Chapter 83 How could Lanqi be the principal?
A layer of strange crimson adhered to the emerald green leaves of the plants. Drops of blood slowly slid down the petals, breaking the silence with a pungent smell.
The cultist Lilette tried hard to suppress the joy that welled up in her heart and prevent the corners of her mouth from trembling.
She was sure that Hyperion would never dare to attack [Immortal Mercury].
Because once Hyperion gets close, she will also need to be on guard against Lilette and [Immortal Mercury] secretly cooperating to attack her.
Only Lilette dared to kill [Immortal Mercury] with confidence and boldness.
For Hyperion, this is actually an invisible dead end!
far away.
As if she had figured this out, Hyperion sat down on the ground with a look of despair.
And Lilette ran towards [Immortal Mercury] without hesitation.
“…”
Lanqi's eyes moved slightly away from the page and caught a glimpse of Lilette who was madly killing the summoned beast.
This criminal seemed to be very keen on directing and acting in his own drama, and he would let the silver alien counterattack him from time to time. It looked like he was really a mortal enemy of this summoned creature, and was doing his best to put the blame on Hyperion.
Lanqi turned his head again and looked at Hyperion lying on the ground.
Just happened to meet her gaze.
Lanqi blinked quietly.
It means the plan works.
“…”
Hyperion's eyes were full of speechlessness and helplessness.
She felt that even if Lanqi took the two demon teachers to hold back the cultists, they would not necessarily lose.
Of course, it would be best if we could win without bloodshed.
However, Hyperion suspected that Lanci just wanted to see the cultists collapse when they finally learned the truth and discovered that their IQ had been played.
…
A few minutes later.
On a messy botanical garden lawn, after the joint efforts of the director of the magic department and Lilette, they finally succeeded in destroying the silver alien summoned creature.
Lilette breathed a sigh of relief and looked in the direction of the principal.
She believes the mechanism has been successfully passed.
Next, the principal will help her deal with the Duchess.
However.
This feeling of security lasted for less than a second. The moment she relaxed, a dead and inhuman magical power attacked her from the side, like thunder in the sky, without any warning.
That was a sneak attack from the head of the magic department.
Lilette's reaction was extremely quick. She sensed the danger almost instantly and bent her body reflexively to avoid the fatal attack.
Even so.
Her outer garment was still cut by the magic power, and blood oozed out of the wound, staining her dress red.
At this moment, Lilette's heart was filled with fear again.
far away.
The principal is still reading.
Hyperion was still sitting on the ground.
This harmonious state of affairs seemed as if the principal had no intention of fulfilling his promise to execute Hugh Bailian.
"Why?!"
Lilette quickly resisted the deadly attack of the head of the magic department, her eyes full of astonishment and confusion.
If she hadn't reacted quickly enough, she might have died.
One of the demon teachers beside the principal had already taken action, and attacked the second-level black mist warlock directly and took off his head.
"Stupid guy, do you think you can fool the principal?"
The head of the magic department sneered and mocked.
He naturally understood the principal's plan.
At this moment, he admired the principal's amazing wisdom like a great sage of the demon clan.
With just simple words, he controlled the student who violated the rules to kill the troublesome silver summoned creature with his own hands!
"Isn't the principal neutral?!"
Lilette's heartbeat was like an out-of-control drum, rapid, chaotic and crazy. The heavy sense of despair brought by reality made her brain tremble.
She didn't understand why this shadow world was so unfair.
It seemed as if no matter how she followed the mechanism, she would be the one to be executed!
"Of course I am neutral, but you are the one who violated the school rules, and you want to bite back at the good students. If I don't execute you, who should I execute?"
Lanqi said this calmly, as if he was standing in his back garden, flipping through a book and not wanting to even look at the buzzing pests.
Hyperion, who was sitting on the ground, finally didn't want to act anymore and smiled with relief, as if she was mocking Lilette.
The scene she saw gave Lilette a momentary illusion.
She suspected that the principal was actually unfairly favoring Hyperion! "Lanqi, can I tell her the truth?"
Hyperion turned around and looked at Lanqi and asked.
"Hasn't this already been told?"
Lanqi's fingertips pinched the pages of the book and he spoke without raising his head.
"Lanqi...?"
In the distance, Lilette's surprise and resentment reached their peak.
