Divine Flame Crystal

Chapter 224: Xingluo vs. Crist (3)

Christ disappeared so abruptly, and the audience seats, which were bustling just now, suddenly became quiet. Even the management of the academy who were watching the game fell silent. After a short period of silence, the first to burst into exclamations were the Sky Knights. They stood up all of a sudden and faced Xingluo with swords drawn. However, Sunset Academy did not sit still and wait for death. Several vice-presidents also stood up and confronted the Sky Knights. For a while, the academy became quiet again.

Xingluo was breathing heavily at this time. He was not feeling well as he used magic beyond his level. However, his opponent had left the ring for ten seconds. The referee promptly announced that Xingluo had won, and Sunset Academy took on the role of captain.

Several sky knights looked at Xingluo and said, "Hand over Christ!"

The female knight spoke first, her voice faintly filled with anger, but Xingluo didn't care. After all, it was a ring battle, and even on campus, life and death were left to fate. However, he didn't intend to kill the other party, after all, they still had to go to the ruins together.

Xingluo recovered his magic power and mental power fluctuated, and Crist appeared in the original place, but his condition did not seem to be very good. His eyes were full of fear, which made a paladin feel terrified. He thought he must have experienced something just now.

Xingluo ignored Christ and walked towards the vice-president. Only then did Sunset Academy realize that Xingluo had won and burst into huge cheers. Even those who bet on Xingluo to lose were cheering for Xingluo at this moment. After all, Xingluo was fighting for Sunset Academy and protecting the glory of the academy and not being defeated by these foreign knights.

The vice president also laughed and patted Xingluo on the shoulder: "Good job, Xingluo, how about you be the captain?"

"Captain? Forget it, I don't want to fight another round." Xingluo glanced at Renata after he finished speaking. The vice-president shook his head with a wry smile. Xingluo's victory directly allowed Sunset Academy to take the lead. Even though they only had two people, these sky knights dared not underestimate them anymore. After all, one of them defeated the strongest one among them, and the other, as a great magician, actually defeated a mid-level sky knight. Their potential was even more terrifying.

Xingluo was a little tired at this time. He said hello and went back to the dormitory to sleep. However, even though he was asleep, others were still talking about him. Tonight, Xingluo was the real protagonist. Someone invited Xingluo to a dance party in the evening, but he was told that he was resting. The Sylvia sisters became the guardians of Xingluo's sleep quality. They waited until Xingluo was free. Even if he was sleeping, Xingluo would sleep next to them. They would not allow these messy people to disturb him.

Xingluo was really tired this time. The cost of using magic beyond his level was almost the same as using secret magic. Christ was carried down by others and couldn't even walk. With the physical fitness of the Sky Knight already being like that, Xingluo was able to walk down, which was enough to show how strong he was.

The academy has been discussing Xingluo these days. The popularity of Xingluo, which had originally subsided, has been discussed crazily again because of the competition. Monica was doing the experiment quietly, but her ears were perked up, listening to everyone talking about Xingluo. A smile appeared at the corners of her mouth. This was one of her few entertainment activities, because she was particularly interested in everything about Xingluo.

Zeus also shook his head and smiled bitterly. He thought that the opponent's victory over a Berserker was enough to make him famous, but he didn't expect that he could defeat the Sky Knight in such a short time. How could he catch up with him? He had already regarded Xingluo as the target to chase, but it seemed that he had to change another one. If he continued like this, not only would he not make any progress, but the gap between him and Xingluo would become increasingly larger, which would lead to a mental breakdown and stagnation of strength.

Xingluo had a good sleep. In his dream, he saw the fog again. He heard intermittent voices in a daze, "Yes,... it was... displayed... once,... and I remembered it. Very good."

Xingluo was in a daze, and after waking up again, he seemed to remember nothing, except that his space-time magic had reached the peak grand magician level, and he was only one step away from becoming a mage. Xingluo attributed this to his good talent and that he was a favorite of God, who could break through and advance by just a competition.

Xingluo didn't continue thinking about it, but stretched and walked out. He found that the Sylvia sisters were sleeping at the door. He almost stepped on Sylvia's body, but fortunately he reacted quickly and dodged in time. Xingluo smiled bitterly helplessly and carried the two back to the dormitory one by one.

As soon as Xingluo walked out of the door, he ran into the vice president. "Not bad, you can break through by competing. Let's go quickly. The other party has been waiting for you for several days. The magic circle of the ruins will be temporarily weakened after a while. It will save us a lot of trouble if we enter then."

Xingluo nodded and said, "Let's go."

The arrival of the Vice Dean and Xingluo made the Sky Knights frown, but they returned to normal in an instant. However, Christ spoke first, "Xingluo, what did you do to me that day?"

