Chapter 9 Russell's News
Throughout the day, Caesar was immersed in incredible surprises. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The attribute of "transcendent piercing" really made Caesar a little unbelievable. The main thing is that the strength of the piercing is a little too scary and does not seem to be affected by the power of the javelin. After trial and error, Caesar discovered that he didn't even need to use too much force to penetrate multiple targets in a row.
Whether it's all kinds of armor and armor for wind and thunder mages, or rocks and trees in real life, Caesar has tried it all, and when facing his javelin, it is unexpectedly brittle.
It is said that the wind and thunder mages from level 6 to level 10 are more inclined to combat officers, because of the awakening of the layers of weapon effects. Caesar now finally had a first-hand experience.
Now that the three stages are instantaneous and the dragon's power is opened, the little dragon and the dragon vein spell will control each other, and they will be shot with a javelin or stabbed with a gun at close range, who can stop it at the same level?
Originally, Caesar didn't want his enchantment effects to be piercing, but now he was looking forward to it, and if the next fourth and fifth layers of effects were also piercing, what would happen to the result? Although the probability of this was really low, Caesar couldn't help but be a little excited.
And just when Caesar was about to reflect carefully and make appropriate adjustments to his recent cultivation focus, a shocking news came from afar.
――Russell, the craftsman god who died a hundred years ago, is suspected to have returned to the world!
When most people hear the news, they are either shocked, or they don't believe it, or they just listen to it as a joke.
But Caesar noticed another piece of news on the same day: a rare explosion broke out in a hilly area less than thirty miles away from the imperial capital, and the inhabitants of the entire imperial capital saw the mushroom cloud and firelight that rushed into the sky, and the accompanying deafening roar.
In this world, there can be such movements, in addition to natural disasters and the power of formations, there is only one left: that is, the battle that broke out between the powerhouses of the town!
Could it be that Russell went to the marshal to seek revenge, and then fought? Caesar couldn't help but guess in his heart.
Regarding Russell's existence, Caesar did not disclose it to the imperial military department after he was rescued, on the one hand, because of the agreement with Russell, and on the other hand, because Caesar always felt that Russell was not a treacherous person, and he was still injured, and he was afraid that the empire would continue to find trouble with Russell.
But now it seems that if the explosion outside the imperial capital is really related to Russell, then it must not be the military department that went to Russell to trouble, but Russell himself to find trouble.
Otherwise, how could he have appeared near the imperial capital? Shouldn't he have hid well at this time, and healed his injuries first? What the hell was the old guy thinking?!
"You seem to have something on your mind?" At noon that day, Caesar happened to meet Hughes, who had finished his class, and Hughes only glanced at Caesar and asked directly.
"Nothing. Caesar shook his head, he didn't want to talk to anyone about Russell.
Especially Hughes, Caesar is becoming more and more unable to understand this person, the bloody ghost Hughes in Aoki City, now seems to have a feeling as a teacher, his work attitude is serious, and the teaching quality is excellent, he has a small reputation in the Phoenix Military Academy, in comparison, Caesar's doorman Kakake is much bleaker.
Fortunately, Hughes didn't mean to ask, and changed the topic: "I remember you're a blacksmith, right? Recently, there was a selection event for a 'masked blacksmith' on Earth Street, why don't you try it?"
Caesar couldn't help but be stunned.
Hughes continued: "You see, most of the students have been talking about this lately. There are also rumors that the craftsman god Russell is not dead, and it is possible that he will participate in the selection of this masked blacksmith. ”
Caesar then remembered that the reappearance of Russell, the god of craftsmen, was just gossip to people, and this selection event on Earth Street was the thing that really attracted people's attention. Caesar was too obsessed with cultivation, and he didn't have much contact with people on weekdays, so he basically went to work and practiced, so he didn't feel the atmosphere in the academy.
"Why, are there any students going to participate?" Caesar wondered, "and the proportion of female blacksmiths seems to be relatively small." ”
"Less doesn't mean nothing. Don't forget how many female students there are in the military academy, even if the proportion is small, the absolute number is quite large. Hughes said lightly, "There are six people in my class who are going to participate." If you want to go, I'll help you ask Xu Wenjing for a registration form. ”
"Still don't. Caesar shook his head without much thought.
Caesar had heard of this so-called masked blacksmith selection before, and the specific situation was not very clear, but Caesar still knew one thing, that is, once he passed the selection, it meant joining the Earth Street family and becoming a guest of the family, which had a lot of benefits, but also had to be subject to a lot of constraints.
Not to mention that Caesar is in the stage of identity protection now, even if he does not participate in the protection plan, he will not participate in this selection.
Although Caesar didn't know much about the situation inside Earth Street, just from the surface, he knew that the water in this family was very deep, and Caesar didn't want to wade into troubled waters.
Then there was no word.
This is also the norm between Caesar and Hughes, basically after a few words, there is no topic, and then they go their separate ways, and then they do their own things.
