Chapter 576 74. The Piranha in the Classroom

This semi-circular stepped classroom can accommodate at least [-] students. The semi-circular long desks are the biggest feature in this classroom. Almost all the students in our three classes are required to sit by the magic instructor. In the front row, everyone focused their attention on the round table at the center of the podium. On the round table with a diameter of two meters was a pot of very strange magic herbs. Man-eating flower, the five-pointed star-shaped petals are delicate and eye-catching, with a few silky pistils emerging from the center. The whole plant of the man-eating flower exudes a faint floral fragrance. If you don’t look carefully, it is absolutely difficult to find that its calyx is covered with barbs The same sharp teeth, just waiting for the moment when the prey comes forward, swallowing it whole in one gulp.

Teacher Fernand was wearing a black magic robe, standing on the podium with one hand on his back and licking his fat belly, holding a staff of admonishment in his hand, and the hair on his head was meticulously taken care of by him , neatly turned his back, and applied a layer of scented essential oil on his hair, his eye sockets were deeply sunken, with a pair of gray eyes, his nose bridge was a bit high, his lips looked a little thin, and his figure was slightly Standing tall and tall, standing in front of the listless piranha, he kept telling us about the characteristics of this piranha.

Apparently, the students here didn't think what Mr. Fernand said was right. Even I thought he was exaggerating. That quiet plant looks very docile!
There is no blackboard in this large stepped classroom. Mr. Fernand just stood on the central podium, and has been chattering alone for nearly 10 minutes. Standing next to the piranha, he coughed softly, Then he gently squeezed his Adam's apple with his hands, and said apologetically to the students in the audience: "Everyone, sorry, my throat is not very comfortable, please allow me to drink a sip of water, but before I come back, please Just remember, don't come to the front to touch my flower without permission, it's very dangerous."

"Okay, Mr. Fernand." The students in the audience said.

At this time, Noah, Dennis and I were sitting in the corner of the classroom and chatting secretly. The few of us were not very interested in those weird magic herbs, so we just listened to the introduction of this plant by Mr. Fernand After the weaknesses and habits of the piranha, I didn't listen to the functions of its body parts at all, because this rare piranha is very rare on the Roland continent, only in the south of Qiyan City, the southern border of the Green Empire They can only be seen in the wild swamp.

Noah was sitting between me and Dennis, his eyes secretly glanced at the large mural on the opposite wall of the classroom, a magic engraving pen on a parchment notebook, constantly outlining mountains, valleys, The rocks by the stream and the tender grass, together with his vivid description, made Dennis and I feel as if we were in it. What he described was exactly the natural scenery of his hometown—Palestina Province, which aroused him. What I was talking about was precisely the large mural on the wall of the classroom. The wall of the classroom was painted with the mountains and rivers of the Eastern Rift Valley in Palestina Province and its most distinctive vegetation. I saw the natural beauty of the Eastern Rift Valley. It made Noah look quite proud, and he even began to invite us to take advantage of the summer vacation to enjoy the natural scenery there.

Dennis seemed very interested. He came to the province of Salta, which belongs to the western foot of the Ziqing Mountains. The entire Ziqing Mountains block the southeast trade wind from the endless sea, and also block the humid air, so The entire province of Salta is dry and rainless all year round, and Dennis yearns for the lush vegetation and pleasant scenery of the Great Eastern Rift Valley.

"Jijia, in the future, we might as well set the place for the first experience in the Great Eastern Rift Valley. There are also many rare monsters there, the most famous ones are Manticore and Moonkin. Lion skin light armor is quite good." Noah put one hand on my shoulder and invited me warmly.

Thinking about the summer vacation, there is really no place to go. Maybe it would be a good choice to go to the Great Rift Valley in the East, so I readily agreed: "Okay."

"However, I saw you took out a piece of wind snake skin a few days ago. If you use it to make a pair of boots, it would be the best. I have always wanted to buy a piece in the magic store or the auction house. , It’s a pity that this kind of best-selling product is really difficult to buy, where did you buy that piece of leather? Tell me the name of that store, and I will try my luck later!” Noah asked me.

Noah has always been outspoken, and he has never known how to be frugal in his luxurious life. When he meets something he likes, he always takes out the magic crystal and buys it.

"Wind snake leather, do you want to make a pair of boots too?" I touched my nose and turned to Noah and asked.

