Chapter 286: Attacked Halfway

The so-called school anniversary is the anniversary of the establishment of the Emerald Tower. On that day, the wizards of the Academy, whether full wizards or apprentices, celebrate the day in their own way.

As for the ball, it is not a literal dance, but a "hunting game" that belongs to a formal wizard.

Like the school anniversary, the prom is held once a year, and although the content is different each time, the pattern is basically the same. When the ball is held, all participants will be sent to a secret realm, and what they get in the secret realm depends on their personal creation.

Some people don't get anything, and some people get the inheritance of ancient wizards in the secret realm, so it can be said that according to everyone's different circumstances, the treatment is one in the sky and one underground.

Jiang Feng learned all this common sense from the bookshelves of the public library. Documents on the history of the Emerald Tower fill an entire shelf. Fortunately, this knowledge can be viewed without paying a fee, otherwise it would be a considerable expense to read the history of the Emerald Tower.

While everyone can participate in the school celebration, not everyone can attend the dance. If you want to participate in the prom, in addition to the recommendation of the instructor, you also need to have at least two stars or more.

Roland Doyle hopes that in this way, he will motivate Jiang Feng to improve his strength. As for whether Jiang Feng could really break through the bottleneck and become a two-star wizard within two months, to be honest, Roland Doyle didn't have much expectations.

After all, meditation is not an overnight thing, Jiang Feng has only been getting the Advanced Meditation Method from Mrs. Florence for just a week, and Roland Doyle himself has inquired with Mrs. Florence, with Jiang Feng's current cultivation, it will take several years to advance to a two-star wizard.

Of course, this is only a theoretical situation.

Roland Doyle ignored the fact that Elixir such as Camilla's Call can accelerate the condensation of spiritual power entities, and the Soul Shadow, which is stronger than Camilla's Call, is even more effective in this regard.

After expressing his gratitude to Mr. Roland Doyle, Jiang Feng simply took this opportunity to take a two-month long vacation on the pretext of retreat and meditation.

Satisfied to see that his most promising student listened to his words, Roland Doyle happily approved the long vacation.

……

That night, Jiang Feng arrived at the activity room of the Brotherhood of Firefire as promised, and after discussing with Helis, he locked two B-level bounties.

[Bounty target: Greg.] Brief Introduction: According to the clue, it is located in the secret realm of number A06, the minister of the Puglai Kingdom, a researcher suspected of defecting from the Emerald Tower, with the strength of a one-star wizard and proficient in cursed witchcraft. Reward: 500 magic stones, 200 contribution points. 】

[Reward Goal: Solve the problem of negative energy pollution in the eastern mountains of the Blackwater Kingdom.] Intelligence: Suspected to be caused by wild wizard experiments. Reward: 700 magic stones, 200 contribution points. 】

"Counting the 135 contribution points I have now, and completing these two tasks, I can just make up 500 contribution points, can you make it to two months later?" Jiang Feng asked.

"It's only two months, and it's not a big problem." Helis said lightly.

It's not that Helis is strong, the wizard's own resistance to toxins and curses far exceeds that of ordinary people, and the snake venom of the Homan python belongs to the type of slow venom, with her own resistance and purification potion, it is not a big problem to control the speed of the spread of toxins in the body, even if it is two years, it can be persevered.

However, if it is really delayed for two years and no effective treatment has been carried out, I am afraid that new problems will arise.

"I'll be back here in two months, three months at the latest...... I need ten purification potions of more than 80 quality, and after you have finished preparing them, I will set off immediately. Haylis said.

"One day is enough, do you need anything else?" Jiang Feng asked.

"No need, if you have that time, just help me prepare a few more bottles of purification potion." Haylis spoke.

"Alright, I'll have Hanlot bring it to you tomorrow."

"Why not yourself?" Haylis raised her eyebrows slightly.

It's not that I'm worried about Jiang Feng escaping, it's just that I don't understand why he chose this time to go out. Wizards in the Potions Department are rarely far away from the Wizard Tower, especially wizards with only one-star strength.

"I'll go out tomorrow and take care of some personal matters...... Will be back in two months at most. Jiang Feng said.

“…… That's fine. Helis nodded, "I hope to see you next time I come back." ”

"Don't worry, I'm not going to do anything dangerous." Jiang Feng smiled faintly and continued, "It's you, don't wait for me to come back, but I heard the news that you are dead." ”

"Hmph."

With a cold snort through her nose, Haylis left her long navy blue hair behind her and turned away.

……

Not long after Helis left, Jiang Feng and the chef exchanged their cooking tips on dragon meat, and then left the activity room and returned to the dormitory to simply pack their luggage.

There weren't many things to bring, only a few changed wizard robes, such as the laboratory table and the materials needed to prepare potions, Jiang Feng usually put them in the space ring.

The purification potion that Haylis needed had been given to Hanlot yesterday, and he would have given it to her when the time came.

After confirming that nothing had fallen, Jiang Feng left the dormitory, and when he went to the teleportation array on the floor, he happened to meet an acquaintance.

"Colf?"

After being stopped by Jiang Feng, the boy in the apprentice's uniform was taken aback, his expression was obviously a little nervous, but he quickly regained his composure, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Mr. Jiang, Mr. Jiang Feng, hello."

"This is the researcher's dormitory floor, what are you doing here?" Jiang Feng glanced at him a little strangely.

"Mr. Hearst asked me to come here to talk to his researcher." Colf said nervously.

Jiang Feng nodded, although he was very curious why he lied to himself, but he didn't ask too much.

The academy doesn't rule that apprentices can't enter the floor where the researcher's quarters are located, and even if he has any secrets, he doesn't bother to bother with them.

Standing on the teleportation array on the floor, Jiang Feng pressed his hand on the magic stone and silently recited the activated spell.

The white light flickered, and in the next moment, he had appeared at the main entrance on the first floor of the Emerald Tower.

Although the world inside the tower is different from the outside of the tower and belongs to a place similar to subspace, the time is adjusted to be synchronized.

Crossing the stone bridge, Jiang Feng stopped a carriage and casually threw a few silver coins in the coachman's hand.

"Go to the suburban villa area."

The old gentleman, who looked to be about fifty or sixty years old, took off his hat and saluted slightly, and put the silver coins in his pocket.

"Yes, sir."

It's half an hour from the center of the town to the suburbs, and it's not a small town to say it's a small town.

The carriage was swaying on the gravel road, and Jiang Feng, who was sitting in the carriage, originally planned to take a nap, but at this moment, the reminder sound of Zhi Brain suddenly sounded in his mind.

【Warning! Unknown psychic energy is detected! 】

The alarm in his heart suddenly rose, dispelling the sleepiness, Jiang Feng quickly sat up straight, and at the same time, he sensed a spiritual force that was tentatively approaching him.

Lifting the curtain of the carriage, Jiang Feng asked in a deep voice to the coachman who was driving the carriage.

"How long is it left?"

No response!

At some point, a mist began to rise on the trail.

From that mist, Jiang Feng felt a terrifying spiritual energy surrounding him like a tide.

【Warning! Negative psychic energy is detected, and the danger factor exceeds the safe value, and the user is advised to leave the area immediately. 】

This time, the reminder tone of Zhi Brain turned into an orange warning pop-up.

Not daring to hesitate, Jiang Feng immediately jumped out of the carriage. Almost at the same time, the coachman in the carriage let out a howl of rage. The black gas mixed with death wrapped around the horse under his crotch, and the black tuxedo hugged into a cloud of black mist, only to see that from the black mist, he pulled out a three-meter-long scythe......
