At this point, Roman reached a reconciliation with the forces behind him, the two sides stopped the temptation and hostilities, and Roman truly achieved his goal.

Through the curse, Roman created a non-existent backer in addition to killing and deterring, so that the mastermind behind the scenes was not worth it, so he came to reconcile.

And Roman also needed a stable environment to absorb the ancient inheritance, and had no intention of taking advantage of the victory to pursue and intensify the conflict, so he gladly accepted the magic crystal as an apology.

The magic crystal is not important, what matters is the attitude behind it.

After the commissioner left, the ship set sail again, and a new commander was sent from above, and after stabilizing the situation, the previous unrest was explained as follows:

The cultists manipulated the source of pollution and attacked the transport ship, and Bock was unfortunately mutated, and some of the apprentices went insane and attacked each other, resulting in a third of the deaths.

They are cultists again, and the students don't believe in it at all, but what can they do if they don't believe it, they are only a first-level combat force, and in the face of second-level suppression, they have to believe if they don't believe it.

Since it is a cult conspiracy and the team structure is still there, the expedition will naturally continue.

After a few more days, under the pressure of the new commander, the cadets returned to the old situation.

Gangs up with each other, three or five confidants talk and laugh, and it seems that the escape tragedy of a few days ago did not happen.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, it is normal, after all, the escape lasted for a short time, and it was still in the initial stage, so it was suppressed, there was no large-scale fighting, and it was still in the stage of mutual assassination.

At this time, even if the body is found, the murderer cannot be found for a while, and the people in power are not to blame in the past, so the survivors naturally treat it as nothing.

Roman was still alone, watching all this coldly, and Jarvis occasionally came over to talk, hoping to introduce some friends to Roman.

But Roman made it clear that he hated socializing, and Jarvis knew that Roman was withdrawn, so he gave up all kinds of connections and stopped bothering.

One day, the alarm sounded on the ship, and the students were excited, and according to the predetermined procedure, went to the deck***.

At this time, in the distance, stood a barren stone island, the island was strange rocks, bare and barren.

The students immediately understood that they had arrived at the battlefield, and on the desert island ahead, there were cultists.

At this time, the commander began to speak: "Ladies and gentlemen, no matter what twists and turns we have experienced before, but now, we all have a common goal, and that is to eliminate the cultists on the island!" ”

"That group of miscellaneous people slaughtered the four big islands, and stained their sabers red with the blood of our compatriots, so we must pay with blood!"

After an exciting speech, the morale of the wizards was slightly restored, and the commander once again emphasized the military merit reward, and then announced the start of the battle.

Since it is actual combat training for recruits, the enemy's strength will definitely not be too strong, Roman looked at the frigate, dozens of first-level wizards were full of firepower, pouring fire on the nameless island.

Every first-level wizard has the power of 203 naval guns, that is, the firepower of a frigate is equivalent to dozens of 203 naval guns.

This is already covered by quite ferocious firepower on the earth, and after clearing the beach, the artillery fire extends inland, and no trace of the enemy can be seen wherever the shells hit.

At this time, the students on the transport ship began to land, they lowered the landing craft and, under the control of witchcraft, rushed towards the beach.

Thanks to the cover of artillery fire, the advance party easily occupied the beach and consolidated the landing ground to meet the large forces that followed.

At this point, the academy troops took the beach without casualties and began the second phase of the operation.

The island is not large, and under the arrangement of the commander, the college wizards formed a skirmish line in small groups and advanced towards the center of the island.

The students are all first-class wizards, and the commander has accurately calculated the detection distance to achieve a dragnet search on the desert island, ensuring that no cultists are missed.

This tactic is very safe, there are no dead ends between the skirmishers, they can support each other, and if any place is breached, the subsequent reserves can be reinforced even if they are breached.

As long as the combat strength does not jump and advances slowly, at most ten days, the enemy can be successfully annihilated.

However, Roman was very dissatisfied, he felt that it was too slow, he sailed at sea for a month, fought for more than ten days, and went back for another month, and the delay in learning time in the middle made him particularly distressed.

So, he chose to disobey his orders, spread his magic power, and quickly found the cult.

A hiding place for the disciples, pulling Jarvis, rushing forward. @·error-free start~~

"Roman group, Roman group, what are you doing so fast? You have formed a salient and will be surrounded and annihilated, go back! ”

But Roman turned a deaf ear, turned off the communication directly, and went straight to the cultist's hiding place.

There, a group of cultists crouched silently in the grass, their bodies distorted, with tentacles or flippers growing and breathing gills mutating towards sea creatures.

After all, it was a military training, and the strength of these cultists was not strong, and they only had the combat strength of third-level apprentices, and Roman and Jarvis killed them all with a few fireball poisonous mist.

