Chapter 561: Monsters at the bottom of the lake

Ignoring the nonsense of Sivi at the closing ceremony, the Great Magic Festival finally came to an end.

After confirming that everyone had left the half-plane, Sivi also removed the portal, cutting off the means of communication between the half-plane and the main material plane.

And the temporary recruits of the Pigs also disappeared without a trace, to the surprise of many tourists who planned to leave the next day - why did they disappear overnight when they didn't see those chubby guys out of the city?

After that, the Adric Academy made another announcement as if it were a restless child.

"It's nonsense!"

In the conference room at the top of the headquarters of the Hohenheim Mage Association, the old mage with a pigtail on his head and a snow-white beard slammed the Goddess Pravda in his hand on the table, and said angrily: "The Great Magic Festival has just ended, and it is actually recruiting new magic professors under the noses of other academies and our people!" ”

"Isn't that normal?" Sitting on his right hand, an old man with a goatee and a cyan magic mark on his left cheek stroked his beard with an indifferent expression: "After all, that academy has only been established for a long time, except for the monster boy of Edric, there are only two or three kittens, and he has been relying on the support of the teachers of the Julian National Academy of Magic to operate normally, it is better to say that it would be strange if he did not recruit new professors." ”

"Francis is right." Old Sharman who sat at the head nodded and agreed with Goatee's words.

Although he also attended the opening ceremony of the Great Magic Festival, he was the supreme leader of the Mage Guild. He couldn't stay in Morag for long, so he returned to Hohenheim early the next morning.

"As an academy of magic, the quality and quantity of magic professors are critical, it's just normal behavior, don't mind."

"If that's all it takes," said the pigtailed mage, blew his beard and glared, "but what does that mean?" 21. Alumni Visit? Isn't it already clear that he wants to win over those academies and organize a new magical force, and does he take our Qiyao Mage Association seriously! ”

Obviously, this guy didn't know what to do, and the main purpose of Sivi's visit was really just to exchange magical knowledge, especially about the soul.

"I propose to send a messenger to condemn and stop his actions! If he insists on going his own way, he will contact the King's Council. Send mage troops to sanction him! ”

The old man said excitedly. He kept banging his fists on the table to increase his momentum.

"That's enough, Shaunalit, you give me a little pause! Adric may be able to rise, but only if we hold on to the lifeblood of the wizarding world. No matter how far he rises. None of them will have any effect on our legitimacy. ”

The goatee glared at the spitting pigtail mage: "Sanctions? You're kidding. The whole eastern continent knows that he has just staged a masterpiece. Edric is extremely prosperous under his leadership, sanction him at this time, aren't you afraid of being condemned by other magic academies! ”

The little pigtail mage was weak. But he still said unwillingly: "It's better to let that stinky boy who hasn't dried up sit on our heads and condemn something......"

"Okay, I'll send the Goddess Pravda Recorder to the Adric Academy in the future, I'm sure with those guys watching, our miracle boy will be a little more restrained." Old Sharman clapped his hands to stop their argument, "In fact, I am more concerned now with the living disasters that are happening everywhere than with Mr. Edric and his Academy. You must know that only those old guys who can defeat those living natural disasters and minimize the damage are those old guys after all. Lady Quillin, I remember that all the information I gathered before should be on your side. ”

Named by Old Shaman, the old woman sitting opposite him nodded, and said in a hoarse and old voice: "The situation is not optimistic, and now it has been confirmed that there are as many as one hundred and two living disasters, of which only seventy-seven have been dealt with, and the rest of the local Qiyao Mage Tower branches are trying to control the situation. There have been nearly 37 other sightings of live natural disasters, but they have not yet been confirmed. ”

Unlike the lively atmosphere just now, the whole venue is now quiet.

Although Xiwei has made rapid progress, he is inferior to them in terms of seniority, and of course there is no pressure at all to arrange his juniors, but the current situation is different, and the crisis of mankind is once again on their table.

I have to say that this year was really a disaster year for the Eastern Plains. First, the Abyssal Demons invaded the Eastern Plains under the guidance of vampires, and even after being repulsed, they settled in a corner and established the Timothyan Dark Alliance in the northeast.

The subsequent orc invasion caused several countries close to the northern hills to be bloodied and mourned.

And as soon as the orcs retreated, in the past six months, there have been many disasters that seem to have self-awareness, roaring, destroying, destroying, and rampaging through human cities and manors, causing tens of thousands of casualties.

If you look at the data, you can find that the first two caused far more losses and casualties than the third one.

But in fact, the first two are not a big deal for the Qiyao Mage Association. Even in the case of the Abyssal Demon Invasion, they have taken a slight laissez-faire attitude in order to teach the King's Council, which has become more and more arrogant in recent years, a lesson to be learned, although it turns out that they seem to have gotten a little out of the way......

