Neither the old almanac nor the school's astrology monitor warned of any celestial risks. Therefore, the moment the solar eclipse appeared, the entire Phuket Island was in chaos.
No one knows why the sun, which was still in the sky a minute ago, quickly disappeared from the sky, as if there really was a big black mouth sucking it into its stomach.
It's not a natural phenomenon.
Of course it can only be a man-made disaster.
The temporary ban signed by two vice-presidents and four deans of First University spread quickly throughout Phuket Island. Shops were closed and the streets were cleared. First University provided emergency shelters for all residents of Phuket Island; following a year
Before the roar of the Black Prison, the school's protective circle was once again deployed in full force to avoid major casualties or losses on the island as much as possible; all students were ordered to stay in the dormitory and were strictly prohibited from going out. Only some elite students who were notified were allowed to participate in the teaching assistant group.
Patrol work, but they are only allowed to move together within the protective range of the magic circle.
Phuket Island, which is usually bustling and noisy on weekdays, fell into a dead silence in a short period of time.
Only wizards of the Grand Wizard level are allowed to move freely throughout the island.
The office of the joint meeting of the school working committee and professors was in chaos. The fortune-telling team, which is usually highly respected, received more criticism than it could accumulate in a hundred years.
But they were speechless.
Pieces of tortoise shells exploded during the burning, and the yarrow thrown out was messy like a spider web. Every time a tarot card was pulled out, it turned out to be the wheel of fortune. The mist in the crystal ball also became extremely thick, leaving the fortune-teller's eyes wide open.
I was so sore and couldn't see anything clearly.
Everyone knows that this is not something that ordinary wizards can get involved in.
But everyone still worked in vain again and again, hoping to catch some fleeting miracle.
Vice Principal Ruoyu's office.
The usually dark room became brightly lit today, with rows of blazing Gubrai fairy fires inserted diagonally on the surrounding tall and thick walls, quietly spitting out dancing flames.
However, in the eyes of middle- and high-level wizards, the brightest thing in this office at the moment is not those fairy fires.
The aura belonging to the legendary wizard is burning in a higher dimension, radiating around without any scruples, shining through the thick walls and the powerful magic barrier of the school's protective circle.
Like the sun falling into the world, it gently but powerfully declares its sovereignty in all directions, warning those coveting eyes that may have ulterior motives.
In the office, those stone statues that usually sneered and sneered in the shadows were now huddled in the corner of the room, shivering, lest they cause dissatisfaction to the big shots, and be dusted off.
Ruo Fool.
Emma.
Lao Yao.
And hugging Yoko.
Stand opposite.
Although he was only a high wizard, standing in front of three powerful wizards who exuded legendary aura, Bao Yangzi still had a calm expression and showed no fear at all.
"——The relevant departments will not participate in any action before receiving an order from the principal." He expressed the position of the relevant departments to the three legendary wizards: "No matter the order comes from the school working committee, the professors' joint meeting, or anything else
Place... Of course, we promise to always protect the school."
Professor Emma crossed her arms and looked at him deeply.
"That's enough." Lao Yao bit his pipe and puffed away. "If you really take action casually, many people in the alliance will feel uneasy."
Now that you have made your attitude clear.
Naturally, Master Baoyangzi would not casually get involved in other bad things in the school. After saluting the three legends, he hurriedly left this office that even the great wizard felt depressed.
Bang!
The heavy door closed heavily behind Bao Yangzi.
The remaining three legends in the office all raised their heads and looked at Tianji, who was already in a mess.
In the eyes of wizards of the legendary level, all magics are connected, especially divination. Being able to peer into the long river of destiny makes legends naturally have the ability to have real whims. Any disturbance involving themselves will be alarmed.
For them, the direction of the long river of destiny is as clear as the lines on the palms of their hands. Even if there are countless possibilities in the divergent future, they can always find the one with the greatest possibility.
Unless the one who disturbs is another legend.
"——But just a legend cannot disturb Tianji to this extent." Old man Ruoyu, leaning on a wolf-head crutch with both hands, slowly withdrew his gaze with a serious expression: "Although I don't think anyone will lose their mind and go crazy.
The school is causing trouble here, but the Edge College is about to be established, and there must be many old people who want to fish in troubled waters, so we must make corresponding plans..."