Roman sneered and said, "Right here? It's too weak. ”

Jarvis said: "They are just miscellaneous soldiers who have fled, and their strong combat strength has died on the frontal battlefield early, and it is precisely because they are not strong that they have trained the new recruits of the academy!" ”

Roman nodded, and said calmly: "Then can't we open Wushuang?" Jarvis, let's directly assault the core stronghold, finish early, and call it a day early! ”

Jarvis hurriedly stopped: "What's the hurry, there are times when the intelligence is inaccurate, what if there is a big killing weapon hidden in front of it?" If we go up recklessly, aren't we going to die? ”

"It's better to be cautious, let's go with the skirmishers, slow is slow, but it's better to be safe, isn't it?"

Roman didn't care: "That's too slow, I don't want to stay in this ghost place for a moment, if you're afraid, go back to the army, I'll do it myself." ”

According to reconnaissance, there is a stone mountain in the center of the island, and there is a temporary cave in it, which is strong enough to withstand the bombardment of naval artillery and witchcraft.

And it is also the base camp of the cult on the island, and the task of the academy troops is to occupy it, clear the whole island, and then return home.

Roman used acceleration sorcery and prepared for an assault, and Jarvis said helplessly: "I'll go with you, no wonder you hate teaming, teammates like you, who wants it but me!" ”

After speaking, the two of them flashed and charged forward, and they didn't pay attention to the miscellaneous soldiers they saw along the way, because the headquarters was attacked, and the miscellaneous soldiers would definitely come back to help, and as long as they surrounded the point and sent reinforcements, they could be wiped out.

In the rear, the commander had the intention of stopping Roman, but thinking of his deeds, he swallowed his words back and had to play with him, and as for the gap in the battle line he had left, he sent a reserve to top it.

Jarvis and Roman rushed all the way, God blocked and killed God, Buddha blocked and killed Buddha, and the miscellaneous soldiers who stood in the way were killed and lost their armor.

Roman was surprised to find that these mutant miscellaneous soldiers were extremely tenacious in their will to fight, and they were basically not afraid of death.

In the face of Roman's sudden advance, they basically fought to the death, and would rather sacrifice themselves than slow down Roman's advance, as if they were desperately guarding something.

And they are very numerous, although they can't make an impact, Roman can't help but be curious, and asks, "Why are there so many of them?" Are there so many cultists in normal times? ”

Jarvis replied: "They are all new mutants, and a month ago, they were still law-abiding and opposed cult citizens, but after the mutation, they will all become loyal evil god scroll clans!" ”

Roman was surprised and asked, "So powerful?" Not only biological mutations, but also racial identities change? ”

Jarvis sneered in disgust: "But isn't it, ordinary people who have experienced the pollution of evil gods will break away from human self-identity, and instead identify with mutants and embrace evil gods." ”

Roman was surprised, although there are mutations on the surface, at least the human racial identity cannot be changed for a while, and even because of becoming a monster, he has symptoms of self-loathing and depression.

After Joss was mutated at the beginning, she not only suffered from the emotional fluctuations caused by endocrine, but also racial cognitive conflicts, human thinking, and monster bodies, which made her fall into a mental crisis.

Without Roman's guidance, Joss might not have been able to persevere, and even committed suicide at some point.

Therefore, Roman was really surprised that the cult could change its racial perception so quickly, and then he thought of a possibility and asked in surprise:

"You mean... These pollution mutants, all citizens of *** island? ”

Jarvis nodded with a heavy face: "It is very likely, otherwise why do you think the wizard fleet does not distinguish between the enemy and me, and kills on a large scale, when the island is already full of evildoers." ”

An island is not to mention hundreds of thousands of people, if all of them become deep-sea aliens, the combat power of the lowest third-level apprentices, such a force is enough to shake the rule of wizards.

No wonder the Wizarding Council has zero tolerance for cults, once discovered.

, resolutely exterminated, leaving no room for anything.

The two of them fought indiscriminately all the way, gradually advancing towards the central stone mountain, and Jarvis reminded: "Roman, pay attention, there may be something special in the stone mountain, otherwise these polluted bodies will not fight to the death." ”

Roman nodded, slowing down his advance, the cultist has a marine adaptation mutation, has the ability to swim, and can escape from the sea if he can't beat it.

But they didn't do that, but chose to stay and fight Roman to the death, with only one explanation, that is, the things in the stone mountain are very important, and they are worth guarding with their lives.

However, Roman still didn't care, he didn't dare to be interested in the things in the stone mountain, and he didn't need to enter the stone mountain to destroy the enemy.

The two of them continued to kill, gradually approaching the entrance of the stone mountain cave, and at a certain moment, the front was suddenly empty, and they drove all the way, and finally killed the enemy entirely.

Although cultists from all over the island were coming, Roman was killing too fast for them to get back to the cave for a while.