A few days ago, I saw the Yerkes scholar take out a pair of wind snake leather boots. The style was very exquisite, so I copied the style on a piece of parchment.I was hijacked by the rebels on the airship flying to the imperial capital, and later I was attacked by a group of wind snakes near the gateway mountain of the Ziqing Mountains. After going through all kinds of difficulties and dangers, we defeated those wind snakes and captured Some wind snake skin, light feathers, and the magic crystal in the wind snake's head, and I happen to have a few pieces of the softest leather in the wind snake's belly. Seeing Yerkes take out a pair of wind snake leather boots, I think the boots are well made It was great. I remembered that I still had some wind snake leather in my backpack, so I picked out a piece and took it to the leather shop in the street market next to the college. I asked the senior leather maker in the shop to help me make a pair of boots.

I never thought that Noah would also want a pair of Wind Snake leather boots. What he is wearing now is a pair of Manticore leather boots, which are no less precious than Wind Snake skin.

Noah looked down at the half-new Manticore leather boots on his feet, hesitated and said, "These shoes are a bit old, you should get a new pair, the wind snake leather boots must be very comfortable to wear!"

I took out a piece of wind snake skin from my magic pouch, handed it directly to Noah beside me, and said to him: "Don't be so troublesome, I have half a piece left here, which is more than enough to make a pair of leather boots, here you go! "

Noah took it directly into his hand without any hesitation, and then said to me very happily: "This piece of wind snake skin is peeled off from the softest part of the abdomen, and it feels really smooth to the touch. Ji Jia, how much did you pay for it? Turn around I'll give you some magic crystals."

For these precious monster materials, it should not be scarce in the imperial capital, but the leather of this kind of wind attribute monster is very suitable for making leather boots, so even though the price of wind snake skin has been raised to an extremely high price in the magic firm, it is still popular. Many aristocrats sought after, especially the leather of this kind of wind-attribute magic beast, engraved with the wind-attribute magic pattern array on it, there will be a corresponding attribute bonus, and if it is made into a magic pattern structure, the price will double.

"I don't want your magic crystal. I gave it to you. I got it from hunting wind snakes in the eastern foothills of the Ziqing Mountains with my friends. I didn't buy it from a magic store." I fixed my eyes on the one on the central round table. A pot of piranhas, said casually.

The few students who live together in the dormitory by the pool form a small circle in the class, just like other small circles in the class, they are divided into several small groups based on the dormitory. The very rare wind snake skin was given to Noah, which also attracted the envy of other people in our small circle, but obviously everyone knows that among these people, Noah has the best relationship with me, and even the side has become an alchemy club. The new favorite Dennis is worse, so in their eyes there is only envy.

However, someone on the side still said teasingly: "Hey, Jijia, you can't favor one person over another, we are all watching eagerly here, we can't just give it to Noah, otherwise, we will be caught by those who are different from you." People who are too familiar with it can hear it in their ears, but you two can't explain it clearly!"

There was a murmur of laughter from the back row. While Mr. Fernand was drinking water, everyone relaxed, and there was a scene of chaos in the auditorium.

In my free time, I spend my free time hiding in the Magic Research Institute of the Tower of Pride, making magic pattern structures with Yerkes scholars, and the students who live in the same dormitory with these students only know each other and say hello I’m not very familiar with them, and I don’t know how to answer their jokes. On the contrary, Noah and the others are also quite familiar, and he turned around and sprayed unceremoniously: “Squat down, master, I’ll make a pair Leather boots, are you so jealous? Do you think Jijia is a leather business, and you can take out a wind snake skin casually?"

Afterwards, this piece of soft wind snake leather was passed back and forth in the hands of these students. Everyone was full of novelty about these magic materials. Not many students had seen this kind of wind snake leather, and it looked like that. He came from a well-to-do aristocratic family.

At this moment, someone who didn't know called softly: "Oh, whose magic crystal fell to the ground?"

There are nearly 150 freshmen from three magic classes gathered in the lecture theater. There are nearly [-] people in the first class of the fire department, the second class of the fire department, and the first comprehensive class. Many people are looking around after hearing this voice. My eyes are particularly sharp. It was soon discovered that on the floor in front of the podium, a piece of magic crystal kept rolling forward. I don't know whether it fell out of the student's pocket, but it rolled far away on the podium.

One magic crystal is equivalent to ten gold coins. In the Grimm Empire, one gold coin can almost make a commoner family live quietly for a whole year. One can imagine that the value of a magic crystal is quite expensive after all. It feels like A stack of hundred-dollar bills were scattered on the ground.At this time, a small student with big black glasses sitting in the front row suddenly sprang up from his seat, turned over the desk very nimbly, rolled up the sleeve of his magic robe and pointed at the magic robe rolling on the floor. Magic Crystal chased after him.

