The school trip is an exclusive activity for the second-year students of Colleurs College. The main purpose of this event is twofold: one is to allow students to experience the hardships of survival in the wild under the premise of ensuring safety, and at the same time to increase their knowledge, and the other is to consolidate the knowledge and skills learned in the past year through guò off-campus practice, and to gain a sense of accomplishment by killing some small magical beasts, so that everyone can realize how great the improvement of their own strength in exchange for this year's efforts has been. Therefore, school trips can also be regarded as a special way for the school to motivate students.

The destination this time is the Warcraft Forest, and many students are familiar with this name. The Warcraft Forest is not a general term for the forests where a large number of Warcraft live, in the Kingdom of Libel, the term Warcraft Forest refers to an area in the southern part of the kingdom, where the levels of Warcraft living in a stepped manner from the outside to the inside, not only now, but also in the literature hundreds of years ago. It stands to reason that powerful monsters will have their own territory and will have a tendency to expand their territory. Even those who have not studied mathematics know that the area of the annular area decreases as the radius decreases. Therefore, the concentration of high-level demonic beasts in the center of the forest is not conducive to their territorial expansion. Although it is not clear why such a strange phenomenon occurs, the existence of this law makes the Warcraft Forest an excellent testing ground. As long as the students do not go deep into the forest, they are guaranteed that they will never encounter a powerful enemy. This provides a strong guarantee for the personal safety of students, simply put, as long as students do not die, they will definitely not die. But the reverse is also true, every year there are so many brain-dead people who take the initiative to die, knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, and they prefer to go to the tiger mountains. In the end, it became a snack for high-level Warcraft, which is really regrettable.

Due to the existence of Collers College's "one-year elimination system", second-year students can also be called freshmen. After a brutal round of screening, the rest are elite. The so-called elite not only requires strong combat effectiveness, but also must have a bright mind, know how to measure, and know how to advance and retreat. But since it is an elite, it is inevitable that there is such an arrogance in the body, and there are always people who imagine themselves as the protagonists of the story, thinking that as long as they form a team with perfect professional coordination, with their superb skills and extraordinary wisdom, they will be able to leapfrog and fight monsters, so as to brag to their classmates. Judging from past experience, this kind of arrogance often harms others and oneself, and after defeating a level 5 monster, he wants to continue to crusade against the level 6 big guy, kills a level 6 monster, and also wants to conquer a level 7 giant beast. The endless climb to the heights often ends up falling harder. Whether it is an individual or a team, there must be a certain limit to its ability. It's like a flat load used to lift heavy loads, as long as it is still within the bearability range, it doesn't matter whether the cargo is light or heavy. But once the weight of the two ends exceeds the limit that the wood can bear, the flat pole will break, and the end of the chicken flying egg fight is inevitable.

Therefore, before the departure of the large army, the leaders and instructors of the college repeatedly emphasized to the students on the issue of "nozuonodie", and everyone swore that there was no problem.

Thus, the school trip began. The means of transportation they took was naturally the train, but this time the students took the special train of Colleurs College, and the comfort level was not known to be higher than the original "tin prison". Although it is still a little green, Ai Xue is also considered to be in the upper middle, and needless to say, there will naturally be a lot of "flies" buzzing around them. But fortunately, with Sister Lelia helping to block it, many people don't bother them anymore because they know it's boring. In this way, nothing unpleasant happened on the journey.

"Inside, is this the Monster Forest? It doesn't look like a relic forest. ”

Although it was a zero voice, the people who heard this immediately understood that it was Ai Xue "Ai Xue" speaking.

"You've been to the Relic Forest, you've seen coral trees. It's so nice, I'd like to go once if I have time. "It was none other than Lelia, who lost the first game in the quarterfinals.

As for why Lelia is with Ai Xue, and how to tell who is talking between Zero and Ai Xue, this has to start before leaving.

Let's pull the camera back a little bit --

Today is the day when the second-year freshman goes on a week-long school trip to the Warcraft Forest. Ai Xue had been told that a senior sister would come to her today to join her on a second-year school trip, so she had to stay in the dormitory and not go anywhere. Lena and the others had their own classes and left the dormitory early in the morning, and Ai Xue had to play cards with Zero to pass the time.

Knock knock.

There was a knock on the door.

"Hello, is Ai Xue here?"

"It's coming, it's coming. Zero jumped out of Ai Xue's bed, put on his shoes, and hurriedly opened the door for the guest. Ai Xue was sitting on the other side of the bed, and before she could get off the ground, Zero had already opened the door.

"Good morning, your name is Zero, right? ”

"Rai, Lelia...... Senpai?"

