Chapter 175
Just as the admission trial of St. Peter's College in 2733 was about to come to an end, Su Wen's expected emergencies occurred in the arena, which pushed the climax that was about to cool down to the peak.
"This is... the location of the image has returned to the trial space, and the trial has not ended completely. Mr. Gray, this situation has not been common in previous years. Did those participants who have not entered the final trial have created any major events worth replaying in the camera?"
"When you asked this, you actually guessed something, and they were likely to succeed, didn't they?"
"Haha, then let's wait and see... Look, this is a forest covered with snow-covered coniferous forests. This kind of pine tree often grows in the northwest of the empire, north of the northern plateau city. God, I've been there once before, and the climate there is really bad."
"Shh, did you see that anyone is lurking here."
Driven by the atmosphere of the two, many spectators who had already left returned to their seats. Almost everyone stared at the light curtain in the center of the square, trying to find the "Lander" mentioned by Mr. Grey. Of course, there are exceptions. For example, Alex next to Suwen was giggling without focusing, holding a lot of betting coupons in his arms, as if his body was hollowed out, and he was smirking endlessly.
Su Wen picked up one of them and looked carefully. He found that the betting content was that Prince Reinhardt survived and won the first place in the total score.
Oh, it actually made a profit.
Although Prince Reinhardt himself is the most popular in total score during the assessment and the odds are definitely scary, because Alex's bet amount this time is too large, if all these bet coupons are exchanged for cash, I am afraid that the gold coins earned can be used to take a shower.
Should this be said to be a fool, be blessed?
As for the figure in the light curtain, Su Wen discovered it as early as the first time.
In a large bush between the three cedars, the figure that Su Wen was not unfamiliar with was lurking quietly. Hathaway, her disguise was very good, and her light silver robe that was inseparable from the snow almost made her disappear in this snowfield. But her condition was obviously very poor, which could be seen from the fact that she needed to disguise and avoid, rather than just using the hiding technique and the floating technique to leave casually.
Just as most viewers were still searching for figures on the light curtain, violent elemental fluctuations suddenly broke out in this coniferous forest, and more figures surrounded from far to near in order from all directions. They were all well-equipped magicians, divided into squads that looked like a whole, and each team had an attacking magic array formed by magic chains.
From these people's faces, Su Wen could see fatigue, anxiety, and excitement.
According to what he saw on the ship before, Su Wen knew that the trial group led by Ai Zheqin did not completely enter the final trial, but part of them were sent out to pursue and encircle Hathaway. Su Wen left for a long time and did not witness the specific process, but from the words of the two commentators, they obviously had long been looking forward to it.
But even though he was prepared, the number of people present far exceeded Su Wen's expectations. There were nearly a hundred people who appeared on the light curtain at this moment. In addition to the ship, those who had suffered previous wars, most of all the magic apprentices who participated in the trial were related to the Trial Group. Combined with the brief dialogue between Prince Reinhardt and Ai Zheqin, Su Wen's keen intuition seemed to have made him read something from it.
This Ai Zheqin will one day make some big news and wait and see.
"Mr. Gray, it seems that this is the final battle. Since the final trial has ended, the trial space will be forced to close. It should be less than ten minutes. Let's see if this genius who has successfully aroused public anger in the trial space can withstand the anger of everyone!"
"Yes, just like those times before, they still chose to surround and carry out indiscriminate bombardment. After being marked by the member of the trial team who did not want to be named, all the advantages of the witch Hathaway were gone, and she also changed from an elusive killer to a rat chasing the street, and the situation completely reversed."
"Then the trial points, I think even if she is killed, she probably won't spit it out."
"You're right. If I were her, I would kill myself first. Then even if I die, I will go directly to the settlement without dropping points. The witch Hathaway obviously came for the first place in the standings. She had no reason not to do this... Wait, my goodness, I hope this will not set an example for future freshmen of the Magic Academy. If the next trialists are inspired and several Hathaways suddenly pop up, that would be a big fun."
"Hey, Mr. Gray, the offense has begun!"
