Chapter 449: Mage Equipment, and the Welcome in the Canyon
More than 200 boys and girls in the flowering season should have brought a lot of life to the desolate Grand Canyon, but in fact, until the last group of teams teleported down, the people who arrived at the arena first did not talk to the students of the other houses, and the scene looked a little deserted.
William looked at the contestants around him and wondered, "Strange, didn't they talk to each other very happily at dinner yesterday, why don't they all talk now?
Alicia stuck her staff in the crack in the stone on the ground, tied a bow behind her head and said, "No, Brother William." I think they do have a friendship with each other, or even a close relationship in private. However, there are more than 50 colleges participating here, and only 8 will make it to the finals, and the rest will be eliminated in the canyon. Lamin's idea is very good, but before the game has started, everyone has not encountered any difficulties, how can it be possible to cooperate with others in such a situation?"
"I see, the sense of crisis still has no comparison with the consciousness of confrontation. β
Fabiano, who was standing next to him, obviously had a stronger interest in Little Lori's staff, and after stroking his chin carefully for a while, he couldn't help but admire: "I didn't expect that there is such a beautiful light amplification staff in the world, if it is seen by the people of the Holy See, it will definitely cost a lot of money to buy it." Alicia, is this something from His Highness Icarus?"
"Don't think about it, this thing is definitely the most disgusting work ever. Little Lori pursed her lips and said with a look of disgust. "Put in a fat time that Lori wears. Gives you a powerful creature with shimmering holy light, and the holy light it emits is just right to block the bottom of Lori's vacuum skirt. Tsk, is there a better and more direct explanation of the existence of the close connection between the scenery under the girl's skirt and the holy light?"
"I don't quite understand what's going on, but for the sake of the thick black gas behind you, I think it's better not to continue to ask. Fabiano wiped the cold sweat from his cheeks and changed the subject, "Alicia, as a mage, don't you have any other equipment besides this staff, why haven't I seen any accessories?"
After tying her ponytail, Alicia raised her head and pointed to the big red bow and said, "Of course there is, isn't it right in front of you?" β
William, who thought that little Lori just wanted to change his hairstyle, turned his head curiously when he heard this, but he naturally didn't see anything strange, but Fabiano immediately knelt in front of the girl after touching the bow with his hand, and looked at her with tears in his eyes and said, "Please transfer it to me!"
"You should know that its mana recovery is definitely stronger than the equipment you have all over your body combined. Alysia unhurriedly picked up the staff and put it in her hand and said, "As long as you are not a cow who can instantly perform magic above level 4, it can support you to throw magic until you vomit blood from enemies to comrades to yourself." What are you going to get in exchange for such a precious item? β
Fabiano stammered. Out of the mage's love for the best equipment, he asked Alicia for a transfer without giving it a second thought. Although little Lori unexpectedly agreed to her request, she ...... What should I exchange for others?
Alicia is not short of money, and even if she is short of money, the economy of the Birea Empire is certainly not something that can be promoted by Fabiano's pocket money, and there is no way to talk about military coercion, and now this girl is running to the Garden of Hope to lose discipline instead of commanding the strongest army in history to unify the continent, so everyone should thank the Harris family for their strange fear of trouble - it is said that Prince Locklip returned to Mangla in October to deal with the affairs of the government for a week, and then disappeared directly. Almost didn't let General Fell put the whole city under martial law again, and in the words of beauty, it was definitely the most wasteful thing in the world, and he decisively vetoed it...,
Then the next second Alicia said something that made Fabiano, who had just thought of this, fall directly to the ground: "If you really can't think of it, give Cecilia to me! β
"Y-what are you going to do with Seya?" Fabiano asked hurriedly, not bothering to get up from the ground, "Could it be that you want to do something to her!?"
[I'm so nervous that I even call out my nickname? Why don't you just tease him again.] γ
Little Lori raised her head high, put her hand to her mouth, looked at the young man condescendingly, and laughed loudly: "Oh, hehehe, you don't have to know the specific matters, you just need to nod and agree." β
"Shake your head, what about the option!?"
"Nope. β
"Give me permission to raise objections to you, you tyrant!"
Alicia waved her hand indifferently, "How dare I compare to Sister Naye." How, here, do you want to be like the protagonist in countless bloody revenge dramas, without any hesitation, use his fiancΓ©e to exchange for powerful equipment from an evil boss, with which he successfully killed his uncommon enemy, who is dragging his scarred and dying body, looking back on the past, waiting for a long sleep, when the evil boss suddenly appeared and revealed that he was the real mastermind behind the scenes, and then pulled out the protagonist's beloved fiancΓ©e, and put the poor girl in front of him. Drop the last foot and step on the face of the dead protagonist to announce the end of the whole play?Ah, revenge or something is really empty!"