She heard Hyperion calling the principal's name.
Ranch.
An absurd and terrifying guess suddenly exploded in Lilette's heart like a thunder.
At the same time, more and more doubts seemed to converge and connect in her mind.
Why are Hyperion's teammates nowhere to be seen?
Why is the magic power of this glowing demon so strong that it is almost imperceptible? And why did the principal allow the challengers to pass the mechanism smoothly before?
At the moment when all these questions are intertwined, coupled with the explanation that "Lan Qi is the principal", it seems that all the answers are solved! "Could it be that you are Lan Qi?"
This was the only explanation Lilette could find.
"It is indeed the principal, that's for sure."
Lanqi elegantly and calmly took out the nameplate "Lanqi, Music Teacher" that he had originally received in the music classroom from his pocket and hung it on his chest, as if to tell Lilette that he was not only the principal, but also an official subject teacher of this school.
This attitude of never looking her in the eye from beginning to end seemed to highlight the huge difference in their status in the Demon Academy at the moment.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"Ahh!! Ranchi! You bastard!!!"
Lilette's cry tore through the air, echoing with rage and despair among the trees of the botanical gardens.
Her eyes were red and swollen, and the bloodshot under the tears seemed to be about to overflow.
She finally realized that she was like a fool being fooled by this guy.
Not only was I deceived by the clear superior-subordinate relationship between this guy and the devil professor when I was in the principal's office before.
Now, he was bewitched by his aura and words, and personally wiped out his greatest reliance for escape.
And at this time.
A large number of demon teachers had already gathered in the corridor, waiting for Ranchi's order to take action.
"Teachers, please punish this student who violated school discipline, hurt classmates and teachers, and seriously destroyed school property."
Lanqi, who was reading the book attentively with one hand, raised his right hand and moved his index finger slightly.
The next second, the demon teachers in the corridor at the back stepped into the classroom together.
Under Lilette's horrified gaze.
She saw a dense crowd of demon teachers as dense as a thick wall, as if they were going to flatten the botanical garden.
The earth roared.
At this moment, she finally recalled the nightmare-like fear beyond the limit that a human being could feel.
Until her mental breakdown, she could not understand what kind of madman could go from being a student to the principal of an academy full of demons in just one night.
…
"Huprienne, thank you for your hard work in playing with the poet of great love."
Lanqi, who was still reading the book against the clock, spoke up.
There is less than a minute left in the Shadow World.
From the moment the poet of great love was defeated, he sensed the changes that had taken place in the botanical garden while sitting in the principal's office.
So he rushed over at the first possible moment.
I also wasted a lot of time reading while rushing through the corridors.
But fortunately, I'm finally almost done watching it.
"If I continue to hang out with you and the Great Love Poet, I feel like I'll officially join the demon clan."
Hyperion stood up tiredly.
She learned a lot during this trip to the Demon Academy.
The good news is, I learned all of it from Lanqi.
The bad news is that she now feels her bloodline has awakened.
Theoretically, she should learn how to be a human being from humans, but she didn't learn anything human from Lanqi.
Just as they were waiting for the moment when this fourth-level shadow world was about to come to an end.
“Lanqi!!”
At this moment, in the distance, a sudden voice came from a place that was about to be submerged by the demon teachers, like the last curse before death.
"You will regret helping this half-blood demon duke lady!!"
With this sentence, it stopped abruptly.
The voice of the cultist Lilette was also accompanied by desperate screams, and was drowned by the sound of flesh being torn apart in the demonic tide.
Lanqi didn't seem to have any feelings or reactions.
Just keep reading.
And Hyperion's face turned pale in an instant.
The secret she had hidden from Lanqi for a long time was unexpectedly revealed at the last moment in this shadow world.
Although she knew that she couldn't hide her demon origin for long.
But she had already planned to find a better opportunity to confess to Lanqi after returning to the real world.
Instead of hearing it from other people, it was as if she had been deceiving him.
"Lanqi, listen to me, I...had planned to tell you as soon as possible."
The heavy silence seemed to suffocate her and put an abrupt end to every word she said.
Kolanchi's eyes were still fixed on the book in his hands, as if he didn't want to listen to her explanation at all.
"…I really didn't mean to lie to you."
Hyperion's voice became softer and softer, like a winter breath, gently evaporating in the cold air.
