Destroyer of Ice and Fire
Chapter 8: God-like Young Girl
“What are those three guys doing standing there motionless? ”
“What else can be done, three freshmen at first glance, must have offended Houston and been punished for standing there. ”
“Such courage is commendable. This is the first class of freshman life, I dare to offend Teacher Ben...”
Outside the stone forest of thinkers, the frequent St. Dawn's Academy students point to the three standing on the side of the road: Erin, Bello and Moss.
“Shorty, what the hell is in your head! Everyone knows what Mr. Houston is like, and you're still sleeping in his class.” Moss, who felt unusually ashamed, hated his teeth and itched.
Bello glanced at him disdainfully, “Isn't that the punishment stand? What is it? ”
“Isn't that the punishment stand?” Moses couldn't help but scream: “You think it's just that simple? Do you have any idea how insidious Little Ben is? We can't hear what he's going to say here, and if we don't catch up by tomorrow, he'll easily find an excuse to continue punishing us. ”
“Isn't that interesting?” Beloxin said with enthusiasm, "I want to see how many figurines he has. ”
“ …… ”
Moss was already completely speechless and turned around and saw Erin, he almost fainted.
Erin's eyelids have fallen asleep, snoring immediately.
“Are you a pig? You can even sleep standing up! ”
Moses couldn't bear to jump on Erin's neck and wanted to strangle Erin alive.
“Cough cough...” Erin woke up strangled and coughed for a while.
Bello looked calmly at Moses: "Don't be impulsive, it would be even worse if you lured Mr. Houston out and found that there was no good punishment. ”
“My impulse?” Moses looks at Bello incredibly: “You're an impulsive freshman, and you tell me not to impulse. Am I more impulsive than you? ”
Erin nodded vigorously, quite honestly: "Yes, you look impulsive now. ”
“ …… ”
Moss felt that he would be killed alive talking to unusual people like Bello and Erin again, so he withstood the urge to vomit blood, turned around and forced himself not to look at Erin and Bello.
Erin didn't seem so sleepy after Moss strangled him, but as time went by, he felt hungry.
“Grunting...”
As he approached noon, his stomach rang, and he began to feel hungry and powerless, so he glanced into the stone forest of thinkers and said, "Why didn't Mr. Houston come out yet? I'm hungry. ”
When Bello looked at Erin, his face was white and he started sweating on his forehead, he couldn't help but ask a strange question: "Didn't you eat a lot this morning? Why are you starving like this? ”
Erin opened her mouth weakly and had not had time to say anything. Her stomach had kept ringing.
“I...” Moss thought it was okay, but when he heard Erin's tummy mumbling, he also felt hungry more and more, because he was afraid of being late in the morning and didn't have time to eat too much. Turning around, Erin seemed like he might not be able to stand at any moment. He got more nervous and started screaming immediately: “Shorty, don't hurt anyone. It's time for Miss Houston to come out. If you don't stand well, you will surely get us involved when he comes out. ”
Bello pushed his glasses and glanced at Moss, but he didn't speak, just looking at the stone forest of thinkers.
His move made Moses think Houston was coming out at the right time, but just as he turned his nervous head, he saw that it was not Houston who walked out of the big white stones standing like giants, but a girl in a green yard just like them.
The sun shined so brightly in Erin's eyes at this time that the first time he saw the girl walking out of the boulder, there seemed to be a different kind of shine on the girl's green garment. He blinked hard and saw that this was a girl with long black hair, with a beautiful and delicate face covered in shiny sweat, and her uniform was wet with sweat, even dripping down the ends of her hair.
As Erin gauged the girl, she noticed their presence and walked towards them.
“What, was Mr. Houston punished for standing here? ”
Just looking at the three of them, the girl seemed to have understood why, waved at the three of them and said this.
The first time the girl was answered was a belly call from Erin.
Erin was a little embarrassed, but the girl, who looked very atmospheric, laughed and looked at Erin and said, “Are you hungry? Didn't you eat much in the morning? But even if Teacher Houston comes here later, he will let you continue to punish him. He will punish you. In fact, he is deliberately trying to starve people, which is the most common method he has used to deal with your newborns in the first place. ”
Moses was already feeling hungry, and now he hears the girl say that his face is all white, and at this point Erin sees this girl's left hand covered with thick bandages, and he asks nicely, “What's wrong with your hand, are you hurt? ”
“It's okay, it's just to prevent injuries when practicing.” The girl held her wet hair together and looked at Erin with a smile. "You're a very nice person, you're starving yourself like this, and you still care if I'm not hurt. You can continue to wait for me here. ”
“Waiting for you? ”
Erin hasn't figured out what it means, and the girl has been turning around for a long time.
Shortly after the girl's back disappeared from their sight, she soon reappeared in their sight.
“Bang”
After throwing a pile of food in front of Erin and others, the girl sat directly on the grass next to them and grabbed some food and ate it, while directing three people still standing still: "I'll treat you, let's eat together. ”
“Teacher Houston deliberately wants to starve us, you give us food, you're not afraid of being seen by Teacher Houston, he fixes us?” All three are a little stunned.
