Chapter Twenty-Five: The Genius Magician
Although the academy tried its best to block the news of Alex's assassination, it still caused a lot of uproar in the city. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 As soon as I went out on the street, all I heard was talk about it.
"Did you hear that? Lord Alex's assassination seems to have something to do with one of his bodyguards!"
"No, no, it's obviously a young magician, and this magician disappeared after the incident!"
"You're not right, there's a monster trying to kill Lord Alex!"
......
Countless opinions were flying all over the sky, and Lin Ye and Amy were not very annoyed to listen, but they couldn't say anything. Hela has classes every morning, and there are only a few days of free time in the afternoon, Lin Ye and Amy have not passed the talent test, the academy does not teach them anything at all, even if he goes to Teacher Ai Wen twice, it is useless, Teacher Ai Wen just tells them, "Wait!"
Originally, they wanted to ask about the details of Hela's talent test, but Hela still only told them that it was divided into three stages, and didn't mention anything else, saying that it was for their good, which made the two confused. Rather than stay bored in the academy, the two decided that it would be better to go to the city to find out more about the situation, and then go outside the city to hunt a few beasts for money to buy swords, after all, their iron swords were lost in the underground square of Nightrain Town. Although they will soon learn magic, they still have a soft spot for swords.
The hunt went well, and the two caught two bucks in a trap, and then took them off to the slaughterhouse with a wooden cart borrowed from the academy and sold them for a few gold coins. Lin Ye flipped the money bag in his hand, the heavy feeling made him feel very comfortable, and the two of them quickly ran to the blacksmith shop to buy a long sword.
In the city of Morin Academy, few people come to buy metal weapons, so there are only a few cold weapons on display in the blacksmith shop, and even if they can't be sold, there is no dust on the weapons, and it can be seen that the shopkeeper cherishes these things he has made. Lin Ye and Amy bought a long sword made of fine iron and a dagger, but there were still two gold coins left, and it was estimated that Quan Yan'an was selling weapons so cheaply here.
Amy simply waved the long sword in her hand, very satisfied, "Big brother, let's go back, Hela said that in order to thank us for helping her solve the problem of practicing archery, she wants to treat us to delicious food." ”
Lin Ye looked up at the drowsy sunset and nodded. The blacksmith isn't too far from the inside of the academy, but it still takes a little time to walk. So, the two started to run wild in order to get food early. Because Teacher Ai Wen had said hello, the guards guarding the inner door did not stop the two people who were running, but they still glared at them. The two carefully left the purchased weapons in their lodgings and hurried to Hela. Hela lives in a two-story house on the north side of the academy, where more than thirty female students live at the same time. Lin Ye and Amy earned money at the door of the house for a long time, but they didn't see Hela's figure, and they wanted to knock on the door but they couldn't get it.
"What are you doing here?" shouted a girl who looked to be older than Lin Ye, wearing a white magic robe and long black hair, standing in the distance.
"We're here to find someone. Lin Ye explained.
The girl waited for the two of them with a wary face, "Looking for someone, are you here to harass people! You are not wearing magic robes, which means that you are not even a magic apprentice, how did you get in?"
"We're going to take the talent test in a few days, and soon we'll be apprentices in magic. Amy saw that the girl's tone of voice was not quite right, and her voice became quieter.
"You're so confident that you've passed the talent test, and your excuses don't make me feel like a good person, so I'd better arrest you first. The girl then pulled out a wand from her robe.
"Don't do it casually, we're really just here to find someone. Lin Ye stretched out his palms and gestured at the girl a few times, trying to calm her down.
But soon he knew it was futile, and the girl's lips twitched a few times, and a head-sized hockey ball slammed into her chest. Lin Ye didn't have time to dodge, and was hit by the ice ball and flew out. Lin Ye looked surprised, when he fought with that Ulysses, the magic didn't start so quickly, right? In his memory, it seemed that after reciting the spell, he had to recite a passage in the lingua franca before releasing the magic, but this girl didn't recite it at all!
As soon as Lin Ye wanted to get up, vines came out of the ground and tied him up, and Amy ran over and pulled those vines to rescue Lin Ye, but he was also tied up.
"Tell me what the hell you're here for?" said the girl, crossing her arms.
Lin Ye and Amy looked at each other and didn't dare to speak casually, anyway, she didn't believe it, how would she be treated if she didn't get it.
"Who are you?" Hela finally returned.
Seeing Hela, Lin Ye and the others were very excited, much like shouting that a savior was coming.
The girl turned to look at Hela and laughed, "It's been a long time since Hela." ”
Hela's eyes widened, "Kiriel, why are you here, didn't you say you're going to spend some time with your father in Quiet City?"
Qilier shrugged her shoulders, "Yes, but your father sent a message from a pigeon, and I asked me to supervise your magic studies, and I can't help it." ”
Hela slapped her forehead, "You are the person my father sent to supervise me for a long time, and you have worried me for a long time." ”
The more the two of them chatted, the happier they became, completely ignoring the existence of Lin Ye and the others.
"Since you know each other, can you let me and my eldest brother go before talking. Amy said with a sad face.
Hearing Amy's voice, Hela remembered the two who were tied to the ground, and hurriedly explained to Qi Lier that the two were his friends, and Qi Lier quickly let the two go.
"I'm sorry, but I'm also to blame for yourself, who made you look suspicious. Qilier said.
Lin Ye and Amy were speechless for a while, what they hoped for in the female student's place of residence just now did look suspicious......
"Okay, don't you know each other, go to the two of them's residence, I'll make you something to eat. Hela said round.
Hela's dinner was hearty, with carrots, onions and potatoes floating in a steaming beef broth, tantalizing dripping from the crispy golden skin of the scallion-scented roast chicken, irresistible aroma of charred garlic pork ribs, and some smoked sausages on the side.
The smell of the food in front of them touched the taste buds of several people, and the unpleasantness just now was replaced by the overflow of gravy between the lips and teeth.
Hela's cooking skills amazed several people, and according to Hela, she even asked Grace for advice, and after a long time of practice, she was not much worse than Grace. However, while Hela has to practice archery, as well as learn magic and alchemy, it is amazing that she can take her cooking skills to such a high level. Perhaps, this is the power of preference.
"Qili'er, I'm curious why you cast your magic so quickly, and you didn't say anything about that conversation in the lingua franca. Lin Ye couldn't help but ask. Knowing these is good for learning magic later or fighting against magicians.
Qi Li'er stopped waving her knife and fork, "Those words spoken in the lingua franca can increase the power of magic, according to the academy teacher, I seem to be born with a special constitution, even if I don't say those magic, I can get the same increase." ”
"That's not all, Qili'er is the youngest junior magician in the academy's history, and I'm only a trainee magician. Looking at Lin Ye's surprised face, Hela smiled.
At this time, Lin Ye noticed the blue-background badge on Qi Li'er's robe, which was inlaid with a gold star. Magic apprentices and apprentice magicians have no badges, magicians have badges with a red background, magicians have badges with a blue background, magicians to great magicians have a black background, and the number of stars inlaid with the level increases gradually, and there are no more than three stars for each level, these are all things that Lin Ye just learned in the city.