But today is a little different, because just as the two were about to separate, a slightly flirtatious voice suddenly came from not far away: "What, you are going to participate in the selection of the masked blacksmith?
Caesar turned his head to look at it, not paying attention, but soon his eyes froze with a look of surprise.
I saw that not far away, several girls in military uniforms faintly surrounded a girl in civilian clothes, and the person who was surrounded was known by Caesar - it was Lisa!
"How did she come here?" Caesar was surprised, after all, with Lisa's strength and talent, it was impossible for her to become a student of the Phoenix Military Academy.
It is true that she is not wearing a college uniform, and now she is obviously being targeted by some undesirable elements on campus, with tears in her eyes, but she bites her lip and does not say anything.
"Whether I go to the audition or not, it seems to have nothing to do with you. Lisa looked at the few people in front of her and whispered.
"Yo, do you still have a temper?" the girl led by the leader was naturally mean, and sneered, "Just an exchange student, dare to pose in front of us regular students?
"It wasn't stolen!" Lisa's eyes flashed with anger, and she gritted her teeth, "My father has made meritorious contributions to the Empire, and he is also a blacksmith, so he got the registration form for me." Is Earth Street your family's? Wen Jing didn't say anything, what are you talking nonsense here?"
Syllable.
There was a crisp sound.
Lisa froze, and touched her red and swollen face, barely believing her eyes. The other party actually ...... Just slapped her in the face!
"Who made you speak so loudly?" said the mean woman with a shake of her hand and lazily, "I'll tell you the truth, my father is also a blacksmith, and I'm going to participate in this Kamen Blacksmith Audition. Who is your father? I know all the famous blacksmiths in the Empire, but I don't remember your father. ”
Lisa was silent, but her eyes gradually revealed a fierce look. In the disaster in Aoki Castle, Lisa's father almost died, and although he was rescued, he was no longer suitable to be a blacksmith, and the family's situation fell to freezing point in an instant. In the battle in front of her father's blacksmith shop, the military department fought against the traitor Shabiye and saved the imperial elites such as Wataru and Wenjing, so he gave Lisa a lot of compensation and help, but after all, the backbone of the family fell, and the situation did not improve in essence.
This exchange opportunity to come to the Phoenix Military Academy, as well as the selection opportunity of the masked blacksmith, were all exchanged by her father for a huge price, and Lisa did not allow anyone to laugh at it.
When people are cornered, they always burst out with terrible energy.
Lisa used to be a slimy girl with a lot of vanity, otherwise she wouldn't have been confused with Leo, but now that she had changed, she didn't say a word, and walked towards the mean girl opposite.
The mean woman's face changed slightly, and she immediately sneered, and glanced at the attendants on the left and right, while she quietly took two steps back.
Although the level of this exchange student is not good, and the strength must not be very good, the eyes are indeed a little scary, which makes the mean girl feel a little jealous.
In the minds of ordinary people, the sacred first-class military academy of the empire is actually not so glamorous, everything that is available in other academies, there is it here.
For example, a mean woman is a bully.
"May I ask you, how do you get to the library?" a voice came from the side abruptly.
"Huh?" the mean woman frowned, turned her head to look, and saw the doorman Kaka coming over, scratching her head a little embarrassed and saying, "I'm sorry, I went to the library to deliver something, and I suddenly got lost while walking......"
Will the military academy guards get lost here?
Except for Lisa, everyone who was present knew that this guy was pure. The mean woman stared at Caesar and said coldly in a low voice: "Mr. Doorman, this matter has nothing to do with you, although it is great that you defeated Long Qiqi, but don't forget your identity." ”
Caesar glanced at Lisa, who was looking at him with some confusion, probably not understanding the situation in front of him, after all, exchange students do not enroll with new students, and it is normal for Lisa not to know her new identity.
Sighing in his heart, Caesar still smiled honestly on the surface, and said, "I really don't remember the way to the library, this, why don't you trouble this classmate to lead the way?"
As he spoke, he pointed to Lisa on the side.
Lisa was about to say that she didn't know the way when she first arrived, but Caesar immediately glared at her and motioned for her not to speak.
The mean woman's face completely fell, stared at Caesar for a moment, and finally sneered three times: "Okay, okay! ”
After all, Caesar has some fame in the military academy, and the news of defeating Long Qiqi has already spread, and this matter is a loss on the side of the mean woman, and it will not benefit her at all if she makes a big fuss.
Lisa looked at Caesar a little nervously, thinking about how to thank the other party, but Caesar waved his hand, turned around and left.
Walking around a corner, Hughes was standing with his arms crossed, he had been hiding in the shadows and not showing his face.
"What are you thinking?" Hughes frowned at Caesar, his tone a little cold, "You don't have to worry about what happened just now, it's a violation of the basic rules of the Identity Protection Program." ”
