Chapter 509: Silver Monarch

Chapter 509: Silver Monarch
Main teaching building, auditorium.

More than two thousand freshmen gathered, most of whom had already developed magical powers and were eligible to participate in the mass awakening ceremony three days later.

According to previous data, it is expected that at least 70% of all freshmen will awaken basic magic and become a glorious civilian-level magician.

However, the specific number of awakenings varies greatly.

Awakening the three basic magics means that you have great potential and can obtain the "priority right to choose a mate" for the next three years. When the class is assigned, you can directly enter Class A or Class B which focuses on training.

If only one aroused, it meant that it would be impossible to combine and create compound magic, and one would almost certainly never become a military-grade magician in his lifetime.

But just become a magician.

Whether it is civilian or military.

Taige will issue a sum of fortress coins on time every month, and will enjoy priority medical care and housing until the magician dies.

Therefore, the magic high school directly under the Taiko Magic Ministry, and the magician training schools affiliated with the Fortress Legion, Exploration Company, and the Taiko Nine Clans respectively, have become the four holy temples that people flock to.

Inside the auditorium.

Nine tactical-level magicians took their seats in the front row, causing quite a bit of discussion.

"Senior Silver Blade, he was a celebrity back then!"

"Nanase-san, didn't you resign as the operations director?"

"Maybe she's a rehire. Her abilities are perfect for command."

Nine outstanding students who graduated last year were invited to attend the opening ceremony. Every year, the Magic High School can train a large number of tactical-level magicians, who are assigned to the Arctic Great Wall, Fortress Legion, Exploration Company and other places to serve as high-level combat forces.

Of course, behind the glamour is a little-known mortality rate.

"Thank you all for attending today's ceremony..."

On the podium in the auditorium, Kamishiro Mirai spoke as a representative of the freshmen. She was not only the acting head of the Jiuye family, but also had the ability to cast great magic at the level of a military magician. It was basically inevitable that she would graduate as an outstanding student in the future.

"Moon Slash, Night Hide, God Descends."

"Great Magic: Kannozuki."

"Don't underestimate this child. Many people who have seen her other side are terrified by her."

In the crowd, Jiang He glanced sideways.

At some point, the silver-haired old man stood between the two students, with a bright red rose in the pocket of his straight suit. His hair was combed neatly, and time had left deep marks on his face, but the lines were still strong.

Although it was so close, the students on both sides were completely unaware of it.

The silver-haired old man took the initiative to extend his hand and said with a smile: "Tachibana, people seem to be more accustomed to calling me the Silver Monarch."

Jiang He did not respond. As for the guy who was very enthusiastic right from the start, he did not take action simply because the occasion was not right.

Tachibana didn't care and said bluntly: "I have always believed that everyone has their own talents to fulfill their own mission, and I am the gardener who cultivates these beautiful roses."

"Prince Coffin, this code name is too cold."

"Only the dead are trapped in the coffins, but you are standing here alive, just like everyone else."

"Or rather, you who just crawled out of the coffin are more like a newborn baby and need more care."

“The understanding of oneself, the affirmation of values, and the adaptation to the environment.”

Tachibana's face was serious, his silver-gray eyes looked directly at someone, and he said: "I need you to help me, just as I will help you."

Jiang He narrowed his eyes. The other party was planning to play the vacant guide role in Prince Coffin's new state, but unfortunately, this role had already been taken away by Lao Li.

"Equivalent exchange." Jiang He said calmly: "That's what Jiuye Future said."

Tachibana's expression did not change, but he nodded and said, "People should be stingy with their own strength. That's right. I need you to help me kill someone. In return, I can tell you the information about the Colorless Lord. This sword of Damocles is still missing."

"As for the specific target, the file is in the conference room of the operations building. Someone will take it there after the opening ceremony."

As soon as he finished speaking, Tachibana suddenly disappeared.

The invisible barriers surrounding the area collapsed, and the fluctuations of space transmission were fleeting.

The silver-haired young man sitting in the first row of the auditorium seemed to sense something and turned around and smiled.

Tactical-level magician Silver Blade.

One of the core clan members of the Silver Monarch.

Because of this relationship, Yin Ren was the center of attention when he first entered school and became a celebrity.

"It is inconvenient for the monarch to kill this person."

"Then it is probably related to another monarch."

