Chapter 130 - Corrieff College (xiii)

Xiao Lan wakes up from his dream.

 

The Gothic ceiling, which you are used to seeing these days, is ornate and beautiful but cold.

 

Seemingly because they had taken up the plot task, the hint of a handwriting made up of water stains did not appear on the ceiling again today.

 

The room is somewhat dim.

 

Because of the forest, the sun was not very bright at Corrieff College and the curtains blocked out most of the sunlight, leaving only one ray of sunlight to penetrate through the gaps in the curtains and into his room.

 

Xiao Lan murmured softly with her eyes open, "So that's how it is ......"

 

He once entered the Advent world, only to be sent away by Luo.

 

Luo erased all traces of his entry into the Advent world and also erased his memory.

 

So Xiao Lan, who exits behind the door, has no recollection of having entered a creepy and scary place, or of having met anyone in that black tea-scented room.

 

Perhaps at the time he would have wondered how he had suddenly woken up in the middle of his sleep.

 

And yet you can't remember exactly what happened, and you may just end up thinking you had a dream, but you don't remember the content.

 

Then roll over and go back to sleep.

 

In the years that followed, he was able to live in poverty and hardship in the real world without risking his life because the power mark Luo left him at the time prevented the Advent world from reaching him.

 

All was calm because Luo had quietly shielded him from danger.

 

Xiao Lan raised a hand to block the sunlight coming through the gap in the curtains, but a smile hung at the corner of her mouth.

Goodbye, though it doesn't mean good things.

 

But it's good to see you again ......

 

--

 

Breakfast time.

 

Xiao Lan looks past the crowd and sees Luo, who is also watching him.

 

Xiao Lan just smiled at him, and Luo returned his smile with a graceful and reserved one, clearly without words, but both understanding the moment.

 

Next to the eating crowd: somehow I feel like I have an extra taste of dog food in my mouth what's going on ......

 

Is this some kind of story that the rebellious student and Mr. Hua of the High Ridge have to tell?

 

It's only been a few days, are you so quick?

 

It's against the rules you know?

 

After breakfast.

 

Xiao Lan found Dai Bumao and the pair moved through the crowd to find the few remaining players.

 

Luo also found a way to get away for a while.

 

A few people found a secluded corner and conferred quietly like a group of truant schoolboys.

 

Xiao Lan explained to them that the key to passing the level was to unblock Adeline.

Upon hearing that they would need to go out on the night of the red moon to break the seal, two players' faces changed, indicating their reluctance to participate: the

 

"We just want to stay in the dormitory, which is safe anyway."

 

After saying this, the two men left in a panic, as if they were afraid that several other people would force them.

 

Watching the two leave, Dai Bumao frowned: "How can there be such fools in the intermediate field? I don't know whether to call them lucky or hardened."

 

Xiao Lan also found it amazing that most of the people who played negatively in the beginner's field before and only thought about waiting for other players to pass and then dawdling after them didn't end well.

 

The fact that these two have managed to make it all the way to intermediate level by this method is nothing short of a salty king, showing that sometimes luck is part of strength.

 

However, it is not certain how long their luck will hold out.

 

The three men left behind, in addition to Xiao Lan and Dai Bumao, began to discuss arrangements for breaking the seal.

 

Xiao Lan: "My teammate and I can take care of the two seals, and you two will work in teams, so it's safer."

 

Dai Bumao asked, "Are you sure about that?"

 

Xiao Lan nodded, having fought with Mrs. Hong Yue, he had a little understanding of his opponent's attacks. Now that he was more familiar with his 15 year old body, if he met her again, he would have no problem escaping even without opening his skills.

 

On Luo's side, it was even less of a problem.

 

The two of them would have been sufficient if they hadn't needed to deal with four in a short time.

 

The group was divided into Xiao Lan for the northern tower, Luo for the western tower, and Dai Bumao and three others who worked in teams of two for the other two towers.

 

Xiao Lan: "Below the northern tower is Adeline, I'm going to put it last, you guys try to keep it at ten o'clock to break the seal and when you've all succeeded, come straight to the northern tower."

"If it takes longer than ten minutes and there are still towers whose seals have not been broken, the others will head that way for support."