"Haven't you had enough of the stage play at your school anniversary!?" Fabiano said as he stood up and scratched wildly. "I can use my own switch to get that powerful piece of equipment, even to be your servant. But Seya is the exception, I will never sacrifice her in exchange for anything, even if it is a saint-level strength!"
Little Lori smiled and nodded: "Well, yes, your performance is finally worthy of Cecilia's inversion for so long." Seeing that you've been entangled with Karina all this time, I thought you had forgotten the original NTR tragedy. You must know that Senior Dibes has no intention of giving up until now, so it's better for you to watch tightly. Well, I can lend you this headband for the duration of the competition. As long as you ......"
Seeing that Alicia said this, she suddenly paused, grinned at the corners of her mouth, and smiled evilly. Fabiano, who realized that something was wrong, couldn't help but shake his whole body, and cold sweat flowed down like a stream, and his heart was cold, but it was too late to stop it.
"As long as you're willing to wear it on your head. β
"This is a hair accessory for girls, how do you let me wear it on my head!"
"It's okay, my bracelet contains Cecilia's special magical girl transformation potion, the same one you and Ilya drank during the trial hot spring bath last year. This is definitely the greatest invention...... Yes. The bracelet is at Mentor Chrissy's. Alicia suddenly rubbed her hair with her hands desperately and said with anxiety on her face, "It's not good, it's not good. I also put welfare posters and other pillow magazines in it, and the river crabs in the notebook are not hidden, and the fat times stolen from Sophia, Mao'er, Chasi, and Cecilia are also in itββ!"
Fabiano finally couldn't help it anymore, and he didn't care about the other party's incomparably noble status as the queen of the empire, took out a paper fan and slapped it on the head of little Lori: "How many bad things did you put in the bracelet!? Give me Thea's fat time. β
Little Lori raised her head in amazement, gave the boy a pair of shiny and watery big pure eyes, and asked sweetly with an innocent face: "Na, why does Brother Fabiano want Sister Cecilia's fatness? Could it be that he plans to put it to his nose and smell it carefully in the lonely and sleepless night? I think even if you ask Sister Cecilia to smell her directly, she will not refuse." β...,
"I'm sorry I was wrong, I was really wrong. Please raise your noble hand and let me go. β
Just as Fabiano Orz, who was full of cows, kept apologizing to Alicia on the ground, a bright firework suddenly exploded above the canyon. That was the official start of the game.
The nearby students obviously didn't have a routine like the Garden of Hope here, as soon as the signal was issued, they all picked up their luggage and walked out quickly, and some even used their fighting energy and magic power to accelerate, and in the blink of an eye, they disappeared into the corner in front of everyone.
"Let's go, too. Alicia leaned her staff and said to the three people around her, "Don't be in a hurry, now is not the time to fight for the lead." The real place to start working on is on the tenth day when the supplies run out, and until then, let's take a slow journey while enjoying the scenery along the way. Come here, I'll add a levitation to each of your packages. β
ββββββββββββββββββI'm the dividing line that started to hurryββββββββββββββββββ
It's boring to walk silently, especially with your own feet. But in fact, after walking down in the morning, everyone was about to get up again because of all kinds of stimuli, and ...... The stimulus was so strong that they could barely eat.
After using the wind blade to solve the jackal that pounced on him. Alicia let out a sigh of relief, relieved her tense nerves, and began to look around: Elijah stood at the front of the line to take care of the defense, William covered his wings, and Fabiano and himself stood at the rear to take care of the output. The representatives of the rest of the academy were also fighting hard not far away, and a few of them, estimated to be from a good family, and the eldest lady mage who was usually pampered couldn't even hold back their sobs.
The nearby ground was littered with skeletons that had been dried for a long time, none of which were intact, and it looked creepy.
The valley floor is mostly inhabited by scavengers, but that doesn't mean they won't be indifferent to the sight of plenty of delicious fresh meat. The group of jackals, who live in a natural cave not far away, usually hunt small animals and collect "pumice rock drops" for a living, but now they have the courage to launch many harassing attacks on the students.
Although similar to some kind of monkey that fell from a pumice rock, humans are not monkeys after all. The jackal, who wanted to take a bite of fresh meat, not only did not fill his stomach in the end, but instead ate a mouth full of vindictiveness and magic.
Seeing is not taking advantage. The jackals suddenly let out a strange bark, and then quickly withdrew from the battlefield.
Many people sat down in unison, they had never done any actual combat, they actually did not have much exertion, but the mental tension could not be recovered in a short time, as for those who were accidentally injured by jackals, they were even more unlucky, because the students who really knew how to deal with their wounds could be said to be very rare. By the time it's their turn to heal themselves, they'll probably be done with lunch.
