i used to be a devil

Ren heard this sentence, but he didn't know what Yi Ran said.

However, years of experience in street life made him very clear that this question should not be asked.Previously, if the person in front of him was just a suspicious person who suddenly appeared from the cemetery, Ren felt that the current person was no longer the kind of person described as dangerous and suspicious.

The monster that just appeared in the distance is wrapped under the ice, but it doesn't look like it has been dealt with.Ren always felt that that thing might rush out in the next second. After looking around, driven by a strong desire to survive, he chose to ask Yi Rang, "Is that thing subdued?"

"What do you think?"

Yi Rang asked him back with a smile, the smile on his face was totally incompatible with the tense atmosphere.Everyone else had a worried attitude, but Yi Rang seemed to be just watching a show.

This person is definitely not as simple as it seems.

That's what Ren thought in his heart. At this time, even if he complained about the other party before, "he didn't have the ability to teach him spells, and he taught him some inexplicable things in a mess, maybe he was a liar?" The idea disappeared.

"I think...it should be?" When Ren gave this guess, he was still carefully observing the expression on Yi Rang's face, for fear of missing any emotional changes in the other party.

The surrounding magical elements are still overexcited.

They were active around the magic power left in the air just after Yirang released the spell, until Yirang reached out and lightly brushed his sleeves, floating them all away, "Then it should be fine."

"..."

……

"How's it going?!"

Consuming more than half of the magic power at one time to release a huge water spell, Xiugumi felt strange sounds in his head at the moment when the magic power was completely released after the spell was released, and he was dizzy and dizzy. All of a sudden, strange feelings came up.

The whole person fell into a weak state instantly.

When she was sitting on the ground, she was still thinking unconsciously, did the body of Yiran Field, which was used by Yirang before, feel like this when she fell into the period of magic power failure for a long time?

But at that time, he didn't seem to have any special performance - except that his face was much paler, there was nothing unusual about him.

Speaking of which, she really hadn't seen that body when it was full of magic power... Well, I feel like throwing up——

Pressing his temples on both sides hard, Xiugumi spurned his nonsense, recovered a little, and looked up to see the flaming monster that was still roaring just now, and now it has turned into a statue.

The color of the sky has recovered, and the rays of light that had just covered the sun also emerged little by little, and the clouds that came from nowhere gradually disappeared.

Under the reappearing sunlight, a huge ice sculpture even reflected light.

Underneath the ice is a completely indescribable scenery.A flame that was frozen and never extinguished...

Xiugumi raised the question just now, and after trying several times, she managed to get up reluctantly, and ran to Cole's side with a little unsteady walking.The boss was still in the motion of casting spells. At this time, the breathing rhythm became chaotic. When Xiugumi got closer, he found that his body, which was standing stiffly, was shaking unnaturally, as if he was missing a leg. Unsteady chairs.

Shaking slightly precariously, he was about to fall to the ground.

"...!!!"

"It should be fine..."

After he uttered these words in a hoarse voice, his knees immediately gave way, and he smashed straight to the ground.

Shugumi predicted this, and before Cole came into close contact with the earth, he rushed towards Cole to catch it by taking advantage of his physical advantage, which had been strengthened by alchemy before and now has a relatively good recovery ability.

Of course, the result was that he was smashed hard.

——When the magic power has not been restored, the most that can be done is to be a human flesh pad.

"Mr. Cole!"

On the other side, the mages who cast water spells from various angles also rushed back one by one.

When they saw this scene, they all ran over in a panic. After working in a hurry for a long time, this group of mages who were all in the period of magic power failure helped the two of them up.

This matter is not over yet.

A group of senior spell instructors piled together.As if encountering a group of powerful monsters in the wild, after a hard fight, it was finally confirmed that he survived, and he carefully replenished his magic power at a safe point after the battle, and used various recovery potions.

It has to be said that everyone can see what happened in the sea of ​​flames just now.

It can't be just an ordinary spell. After the fire burned the thing it looked at into ashes, it obviously turned into a monster.

The most important point is that no one recognized it, which means that there is no precedent for the existence of this thing...

For these people, it is completely unseen.

In other words, a new type of magical beast that suddenly appeared...?

The beast tide is approaching, such a change can be said to shake people's hearts, and it is also a danger that they don't know whether they can resist.The existence of this Warcraft simply broke the previous situation.

This situation speaks volumes for many things.

There are many details that make people think carefully.Everyone knows that the reason why monsters appear in this world is because of the relics left in this world after the betrayer Yiran fought the first god Socra.

Or should I say the trouble left behind.

After the Warcraft, which originally only obeyed the control of the traitor, lost its order, the only thing left in its mind was attack.

I don't know how long it has been since the battle between the traitor and the first god.And now, all the monsters on the mainland are also recorded, their characteristics and various information are recorded.

After many years passed, no new Warcraft appeared.

The last time a new type of Warcraft appeared was in Boltton Town: that time the Betrayer came.

This point is already a little knowledgeable among mages and warriors, there is no need to say it outright, everyone knows it well.

