"So...... You have accepted a blood oath of revenge. ”

"Yes. Xia Kucao raised her eyes a little apprehensively and peeked at Du Zhong in front of her, but she hurriedly lowered her head honestly because she happened to meet the other party's inquiring eyes.

The reason why Xia Kucao was worried was not because he accepted the blood oath of revenge - Du Zhong's words were still in his ears, since he represented the academy at that moment, Xia Kucao could only win and not lose, and he couldn't even lose, and naturally he couldn't escape, so he had to accept the other party's conditions at that time.

It's just that he was too nervous about the time for the duel after that - if Bai Li's preparation time was only one or two days, then even if he was embarrassed, life was always above all else, and he would never accept the other party's conditions.

Because of this, he completely failed to pay attention to the duel location requested by the other party.

But now that he was recounting this experience, he naturally realized that there was something wrong with the duel that the other party had asked for—on the first day of school at the Jifen King Seal Master Academy, in front of all the academy teachers and students, and even the big people who came to watch the ceremony from all over the continent, completely defeated and even killed a Seal Master Academy student in the Great Hall?

If this were the case, the consequences would have been devastating - the face of the academy would have been swept into the trash like fallen leaves in the autumn wind, and the personal life and death of Prunella vulgaris would have been a trivial matter in comparison.

So Xia Kucao was a little uneasy - his family knew his own affairs, and he couldn't know how much he had. And since the other party dared to propose a fight, he must have the certainty of victory, so he was worried about his own life and the reputation of the academy at the same time, he couldn't help but have some doubts - what kind of grudge was there between this Jifen King Seal Master Academy and the Marquis of Elbeta, and the other party would use himself to set up such a ruthless situation?

It's just that now that the situation has been set, even if the dean of the academy comes forward now and forcibly cancels the duel, I'm afraid it won't erase the evaluation of the academy's students' cowardice, and it will also cause immeasurable damage to the academy's reputation.

"Since the development of the situation, I am afraid that it is no longer within the 'scope of adjustment' in the mouth of Vice President Du......

Perhaps hearing the soft whisper of the prunella grass, Du Zhong frowned in great displeasure and reprimanded, "Now you, do you have time to think about anything other than a duel?"

Immediately, a touch of pride flashed on his face: "I, the Giffin Seal Master Academy, can stand in the long river of history for thousands of years, how can I be helpless with the current small predicament, the affairs at the academy level are up to me and the rest of the vice deans to deal with, you just need to try your best to save your life in the duel in a month." And—"

Du Zhong looked at Prunella vulgaris with great seriousness, "You were originally one of their important targets. ”

"Me?" Xia Wither smiled and pointed to her nose, "I'm a little person?"

"Maybe you still can't change your mind, but since you killed that blue-blooded nobleman, you're no longer a small person. Du Zhong said categorically: "No little person dares to kill a blue-blooded nobleman, and no little person has the ability to kill a blue-blooded nobleman. ”

After a pause, Du Zhong spoke again: "What's more, do you remember what I said to you before?"

"You mean," Xia Wither recalled with a frown, "the other party doesn't really plan to take me away from the Sealer Academy?"

"Yes," Du Zhong replied in a deep voice, "Now that I think about it, the reason why the other party didn't send a stronger lineup to take you away was not because they took pity on your life, nor because they didn't rush to drag you directly to Bai Alum's grave, but because they needed your identity as a student of the Sealer Academy." ”

"But beyond that, you must have something about them that they're interested in. ”

Du Zhong's inquiring gaze looked at it again, and Prunella also remembered the book that had been sealed in her body again for the first time.

"Something they're interested in...... It must not be separated by conventional means, and even you must obtain your cooperation to get it, although you can also obtain your cooperation by using coercive means, but perhaps because the risk is too great, they have chosen another method...... That is, that thing has to do with combat, and for the Sealer, there's only one thing related to combat. The inquiry in Du Zhong's eyes gradually turned to it, and he slowly spit out four words from his mouth: "The Book of Seals." ”

The Book of Seals is a strange book that is rumored to be a God-given book on this continent, and people on the continent will go through the stage of 'unsealing' to awaken the Book of Seals in the age group of 4-10 years old.

The Book of Seals has a strong specificity and exclusivity, although everyone has it, but it is completely incompatible, and can only control the one that belongs to oneself and cannot seize the book of others, and once the individual who is the owner dies, the book of the seal that belongs to him will disappear forever, and there is no possibility of recurrence.

"I remember—" Du Zhong suddenly spoke: "You are the blue-blooded nobleman who killed with the means of the sealer, but you are not actually a sealer, and you don't even know how to take the book back into your body, but you have the ability to kill the blue-blooded nobleman easily, and then you even took the sealing book to swagger through the city, all the way from the west of the city to the north of the city." ”

"One of them was ridden on a horse...... "Prunella grass added weakly on the side.

Du Zhong ignored it, and just continued his analysis, "Then there is only one possibility, the book in your hand...... It's not your average Book of Seals, it's a Forbidden Book that can be inherited and has a magical card in it. ”

Speaking of this, Du Zhong looked at Prunella with an extremely complicated gaze, sighed and said, "No wonder the dean will protect you. ”

Xia Kucao didn't care that the vice dean in front of him guessed his secret, after all, the other two deans had already known about it, but they couldn't inform it in time out of laziness of their personalities, but Du Zhong's knowledge was originally a matter of time.

So Prunella vulgaris's thoughts continued along with Eucommia's thoughts.

"However, Vice Dean Du, you know that I am not a sealer to guess that the Book of Seals in my hand is a forbidden book, but I am a person from the Marquis of Alberta's Mansion...... How do you know that?"

"Because of Bai Ziren. Du Zhong looked away from his complicated gaze and said in a low voice, "The Holy See of Divine Radiance should be the place that knows the most about the forbidden canon outside of this academy, and everyone in the Holy See is required to be proficient in the special magic fluctuations related to the forbidden canon. ”

"That Papal Knight may not have been aware that the Book of Seals floating next to you was the Forbidden Book at the beginning of his contact with you, but then you used his presumptuous and rash to restrain him at close range...... That's when he probably discovered that the Book of Seals in your hand was a forbidden book. ”

"Fortunately, you stunned him afterwards, and now that I think about it, his coma is not only your three punches and angry attacks, but also a little shocking factor. Du Zhong sighed, "Fortunately, another papal knight didn't recognize it as a forbidden canon, otherwise you would have been directly swept away by the Holy See if you couldn't get to the academy last night." ”

"As for the aftermath," Du Zhong continued, "Bai Ziren, who has awakened, immediately conveyed the news to the superior priest, and the appearance of a sealer holding a forbidden code in Jifen City naturally needs to be tracked down, this investigation ...... I found the Shimmer Tavern...... Gushan Dragon ...... And alum - no wonder your Uncle Long didn't even hold off for a day, I see. ”

"Since we have found out the death of a blue-blooded nobleman, then we naturally have to inform the Marquis's Mansion," Xia Kucao took over with an expressionless face, "After that, the two exchanged news and made a plan, just wait for dawn to come to the academy to find me." ”

"Yes, the Holy See wants to ban the canon, and the Marquis Mansion wants to damage the reputation of my academy. Du Zhong Huo Ran got up and said, "I will report this matter to the dean as soon as possible, since you are in a forbidden position, the duel in a month may not have no chance of winning - remember not to lose the face of the academy at that time." ”

Prunella, who had been placed on great expectations, was depressed at this time, and said helplessly: "But...... My Forbidden Codex...... It's been sealed by the dean again......"
