Chapter 218 The Annual Test Begins!
"Squeak!"
With a sound, Li He, who was successfully promoted to a third-level wizard apprentice, pushed the door and walked out of the main castle.
Outside the main castle, an Alenx was waiting. When he saw Li He walk out and felt Li He's obviously stronger aura, he opened his mouth to praise: "Great Master Li He, you..."
"Shh!" Li He raised his hand, stretched out a hand, and made a gesture of silence, interrupting Alenx's praise of at least several hundred words.
"I..." Alenx closed his mouth, looking a little uncomfortable.
Li He didn't care, and said very simply: "The annual test will be tomorrow, I need to prepare some things."
"For example?"
"Come with me to the plantation first, let me see the latest batch of cultivated magic plants, whether they are mature enough to harvest seeds. In addition, some potions and transformation props are also simply prepared. Although they may not be used, it is always okay to have them all."
"I understand." Alenx nodded, tried to suppress the words that he wanted to continue to praise in his heart, and walked towards the plantation with Li He.
Next, Li He got busy, busy preparing, while carefully feeling the many changes brought by the third-level wizard apprentice.
...
At about the same time, many apprentices in other places in the Dark Heart Academy were preparing for the annual test.
In a small auditorium.
"Goodbye, Senior Jimmy!"
"Goodbye, Senior!"
"Goodbye!" Jimmy, one of the three giants of the Blood Ship and the current top manager of the growing Blood Ship, waved to the last few members and sat down on a chair on the wooden platform.
Just now, he organized all the members of the Blood Ship to discuss how to deal with the annual test.
The core is unity.
Even in the annual test, the Blood Ship must unite together, so that they will not be eliminated quickly and can achieve relatively good results.
But... Jimmy also knows that the annual test is not as simple as he imagined.
According to the information actively issued by the academy, he already knows that everyone's position in the annual test is random. At present, the number of people in the Blood Ship is much more than before with the continuous addition of new members, but compared with all the people who participated in the annual test, it is still too few.
It is very likely that after entering, the members of the Blood Ship will be scattered from each other, and he will not be spared.
If he is really alone, it will be very dangerous in the test.
Because he is busy with many things in the Blood Ship organization, his training speed is very slow, and he has even been surpassed by some members who are not as talented as him.
So far, he is only a first-level wizard apprentice, not to mention being promoted to a second-level wizard apprentice, and he has not even seen the hope of promotion.
In this state, going to participate in the annual test...
"Alas..." Jimmy sighed and sat in the empty small auditorium, his eyes flickering, and I don’t know what he was thinking.
...
In a double dormitory.
A female apprentice with short hair is flipping through a book on the bed quickly. She looks very confident about tomorrow's annual test, but her trembling hands betray her when turning the pages.
Her brain is in a panic. She wants to work hard to learn more knowledge so that she can play a little more role in the test, but she can't learn it at all.
Pulling her hair, the female apprentice put down the book helplessly and turned her head to look to the side.
Through the open door, you can see a black-haired female apprentice sitting on a chair in another room of the double dormitory suite. That was Lilith, one of the three giants of the Blood Ship.
At this time, Lilith was sharpening a black dagger, testing its sharpness from time to time. There was no expression on her face, but her eyes were sharp enough to cut people.
The female apprentice with short hair wanted to say hello and say something to relieve her tension, but she noticed the look in Lilith's eyes and wisely gave up the idea and continued to sit on the bed and read.
...
In a huge room.
Aya Emily rushed to a tall female apprentice in a long robe in front of her with red eyes, waving her long sword, and the blade was wrapped in a ball of strong wind and slashed down fiercely.
But the next moment, with a "ding" sound, before she could react, the long sword was knocked away, and then she was strangled by the neck and lifted up.
Aya Emily struggled hard, but she couldn't get away at all. Her eyes widened, she felt suffocated, and her body began to twitch.
Soon, everything went black and she passed out.
After a while, she woke up and saw the long-robed female apprentice sitting not far away, with a tight and strong long leg raised, looking at her with a bit of sarcasm. She didn't say anything, but her meaning was very clear.