Zero paused while speaking, after the game a few days ago, the other party was also considered a celebrity in the school, and it looked like a beautiful woman up close. The other party suddenly called out his name again, which surprised Zero a little. Although he is currently studying with Teacher Eve, in the end, he doesn't know if he is a student of Colleurs Academy, and he doesn't know how to call the blue-haired beauty in front of him before he speaks, but in the end he still uses the affectionate and not rude name of "senior sister".

"That's right, Mother has told me about you and Ai Xue?"

"Mother...... Could it be Mr. Rhein?"

"yes, didn't she mention me to you?" Lelia looked surprised.

I said how I felt a little familiar at first sight, it turned out to be the daughter of the old lady of the Rhine! No wonder her profession is also a summoner and water magician.

"Not really!" replied quickly to Zero.

"Now I'm going to introduce myself, my full name is Lelia Reska, and I'm a summoner and water magician. In terms of strength, it should be reasonable. During this school trip, I was responsible for keeping Ai Xue safe and guiding her in summoning studies. Okay, can I let Ai Xue talk to me?"

Zero nodded, and Ai Xue came to her side as well.

"Hello Sister Lelia, my name is Ai Xue, thank you for your attention. At the same time, Ai Xue bowed to Lyria.

Although there were still zero people to speak, Lelia had already been told that Ai Xue could not speak and could only communicate through her guardians, but when she felt this special way of expressing herself, Lelia still felt a little weird.

"I don't feel like it's good to tell if what Zero says represents Ai Xue or her own will. ”

"Yes, we've been bothered by this question for a long time. "Ai Xue" said.

"How about starting with the choice of words and sentences?" said Lelia.

"Choice of words and sentences?"

"Yes, as long as the two of you speak in different styles, it should be easy to tell the difference. For example, if one of you deliberately says 'I want to go to the cafeteria', you can also exaggerate it a little more, so that you can know exactly if Ai Xue or Zero is talking. ”

Zero pondered for a moment, then cast an inquiring glance at Ai Xue. Seeing Ai Xue shake her head, Zero also breathed a sigh of relief.

"No, I can't. ”

"Why?"

"Because it sounds like a good two, and why use the cafeteria as an example, you don't think of the two of us as foodies, right? ”

"Uh, how could it be. Lelia was momentarily speechless.

"But it's a good idea. Zero's approach to Lelia was affirmed on a certain course.

Zero remembered some anime he had watched on Earth, and in order to make the image of some characters more distinct, he would also put some effort into the characters' lines, such as Shinobu in Monogatari and Hero in the cute wolf, and would use the kind of ancient pronouns that are rarely used by modern people. There's also adding some meaningless syllables at the end of the sentence as a mouth fetish when speaking.,Make it the character's cute point.,Highlight Sanae's death、Yutachi's poi, and Marisa's da☆ze.。

Uh-huh, that's fine. You don't need to be cute or anything, so it's good to leave it to Ai Xue.

For example, the phrase 'I'm going on a study trip' is the original sentence from me, and if Ai Xue wants to express this meaning, I need to add '' at the end of the sentence. Ai Xue, you can give it a try. Zero said to Ai Xue.

"I'm going on a school trip...... What do you say?"

It seems to be different from what I thought before. Although Ai Xue is borrowing her body to speak, in this way, the strange cuteness of mouth fetish is finally installed on Zero's body, and there is a feeling of being cocooned and self-bound.

"Not good. Lelia objected, "While it's true to tell who's talking, you'll have to listen to the whole sentence to know that there's something weird about it." ”

"Makes sense. And 'saying' it feels silly and not good. Zero also quickly expressed his opinion, if he had to repeat this sentence countless times every day in the future, he would probably collapse.

"Inside, can I say a few words?" Ai Xue raised her hand weakly.

"This is good!" Zero suddenly shook Ai Xue's hand, "Just add 'inner one' at the beginning of the sentence, there is no sense of disobedience, and you can also identify who is talking in the first place." ”

Ai Xue clapped her hands in agreement.

[Then I'll give it a try.] 】

[Hmm.] Zero replied in the affirmative.

"Inside, introduce yourself again, my name is Ai Xue, and I will ask Senior Sister Lelia to take care of me in the future. ”

As a result, the long-agonal problem between the two was solved.

3.

"Inside, my home is in Shuanglin City, so it's very close to the sea of trees. Axel explained to Lelia.

"Maybe I'm a little tired of living in a big city for a long time, but I still yearn for the kind of slow life in a small border town. And there is also a unique scenery of the famous mainland, Shuanglin is a good place. ”

"Inside, Senior Sister Lailia praised it falsely. Ai Xue was still a little happy when she heard Lelia's praise for her hometown.

Along the way, Ai Xue and Lelia had a great chat, and Zero also gave full play to his role as a broadcast speaker. Lelia is the top level 6 powerhouse in the entire second year, and with her, there is no need to worry about any accidents on the outskirts of the forest. The current Zero and Ai Xue do not have enough self-protection ability, so Teacher Rhine also emphasized that Ai Xue must be inseparable from Lelia.

