206. Unexpected invitations


The hustle and bustle of the streets woke me up from my meditations, and this time the Frost Nova magic scroll almost depleted my mana in the magic vortex, and for magic apprentices, each mana depletion would cause permanent and irreparable damage to the magic pool, which almost all subject magic instructors would take the trouble to explain in the first lesson.If it weren't for the fact that I woke up from my state of mental concentration at the last minute and stopped in time, I am afraid that I would not have been sitting on the floor and meditating so easily.I sighed in my heart: It seems that maybe only by breaking through the mana cultivation of the fifth-level magic apprentice can I try to draw this magic scroll of the frost nova again, and now I, a fourth-level magic apprentice, don't even think about this matter anymore, it is impossible to draw it successfully.Who would have imagined that such a first-level magic scroll would drain all the mana of a fourth-level magic apprentice, and only half of the magic pattern would be completed.On the magic parchment on the desk is half of the broken and unfinished magic pattern circle, because a complete array has not been formed, the magic elements in the magic ink have not formed a complete magic circle, the magic in the ink is constantly dissipating, and a very strange scene appears on the parchment, like an invisible force devouring the magic runes and magic lines on the magic parchment, those half-drawn magic lines are rapidly evaporating from my eyes in the air at a speed visible to the naked eye.A magic carving pen is lying on the parchment, and there is still a little magic ink left on the tip of the magic carving pen, carefully observe the patterns on the parchment, the complicated magic lines in the beginning of the stripes still look exceptionally clear and smooth, but in the middle of the section, there is obviously an uneven thickness, at that time the mana of the magic pool in my body has been depleted, but in the case of extreme mental concentration, with this reputation method to detect.Hearing the sound of laughter and frolic coming from outside the attic, I couldn't help but poke my head out of the attic window and saw a group of children a little younger than me playing a game of pirate king, which was a simple role-play, one side as the pirate king on the sea, and the other as a brave knight, two groups of people lined up one after the other, like two huge caterpillars, holding wooden knives and swords carved from cork, shouting and fighting together in the street, and having fun.I envy them for being able to play freely in the streets without any scruples, and dare to run wild in the streets against the vicious noon sun.After a while, I lowered the gauze curtains on both sides of the window to block the strong sunlight and prevent the light from shining directly on the desk, and then I reluctantly withdrew my gaze, sat down on the back chair with my hands on my chin, and looked boredly at the blue sky outside the window, with two clouds slowly drifting by.Because I disappeared for no reason, Fanny was worried for almost a whole day, which made her very angry, not only did she reprimand me severely, but even Tracy was severely criticized, and finally even Ryan was not spared, and she was also complained.Then she grounded me in the house, and she was worried that I would sneak out, so she let Tracy stay at home and watch me.Tracy is about to graduate this year, Stans College has no study tasks, the college just requires students to submit a simple answer sheet, but if you want to look good on your graduation certificate, you also need a beautiful field adventure report, Tracy is worried about this matter in the past two days, there is a slight footstep at the door, Tracy is wearing a cool short skirt at home, and walks in with a plate of peeled and cut melons.She frowned at the messy mess of various items on my desk, and directly savagely pushed the scrapped magical parchment aside, put down the fruit bowl in her hand, and then sat down on the chair next to me dejectedly, and asked me, "Jia, where do you think the graduation season adventure is going to be fun?"

I also have to submit a beautiful written report. ”I picked up a piece of melon from the fruit bowl and stuffed it into my mouth, this honey-like melon is very sweet, and has a unique fragrance, which is delicious.I thought for a moment before I said to her, "Let's fish the lake, it should be cooler if you camp by the lake, and the scenery there is also very good, you want to go with Arendt, right?"

”"He graduated early!"

Tracy looked out the window, and the corners of his water chestnut-shaped mouth tugged down slightly."

AhhI don't know how to describe my surprise at the moment, is it really necessary to rush into the army before graduation?