 

The time is set at ten o'clock because there will certainly be a search for the seal beforehand, and Adeline doesn't say how it will be broken, so players will certainly spend a little time in it.

 

And after the seal is broken, there is no telling what will happen, and there is a bit of time set aside for fighting and dealing with the unexpected to do so.

 

After the discussion, the crowd dispersed and continued to play their respective identities.

 

--

 

By the end of the night.

 

As the red moon hung in the sky and the whole of Corrieff College was once again covered in its pale red moonlight, the players sprang into action.

 

The two men sitting in Luo's office drinking tea are no exception.

 

Xiao Lan was about to leave the house when Luo's voice came from behind him, "Please be careful, sir."

 

Xiao Lan smiled at him, "I will."

 

The two men split up and headed in different directions.

 

Carefully concealing his tracks, Xiao Lan approached the position of the northern tower.

 

On the way, we met Mrs. Hong Yue once, who was walking through the college with the gracefulness of a stroll.

 

However, Xiao Lan was able to hide behind a tree in time to avoid the scare.

 

Xiao Lan is once again in the Northern Tower.

Upon entering the tower, the inside remained the same as the last time he had entered, looking dilapidated and desolate.

 

The underside of the tower had been checked on their last entry and there was nothing resembling a seal, so this time Xiao Lan chose to go up.

 

The path up remained untouched for a long time, not even a footprint was left.

 

When they reached the topmost room, which had a heavy door and was tightly locked by a large lock, it was as good as gone in Xiao Lan's hands.

 

As you enter the room, you are greeted by a large stone carving that covers an entire wall and is cleverly carved to resemble the metal disc on Adeline's chest.

 

This stone carving is bathed in the red moon and is slowly rotating as if it has been infused with energy.

 

It's not that Adeline didn't tell the player how to break the seal, but that by "break" she meant physically break the carving.

 

What a hardcore way to break the seal!

 

However, if it's that simple there shouldn't be any players who can't get it right.

 

It was still some time before ten o'clock, so Xiao Lan took out his pocket watch and watched the time while he waited for movement in the other towers.

 

As he waited, a tiny bit of dust fell in front of Xiao Lan's eyes, while his ears picked up the slightest sound.

 

Something was approaching him and was coming from -

 

On the ceiling!

 

No sooner had the feeling of danger arisen than Xiao Lan leapt to the side and left where she had been standing.

 

At that moment he noticed that a white object had appeared on the ceiling, which was made of a hard-looking material and moved with great agility.

It was a snake-like spell puppet, large and with a structure somewhat similar to Adeline's snake's tail, but more rugged looking and less refined than Adeline's.

 

No wonder there were no guards around the tower and no traps all the way up.

 

I am afraid that Lady Weld, in order to keep Adeline's seal in place, had placed spell puppets near the seal so that anyone who came near would be attacked.

 

The spell puppets are not living beings, so they don't need to be fed or cared for, and usually don't make any noise at all, making them simply the perfect choice for tower guarding.

 

The spellbinding serpent missed and redirected itself on the ceiling, rearing up towards Xiao Lan with its mouth wide open.

 

Xiao Lan took out his [Bone of Dalet] and shot back without any weakness.

 

The hard bone stick clashed with the sharp snake's teeth with a loud sound, also striking the giant snake's head off.

 

Xiao Lan took the opportunity to step forward and hit the big snake on the head with another blow.

 

This big snake was made of some kind of material, much harder than the ones in the forest, and two sticks down only showed a slight crack.

 

The serpent shakes its head off and resumes its attack on Xiao Lan.

 

Xiao Lan dodged its attacks while looking for the most intricate pattern on its body. According to his previous experience with the spell puppet, he could stop the movement of the spell puppet or be seriously injured by destroying that spot.

 

The serpent attacked Xiao Lan several times, but he dodged nimbly, but the serpent was not the least bit impatient and continued to attack fiercely.

 

Between you and me, Xiao Lan found out.

 

Deep in the throat of this large snake there is a pitch-black spot that contrasts markedly with its white body, only too hidden by the position in which it is located to be seen from a slightly off angle.

 

Once again the serpent opened its mouth wide and attacked Xiao Lan, its sharp teeth coming straight for his head.