Jiang He closed his eyes and rested, controlling the knight to start hunting. To be honest, Ju Jian had a good vision and discovered the only thing he was good at.

……

Main teaching building.

At the same time, the four core members of the adventure team took action.

The fire thief quietly came to the magic laboratory building.

According to the information from my brother, the five True Ancestors are all sub-heroic forces, but these True Ancestors are not the source of the lost vampires of this world. The legendary First True Ancestor had already secretly controlled the world before the doomsday changes occurred.

As great changes took place, the hard work of this vampire, whose true level was a duke, was almost burned to ashes. For unknown reasons, he has been acting alone since the doomsday era, diligently searching for something important.

Among them, the True Ancestor of Darkness is one of the agents chosen by the Duke. The Dark Cult has been revived time and time again. In the final analysis, it was the remnant forces left behind by the Duke before the end of the world that came to the rescue. There is no telling how many pawns are hidden in the Taige.

"But he must be afraid of something."

The fire thief walked quickly through the corridor and headed straight for the school archives. According to his brother's inference, the Duke must be afraid of something, otherwise, such a complete heroic force would not have hidden in the darkness from beginning to end.

"If we can find something that will scare the Duke."

"It's not a fantasy to unify the world."

"Then first of all, we must find out the lost history..."

His thoughts stopped abruptly.

The fire thief suddenly turned his head with a ferocious look.

There was already someone waiting at the corner of the corridor.

The other party was obviously extraordinary. Apart from his eyes, his face had no facial features. His entire body looked like a bright red human-shaped porcelain, and a vague sense of fatality lingered around his blood-colored wings.

"who!"

no answer.

call!
Under someone's real-time control, the Past Knight flapped his wings and charged forward, and with his extreme speed, he arrived in front of his prey in an instant.

The strong wind blowing in his face made the Fire Thief's face change drastically. The terrifying murderous intent that almost made his brain blank directly aroused his strongest resistance, and an epic red flame suddenly erupted.

boom!
A giant flame dragon suddenly appeared.

The entire magic laboratory building was completely shrouded in red light. The mighty flames destroyed everything. The extremely high temperature caused the laboratory building to melt quickly. The destructive power was even greater than that of the dragon breath of the same level, and it was accompanied by a loud sound that seemed like thousands of thunders.

——The red dragon is destroyed.

The fire control and fire skills of the same epic level made the Fire Thief's output reach the baseline of the great powers at some point.

But there is still a long way to go before we become real superpowers.

Molten iron dripped from the molten ceiling, and white smoke rolled out from the cracks in the building like a fountain.

In the past, the knights' charge had not been affected in the slightest.

"Impossible!" The fire thief was furious.

Puff puff!
The knight attacked immediately, releasing the Dragon Spear Technique: Thousand Mountains Snow in the form of a hand knife, piercing violently, cutting open the limbs and internal organs of the prey one by one. The Immortal-level close-fitting armor and flame defense collapsed instantly.

The Fire Thief vaguely saw the sharp nails of the vampires from the hundreds of knife blows that he had no way of dodging. At the last moment of life and death, he stared into the enemy's bright red eyes and roared while conveying information to his brother through the player channel.

"The True Ancestor of Darkness!"

boom!
The fire thief's body exploded and shattered into pieces.

Just one move, life or death is decided.

The knight waved his hand calmly, completely annihilating the residue. A familiar force surged over him, and he immediately disappeared after accepting it. His own Fire Stealing Seal had long been integrated with the Demon Eye. He had up to 90% damage immunity against epic and lower-level fire attacks.

The next moment, the space fluctuated violently. Tachibana's face was heavy, and he used his space ability to rush over quickly, but the encounter ended too quickly. He threw the half glass of red wine in his hand into the sea of ​​fire, took out the communicator, and immediately contacted the Blue Monarch.

"problem occurs."

……

at the same time.

Adachi-ku, Kyujuku Building.

"Roar!!!"

An indescribable violent roar came from the top of the building, like a low-altitude thunder.

On the surrounding streets, passers-by covered their ears and ran away. The Nine-Nine Group is the headquarters of the Yakuza in the entire Tokyo. Hundreds of thousands of Yakuza members gather under the command of the Red Monarch, and their deterrent power is sometimes far greater than that of the Taiko Inspector.

"Aselt!"

"I swear I won't be a human until I kill you!"

"Everyone, go out and find me!"

