hui, because the principle of proximity hugged Richard. With a shake of his hand, I immediately confirmed everyone's situation. Everyone was really fluctuated, and Ma Chao was even hit steadily.
"Richard, I'm sorry!"
"It doesn't matter, the venue that belongs to us is already done anyway. β
Bending down and bowing and sincerely apologizing, I didn't even look up when I heard Xiao Hui and his surprise for something.
The sea was foggy, and it all happened in the seconds I waited for Richard to answer. The figures of their companions had disappeared, and the sounds of magical battles had faded away. Everyone understands that in such weather, it is very likely that you can accidentally injure your companion by injuring your fellow human beings.
"Well, since I've notified my teammates that the Shining is going to be activated, they'll also remind the seniors not to use magic to dispel the fog. However, even if someone thought of this, the fog would disperse and gather again, after all, there were only a few people who could light magic. β
"Light magic?" I asked Richard.
At this time, Richard had already put down his hand. I don't think he's a man who ignores his companions, or he wouldn't have asked me to inform you. So, isn't he going to concentrate on magic manipulation to give his own people maximum freedom of movement?
"We're all part of nature, and so are magical creatures. All magic can be interpreted based on the elements of nature, such as this fog, which is done through my water magic combined with Lisa's dark magic. In Lisa's world, the faint magic of the wind could not dispel the mist. But since Lisa's primary attribute is darkness, this wonderful scenery that I gave her becomes a dark attribute. β
Richard gave me a blank look, then the corners of his mouth went up, and he said, "Although the fog will hinder everyone, over time, someone will always be able to find a way to accurately hit the enemy in the fog." So, while they're still stuck in the fog, we'll make a profit. β
The man with glasses raised his right hand and pointed in the direction of his classmates, and after noticing something, he turned to me and added, "Of course, I won't hurt your peers, seniors." β
Unbeknownst to him, I was more interested in The Shining than I was in my classmates.
"Enemies. The woman in the fog spoke......
"The three candidates who probably discovered our location rushed towards us when the fog was generated, and although they were obscured by the fog and stopped moving for a while, they still chased us in the direction. Lisa, how far is it?"
"Ten meters ahead. β
"Oh, I can't see it for ten meters, and the visibility of this fog is really low. β
"No," Richard thought with his head bowed slightly, "something is wrong." β
Listening to Richard say that, something is really wrong. Now I'm not short-sighted, how can I not detect three people under the effect of pylorics. The effect of the dense fog is there, after all, I am not a clairvoyant or clairvoyant, but the other party is only ten meters away from us, so I won't lose sight of people.
"I see, is it an invisibility magic device? Richard lowered his right hand holding his chin and ordered the woman in the mist, "Activate your magic skills, Shining." β
The woman's wedding dress that was entangled in the fog didn't even float, and I finally saw it floating in the fog. It's just that this scene is very weird, and I can't help but feel numb on my scalp and chill down my spine.
"What...... Uhh
Screams came from the empty fog. Before the voice fell, the woman in the fog disappeared, and suddenly flashed to the front of us.
"Don't come, don't come......"
Magical tools can hide their form, but they can't hide their fears. There was once a naΓ―ve young man who wanted to see the bride's face, but now he cut it off because he saw the true face of the woman in the fogβher skin was ruined, her mouth was chapped, and her eyes were protruding. Is this still a woman? No, it's not human at all...... Well, it's magical creatures.
"The Wind Turns into a Sharp Blade ......"
The woman disappeared in the fog, and suddenly flashed and shifted her position. For a moment, the screams were gone, and there was silence.
"Senior, they're whereabouts. If you fall down, you will fall into the sea, and I am afraid that you will die. β
Xiao Hui, like me, came back from his daze, and after taking a second to parse the meaning of his words, he immediately looked down. There was a fog all around, how could it be seen clearly.
"Are they dead?" Xiao Hui asked blankly.
"Who knows. Richard smiled evilly, pointing to his original goal and instructing his soul contractor, "Go ahead, leave no one behind." β
Seeing my stunned expression, Richard tilted the corners of his mouth and said, "Don't worry, it's hard to chase after a word." β
"What's that?"
"Wait, run!"
"Don't, don't......"
Screams kept coming out of the fog, making Xiao Hui and I startled. What tragic things happened inside, I want to know.
"Huh?" something came out.
"Damn. Get out of here, get out of here!" seemed to be one of the candidates fighting with Yu Jingjing.
