Chapter 524 School Festival
Chapter 524 School Festival
April 47, 4th year of the last calendar, morning.
After the four-seater vehicle picked up the Silver Blade, it began to move towards Tokyo Fortress.
After contacting the Department of Magic, the school relayed the news from Taiko. In view of the performance and contributions in the battle to recapture the vampire city, the Nine Clans of Taiko invited someone to go to the building to receive the military reward without having to bring weapons and equipment.
"What are the usual military awards?"
Jiang He, the co-pilot of the vehicle, casually flipped over a page of the Holy Martial Canon and asked without even looking up.
Kamishiro Mirai, who was driving, thought about it carefully and replied, "Basically, they are all controlled by resource-based groups. In this era, survival resources are the most important. If you want some powerful props, you may be disappointed. After all, before the Doomsday and the Exploration Era, this is still a bronze world."
Jiang He nodded, and then he would ignore Taige. Anyway, he would not be the one who was anxious.
The nearly encrypted conversation of wills belonged to another channel to Silver Blade in the back seat, who was busy taking over the operations department remotely.
After the recovery war ended, Nanase Maki chose to rebel during the war because of the influence of the Shadow True Ancestor. The conclusion given by Taiko and the Magic Department was that she was sacrificed. It is unknown how much the Nanase family contributed behind the scenes, but at least they saved face judging by the result.
The vehicle moved quickly across the wilderness.
Jiang He rested for a while and began to examine himself.
"There seems to be a lot of redundancy in the combat system."
Jiang He took out the bone assembly battle flag and the dinosaur cube. The former was perfect and the latter was ultimate. Both things could no longer keep up with the combat power and needed to be strengthened through gluttony.
Then, Jiang He took out another energy crystal, Sun and Moon Passing Like Shuttle. He couldn't remember exactly where this thing came from. Its quality was perfect and related to speed.
In the portable imperial city, all the messy alien blood crystals, wild beast corpses, alchemical bullets, source power weapons, etc. were vacated and refined into the most basic extraordinary factors by the gluttonous black light.
Finally, Jiang He discarded his perfect-level skill, the Dragon Turtle Sword and Shield, and used all the garbage to create a brand new Immortal-level item, which looked like a bone ring.
"The eighth ring."
[Name: Skeleton Dragon Rider Ring]
[Category: Production]
[Quality: Unbreakable]
[Effect: By combining high-quality bones and flesh, a warhorse-like undead creature - Skeleton Dragon Rider is created. Its overall combat power is approximately equal to that of ordinary creatures in the Golden Age, and it is specialized in speed.]
[Note: Gluttony Production]
Jiang He nodded slightly. The Skeleton Dragon Knight was expected to be used as a vehicle mount for the Evil Guards, and he himself did not need the Undying-level combat power enhancement.
Next, he completely integrated the Wilderness Hunting Armor, which he had not worn for a long time, with the Dawn Intelligence currently carried on the Saint Lilith to strengthen the hardware functions.
The item "Hidden Soldiers Chapter" is currently divided into two versions, the main and the duplicate. In the epic original version, Pei Xuanran is in a state similar to being frozen in sleep. As for the duplicate, there are some beautiful women given by Yong'an families. They have been trained since childhood and are good at music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but they are not of much value. They can be used as ladies' paintings to decorate the residence in the future.
Jiang He continued to examine himself. In the battle with the True Ancestor of the Night, the aftermath of the two caused a large number of casualties among vampires and humans, but the title of Ye Tu did not overflow.
"The essence of Ye Tu is the symbol of killing, not death." Jiang He thought thoughtfully. This point is very important, which means that to some extent, killing and death are equal.
However, despite this, it is not a big problem to upgrade once, and he founded the Hospice Society. Given the special nature of the doomsday world, the title will be fully upgraded soon.
[Hint: Your Immortal-level title, the First Emperor, has been promoted to the Epic level]
[Name: First Emperor]
[Category: Title]
[Quality: Epic]
[Effect ①: Emperor - When the war begins, the four basic attributes of the group members and animal companions are temporarily increased by 10 points]
[Effect 5: Divine Punishment - The target who kills a large group of members will be hated by the heavens, and each curse of heaven will cause points of true damage (same level or below)]
[Effect ③: King's Land (All under Heaven is the King's Land) - When activated, you can return to the place you have been to or passed by, consuming 400 gold energy each time (same as in the world/current state and border)]
[Effect ④: Wang Chen (The Land of the Kings)——The holder can obtain the five senses of a large group of members or dependents. When the spiritual will is not lower than gold, the same world/present state and border will can be descended]
[Effect ⑤: Boundless - Vision abilities are within the actual control range of the subordinates, and the full-area three-dimensional viewing effect is obtained]
[Effect ⑥: King's Shadow - Obtain a fully controllable King's Shadow, which can open a large-scale protection for the target area. The defense strength is the same as the title rank, and the range is equal to the area of the domain]
[Note: This title is the highest honor in the ancient martial arts world]
……
The next morning, the three arrived at the fort.
