Chapter 123: The Verge

An explosion?

Marlena, who was writing something in a classroom in the teaching building of the comprehensive department, heard this sound that happened in the mountains not far away, stopped the pen in her hand, raised her head, and looked out the window.

Also noticing the anomaly were seven other students in the classroom. There are only nine students in the comprehensive department of this year, and there are only nine desks and chairs in the classroom, and the empty one belongs to Kelsey, who has participated in the combat practice class and has not yet returned.

The teacher on the podium did not raise his head, looked at the book in his hand, and whispered, "Don't be distracted by external objects." ”

Since the teachers have said so, the students have no choice but to retract and continue to do their own things.

However, in Marina's heart, she was faintly worried.

Is it my delusion?

In the mountains, less than a kilometer away from the teaching building of the comprehensive department, Ellie covered her right arm and looked at the gray-robed old man in front of her in shock.

This gray-robed old man, who was still amiable just now, didn't know why, as he walked, he suddenly turned his face, and a fireball hit Ellie's back, but fortunately, Ellie reacted in time and flashed a position to the side, which caused his arm to be injured.

"What are you doing?" said Ellie, with obvious anger.

Because yesterday the teacher specially told him that someone from the Imperial Education Bureau would come to the academy today, Ellie guessed that the old man was probably a member of the inspection team. The teacher also said that if you want to behave better, if you can't add glory to the college, at least don't discredit the college.

So Ellie happily agreed to help the old man find his lost briefcase on the mountain.

As for why she went up the mountain, why she didn't have anyone else with her, why she didn't find a teacher or staff, why she asked her as a student to help with these obvious problems, Ellie didn't even think too much about it. The amiable appearance of the old man just now was also completely different from the cold and fierce face now.

The pain in her right arm made Ellie understand at once that the quality of a person cannot be based only on appearance.

This truth, along the way, Su Wen also educated her through various events, but when things really came to her, she really understood.

Careless......

Because of her extremely keen perception, Ellie has almost developed a dependence on this perception. The old man in front of him, the malice he hidden, completely deceived Ellie's perception.

This gray-robed old man is the nominal leader of this expedition, Eden in Edgar's mouth. Those who can be commensurate with Edgar's peers are naturally not idle. At least, Ellie was on him, sensing the danger.

"I've seen a lot of monsters that have infiltrated human society, but it's the first one like you who dares to sneak into the Imperial Academy, and your courage is commendable! Edgar, when did you become so relaxed?" Eden didn't work with a fireball, and he wasn't in a hurry, but asked Ellie, "What are you? Blood Seed? Eyes don't look like that...... Judging by your skin, is it a succubus? But what about your tail?"

This person has seen through his own physique!

I see...... Ellie, as if she had been empowered, instantly understood the old man's intentions.

Seeing that Ellie didn't speak, Eden sighed and said to himself: "Little guy, don't resist, although I just want to arrest you, but if something happens, I can't guarantee your life." ”

As he spoke, Eden stood in place, revealing his diamond-level momentum. At the same time, a seemingly nonexistent magic also enveloped Ellie.

Looking at Eden's appearance, it was obvious that he didn't plan to give himself a chance to escape.

Ellie gritted her teeth and tore off the sleeve of her right arm, which had been burned with a hole, and then a string of nails formed on the burned skin.

"Oh, and that ability?" Eden squinted, curious as he watched Ellie's healing process. Ellie's behavior made it impossible for Eden to tell what kind of monster she was incarnated.

Curiosity is curiosity, Eden's hand did not stop casting.

Eden guided the magic power and unfolded circle after circle of magic circles under his feet, and each magic array was accompanied by a surge of magic power. On his body, he also began to superimpose layers of spell effects.

Compared with the control skills of students around the gold level, Eden's diamond-level technique is much more sophisticated. These spell effects are all persistent spells that can attack autonomously, somewhat similar to Ballot's levitating fireball, but the power and complexity are several steps higher.

If the students were soldiers with rifles, Eden was a large mech with automatic machine guns all over his body.

Eden just raised his hand slightly, and nearly a hundred magic bullets were instantly generated, and then flew towards Ellie. These mana projectiles weaved together into a dense web of firepower, blocking almost every direction of Ellie, locking her in completely.

Dangerous!

Ellie's cyan pupils contracted instantly, and under the guidance of instinct, she immediately jumped backwards with the force under her feet. The huge foot force stepped on a crack in the dirt, and this crack was immediately bombarded into a mess by the influx of magic projectiles.

Ellie, on the other hand, was also deeply attacked by several magic bullets.

Fortunately, these magic bullets were not very powerful, but they only made Ellie feel some pain. If there is any impact, it is that the little skirt on Ellie's body has also been torn by these magic bullets.

However, Ellie is already covered with about half of the exoskeleton, so she is not gone.

Eden's attack is not a wave of barrage and it is gone.

Before Ellie landed, the second wave of magic bullet barrage had already been launched, and the landing point was also predicted where Ellie landed.

Ellie couldn't change direction in the air, so she could only roll over, and when she landed, her left arm propped up on the ground, and she bounced away again by inertia.

Even though the speed was already very fast, it was still attacked by a few magic bullets.

It's not a solution! You have to find a chance to fight back!

Eden walked forward, and the continuous spells on his body were constantly releasing magic missiles, and it seemed that there was some sense of leisurely strolling in it.

This Eden, it seems, doesn't take Ellie seriously at all.

That's right, with his diamond-level strength level, what kind of monster has he never seen? What's more, Ellie still maintains his human body, and for him, there is nothing to be afraid of.

In his cognition, the monsters that did not reveal the prototype could only exert half of their power at most.

However, Ellie is different, she is not a monster.

She is a human resurrected from Su Wen's forbidden spell-level magic and using the body of the cave worm as a material!

It's human!

All along, Su Wen has instilled this belief in Ellie. Because of this, Ellie has grown from inferiority and helplessness at the beginning to her current firmness.

Can a diamond-level powerhouse do whatever he wants and beat people casually?

Ellie doesn't agree!

Taking advantage of the gap between the weak magic bullets, Ellie completely stood still after landing on the ground, and was injured by more than a dozen magic bullets, and then began to prepare for a counterattack.

Seeing that Ellie was no longer dodging, Eden stopped releasing the magic projectile. Then, with a gust of wind, it blew away the dust raised by the explosion of the magic bomb.

When the smoke cleared, Eden looked surprised.

For in front of him stood no longer the maiden from before, but a black knight covered in armor, and behind the helmet hung a flaxen-colored ponytail.
