A loud bang and a flash of fire pierced the night in the western part of Hohenhag.

The explosion occurred at a luxury inn called Maple Leaf Grove, which was quickly approached by the mages who were on patrol, and left the inn with the same swift movement after learning what had happened.

"Joe, the cost of compensating for the damage to the hotel will be deducted from your scholarship." A black-haired teenager with single-rimmed glasses said with a cold face.

The room he was in was in a mess as if it had just been ravaged by a Category 10 typhoon, with various pieces of fabric, wood, and metal of unknown nature scattered in disarray, and black radial scorch marks on the floor and walls.

Thankfully, the Maple Leaf Grove is a high-end inn in the magical mecca of Hohenhagrid, and the building itself has a good resistance to magic, so even in the event of an explosion of this magnitude, the room itself is not too damaged, except that the windows have been deformed, otherwise the cost of repairs would have doubled.

"Tsk, you know that Thor, you're always so verbose."

A young man who had turned black replied in an impatient tone, while his right hand was unpleasantly scratching his hair, which had become an explosive head. This action caused a puff of smoke to rise from his head as if it were on fire, and his dark hair revealed its original color, which was a flaming red.

"Even attaching a demon will cause this kind of explosion, Spark boy, you better hurry back to the academy, the province will disgrace our Ixorwen Academy at the evaluation meeting."

A fat man with a three-tiered chin was lying on the bed, his face scornful with naked contempt, mocking mercilessly.

The bed on which he was lying was the only piece of furniture in the room intact, and if you looked closely, you would find that there was no scorch marks on the floor and walls around the bed, like an island, which was incompatible with the messy scene around it.

Obviously, at the moment of the explosion. Someone defended with some kind of magic.

"Shut your foul mouth, Filscher, the fat pig! Otherwise I wouldn't mind sending you back to your mother's womb! ”

Joe, who was already in a bad mood, was like a powder keg, which exploded when he was poked by the fat man.

"As the No.7, you dare to challenge me as the No.1?" The fat man said with a sneer. The three-layered jaw also trembled with his deliberate smile: "If you can do it, come on, you exploding head!" ”

Joe drew his wand, red magic lights and sparks flickering on the tip of the wand, and the fat man stretched out his hand. The ice-blue magical light shrouded his hands like mist, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense as the two people confronted each other.

Then. An earthen wall appeared out of thin air between the two men.

"Stop it. Otherwise, I'll have to inform Assistant Teacher Nanxi! ”

Thor pushed the single-rimmed glasses that were about to slide off the bridge of his nose, and stepped forward to stop the two of them with some headaches: "Don't you think there is enough gossip material for Goddess Pravda next month!" ”

Seeing that both of them were unwilling to lift the spell casting state, Thor snapped his fingers to cancel the very magically expensive earthen wall made of elemental construction - although with his level, even if he used local materials, it was not impossible to change the ground into a wall, but if he did this at the Maple Leaf Grove Hotel, I am afraid that the three of them would be directly driven out by the angry waiter......

Speaking of which. Joe, what's going on with you? The Scorching Enchantment is not a high-level enchantment, it shouldn't be too difficult for you, so why would there be such a big mistake? ”

Maybe he was afraid that the two people who were not compatible would fight again, so Thor simply picked up the conversation himself.

"Hey, I've been cheated by that old man at the tail of the rat!"

As soon as I mention this. Qiao, who had turned into an explosive head, came from one place in a rage, and he gritted his teeth and said, "He actually used the fire crystal powder as an ember dust and sold it to me!" ”

The fat man on the side continued to sneer and said, "You can't even distinguish between ember dust and fire crystal powder, have you learned alchemy in vain?" ”

Joe didn't bother to explain, and threw a fist-sized half-bag of powder that hadn't been used up to the fat man.

"He mixed other things into it, and the appearance was exactly the same as in the book, and it was impossible to distinguish it. If it weren't for the sudden activation of the magic power in Yaojing during the experiment, I wouldn't even know what was wrong with the Dao! ”

The fat man Felsher picked up a handful of powder and carefully distinguished it, and the short eyebrows that looked a little funny gradually wrinkled - even if he was the No.1 in the academy, he couldn't tell the difference between the two without using magic perception!

"Joe, don't go for trouble with Squirrel Tail."

Thor saw that Joe's mood was a little unstable, so he warned: "You know the rules. ”

Magicians are synonymous with knowledge, all alchemy materials or spell casting materials after buying and leaving the store, if you find something wrong, you can only blame yourself for not being able to identify it due to lack of knowledge, and you can't blame the shop, this is the pride of magicians, and the rules in the wizarding world are conventional-of course, buying a certain material in large quantities, and the shopkeeper adulterating it is two words.

"Of course I know this kind of rule!" Joe replied irritably. It's because of Zhilu Dao that he is so irritable.

At this time, the fat man Filscher suddenly narrowed his eyes, which made his already small triangular eyes even smaller: "Speaking of which, do you remember that when Stupid Joe was buying Ember Dust, the other academy student in the store behaved a little strangely. ”

When he said this, both Thor and Joe remembered the other people who were at Tail of the Squirrel at the time, and their strange behavior at that time came to their minds again.

"Could it be ......" After a while, Thor said the conjecture in the hearts of the three of them: "Did they see at that time that what Joe bought was not ember dust, but Huo Yaojing powder?" ”

"I haven't seen the emblem of that academy, so it shouldn't be a famous academy."

Qiao recalled the emblems on the side of Kamiyu's bodies, and after comparing them with the famous schools he had investigated in the academy, his expression was much more relaxed: "If it weren't for the fact that they had also been pitted, it probably belonged to the academy that specialized in alchemy." ”

"Is that really the case......

A faint sneer appeared on Filscher's face. He was already aware of the supernormal perception at the tail of the rat, so he immediately thought of Kamiyu and them - is it really the kind of waste wood academy that can't even pass the evaluation meeting?

I'm afraid that in the place where these famous colonels don't know the way, another academy with profound heritage has appeared. (To be continued.) )
