Chapter 166 Yeats: Because I have a photographic memory
Ten kilometers west of Jian River, a lush primeval forest blocks out the sky.
Under the sky, a group of eagles flew over, carrying the teachers and students of the Mage Academy.
"This exploration of the Moon Goddess ruins is related to the trial quota, so everyone must go all out."
The mage leading the team was named Henry, a tall, calm middle-aged man who served as the dean of the Mage Academy. He sent a message: "Me, Mercy, Mara and I will do our best to protect your safety."
"Once you enter the ruins, you will be affected by the domain within them. If you want to exit the ruins on your own initiative, you can use the teleportation scroll to leave."
Dean Henry said: "According to the previous investigation results, materials such as Moonlight Flowers and Sleeping Dream Lotus will appear inside the ruins, and there will be magical beasts between the first and second rings."
"You can get corresponding points for handing in materials and killing monsters. The [Monitoring Amulet] I gave you earlier will objectively record your scores."
"The one with the highest score will represent the Mage Academy and compete in this trial against Taim River University. The Hippogriff has begun to land, everyone get ready!"
The teachers of the Mage Academy had already explored the Moon Goddess ruins in advance to ensure that the danger of the ruins was under control before they dared to let the students enter the ruins for training.
Mara, the witch with a thin face and curly black hair, left the Hippogriff and glanced at Lady Mercy, saying:
"Are you sure you checked the teleportation scroll?"
Mrs. Mercy was wearing a black skirt dress today. She smiled and said, "Don't worry, every scroll was drawn by me personally, unless someone tampered with it in the middle..."
After saying this, she paused, stared at Mara with her deep eyes with crow's feet at the corners, and then smiled and said: "Of course, I believe the possibility is close to zero."
"I hope so." Mara nodded, looked back at the Snowy Owl standing on the treetop, ready to enter the ruins, and said:
"Although it is not a human, it has outstanding talents... I even suspect that it is a transformed human."
"Transfiguration is profound and extensive. In the entire academy, you are the only one who is qualified to comment on it, aren't you?" Mercy looked deep.
"Maybe." Mara did not comment and led the two students into the ruins. Her figure disappeared into a hazy and surging translucent barrier.
Six students were divided into three teams, and followed three teachers into the ruins one by one. After entering the ruins, the teachers left and let the students explore the ruins freely.
As the trainer of the snowy owl, Yeats held the snowy owl in his arms and walked with a girl, leading by Mrs. Mercy, into the ruins.
[You have entered the divine realm of the 'Moon Goddess' (damaged)! ]
"I remember you, Yeats from the Bronte family." Mercy turned around and said with a smile, "If I remember correctly, you were a lecturer at the Poets Academy, and your sonnets were praised by Dean Richard."
"Dean Richard does have some aesthetic ability," Yeats said without any modesty.
Mercy smiled and began to praise Snow Owl, saying, "Your talent is the most outstanding I have ever seen in my life. I am looking forward to it getting a place in the trial... Then, I wish you good luck."
After saying that, Mercy took out the teleportation scroll and injected magic power into it. The scroll immediately shattered and scattered into spots of light. Her body was enveloped by the light and then disappeared.
Ye Zhi glanced at the scroll she unfolded, then took out the teleportation scroll distributed by Dean Henry before entering the ruins, and looked down at the patterns on the scroll.
The gift of photographic memory was triggered, and Ye Zhi murmured in his heart:
"With Mercy's level, she is capable of tampering with the teleportation scroll..."
*Outside the ruins.
Surrounded by dense woods, Dean Henry held a crystal ball and stared at the images sent back by the [Surveillance Amulet].
He paid special attention to the area where the snowy owls were.
The snowy owl contracted by Baron Yeats has shown amazing performance in recent classes, which makes him curious about this pair of animal trainer and magical pet.
"A year ago, Yeats of Bronte was still known as a piece of rotten wood." Dean Henry thought to himself, "But a year later, he has shown unique talents in many fields and has even contracted such a magical owl... I don't know who inspired whom."
There are still monsters left in the Luna Ruins, and the points gained from hunting monsters are higher than the materials handed in.
Ye Zhi led the Snow Owl to hunt down two Crescent-toothed Tigers. This two-ringed magical beast looked similar to a saber-toothed tiger, had precious tiger skin with a moon-like luster, and had the magical material 'Crescent-toothed Tiger Fang' that could help improve the magic of the Moon School.
This kind of monster is almost extinct in the outside world because its skin is expensive. Ye Zhi never thought that he could encounter a few of them in the Moon Goddess ruins. He was delighted to see the prey.
The Snow Owl was already a three-ring commander-level monster, and it had a natural suppression on the two-ring monsters. Moreover, it had the powerful talent of 'continuous casting', and it was not at a disadvantage in the face of the pincer attack of two crescent-tooth tigers. It used the Flash spell combined with the Frost Breath to easily kill the crescent-tooth tiger without damaging its fur.
This scene fell into Dean Henry's eyes. He quickly recognized this talent and his eyes lit up slightly.
Continuous casting! A wizard with this talent is a genius among geniuses! In fact, Snow Owl has a three-ring combat power, which is already at the top of the low-ring transcendents. In this double school trial without the participation of high-ring transcendents, there are few rivals!
Suddenly, the image transmitted by the amulet in the crystal ball was interrupted.
Henry was startled, and then he felt heavy in his heart.
At the same moment, in the ruins, three eyed demons formed a horn and surrounded Ye Zhi and the Snowy Owl.
