Chapter 693
The opponent's speed was too fast and his methods were extremely strange. In just a moment of confrontation, You Yuanjing fell into the opponent's hands. He took You Yuanjing and moved away from Cheng Lianhui in the blink of an eye.
Cheng Lianhui was furious, but he was afraid that the hostages were in the hands of the other party, so he retracted the magic he was about to release.
"Kurt, is that you? Let him go!" Cheng Lianhui gritted his teeth and called out the other party's name. The teachers behind him were horrified when they heard the name, because this was a notorious undead mage in the Dark Continent. Who would have thought that he would appear here and attack You Yuanjing.
Kurt? Yuan Jing's head was covered by the other party's hand, which could take his life at any time, but Yuan Jing didn't have the slightest fear in his eyes. Instead, he looked at Cheng Lianhui, blinked and said, "Vice President, don't worry about me. I will be back."
As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes lost all their luster, as if he was dead, but his hands were holding Kurt's body. Just when Cheng Lianhui was confused by his words, his body suddenly exploded.
Amid the explosion, Kurt roared, "Damn bastard!"
"No——" someone shouted in disbelief.
Cheng Lianhui's eyes sparkled with astonishing brilliance, and he immediately released his strongest wind magic, saying, "That wasn't You Yuanjing himself. He left early. Be careful!"
The man in black never expected to be tricked by an insignificant little magician. Even if he was a great magician or a wizard, what else could he be if not a little magician in his eyes? But the unexpected explosion still shocked him a little. Then Cheng Lianhui's attack came close to him again. The man in black was forced to summon several undead skeletons to resist the wind magic.
In the blink of an eye, the man in black and his skeletons were caught in the storm. Sharp wind blades mixed in the storm cut the bodies of the man in black and the skeletons. The man in black roared angrily, and finally abandoned the skeletons, activated the teleportation magic scroll, and his figure disappeared from everyone's sight.
After Cheng Lianhui completely dealt with the skeletons, the teachers and students who stayed behind rushed over.
"Vice President, what did you mean just now? Where is You Yuanjing?"
Cheng Lianhui used a gust of wind to blow the debris from the explosion over and said, "Look carefully at what these are. This kid told me in advance that he wanted to go out for training, so you see Yan Yuansen, who always follows him, didn't come with us."
In fact, they were all fake. Before that, he didn't even suspect that You Yuanjing who was following him was not himself, because who would suspect that? It was just that Yuanjing winked at him and said something before the explosion, and he discovered the true condition of the body at the first time during the explosion, which was not flesh and blood, so he simply admitted that he and Yuanjing had planned it in advance.
The body was blown to pieces, so some students couldn't bear the tragedy and burst into tears. Now these fragments and dust were collected, and they were checked one by one, and then they cried and laughed on the spot.
"It's really not You Xuedi, what is this?"
"How did you do that, you? You fooled us too. I was so sad just now."
"Haha, if they don't trick us first, how can they trick our enemies? Luckily, Junior You prepared for this, otherwise it would have been really dangerous. I didn't expect that the Undead Mage is still alive."
"I have turned myself into a skeleton. How can I die so easily? I am neither human nor ghost."
The commotion here also attracted the attention of local magicians, and they all rushed over. At first, they thought that You Yuanjing, a magician with a bright future, was really dead. Now they know the truth, it was a play acted by him and Cheng Lianhui, and it was a false alarm.
"I didn't expect that this guy Kurt would dare to show up on our continent and come for the great magician You. We must not let them off easily."
"That's right, we should fight back. Do you really think that we magicians are easy to bully?"
Everyone was extremely indignant. Kurt's action was clearly a slap in the face of all their magicians and the Magician Guild. If they didn't pursue the matter this time, would these dark forces be able to move freely in their territory in the future and deal with whomever they wanted?
Cheng Lianhui solemnly promised: "We at the Deya School of Magic will never let Kurt go. We will discuss a strategy after we return. Thank you for your help."
Cheng Lianhui was worried that Kurt had a backup plan, so he didn't dare to delay any longer and rushed back as fast as possible. He finally breathed a sigh of relief after entering Deya City. Flynn came out to meet them in person because he also learned that Kurt showed up to take You Yuanjing away.
After bringing the teachers and students back to the college, Flynn couldn't wait to have a detailed talk with Cheng Lianhui.
Cheng Lianhui smiled bitterly and said, "In fact, I didn't know about it beforehand. It was that guy who hinted to me at the last minute. No, it was equivalent to telling me explicitly that there was something wrong with that body. Otherwise, I would have been really panicked."
Flynn was relieved only after he was sure that You Yuanjing was really safe, but his expression was still very solemn: "So what you mean is that You Yuanjing knew about this disaster in advance and deliberately made this arrangement?"
