The Dean Has Arrived

A student was attacked by a headless monster.

This is what Sophia told him when she took Sivi to the scene of the incident.

But when Xiwei arrived on the second floor near the infirmary, there were already many students around the scene of the incident, only to find that the scene was far from'horrible' to explain.

The wall with the enhanced magic of the earth element is now recessed like a dough punched by a strong man, and in the middle of the recess, a corpse with no human form is embedded in the wall.The corpse is like a squeezed tomato, the muscle fibers, internal organs, bones and fat are all mixed together in a sticky mass, bright red juice is sprayed radially in the pit, and the air is also filled with the rusty smell of blood.

Even Sivi, who had been used to the corpse for a long time, couldn't help frowning, and used his body to block Alyssa and Tio who were following along halfway.Although they will be exposed to this cruel scene sooner or later as they grow up, it is too early for them.

After Sofia saw the corpse, the blood on her face faded suddenly, and she seemed to have a shaky feeling, but she still tried to pretend to be nonchalant, just subconsciously a little closer to Sivi.

Beside the corpse, a boy with a round face was so frightened that he knelt down there weakly.His face was pale, his lips kept closing, but he could not make a sound.

It may be because this scene is too permeating, even if there are many people watching, but the scene is silent.

This is not good for the growth of those students.

Xiwei looked around the faces of the students around him, then used the elementary application of Wind Element to amplify the transmission of his voice several times before shouting: "Calm down all!"

It wasn't until he sounded like a thunder on the ground that they woke up and looked away from the corpse, and several students who were less courageous or mentally able to bear it directly threw up.

"Don't get close to the corpse, keep your distance!" I don't know if the world protects the scene, but Xiwei decisively began to act as a temporary commander based on the knowledge he learned from TV and the like: "Sophia, you Go and help that boy here."

The girl nodded, trying not to look at the unpleasant pile of meat sauce, and carefully helped the round-faced boy away from the corpse.

"Alysateo. Go and find the other professors." Sivi ordered in an orderly manner: "Alice, don't look at it. I remember you can enter and exit the hallway of talkative Timo. Go and find the academy. long!"

It may be that Xiwei's calmness gave the students courage.They also gradually began to return to the way they used to be, looking at Xiwei who had temporarily become their backbone.

However, Alysateo and Alice could not complete their tasks because the professors had already arrived.

"The dean went to St. Doragon College to participate in the Magician Education Seminar." As the vice dean, Mrs. Lauren, who is also the only two high-level magicians in the Huolian College, was first exposed because of the tragedy in front of her. A solemn look.Then he said to Xiwei: "I will try to contact him, but I won't be able to come back in a short time."

Obviously, the vice-president may have profound magic skills, but his ability to grasp the mood of the students is too bad.

Her words made the students who had begun to settle down again showed signs of commotion, and Xiwei's previous efforts were burned.

"Notify your classmates and friends. During this time, you will all take refuge in the auditorium. Try not to act alone. If there are enough people, it will be fine even if there are really headless monsters."

Xiwei, who knew the fear of others, said to the students immediately.If the rumors and riots were really allowed to occur, it would undoubtedly worsen the situation for the current Huolian Academy.

His words were well executed by the students, and they left one after another to go to the auditorium with their close classmates and friends.

Then he said to the more familiar Professor Barnik: "Can Mr. Barnik take Peter... uh, the boy with the round face to the infirmary? He may be an eyewitness to this incident. By the way, ask him about the whole process."

Barnik is obviously a little uncomfortable with Sevi's familiarity... It is not an honor to be an intermediate magician but defeated to a beginner.But Xiwei's proposal is not wrong.In addition, his tone was not an assignment but a discussion, so Barnick agreed with Sivi very seriously and took the round-faced boy who seemed to have not recovered to the infirmary.

"Take advantage of this time, let's find out the troll first!" Sivi said to the other professors, and then Sophia asked: "Sophia, can you let the librarians close the library early?"

The library of Huolian College has a rich collection of books.Therefore, there may be the possibility of coveting others.However, its defense system is also very complete, as long as it is officially closed.Even if a high-level magician wants to break through, it takes a lot of time.

"If the library is closed, I can go alone." Sophia said: "The other part-time librarian students should have taken refuge in the auditorium."

"It's too dangerous to be alone." Xiwei shook his head.Rejected her proposal.

"Then teacher, I'll go, too." Alyssa, who failed to make a difference, also said to Xiwei.Not only her, but even Tio and Alice volunteered.

