Lizzie couldn't help but yawn.

The warm afternoon air is mixed with a hint of the aroma of dried flowers, which makes people drowsy. She leaned on the table, lazily looking around her classmates who were silently looking at the books in their hands, unlike her, the apprentices of the third class of the first year of the theory department were seriously reviewing their homework at this time.

The glow of the electric lamps illuminates the large room, and the smell of ink and paper wafts through every corner of the room. In this room, divided by a round table and bookshelves, hundreds of apprentices are grouped into groups.

It's boring......

Yawning again, she turned her head to look out the window, where it was storming outside. Through the tall floor-to-ceiling window, a heavy white rain curtain could be seen hanging down from the sky, covering the entire world in a thick vapor.

It's been a week since the college was attacked, and so has the heavy rain. Inky clouds completely covered the sky, and the sun, which was hidden behind the thick clouds, could not reveal even a small corner. Surrounded by boundless rain clouds, the day is as dark as night.

For a few days, the situation in the city of Cartrice was as gloomy as the weather. After a massive campaign of terror around the academy that night, the True Eyes seemed to disappear into the land, never to move again.

Maybe even those crazy people, after such a large-scale mess in the entire Katris area, would not be in a hurry to commit crimes against the wind. Their attack was not limited to Catrice Academy. Even around the city, there are many areas that have been implicated.

The reports of the attacks were nothing short of explosive, and the academy alone had been given private land—more than twenty in total, large and small. The number of victims is growing, although the police and the military have been cracking down on the attackers in the immediate vicinity. But it's still not enough.

Even if the chaos has now subsided, there are still many incidents that need to be resolved.

And the most interesting thing is the relevance of these events. Although it was now known that the Eyes of Truth were responsible for the crime, there was no connection to the location of their attack, as if they were deliberately trying to cause chaos in the city.

"In addition to the 'True Eye' who attacked the Academy, there seem to be several other groups or organizations operating on their own. After visiting Grosstead, he reported to Lizzie what they had learned, "and the attacks were not limited to the Academy. There have been many similar incidents in the vicinity of the city's political and religious facilities, and the exact number of damage is still being counted. ”

All of these attackers used guerrilla tactics. No area or facility will be occupied - and of course, the very few groups that attempt to occupy the facility have been suppressed by the army's strong firepower. And in addition to these gangsters who have killed themselves, most of the criminal groups are still at large.

"I said, Leonster. Can you imagine?"

At the time of the news of Sue Sù Liqi. Curt also learned from Grostede's tone and said, "We've caught the thugs in the Slotter gang, and we've caught the second-rate gangsters in Laleña - it doesn't matter, because we've been dealing with the bastards a lot. But when a concrete grem appeared in front of us, my boys were terrified. ”

Curt said that the garrison had dealt with several medium-sized Graeme in the city center, and in order to deal with them, the garrison had to give up chasing the scattered troublemakers. Golems made of clay or reinforced concrete are the most rudimentary of structures and are not equipped with too complex spell structures, but they are used against members of the garrison who lack heavy weapons. These rudimentary but sturdy monsters are quite productive.

When they visited the scene afterwards, they realized that these Graemes had appeared too suddenly. Presumably the Eye of Truth was invested to restrain their actions. It is not known if the troublemakers of Slots and Lalaiñas were in their group, but their actions were undoubtedly premeditated and planned.

The Eye of Truth had been slaughtering the Slots not long ago, and the fire between the Slots and Ralenia had not abated since a long time ago. Is it really possible for these organizations to put aside their old suspicions and work together for a common goal?

Lizzie suddenly remembered the "righteous name" that the Eye of True Vision used to encourage those cannon fodder, and many of them seemed to have the determination to fight for it. If the group is acting with an obvious goal, are the other groups in the downtown area doing the same?

Of course, when order is disrupted, the possibility of some organizations that have been dormant until now suddenly going berserk cannot be denied. But they couldn't all attack the Catrice at the same time, so there must be a thread behind every mess that connects them.

