Chapter 100: Order of the Phoenix
And just as Claire announced his candidate for the next student council, the first-year Jones Hall was also shocked by Rickon's speech.
Just now, Rickon announced that the Order of the Phoenix will be reborn today, and all students who join the Order of the Phoenix will be able to receive his funding and guidance, and made a grand wish, declaring that the Order of the Phoenix will drive out demons for mankind and become a nightmare for demons.
The Order of the Phoenix can be said to be the predecessor of the Luther School of Magic. Four hundred and seventy-three years ago, the ancestors of the Luther clan wanted to accumulate strength for mankind to fight back against demons, so they taught their magical knowledge to those talented young people for free, and established the Order of the Phoenix. The phoenix is a special fire elemental beast that seems to be extinct in the empire at present, and it is said that the favorite pet of the ancestors of the Luther clan is a phoenix. Its special feature is that it has an extremely powerful self-healing ability, as long as there is a trace of fire element, it can heal its own injuries, and when it dies, it will turn into a phoenix egg, once it is placed in a sufficient concentration of fire element, it will be reborn again, so in the eyes of humans, it is like the embodiment of immortality. Every member of the Order of the Phoenix has taken the fight against demons as their lifelong mission, and none of them died in the empire, but their spirit has been passed down, just like the immortal phoenix, even if the name has changed, but each student president has contributed their own strength in the war against the demons, and even as many as sixteen student presidents have died in battle.
Now, as the successor of the Luther clan, Rickon announced the re-establishment of the Order of the Phoenix, apparently to distinguish himself from the student union, which, as he said earlier, has been reduced to an ordinary elite organization in a peaceful environment, only enjoying abundant resources but forgetting its original purpose. And what he wants to do is to correct this mistake of the student council, and once again assume the responsibility that should be borne by being the elite of the human race.
As soon as these words came out, all the first-year students first showed a look of shock, and then a look of admiration emerged. Everyone saw the infinite possibilities of his future from that thin but straight body, as long as he went with the flow, he could achieve the achievements that ordinary people looked up to, but he chose the most difficult path, such a courage can't help but make people's hearts break.
And the people in the Phil Building, who still had a knot in Ricken's heart, were also defeated after Rickon's speech, and they also admired Ricken.
However, Brandon looked at Rickon who was holding the moon with all the stars in the crowd, and his brows couldn't help but frown and look at Kevin on the side and said, "Kevin, do you think what he said just now is serious?" β
Kevin thought for a moment, then nodded.
The football game that lasted for half a month greatly enhanced the relationship between several people, and also made each other realize their respective strengths and weaknesses, although Kevin couldn't speak, but his calm personality and wise mind left a deep impression on Brandon, and now seeing that Kevin has made such a judgment, Brandon no longer doubts, sighed: "Maybe Kenny really said it, this Rickon may really be a good person." β
After hearing Brandon's words, Kevin was noncommittal, his face was calm but his eyes were shining all the time staring at Rickon, as if he wanted to get a glimpse of Rickon's true thoughts.
However, admiration for admiration, Brandon doesn't think anyone will join Rickon's Order of the Phoenix, what age is it now, except for soldiers and adventurers, who else wants to fight the terrible demons? What's more, they are all promising magicians, who would be so stupid and anxious to send them to death?
But, as it turned out, Brandon was still too naΓ―ve. You must know that the prom of each grade is prepared by the student council, and since Rickon dared to announce it so loudly at the party prepared by the student council, it shows that he has enough confidence to call the student council head-on, so what is his confidence? Naturally, it is his family background and strength. As long as the freshmen can see this, then Rickon has no worries that no one will not come to join the Order of the Phoenix. However, for a person like Brandon, who is not sharp enough, he naturally can't understand the deep meaning behind Rickon's move.
As the music sounded, Rickon's high-profile speech was temporarily put on the back burner of everyone, after all, the theme of tonight was still the ball, so the accompanying students walked to the central venue with their dance partners, and danced to the melodious music, which was strongly condemned by the singles who could only stay aside with envy and jealousy.
Brandon was naturally part of this group of singles, but just as he wanted to turn his grief and anger into appetite, he was surprised that the curly-haired man who was just eating next to him was not the genius magician of the McGee team? Why doesn't he even have a female companion?
So Brandon walked up to him curiously, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Hey, you don't have a female companion either?" β
Nigles was holding the plate with food in his mouth, and a pair of fish bubbles looked Brandon up and down without recognizing his identity, so he nodded and walked away with the plate.