As the commentator finished speaking, the members of the trial group who were surrounding this coniferous forest, the magic array above each team also extended a bridge formed by elements, connecting them together to form a whole, that is, a huge magic array composed of 12 small magic arrays. Although the operation of this magic array is only dozens of magic apprentices who are difficult to release even three-ring magic, the momentum that makes the world change color at this time can even be comparable to the five-ring spell that can only be released by a great magician.
Su Wen could see clearly that what was commanding the huge magic circle was formed was the House from the Imperial War Mage Group.
The magic circle began to rotate slowly, and a faint light of fire element was output from each magic apprentice and poured into it, causing the area of one kilometer diameter covered by it to slightly change color. These fire elements condensed at various hubs of the magic circle, and returned to form one miniature fireball after another, and then fell like raindrops under the eaves, continuing to condense and fall...
Like rain, the fireball that was close to the fire rushing technique fell into the snow, stirring up a large area of steaming smoke; it fell on the tree branches, causing a fierce explosion; it fell into the withered shrub covered by snow, causing a blazing burning. Su Wen looked at the initial hidden place and found that Hathaway had disappeared. Obviously she did not intend to sit there just like this.
"Come on, concentrate on attacking from the third hub!"
Su Wen heard the faint shout from House, and the fire element that was undergoing an indiscriminate attack suddenly gathered towards a place. The miniature fireball bombarded dozens of meters of space below it like a storm.
The bombardment lasted for two minutes. The third hub of concentrated firepower continued to move under the command of House. Until Su Wen could clearly see that the trialists present were a little out of breath. Even when the magic array in the sky began to fade faintly, an inconspicuous white light finally rose, and shocking cheers burst out in the ring arena at the same time...
Well, those who call the most are definitely betting on the audience who win the Trial Group.
Su Wen felt that they were lucky because the result was no suspense at the moment.
——Separation line—
The final trial points ranking was beyond many people's expectations. Hathaway was not the first scorer, but Hela Oran, Hathaway's younger brother. For many people who don't know the truth, this was obviously Hathaway who thought of a way to transfer the points to his younger brother, but for Su Wen, who almost knew everything, the news was very interesting.
"Hela..."
Su Wen tskated. It turned out that there was not only one person who had been conducting sneak attacks everywhere and following the trial team from the beginning. Hela always existed with Hathaway, but no one had ever discovered it, including those outside the field who were staring at the light curtain image from the perspective of God. Because Hathaway did not transfer the trial points to Hela, she did not have such an opportunity, or in other words, she had almost never collected any trial points in person. From beginning to end, the plundered points entered Hela's account.
Of course, this kind of thing can't be hidden from the magicians who maintain the operation of the trial space. Since they have expressed their acquiescent to this, it means that this is not just a farce for children.
This is the trial of St. Peter's Academy. The most elite new generation mainstay of the empire expressed their existence for the first time. For those unknown but ready-to-go true geniuses, this is the place where their catapults started and soared into the sky. The biggest beneficiary of this trial was Aizheqin, who had once strengthened the trial group, followed by Hathaway, who was called the witch. It doesn't take long for their names to become extremely loud in this magical city and become the most fiery and hot-handed focus.
Perhaps, the real accident was the only one who looked lazy but suddenly appeared.
Su Wen is really glad that he was not completely involved.
Then, go home.
Su Wen felt that these noises would only be farther and farther away from him in the future. He did not forget his original intention of coming to St. Peter's College, which was to find ways to make himself stronger. As for what to do after becoming stronger, it would not be too late to think about it at that time.
...
Alex, who won the money, was very excited and said that she would still have a while in the afternoon celebration, so Su Wen returned to Tulip Apartment alone.
The house was very quiet. Su Wen came to the door of Liticia's room and stayed for a while and found that it was very quiet inside, but there were a little heavy breathing sound from time to time. The half-elf maid seemed to be sleeping uneasy. Su Wen quietly pushed the door and found that Liticia on the bed was frowning. The temperature was not very hot, but there were many beads of sweat on her forehead.
After hesitating for a moment, Su Wen finally made up his mind and took out the amulet like water drops given to him by the mysterious character, and gently placed it on Liticia's chest.
In just a few minutes, Liticia's breathing became much smoother.
It does work.