And while these events exploded quickly and destructively, they were inefficient. Different organizations have invested a lot of people in different places, but after creating a big disturbance and destroying many facilities, they have not achieved much real results.

The assault in the direction of the Academy was thwarted by the stubborn resistance of the guards and Lizzie's nonsense, and the attackers in the city were dealt with by the garrison and garrison before they could make any effective moves. It is not known what the results of this operation were.

It stands to reason that terrorist demonstrations are basically a warning to governments or corporations to negotiate, and to cause chaos like they would only tarnish the perception of each event in people's minds. In fact, the group that caused the incident did not make any statement after the fact.

If these groups are not acting on a plan, and the Eyes of Truth are not aiming to sow chaos in the city, then what is behind it?

It's not simple, but the number of puzzles in hand is far from enough, and there is no way to decipher the other party's plan, let alone restore it and find a solution.

The lack of intelligence has turned the incident into a mess, and it is not just the military and the garrison that have troubled it. After organizing the organization of the Academy, Cruise François led his sorcerers to investigate the surrounding area and assist the local people in their restoration.

"It's raining all day, and people are going to mold. And how long will this last...... I'm kind of nostalgic for Professor Donovan's ancient writing class. We're also magicians, so why can't we help out like those elemental guys?"

Lizzie, whose eyes were half-closed, heard an apprentice in the next class whispering a complaint, and his face was as bad as the sky outside the window: "They all say that the academy is the safest place around Catrice, how can you let those crazy people rush to the center and wreak havoc? And those guys seem to be magicians too......"

No wonder he complained like this, in the midst of that commotion, the area most affected was probably the Academy. The damage to the trees and public facilities was a minor incident, and some of the apprentices were slightly injured during the emergency evacuation, and some of them are still being treated in the infirmary.

Fortunately, the previous batch of apprentices who were sent in have been freed from the coma, and although Danfoss and Hepburn have not yet recovered, they can already get out of bed for rehabilitation exercises. The old man and the short and fat doctor who used them as real materials for "artificial lifeforms" are nowhere to be found.

As for the "labyrinth" located beneath the Academy, it is now being gradually explored through the efforts of the Academy's guards. I heard that these combat-savvy sorcerers have found a lot of discarded spell equipment underground, many of which are metal boxes that resemble coffins, and some chimeras that have not been put into battle...... It's just that these chimeras have been smashed to tatters when they are revealed.

The large number of secondments has caused a shortage of teachers in the college, which is one of the reasons why the apprentices of the theory department gather in this room for self-study. The study, located on the third floor of the Silver Tower, had been filled with idle apprentices for a week.

"I said don't complain, don't you know that the theory department building can't be used now?" said a bespectacled teenager sitting next to him in a low voice, "And we theory departments can't form combat effectiveness at all, even if we go to the scene, it's useless." ”

Another reason is that the building of the Theory Department has opened several large holes under the attack of the True Eye. Although it did not affect the use of Cheng Dù, in such a stormy weather, it was impossible for the academy to let the apprentices stay in the rickety building for self-study.

In fact, the teaching buildings of other departments were more or less affected by the war, and many of them were even more severely destroyed - the teaching buildings of the alchemy department were even destroyed by spells of unknown origin. However, the apprentices of these schools are all under the leadership of the corresponding teachers to help the students organize with their professional knowledge, and only the useless theory department is thrown into this study room for self-study.

From a certain point of view, this is also a somewhat unpleasant differential treatment.

"You're really laid-back, Miss Leonster. ”

It was Jon who spoke to Lizzie who had suddenly walked up to her, and he didn't know if he had been in trouble this week, his face was a little pale and tired. He looked like he had just returned from outside the tower, and he still had a lot of wet mud dots on the corners of his clothes.

His gaze was locked on Lizzie, but his eyes flickered a little: "Dean François has something to look for you, and Mr. Leinster has passed." He asked me to tell you that what I want to say is not a very important matter, and I ask you to judge carefully whether you listen or not. ”

It was funny, and Lizzie had a smile on her face—she hadn't expected the Wind of the Twelve Directions to find herself so quickly. (To be continued!)
