Age of Mysticism

  Chapter 204 Doubt

  Clear Sky resolutely refused to hand over the Book of Calamity, which made Vice President Elway very embarrassed. He originally wanted to use this opportunity to establish his prestige in Oulu College, but so many college administrators couldn't hold back a new elf professor.

  The gap in strength prevents Vice President Elway from using force to **** it. Besides, there are rumors that Qingkong is the disciple of Dean Willred. This elf is very popular in Oulu Academy and Raging Waves City. Without conclusive evidence, she must not be touched.

  But... just let her go?

  Recently, many rumors about the disaster a hundred years ago have suddenly appeared in the college. For students who are extremely curious, these rumors can have very little warning effect. Most students just feel stimulated and will make a lot of outrageous actions.

  Deputy Dean Elway could sense that a dangerous turbulence was brewing inside the college, and the appearance of the black eclipse made him bear a lot of pressure.

  The past disaster must not happen again in the academy.

Vice-President Elway did not retreat in the face of Qingkong's arrogance: "Professor Qingkong, without evidence, the college will not attack any faculty members or students for no reason. If you insist on keeping the book of calamity, We will not take coercive measures.

  But since the crisis has emerged, the college must take precautions.

  I have a few requests for the Department of Mysteries: First, before the matter is clarified or Dean Will Reid returns, the Department of Mysteries will stop enrolling students and faculty members. "

Qingkong withdrew the pressure on Elvi, his eyes returned to normal tender green, and he answered without much consideration: "Yes. This incident clearly shows signs of targeting me and the Department of Occult Arts. The Department of Occult Arts is not suitable for this matter." Scale up."

   "Second, the Department of Mystic Arts must cooperate with the academy's investigation, and your occult research topics must be disclosed to the academy."

  Qing Kong thought about it and replied: "It is the responsibility of the Department of Occult Arts to cooperate with the academy's investigation, but it is somewhat difficult for us to disclose the research topics of Occult Arts. Don't treat the Department of Occult Arts as a suspect. The Department of Occult Arts needs protection at this time."

   "Professor Qingkong, the academy's investigation of the Department of Occult Arts is to eliminate the suspicion of the Department of Occult Arts."

"Whether there is any problem with the Department of Occult Arts, we will check ourselves. Occult art research is highly private and accidental, and outside interference will seriously affect the progress of Occult Art research. If you want to know anything, you can contact me, and I will try my best to answer your questions." question."

   Qing Kong firmly grasped the Department of Occult Arts, preventing anyone's influence from infiltrating. Although the Department of Occult Arts has nothing to do with the abyss, some research cannot be known to outsiders.

   "Professor Qingkong, the Department of Occult Arts belongs to the academy. What you do will only increase your suspicion."

"I am very suspicious in your eyes now, and I don't care about adding a little more." Qingkong put on a magician hat: "As long as I am the head of the Department of Occult Arts, I will protect the Department of Occult Arts for a day. It is your responsibility to find out the truth." Things, don't provoke me until you have evidence and results."

  Clear Sky took a last look at the black eclipse spirit in Professor Lennon's hand, ignored the school administrators who were all over the room, and walked out alone without listening to Dean Elway's request.

   "Vice President Elway, what should we do?"

   "The Book of Calamity is very dangerous in Qingkong's hands."

   "Yeah, she is a very young elf, but she has such terrifying strength. We can't be sure... whether this is the power obtained from the abyss."

   "We can write to Dean Willred to let the dean know what happened here."

Deputy Dean Elway said: "We should write to Willred to inform him of the things here. But Willred is not here, so it may not be able to give us the correct guidance. Things have not developed to the point where he needs to As for the degree of urgency, let's first investigate the source of this black eclipse spirit.

  Professor Lennon, what kind of assistance do you need from the academy for your battle mages? "

  Professor Lennon's hands formed a protective shield to protect the glass bottle containing the black eclipse spirit inside, so that the glass bottle was not damaged in the confrontation just now.

  The black eclipse spirit in the bottle kept attacking his hands.

   "Battle mages need to activate some of the equipment in the academy's arsenal. If the truth really points to the clear sky, battle mages need to have the strength to fight her."

