Chapter 200: The Storm is Coming

The strong man's orders were delivered like lightning, and soon, the mages who had been scattered by the darkness withdrew one after another from the battlefield they had created. Just as they appeared, the members of the True Eye disappeared into the night as if they had never been there.

They are like a storm in the desert, which comes suddenly and goes even more quickly. However, under their violence, the land of the academy has left many scars, and the academy, which is known as "the safest area around the Catrice", is now in shambles. Whether their plan is successful or not, the blow they have dealt to the academy is definitely not limited to the "reputation" point.

Centered on the square near the medical building, a large number of sub-buildings were either burned down or violently destroyed, leaving only ruins. Naturally, the trees planted in the surrounding area were not spared from the disaster, and most of the once lush vegetation was turned into charcoal.

The chimeras that bought time for the members of the Eye of Truth to retreat either collapsed in the path of darkness or were reduced to ashes in the rain of fire that descended from the sky by the air cavalry formations that arrived afterward. In the blink of an eye, the monsters that had caused a lot of damage in the academy had become pieces of flesh scattered along the roadside.

But it wasn't the members of the True Eye who left the most damage in the academy, but Lizzie, who drove them back. The boulevard leading to the Silver Tower near the infirmary building was in a dilapidated state for several kilometers. The grass and trees withered, the roads cracked, and even the magic in the air was strangely exhausted.

"Looks like a little overdone. ”

The initiator of this tragic situation lay on Curt's back, looked at the masterpiece he left behind with some embarrassment, and said, "It's a little unexpected." To be honest, I didn't expect it to be like this...... Oops, I haven't moved my body for too long, and I accidentally used too much force. ”

This is not a big havoc that can be done by going too far. After all, beyond the apparently anomalous desolation of the land, the tower that had been interrupted by magic was unequivocal evidence of the crime. Perhaps even the air cavalry formations that arrived later were fortunate enough to witness that scene.

At least she wasn't telling her words to be too forceful, and before reinforcements from the Governor's Mansion arrived, Lizzie had lifted the spell she had created. Suddenly, the highly compressed magic spread out like a storm, and the thin girl fell to the ground as if she had exhausted all her energy. And Curt, who was standing beside her, carried her on her with ease, and the thin girl was fluttering. Like a ghost with only an outline.

"No, not at all, you've done a great job. Curt, who was carrying Liqi on his back, adjusted his center of gravity. "Although I'm a little sorry for Dean FranΓ§ois, on the whole, it may be just right to do this." ”

Lizzie's nonsense left an illusion on both the True Eye and the Academy. They all mistook the giant beast that appeared in the darkness for each other's strength. In addition to them. Surely the other camps could not ignore this state of affairs - although the losses that accompanied it were somewhat large.

There are many valuable buildings in this college, whether it is the stone pillars, the walls, the carvings in the details, and even the defensive Rubik's Cubes placed in various places to protect these buildings, which contain a lot of historical value, but today, these cultural heritage have been severely destroyed.

The three people like the Shining Tower had already witnessed the devastation caused by the frontal attack of the Eye of Truth as they passed through this battlefield, so they were not surprised to see the ruins of the museum. Only Curt sighed vigorously, apparently quite dissatisfied with the result.

It is worthy of the location where the Eye of True Vision has concentrated a large number of troops to attack. All the scenery in this area has been painted in shabby colors.

The fountain set up in the central plaza sank into the ground, creating a dark hollow in the ground paved with polished sandstone bricks. A fountain made of the same material fell into the ground through that hole. The various decorations left on the surface also staggered, leaving only tattered fragments.

The most completely destroyed of these is undoubtedly the Historical Memorial of the Catrice Academy, which is located in the Governor's Palace, which has almost collapsed under the attack of spells and monsters. Not only the building structure, but also the many valuables placed inside are certainly not immune.

At the edge of the hollow in the ground, Curt couldn't help but shout loudly: "Do these saboteurs know how many things they have destroyed casually! Do you know what a loss this is! Don't they know that there are still many works of art made by the aborigines of the pioneer era here, and each one is a treasure full of cultural value! If you take them all and sell them, you may not be able to lose this account!"

