Chapter 63
"Anyway, you four little guys, your performance is really...I don't know what to say. I really don't know how to thank you." Vincent said softly.
"Principal, it's actually the two of them. We are just responsible for notifying the teacher." Long Xinyu was embarrassed by Vincent's praise for a while, and said with her head lowered. Aniya also blushed a little, but just nodded, agreeing with Long Xinyu's words.
"No, no, you two are also very important. If you hadn't called your teachers Griffin and Nelvi in time, and hadn't informed Mr. Geer in time, it might have been another very terrible ending. ." Vincent looked at the two women gently and said, then stretched out his hand, first touched Aniya's head, and then touched Long Xinyu's.
"Then..." Vincent focused his eyes on Lin Sirius, his eyes full of pride: "I am proud of you, classmate Lin Sirius, and classmate Xu Weiwei too. Your courage surprises me. .If it weren’t for the obstruction of you two, the demons would probably have stolen the gems.”
"Hehe, after all, I have been asked by you, principal." Lin Tianlang scratched his head and said with a smile.
"Oh, by the way, Lin Tianlang, where are the gems?" Geer asked from the side.
"Here it is." Lin Tianlang touched his pocket, took out the gem with colored light, and put it into Vincent's hand. Vincent took the gem carefully, his palms trembling.
"It's finally over...my mission has been completed..." The moment he put the gem into Vincent's hand, all the nerves in Lin Sirius' body completely relaxed. His tense body also relaxed, and his will no longer had any reason to hold on to his exhaustion. When his vision went dark, Lin Tianlang suddenly went limp, then fell backwards to the ground, unconscious.
"Lin Tianlang!!" Aniya shouted anxiously.
Griffin had a sullen face and immediately came forward to examine Lin Sirius.
"There is some residual magic power on the body that was hit by the spell, but there are no serious injuries. The only thing is that the magic power is excessively overdrawn, and the body can no longer support it." Griffin said calmly.
"I understand, Fran. Thank you for the hard work on these two children. Send them to the infirmary." Vincent nodded.
Griffin didn't say anything, just cast a small spell on Lin Sirius, and then Lin Sirius floated up, suspended about one meter above the ground.
"Franc, let me go with you." Nelvi exhaled lightly and said, and then cast the same little spell on Xu Weiwei.
"Um, um..." Griffin nodded stiffly. The two of them took Lin Tianlang and Xu Weiwei to the infirmary.
"As for you two, you have worked hard today. You should go back and rest quickly. Miss Ovelina will take care of your two friends." Vincent said to Aniya and Long Xinyu with a smile. .
"Okay, goodbye, principal." The two girls said goodbye to Vincent shyly, and then returned to the living area.
"Come on, Ger, let's go to the secret room and have a look." Vincent said calmly, and then cast a magic, and then the area in the atrium that was destroyed just now magically began to repair itself, as if it had never been destroyed.
"Okay!" Geer nodded. The two walked into the secret passage, and Geer quickly cast a light spell, and the surrounding area immediately lit up.
"By the way, I haven't entered here before." Vincent said suddenly as the two of them walked.
"Not even the principal?" Geer was a little surprised.
"Yes, there are too many secrets in this school. Even I can't ensure that I understand all the secrets." Vincent smiled: "The founder of the school left a legacy to us descendants. There are a lot of treasures, and we still need to discover them little by little. I cannot complete this task, and it will most likely be handed over to the next principal."
"Principal, you are joking. How could the next principal be appointed so soon?" Geer laughed. The principal of Shenglun Magic Academy has a lifelong tenure. Once you choose to become the principal, the contract will not be terminated until death. Therefore, if you want to become the principal of Shenglun College, you not only need to bear huge responsibilities, but also have huge determination. Of course, being the president of a college is not something you can do just because you want to be the president. You must go through some tests before you can be recognized. Therefore, the principal of Holy Lun College is not actually arranged by the Ministry of Magic, nor is it elected by internal staff, but chosen by the school itself.
The two walked through a long secret passage and finally came to the gem secret room. The secret room was in a mess, and the traces of the battle inside were still fresh. But something smelly suddenly attracted their attention. The two took two steps forward and discovered that the smelly thing was actually a corpse.
The body had rotted into a state of disgrace, and had been eroded by the dark matter into a puddle of mud. It could only be barely made out to be the shape of a human being.