Although Xiwei is still not at ease, it is only their professors who can win the battle against the monsters.Eleven people wanted to search this huge castle in a short time, but they were already stretched out.

"Ms. Lauren, can I change the patrol area with you?" Siwei thought about it for a while and asked the deputy chief who was hanging by him.The area patrolled by the vice-president includes the library. As long as the patrol route is changed, it should be no problem to send Eliza and the others to the library. After that, they only need to return on the road that has been determined to be safe. .

"No problem." Mrs. Lauren thought for a while, and finally agreed to Xiwei's proposal.

She is not a fool, and naturally knows what Xiwei means.As one of the few people who know that Xiwei has the Merlin Medal, it does not matter if such a genius who has soared so fast is given this kind of favor: "But before that, who can recognize that poor student? Is it? I need to write a letter of funeral to his family."

The other professors looked at each other. Even the wise magician could not restore the appearance of the victim with a tuft of meat sauce. It seemed that he could only check the student list in the auditorium later.

But there is an exception here.

"The victim is Basha Dursley." Xiwei used the ability of his mage hat to determine the identity of the victim.

However, when he blurted out the name, he was stunned.

He didn't know what he had forgotten until now!

There is indeed a boy named Dursley in this year's year, but he only appeared once in the first class of Xiwei.After being criticized by Xiwei, he never took Xiwei's class again.

It was precisely because of this that he didn't think of such a student when he heard Dursley's surname at first.

Is this surname a coincidence... or is it another reason?

For example, because he got clues about Lange's treasure from his parents, he wanted to find that treasure.As a result, the guardian of the treasure was offended by the headless monster?

These thoughts just flicked through Xiwei's mind, and they didn't show up in particular.Now there is no need to add other troublesome items.

After reconfirming the response policy, they dispersed and patrolled.

By the way, the area that Barnick usually patrols is shared by several nearby professors.

"But it's really weird." Walking beside Xiwei, Alice tilted her head and said in doubt: "According to the seven incredible things, the headless troll lord should only appear at night?"

"It might be because the sky is too dark, so it's considered night by that guy." Xiwei said casually.

"Speaking of which, tomorrow will be the night of the bimonthly." Alice suddenly started talking about irrelevant topics.

But Xiwei understood what she meant: "You mean that painting that will become Shura scrolls?"

"If there is still no way to find the Lord of the Headless Trolls this time. Maybe I can find some clues from somewhere!" Alice seemed to be very interested in this kind of thing, and kept swaying Xiwei to look.

If there is no troll incident, Xiwei's response must be a mouthful of rejection, but now that the seven incredible headless trolls have been confirmed to appear, there may be some special meanings in the other incredibles. .

Besides, it was weird to hang a picture made with the special paint of wormwood in the academy.And if it's really that simple, then why doesn't the college come out to refute the rumors?

But from another aspect, if the hanging paintings that belong to the academy really contain that kind of clue.So other professors should have discovered it long ago, right?After all, as a magic school.There are always more wise people than fools.

Thinking of this, Xiwei suddenly came back to his senses: Why do you think so much, if you can find the monster now and kill it in one breath, will everything be fine?

"I still hope that things will end here." He sighed. Compared to the feeling that the dark clouds are overwhelming the city, Xiwei still prefers the usual leisurely atmosphere: "But if you really find If you don’t have any clues, you might go to see that painting and choose one."

At this moment Alisha asked suddenly: "Teacher. Since there are a few other incredible ones, just ask the armor with a hundred questions and answers, "Where is the treasure?" or "The hiding place of the giant monster". Did you solve the problem easily?"

"Hmm. The reason why incredible is incredible is because there is no way to think in common sense." Alice thought about Alice's question in distress for a while.In the end, she could only give an ambiguous answer-it seemed that she didn't know what was going on.

"Let’s admit that all the unthinkables exist." Sophia, who had always been out of the topic at this time, spoke. Because of the appearance of the headless monster, she finally had to admit the existence of those things reluctantly : "But even if it exists, it is only a product made by using certain magic or alchemy principles. The headless monster must be the effect of curing the undead magic, and the armor with all questions and answers must be only a magic puppet with language ability! "

Sivi looked at Sophia, stroked her chin, and said thoughtfully, "Why do you always want to deny the existence of that kind of thing, Sophia...Are you afraid of the incredible?"

"It's not!" Sophia decisively denied: "I just hate to attribute all unexplained things to abnormal phenomena!"

