"So, Zorn let me go because of you?" On the way to the headmaster's office, Retia finally learned in conversation why the person who had been promised to appear was still missing, and not even a magic message had been sent. She wasn't worried about any danger that Zorn would encounter, this was Pearl City, the safest place in the entire Huangyu Empire except for the imperial capital.

"That's what you say...... I can't deny it. Liu Li finally took this pot on his back, and he was indeed responsible for this matter. The main thing is that he didn't expect Zorn's willpower to be so strong, and he actually insisted on seeing the process of processing gemstones from beginning to end, "That...... It may be offended, but I still want to ask, is your bloodline the Shen Yuan Dragon?"

Liu Li knew that this question was rather abrupt, but finally decided to ask. He was going to the Sea Clan soon, and the spatial rift that needed to be sealed was located in the depths of the abyss, so it would always be good to know more about one of the overlord demonic beasts in the abyss.

"Hmph, it's really an offense!" After hearing Liu Li's question, Letia stared at Liu Li's eyes angrily, but found that the young man in front of her was calm, and asked if this was definitely not to satisfy her curiosity, "Okay, you guessed it right, it is the Shenyuan Dragon bloodline." But I don't think you're the kind of person who would deliberately make people angry, can you tell me why you're asking about this?"

"I'm going to the Sea Clan soon, and I'm likely going deep into the abyss. "Liu Li didn't hide his itinerary, and the purpose of his trip to the Sea Clan was not something unseemly, as long as he didn't mention the spatial rift to avoid causing panic, there was nothing else to say, "The main purpose of coming to the Pearl Academy this time is to see if there is a teleportation to the 'Sunset Abyss' Academy, and by the way, exchange magic." ”

"So the duel between you and me before was a small episode in the process of 'by the way'?" It's no wonder that Lettia is dissatisfied, she is also known as a genius in the Pearl Academy, but the strongest spell she mastered was easily resolved by Liu Li still made her suffer a lot of blows, "Well, forget it, although I lost quite badly this time, but I will win it back next time!"

Liu Li looked at this girl who had regained her spirits in a very short period of time, and couldn't help but be impressed by her. He found that he still underestimated Retia, and her achievements were not only due to the talent brought by the bloodline, but also inseparable from this tenacity of not admitting defeat.

"Look at what, it's useless for you to look at me, I have someone I like!"

"Ahem, cough, ahem......" Retia's words almost made Liu Li choke to death with his own saliva, but this also confirmed his previous conjecture, "So, it's really Zorn?"

"If you dare to say it, you will die!" Retia blushed and threatened viciously, completely forgetting the gap between herself and Liu Li's combat power.

"Well, I'm not going to talk to anyone about this kind of thing anyway. Liu Li didn't plan to continue to stimulate this fried girl, "Let's talk about 'Shen Yuan Dragon', after all, if you want to go to that kind of place, it's good to know more about the owner there, even if it's one of the masters." ”

"Well, even if you ask me to introduce you now, I can't remember everything...... So, how long are you going to stay in Pearl City?" Lettia thought for a while and decided to say hello to her family first, "I can go back and ask the family if I can let you see the information of the original bloodline fusion ceremony, if it only involves the part of the Shen Abyss Dragon, it shouldn't be a big problem." ”

"Well, thank you then. I can stay in Pearl City for a maximum of seven days, and of course, if the teleportation circle can be used, I may be able to stay longer, and there should still be time for it. ”

"Now, here we are, this is the center of the Pearl Academy, and the one in front of us is the Master's Tower, but I can't guarantee that she won't have time to see you now. ”

"Why don't you go in with me?" Liu Li asked suspiciously, looking at Letia, who had stopped moving.

"Nonsense, you forgot that I skipped class?"

......

"What do you two little ones want to drink, coffee or tea?"

The head of the Pearl Academy was an old woman with a kind face, and her tone of voice was also gentle, but Liu Li didn't dare to underestimate her at all. Principal Maggie didn't hide that powerful elemental fluctuation at all, Liu Li only felt like a lonely boat floating in the sea, and now when the sea is calm, you can still enjoy the gentle sea breeze, but as long as the storm comes, it will capsize in an instant and be swallowed by the vast and deep sea.

Liu Li and Letia were "captured" into the Mage Tower by the head of Maggie's academy, but unlike Landolia's usual black hole arrest method, Maggie's approach was more like replacing the space they were in into the reception room, and they only felt that their consciousness changed positions after a moment's trance.

"Well, coffee, I'm a little bad for black tea. Liu Li's face was as usual, when he was in the Eleno Academy of Magic, he was thrown around by Landolia with a black hole several times a day, he had long been accustomed to spatial transformation, so he would naturally not be surprised at this time, and even felt that this kind of teleportation method without thunder and lightning was a little too gentle. However, he was not rude, not only did he respond with a respectful mage as soon as he saw Principal Maggie, but he also looked like he was being taught at any time after sitting down.