Aya Emily couldn't help but lower her head and said in a low voice: "I'm sorry, Senior Sister Millie, I... I performed too badly."
"That's for sure, you've always been so bad."
Aya Emily lowered her head even lower.
"But, then again, you performed badly, but you're still lucky."
"Huh?" Aya Emily was surprised and didn't know what this meant.
The female apprentice named Millie didn't explain either. She waved her hand and a crystal ball rolled in front of Aya Emily.
Aya Emily suddenly thought of something, quickly picked up the crystal ball and activated it, and got information feedback the next moment.
Mental power: 25 points.
"I... have broken through to become a second-level wizard apprentice?!" Aya Emily couldn't believe it for a moment.
"Hmph." Milly snorted softly, "So, I really don't know how you got lucky. I thought that with your performance, you would have at least ten days to become a second-level wizard apprentice. You couldn't catch up with this time. The annual test. As a result, being knocked unconscious by me actually stimulated your potential and made you break through while you were in a coma."
"It's really a breakthrough." Aya Emily couldn't hide her excitement. It took her a long time to calm down her mood. She couldn't help but think of Li He who shocked her before... Now she, like Li He, is a second-rate person. A super wizard apprentice. Although there is still a gap, we are working hard to close it.
So, she's not very weak, right?
…
In a warehouse-like room, there are more than ten shelves with densely packed potions and spell-casting materials.
Sean was holding a parchment list and quickly put various items into his backpack.
"Nayin potion, this can deal with music spells, bring it with you. Ash stone powder, which can reduce the power of fire spells, bring it with you. Iron elimination powder, Gutas powder, these two should also be brought..."
The female apprentice Julie and several other Gauss students next to her looked at Sean's performance and couldn't help but shake their heads.
Julie urged angrily: "I said, are you planning to carry a warehouse on your back to participate in the annual test?"
"I just want to be more prepared." Sean laughed dryly, and put more materials into the backpack without stopping.
…
Somewhere, the blue-haired and double-eyed Hegeway slowly integrated a ball of purple energy into his body, his eyes shining brightly.
…
Somewhere, a silver-haired male apprentice stretched out his hand and lightly touched the surface of the pond next to him. The entire pond froze quickly, and then he let out a chuckle: "Is it the annual test..."
Somewhere, a female apprentice with fiery red hair was fiddling with a red flame with her hands, raising the corners of her mouth.
Somewhere, there was a male apprentice who was as pale as a dead man, with a drop of blood sliding like a stone bead on his fingertips, and his eyes were cold.
Somewhere, a male apprentice with black marks tattooed on his arms was chewing a white pebble. He swallowed it whole in a few seconds and burped.
Somewhere, a female apprentice with twin ponytails was piercing each blade into her skin, laughing wildly, with a look of madness on her face.
…
somewhere.
A man with long black hair was lying on the floor of a stone room, resting his arms on his pillow, as if he was sleeping, which seemed too comfortable.
There was a sound of footsteps, and a male wizard with golden lines on his chest came over.
The man with long black hair slowly opened his eyelids and made a somewhat magnetic voice: "Dean Bidongke, why do you have time to come here?"
"As your teacher, at least in name only, I should care about you before the annual test."
"That's right, but with my strength, do I need to care?"
"You are indeed strong, but you still have to be careful. The younger generation of apprentices, such as Volcano, Glacier, Blood River, White Stone, and Crazy Face, are not easy to mess with. There is also that Gaussian student Hegwei. pay attention."
"Okay, I'll be careful not to kill them."
"..."
…
In a blink of an eye, the old day passes and a new one begins.
The annual test is officially here.
Li He checked what he had prepared and made sure that there were no problems or verbosity. He left Blackstone Castle, walked out of the dormitory, and walked towards a square on the edge of the college's campus.
Today is another busy day. I won’t have time to type until the evening. Please forgive me.
We will continue to work hard to adjust tomorrow and strive to resume normal updates as soon as possible.
