Within a week, the entire human world entered a state of combat.
However, even so, the human territory is shrinking day by day, and the sky is getting darker day by day under the influence of monsters. Sometimes, there is no sunshine for several days in a row. It makes people wonder, does humanity really have a future?
[Good guy, not only they doubt it, but I, the reader, also doubt it]
How can we fight this? The monsters still have at least 70% of their forces standing, and the humans are already like this...
[What a desperate atmosphere, so depressing]
【The turning point lies with the trio! 】
[Team of three... Chen Jueyu hasn't accepted any missions in a month, right? Having lost her summoned beast, she's not completely incapable of fighting, but... she's completely lost the will to fight...]
[Bitter, Xiaoyu is depressed all day long, Mianzi and Yu Shao are busy all the time and rarely come back to the academy... It's been a long time since the three of them have communicated, right?]
…
After another mission was completed.
When Shi Wuqing returned to the academy, he happened to meet the team led by Jiang Chuan.
Seeing Shi Wuqing, Jiang Chuan was slightly startled, then he smiled and waved his hand with his eyes curved: "Shi Xuemei, long time no see, thank you for your hard work."
Shi Wuqing smiled and returned the greeting. When Jiang Chuan was about to leave, he suddenly asked, "Senior Jiang, can we chat after dinner?"
Jiangchuan was a little surprised, but quickly replied, "No problem."
Shi Wuqing and he decided on a place, then stood there, watching the young man walk away.
Before we knew it, winter had arrived. There were no more golden leaves falling in the academy, the sky was dark all day long, and the whole world seemed to have become gray.
Shi Wuqing stood quietly for a long time before walking into the academy.
"Please ask Shi Wuqing, the first-year class leader, to come to Teaching Building No. 3."
The dean's voice suddenly rang out over the academy.
Shi Wuqing paused. She knew the dean could see it, so she said, "Got it."
It was expected that the dean would look for her, after all, she was indeed suspicious.
There is no impenetrable wall in the world, not to mention that she is in a magic academy.
But now, it doesn’t matter...
Shi Wuqing came to Teaching Building No. 3 as required.
Classes have been suspended for many days now, so the teaching building is empty and deserted, with no students at all.
Shi Wuqing walked into the teaching building. The dean didn't tell her which floor it was, so she walked up the stairs to the top floor.
"Dean, I'm coming in." Shi Wuqing said politely, then pushed open the door to the rooftop.
The dean was standing at the edge of the rooftop with his back to her.
"Do you know why you came here?"
"I don't know." Shi Wuqing walked to his side.
On the rooftop, because you are closer to the sky, the sense of oppression and crisis brought by the gray sky is even stronger.
The dean turned around and said, "Because this place is closest to the Tree of Life, and no one can lie before the Tree of Life."
"The Tree of Life?"
"It is the source of magic power that everyone in the temple is willing to protect at the cost of their lives. The power of all magicians comes from it."
Shi Wuqing looked puzzled: "Dean, why are you telling me this?"
The smile on the dean's face seemed carved in stone: "You already knew this, why would you tell me?"
Shi Wuqing's dress rustled in the wind. At the moment when she should have been nervous, she suddenly raised the corners of her lips and sighed:
"Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from you."
At this moment, all the students' proper attitudes disappeared, replaced by wanton indifference and carelessness.
The dean looked at her strange attitude, his pupils shrank slightly, and his smile froze slightly.