The weathered and heavy door rose, and on the observation platform inside the wall, a young man clutched the guardrail with both hands, leaned forward, and stared at the passing vehicle with eyes full of hatred.
"Nanase Kouki."
Not far away, the gray-haired military commander said, "Control yourself. Your sister's death was ultimately caused by the True Ancestor."
"What a joke!" Nanase Mitsuki punched the guardrail hard and said angrily, "Can you prove that guy's innocence with just that little information?"
"It doesn't prove he's guilty. Besides, the wilderness outside the wall is a lawless place. Due to the cost, we don't support legal prosecution. Do you know how much time and effort it would take to send a professional team to conduct an on-site investigation? Besides, there are also danger issues..."
"I don't care!"
Nanase Mitsuki turned around, his eyes wide open, "The Jumonji family and your Ichihui family will definitely not mind lending me their strength and manpower. I must take revenge!"
"He is an uncrowned monarch." said the gray-haired military commander.
Prince Coffin has confirmed that he has killed the True Ancestor of Shadows, but because the battle took place outside the fortress's control area and the high-intensity fighting resulted in a large number of deaths and destruction, the undercover agents lurking in the Vampire City were unable to obtain much useful intelligence.
In fact, even the tactical-level officers have to be cautious when watching the battle, and one can imagine how many tactical-level officers there are acting as undercover agents, or to be more certain, there are none at all.
"I know." Nanase Mitsuteru calmed down and said resolutely: "But his followers can't possibly have the fighting power of a monarch. Besides, he has fought with two True Ancestors one after another. It is impossible for this guy to be unscathed. Let's wait and see."
The gray-haired military commander could not help but sigh. Just as the other party said, no party would shy away from the next action against Prince Coffin. The only difference was in how explicit and how tough it was. A new monarch would be a huge shock to the existing structure of the fortress.
"The original intention of the school festival was not to use it as a tool for you guys to realize your ambitions."
……
"School Festival?"
It was clearly a question, but the tone was so light that it sounded like a statement.
In the vehicle, Kamishiro Mirai complained a little and replied, "The school festival is a celebration-like event. The apocalypse basically starts on April 4th and lasts for three or four days."
"Competitive clubs will organize competitions, and cultural clubs will host programs, including food, games, and bonfire parties. Someone will definitely be in charge of the haunted house. It's a commonplace thing, and every club has to contribute."
"Also, during the school festival, the four high schools will hold magic competitions, but most of the students are just there to watch. It's better to dance with the one you like at the bonfire party."
Kamishiro Mirai recalled her youthful years. Before she embarked on the journey of transcendence, she was an excellent student and the leader of the Kendo Club. However, due to her innate strength, she was unable to develop in this area for a long time.
"Hasn't your predecessor ever participated in a similar celebration?"
"What are you showing off?"
Jiang He glanced at the brown-haired girl.
In the back seat, Yin Ren suddenly looked up at the sky.
"how could be."
"Obviously I came first."
After waiting for a long while and no one asked, Yin Ren could not help but said: "You two, the new director is coming, and he has a mature team. The three of us have to stick together for warmth." "Aren't you acting now?" Jiang He frowned slightly. He was planning to wait for Yin Ren to be promoted and then expand the scale of the hospice. As the director, in theory, he could trick students into coming to work for free and just give them some letters of praise occasionally to deal with it.
"The White Dragon Group is a magic organization that only appeared half a year ago. The school decided after a meeting to recruit the White Dragon Group as school workers. According to some obscure information that was leaked, the school directors were very dissatisfied with Nanase Maki's behavior of abandoning the A-class students and secretly ordering the infiltration of the vampire city."
Obviously, Yin Ren pushed all the responsibilities of the trio onto the dead. The battle to recapture the vampire city was essentially a remedial action by Nanase Maki that was stubborn and the three of them tried to turn the tide.
Yin Ren shared the information of Bailong Group with the two of them.
The group has a small number of members, only a little over a hundred, but all of them are magicians, and they all possess a power called Dragon Magic. The seven senior executives and deputy executives are all tactical-level magicians, and the others are also at military-grade level.