  Professor Lennon's request made Vice President Elway deep in thought.

  The Oulu Academy's arsenal stores the magic and alchemy achievements developed since the establishment of the academy. Some things inside are unique because of the death of the magician or the rarity of materials. Dean Will Reed's Ruihuo wand is a collection in the academy's arsenal, which shows how superb the equipment is.

   The Oulu Academy Armory has always been the last line of defense to protect the academy. The disaster a hundred years ago was the opening of the academy's arsenal, which allowed the Oulu battle mages to finally defeat the abyss mages who had thrown themselves into the abyss.

  The arsenal is in a strong independent space, and the key to enter is in charge of the dean. When the dean needs to leave the college, it will be temporarily handed over to the person acting as the dean in case of emergency.

  Before Dean Willred went to the imperial capital this time, he handed over the magic key of the arsenal to Vice President Elway.

  The strength that Qingkong just demonstrated, it is impossible for the academy to subdue her without making a major sacrifice. And once there is evidence that Clear Sky is touching the Abyss, the Oulu Battlemage will have to face this fearsome opponent head on.

  However, opening the arsenal of the academy will also have major hidden dangers.

  Elvi finally realized the weight of the burden on Willred's shoulders. As the dean of Oulu College, every decision on such a major matter...cannot be wrong.

   "If necessary, I will open the academy's arsenal to battle mages. But now we have only discovered a black eclipse spirit, and there are some rumors from unknown sources. Things are far from uncontrollable.

   Now we have to maintain the stability of the academy and not let panic spread. What students need is not this kind of pressure, but the atmosphere of learning.

  About the matter of the Black Corrosion Spirit, it is not allowed to tell anyone except those who know it now. The battle mage secretly investigated, kept a low profile externally, and was strict internally, trying to find the place where it first appeared as soon as possible.

   After you go back, you must stop the rumors from a hundred years ago from continuing to spread in the campus. Give students more homework so they have less time to mess around. "

  The administrators of all the colleges replied together: "Yes, Vice President Elway."

  Elway finally told Professor Lennon: "Battle mages try to avoid directly investigating the Department of Occult Arts and Clear Sky. If you find any clues related to them, let me know first, and we can figure out a solution together."

   "I understand, Vice President Elway."

   "Okay, everyone, go back first. The academy will not wrong a good person, nor will it allow gangsters to act recklessly here!"

  An emergency high-level meeting of the academy held due to the appearance of the black eclipse spirit ended. The college is running according to its schedule, and everything is still a relaxed learning atmosphere, and an investigation into a potential crisis is quietly going on without the students noticing.

  After Qingkong returned to the Department of Mystic Arts, he synthesized his existing clues and analyzed who was behind the scenes.

   I have to admit that what the other party did this time is much better than the two visits to the Abyss Temple to make trouble. A black eclipse spirit put himself and the Department of Occult Arts as suspects, and also chose a time when Will Reid was away. The distrust caused obvious divisions within the academy.

  Clear Sky summoned the Book of Calamity, a mysterious brick-like prop floating in her palm.

  The opponent's purpose...is the book of calamity?

  Jen Ferney asked at this time: "Professor Qingkong, you have been worried since you came back from Vice President Elway. Is that really a black eclipse?"

Clear Sky took back the Book of Calamity, and then replied to Jennifer: "It's a black eclipse, but I don't know where it came from. The battle mages are investigating, and I believe there will be results soon. "

Jenny said worriedly: "Before that disaster happened, there were many black eclipses in the college, and some faculty members and students were infected by them. The college invested a lot of manpower and material resources in researching this kind of thing, until the abyss mage Start the attack, we know it from the depths can affect the human mind.

  Professor Qingkong, if one black eclipse is found, there may already be more black eclipse spreading inside the academy. "

Clear Sky considered Jenny's worries, and comforted her: "The Book of Calamity is in my hands. I have never used it to open the abyss, so the black corrosion spirit I discovered must be left over from a hundred years ago. No matter it comes from the abyss Temples, or other means, the number will not be many.

  But your worry is not unreasonable. There may still be black eclipse spirits in other parts of the academy, and some people may be infected by it. "

   "Professor Clear Sky, what should we do?"

