The walking dragon son

Chapter 296: Cocktail Party and Elites Two-in-One
Kuroyuki Ikki stood together with other people from Pojun Academy, looking at those in the banquet hall with an unkind expression.

If it were an ordinary opponent, Kurogane Ikki wouldn't be so hostile given his character. The key to the problem is that those people were the terrorists who attacked Pojun Academy before - people from Akatsuki Academy.

This cocktail party was actually organized by the competition operator. Although the Seven Stars Sword Fighting Festival is a competition between seven schools, the contestants are all rising stars among swordsmen, and each of them may become the backbone of the Magic Knights. Therefore, it is appropriate to communicate emotionally before the game.

It can be said that if Rebellion attacks this venue, it will be enough to cut off the future of the island nation's Bladebreakers.

However, those present were all excellent swordsmen, even stronger than most active magic knights. It is quite difficult to catch them all in one go.

But this year's situation is different. There is an Akatsuki Academy among the contestants.

As an academy led by Cabinet Minister Tsukikage Tapiruga, Akatsuki Academy has officially qualified for the competition, so it can also participate in the reception.

It's just that before, Kurotetsu Ikki thought that these terrorists would not shamelessly attend the cocktail party, but he didn't expect to actually see them.

Moreover, Tatara Yui of Akatsuki Academy put a blade quenched with highly toxic poison into the food that Kuroyukitsu Shizuku planned to take. Fortunately, Kurogane Ikki was sharp enough to knock down the roasted chicken, otherwise danger would likely have occurred. .

And it is precisely because of this that the good-tempered Kurogane Ikki is so angry.

Just as the two groups were confronting each other, the door to the banquet hall opened. A man and a woman walked in together.

After seeing the two people coming in, the two groups showed different expressions.

Everyone in Pojun Academy had joyful smiles on their faces, and the atmosphere in Akatsuki Academy became solemn.

Of course, the behavior of the Akatsuki Academy group was also different. Some were fearful, some were indifferent, and some showed fighting intent.

Stella held Ciel's arm, and the two walked up to Kurogane Ikki.

"Long time no see, do you miss me?"

Kuroyuki Ikki smiled and punched Ciel on the shoulder with his fist and said, "Just come back!"

Charles turned his head, his smile disappeared, and he said coldly: "I just said that the atmosphere was a bit wrong. It turns out you guys are here too!"

Ciel only showed a little bit of hostility and made everyone in Akatsuki feel like they were facing a formidable enemy. He even manifested his own spiritual equipment.

There was a tense situation caused by Tatara Yui's behavior before, but other people in Akatsuki Academy had no intention of participating.

But as soon as Ciel appeared, everyone in Akatsuki Academy became nervous. After all, the person in front of him had defeated them all not long ago.

Especially Tatara Yui, who was closest to Ciel, was no longer as arrogant as before, and the hand holding the chainsaw-shaped friend's spiritual suit began to tremble.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense, as if a war would break out at any time.

"This is a drinking party, not a place for fighting. If you want to fight, please come to the arena two days later. I also look forward to sharing the outcome with you."

The voice was calm but full of pressure. As the sound came, three people came over.

The leader was a tall young man. He was not wearing a formal dress but was wearing a special slightly ancient school uniform from Wuqu Academy, with a short cloak on the outside.

He wears a turban on his forehead, which makes him look particularly masculine given his thick figure.

The boy is one of the biggest favorites in this Seven Star Swordsmanship Festival. The previous Seven Star Sword King, <Naniwa Star> Morohoshi Yudai.

It can be said that he is the person at the top of the island country's student knights. No wonder he has such momentum.

The two people behind him were the same people who stood on the podium of the Seven Stars Sword Fighting Festival with Yudai Morohoshi last year.

This is the appearance of the most prestigious school in the island country, the Wuqu Academy, which has long dominated the Seven Star Swordsmanship Festival.

Wearing glasses and meticulously arranging her hair and clothes, this is last year's runner-up Byakuya Jonosaki.

The girl with a band-aid on the other side of her face is the third Asaki Taki.

As soon as the three people appeared, the entire banquet hall became solemn due to their strong presence.

Ciel originally didn't want to fight here, so he put away his hostility.

Others in Xiao Academy also relaxed and took back their inherent spiritual equipment one after another.

Only Tatara Yui, who took the initiative to stir up trouble, only felt that she was being laughed at by everyone like the clown.