“He doesn't teach me now, and he can't beat me.” The girl leaves her mouth open and waves her fist, "why should I be afraid of him? ”
“He can't beat you?” Moss took a breath of air and looked at the girl incredibly. Mr. Houston isn't very good among all the teachers in the college, but it's just that, in relative terms, even the worst teacher in Saint Dawn College, one person may be able to deal with at least two or three ordinary magicians.
“Eat slowly, I have to practice in the stone forest of thinkers, and if Houston comes out, I can help you hold him off.” The girl, mindful of Moses' shock, grabbed something to eat and then stood up and walked towards the stone forest of thinkers.
“Thank you.” Erin subconsciously said something.
The girl didn't speak, didn't turn around, just waved her hands up.
The sun shined on her, her back looked good, and Erin immediately remembered that she hadn't asked her name.
“Hey, what's your name?” By this time, Bello had pushed his glasses and shouted at the girl.
Neither Erin nor Moss noticed that since the girl said Houston couldn't beat her, there had been some unusual seriousness in his eyes.
“Chris," the girl's voice came from afar.
“It is she, the divine maiden.” Bello frowned and said to himself.
“A divine young girl?” Erin and Moss are both stunned. “What do you mean? ”
“That's her.” Bello nodded as he looked behind Chris: “She is said to have practiced harder than anyone else, so although she was only in her third year of school, she is already the best of all the students at St. Dawn's College, and even some teachers are not her rivals. It's just that she has severe facial blindness, especially since she keeps putting the slogan of the National College Competition in her mouth, so she has the nickname of a psychotic teenager at our Saint Dawn College, or God's Girl. ”
“A psychotic teenager is a psychotic teenager?” Erin Khan looked at Chris's back curiously, "What does facial blindness mean? ”
“It's easy for her to forget what a person looks like," Bello said. "For example, if we just told her what our names were, she would only remember our names when she saw us, and if she didn't know who we were, she might call you Bello, not necessarily Erin. ”
“Really?” Erin went on to ask in surprise, "What is the National College Competition? ”
“Don't even know that?” Moses almost fainted again as soon as he turned his head, "dwarf. You're such a pig! That's all you've been eating? ”
It was just these conversations, and Erin was not idle, and he had eaten all the pies in front of him.
Moses couldn't help scolding the rumored astonishing amount of Erin's food and immediately sat down and ate it.
“The full title of the National Academy Competition is Star Brave Cup Academy Championship.” Bello eats a piece of ham, not slowly, and explains calmly: “All of our Academies in the Kingdom of Archie will be involved in the race. ”
“Since all the colleges are going to compete in this competition, she wants to win the competition and nothing, right? Why are you calling her a psychotic teenager for that? ”
“That's because there are so many great opponents out there. For the fourth year in a row, we at St. Lauren's haven't been able to get out of St. Lauren's College, and we can't even beat the other colleges in St. Lauren's, but we keep using the slogan of defeating all the colleges, so she's said to be a psychopathic teenager. ”
Erin finally realized something, and he thought, "So we're not really good colleges at St. Dawn's? ”
“Academy excellence is not the same thing as this kind of competition. Our Academy of Saint Dawn is one of the oldest in the history of the Kingdom of Archie, and the overall strength of the Academy is absolutely ahead of the table, just this kind of inter-Academy rivalry, and most importantly, the presence or absence of strong students.” Bello glanced at Erin and went on to say, "Because this is a five-person race, it's fair to say that we've had fewer good students at St. Dawn's College over the years, and that's why we're doing so poorly. ”
“A five-man race? ”
“Yes.” Bello pushed his glasses and glanced at Erin: “If I remember correctly, there will be an additional qualifying match in three days. Our opponent at St. Dawn's College is the Southern Seasonal Wind College, and only after winning the match will we at St. Dawn's College be eligible for the official qualifying round for St. Lawrence City. If you're interested, I'll show you, and then you'll know exactly what the rules are. ”
Erin nodded without hesitation: "Okay. ”
After taking all the remaining freshmen out from the other end of the Thinker's Stone Forest, eating and returning to the Thinker's Stone Forest, and after another lesson on basic training, Houston slowly crossed the Stone Forest and appeared in front of Erin, Bello and Moss.
“How about hungry?” Looking at the three people getting a little hairy, Houston felt a little better.
“Grunting...” Arryn's stomach rang a few more times.
“Next time, remember to follow classroom discipline, but this time, keep standing until the end of class today. Go back and remember to practice Fiery Rift Fist, and do 100 squats, 100 backward frog jumps, 100 full speed sprints... Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't practice or dissatisfied, sooner or later these will be tested in class, if you fail, you will know the result. ”
Houston was more satisfied when he heard Erin's belly grunt, and after saying this, he turned around and left.
“Shorty, I can't tell you're a liar.” After Houston's figure completely disappeared, Moses, relieved, turned to look at Erin and said, “He can still deliberately pretend to be hungry, and now he must think we're really hungry. ”
“I didn't mean to pretend.” Erin said with some anguish, "I'm really a little hungry. ”
“I...” Moston almost fainted: “You're a pig! How long has it been since you ate more on your own than the two of us combined? ”