Cheng Lianhui released several barriers to ensure that their conversation would not be overheard by anyone, so he could say with peace of mind: "The day before departure, I took them to see the Pope. I thought Yuan Jing made this decision after meeting the Pope. It happened too suddenly."
Flynn was furious: "Are you saying that Yuan Jing found out that there was something wrong with the Pope and that's why he kept this trick? Is the Pope in collusion with Kurt?"
Cheng Lianhui said with a sullen face: "This conclusion is the most suspicious. Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that Kurt appeared right after leaving the Holy City, and rushed towards Yuan Jing with a clear goal? Fortunately, Yuan Jing was cautious enough to guard against the hidden hand, otherwise..."
Cheng Lianhui was very scared on the way. If Yuan Jing really fell into the hands of the other party, no matter how many secrets Yuan Jing had or how talented he was, could he really be a match for that old guy? Even he was not a match for Kurt: "It's reasonable that Yuan Jing didn't inform me in advance. If he had told me in advance that he suspected there was something wrong with the Pope, do you think I would believe it or not?"
Flynn was very troubled. This was just their suspicion. If he told others about it, no one would believe them. They might even think that they were slandering the Pope and were in collusion with dark forces.
"But is that kid really safe outside? And how did he get that body? Even you were fooled, and Kurt didn't even notice it."
Cheng Lianhui was finally a little happy: "The more methods we have, the safer it is. It would be better to trick Kurt and I together. This guy's mental strength is very strong, so he dared to do this. What's going on with that body? I can only wait for him to come back and ask him later."
Even he was interested in it. Having this ability was equivalent to having an extra life. In the past, only necromancers had this means to transfer their mental power to undead skeletons.
The two looked at each other and realized that they could only leave You Yuanjing, the student, to his own devices. Not to mention whether he was safe or not, even they didn't know where You Yuanjing was now.
Let's put aside the issue of You Yuanjing's whereabouts for the time being. After the two of them come out, Flynn will speak out on behalf of the Deya School of Magic, strongly condemning Kurt and the dark forces, and that the Deya School of Magic will fight the dark forces to the end.
Soon afterwards, the Magicians' Guild also issued the same statement and protest. Because You Yuanjing's attack happened right after the Seven Schools League, other magic academies followed Deya and responded to the statement of Deya and the Magicians' Guild. They not only cleared out the undead magicians and related dark forces in their own territories, but also sent more personnel to the areas bordering the Dark Continent to join the confrontation against the dark forces.
In fact, conflicts often occur in the border area, and there are always magicians and warriors stationed there. This time, the actions of the notorious Kurt angered everyone, and they took the initiative to attack the dark camp.
The Pope also issued a strong protest and condemnation to the dark forces on behalf of the Church of Light, stating that the Church of Light would vow to fight the dark forces to the end.
After seeing the statement issued by the Pope, Flynn and Cheng Lianhui just listened to it. Although they couldn't say they were completely sure now, they thought that Kurt's appearance was most likely related to the Pope. Now they found this statement extremely ironic.
Thinking of Yuan Jing's words that day, Cheng Lianhui was actually worried that the Pope would collude with the dark forces because of the issue of lifespan. When it comes to extending lifespan, no force on this continent can compare to the dark forces. For example, necromancers and vampires, many people are tempted to join the other camp every year.
Cheng Lianhui also personally led people to the border to kill a lot of people in order to show Deya's position and protection of You Yuanjing.
Now everyone on the mainland knows that You Yuanjing is still alive and has not fallen into Kurt's hands. However, no one knows where he is. It seems that he has completely disappeared after leaving the Holy City.
The reason why Yuan Jing did not communicate with Cheng Lianhui in advance was indeed because it was difficult to convince people if he expressed his intuition. After he found out that he was being targeted, the haze in his mind seemed to be lingering. In addition, the two of them were originally going to go through training, and he wanted to make a counterattack, so he made the decision that night to use a fake body to replace Yuan Jing himself.
The fake body is actually a puppet body, which was driven out by Yan Yuansen overnight. Its aura is exactly the same as Yuan Jing's, and a trace of soul power is added. Even Cheng Lianhui could not find the problem when he did not carefully identify it. When it fell into Kurt's hands, Yuan Jing immediately detonated his puppet body to avoid being discovered by the other party if it was delayed, and it would be too late to make any plans.
Even if the opponent could not be killed by the explosion, at least he would spit out some blood and be injured. In the end, Kurt not only lost several undead skeletons, but was also injured. Not only was he affected by the explosion, but he was also injured by Cheng Lianhui's powerful attack.
Yuan Jing and Yan Yuansen, who were staying in a small town, could hear people talking about him and their anger towards the necromancer.
Yuan Jing touched his chin and said, "Kurt, I remember this name. I must kill him."
"This guy is mine." Yan Yuansen said coldly. He heard that this necromancer was just a skeleton. He would tear his bones apart one by one after catching him. He had to let him breathe in the end. "Oh, and that bastard Pope!"