People in our small circle had no chance to rush out immediately because the seats they chose were at the back. Some people even sighed slightly because their hands were a step too slow. I was surprised to see that fell on the The magic crystal rolled out of the floor far away, feeling that something was wrong, but Noah next to me gently pulled my clothes and pouted at me.

I followed his gaze to look at the front row, but saw a few young students wearing gorgeous magic robes with different expressions. Those students all stretched their necks, looking like they were watching a show, while their What he looked at was not the landing point of the magic spar, but the little student who was rushing towards the magic spar.The banter hidden in their eyes could no longer be concealed, and it was mixed with a little bit of excitement, so that they made their mouths grow wide and their foreheads became greasy.

At this moment, my eyes saw the magic crystal jumping and rolling happily on the floor, and a virtual picture was quickly formed in the sea of ​​spirits, and the trajectory of the magic crystal rolling appeared in my mind in a blur I looked at the rolling magic crystal in amazement, and it finally landed on the round table in the center of the podium...there happened to be a pot of wilting piranhas placed on the round table there.

This pot of piranhas is raised in a flower pot, and it looks only about one meter in height. It looks like a sunflower, and it looks harmless to humans and animals.

But the little student in the robe of knowledge lowered his head, his eyes only stared at the magic crystal rolling on the ground, he didn't notice that he was constantly approaching the pot of piranhas , at this time, the magic crystal happened to hit the round table in the center of the podium, made a 'dang' sound, and then stopped.

There was a trace of concentration and joy in the eyes of the little student, his mouth seemed to be grinning to the left and right, and there seemed to be stars twinkling in his eyes, he stretched out his hand quickly, and when he was about to touch the magic crystal, It was only then that he suddenly realized that the originally noisy lecture hall had become so quiet. It was a kind of quiet that made people feel a little flustered. At the moment when he was slightly hesitant, he heard a clear and sweet voice behind him calling Said: "Don't pick up that magic crystal!"

"careful!"

"Run!"

The voices of all kinds of shouts suddenly seemed like a noisy vegetable market, which suddenly made the lecture theater chaotic and noisy. At this time, a large green leaf appeared in front of the eyes of the little boy, and the little student His face was as green as the big green leaf, he opened his mouth slightly, his eyes widened and finally he was willing to look up, in front of him was a huge mouth full of barbs , is quietly suspended above his head, the rows of extremely sharp barbs on the calyx and the rows of neat and sharp canine teeth on the stamens, even a drop of honey exuding a strong aroma drips from the end of a stamen .

Unexpectedly, when the little magic student approached the piranha, the piranha suddenly came alive, and the originally listless piranha suddenly bloomed, and the huge petals just happened to be able to completely envelop the piranha. The little mage, and it finally showed its ferocious face at this moment, as if to prove to all the magicians in the lecture hall: the plant-type monster piranha actually likes to eat people no matter what time it is.

Although the little magician is a very good magician, perhaps the best in their province before that, but at such a close distance, facing this pot of piranhas is still completely panicked, he His face turned blue, and he sat down on the ground in fright, while the piranha on top of his head had opened his mouth wide, and rushed towards the little magician without any hesitation.

"Ah!" Someone in the auditorium had already exclaimed.

And in the seats around, a magician stood up from his seat, and quickly drew a magic circle in his hand. Those light blue flames appeared in the hands of the magician, but it was too late. Finally, it fell on the piranha, but it was impossible to save the little magician, because the big mouth of the piranha was already close to the face of the little magician, as long as its huge calyx Close it gently, and completely swallow the little magician in one gulp.

I never thought that the piranha, which was only about one meter tall in the pot, would grow five times in size after meeting its prey, and it would look like a giant plant in the pot.

One ice shield...two ice shields...three ice shields...four ice shields...five ice shields!
As soon as five ice shields appeared on the little magician, the first completely blocked the piranha and the little magician, followed by the second ice shield... the third ice shield ...

The piranha swallowed an 'ice shield' completely with its huge mouth, and the cold air on the ice shield covered the piranha with a layer of frost, and then the whole piranha's movements became very sluggish. , the piranha seemed to have felt the unprecedented threat to its life, and then became even crazier. It hardly flinched or hesitated, and continued to bite the little magician, but still bit on the ice shield. The frosty aura all over the piranha became more intense.

Until the crazy piranhas smashed the five ice shields from the front in succession, finally revealing the little magician in front of him, Mr. Fernand, who was wearing a black magic robe, stood quietly beside the little magician, Holding a teaching staff tightly in his hand, staring at the piranha, frowning slightly...