While they were talking about moving toward the library, Tio suddenly stopped and looked out the window.

Sivi, who had been paying attention to her surroundings, immediately noticed her abnormality, and stopped and asked, "Tio, what's wrong?"

"Bats." The little girl pointed out the window: "Many bats."

Hearing that Xiwei also went to the window and looked out.

I saw a lot of black shadows hovering in groups in the distance in the gray rain curtain.Because the distance was enough, the warning barrier was not triggered.Therefore, the Eye of Sauron did not activate.

The number of that level can no longer be explained by natural phenomena.Moreover, the trajectory of their flight seems irregular at first glance, but Xiwei always feels that something is wrong.

"It's too rainy, I can't see it at all."

Although the torrential rain also affected the opponent's flight.But it has also become the best protective color.If it hadn't been for Tio to find out, I am afraid that even if Xiwei accidentally looked out the window, he wouldn't notice the abnormality.

"Alyssa, Tio, Alice. You follow the way you came back. Mrs. Lauren should not be far away, you go and tell her this situation." After speaking, Sevi took out another silver short The rod was handed to Tio: "Compared to me, it is better for a high-level magician to distinguish this situation."

The short rod is bright silver with a metallic luster, but it doesn't weigh any more.The stick body is also covered with mysterious patterns.A dark purple diamond-shaped gemstone is inlaid on the top, and four cyan magic patterns are suspended around the gem. A green halo links those magic patterns, which is very magical.

Even if you don't touch, you can feel the excitement of the wind element around the scepter.

This is one of the rewards Xiwei received after completing the task of the "Most Popular Teacher", the short rod named [Platinum Xunfeng].

The attributes are very good. In addition to increasing the magic transfer rate of the wind element, it also adds extra lightning damage. In addition, there is a [magic +5] attribute that allows Tio, who is currently in a weak state, to use magic.

"This [Platinum Xunfeng] was originally intended to be given to you when you can perform the Shui Jian Pose. But now the situation is urgent. So I will make an exception and give it to you first." Xiwei touched his face with a happy smile. Tio's little head said with a slight doting, "You have to listen to Alyssa on the way, you know."

Then he told them several times to be careful on the road before watching them leave.

After sending away Alyssa and the others, Sevi and Sophia became alone.Without the maid and two little girls who could liven up the atmosphere, their own atmosphere seemed a little dull.

"However, that guy is quite unlucky. He actually encountered the headless troll twice in a row." Xiwei tried to open the topic from other places.

"Who are you talking about?" Sophia's voice sounded the same as usual, but because she deliberately walked half a step ahead of Sivi.So Xiwei couldn't see her blushing cheeks.

Rejoicing that the dialogue had been established, Sevi continued: "It's the little guy named Peter K Lawrence. Didn't he also say that he heard the voice of the troll? At that time, you even came forward to help him."

"Oh. That guy." Sevi said so, and Sophia seemed to remember.

However, I just remembered it and didn't seem to intend to discuss this in depth.

The silence between the two remained until the library.

The current library is filled with the peculiar smell of paper and ink as usual, but the difference is that the current library is empty and there is no one.

However, the book return area at the front desk was full of books that the students had just returned, and some students didn’t have time to put the books in the book return area. They just spread them on the table, even the pile of bound books that Xiwei borrowed Throw it in the reading room, not put it back.

But now is not the time to continue to put the book back together.

After checking the library a little bit and making sure that there was no sign of intrusion from the outside, Sophia planned to officially close the library.

However, she suddenly found that Xiwei's gaze was fixed on a large hardcover book at the book return office.

The girl looked at the name of the book curiously-"A Testament to the Surnames of Omarster Ancient and Modern", with the subtitle "Let you know that those surnames originated from development".

Compared with learning materials, more students use it as a story book, because the textual research on the origin of the surnames in the book are all twists and turns or bizarre stories.

But apparently Xiwei is not a person who will forget what is going on just because he reads the story.

"Are there any new discoveries in it?" Sophia glanced at the part Sivi was looking at, but didn't see anything particularly noteworthy in it, so she simply asked.

"The missing piece of the puzzle..." Sivi picked up the book and looked at it carefully, then a stunned expression appeared on his face: "I finally found it."

"Although the truth of this incident is not very clear yet, it is already visible." Putting the book back at the book return office, Xi Wei said to Sophia solemnly: "Next, it's time to solve the case." To be continued...)
