As time passed, there were more and more people in the Holy Demon Square, and there were many soldiers of the empire around, and Nicholas had been enrolled for so long, in addition to the grand competition, it was the first time he had seen so many people gathered.

He looked at the people below him on the stage with a nervous mood, thinking to himself, if he was allowed to speak, what should he say, what should he say so that it would not seem strange? It's a great opportunity to salvage your image.

"Please be quiet."

It didn't take long for Leo to stand at the front, and a kind of amplification magic array was arranged in his place, so that his voice could be heard clearly in all the squares, and in an instant the noisy square fell silent.

Leo didn't say anything more, but first bowed respectfully to the tall statue of the Empress, and everyone's faces changed drastically, and a thought came to mind.

Could it be that the empress is also paying attention to this at this time!?

For a while, everyone present, including Nicholas, silently bowed their heads to the statue of the empress and bowed very respectfully.

"It's a pity that this time, the remnants of the Yanlong Empire have attacked us again."

Leo glanced at everyone present, and said in a heavy tone: "Not only the Holy Demon Academy, but also the west and east sides of Burning Sun City, as well as the center, have all appeared in the remnants of the Flame Dragon this time, although we have already taken precautions, there are still many casualties, especially those innocent ordinary people. ”

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but clench their fists, and a wave of anger rose in their hearts, even ordinary people didn't let go, Yanlong's remnants were really unforgivable!

"As for the academy's side, first of all, I would like to apologize to you on behalf of the academy, because of our negligence, we allowed the remnants of Yanlong to get the opportunity to attack the students, it is really unimaginable that there are three mentors in our Holy Demon Academy who are their people! Of course, there may be more than these three, but rest assured, we will thoroughly check each teacher after that to ensure that this does not happen again and that everyone can practice in a safe environment. ”

"In this attack, the senior earth magic tutor Bloomer, the reason why he became a member of the Yanlong is unknown for the time being, no one died in his hands, the senior spear martial arts instructor Doug, the reason for becoming a member of the Yanlong is unknown for the time being, there are three students who died in his hands this time, and the mentor of the apprentice class, Silas, a native of Sun City, may be because of the son who disappeared ten years ago, because of the student Nicholas of the junior class of the Magic Branch, so no one died in his hands this time......"

That son who disappeared ten years ago? In fact, he was captured by Yanlong? Is it a threat?

Hearing this, Nicholas's originally clenched fist couldn't help but clench even tighter, and from Silas's words, it could be guessed that he did seem to be threatened, and if this was the reason, everything was explained.

What you want to protect and what you should protect......

Nicholas couldn't help but recall what Silas said, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, if this is really the case, then what will happen to Silas's son after the mission fails......

"Nicholas?"

Nicholas, who was a little distracted, was suddenly awakened by Leo's scream.

"Nicholas, please come over for a moment."

Leo smiled and beckoned to Nicholas, who was standing in the corner.

Seeing that it seemed as if everyone was waiting for him, Nicholas hurried forward.

Leo pulled Nicholas to his side and said loudly to everyone: "This is the hero Nicholas who protected the group of young apprentices, because he triggered the power of desperation in a desperate situation, and he desperately consumed his life force to protect that group of apprentices, don't be naïve to think that triggering the power of desperation is just luck, you must understand that there is a necessary condition for the power of desperation, that is, firm faith!" ”

"At that moment, our heroes absolutely only wanted to protect those apprentices! Including his sister, of course, and even preferring to give up his own life! Only such a belief can trigger the power of despair! If it weren't for the help arriving in time at the last minute, he would even want to use up the few lives he had left to summon a few Holy Guardians for that group of apprentices, please let us applaud such a hero! ”

Thunderous applause suddenly resounded in the square, and there were countless shouts, and it was obvious that Nicholas's behavior had won the respect of most people.

The applause was like a tide, and it lasted for a while before stopping, when Nicholas was treated like this, he couldn't help but be flattered, but he was faintly excited in his heart, being a hero admired by everyone, but the dream of all teenagers!

Fergus looked up at Nicholas on the stage, took a deep breath, a fire of jealousy churned in his heart, he knew that he was jealous, the person he looked down on for four years turned over and became this kind of existence, he really couldn't accept it.

He admits that those who have been saved should indeed be grateful to him, but not so exaggerated that he is put in the position of a hero, and everyone admires him, and Figus is not convinced at all, even now he feels that he has thrown Nicholas a few streets, but there are still five days before he can become the one who defeats this hero......

Leo continued: "Without Nicholas, the consequences would be unimaginable, and on behalf of the Academy, I am truly grateful to you, and I promise to do my best to restore your spent vitality. ”

Leo suddenly bowed solemnly to Nicholas.

Nicholas hurriedly wanted to help him up, but he couldn't shake him at all, Nicholas said in a panic: "Mentor Leo, you are serious, please don't do this!" ”

"No, that's the truth, I can't imagine that."

It took Leo for a moment to stand up straight, his eyes suddenly complicated, and he whispered, "I am personally grateful to you, thank you for stopping Silas, if he kills his own student, he will definitely ......."

Leo suddenly stopped in the middle of his words, sighed slightly and said no more, he pushed Nicholas to the front, and said with a smile: "What do you want to say to everyone, you have a lot of admirers now." ”

"Well, this ...... That ......"

Nicholas blushed suddenly, and when he saw the crowd of people below, he was suddenly so nervous that he didn't know what to say, but suddenly noticed the statue of the kamikaze empress, his whole body was shocked, and he hurriedly straightened his back, only then did he think that the empress might also be paying attention here!

This is the Kamikaze Empress! A god in the minds of all the people and magicians of the Kamikaze Empire! How could he lose his temper in front of her.

"Hero! If you have anything to say, just say it. ”

"Haha, yes, don't be shy."

"Hero Nicholas I love you!"

.......

Looking at the surging crowd, Nicholas was full of emotion for a while, and his life was really up and down, but he didn't expect that he would change from a saint and demon to a hero in just a few days.

Nicholas somehow thought of Silas's words again, he shook his head, and slowly spoke: "I'm not a hero, I'm just guarding the people I should protect......"

"Choose."