But the third parties that are happening now, that is, those living disasters, are much more important than the first two. And so far, they haven't been able to find a specific reason why this happened suddenly.

"Anyway, those living disasters are going to bother you. If you have any idea about the current situation, please let me know as soon as possible...... Finally, please be careful...... I don't want to see a second Pierce anymore. ”

Old Sharman sighed and made a slight mage salute to all the archmages who were in the meeting.

The old people also took a more serious and reverent mage ceremony.

- Morag. Adric College –

Sivi was repeatedly checking the resumes of the people who had signed up to select their academy's magic professors.

Of course, there is no such thing as a resume in this world, and what he is looking at now is by paying a lot of fees. The students were instructed to complete a series of tasks before they obtained a temporary item, the 'Aksya's Personal Record'.

This record is capable of obtaining information about the life and personal information of that person through contact with that person.

Although the system is very bad, it is still trustworthy in terms of accuracy...... This is also the reason why after finding out that there is this task, Xiwei will immediately drag a large group of students to do it.

After all, what Adrick needed was a magic professor who taught his students wholeheartedly and occasionally did research according to his own hobbies, not other colleges or powerful spies.

After throwing the resumes of indiscriminate speculators, spies, and pedophiles in the trash, there are still a lot of resumes left on Sivi's desk, but unfortunately they are basically mid-level magicians.

For the vast majority of high-level magicians, they can be paid far more for other work than they are for being a professor, and Edric's rules and regulations are much stricter than those of other colleges. Naturally, no one will be bored and come to suffer......

"Why don't you take some gear or something as bait? But I always feel that this utilitarian color is too serious...... And can the guy who came with the equipment really teach the students well? ”

Sivi scratched his head in a rare way.

He is not an all-knowing and all-powerful God, after all. It's a no-brainer when it comes to this kind of thing.

"Why don't you just choose in the middle level? But after a while, the students are all about to reach the intermediate level, right? It's always weird to ......."

At the beginning, Adric sent out the owl to select students, and they all found the kind of people who would definitely achieve something if they were placed in the right environment, and they were talented, in fact, Edric's poor students would probably be treated as honor students by those colleges when they were placed in most magic academies......

Sophia and Fett are in charge of the 21st School Friendship Visit. And Sophia didn't want to be bothered by Sivi for some reason. I don't want to disturb Sivi's work. He also took Fitt to other rooms to work, which made it impossible for Sivi to even find a reliable person to ask for advice.

"Evangeline seems to have gone back to the palace on something; There is no way to refer to the opinion of that stupid man of Shalan; Alyssa and Alice are students themselves, and it's a bit strange to ask; The same goes for Theo. And I don't think the little girl has any interest in this kind of thing; Franconia has been distracted by Claude's relationship lately, and it is certainly not conclusive to ask him at this time...... I can't even imagine that life is really lonely like snow. ”

Ignoring the elk-nosed tapir specimen hanging on the wall with a 'come and ask me, come and ask me' expression, Sivi threw away the resume in his hand, leaned back on the back of the soft chair, stretched a big lazy waist and sighed.

"Ah, teacher, you're being lazy again." Alyssa and Alice walked into the dean's room together, the maid girl still holding a tray with teacups and teapots in her hands. Seeing that Sivi was stretching over there, Alyssa chuckled.

"It's just an intermittent break."

Xiwei, who was found lazy in front of his own students, did not feel embarrassed at all, and replied with a smile: "Did you come together?" ”

"Alice is here to bring you black tea, and she says you should be tired at this time."

Alyssa smiled evilly and snatched the white way, and that expression made the maid girl's little face flush with shame.

"It's Alice, you really know my schedule." Ignoring the interaction between the girls, Xiwei took the black tea made by Alice, took a sip slightly, and suddenly felt the smooth aroma filling his mouth, with a long and beautiful aftertaste, and couldn't help but praise: "Hmm, Alice, your tea-making skills have improved again." ”

"Hey, hey, yes." The maid girl hugged the tray and smiled embarrassedly.

"And what about you, Alyssa? What are you doing here? ”

Putting down the teaglass, Sivi asked his first student again.

"Before, teacher, didn't you tell us to clean up the underground cave where the Coiled Wise Man was entrenched?"

Alyssa first asked rhetorically.

By the way, the Coiled Wise Man is the monster who first hid in the bed of the Mohs Lassi River and played puzzles with Xiwei, but ended up playing himself to death, and was eventually made into the main source of energy in the Third School District......

Because the wonderful barrier separating the water in the bed of the Mo's Lassi River still existed after the death of the Coiled Wise Man, Sivi asked the students to clean it up with the leprechaun. Let's see if we can find something there.

"Oh, did you find something there?"

Sivi was a little interested in this.

"We've dug up a part of the body of some kind of monster, and the leprechaun says it's too dangerous to keep digging, so it's better for you to go over and identify what kind of monster it is, and then decide if you want to dig it out."