It contrasted sharply with the expression on his face when he said, "Maybe it's just right to do this," as if in his eyes, the damage caused by the knockdown of the tower and the withering of vegetation in another area was nothing more than a trivial matter compared to the destruction of the museum.

Of course, it wasn't the destruction that Liggie had caused - rather, Liggie, who knew about Curt's quirks, was careful to avoid the valuables as she moved forward. The embers of the spell that remained on the building pointed the suspect at the magician who was wielding the short spear, who was undoubtedly involved in the operation tonight.

If he appears in the queue for a frontal attack, then he should become a combat leader of the True Eye. Considering his spell level, the rest of the members of the Eye of Truth probably had a similar level - at least a second-rate mage wouldn't be able to fight them.

But there were no corpses in the vicinity, neither the Eye of Sight nor the Academy Guards, nor even the chimeras that had been thrown into the attack. Dead or alive, all that remained was all the destroyed masonry and rubble, and nothing else.

Was he transferred by his companion in time during the evacuation?

"You're still very concerned about such small things that are not very important. Just as Curt was carefully observing the surroundings, Lizzie suddenly laughed, "It's inevitable that there will be destruction in battle, especially in such a blitzkrieg, maybe it's too late to transfer these artifacts in time." ”

Her face could be described as bleak, and after squandering a lot of mana, her already bloodless face was almost pale. But she didn't show a weak expression, and the arrogance that was difficult to dissipate still lingered between her eyebrows and eyes, making her smile a little poisonous.

"But you can't deny that it's a huge loss. ”

As if feeling the teasing gaze of Lizzie behind him, Curt shook his head and began to argue: "The tower can be rebuilt, and the vegetation can be replanted, but there is no way to recover these historical relics! ”

Curt shook his head again, his expression a little embarrassed. A lover of ancient buildings and strange artifacts, he lamented the destruction of the museum. The thought of how many of those one-of-a-kind collections are still well preserved makes him even more troubled.

In addition to Aboriginal artifacts that have been housed here since the pioneer era, this historical memorial also contains many valuable artifacts. From sculptures and murals donated by graduates, to finely crafted spells, as well as first-hand documents recorded in the work of generations of researchers...... The white building, which houses a total of 34,732 pieces, is now left in ruins.

"Uh...... That, uh, how do you say that......"

Jon, who was half-crouched on his staff, took two breaths, and looked at Liqi, who was almost slumped on Curt's back, and stopped talking. The long hours of using the wooden staff provided by the Eye of Truth had brought his magic to the bottom, and Curt and Lizzie's conversation continued to irritate him.

He was a shameful betrayer.

Perhaps there are many others who have betrayed the academy that taught them, and he is nothing more than one of the weak and powerless individuals. But this still can't change the bad behavior, and he, and each of them, need to be responsible for the losses paid by the Academy.

"So a half-hanger is a half-hanger, what do you think you can do by blaming yourself?" Lizzie glanced at Jon, whose expression had darkened, and teased him dismissively, "You betrayed the Academy, and then? You don't think you'll be able to change your life by running away, right?" ”

The people above were in contact with him in one direction, so he didn't know that there were people in the academy who were betrayers like himself. On the other hand, no one in the vast academy would know about his betrayal, except for Curt and Lizzie, as long as they didn't say it.

"Ah, don't get me wrong, we're not going to threaten you with that. ”

Curt looked at the expression on Jon's face, and suddenly burst into laughter: "I can sue you, you actually don't have much use value." Fortunately, those in the True Eye don't know that you've changed jobs again, so you can just continue with your previous lifestyle. You can do whatever the other party asks you to do, and tell SΓΉ Liqi when necessary, so that we can be prepared to deal with it. ”

This is the most "reasonable" way to dispose of a worthless betrayer.

"The storm is coming, and you'd better start praying to your gods from now on, so that they can bless you for the protection you can take care of in this storm. ”

The sickly young man glanced at the sky with a wicked smile, and as Lizzie's accumulated magic power was dissipated in one go, the sky that had been extremely clear not long ago was covered with a layer of clouds. The breeze gradually rises, and the residual heat of summer slowly dissipates into the air under the continuous blowing of the night breeze.

The clouds of calamity are about to begin to gather on this land. (To be continued!)