The head of the three-eyed demon is extremely large, and the entire head is almost covered by hideous eyes. The eyes flash blood-red light, and there are several tentacles floating under the head.
This kind of evil demon, as a follower of the "evil eye" Sariel, appeared here, which means that the believers of the evil eye are not far away! Whoosh~ A gust of fishy wind blew in my face.
In the cold and dark cave, a figure clung to the wall and jumped quickly. With a loud bang, a tall and strong werewolf jumped in front of Ye Zhi, his eyes were ferocious and fierce, burning with flames of hatred.
"Did you use the power of the Eye Demon to block the surveillance amulet?" Ye Zhi asked calmly, "Mrs. Mercy?"
The werewolf leaped up, the ground shook, and the beast-like roar caused the lime on the wall to seep off! Three beholders shot petrifying rays at the same time, and the snowy owl flapped its wings to roll up the wind wall, and the fierce wind blocked all three rays! "The snowy owl's wind wall technique is getting more and more outrageous."
Ye Zhi was busy complaining, thinking: "If I can even block the petrification ray, I won't be afraid of the snake girl's ultimate move!"
Immediately, Ye Zhi raised his hand to summon a magical pet, and a magical pet plane opened, from which the neighing of a nightmare horse was heard. A black-armored knight like the god of death held a lance in his hand, kicked the horse's belly, and stabbed the werewolf with the lance with tremendous power!
A look of shock and anger flashed across the werewolf's eyes, and he bared his fangs. Facing the charge of the heavy-armored knight, he dared not resist and leaped up.
However, the lance in Kylia's hand was bathed in blood and turned into a huge spiral spear, which was thrown out suddenly!
boom!!
The werewolf grabbed the blood spear thrown at him with both hands, but was unable to stop the momentum of the lance and was carried by the lance into the stone wall with a loud bang.
The stone wall cracked, and the werewolf was almost pierced by the spear. Blood oozed from his chest, and he rushed towards Ye Zhi with a roar!
Yeats took out Pan's flute and played the tranquilizing song.
Please...collect 6...9...books...!
As the tune of the tranquilizing song floated leisurely, the werewolf looked at the Pan flute in Yeats's hand, his eyeballs bulged, his eyes were full of shock, and he said hoarsely:
"How... did you get the Pan Di?... Even Lord Sariel can't use its power!"
“There are many things you don’t understand.”
Ye Zhi said calmly: "For example, why do I know your identity, and why do I know that you will attack me."
The tranquilizing song restored a bit of clarity to the werewolf's furious eyes. It stared at Yeats intently, and after a while, it let out a low growl from its throat:
"Why?"
Ye Zhi said: "Each teleportation scroll was drawn by you personally, and it will become invalid once you enter the ruins."
"In addition, as a magic scroll teacher, you can use the transfiguration scroll to achieve the purpose of transformation."
"Although you have been pointing your suspicion towards the Transfiguration instructor Mara, I have a friend who has a very unique taste in pursuing a girlfriend, and Mara happens to be his current girlfriend."
Ye Zhi shrugged: "On the day you attacked Elsa as a werewolf, my friend happened to have a tryst with Mara, which provided sufficient alibi..."
"And the most crucial point." Ye Zhi said: "I remember all the characteristics of the werewolf when it escaped that day, including the location of its injuries and the way it walked——"
"Mrs. Mercy, a person's walking style is developed over many years and it is difficult to change in a short period of time. This is why I made this judgment."
The werewolf's pupils shrank, and he gritted his teeth and said, "This is impossible... How can a human have such an amazing memory!"
Ye Zhi smiled and said, "Because I have a photographic memory."
The werewolf was suddenly startled.
Yeats continued, "As the bloodline of Brondi, my ancestors were legendary knights. Like the bloodlines of Wick and Lannister, I am a very suitable [container]."
Hearing this word, the werewolf's pupils contracted violently, his body trembled constantly, and he stared at Yeats fiercely, as if he wanted to curse him with his eyes to continue speaking.
Ye Zhi said calmly: "It's just that while you were targeting me, I was also using myself as bait."
Boom! The ruins shook violently, and the werewolf howled to the sky. Blood-red runes appeared on his body, flashing with scorching light.
Boss looked like he was about to enter the second stage, so Ye Zhi hurriedly said, "Principal Fina, I leave it to you!"
Kendela went to the Taim River to discuss the content of the trial. The strongest wizard guarding Jianhe University was Fina, a silver-haired elf who had lived for hundreds of years.
Long before entering the ruins, Ye Zhi discussed this operation with Fina and asked her to help when necessary! Space fluctuations appeared around them, and the hidden teleportation array suddenly revealed a dazzling light.
The werewolf looked at the silver-haired figure that emerged from the teleportation array with horror in his eyes. He roared, "I just want to lift the curse and return to my previous life. What have I done wrong?"
Fina didn't give it a chance to explain. Her staff shot out several scorching rays with sealing power, which burned the werewolf's body and instantly made it fall into a coma.
Fina stared at the fallen werewolf, and saw the hair on the werewolf's face slowly recede, revealing Mercy's familiar face.
Fina's eyes were neither sad nor happy. She sighed softly, looked back at Ye Zhi, and whispered, "Sir Ye Zhi, you risked your life to lead out the real murderer. You have made a great contribution... Please allow me to express my gratitude to you on behalf of Cam River University."
Ye Zhi nodded, and then asked about the Snow Owl's trial quota.
"Except for Mercy, Mara, Lisa and others still need further investigation. Besides..." Fina nodded.
"Snow Owl is indeed qualified to represent Jianhe University and participate in the dual-school trial!"