"Whoever can track down the True Ancestor of Darkness will be made the next monarch!"

On the top floor of the building, a burly man with red hair was going crazy. The heat was surging and the entire top floor seemed to be on fire. His most trusted and most hopeful brother died in less than half a day after he arrived. All his efforts were meaningless.

The wings of the blood clan, the eyes of the blood clan, the nails of the blood clan, and the ones who can kill the golden master with one move, there are only a handful of sub-heroes in this world. Considering that most of the true ancestors are in the Blood Kingdom, the answer to who did it is obvious.

A long while.

The Red Monarch is like a volcano that could erupt at any time. He has barely calmed down. The fire is only a part of his power. The destructive power granted by the Sword of Damocles is the fundamental power at this stage.

"Can anyone tell me what my brother was doing before he died?"

A very plump secretary stepped forward and answered tremblingly: "The Second Young Master should be looking for lost history. He may be afraid of something about the First True Ancestor..."

"Get down."

The Red Monarch interrupted coldly, pointing at the conference table and giving an order.

The secretary came to the desk, his body trembling as if he were a sieve.

"Don't think I don't know that you have repeatedly hinted to him that he should share my worries."

"It's not your turn to be dissatisfied with the priority between us brothers."

"Today, I'll let you die comfortably, so that we can part ways in peace."

"Others please get in line and give her a ride."

The eyes of the Jidao leaders were dark green and their expressions were excited. They had sworn to follow the Red Monarch until death, which was worthy of their vows.

……

Magic High School, Auditorium.

The ceremony was interrupted by a loud explosion in the laboratory building.

Jiang He opened his eyes and pure white flashed by.

[Name: The Demonic Eye of All (20%)]
[Category: Functional]
[Quality: Immortal Grade]
[Effect ①: You can see everything within a radius of 81 kilometers]
[Effect ②: 90% immunity to fire and thunder of Immortal level and below, and 10% true damage to the fire and thunder (shine element) of the self]
[Effect ③: By absorbing the advantages of other flames, the quality of your own flame can be enhanced, and the upper limit is the same as the magic eye level]
[Effect ④: The magic eye has merged with the body, and can sense the existence of fire thieves in the same world. The target cannot plunder its own magic eye]
[Effect ⑤: The attack contains immortal-level paralysis]
[Effect ⑥: Mystical Eyes of Radiance – Launch Radiance elemental attacks through sight]
[Note: He is dying]
10% of a fairy god's legacy successfully promoted the Demon Eye of All to the immortal level.

"Notice: Ladies and Gentlemen, due to an unexpected explosion in the laboratory building, it is suspected that the magic experiment has gone out of control. Please stay away from the relevant area. The opening ceremony is temporarily suspended."

"Supervisors at all levels ensured the orderly evacuation of trainees."

The scene became somewhat chaotic. The experimental building was not far from the main teaching building. The heat wave had already swept in and the temperature rose sharply. Dozens of supervisors came from various floors to guide the freshmen out of the auditorium. Before the group awakening ceremony, the classes had not yet been assigned.

Jiang He planned to blend in with the crowd. The knights' strength, except for the dragon spears and various equipment, was basically the same as his own. The effect they displayed should be quite close to that of the monarchs.

The sub-heroes in this world have no domains, and therefore no golden status. Theoretically, they are much inferior to the Imperial Thousand Bulls who died in the Eternal Dark World.

Regardless of the alibi or the difference in strength between the inside and outside, he no longer doubted the sequence. The next month, until the Tyrant Martial Saint Body was upgraded, would be a stable period for him to settle down.

"Your Excellency."

The silver-haired young man walked over, ignoring the fluctuations in space, and the people on both sides seemed to consciously give way.

"Please follow me. The target file is in the conference room."

Jiang He glanced at Shen Dai Future who was helping to maintain order on the podium. It seemed that this guy couldn't tell the difference between primary and secondary.

……

The noise gradually faded away.

The two quietly left the auditorium.

The operations building is located on the left side of the main teaching building. It has a total of thirty-three floors. A three thousand-man guard directly under the Magic High School is stationed here. The majority of the guards are composed of former graduates, and all of them are magicians.

"The Operations Department has a long history, dating back to the beginning of the Doomsday Era. After Principal Tachibana became the first sovereign, he did not choose to establish a family, but instead led the creation of the Magic High School. However, the Guard quota was retained."