Tracy blew upwards, the short hair on his forehead was blown up, and then fell back down before he shrugged his shoulders and said, "He passed the warrior qualification exam last week, and he has submitted an application for early graduation to the academy, and if it goes well, he will report to the North Wind Legion in Sloitt City this week." ”"He went to join the army at this time?

Joining the army at this time?

”I opened my mouth wide in surprise, looking at Tracy who didn't have any change in expression, I don't know why she can still sit here so calmly at this time, shouldn't she spend more time with Arendt at this time?

After all, it was the most important event in Arendt's life, and Tracy was irritated and shoved a piece of melon into my mouth, giving me an angry look."

Is there anything you can't do?"

Tracy asked me willfully.Of course not, at this time, Arendt went to the North Wind Legion alone, doesn't that mean that this relationship between the two of you has come to an end, and Arendt can be regarded as a deserter!

I wanted to go on and say something, but seeing Tracy's weak appearance, it occurred to me that something must have gone wrong between the two of them.As soon as I thought of this, I immediately shut up, I didn't want to provoke a woman who had just fallen out of love at this time, seeing that she was unusually calm at the moment, I didn't know what kind of storm was hidden under her calm appearance.I thought a little weakly: couldn't it be that I broke their intimacy that day, so that the conflict broke out between the two of them, and then it turned into a quarrel, and then it intensified, and finally it reached the point of being out of control!

The room suddenly became extremely quiet, and the smell of embarrassment permeated the room.Suddenly there was a knock at the door that freed me from the crack in the floor, and I hurriedly ran downstairs and said, "I'll open the door." ”Outside the door stood a man who could wear a white shirt with the taste of an aristocratic dress, his smile charming and deep, a delicate pistol hanging from his waist, a gorgeous sword hanging on the other side, his hair meticulously combed, and he looked polite standing outside the door."

Benjamin Senpai!"

I didn't expect him to come to my house, although we have been friends several times, but it is also a general friendship, and there is no deep past, why did he come here?

I drew a question mark in my mind.I couldn't help but blurt out to him, "Why did you come?"

”He always maintained the demeanor of an aristocratic gentleman, and when he spoke, he would appear very humble and unrelenting, and he smiled mildly and said, "Don't you invite me in to sit down?"

”"Oh, please come in, please come in!"

I was a little at a loss and didn't know how to entertain him.Sitting on the sofa in the living room, he casually looked at the chandelier on the ceiling, the closet on the wall, a few simple oil paintings on the wall, and the soft blanket on the floor. ”Benjamin smiled and said to me: "Don't you always want to watch the underground black boxing match in the underground martial arts field, the black boxing match is not every day, there is just one the day after tomorrow, while you are on vacation at home, I will come to you, I want to ask if you are still going?"

”"AhhOf course I want to go. ”I didn't expect Benjamin to come out of no, it turned out to be for this purpose.For me, the underground black boxing must be to be seen, the message that Jonbach left me said that Breguet and Hamasaki are hiding in the underground boxing market in El City, and usually rely on the underground black boxing tournament to make a living, I want to see how they are doing, I have been thinking about them for so many years, when I was in the wasteland, if they hadn't forced me hard, I wouldn't have exposed my magical talent.If I hadn't exposed my talent and provoked the evil mage Mondtroia, how could Sister Gogo be killed by that evil mage?

Now that Sister Guoguo has left, leaving two younger sisters, Anne's current life is not bad, but Su has a little trouble, which gives me a little headache.Although my heart was a little heavy, I still smiled at Senior Benjamin and said, "I originally thought you wanted to be a carrier pigeon for you when I went back to school!"

”He chased Sophie, the assistant teacher of the water magician of the Academy of Magic, and it had caused a storm in the city.Tracy brought two cups of tea from the kitchen, and she changed into a modest dress and walked out of the kitchen like a sister next door."

This is my sister Tracy."

I said to Benjamin first, and then to Tracy, "This is my senior, Benjamin of the Warrior Academy!"