"That...... Me, I...... Both. Compared with Liu Li's calmness, Letia seemed a little cramped and uneasy.

"Little Retia, relax, you didn't come here to play a lot when you were a child, why did you grow up but became restrained. Principal Maggie's smile was gentle, but the next sentence startled the half-fishman girl, "It's not once or twice that you've skipped class, I saw it the last time you took a nap in the western woods...... Sleeping is still as dishonest as when I was a child. ”

"Ahaha...... You, you know it. "Lettia just wants to leave as soon as possible now, facing the head of the academy makes her very stressed, especially as a student, and the situation that the handle falls into the hands of the other party, which makes her stay here like a pins and needles.

"Well, forget it, go back if you want to. Principal Maggie pretended to complain, "When I was a child, I was so clingy, and when I was bullied, I came to complain, and I liked the snacks I made so much......"

"yes, and then Grandma Maggie experiments with me whenever she has a new recipe, like a small cake flavored with Flame Pepper, or a dragon flame flan with flan of tart. "The grievances of the head of Maggie are pretentious, and this is the resentment that Retia has left behind after suffering all the time. As she spoke, the half-fish-man girl took out a huge water cup with a capacity of at least two liters from the storage space, summoned a water balloon with a spell and threw it into it, and then gently handed the cup to Liu Li, who saw that Liu Li had already put the small snack in her mouth.

There is one more person full of resentment, and Liu Li only feels helpless in the face of Retia's small revenge, but fortunately, this girl still remembers to prepare a large glass of water, so that Liu Li's paralysis from the tip of her tongue to her whole face can be relieved a little. He didn't know what to make of the kind head of the academy's peculiar taste, whether it was before the time crossing or after coming to the continent of Oder, he had seen someone with such a preference for "spicy".

......

Letia finally left, and before leaving, she carefully whispered to Liu Li not to eat anything given by Principal Maggie, and then retreated under the meaningful gaze of the kind old woman.

"Okay, little girl is also gone, let's talk about business, the situation on the Sea Clan's side is not very good, and you came a little later than I expected. The head of the Maggie Academy sat quietly opposite Liu Li, with her hands folded on her knees, although she was smiling, she showed a kind of momentum that was not angry but powerful, hidden and hidden.

"Sure enough, you know the problems of the Sea Clan. Liu Li secretly said that it was true, but at this time he had to explain. Looking at the attitude of the dean, it seems that he is dissatisfied with his tardiness, "I encountered an attack on the way, and I delayed for a while, and it took a lot of time to adjust my state. ”

"Don't be so nervous, I don't mean to blame you, and you're not late, although you are nervous over there, you can still hold on for a while. Maggie's momentum is accustomed to nature, not aimed at Liu Li, "It's just that you're just having some trouble now, the last teleportation circle leading to the Sea Clan realm was closed half a month ago, and now if you want to go to the sea abyss, there is no second way to choose except to go to sea." ”

"Over there...... Is it troublesome?" The magic circle between the Sea Clan and the Pearl Academy was already closed to Liu Li's surprise, but if you think about it carefully, it makes sense, even if the relationship between the Sea Clan and the Huangyu Empire is close, at this time, you should avoid more incidents, and this kind of thing is that the crack in the closed space, except for the controller of the color element rune, others basically can't give any substantial help.

"It's okay, you can stay here for a while, I'll make the library completely open to you, and you can also look up information about the Sea Clan at will. Head Maggie said slowly, but the decision was decisive. Putting a magic academy's collection on display to outsiders would not be able to make such a decision even if it was the head of the academy, "Of course, in line with the principle of equivalent exchange prevailing among spellcasters, you'd better leave something here as well, and I'll be able to explain it to the others." ”

......

"Oh no!" Zoe, who woke up from his sleep, suddenly remembered what he had forgotten, and was just about to get up to finish the long-overdue date, when suddenly he fell down again in the dark, and he was still far from being back to a state where he was free to move.

"Hmph, it's hard for you to remember. "Pushing the door in, it was Letia who had just escaped from the Master of the Academy's Mage Tower. Although the girl complained, the concern in her eyes was undisguised. She was supposed to return home and inform her elders of Liu Li's needs, but she never let go of her sweetheart. After talking to Liu Li all the way before, I learned that Zorn's meditation space had been shaken, which was already an extremely serious problem for the spellcaster.

"Retia, why are you here?"

"Let's see if you guys are dead, and you actually let me pigeon...... Don't worry, I've met Liu Li, and he told me everything about you. He also personally took him to the head of the academy. Thinking of this, Retia sneered, "I'm sure the hospitable Lord Maggie will keep that kid for dinner, I just want him to ...... Well, he'd better be blessed. ”