"It's getting late, let's set up camp here. As the centerpiece of the three-member group, Lelia's mention was immediately unanimously endorsed by Zero and Ai Xue.

The current time is 4:26 p.m., and Zero's perception of time finally comes in handy at this time. Since the trains in this world still use steam locomotives, the speed is much slower than that of diesel locomotives on earth. The journey lasted more than 30 hours, and many students were already exhausted. But even so, when you get out of the car, you must set up your tent as soon as possible. The tents gathered around the train were protected by the academy's instructors, and there was no need for students to carry out the vigil. During the day, the students were allowed to go into the forest to practice, but at night they had to return to their tents. Of course, if you think you're strong enough, you can take your tent deep into the forest, but camping in the forest isn't fun, and the monsters that you can easily defeat during the day may eat you to the point of not having even a bone left while you're asleep. It is also a good idea to take turns on duty at night and rest separately, but the instructors do not encourage this method, after all, the risk is still relatively large.

During this school trip, everyone had to survive in this wilderness for seven days, after which the train would return. Whether it's dying at the hands of a beast or getting lost in the forest, there are a few people who stay here forever every year, and it is not known who will fall on this year's slot. No one wants to feed the belly of a beast with their own body, or expose the corpse of the wilderness to end up as fertilizer for the trees.

The special train of the college is loaded with food, tents and other necessary survival materials, which students can use by themselves, and the college will bear all the expenses.

Without Lelia having to do it herself, the boys next to her helped carry the tent from the train. It is rare to have such a good opportunity to be courteous, so it is natural to show yourself well in front of beautiful women. Lelia is also enjoying the "privileges of girls" with peace of mind.

With the help of a few seniors I didn't know, the tent was finally set up. The first day of the school trip is coming to an end, and the instructor will not allow the students to go into the forest without permission. Next, it's time for the students to form their own teams.

A perfect team must be both offensive and defensive. Teamwork is different from individual combat, and there is a clear division of labor between offense and defense, so the combination of classes is extremely important. Mages have a strong ranged attack ability, but a general lack of defenses, which requires the excellent defense ability of the warrior class to make up for it. Moreover, the hit rate of magic also has a lot to do with the ability of the warrior class to contain Warcraft. Most of the second-year students decided on the team long before they set off, and they practiced working together in advance. After all, life is at stake, and only acquaintances can be trusted.

But for Lelia, there is no such thing. The biggest difference between a summoner and an ordinary mage is that one person is a perfect team. Actual combat is different from the ring match, due to the restrictions of the rules in the ring, it is difficult for the summoner to call all the fighters under the continuous attack of the opponent. If the rules are changed, Lelia will directly bring many babies to the field, not to mention Silva, and Leonard may not be able to bear it.

"Inside, Senior Sister Lelia, don't we really have to pull a few more people into the army?"

Ai Xue's worries are not unreasonable, unlike the vast majority of teams, Zero and Ai Xue's actual combat effectiveness is almost negligible, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is Lelia's team alone. Ai Xue's purpose on this trip is only one, that is, to catch a few magical beasts and go back to enrich his summoned beast army. The key to signing a summoning contract is to capture and submit, not kill, and in this regard, humans can obviously do better than Warcraft of the same level.

However, among the second-year students, Zero and Ai Xue have no acquaintances, and almost all of them already have their own teams, so digging into the wall is not a good phenomenon.

Just when the two were worried, Leonard actually took the initiative to find Zero and Ai Xue.

"You're friends with Icarus. ”

"Uh, yes. "Leonard's appearance was clearly unexpected.

Doesn't this guy have his own team either?

Why did you find me and Ai Xue?

Questions like these are constantly swirling in Zero's mind.

"Hey, do you know each other?" said Lelia.

"Sort of. Zero's answer was somewhat ambiguous.

"May you let me join your team, Miss Lelia?" asked Leonard politely.

Lelia was a little flattered, the other party was very sincere, and Leonard's strength had already been proven in the Freshman Tournament, and his combat effectiveness was beyond doubt. Is it just that Leonard will be able to work in tandem with his army of summoned beasts?

However, seeing that Zero and Ai Xue had already made a gesture of "welcome, welcome, warm welcome", it was difficult for Lelia to refuse.

The squad size has been expanded from 3 to 4 people, including 2 thugs and 2 soy saucers.

But that wasn't the end of it, and it wasn't long before another acquaintance came to the team.

"Isn't this Miss Lyria?"

"Ahres?"

"yes, what, aren't you welcome?"

"Nothing ......"

"Seeing you guys so lively here, how about I get a kick too?"

Is this Ahlers' application for a membership?

Also a nobleman in the royal capital, Lelia had known Ahlers for a long time. Although the two sides have not had much contact, Ahler's reputation is still very good. With Leonard's precedent, it was only natural for Ahlers to join.