The leader of the group is called Dragon Queen. She once survived an attack by the Red Monarch and is very powerful.
"Senior..." Shendai Mirai said with hint of meaning.
A hint of viciousness flashed across Jiang He's eyes.
Violence +4.
If nothing unexpected happens, the White Dragon Group should be a certain Doomsday adventure group. He doesn't mind wiping them all out when the time is right. After all, the power of dragon magic sounds very suitable for Aya.
Moreover, even if they are not killed in the near future, when the End Coordinates are destroyed, both sides will inevitably become enemies. It is better to strike first to avoid trouble.
"The Silver Blade is yours, and it will be yours sooner or later."
"Thank you for your kind words, Your Excellency."
……
Later, the vehicle arrived at the Magic High School.
The security guard checked the student nameplates of the three people, and when he saw a nameplate with the position of Operations Section Chief and the information of a second-class student recorded, his expression looked a little strange.
For the magic department, students who fail to awaken basic magic, or who only know one basic magic, are considered to have insufficient potential and are defective magician talents. However, the head of the operations department must have outstanding martial arts skills, and the two are quite contradictory.
"Senior, it seems I have to take you to the information class." Kamishiro Mirai held the juice and said, "When you entered school, you were still an experimental subject, and according to the rules, you were ranked second, but now you have mastered great magic."
"For your Excellency the Prince's talent, being second-rate seems to be of no significance." Silver Blade commented objectively.
"Information about the Colorless Monarch." Jiang He said, "Is Principal Tachibana pretending to be dead recently?"
Silver Blade smiled helplessly and replied: "The Colorless Sword is exploring the company. Your Excellency has to intimidate Director Longchuan to make the investigation go forward. However, the Colorless Sword is indeed a very special monarch power."
Silver Blade gave a brief introduction. There are seven human monarchs in total. Among them, the Silver Monarch masters the power of space, the Gold Monarch masters the power of protection, the Red Monarch masters the power of destruction, the Green Monarch masters the power of order, the Blue Monarch and the Gray Monarch master the power of purification and curse respectively.
In a sense, the power of monarchs is relative to each other, and the inheritance is orderly. For example, the Blue Monarch has lasted for three generations.
But so far, the Colorless Monarch has never been born in the true sense, and his destiny and power are relatively mysterious. For decades, countless magicians have rushed to pursue him, but always missed it.
"It is said that when a monarch is made, the corresponding sword of Damocles will send a message to the instinct."
“Once the colorless monarch who symbolizes destiny is born, the Sword of Damocles will begin to reunite, giving birth to a complete hero who will end the apocalyptic era.”
"But before the end, there will be bloody pains."
Silver Blade looked at someone seriously and said, "The principal said that the first time he saw you, he knew you were someone who could grasp your destiny."
Jiang He remained noncommittal. The power of destiny usually belongs to the world. If the world does not want to see the seven swords of Damocles reunited, it means that the reunion will inevitably cause some major changes.
He bears the title, or symbol, of the enemy of destiny. The destiny of the colorless sword is hidden, and it is highly likely that it will be ineffective against himself.
But the question is, how did Principal Tachibana figure it out? If it was a player, the executive-only prompt would not respond. If it was someone else, the estimate would be even more confusing.
Jiang He pondered as he walked towards the Hospice on the first floor of the Action Building.
Kamishiro Mirai and Gin Ren stared in amazement as this guy left without saying goodbye, walking further and further away.
"Senior, I didn't say goodbye."
"We are just walking together, and sooner or later we will have to part ways. If you recognize this, there is actually no point in saying goodbye."
Jiang He waved his hand with a serious expression. He was distracted and forgot about these two guys. It was indeed a bit impolite, but there must be something wrong with Ju Jian. He was just not sure what kind of problem it was.
On the way, he passed the message to Zhuang Ya.
"Come over at noon, there are gifts."
"Ok."
……
At the same time, Chiyoda Elementary School.
"Zhuang Ya, don't be distracted during the activities."
"And you've been slacking off lately. I'm going to criticize you."
In the outdoor playground, the young female supervisor gently reminded students that they need to exercise before playing tug-of-war, but the little girl in white often perfunctorily attends similar after-school activities.
"flower."
Zhuang Ya took out a small white flower from her item bag, held it up and handed it over with a serious look on her face.
"Oh my, the supervisor is already past the age of liking flowers. Does every supervisor have that?"
"Only for you."
Wow!
The young female supervisor's expression changed, and she smiled so hard that she couldn't stop. She quickly took it and said with a smile: "Thank you, I like it very much."
Zhuang Ya nodded. This human was easy to deal with.