"Hey, wait, it's going to hit me so soon, woo-"
Seeing that the wind mage grasped the sealing talisman and wanted to attack us with magic, I wanted to dodge, but I couldn't make a big move. Richard, the bear child, if you want to get close to each other, don't catch up with your two seniors.
"I told you to get out of the wayβ"
The woman in the fog flashed in front of us, and the boy happened to collide with it. Looking closely, I saw the boy staring straight at me with wide eyes and a look of horror in his eyes.
"Saveβ"
Before the SOS could be sent, he disappeared with the woman in the fog.
"It turns out that there is this kind of operation that flashes together, and I live to learn from the past. β
"Do you want to try it, senior?" asked Richard with a blank face.
"Have you tried?" I replied calmly, feeling very uneasy.
Richard was silent, and I stopped asking, thinking that the boy might have a phobia of women in the fog.
At the end of the mission, the woman in the fog suddenly appears. Because this time it kindly lowered its veil - even if it could see a little, let's turn a blind eye.
"How many?" asked Richard.
"Twelve. The woman in the fog replied.
"Well, it just so happens that the damage value has been reported. β
"How much?" I asked.
Richard turned to me, but turned back as if nothing had happened.
"Big brother, how much?" If you don't answer, I'll pull your clothes.
"Thirty-eight. β
Are you kid looking for a draw?
Richard looked at me, sighed, and said, "Three hundred and eighty." β
"Twelve talents are three hundred and eighty, shouldn't it be one thousand two hundred?"
"Senior, I'm not a person who wants to be dissatisfied, and I'm not so bad as to kill my classmates in the same college. β
Xiao Hui immediately asked, "What about the three people who fell?"
"I've been holding them up with wind magic a long time ago, and when they wake up, I'll disarm the magic, and then it's up to them to make it. β
"You're not afraid that they will retaliate against you?"
Richard replied to me indifferently: "I don't change my name or sit down or change my surname, what they want to do to me is their business, and it's my business whether I accept their revenge or not." β
This...... Is there any claim for revenge that is not acceptable?
"However, even if you leave fifty percent for them, you can still take six hundred damage. Except for the possibility that they have already been attacked and their health has been deducted, to balance it, four or five hundred can be taken, right?"
Richard stared at me this time without turning his head, and said with a slight smile: "Senior, I don't know the other party's health value." Let Lisa attack them, I'm sweating, and it's helpless to kill anyone. β
"No one died, everyone rejoiced. Even if someone wants to die, the spineless person will beg for mercy, and you will know their situation. However, if you don't say it, there is no NDE warning. Everyone's life is worth a lot, what are you afraid of. β
Richard was stunned, smiled heartily, and said to me, "Yi Jia and senior, you are really interesting." Defeated to you. I'll be honest with you, there are a few powerful magicians out there who are strong enough to defeat Lisa together, so I can't let Lisa stay long. β
"Who?"
"Can't say. β
"Concealing information?"
"Whatever you think. β
I squinted at Xiao Hui, who was looking in Yu Jingjing's direction, looking at them in anticipation, seemingly ignoring our conversation.
"You're not worried, I told the student representatives. β
"Worried. β
I'm worried you won't talk about it.
"You didn't ask. In exchange, you'll have to do me a favor. β
Richard lifted his chin in thought, then smiled confidently and confirmed, "Something to do with your soul contractor?"
"Detective. That's right, I want you to teach me how to summon magical creatures - it's a concrete way to do it - preferably by hand. Don't worry, I'm an excellent senior who doesn't have to be ashamed to ask. β
The fog gradually cleared, and the students flew towards us. The candidates who had fought against them before were scattered, and I could still see the panicked ones hurrying away. Both strong and weak mages know that there are still hours to go in the survival competition, and it is important to conserve strength and maintain health.
The woman disappeared in the fog, and Richard probably didn't want to expose his soul contractor to everyone. However, if he wanted to block the information of his soul contractor, he could have avoided summoning the Misty Woman. Maybe he's out of proportion, too, because he's going to be attacked and hurt too...... It doesn't feel likely.
I thought that the members of our team would ask questions, but everyone didn't say anything, and their expressions were serious.
"Victory, why do you look like you've eaten coptis?"
Glancing, there were two less people in the crowd. On closer inspection, there are indeed two missing.
"What about the girls on their team and our Josh?"
Yu Jingjing said indignantly: "It was robbed." The other party asked us to save them, and named Xiao Hui to save them. "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.