And she also attracted everyone's attention without taking back her inherent spiritual equipment.

Zhu Xingxiong said loudly: "The Seven Stars Sword Martial Arts Festival is just around the corner. I can understand why you are so excited, but should you calm down?"

But if Morohoshi Yudai's accusation was considered polite, then Byakuya Jonosaki was directly mocking him.

"Really, taking out your inherent spiritual equipment in a place like this makes people have to doubt your character.

However, the inherent spiritual equipment will reflect the character of the owner. It is really as vulgar as your spiritual equipment. "

Tatara Yui smiled angrily and said, "This gentleman's character is not helpful in battle. Do you want me to let you experience it for yourself?"

With that said, Tatara Yui directly started the engine of the chainsaw spirit suit and pointed the tip of the knife at the trio from Wuqu Academy. To be precise, it was aimed at the leader Yudai Morohoshi.

But she stopped before she got really close.

Zhu Xingxiong laughed and said: "It seems that you still have some strength! If you casually step into the boundary of my attack, I can't guarantee that I will stab you with this thing."

Zhu Xingxiong didn't know when a golden spear appeared in his hand. The spear tassel behind the tip of the spear was like the hair of a tiger.

Facing the Tiger King, the unique spiritual weapon of Yui Hoshi, Tatara Yui knew that he had no chance to attack.

Ciel showed an expression of appreciation. Although he didn't take action, Ciel had already seen Zhuhoshi Yudai's powerful spear skills.

Whether it was the shot that few people present saw clearly or the flawless posture just standing there, it all shows the weight of the Seven-Star Sword King.

Especially in terms of cross-field dominance, he is unrivaled among swordsmen of the same level. No wonder it can suppress Todou Touka's unique sword-cutting skill - Raikiri.

This is also the reason why Tatara Yui dare not step into that field.

Beside Ciel, Kurogete Ikki said: "Ciel, do you see clearly?"

Ciel nodded and praised: "It's very powerful. I really don't know how to create that Qi that has been tempered for thousands of times. In short, he is a good opponent, isn't he?"

According to the schedule, Kurotetsu Ikki and Morohoshi Yudai are in the same division. Not surprisingly, the two will meet on the field soon.

Kuroyuki Ikki nodded and said, "I can't wait!"

Charles smiled and said nothing. Kurogane Ikki is like this, he pursues victory but also enjoys fighting against powerful opponents.

Not to mention him, even Ciel wanted to have a fight with Morohoshi Yudai. Of course, Ciel would limit part of his strength, otherwise fighting would be no fun at all.

"Ahahaha! Are you all in high spirits?"

There was a thick voice, and Charles saw a strong man two meters tall walking over.

He had a bearded face and a rugged appearance, and even the tuxedo he wore could not hide his bear-like physique.

"But no matter what, we can't waste food. We farmers work hard to raise chickens so that you can enjoy delicious chicken. If you don't taste it, it will be a waste of our efforts."

Although the strong man considers himself a farmer and looks very mature, he is actually only one grade higher than Kurogane Ikki. One of the top eight of the Seven Stars Sword Fighting Festival last year, the third year of Lucun Academy "Steel Mad Bear" Kaga Renji.

Kaga Renji walked over, picked up the bone-in chicken mixed with poisoned blades that was knocked to the ground by Kurogane Ikki, and stuffed it directly into his mouth.

Kurogane Ikki didn't have time to remind him.

You know, according to Duoduoliang Youyi, several kinds of alkaloids were added to it, and a lick of it was enough to poison an elephant to death.

However, such a highly poisonous substance was chewed up along with razor blades, bones and chicken by Jiawo Liansi and swallowed into his stomach.

"I'm from Akatsuki Academy. This poison can kill an elephant, but it can't kill me!"

Kaga Rensi is still as strong as ever, and nothing happened to him after taking the poison.

"Is this guy really human?"

This was the thought of everyone present, except that Duoduo Liang Youyi said it directly out of surprise.

Ciel couldn't help but sigh. Although there were various limitations to the supernatural power system in this world, it had to be said that it was really excellent in some aspects.

For example, the strong physique that Kaga Renji showed at this moment.

Ciel believed that if he did not use magic power, his physical resistance to toxins would not be as high as that of Kaga Renji.

Charles had also heard that there were swordsmen in this world who could perfectly piece together a person's broken bodies, and could even save a person if he was blown up.