This corpse was Ricky. When Chelister left, he detonated the dark power hidden deep in Ricky's body. This is a safety device that every demon has in its body to avoid being caught. After the dark power detonated, it immediately swallowed Ricky's body and took away his life.
"It's so cruel..." Vincent looked at the pile of rotting corpses on the ground, and saw that the uniforms on the corpses could still be seen. The shape of the four stars could also be seen on the badge, and he couldn't help feeling a little sad. Although Ricky is a demon, he is also a student of Shenglun Magic Academy. As the principal, rather than such a tragic death ending, he hopes to help him change his ways, give up his identity as a demon, and start a new life.
"The methods of the demons never leave any way for themselves to survive." Geer echoed from the side.
"Hey - let's go, Ger, there is nothing else here." Vincent shook his head sadly, moved his fingers, and the rotting corpse on the ground immediately burned. In less than five seconds, the body was completely burned to ashes.
"I hope you can choose the right path in the next life, Ricky." Looking at the smoke floating in the air, Vincent said quietly. After saying that, he turned around and left the gem secret room.
"Principal, what about this secret room?" Geer followed up and asked.
"Let's leave it like this for now. After all, this is a witness to the school's history. Don't destroy it easily." Vincent replied.
……
……
Lin Tianlang didn't know how long he had been unconscious. He only knew that he had had a long, long dream. The content of the dream is blank and nothingness, nothing. Finally, three days after the Gem Secret Chamber incident, Lin Tianlang slowly woke up.
The first thing I saw when I woke up was the ceiling of the infirmary. A ray of early morning sunlight shone in from the window and fell on Lin Tianlang's face, feeling warm.
"Phew - I feel like I slept for a long time..." Lin Sirius sat up from the bed, stretched out and rubbed his eyes. I still feel like I have a bit of a headache, as well as aches and pains all over my body.
Lin Sirius looked around. There were eight beds in the infirmary. Besides him, there was another patient. Lin Tianlang looked towards the bed next door and saw the silver-haired girl with her eyes closed. The girl's sleeping face was a bit cute. Looking at her face and remembering the experience in the gem secret room that day, it felt really thrilling.
"Anyway, it's finally come to an end. This storm should subside..." Lin Tianlang breathed out and then lay back on the bed. Now he wanted to do nothing but lie down.
"Speaking of it, it's true... I'll probably never forget this experience for the rest of my life." Lin Tianlang looked at the ceiling and said to himself. It was the first time I felt such deep fear, the first time I was so close to death. In fact, it felt better when he was about to die. Before he died, the man in black robe asked him and Xu Weiwei to think about his last words together. The torture of waiting for death was the most terrifying.
But anyway, it’s good to be alive.
Turning his face sideways and looking at Xu Weiwei, Lin Sirius suddenly felt a little complicated. After this storm passed, he felt that the relationship between him and Xu Weiwei seemed to be a little different. He always felt that he cared about her more than before. When he saw her injured look, he always felt a little distressed and a little missing. To feel protective.
"Made, I shouldn't have fallen in love with her. It's impossible, it's just out of concern for my friends. Yes, that's it." Lin Sirius covered his face with the quilt.
The warm sunshine is shining on the body. In the late autumn season, this warmth can easily make people feel sleepy. It didn't take long for Lin Tianlang to fall asleep again. Since he had nothing to do, he might as well just sleep in the dark.
After Lin Tianlang fell asleep, Xu Weiwei woke up next to him. The silver-haired girl rubbed her sparse sleepy eyes, turned sideways, and looked at Lin Sirius' profile. Her pretty face began to turn red inexplicably.
This guy was sleeping without any defense at all. Xu Weiwei looked at Lin Tianlang sleeping soundly and smiled secretly. I really want to tease him. Xu Weiwei thought to herself. Like Lin Tianlang, Xu Weiwei also felt that her state of mind was a little different. After the storm passed, she couldn't help but tremble when she recalled that night in the gem chamber.
When the man in black robe planned to use the killing curse on Lin Tianlang, she was really scared. Her fear was even more than the man in black robe casting a curse on herself. She was really afraid that Lin Tianlang would fall in front of her and turn into the kind of corpse that wouldn't respond no matter how she screamed or push him to wake up.
"It's over, it's over, I seem to have become strange." Xu Weiwei patted her face, and then she realized that her face was hot.
"No, no, I can't think about strange things anymore. I have to do something to divert my attention." Xu Weiwei said to herself, and then crept out of bed.