"It's just an ordinary beast. What should I do if I really want to encounter a monster? Alicia muttered to herself with her hand on her forehead. "If you don't have any relevant experience, you will be thrown directly into the wilderness, and the people of the Mage Association are not afraid that the team that will persist in the final will not even be eight? No, maybe they are hoping to attract the attention of the academies on the continent by doing this. β
The heart-rending cry of a boy next to him interrupted Little Lori's train of thought: "Ohββ! my God, you're not bandaging people, you're tying up zongzi, right, my eldest lady!?"
If it weren't for the fact that you blocked the blow for me when the jackal pounced, the honorable Miss Ben wouldn't have bandaged a common man like you herself!
"I'm in tears, okay!"
Little Lori looked at the commonplace love scene in the light novel in front of her with embarrassment, and suddenly changed to a serious expression - the organizer did prepare emergency medicine for everyone in their backpacks to deal with trauma, but obviously, the treatment of trauma needs to be bandaged;
Not to mention the people who know how to do the treatment, I'm afraid there are not many who know how to bandage, right?
[It would be fun to do that......]
The three boys had just returned to Elysia after finishing their work. was startled by the evil smile that suddenly appeared on her face, and her scalp tingled. Then I saw Alicia use the levitation technique to jump on a huge rock nearby, shouting, "Please gather all the injured students and the students who are taking care of them to me, and I will teach you how to bandage your wounds." Students who can bandage also come over to help guide everyone, this is not a family secret method that is strictly forbidden to be passed on. β
Alicia had become a mythical presence among many people of her age, even if the representatives of the other houses had deliberately put away their admiration for the sake of competing with her. When little Lori ascended to the top, her appeal to them was still very strong, and after a while, many students gathered under the boulder.
William, who was watching from the sidelines, was puzzled: "It seems that she is just going to teach everyone how to deal with wounds, but ...... What's going on with that smile just now? It's definitely a sign of a bad idea. β
Fabiano shook his head: "I don't know either, but the only thing to be thankful for is that none of the three of us were hurt, otherwise we would definitely be the first to be unlucky." By the way, Ilya, why do you keep hiding your left hand behind your back?"
Illia glanced at Alicia on the rockβher attention was clearly not thereβand quietly reached out her left hand, a faint blood-red scratch on the back of her hand.
I see. The other two nodded in embarrassment.
After a brief demonstration, Alicia asked her students to start practicing - it wasn't until then that Lori's true purpose was revealed, when she jumped off the boulder and pretended to be watching the movements of the bandager, but each time she added this sentence at the end of the other party:
"You must tie it hard, otherwise the wound will not be easy to heal. β
Soon a series of earth-shattering screams rang out in the crowd.
"Wowββ! it's going to break, it's going to break. I'm going to have my arm broken, hey!"
"What's the noise, this is the right way to bandage. It's just a little pain, aren't you just gritting your teeth and getting through it!?"
"Please, my eldest lady, for the sake of the creator god, let me do it myself. β
"Ulusai! I said that I would personally bandage you as a thank you gift, and it is the virtue of a nobleman to repay kindness, and the common people should not pick and choose there!"
William, who finally understood what was going on, pulled Alicia out of the crowd in a cold sweat, indirectly saving a large number of innocent wounded: "Don't mess with Alicia, those jackals are still nearby." This animal is dangerous, and now is not the time to play with it. β
"It's okay, Brother William. Little Lori quietly withdrew her hand. "No one is going to continue with this when the effort is greater than the return, and the same goes for animals. After so many casualties of the same kind all morning, there was not even a piece of meat...... No, I remember a boy who had a little piece of flesh torn off his arm. In short, the battle loss ratio between jackals and ours is absolutely heaven and earth, do you think these guys who are usually used to eating carrion will come again?"
"Alicia. You're talking about animals that live in resource-rich areas, not wild beasts in the desolate lands. William shook his head. "In the wastelands of the Tanzanian Empire, I have seen many kinds of ferocious creatures, and they will never think about any cost, only the relationship between eating and being eaten, and that's it. The jackals had the same eyes as them, and I promise the afternoon will not be peaceful. β
[Strangely, if it is as William said, then this canyon should not be suitable for most second-year student activities.] But why was the venue chosen to be held here? It's like ...... Specially prepared for those of us who are far superior to our peers. γ
Alicia looked up at the strange thought in her heart and smiled, "Well, I know, let's have dinner while we are on guard." By the way, there's a tree nearby, and there's a frying pan in my bag, so I'll get some firewood so I can cook with these jackal carcasses...... Hey, what do you mean by taking out the bread!?"