This time, instead of dodging, Xiao Lan accelerated towards the serpent, looking as if he wanted to take his own life.

 

The huge mouth of the snake has taken over Xiao Lan's vision, without the slightest fishy smell of the creature, but more dangerous than a real snake.

 

Xiao Lan clenched the bony club in his hand and jabbed it deep towards the serpent's throat.

 

"Boom..."

 

Xiao Lan's entire arm was already in the snake's mouth, and as soon as the snake's mouth closed, it could have bitten his arm off raw.

The snake's movements stopped, however, with its fangs just a palm's length away from Xiao Lan's arm.

 

Like a machine whose power has been switched off, the huge body collapses with a crash, its movements raising dust on the ground that looks like a red mist in the light of the red moon.

 

"Phew ......" Xiao Lan exhaled and moved her wrist.

 

Although his fifteen-year-old body is physically weaker in terms of strength, he has gradually adapted to the sensation after several battles and his fighting strength is gradually returning.

 

To make sure the snake didn't "fizzle out", Xiao Lan stepped forward, put his foot on the snake's body and used the Dalet's Bone as a crowbar to remove the snake's jaw.

 

Two more additions were made to the already shattered secret text pattern to ensure that it shattered thoroughly enough.

 

This way, even if it wanted to swindle, it would not be in a position to do so.

 

After packing up the snake, Xiao Lan looks at his pocket watch and sees that ten o'clock has arrived.

 

Almost in sync with the pocket watch, there was a rumble from the western tower and the whole college shook for a moment, the movement was really not small.

 

Luo is in charge of that side, and he is a reliable partner.

Shortly afterwards, there was also movement from the southern tower, which had apparently also succeeded.

 

Only the eastern tower remains, and Xiao Lan stares at his pocket watch, waiting for movement there.

 

But after another ten minutes of waiting, the college remained quiet.

 

Xiao Lan frowned and had a bad feeling.

 

I'm afraid something has happened to ...... over there.

 

Xiao Lan whispers, "Luo."

 

The next moment, Luo's figure appears at the window, bathed in the light of the red moon, as if it were a ghost under the moon.

 

"Sir."

 

Xiao Lan: "You keep watch here, I'll check out the east tower."

 

Luo: "I can join you."

 

Xiao Lan shook his head, "I'm only comfortable with you guarding this place, no one but you."

 

Looking into Xiao Lan's eyes, Luo smiled, "As you command, I will hold the fort."

 

He didn't insist on going along again, knowing full well Xiao Lan's desire for adventure, that protection and help would get Xiao Lan through, but not make him strong.

 

And it is indeed Luo who is best placed to guard this crucial place.

 

Naturally, he will not fail Xiao Lan's trust.

Luo leans against the window and watches Xiao Lan's figure disappear.

 

--

 

Xiao Lan darted quickly under the red moon, getting as close as possible to the Eastern Tower as fast as possible.

 

Came under the tower.

 

The eastern tower is quiet and there is no sign of anything wrong inside, but that is what makes it all the more bizarre.

 

Xiao Lan went upstairs and remained quiet the whole way.

 

Soon after, he was standing on the topmost floor, where the door to the room was hidden, the lock corroded by something that should be the work of a player.

 

But there was no sound at all inside the door and it felt very bad.

 

" Brother Xiao Lan." A somewhat familiar voice rang out from a dark corner not far away.

 

Xiao Lan turned around and at first glance did not notice anyone.

 

"This way." The owner of the voice spoke again, revealing a mouthful of gleaming white teeth.

 

Xiao Lan instantly understood that it must be Dai Bumao over there.

 

He's so dark that he's a self-protective colour, which is perfect for walking at night.

 

As we approached Xiao Lan, we found Dai Bumao doing radio gymnastics with the standard of an instructional film, which looked particularly comical on his tall, strong body.

 

As he jumped, he said, "Wait, I'll put myself in shape and we'll go in together."

Xiao Lan's heart once again flutters with sympathy as she watches the standard movements of her partner.

 

Tragic, just tragic.

 

Which bastard designed the skill of descending into the world?

 

Xiao Lan asked, "What about the other person you were working with?"

