Chapter 491 Mysterious Fragments

Chapter 491 Mysterious Fragments

Misty Forest, Pamir College.

Since it was the middle of the Hearthfire Month, Pamir College was in the annual recruitment period. Many college guides who had accepted the mission were in their respective areas, waiting for the arrival of new students.

Without any warning, in front of everyone's surprised gaze, a strange small airship suddenly broke into the academy's maze and slowly landed at the airport terminal.

The ice-blue crystal bird emblem was branded on the side of the airship. In the shining sun, the eternal crown pattern surrounding the emblem sparkled and attracted people's attention.

With a faint wave of magical power, the hatch slid open silently, and the metal gangway covered with a red carpet slowly descended to the ground.

Greeted by two academy wizards, Anvis slowly stepped off the family's alchemical airship. His exquisite earth dragon leather boots made a rustling sound as they stepped on the solid black stone floor of the dock.

Behind him, the silver-white alchemical airship gradually rose and then disappeared into the light golden clouds illuminated by the morning sun.

"Sir Anvis, this is your new college ID card. Your previous residential college is still reserved for you. You can go and receive it at any time."

After Avis stood firm, one of the guiding mages stepped forward, took out an identity card and handed it to Avis.

"In addition to your previous credit balance, there are an additional 5,000 credits, which is the academy's compensation for your previous attack."

"Okay, thank you for your help, Mr. Guide."

Anvis nodded calmly without saying anything more. He just took the ID card and left for his residence.

This was his personal compensation. When the enemy attacked before, the trap he set in his own courtyard was triggered, triggering the maze alarm, which scared away the enemy.

As for the matter of Fiona being taken away by the enemy, the compensation issue will be discussed separately between Pamir Academy and the family, and it has nothing to do with Avis.

Soon, his former residence came into his sight.

A year and a half later, the traces of the elemental explosion in the courtyard have been covered by weeds. The emerald green climbing plants have spread to the outer wall of the small building, and lavender flowers are blooming.

After spending half a day using magic to refurbish his residence, Avis took out a pile of letters from the magic mailbox, then took down the "Do Not Enter" sign on the courtyard fence gate and returned to his residence.

In half a day, I believe that the news of his return should have reached the ears of many people.

Just as Anvis had expected, in the following days, many people came to visit one after another with their own thoughts.

The ones who arrived the fastest were the descendants of the other three major families, as well as the ninth prince Lan Nuo and others.

They were the most well-informed. For major events like Avis's return, they had already been notified when Avis boarded the airship to the academy.

Later, he was visited by his friends such as Harvey, Hillary, and the female knight Erica.

Albins himself was currently conducting an important magic experiment and could not leave for the time being, but he also controlled a constructed clone to meet with Avis and exchanged identity marks again.

At the same time, while he was away from Pamir, Claire, who had already left the college, sent him several letters.

She shared her travel experiences in it, and attached some magical images of ruins and antiquities, as well as some small items found in the ruins.

For example, there are weird eyeball sculptures, silver pendants engraved with twisted stars, runes carved from black stones, light green fossil flakes, etc.

Looking at these magical images and souvenirs, Anvis could imagine her thrilling escape from the collapsed ruins.

However, when he picked up the last letter sent by Claire, the old secret scripture hanging around his waist suddenly flashed.

This immediately attracted Avis' attention. He opened the letter and poured out a piece of dark blue fragment about the size of a fingernail from the envelope.

The material of this fragment seems to be some kind of crystal, but it shines with a bright metallic luster, and there are several parallel scratches on the surface. Due to its small size, its original shape cannot be distinguished.

Avis picked up the fragment and held it in his hand. It felt very light, not even as heavy as ice of the same volume.

He noticed that the Secret Scripture of the Old Ones did flicker slightly as he held up the fragment, but it did not change further.

Somewhat concerned about this change, Avis looked at the content and time of the letter.

The letter was sent by Claire four months ago. In the letter, the half-elf girl told about a secret ancient ruins group she found in the Lost Desert, as well as some strange traces of prehistoric civilization therein.

She found the fragment on an altar in the ruins. Since she couldn't tell its specific material, she sent it to Anvis to see if she could figure out its purpose.

After repeatedly testing the fragment, Avis finally found that he couldn't tell what it was through these conventional identification magics.

After thinking for a moment, Avis contacted the head of the family and asked him to investigate Claire's whereabouts as soon as possible.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Then, he took the fragment into the underground laboratory, ready to use a special magic spectrum analyzer to determine the specific elemental composition of the fragment. . ….….In Avis's research, half a month passed in a flash.

Avis has not had a smooth time during this period. The progress of instrument analysis has been unexpectedly slow, and the testing progress has only been about halfway completed so far.

The family's intelligence agency also failed to find Claire. They only found out that she entered the Lost Desert alone and her whereabouts were unknown afterwards.

Under such circumstances, Avis came to the advanced mystic course classroom after a long absence, ready to change his mood.

"Today, I will tell you about the legendary seventh-level mystical spell 'Limited Wishing'!"

In the center of the wide casting field, there is a huge magic circle with dark red main lines, as if drawn with the blood of some creature, emitting a faint magical glow.

Several mermaid candles with leaping blue flames are scattered at the six corners of the core of the ritual array, making the indoor atmosphere very mysterious.

Standing at the core of the magic circle, in front of a huge black crystal ball that was half a person's height, the silver-haired female mentor Nancy pushed her silver-rimmed glasses and looked at the many students on one side of the ritual magic circle.

"Most wish magic is actually like a sleight of hand. All it does is to 'realize' wishes through ordinary means, using magic to make up for the unreasonableness of the process."

The lenses reflected the dancing blue light, and Nancy's eyes slowly swept across everyone's faces.

"Perhaps you will wish for some treasure, such as dragon scales, which may cause a dragon to fly over your residence. Or simply a dragon's space teleportation may fail and it may be teleported directly to your home.

Then, under the effect of the wish magic, it dropped a scale. But here, the effect of the wish magic ended.

Most importantly, this does not mean that the dragon itself cannot feel the influence of the wish magic, so you will have to face the wrath of a dragon. "