”Tracy looked very decent in front of outsiders, she naturally sat next to me, very quietly listened to me and Benjamin casually chatting all over the world, and did not interject, when she was quiet, she was still a beautiful woman with a lot of taste, especially her shapely figure and long legs were the most attractive.We talked about a lot of topics, at first it was when did the boring campus profession of carrier pigeon become popular, Tracy heard Benjamin say that I was the most industrious carrier pigeon in the college, and for a while he also laughed back and forth, I didn't expect me to have such an image, which was considered very approachable by the students in the school.Tracy then said that Stans College also had carrier pigeons.I don't think if it weren't for Sophie's tutor in our water magic class, I probably wouldn't have been the most popular pigeon.Then we talked about this martial arts competition held at the War Academy, the Soul Squad is a strong dark horse, and one of the sixteen teams that have already qualified for the competition is destined to accept the challenge of our Soul Squad, but now the list of opponents has been determined, and it is the miracle team without Simon Joe.Benjamin said in amazement: "I originally thought that you would choose a weak team, but I didn't expect the captain of your War Spirit Squad to choose a team with the overall strength of the top three teams in the War College. ”Finally Benjamin asked me, "Oh, by the way, Jiga, are you going to be in the next battle?"

”I shook my head with a wry smile and said to him: "Probably not, the last time I was able to play was an accident, the captain Renard and Anne were injured, there are only six people in their team, you can't only play four people at the beginning, I am just temporarily filled." ”Benjamin smiled dumbly and said, "Probably the boys at the Steel Barrier won't know that the Battle Spirit Squad was only asked to play in order to make up the number of participants."

But this time it was an eye-opener for those boys, even if they were auxiliary type magic apprentices, in the martial arts arena, as long as they were used and coordinated properly, they could exert their strong strength!

Looking forward to seeing each other in the game. ”"We'll definitely meet, but it's unclear whether I'll play or not," I replied.Later, talking about the recent chaos in the city, from the discovery of Cerberus in the city to the mess every day, Benjamin continued: "It seems that the North City has been in chaos in the last two days, and those city hall officials have done nothing, and the cost of managing the city has increased year by year, but the effect has not been as good as year by year.The garbage on the streets of the slums has not been cleaned up for three days, it is like a large garbage dump!

”The thought that those orcs were brought into the Xinliu Valley by me caused the chaos in the city for a short period of time made me feel a little weak.Finally, Benjamin explained his intentions, and he said to me very formally: "Actually, there is one thing I want to ask you for!"

”"Me?"

I looked at this fourth-year senior of the Warrior Academy in surprise, it is said that he is one of the three giants of the Warrior Academy along with Simon Joe and Keppel, but he does not have the demeanor of a boss, and looks more like a playboy.I asked him, "Is there anything I can do to help you?"

”"That's right, during the summer vacation, our team wants to go to the edge of the Ziqing Mountain Range to explore, I have prepared the topographic map of the mountains over there, and will also find a local person as our guide to lead the way, there is a friend on the side of the temple who is a priest apprentice, she will temporarily join my team to ensure the safety of each of us, we have done a good job of preparing for this expedition."

Benjamin told me about the strength of their team, and he spoke with a smug look in his words.I think he has the capital to be proud, and he has made the plan of action for this expedition very detailed and thorough, and even invited the priest apprentices in the temple to participate in the expedition, which is really good.But he said to me, "But that's not enough, I want you to join us on our summer wilderness adventures." ”"I, why did you come to me?

Didn't your team have healing prayers from priestly apprentices?

I'm not very good at anything other than ice shield and hydrotherapy, so what's the use of me?

”I asked Benjamin, puzzled.Benjamin finally said: "Actually, as we did at the beginning, it was for the sake of an adult two-headed flame snake lizard that we discovered the secret lair of the demonic beast, and this time we went to hunt it.Because it is a fire-attribute magical beast with powerful fire-attribute magic skills, we would like to ask you to use the ice shield technique to restrain the fire-based magic of the two-headed flame snake lizard" It turned out that he wanted to invite me to join his team and go on an adventure together in the summer!

I was a little hesitant to say yes to their invitation, because it was a rare opportunity.At this time, Tracy, who was sitting next to me, looked at me with a look of hope on his face, as if he was waiting for my happy promise to be continued.