The two walked into the elevator and through the one-way glass, they could see the experimental building that looked like a torch. If they were in the Bronze World, the Fire Thief's move could completely destroy a large city.

Silver Blade continued to introduce patiently: "The essence of the Operations Department is the student management organization and external combat command. The director is elected by the students and has the greatest authority to independently start local wars outside the fortress. Of course, he has no right to influence the inside of the fortress."

"There are several important classes in the department, including the operations class that reports directly to the director, the accounting class that manages the school's group, the discipline class that manages the students on a daily basis, and the record class that is responsible for archival intelligence and the like."

The elevator stopped on the 33rd floor. Directly opposite the door was the conference room, from where one could overlook the layout of the entire campus.

In the conference room, there is a long table in the middle, and on the walls are maps of the wilderness and fortress, as well as photos of outstanding students from previous years. However, most of the photos have become gray, symbolizing death.

Silver Blade led someone to the position of the First Operations Section Chief, turned around and said with a smile:

"Please take a seat. You have the strength of a tactical magician, and you defeated the old master of the Blue Clan, the Light Realm. You deserve to be the leader of the three combat section chiefs. Normally, only third-year students and freshman representatives are qualified to enter this conference room."

"Chief of Operations, you have the authority to mobilize 200 magic guards at ordinary times, you are eligible for three wrongful death awards every year, and all exams will be graded A. However, the latter two are just so-called unspoken rules, please do not publicize them."

"In addition, I am currently the deputy director, and Miss Nanase Maki is the director. We are both rehired. It is related to the recent intensified war outside the wall. Jiuye Mirai will join the third operations section chief later."

Yin Ren did not say where the two original operations chiefs are now, so it can be basically assumed that they are dead.

Jiang He seemed to be thinking about something. Perhaps because of the doomsday environment, the operations department of the Magic High School was more like a military organization.

A document lies quietly at the seat of the First Operations Section Chief.

Longchuan Zhengren, male, 39 years old.

One of the seven-member board members of Exploration Corporation and a tactical-level magician.

In the 46th year of the last calendar, that is, half a year ago, during an urban exploration outside the fortress, he cooperated with a tactical-level wild angry beast, resulting in the death of the former first operations chief and six trainees.

Yin Ren came to the bar in the corner, took a bottle of expensive sake from the shelf, poured two glasses, and gave them to someone.

"Because the cost of tracking down is too high for Taiko to bear, there is no law outside the fortress. Even if you are guilty of a heinous crime, as long as you don't commit the crime in the fortress, no one will pursue you."

"Exploration Company, whose business is mainly external."

“The high mortality rate requires a huge talent pool.”

"To this day, the Magic High School still ranks first among the four prestigious schools, and is leading by a large margin. The competition for high-quality students is the fundamental disagreement between us and Exploration Company."

Yin Ren opened the second page of the document. On the almost blank page, there was the principal's seal and signature.

"Operation objective: execute Longchuan Zhengren."

"All consequences arising from this will be borne by the school and the principal."

"He possesses the Great Magic, Forbidden Magic. I am no match for him, but you are definitely the best person to execute this guy."

Silver Blade spoke earnestly. The tactical magicians who specialized in physical strength were basically angry beasts in human form. Prince Coffin was particularly outstanding. In a one-on-one fight, the probability of killing the target was over 90%.

Jiang He lowered his eyes and thought secretly.

If he had to kill, he would activate a full set of equipment skills including the Eternal Night Hunter, the Magic Eye of All, the Astrology Array, etc. As long as Longchuan Masato was still in the Tokyo circle, he estimated that he could take the head in a quarter of an hour.

But the moment the head falls to the ground, he will probably be targeted. This level of hunting means that he can quickly hunt down anyone except sub-heroes.

"Time." Jiang He asked.

Silver Blade looked at his phone and replied, "In ten days, Class A of the first year will have a wilderness survival test. I will change the survival location to Kanagawa Prefecture. Masato Takagawa is currently there exploring the byproducts of water purification technology on behalf of the company. It's suitable for action."

Jiang He nodded and approached inconspicuously, which was one of the relatively critical preludes to hunting. The other party was qualified to be re-employed, which showed that he had qualified qualities.

Moreover, he could take advantage of this opportunity to get the speed-type angry beast bloodline dealt with as well.
