In the basement library of the National Academy, in front of a stone platform on the inside of the third floor, a vaguely recognizable shadow of a person stood there.

If there were anyone else here, you would be able to find that everything around you was clearly recognizable, but only on that "person", the light seemed to be distorted by a strange force. The entire body appears to be shrouded in a thin fog that cannot be fully seen, or it can be said to look like a humanoid mist.

Illusion, however, is obviously not an illusion that can create an invisibility effect, but a special kind of illusion that can erase its own existence from most detection magic...... It was more than enough to sneak into a library that was almost rarely visited and not so heavily defended.

“...... That's right, that's right...... That's it......"

On the third floor of the empty library where a pin drop could be heard, only the whisper of excitement echoed in the vague figure of a figure.

This time, the plan was a success!

For this thing, the master has carefully planned for a long time, and even spent a lot of money to invite the famous old thieves in the underground mercenary world to come to the academy today to make trouble and make rain as a target to attract the attention of the academy on the surface. It is estimated that the sage who has been in the academy for decades is currently fighting with the elder of the old thief group, and the rest of the mentors are probably also helping the students of the academy to clean up the mess.

Because all the way from the Elemental Tower to the secret passage that had been explored in advance, he had not encountered any decent obstacles, and the figure was already full of confidence in his heart at this moment.

Sure enough, the national fortune of the Loris Kingdom is still favored by its own master, although the master has been suppressed by the opponent since the failure of the plan two years ago, but as long as he successfully gets the thing in front of him, the master has the hope of turning the tables, no, it is a guarantee that he can definitely turn the tables.

“...... Got it, "Tafel's Last Notes......

The peerless genius of Loris decades ago, the most gifted magician and wizard of a hundred years, the last research codex left behind by the sage Tafel Stoker after his death.

The Codex is best known for its information on the idea of the City Magic Circuit and all the theoretical information about the City Magic Circuit Network except for the central control core. Because of this, "Tafel's Last Notes" is known as the last and most amazing treasure left by the genius Tafel sage to posterity.

However, in fact, the value of this codex is far more than that, it is said that in this codex, Tafel Sage sorted out all the most important research experiences in his life, and even some of the content is not weaker than the urban magic circuit at all, but because the level of research is too high or the current level of magic technology is difficult to promote, it is not famous, so that most of the ordinary people who know Tafel's life only know the urban magic circuit and do not know about this other research.

The master behind the figure is one of the few people who understand the true value of this codex. It is precisely because of this that there is such a plan to repair the plank road and darken the warehouse, and now, the plan is about to succeed.

The figure slowly approached the stone platform and took out a broken magic stone from his bosom. This kind of magic prop that can only be learned and refined by at least five-star elite warlocks is quite convenient, as the name suggests, it can destroy any magic that is not high within the range of refiner's strength...... However, because it takes extremely energy and time to refine, the success rate is not high, and it is a one-time consumable, so it is an extremely precious magic item.

The magic breaking stone in the figure's hand was refined by a six-star arcanist, and it can be said that as long as the enchantment on the magic crystal on the stone platform was not set by the seven-star sage, then this stone was obviously enough to break through the crystal cover and allow the figure to successfully take the codex inside.

Just as the figure picked up the Broken Demon Stone and was about to smash it against the magic crystal cover, suddenly, a lazy voice sounded not far behind him.

“...... Ah, okay, okay, let's get to that...... Belch...... If that cover is smashed, I'll have to be scolded by Dean Pema. ”

The figure moved slightly, obviously completely unexpectedly that someone would suddenly appear here, but after only half a second of stunned, the figure didn't even turn around, and directly violently smashed the broken magic stone in his hand towards the crystal cover in front of him.

The sound of the crystal cover engraved with the magic guarding magic shattering did not sound, as if it was a dream, and the smashed magic stone smashed to the stone ground with a "bang", and the figure himself remained frozen in place in a posture of taking the thing in front of him and turning away, and the hand that was stretched out that was supposed to grasp the codex in the broken cover was empty, which looked weird and funny.

In the blink of an eye, he had already reached the entrance of the entire underground space outside the library from the third floor of the library, where he had snuck in.

The spatial magic "Shift" instantly moves the cast target to another coordinate location, and the magic level is ...... Advanced magic above, in other words - arcane.