"It was fine this morning, why did it suddenly become chaotic?"
Old Yao's eyebrows were knitted together, while he was clicking his pipe, he was muttering as if to himself: "——Have you ever heard of any movement in those big ships or in the withered land?"
Professor Emma looked serious and added: "The Alliance and Wizards Council did not receive any warning. We cannot rule out that it was a few others..."
"It's not the Moon Parliament." As if he knew what she wanted to say, Old Man Ruoyu spoke directly and interrupted: "They don't have this ability. They are not the Dark Parliament either..."
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly turned his head and looked towards the west of Phuket Island, his expression gradually darkened.
Professor Emma twitched her lips.
Showing a hint of sarcasm.
But in the end he said nothing more.
Old Yao seemed to want to make a joke to lighten the atmosphere, but before he could open his mouth, he looked in the other direction in astonishment with a strange expression.
Professor Emma's sarcastic voice finally sounded.
"It's really interesting."
She glanced at the west and then at the north, with a hint of irrepressible anger in her voice: "During the last battle in Hell, the Dark Council was sneaky and had bad intentions. This time they dared to show up.
!Do you really think that without the principal, the school will become a soft persimmon that can be manipulated casually?"
Old Ruoyu twisted the crutch in his hand.
At the end of the Black Prison War, it was He who reached a reconciliation agreement with the Dark Speaker. In a sense, He gave the Dark Council a guarantee. Now that the other party chose such a sensitive time to come, it also made Him feel embarrassed.
But Lao Yao kindly reminded me.
"The one to the west is the Six Fingers of the Dark Parliament. Everyone recognizes it." He pointed to the north with the finger holding the pipe: "But what about the one to the north? That aura doesn't look like that of the Dark Parliament, but rather..."
He raised his head and glanced at the starry sky.
It would be even more troublesome if the stars were involved in today's solar eclipse.
I just don’t know which big shot in Xingkong is coming.
Old Ruoyu breathed a sigh of relief.
"Six fingers over there, I'm going to see Him."
Now at the First University, he is the only one who has the ability to suppress the Speaker of the Dark Parliament, who is also a senior legend. Then he turned his eyes and looked at Professor Emma: "——Old Yao goes to meet the guest from the north. You will stay here."
Next to Yuanshi' and 'Taiyi', as long as the protective circle is not broken, don't worry about anything."
"Probably the only one who can arouse their interest is the Giant God Soldier." Old Yao nodded slightly and agreed.
"Do we need to have the pilots of Yuanshi and Taiyi on standby?" Professor Emma asked a slightly sensitive question.
Ruoyu was silent for a moment.
Finally shook his head.
"No, don't alarm them for the time being. Korma has not finished running in with Yuan Shi, and letting her control it now will directly kill the child. As for the other one... Taiyi's completion degree is less than 80%, what's the point of letting him be on standby?
Use?" Old Ruoyu lightly tapped the crutch in his hand, and his figure gradually disappeared from the spot: "——I have already informed Shi Hui, and she will rush back to school as soon as possible."
The Gubulai fairy fires on the wall all flashed.
When the fire light returns to normal.
The figures of the three legends have disappeared into this large office. Only the breath of legends permeating the air tells others the anger of the big shots. The stone statues of various monsters huddled in the corner finally relaxed quietly.
They talked, touched each other's buttocks, and quietly celebrated that they had escaped from a catastrophe.
…
…
"——This is a school ban. No student can leave the dormitory without permission."
Zhang Yu stood at the door of dormitory 403, with a straight face, and meticulously implemented the temporary injunction signed by the two vice presidents and four deans. At the same time, he seemed to casually remind: "In addition, our three classes are on duty together today.
"
"Can't I let the clone cat out?" Zheng Qing tried to struggle.
"There are no exceptions mentioned in the ban." Zhang Yu shook his head and refused simply.
Zheng Qing retreated into the dormitory dejectedly.
Several other roommates may not have understood the meaning of the last words of the head of the teaching assistant team, but he knew it very well - the school assigned him three hunting teams of guards, three shifts taking turns, providing 24-hour close protection.
his safety.
What Zhang Yu said about "on duty together" meant that there were fifteen wizards watching him outside at the moment.