Qingkong said: "Although this matter was handed over to the battle mages by Vice President Elway to investigate, we can't wait for the news without doing anything. You have experienced the disaster a hundred years ago... Will this cause you Bad memory?"

  Jenferni straightened her hair that covered her eyes, and said with firm eyes: "The bad memories have reappeared, and running away is useless. A hundred years ago, my companions and I gave our lives for the academy, and I am still willing to fight for the academy a hundred years later.

  Professor Qingkong, if you have any tasks, you can entrust them to me with confidence. "

   Jennifer is full of fighting spirit, as if she has returned to the time point a hundred years ago. At that time the academy was overwhelmed by war, and innocent people died under the indiscriminate attacks of the abyss mages. These students were recruited as Oulu battle mages, and repeatedly competed with the abyss mages for every building and every room in the college.

  The abyss mages embracing the abyss are powerful, and they, the student army, are dying to fight against them, but no one backs down.

  Feeling Jenferni's fighting spirit, Qing Kong said with a smile: "Don't be so pessimistic. Creating tension in the academy and making us all suspicious is exactly the enemy's goal this time.

  Since the black eclipse is investigated by the battle mages, let's find out how the rumors related to the disaster of a hundred years ago spread.

   Didn't you say that there are senior boys who like to chat with you? "

  Jenferni, who was about to give it a go, suddenly became shy after being teased by Qingkong.

   "I know my situation. I need to drink blood and wine to keep my body temperature the same as ordinary people. If people find out, they will treat me as an undead vampire. I never talked to them too much..."

  Although Jenny does not need to drink dragon's blood wine now, she still needs to drink specially prepared blood wine on a regular basis in order to maintain a healthy state.

   "Vampires don't dare to walk in the sun." Qing Kong said: "Those boys who only pay attention to your appearance will not find out your real situation.

  My appearance is too eye-catching, and students won't tell me much truth. There are not many students who know you in the academy, and you are very familiar with what happened a hundred years ago... Distinguishing rumors and finding the source of suspiciousness is the task I give you. "

   Rumors will gradually change in taste during the rebroadcasting process. Jenny can tell the original appearance of the rumors, which helps to find the source in reverse.

   "Yes, Professor Qingkong, leave this matter to me."

   "Don't be too anxious. These tricks from the other party are far from what they want. The main job of the Department of Occult Arts is teaching tasks, and investigations can be done in spare time."

   "I understand, Professor Clear Sky."

  At this time, Vice President Elway's office turned into a water curtain hole, and the ice layer created by the clear sky was melting, making the room feel like it was raining.

  Several magic teachers used magic to guide the water to flow into the sewer in the wash room in the side room, while baking important items and documents to keep them dry.

  Deputy Dean Elway sat there, frowning in front of the desk that had turned into a big ice cube, everyone could see that he was very angry.

  The teaching staff who cast the spell were also cautious, for fear of offending the vice president and getting angry.

  A teaching assistant put his hands on the ice cube on the desk, and as the ripples of fire color emerged from his hand, the ice cube split instantly. He raised his hands, and the ice cubes peeled off from the desk, and then flew up with his control.

  In the air, the ice cubes melted quickly and formed a large water mass.

  The assistant teacher shook his hand, and the water ball turned into a stream of water and flew towards the bathroom. Standing at the door of the washroom is an instructor, who is responsible for converging the water coming from all directions, and finally directing the water into the sewer.

  Cleaning is proceeding in an orderly manner.

"Master Vice President..." the assistant was drying the items on the desk, and whispered to Elway: "Even Dean Willred would not treat you like this. You have dedicated your life to Oulu College, you are respected by all the staff and students. You and the dean are teachers and students as well as close friends. This is why the dean left the college and entrusted everything here to you.

  But Professor Qingkong made this place look like this.

  I don't know why Dean Willred defends this elf so much, and even has the idea of ​​entrusting the future of the academy to her.

  Look at what she did, relying only on force, completely unreasonable, and completely disregarding the relationship with her colleagues. I dare not imagine, if she becomes the dean of Oulu College in the future, what she can bring the college to look like.

  Anyway, I will never stay here, it is too close to the abyss. "

   This place is too close to the abyss!