 

Dai Bumao said, "He went to the north side first."

 

After a quick stretching session, Dai Bumao's familiar green shield appeared.

 

He nods at Xiao Lan and the two push the door into the room.

 

The room is peaceful and quiet, the huge stone carvings on the walls are still turning and do not look the least bit different from the rest of the room.

 

There were two men lying on the floor, they were motionless and their chests seemed to have lost their rise and fall, clearly not in a good state.

 

Other than that, there was no further movement in the room.

 

But no one would think that this is the safe place, or else how did the two men on the ground get here.

 

Xiao Lan carefully went up to examine the two men on the floor.

 

Their breathing and heartbeat were weak and they should have been unconscious.

 

But there was no obvious trauma to their bodies and the cause of their unconsciousness could not be found for a while.

 

But there's no need to look, because Xiao Lan can already hear the sound of mosquitoes flapping their wings above her head.

He looked up, and sure enough, he saw a spell puppet shaped like a mosquito.

 

This spell puppet was the size of a small dog, covered in a dark grey hard material, with a pair of transparent wings on its back, plus sharp, blue glowing muzzles, and it was self-evident how the man on the ground had been struck.

 

This spell puppet has a mouthpiece that could be poisoned.

 

In the next instant, the mosquito-like spell puppet had lunged towards him, its muzzle aimed at Xiao Lan's vulnerable neck.

 

The speed is surprisingly fast.

 

Xiao Lan reacts quickly by turning slightly and backhanding the large mosquito with a club.

 

The big mosquito is also quick, narrowly avoiding Xiao Lan's attack.

 

But on the other side Dai Bumao's attack had already arrived.

 

A yellow blade of light attacked in the direction the big mosquito had dodged.

 

It turns out that the moment he saw the big mosquito, Dai Bumao had already done a body spin, after which he had the ability to attack from a distance, just in time to strike.

 

The big mosquito moved very quickly, and when it saw the blade of light coming towards it, it surprisingly turned around again to avoid it.

 

But it was only a matter of time before it dodged the blade of light and felt its body bound.

 

Xiao Lan switched [Bone of Dalet] to its least-used whip form, which is not strong in attack but long enough to trap enemies who are good at escaping.

 

Xiao Lan seized the opportunity to strike just as it was dodging Dai Bumao's attack.

 

The trapped mosquito tries to break free, but instead is yanked hard to the ground by Xiao Lan.

 

"Boom..."

 

The large mosquito smashes on the floor with a dull sound, but it doesn't break at all, and is obviously made of very good material as well.

 

Before it can adjust its movements, Xiao Lan has thrown it up again.

 

"Boom..."

 

Once again, it smashed hard into the ground.

 

"Boom boom boom boom-"

 

Xiao Lan's movements kept up as the big mosquito's body kept falling on the ground, finally a number of small arms and legs fell off.

 

For the last time, Xiao Lan flung the large trapped mosquito in his hand as high as it would go and then slammed it heavily into a stone carving on the side.

 

"Boom..."

 

The stone carving shatters in response to the sound.

 

The whole college also shook once again.

 

The big mosquito, who was the one who broke the seal, did not move any more, because it was left with a bare body and it really had no power.

 

At the moment, the carving has collapsed and the ground is covered with cracks from the smashing of Xiao Lan, interspersed with the limbs of large mosquitoes.

 

Standing in the ruins of her own creation, Xiao Lan smiles as if she is pleased with the result of her work.

 

The image was simply vicious and unforgiving.

 

It seems that the emotionless demolition machine has evolved into a happy, fully automatic demolition machine.

 

Unfortunately, Xiao Lan was slightly disappointed that no poverty value was gained.

 

"......" Dai Bumao gulped.

 

What's wrong with feeling sore all over after watching the whole process ......

 

This great man also seems to have been forced to shrink to fifteen, so how much power should he have had in his heyday?

 

Dai Bumao couldn't help but give his muscular but weak body a surreptitious pat -

 

It doesn't seem to be sturdy enough.

 

The author has something to say.

 

Xiao Lan: Which one of these bastards designed the Descent World skill?

 

Bai Tang: Me! (with a straight face)

 

Players: beat this guy to death!!!