That's how Alyssa explained.

"Oh, I just get tired of reading this kind of material all day," Xiwei's eyes lit up, and despite the fact that the black tea was still a little hot, he drank it in one gulp, and then stood up. Stretched out his hand and swiped in the air in front of him. A crack appeared there: "What are you waiting for, let's go." ”

Because Alice was also curious about this, Sivi also took the maid girl to the other side of the riverbed.

Unlike when Franconia first arrived, most of the riverbed has been dug up. And there are a lot of high-power magic lamps around. Illuminate this otherwise dark area.

Stand on solid dirt. Looking at the fish overhead that were attracted to the light and gathered, Sivi felt like he was in an aquarium.

But soon he came to his senses, guided by the leprechaun in charge of mining. Go to the place where the foreign object was dug up.

Since this is underwater, people who are not familiar with water elemental magic can't get down at all, so most of the students currently participating in this daily quest are magicians who are good at the water element. They were following Sivi with interest, wanting to hear from their dean, to see what they had dug up.

As for the danger...... In the consciousness of these little guys, as long as there is Sivi, no matter what happens, there will be no danger.

Soon they came to the place where the monster's body was dug up.

It was only a small part of the dirt, but it was the size of a small bench, and it looked like a tip like a horn.

Sivi touched it with a mage's hand and found that the thing was actually soft, but because it was covered with a layer of dirt, it looked like a hard horn.

After patting the dirt from the outside, the tip revealed its true face.

"What's the tip of the tail?"

By the light of the magic lamp, Sivi looked at what was in front of him and tried to judge it.

But there was so little exposed, and he couldn't feel even a shred of magic on it, so he couldn't be sure what was buried under the ground.

Maybe it's dead...... Looking at the tip of the tail that didn't react, Sivi touched his chin.

However, to be on the safe side, he drank away the students who were getting closer and closer before he began to manipulate the earth elemental to infiltrate the dirt, manipulating the soil to expel the creature (or dead thing) from it.

As if to verify his suspicions, the first thing that came out of the soil was a long tail with a shiny black coat, which did not look like it had been buried in the soil for an unknown number of years.

This made Sivi a little vigilant.

Then came out of the dirt with most of the other party's body.

It looked like an oversized dog or a wolf, and the half of its body was terrifyingly large.

Is it a toothed wolf or a seat wolf?

Sivi was a little more relaxed. After all, although there are the best in the toothed wolf breed and the za wolf breed, even those so-called best ones can only be obediently dogs.

But the strange thing is that until now, Sivi still did not feel any signs of magic on that body.

Could it be that this thing really died a long time ago, but it didn't turn into bones because of its talent?

When the other party's head was revealed, the corner of Xiwei's eyes jumped, and he shouted directly: "All the staff use the return crystal to return to Edric!" ”

In terms of appearance, this giant beast is indeed powerful, and it has a mane similar to that of a lion on its neck, except that its mane is fiery red, windless and automatic, and it looks like a flame from a distance, and its head is similar to that of a dog, but the problem is that this thing has three heads.

"It's Cerberus."

If you can still recognize the mistake when you see such obvious characteristics, Xiwei doesn't have to be a professor, and it is a mistake to teach like this.

Cerberus, also known as the Three-Headed Hellhound of Hell, has a record of destroying a small duchy overnight. If it weren't for the fact that his strength would weaken in the sun, and he was extremely afraid of divine magic, the crusade level could have been increased by at least 2 levels.

But that's not the reason Sivi let the students go first.

Many magicians know about the Three-Headed Dog of Hell, but they don't know about Cerberus.

At the beginning of the Age of Mythology, Cerberus appeared as the forerunner of the Abyss, when it was faced with the strongest combat method of mankind and the only battle mage who managed to reach the level of the legendary 'mage', Holgros.

In that battle, Holgros was bitten off an arm before he could barely push Cerberus back, and a handful of hairs he inadvertently pulled from Cerberus during the battle turned into a number of three-headed dogs of hell and began to cause trouble for the world.

Curiously, Cerberus has not been seen since. The term Hellhounds was also inherited by the monsters whose hair was turned into by Cerberus, and eventually became a monster in the abyss that was on par with the High Demons.

However, the image of the three-headed dog of hell is still different from that of Cerberus. For example, the former is covered in armor like an exoskeleton, while the latter is pitch black, with only a flaming red mane...... Obviously, the guy they found was not the three-headed dog of hell, but the real Cerberus.

If that legend is not exaggerated, the crusade level of this guy in front of Xiwei is probably more than level 60, and he is the most powerful enemy that Xiwei has encountered so far, and there is no one!

I saw that the nose on the monster's head twitched for a moment, and then slowly opened its eyes, and the dark pupils seemed to burn with a dark blue soul fire.

"Is it you who will awaken me from eternal sleep, lowly human being?" (To be continued......)