Facing the deep darkness of the cave, Jarvis said, "Do you want to go in and have a look?" ”

Roman said: "What do you enter, there is obviously a source of pollution inside!" ”

He was also curious about what was inside, and when he saw a large pile of mosaics, he decisively suppressed his curiosity and stopped exploring.

Roman was finally cautious, and Jarvis was very happy, and suggested: "Let's wait for the big army here, the cultists on the island will come to help, and the advance of the big army will definitely be accelerated." ”

However, Roman continued to shake his head, rejecting the suggestion: "No, it's too slow, let's not go into the cave and lift the hole outside!" ”

Jarvis was stunned, only to see Roman silently reciting a lengthy mantra, his hands quickly sealed, and then aimed in the direction of the stone mountain, and gently pushed.

Jarvis saw that there were countless cracks in the stone mountain, and there were more and more cracks, from point to surface, gradually spreading to the whole stone mountain.

"Kacha, Kacha!"

As the cracks increased, the stone mountain began to fall stones, and the structure became unstable and vibrated as a result. @·error-free start~~

The next moment, with a finger of Roman's hand, the entire mountain shattered into stones and collapsed, and the contents of the cave were buried alive.

Jarvis wondered, "Can burying it alive kill the source of pollution inside?" ”

In order to avoid mental pollution, Jarvis did not dare to open the sperm magic detection, so he did not know what was going on inside.

But Roman has a chip, and after learning the pollution source course, he can carry out more detailed filtration according to the level of the pollution source.

Roman's own second-level cultivation can perceive pollution sources below the second level, but at this moment, in his perception, he sees a mosaic.

This means that the source of pollution in the cave is at least level 2 or above, and there is really a problem with intelligence detection, if a large army comes here and enters the cave, there will definitely be huge casualties.

Therefore, Roman directly shattered the entire stone mountain, trying to force out the source of pollution inside.

At the same time, he guessed in his heart that this should be the leader of the cult on the island, as long as he eliminated it, he could end the battle and return to the academy.

Roman waited quietly for the source of the pollution to be buried alive by the landslide, and it was impossible to remain indifferent.

Eventually, under the observation of the spirit magic, the mosaic began to squirm, constantly pulling at the rubble, trying to burrow back to the ground.

Roman said in a deep voice: "Jarvis, wear an eye patch, the enemy's pollution level is a bit high. ”

Jarvis wanted to ask how you know, but thinking of Roman's background, he didn't ask any more, silently put on the blindfold, and then said:

"I use the passive guidance technique, and you put the signal marker!"

Roman nodded: "No problem, the signal standard wavelength is..."

Since the source of pollution is imperceptible, in order to indicate the direction of the attack and combat the source of pollution, the wizard invented a signal sign according to the ancient tradition.

Beacons transmit signals to wizards in three-dimensional space, and they can know the location of the source of contamination by perceiving them.

Its function is similar to laser positioning, which is able to guide missile attacks,

Roman shoots a ball of light that lands somewhere in the gravel team, depending on where the source of the pollution came from.

Jarvis silently recited the mantra, extending his consciousness according to the wavelength of the signal given by Roman, and linking to the ball of light on the rocky pile.

As soon as the source of pollution drills out of the pile of rubble, it will touch the ball of light and indicate the direction of the attack.

Roman took off his blindfold and turned his head to Jarvis to confirm that he perceived the shield, Roman had a chip and no signal at all.

mark, a mass of mosaics is the signal mark.

And the signal mark has a disadvantage, that is, it shields the perception, except for the signal mark, you can't see anything, and if the enemy sneaks up from elsewhere, there is no way to defend against it.

But at the moment, Jarvis couldn't see anything, which was just right for Roman, because he found that above the head of the pollution source, this trace of black gas floated very similarly to the harmful version of the liquefied potion.

He couldn't help but guess in his heart: "Could it be that the mastermind behind the liquefied potion is a cult?" ”

In terms of motives, such speculation is not unreasonable, because the four islands that have been captured by the cult are all large settlements, which are heavily guarded and cannot be captured by conventional means.

If they can succeed, there must be someone who should cooperate with the outside world, and how to plot against a wizard of sufficient weight is a problem.

If liquefaction is a tool to achieve this goal, then can it be considered that Academy Island is actually one of the subversive goals?

And Roman is the pawn who was rebelled.

Thinking of this, Roman had another question in his heart: "If the speculation is correct, why did the cult choose him, although he is a little more powerful, but he is just a nobody, he is only a first-level cultivator, and he has a lot of them in the academy." ”

"In the eyes of the cultists, am I anything special?"

Then he thought of another word: "Fogging!" ”

Roman was the first to be promoted, the degree of atomization is not high, and Jarvis can also do it, but he has a father who is a governor, which is not easy to operate, and Roman has no background and is suitable for internal response.

Through the cloud of black gas, Roman roughly guessed the whole story, but he stopped thinking because the source of the pollution was about to come out.

As long as the source of pollution is defeated, all doubts will be solved.
