Chapter 937: The Unknown Fourth Man
Divine Beast International School Avenue - a suburban open space
By the time Erwin and Lily arrived, the lightning had stopped, and except for where Nebula was, the open space on the outskirts was a mess, full of potholes and scorch marks.
"Yo~~ Isn't this Senior Brother Erwin and Senior Sister Lily? Can't you come faster? It's all over on my end!! ”
Seeing the friendly army arriving, Nebula barely supported his empty body with the Black Elf King Scepter, jokingly and pretending to be relaxed to say hello to the two.
Erwin ignored Nebula, instead took two steps forward and tapped Nebula's forehead with his finger.
Suddenly, a small and strange blue magic array appeared in front of Nebula's forehead, and the lines of the magic array loomed, as if they would disappear at any moment.
"Senior Brother Elwin, you...... What are you doing? I'm fine...... There should be nothing to do, just rest for a few days......." Perhaps sensing Erwin's purpose, Nebula reluctantly pulled himself together and explained to Erwin.
"Smack~~"
Nebula waited for a hard slap from Erwin, if it weren't for Lily on the side who stepped forward in time to help, this slap almost knocked the weak Nebula directly to the ground.
After being beaten by Erwin, Nebula was furious and wanted to fight back, he had obviously solved this matter perfectly, why should he be beaten?
And yet—
When Nebula saw the tearful Erwin in front of him, Nebula's anger suddenly dropped to the freezing point, didn't Erwin always look like a playboy, and Erwin, who looked heartless, actually cried, could it be that Erwin was .......
Erwin choked up and questioned Nebula, "Why?" Why would you do this? You could have found a way to delay until we arrived....... It's my responsibility to open the door of the dimension by mistake, it's my responsibility to let the dark monster run to another world, it's all my fault, I don't want to see you fight hard for this, I don't want to see you get hurt for it......"
Hearing this, Nebula realized how much pressure Erwin was under, although he usually didn't seem to care about the appearance of the dark monster in another world, but in fact, Erwin cared about this matter very much, hoping to solve this matter safely through his own strength and not cause trouble to others.
Lily on the side also suddenly understood that her brother Erwin didn't want to get involved in this matter, not because he looked down on him, but because he was afraid that he would be injured in the crusade against the dark monsters.
"Zira~~~Zira~~~"
For some reason, Nebula found that the magic power that should have been exhausted long ago continued to pour out of his hands, and the magic power that poured out absorbed the rich thunder and lightning elements around him, converted into electricity, and continued to gather in Nebula's hands.
"Boom~~"
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning popped out of Nebula's hand and bombarded the station not far away, destroying most of it.
Looking at his hands with surging magic and overflowing electricity, Nebula was at a loss, what the hell was going on?
Before Nebula could explain anything, Erwin said to Nebula seriously, "No matter what forbidden magic or potion you used, in short, you must not use magic again this week!" ”
After saying that, Erwin handed Nebula a pair of dark blue gloves, the gloves were engraved with a silver cross, and a dull light blue gem was inlaid in the center of the cross, which looked very luxurious.
Nebula took the gloves, and at Erwin's motion, Nebula put them on.
After putting on the gloves, Xingyun was surprised to find that the surging magic power in his hand quickly returned to his body as if it had encountered a natural enemy, and no longer overflowed.
However, it was as if he had been sealed by some kind of powerful seal, and it was difficult to mobilize his magic and spiritual power.
Xingyun asked Erwin with a puzzled expression, "Senior Brother Erwin, these gloves are ......."
"This is the Demon Sealing Glove, the Demon Sealing Glove can seal most of your magic power, it is stronger than any hidden magic, I usually use it to conceal the aura, and then take it off when I show my form. But for now, you need it. Erwin explained the nebula in detail.
Nebula nodded to Elwin, he was now in an extremely weak state, and it was difficult to manipulate even basic mana, and if he continued to use magic, he would probably lose control like before.
At this time, Xingyun suddenly thought of something, and anxiously asked Erwin, "Senior Brother Erwin, have you seen Aleeda?" She was supposed to be around here, though the greedy troublemakers she summoned because of her insatiable greed for money, but she wasn't guilty of death. ”
Erwin was stunned for a moment, then shook his head at Nebula, indicating that he had not seen this person.
"Could it be that she's already .........," Xingyun muttered to himself with a chill in his heart.
There was no way, at that time, when he faced the attack of the greedy troublemakers, he could only release that uncontrollable super lightning storm, and he didn't have time to think about whether there were people around.
Although he placed Arida outside the barrier when he cast the Four Peerless Magic Enchantments, the range of the Super Lightning Storm after that was significantly beyond the enchantment.
You must know that the earth-shattering thunder of the super lightning storm is difficult for even the greedy troublemakers to resist, and the two thunderbolts are directly extinguished, and Arida, who is a human being, is afraid that there is no scum left.
Nebula felt very uncomfortable in her heart, no matter how bad Aria's character was, she had no right to deprive her of her life, she was the first person she had killed by mistake.