Not to mention turning into a cat.
Even if a fly circles outside the dormitory twice more, it will probably be put into a glass bottle and carefully screened.
"Don't be anxious," Xiao Xiao comforted from the side: "Everyone knows that something is going on outside, and no one will go out at this time... Jiang Yu is not the kind of person who doesn't distinguish between the serious and the serious."
Zheng Qing stretched his neck and looked out the window.
It's pitch dark outside.
Today, Sunday, Jiang Yu only has one 'Phoenix Language' class in the afternoon. He originally made an appointment with the witch to go shopping in Beta Town after class, buy some magic materials needed for the Dragon Boat Festival, and finally relax for the weekend to prepare for the upcoming final exam.
.
No one expected that such a thing would happen suddenly.
Because the solar eclipse would cause severe magical interference to magical communication methods such as paper cranes and bluebird sound transmissions, he was unable to contact the witch at this moment.
"This should be the third time this semester that we have canceled weekend class meetings."
Fatty Xin bit the straw in his mouth, leaning against the bed, holding a glass of iced watermelon juice in his arms, his voice a bit lazy - his focus always seemed to be so different.
But it's true.
Class meetings have been canceled a little more frequently this semester.
But unlike the two temporary cancellation orders in the seventh or twelfth week due to anomalies in the Silent Forest, today's situation is obviously more serious.
"Do you think today's matter is related to the 'situations' we talked about before?" Zheng Qing looked at Xiao Xiao worriedly.
This week near the end of the semester, the school has become particularly 'restless' - from the conflict between students and fish-men, to the friction between the Beta Town business group and the North District wizards, to the internal discord in Atlas Academy, etc. -
There is hardly a peaceful day.
Everyone can feel the low pressure that precedes the storm.
But when the heavy rain really pours down, people still feel a little unprepared.
Xiao Xiao didn't answer, just holding the crystal ball and looking intently at the rolling mist inside. However, Dylan's head poked out from the top of the coffin, revealing his slightly pale face.
"I heard that some die-hard wizards in the alliance want to bring a big deal to the North District. Do you think it's possible that what happened today is..." He gossiped about the rumors he heard from Yuexia's friends.
"It's impossible." Xiao Xiao suddenly said, interrupting Mr. Vampire Werewolf's speculation: "Mars has been shining for a long time. Even if the wizards in the North District are slaughtered, it will not have such a lasting impact on Mars... let alone
There is a solar eclipse.”
He turned to look out the window.
The dark sky shrouded everything. Without the order of the Astrology Supervisor, there was not even a breath of wind on the campus.
"——A solar eclipse of this magnitude cannot be created by a few ordinary wizards."
Tuk Tuk!
Tuk-tuk-tuk!
There was a crisp knocking sound outside the window.
There seemed to be a spring under Zheng Qing's butt, which suddenly bounced him up and threw him onto the balcony. The fat wizard next to the balcony didn't even have time to get up.
"...You have never been so active before." He shrugged and teased in a vague voice. After all, he didn't bother anymore and continued to drink his watermelon juice.
Zheng Qing didn't pay attention to the low laughter behind him.
He opened the window and put the light blue paper crane into the room.
The wings of the paper crane were a little crooked, as if someone had violently dismantled them. Zheng Qing raised his eyebrows and glanced out the window with some dissatisfaction. In the end, he didn't say anything, lowered his head, and quickly opened the letter.
The witch's slender and beautiful handwriting immediately caught the eye.
He hadn't read anything yet, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
"——We probably won't be able to go out today, so we agreed to postpone it! Let's talk under the cat fruit tree at the specific time next time! This letter was given by an elder in the family. You will receive feedback from me, so you don't need to reply! Review it carefully.
Do your homework! (_)”
He looked at the slightly playful smiling face at the end.
I couldn't help but laugh too.
…
…
Click.
Professor Monteria closed the small iron door of the laboratory.
He took one last longing look at the metal nameplate on the door.
Advanced magic text and bloodline research laboratory.
Then he raised his arm, and his skinny fingertips gently rubbed against the slightly soft surface of the brass. The harsh sound slowly dissipated. He turned around, pulled off the wide hood on his head, step by step,
The figure gradually merged with the rich darkness at the end of the corridor.