The talking donkey is still in the church and is being raised by Bishop Doart.

And now, the sudden appearance of a magical beast transformed from a flame, people don't realize that it is a theory that Protestantism has spread around recently...

The Demon King woke up again.

After drinking a whole bottle of recovery potion, Cole gradually recovered from the restored magic power and physical vitality.

He first apologized to Xiugumi, then he sighed and looked at the huge ice sculpture still standing there.He had gone through a lot of things in his mind, but now there was only the urgent matter related to the ice sculpture in front of him.

Relying on the aurora potion, and after forcibly breaking through, he used a relatively high-level two-stage high-level ice method to control the huge flame beast in the distance, but the flames still jumping under the ice layer made him not sure about it. Whether this matter can be declared a perfect solution.

The flames seemed to still be burning beneath the ice.

Such a thing completely inconsistent with the previous cognition made Cole feel uncertain about the high-level spells he threw.

"Xiu Gumi." Cole was silent for a long time, and then turned his eyes to Xiu Gumi beside him. The expression on his face was indescribably serious, which made Xiu Gumi who was watching him feel inexplicably panicked and scared.

"You, you say, Mr. Cole!"

When she answered, she even jumped up. She didn't know if she was frightened. She still looked like she didn't have much strength just now, but now she seemed to be resurrected with full blood.

In fact, for Cole in front of her, Xiugumi has the same admiration for the other party's own teacher, Xi Lanfa - because the other party is the alchemist who provided her with the help of human body alchemy back then.

In fact, his major is an alchemist, until he almost touched the edge of the highest point on this road, but he was stuck for many years without making any progress, and he chose to study magic instead out of boredom.

After hearing about this experience of the other party, Xiu Gumi felt that this was simply the reality version of her idol in her life—that is, after a genius reaches a certain level, even if she just tries to learn another thing casually, she is still a gifted existence .

——Speaking of which, she still remembered the woman named Bai Lan who stayed beside the Demon King back then. After hearing her description, she said indifferently that you might as well worship the Demon King.

In this regard, Xiu Gumi firmly felt that taking that kind of existence as the goal of life is simply a mental illness, knowing that it is impossible to become like that in this life, and still struggling all the way.

Well, speaking of this, I am a little bit off topic.

Cole didn't know what was going on in Xiugumi's mind. He just adjusted his breathing slowly, and then slowly said to Xiugumi: "Are the students in your class around here?"

This matter can be said to be almost certain.

Just out of the idea of ​​eliminating uncertain factors, Cole still asked.

For him, just looking at the magical beast that had not lost its vitality after being frozen just now gave him a very direct revelation-at this point, a mutated magical beast suddenly appeared in the imperial capital city. The possibility of such a thing is zero.

It must have been released by someone.

But here's where things get paradoxical.

From his perspective as an alchemist, it is certain that this creature is not a product of alchemy, and there is no other person who released him...

After all the factors have been ruled out, the remaining radio options are unbelievable no matter how they look, and that will be the answer.Of course... Cole feels that if this single choice is not the answer, then this matter is not something he can explain.

It can only be handed over to the principal and the bishop of the church to be a headache.

"Yes..." When it came to the students' question, Xiu Gumi felt a little guilty. After all, thinking back on the situation just now, if one of them didn't stop her, her group of students would be the least able to protect themselves.

And she didn't let them leave immediately, this decision is really terrible when I think about it now.

Afterwards, Shugumi scratched his face in embarrassment, whose thoughts were completely opposite to Cole's, and his answer became weaker, "It's nearby."

Cole, who could guess what the little girl was worried about at a glance, didn't say much. He really didn't have the energy to explain in the current situation.The alchemy potion seemed to be free of money, and he poured another bottle for himself. After that, his face was no longer as pale as before, and he stood up instead, "Let's go, take me to see that Doya A student of the special family."

"Ah, okay."

"..."

On the other side, the other students who had just been handled by the teacher went to hide in other places.The teachers around them are not only well-informed, but they are also the kind who have experienced the beast tide for many years.

When they saw the flaming monster roaring towards the sky, they had more or less guesses about it, and immediately chose to take the students who were still watching the scene to a relatively safer place.

As for Yirang and his group of apprentices...

Well, they are still watching the fun in place.

A group of little ghost heads who have never encountered a monster head-on don't know what the huge thing that appears in front of them means. Relatively safe.

Although I can't see it, there must be an enchantment or something, right?

With such thoughts, this group of little devils who are still in place without the slightest idea of ​​moving can be said to have lost the slightest desire to survive.

However, Rennes is an exception.

He is still cautiously staying beside Yirang, and quietly watching Yirang's every move all the time, always feeling that the other party seems to have unspeakable terrible plans—or other things that he can't say.

Anyway, his intuition made him feel that this guy was very dangerous, but...

Ren raised his head and looked at the ice sculpture over there. For some reason, his intuition told him that in the current situation, he was temporarily safe by this guy's side.

Really contradictory intuitions...