Just as Nebula was expressing his condolences to Arida and recovering the Staff of Flame, the Staff of Emerald Shadow, the Staff of Ice Muscle, and the Staff of Thunder Spirit Beads used in the Four Gates, Nebula spotted a figure in the far corner of the clearing.
Areda !!
Areda is still alive!? What's going on?
Nebula hurriedly trotted to Areda's side, and heard Areda talking in a sleepy voice: "Eh~~~ The Divine Beast Group is mine....... It's my ......."
Nebula shook Ahereda's body with difficulty, waking Areda up, looking at the confused Areda Nebula asked Areda with a full stomach of doubts, "Aunt Aleeda, are you okay?" Do you know who saved you? ”
Arida shook her head and replied to Nebula, "I don't know, I don't know anything!" The back of the head felt like it had been hit hard by something, and the skull hurt ......."
After saying that, Arida frowned and fainted again.
At this time, Lily walked over and said to Nebula, "Don't worry! This aunt is fine, but she was absorbed by the troublemaker and her body is a little weak. ”
After saying that, Lily kindly poured a bottle of red potion into Arieda.
Recalling what Arida had just said, Nebula's doubts increased, and Arida said that the back of her head hurt, whether she had fallen on her own, or was someone ........ her
Could it be ....... In addition to himself, the greedy troublemaker, and Areda in this clearing just now, there is an unknown fourth person!?
It stands to reason that Areda is also within the attack range of the Super Lightning Storm, and when the lightning of the lightning storm falls, it will prioritize locking on to living objects, and Areda should not have been unharmed.
The only plausible hypothesis is that an unknown fourth person has appeared, who protected Areda from the constant onslaught of the lightning storm and left the area before Elwin and Lily arrived.
Who the hell is this unknown fourth person? Was it a moral imperative for him to save Areda or was there some other purpose? How strong is he? Did he see his own face?
In the midst of many doubts, Nebula returned to the Maple Leaf Apartment with Erwin and Lily......
★?????????????????? ★
A few days later - the Divine Beast School office
"Please come in!"
In the crisp voice of Shinas, a female police officer wearing a police hat and a uniform with a serious expression walked in
office.
If Xingyun was present, I am afraid that he would exclaim on the spot, because this female police officer looked exactly like the transfer instructor of the shooter village training camp.
Shinas chuckled and greeted the female police officer: "Hello~~~ police sister! ”
"Officer Helina, how is the investigation into Chairman Arida going?" Nanhart put down the pen and book in his hand and asked the female officer cautiously.
Herina clasped her hands and said to Nanhart seriously: "I take this opportunity to thoroughly investigate the people around the chairman....... It turned out that they were making elaborate plans to get rid of the school. ”
"Areda actually colluded with the construction company and made a plan to build a department store in advance." Helina said to Nanhart and Shinas with a cold face.
Shinas's face suddenly turned pale: "Oh my God! How could the chairman have made such a plan!? ”
"I may not have to call her chairman anymore! If you make a mistake, you will be punished, won't you? The corners of Helina's mouth curled slightly, and she said to Shinas.
"Then I'll go first, and I'll contact you again if there's any progress."
With that, Helina raised her right hand, saluted Shinas and Nanhart, and walked out of the school office in a heroic manner.
After Helina left, Shinas lay on the sofa in his office weakly, looking very depressed.
"Miss Shinas, how do you look listless?" Nanhart chuckled and asked Shinas.
Shinas pouted and asked Nanhart, "Nanhart, am I too simple?" Now I can't believe anything, I can't believe that the chairman is planning such a big conspiracy by my side! ”
"And the legend about the transfer students is also ....... I was happy about this for a while, but I didn't expect it to be all fake! I believed such rumors, what a fool I am! Shinas muttered to himself in frustration as he thumped the Green Water Spirit pillow.
Nanhart half-crouched down, shook his finger and said to Shinas, "That's not the case, the story of the transfer students of fate is real. ”
At Nanhart's words, Shinas's eyes shone again, and his ears pricked up like a rabbit.
Nanhart coughed lightly and continued to Shinas, "Ahem~~ I found an interesting book in the reading room, which was the book that the headmaster recorded about this school at the time. Strangely, the phrase "transfer student of fate" is mentioned many times. In other words, the legend of the transfer student of fate is passed down from generation to generation from the headmaster of one generation. It was ....... 'Every time this school is in trouble, there is a transfer student of fate who comes to the rescue'. The original text is relatively simple, and the rumors produced by Chairman Areda are actually adaptations of legends that really exist. ”
"Well, you mean, Nebula is really ......" Shinas replied to Nanhart as he hugged the Green Spirit pillow tightly, looking very happy.
Nanhart frowned slightly and retorted to Shinas, "Who knows! Anyway, I don't believe in legends or fate or anything, those things that don't have logic. ”
"I'm still interested in that Nebula, though......." Nanhart raised an eyebrow and replied to Shinas.
(Well~~ The first chapter of the campus season is over, and there should be some adventure world plots interspersed after that~~~)