Xingluo was somewhat helpless: "It's just an exile spell, what's wrong with that?"

Christ looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated. Finally, he sighed and said, "Okay."

Several people looked at Christ with strange eyes, and they were all curious as if they wanted to know what happened that day. However, Christ didn't say anything, and Xingluo didn't think it was a big deal, which made them a little confused about the situation. So they didn't continue to dwell on this topic, but turned to look at the vice-president.

The vice president looked around and said, "In that case, let's go!"

The vice president waved his hand, and a huge mechanical airship appeared in front of everyone. This is a feature of the Sunset Empire. Most of the means of transportation use this kind of magic steam mechanical device. Not only is it fast, it only needs regular maintenance. It is much easier to control than Warcraft and it saves the stage of taming. It can be used after it is manufactured.

This was not the first time that Xingluo had seen this kind of thing. After all, he had been in the Sunset Empire for some time. Although it was his first time to ride an airship today, he had already understood this behemoth. After all, he had seen a lot of drawings when he first arrived. He also knew the purpose of coming here, which was to learn about these mechanical alchemy and biological alchemy devices.

There were huge gears on both sides of the airship. The steam drove away the coldness here. The magic lights lit up, illuminating the darkness ahead. The gears were running, making a roaring sound. The huge bolts on them were as big as a round table. The tools that fastened them must be huge as well. Looking at the area on the deck, let alone the five of them, even ten times more could be accommodated. With several people standing on it, it seemed even more spacious.

Most areas of the Sunset Empire have no distinction between day and night because they are shrouded in blizzards all year round. Even during the short daytime, there is no sunlight. They use a huge magic clock to distinguish between darkness and night. It is actually daytime at this time, but the darkness around makes Xingluo a little uncomfortable. Fortunately, the lights on the airship are also very bright, which drives away some of the darkness.

Xingluo and several others stood on it in silence. The airship slowly rose into the air, and then flew rapidly forward. All of them had very high physical fitness, and even the vice-president had a magic shield. Xingluo stood steadily on the deck, watching the scenery rapidly receding on both sides.

Christ glanced at Xingluo and found that he was in a daze. He wanted to come over and chat with him, but suddenly he lost interest.

But Renata still came over, a slim female knight with pure white hair flying in the wind. Today she did not wear a black cloak, but a white shirt, simple and capable. She walked towards Xingluo with both legs. Compared with the older vice-president, she was more interested in the young guy Xingluo.

"Xingluo, are you interested in coming to our family? We can treat you like a family elder."

Xingluo didn't expect Renata's first sentence to be so simple and direct. He knew the other party's family. It was second only to the hidden family and had a high status in the Sunset Empire. He thought the treatment must be good, but Xingluo was not interested. "Forget it, I prefer freedom."

Renata was a little confused when she saw Xingluo refused without a second thought. It took her a while to come back to her senses and change the subject: "What are the conditions for enchanting you?"

Xingluo was slightly stunned, then shook his head, "I usually don't enchant healthy people."

Renata keenly caught the key word: "Generally?"

Xingluo didn't expect that even after she said that, the other party still didn't give up and started to ask: "Well, generally, do you think you are special?"

Xingluo was not polite and spoke directly. Xingluo's words made the atmosphere between the two parties a little tense, but Renata chuckled, just like the warm sun in winter, driving away the coldness of the people around them, "Then Teacher Xingluo, how can I ask you to help me enchant once."

Xingluo didn't know whether the other party was really good-tempered or because he wanted to ask something of him, but he still said: "Reason, tell me why you want to enchant."

Renata hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth, suddenly took a few steps forward and leaned close to Xingluo's ear. Renata's arrival made the air a little fresher. Renata took a few steps back and looked at Xingluo who was lost in thought with a smile.

Everyone wanted to prick up their ears to listen to the conditions offered by Renata, but Renata's voice was too soft and she also used the sound transmission technique.

After a long time, Xingluo took a deep breath and said, "Okay, during this time, I can help you enchant."

Renata laughed. It was the first time for everyone to see Renata so happy. It seemed that what she really cared about was to improve her strength.

Although Renata has a proud figure, elegant demeanor and graceful posture, she does not have the immaturity of a young girl, but has the charm of a mature woman.

Xingluo glanced at Renata who was walking away and sighed. He couldn't refuse the conditions offered by the other party, and the reasons given didn't cause him any disgust.

Xingluo is not against enchanting healthy people, it is just limiting the abuse of enchantment that would lead to terrible consequences. After all, ordinary people can use magic after being enchanted, and the strength of magicians and knights will only grow explosively after being enchanted. If this power is not controlled, the world will fall into endless wars again.