But there was no way, there was no other route to choose, Ren chose his intuition in self-defeating.

"Things seem to be resolved."

While Ren was still trembling for his own life, he heard Yi Rang beside him suddenly say this.Immediately, he chose to throw away Yi Rang, looked up at the place where everyone's eyes were focused, and then squeezed past with the crowd.

"..." Yi Rang looked at the other party as if he was running around like a mouse. He ran over at a speed, thought for a second and followed suit, but compared to the excitement of those people, he looked like he was walking. Attitude.

Xiugumi brought Cole and several other mages over the fifth level and came over together. Among the group of people... Xiugumi couldn't explain what was going on, and she subconsciously went to the student who seemed the calmest Looking for it, I immediately found where Yi Rang was.

Such a strange thought flashed through her mind, and she couldn't help but look back at Cole who was following behind.

Cole, who has no mind reading skills, just gave her a puzzled look, clearly expressing the attitude of "who is the one you said".

Correcting his thoughts a little, Xiu Gumi calmed down the students gathered around him casually, and walked towards Yi Rang who fell at the end of the crowd.Before facing Yi Rang, she didn't feel that what she was going to say was so difficult to say, but when she really walked in front of Yi Rang, she suddenly found that it was inexplicably difficult to say.

The other party's overly calm expression made her involuntarily feel that she was a little shorter just because of her imposing manner.

"Is this the one?"

Fortunately, the presence of Cole behind her didn't make her feel embarrassed and overwhelmed for too long.

The change of the talker made Yi, who was waiting to watch the other party's performance with a smile on his face, adjust his focus slightly.

With a serious and convincing ignorant expression in his opinion, he threw a puzzled look at Shugumi, and then looked at Cole uncomfortably, and said: "What are you looking for?" mine?"

"Are you Borodor Doyat?"

"..." Yi Rang, who almost shook his head and answered "No", controlled himself, and only answered after two seconds: "It's me."

Hearing the affirmative answer, Cole breathed a sigh of relief. He had carefully observed the young man in front of him just now, and he didn't feel anything special about him, nor did he have any unusual magic power.

If some alchemy items were used to cover it up, Cole boasted that there could be no alchemy items that he could not see the traces...

Thinking of this, he frowned secretly, but continued the topic as usual, "It's our first meeting, I'm Cole Carter, the spell instructor of Imperial College."

The other party didn't extend his hand to shake Yi Rang's hand, but continued to maintain an appearance that was not indifferent and arrogant, but had nothing to do with being approachable.

When Yi Rang didn't know what he wanted to say later, he continued: "I might need to talk to you about some things, can I waste some time for you?"

Surrounded by little ghosts watching the excitement.

Ren hid among the crowd, looking a bit worried.

Seeing the sun in the clear sky again, it sprinkled the light all over the ground.Yi Rang turned sideways, looked past the heads in sight, and landed on the ice sculptures in the distance.He was very sure that what he had just released should be just a simple spell.

It's just that because of the overactivity of the magic elements and some laws, these elements condense into a living body.

But in the final analysis, it is not a real life body... At most, it is a summoned object.

It's not the kind that is so advanced, it can only be regarded as a one-time use before, and it will be discarded.

The existence of this kind of thing, if you want to describe it, is actually only used to confuse the line of sight.

—Of course, it depends on the opponent.

For these people in front of them, it seems to be a very huge trouble.

In the final analysis, the point is still because of this thing.Yi Rang, who was trying to empathize, could roughly understand the other person's mood, but he couldn't be deeply moved at all.But the other party's purpose, this time he was able to fully understand it.

This kind of summoning has never existed in this world.

Incomprehensible, but also has a strong attack power, the first thought is to find the reason for his appearance, and then find a way to eliminate it.

Logically speaking, there is nothing wrong with it.

"Okay. What's the matter?"

Although every aspect seems to be closer to the setting of "ordinary people", it's just that there doesn't seem to be any improvement in the tone and attitude.

Fortunately, the current body is still of noble origin after all, with such an attitude and tone, it can be reluctantly attributed to the category of "children are ignorant".

Cole has no idea to care about these things now, he has no definite judgment on the person in front of him, and the other person's tone will naturally not pay too much attention.He just nodded, and told Xiugumi: "You take the others away first, that thing is here, these students are not safe."

After saying this, Yi Rang couldn't help but look up, and then at the people in front of him. He didn't feel anything, so he could only keep silent.

When encountering things that you don’t quite understand or agree with, as long as you don’t speak, it’s fine.

This is a skill he has learned recently.

The surrounding students were taken away for unknown reasons. Before leaving, everyone took a special look at Yi Rang and the teacher who seemed to be of high status.

"I don't really want to beat around the bush."

"Well, it doesn't matter."

"That monster——" Cole stared closely at Yi Ran's eyes, and asked word by word, "Does it have anything to do with you?"

Yi Rang seemed to have listened to the other party's question quite seriously, then nodded without thinking and replied: "Yes."

——Admitting like that? !
