37. Top 10 weird stories in the academy

Russell's righteous words:

"I'm not going to tell anyone about that!"

He added a remark that had nothing to do with the truth:

"Oh yes, today I wanted to buy something extraordinary, and I found that I was a little short on money."

Seeing Russell's upright appearance, Nocturne seemed to understand something, and took out a silver-white artifact from his pocket.

It was a thumb-sized silver charm with a silvery-white electric glow on it.

"Lightning Strike Charms, consumables, are as powerful as a Lightning Strike spell cast by a second-year student of the Elemental and Energy Department. Normally preserved, it can maintain extraordinary strength for more than half a year. ”

In addition to classifying the students into the realm of strength, Subway also classifies all transcendent items, and charms like this are second-grade quality charms.

A talisman of this quality, placed in the student trading area, may be able to fry 5 gold coins!

If you can get your hands on it, you will have a hole card when you clash with the White Wolves Club again.

Russell, however, was unmoved.

His head was held flat, and he didn't even look at the charm in his hand from Nocturne.

The silver charm flew into Russell's pocket by itself, which was very strange, probably haunted by ghosts.

Feeling a little heavier in his pocket, Russell answered the girl's question:

"Mr. Dragon said that it was responsible for guarding a seal. But it was not said exactly where the seal was. ”

Nocturne bowed her head lightly and said with a smile:

"Thank you for your answer, I have nothing else to do. If you have any ideas for joining the campus association, you can always come to me. ”

Nocturne turned to leave, but was stopped by Russell:

"Does the whisper I heard at the sorting ceremony have anything to do with you?"

At the sorting ceremony, Nocturne precedes Russell.

So Russell suspects that it has something to do with Nocturne.

It's just that at that time, Nocturne was only a candidate who had not yet entered the school, and Russell believed that she would probably not be able to cast a spell to affect the Sorting Hammer in front of so many students and teachers.

However, judging from today's situation, the nocturne background should not be simple, and it obviously has its own secrets.

Russell intuitively surmised that Nocturne did not join a campus association normally, as she claimed, but had a certain connection to the corresponding association before entering the school, similar to the relationship between the White and White Wolf Clubs. If it's just a new member, how can you be so active in recruiting new people?

Unless you get into a pyramid scheme.

Nocturne listened to Russell's question, with a face, ah no, the lower half of her face was dazed:

"What sound?"

It really wasn't yours who did it.

"It's okay." Russell turned to leave.

This time it was replaced by a nocturne that stopped Russell:

"Wait a minute!

"What exactly did the voice you hear say to you?"

Russell turned, but didn't answer.

Nocturne suddenly realized, and pulled out another charm.

It was a pearl charm carved with the pattern of waves.

"The summoning water elemental spell is equivalent to a summoning spell released by a second-year student in the creation and summoning department, and it takes a small amount of effort to maintain the summoning."

The pearl charm also inexplicably floated up and flew into Russell's pocket. I guess it's another supernatural phenomenon.

Russell smiled and replied:

"At the sorting ceremony, a mysterious voice told me to go to a certain place in the academy to look for treasures, saying that it was my chance, but it was broken without saying where that place was."

Professor Black Amber did not ask Russell to keep the mysterious voice a secret, so Russell believed that the secrecy was not too high. But even so, out of vigilance and suspicion of Nocturne, he did not reveal any substantive information.

After listening to Russell's words, a faint smile appeared on the lower half of Nocturne's face:

And so it was...... The one who is sealed is telling you......"

The girl was silent for a long time before she muttered in a gloomy and terrifying, ghost-like tone:

"Russell, this school, this school, maybe there is something unclean in the seal. The top ten weird stories of the academy may be true. ”

"Top 10 Strange Stories in the Academy?"

"Russell can ask other people about it, it's very, very interesting. If you are interested, you can talk to me. Nocturne smiled darkly.

The two chatted casually for a few more moments, ending tonight's topic.

Before parting, Russell added:

"I'm not going to tell anyone about the conversation between us tonight."

The two nodded to each other in tacit understanding, looked at each other and smiled, and waved goodbye.

……

Upstairs in the dormitory, seeing that Russell was about to return, Subway quickly cut off the live broadcast on his mobile phone.

Close the window.

Turn off the lights.

Go to bed.

Russell returned to the dorm.

"Next time I go back to the dormitory, be quieter, I just fell asleep." On the bed, Subway grumbled.

"Got it." Russell rolled over and complained, "Why did you go to bed so early tonight?" ”

In bed, Russell took out the two charms he had harvested tonight and examined them carefully in the moonlight for a while.

Each spell is equal to one spell for a mid-sophomore student. Even a single blow is enough to wreak havoc on your opponent and turn the tide of battle in a first-year level magic duel.

Even if you meet an old student in the late first grade, as long as Russell spends one of the spells, there is a chance to win!

It's a pity that the charm is a consumable and can only be used once, so it's best not to use it. And even if I have a charm to support me, I can only challenge Shengbai's younger brother alone, if I am besieged by many people, I will definitely not be their opponent......

Alas, as a freshman I am still too weak, or is it more important to improve myself as soon as possible......

With a mind in mind, Russell took the two charms back into his pockets and turned on his vision again.

Confirming that there were no ghosts watching nearby, Russell's hanging heart fell.

He took out his phone, hid under the covers, and edited the information on his phone, ready to tell Professor Black Amber everything about what happened tonight.

Russell knew he had a shortcoming.

It's too trustworthy.

So he didn't even tell any "people" about tonight's secret, just a black cat.

"It's strange, when I was chatting with Nocturne today, I was a little sleepy, is it because it's too late?" Russell thought as he edited his phone's messages, but was not affected by the slightest hint of sleepiness.

……

After Nocturne and Russell parted, they walked into the quiet forest.

Behind the girl, the pale and hazy spirit phantom reappeared:

"Miss, I did as you commanded, and I applied imperceptible shallow hypnosis to the teenager named Russell, which was impossible to resist with the mental resistance of a first-year student. In a state of shallow hypnosis, Russell's words should be the truest thoughts in his heart, including his promise not to tell him about tonight. ”

A smile appeared at the corner of Nocturne's mouth, and she bowed her head slightly.

Once the hypnotized young man showed excessive vigilance in the conversation just now, or there was a possibility that the conversation just now would be leaked, Nocturne would take advantage of the hypnotic state to make Russell forget part of his memory and forget the questions he had asked.

"Hehe, it seems that the information we obtained is not wrong, Wang is really sealed in the academy." Nocturne chuckled, her gloomy tone accompanied by the murmur of the evening breeze, and I don't know which one was colder.

"Miss, what's the next direction of our investigation?" The pale hazy phantom asked.

"Top 10 Weird Stories of the Academy." Nocturne replied coldly, "There may be a few of them that are true, from the sealed king. ”