"Hiccup...... That's why you smashed things so roughly, it's hard to do here, hey!"

The originally drunken voice behind the figure was talking, and suddenly raised its tone, and at the same time, the figure felt a chilling killing intent in his heart.

Call!

Several spatial cracking blades flew by, and in an instant, something seemed to be cut apart by the spatial cracking blades where the figure was originally located, and several large and small pieces of cloth were scattered out of thin air.

"Oh, it's a shame that it comes with a magic cloak that "dissipates breath", and it looks like this magic composition is at least an elite warlock's possession. ”

Behind the original figure, where the spatial crack blade came out, an uncle who was very unorthodox with a wine gourd in one hand stood there, looking at the cloth that was still faintly flashing with magical light on the ground, and his mouth was slurking.

"I didn't expect that I had been a senior instructor in the martial arts department of the academy for more than ten years, and I was a wind instructor who was known for his two-handed sword skills, and he was actually a genius who also practiced wind magic. ”

In front of Uncle Wine Gourd's side, a few steps away from the shredded magic cloak, one of the two instructors who was supposed to be the classroom support of the student council to help the students fight the thieves in the academy at this moment, the instructor of the martial arts department, Crazy Sword, was standing there. The face that has never been smiling in front of the students is now gritting his teeth and hating, the strong muscles on his arms are tense, and the master-level red fighting energy and cyan wind magic are wrapped around his arms, and they extend to the two-handed long swords that are clenched in both hands.

“...... Mentor Terry, why are you here?"

Uncle Terry shrugged.

"Why am I here? Because you're here. ”

Mad Sword looked at Terry with a resentful expression, but there was not much in his eyes that he had lost his mind because of anger, but instead showed a slight look of caution and calculation.

"Oh, Madsword Mentor, I don't want to say anything else at this point, we were sent by the dean, so come with us, if there is anything to explain to the dean, I still want to find a good store to drink some wine on the rare national holiday of the Alant Festival-"

Just when Terry seemed to be a little relaxed his vigilance, suddenly the mad sword moved, and with both hands waving the long sword, he directly slashed out three fighting qi slashes fused with wind blades, and slashed straight at Terry.

Terry's face was slightly surprised, but he didn't hesitate at all to directly activate the flash magic, flashing a few meters away from the side to dodge the blow.

"Storm of Blades!"

Taking advantage of Terry's gap to dodge the attack, the mad sword quickly stored the magic power and fighting energy needed to perform his stunt, and directly rolled up a violent whirlwind within a range of nearly seven or eight meters around his body, as if he would be ruthlessly slashed as long as he was slightly involved, and the momentum was not small.

Terry's drunkenness, who was forced to retreat by the storm of blades, almost dissipated, but he didn't panic too much.

"O demon spirit of the earth, please listen to my request!"

Pillars of earth continued to emerge from the ground, and then they were crushed into dust by the storm of blades of the Sword, but because there were so many pillars of earth, in just a few seconds, the originally colorless storm of blades was covered with a layer of dust yellow.

And at this moment, Terry, who was forced into the corner of the underground space, snapped his fingers, and suddenly a gravity-based magic array appeared at the feet of the mad sword and his blade storm.

A speck of dust becoming heavier did not pose any threat, but at this moment, the storm of the blade of the mad sword was mixed with countless dust produced by the crushing of the earth pillar just now, and in an instant, the sudden increase in gravity caused the dust that had been drifting with the wind to fall, and it actually caused the air flow of the impeccable blade storm to appear to be stranded for an instant.

And taking advantage of this air attack, a red fighting aura also emerged from Terry's body, and Terry's whole person was like a big bird, directly breaking through the storm of blades that had been disturbed and greatly reduced in power to the central position, and a fist wrapped the rock skin with magic and slammed it on the stomach of the mad sword who did not react.

"Ahem!"

The mad sword was directly bent by this blow, and the whole person flew out and hit the stone wall behind him fiercely.

The storm of blades dissipated, and Terry couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he glanced at the outer wall of the library not far away, which didn't seem to have received any violent impact.

But then, Terry frowned.

"Hey, stop!"

However, it was already a little late, and the mad sword didn't care about his injuries at all, and directly took out a scroll from his arms and tore it open, and his body was shrouded in the magical light of the space system.

"Crazy sword, don't look at me like this, I'm a space magician!"