Although I don't know why Negles doesn't have a female companion, but seeing that such a powerful third-order magician has not found a female companion, Brandon's heart is suddenly much more balanced, and then looking at the men and women dancing in the arena also feel much more pleasing to the eye, except for Auston, of course.
In fact, what Brandon didn't know was that if he was dressed a little more decently, I'm afraid that Jasmine or Lisa would also consider choosing him as their dance partner, after all, they were relatively familiar. However, Brandon dressed so casually that even the two girls were discouraged, so Lisa chose Kevin, who was reasonably dressed, as her dance partner, and as for Jasmine, Jasmine didn't seem to be seen in the banquet hall at this time.

Underground laboratory.
Calvin looked at Mick, who was not affected by the festive atmosphere in the slightest, and asked tentatively, "Mick, do you know that there is a student prom tonight?" β
"Hmm." Mick replied without raising his head, his eyes stayed on the magic array in front of him, and he didn't know if he heard what Calvin was asking.
"Well, don't you have a dance partner?" Calvin didn't know what sad past he had in mind, and a touch of grief and indignation appeared on his face, but it only made people feel very funny.
"Hmm." Mick looked at the complicated magic in front of him, closed his eyes and felt it for a moment, but only sketched a few magic runes and went wrong, so he opened his eyes again to remember.
Calvin sighed heavily when he heard this, and said with his jaw propped up: "I didn't expect that even a handsome child like Mick, you are ignored now, what is wrong with this world?" β
In fact, not only the students but also the professors had a party tonight, but Calvin was in danger of being dismissed right now, so he didn't receive an invitation, so he had to stay in his lab obediently, with Naruto and Mick as his company.
"You say, how did a good day become such a festival that can only leave people sad?" Calvin poured himself a beer, drank it with sashimi, and then let out a long hiccup, and inexplicably said in a low mood, "I really want to go to the prom...... My life is exactly the same as it was more than 20 years ago......"
Calvin's fragmented thoughts finally succeeded in freeing Mick from his learning state, Mick raised his head, frowned, and said, "Professor, are you drunk?" β
Naruto has a strange look, every time Calvin fails an experiment, he will get drunk, when he is good, he will fall asleep, and when it is bad, Calvin will even sing.
"Drunk? How could I possibly get drunk so quickly? If you don't believe me, I'll sing you a song. The small village to the east ~ where a little doll lives ~ One day he ......"
Mick finally couldn't hold on, covered his ears and said to Naru, "Naru! You take care of the professor, I'll go back first! β
Mick didn't know if Naruto understood his words, but after seeing Naruto nod to him, he put a magic array into the Ring of Darkness, and then fled out of the research room below.
And when Mick returned to the first floor of the magic technology laboratory, he heard a noise from the door, accompanied by the panicked shouts of a girl, which felt quite familiar to him. So Mick walked out the door without thinking, and saw two drunken teenagers pulling a dressed girl, looking at the soft and delicate face, who else could it be if it wasn't Jasmine?
Mick was in a hurry, hurriedly walked up to the three of them, pushed the two teenagers away, pulled Jasmine behind him, and said loudly, "Who are you?!" How dare you be so presumptuous in the academy?! β
The two teenagers were already a little drunk, and their steps were quite shaky, and Mick in front of his fingers said with a big tongue, "You, what are you?" How dare you be the way of this young master?! β
"yes, you can afford to mess with us too?! Why don't you hand over that girl and dance with us!" Another boy with short, millet curly hair said.
Mick held Jasmine's slightly cold little hand, turned his head and whispered, "Jasmine, you go back to the villa first, and I'll pester them." Don't worry, I'm fine. β
The tone was as gentle as it had been at the time.
Jasmine's already happy face was full of trust, nodded and walked towards the dormitory with her skirt propped up, and the two teenagers frowned when they saw that Jasmine was going to escape, and wanted to ignore Mick and chase after her.
"Wake up." saw Mick take out his wand, and a slightly transparent first-order magic array of water systems appeared on the top, and then the soles of their feet were hit by two blue lights, covered with a thin layer of frost, and fell to the ground fiercely.
"The seal magic on this Lutheran Tower is really powerful." Seeing that the Freezing Technique could only achieve such an effect, Mick involuntarily looked at the Lutheran Tower in the center of the academy, but felt a pang of regret at the thought that he could only enter the Lutheran Tower in the second year due to grade restrictions.
And because the two of them landed directly on their faces, they immediately had a few more friction injuries on their faces, only to feel that the whole face was hot and painful, and most of the drunkenness was gone, and one of them pointed at Mick and said loudly: "I'll tell you, you're in a big deal!" β