"So you're here. Karl, who was in the distance, saw Alles and hurried over.

"Carl, let's join their team too, in this case, even if we go deep into the forest, there will be no problem, the opportunity is rare. ”

"I don't care, it's all up to you. Although Karl usually looks arrogant and is a little taller than Ahlers, he has never questioned Ahlers' decision, just like a little brother.

"It's a bit too flashy. Lelia looked at Zero and Snow, "Although we will protect you in battle, you should not take it lightly. ”

"By the way, please wait a minute, I'll be back right away. Leonard left a sentence inexplicably and turned away.

4.

When Leonard reappeared in front of everyone, he was followed by a pitch-black figure.

"How is he?!"

Seeing the person behind Leonard, Lelia showed a timid look as if she was facing a great enemy, and at the same time subconsciously took a step back.

"Silva ......"

Ales and Carl also frowned when they saw the current scene, but they didn't say anything.

Zero and Ai Xue are also puzzled, but it seems that Silva is very honest now, and I don't know if there is any trick in Leonard's hands.

"Actually, this guy may not be what you think. At the time, he just wanted to use his own methods to win quickly. Now, how about I apologize to the beautiful Miss Lelia?" Leonard encouraged Silva.

"......" Silva grimaced.

"In that case, there's no way, I'll announce it now-"

Leonard was halfway through his sentence when Silva bowed her head to Lyria.

"I'm sorry. Judging by the tone, Silva seemed to be a little reluctant.

"Again, be sincere. Leonard slapped Silva again.

"I'm so sorry...... What I did in the ring before was my fault, please forgive me......"

The weak tone and the sudden bow startled everyone. Is this the same Sylva as before?

However, Zero had already seen through it, and she frowned, realizing that things were not simple.

Sure enough, there is a problem! Silva is so afraid of Leonard, there must be a dirty py deal behind this!Ahem, no, there must be an ulterior secret behind this.

"In that case, then...... I'll forgive you. Facing Silva, Lelia is still a little apprehensive, but since someone has built a bridge, it is not easy to refute Leonard's face, which can be regarded as a little relief from the mustard in her heart.

"Miss Lelia, let this guy join us. Leonard said.

"What?" forgiveness forgives, but to get Silva on the team, Lelia still feels a little inappropriate. But Leonard's tone, not like a joke, was serious.

"Don't worry, as a teammate, Silva is still quite reliable. It's just that a loner like him will definitely not find a suitable team, so let's just take him in. ”

Lelia couldn't make up her mind for a while, so she had to ask everyone's opinions. Leonard naturally agreed with Silva's entry into the team, Zero and Aixue thought that Silva should be given a chance to express himself, and Allers and Karl had reservations.

"Well, we are comrades-in-arms on this school trip. Leonard said to Silva with a grin.

"You're both too abnormal today, aren't you?" said Ahlers. Regardless of Silva, Leonard's state alone made him feel very strange. Whether it is the "inch" in the class assessment or the "Heavenly Thunder Attack Sword" in the freshman competition, his various expressions all show Leonard's kingly style of "victory without destruction, hegemony without humiliation". This kind of person should be decisive on the battlefield, talk and laugh off the battlefield, and have a natural heroic temperament. And now, it seems that he is like a ruffian, holding on to Silva's pigtails and not letting go, coercing people to do such and such things.

Seeing Ahlers' strange eyes, Leonard seemed to be somewhat aware of his gaffe.

"Maybe it's been a long time since it's been so easy, don't worry about the details. ”

As one of the heirs of the Gorrik family, he is usually bound by countless rules and regulations, and he has to constantly hone his sword skills every day. After assisting Icarus to escape from Moonlight City, he is like Icarus, like a bird that has opened the cage door. As for Silva, Leonard doesn't plan to reveal his secrets, because he thinks it's interesting to play like this, and he accidentally plays with it.

Leonard knew that Silva's heart was not actually strong, he was just pretending to be strong in order to deceive outsiders and his own heart. Leonard was also quite sympathetic to him, so he didn't plan to really blackmail Silva.

"Is this the real you?" said Alles, facing Leonard.

"Why, disappointed?" said Leona playfully.

"No, it's better to say that there is an inexplicable sense of security. ”

With that, Lelia began to count the number of people and consider the accommodation of the group.

Lelia, Ai Xue, Zero, Leonard, Ales, Carl, Silva, a total of 4 men and 3 women.

"It's good for our girls to use that little one, you can build another one. Lelia gestured to the tent she had just set up, and motioned for Leonard and them to get another one.

"That's fine, guys, get to work!" Leonard shouted, and Ahlers, Karl, and Silva all got into action. The movements of the four men were quite swift, and it didn't take long for the second tent to be set up.

After dinner, everyone went to sleep, which was to go full of energy for tomorrow's hunt.
