Chapter 19: After the War

"Strange?" Joss was curious: "What's wrong?" So a little wizard, it must not be able to defend everything, it is normal to miss a few to come in, and some people die on the road every year. ”

Roman shook his head and said, "No, I don't mean this, the wizards must know that there is not much witchcraft energy left here, and it can't stop the Eater Beast at all, but they still choose this place as a camp......"

Speaking of this, Roman paused: "It's like ......"

William continued his words, "It's as if it was premeditated to gather us and send them to the Eater to besiege!" ”

The atmosphere was silent.

At this time, Ganon on the side said disdainfully: "A group of lonely hillbillies, don't you know...... This is the tradition of the Flesh Opera! ”

William's blood was strong, and he immediately glared angrily, and Joss frowned unhappily, if it weren't for the restraint of the Eye of Judgment, several people would probably have to fight again.

Only Roman smiled and said:

"We've just stepped into the wizarding world, and there's still a lot we don't understand, so if you don't mind, you might as well explain it to us."

Seeing Roman's very different reaction, Ganon nodded appreciatively:

"You are very good, you are not dominated by useless emotions, and it is a valuable quality to keep the purpose in mind at all times and maximize the benefits."

Then he lit a cigarette and said slowly, "The Flesh Opera mainly trains battle wizards, and the members are good at surviving and fighting in the Manna District, so it is especially important to overcome the fear of the Eater of Extremes. ”

At this time, Roman asked suspiciously, "Are you saying that this Extreme Devourer attack was used by the academy to train our courage?" But even so, the casualties are too heavy! ”

Ganon spread his hands, his face full of helplessness: "Originally, the Pole Eater would be blocked out of the defense line, and even if there were casualties, it would not be too bad, but there was an accident in the middle, and at the same time as the Pole Eater appeared, there was a riot in the camp and killed each other. ”

"Riot?" William was surprised: "Don't those wizards care? ”

"Of course! On the way here, more than half of the freshmen in charge of several wizards had been killed or wounded, and they were worried about lowering the mission evaluation, so they left the front line without permission and returned to the rear to suppress.

This departure caused a hole in the defense line and let the Eater of Extremes inside......"

William was speechless for a while: "It's really selfish to sweep the snow in front of the door and completely ignore the overall situation." ”

Ganon continued: "The main reason is that there is no high-level wizard to command, and after the high-level wizard parachuted in to command, the situation immediately stabilized......"

At the same time, it was gradually quiet outside the cave, and William proposed, "There is less movement outside, can we go out?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Joss immediately agreed, the cave was too dirty, and she didn't want to stay any longer.

Roman objected, unsure if it was safe outside, and although the roar of the Eater was gone, the sound of witchcraft explosions was still there, proving that the battle was not over and it was still unsafe.

At this time, Ganon added: "The mentor has added tracking witchcraft to me, and if it is safe outside, he will come to me......"

"It's nice to have a thigh hug." The thought flashed through William's minds at the same time.

As soon as he finished speaking, a voice sounded outside the cave: "Ganon, are you inside?" Come out, it's safe outside. ”

Outside the cave, the smoke was thick with signs of witchcraft explosions and cleaned up corpses, and the apprentices shook their heads and sighed as they took notes.

The casualties this time are really heavy, and it is not difficult to speculate that this year's freshmen are definitely far less than in previous years, so the college decided to stop land transportation and use airships to fly the freshmen to the college.

William and the others looked up at the huge airship and let out a burst of exclamations, sighing at the magic of the wizard's might.

Only Roman's face was calm, after all, he had received the baptism of earth technology, and his vision was naturally higher than that of medieval nobles like William, so he focused on another matter.

"Chip, scan survivors' faces, compare pre-disaster records......"

"Ding! Task established, start scanning ......"

"After the scan, the number of new students in existence is about 40% of the pre-disaster level, and the third-level apprentices are about 90% of the pre-disaster level, and the scan found Colin's body ......"

"Jin is only three percent left! It's tragic! Even the third-level apprentices were killed or wounded! And Colin is also dead, so the conspiracy against me will also be dissipated with the wind! ”

This result made Roman feel refreshed, which meant that in the future, the number of competitors in the academy would be greatly reduced, and the resources he would get would be greatly increased.

William also noticed this, and smiled meaningfully: "This time, thanks to Roman, we were able to arrange in advance, escape the catastrophe, and reap the dividends after the disaster." ”

On the side, Qiao Si joked with a smile: "It's just this qualification, how much you actually get depends on the wizard qualification!" ”

William said nonchalantly: "You and I are both fourth-class qualifications, as long as you don't go to the roll with Canon, the cake you will get in the end is indispensable, Roman...... What are your qualifications? ”

"Third class." Roman touched his nose, deliberately looking a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "I hope you will take care of it in the future." ”

William laughed and said: "Don't be discouraged, in fact, the third-class qualification is not bad, at least better than the first and second class, if you have something in the future, just look for me." ”

Josie's eyes burned and she licked her pink lips: "This is my room number, come and play with my sister when I have time~"

Under the conditioning of the chip, Roman's appearance has skyrocketed, his eyebrows and eyes are delicate and fair, and the wisdom and ruthlessness he shows have an inexplicable attraction to girls.

Whether it's for a momentary pleasure or a future investment, Joss is more than happy to roll with Roman.

The three of them got the keys to their respective rooms and went their separate ways, and this brief friendship came to an end for the time being.

Roman smiled and agreed to Josie's invitation, but turned around and forgot that the Avenue of Truth was full of dangers, who knows what Joss had in mind, and it was really unwise to take risks for the sake of coolness.

And there is slavery in this world, so if you really want that, wouldn't slaves be safer?

Roman opened the door, the room was small, the size of a sleeper car similar to the Earth Train, a bed against the wall, a table next to the bed, and a toilet next to the door, although it was simple, Roman was very satisfied.

Because I learned from Gannon's mouth that originally this kind of room was only for freshmen with fourth-class and above qualifications, Roman could only live in a two-person room with a third-class qualification, and the first- and second-class lived in a Chase shop and lived a collective life.

This is the benefit of population reduction, there are fewer people, there are more survival resources, there is less involution, the quality of life is improved, there are fewer contradictions, and interpersonal relationships are harmonious.

Just as Roman was thinking about what to do next, the radio inside the airship sounded: "It's dinner time, passengers who need to eat can go to the restaurant to eat......"

There was a rumbling sound in his stomach, and Roman realized that he hadn't eaten for almost a day, and that he had relied on adrenaline to ignore hunger, but now that the danger had receded, hunger was pouring in.

"It's time to eat...... Otherwise, you will starve to death! Roman got up and walked over to the dining room.

The restaurant, which can accommodate hundreds of people, is sitting sparsely with dozens of people at the moment, chopping large pieces of their own food, and in the buffet area on the side, people are constantly adding food.

The food was good, the roast chicken and duck steaks were enough, and finally there was a delicious mushroom soup, and after Roman had a full meal, the radio sounded again:

"The airship has arrived at its destination, all new students, please pack up your personal belongings, leave in an orderly manner, and go through the enrollment procedures......"