When Ciel first heard about it, he thought it was outrageous, but after seeing it more often, it was no longer strange. After all, supernatural powers involve the power of laws, and their mystery is extraordinary.

Before Totora Yui could recover from the surprise caused by Kaga Rensi's inhuman physique, she immediately encountered a new situation.

A woman in a white coat hugged him from behind.

"Okay, I'm doing an examination, please be good and don't move!"

As the woman in white spoke, her hands really kept moving on Duoduoliang Youyi's body.

The members of Akatsuki Academy are all mercenaries from the dark world, and Yui Tadara has been active in the dark world as a killer.

For a killer, hiding oneself and getting close to the target without being discovered by the target is a compulsory course. At the same time, being wary of anyone who approaches has become an instinct.

But the woman in white not only approached her, but even hugged her body directly.

This surprised her even more than the fact that Kaga Renji used poison as a condiment.

Charles recognized the woman in white. Her name was Yakushi Kiriko, and she was a third-year student at Lianzhen Academy.

But she is better known to the public as a national-level magic knight and the number one doctor in the island country.

The operation that Charles had heard about before, which was to put the broken human body back together, was performed by her.

Her ability is the same as Kurogane Jushizuku's, both of which are elemental manipulation, but she is a water mage whose level is far superior to the latter.

When she approached Duoduoliang Yui just now, even Ciel only felt it vaguely. Because she transformed her body into water vapor, she approached the other party silently.

And seeing that Duoduoliang Youyi obediently reached out to take the medicine that pharmacist Kiriko gave her, and then looking at her surprised face, it was obvious that she didn't want to reach out on her own.

Ciel whispered, "You are controlling the opponent's body directly by manipulating blood? You are indeed the best doctor in the island country. This level of skill must be very terrifying when used in battle!"

Ikki Kurogane also nodded. It would be a real headache if he met such an opponent on the field.

Fortunately, although Yakushi Wuzi has been selected into the participating team for three consecutive years, she did not appear in the first two sessions, and this year should be no exception.

Duoduoliang Youyi was completely played around by Yaoshi Wuzi, but she had no intention of regaining her face.

There were so many sword cutters who were qualified to compete for the Seven-Star Sword King. How could she fight against so many people alone? So she could only leave in disgrace.

After Duoduoliang Youyi left, the atmosphere became much more harmonious.

Zhu Xingyudai took back his spear spirit weapon, but his aura remained unchanged.

He looked at Ciel and said, "You are Ciel, right? I heard that you withdrew from the competition. What a pity! I still want to fight with the strong man who can fight against the "Bi Yi" to a draw!"

Ciel understood that Yudai Moroboshi was not provoking him, he just simply wanted to challenge a strong man.

So Ciel replied: "If you still have this idea after the Seven Star Sword Martial Festival, we can find time to spar with each other."

Moroboshi Yudai smiled and said, "Really? That's great!"

Kaga Rensi on the side shouted: "I can't pretend I didn't hear that. Please let me see your strength!"

Pharmacist Wu Zi said on the side: "I am different from them. As a doctor, I don't like fighting."

Just then, another group of people came over, making the harmonious atmosphere turn cold.

Ciel looked at the Black Iron Horse and said, "Why, do you want to come with us? But you should also know that my attitude towards you is different from my attitude towards them. I might kill you directly this time."

Ciel was originally mocking Kurogane Ouma, but he unexpectedly said, "That's just what I want. I won't regret dying while challenging you!"

Ciel looked at Kurogane Ouma's serious expression and was speechless because he could feel that Kurogane Ouma was completely serious.

Charles will continue to regard a man with this kind of awareness as an enemy, but he will not underestimate him.

But Charles didn't have the same feeling towards the other person.

"If you look at me like that again, I don't mind killing you right here."

Charles turned his head with a look of disgust, because the man next to him was looking at him with eyes that were mixed with obsession and madness.

That was a masked clown, none other than Reizumi Hiraga, the most mysterious person in Akatsuki Academy.

And his entanglement with Charles began very early.

It first happened when he attacked Ciel and Stella with his rock golems while they were assisting the Student Council in investigating the Okutama Mountains.

Then, when Akatsuki Academy attacked Pojun Academy, he also only sent out one puppet, which was destroyed neatly by Charles.

"Another puppet? A rat is a rat, it will never see the light of day!"

Although the puppet was very lifelike and even conveyed the emotions of its operator, Charles still did not sense any breath of life.

So until now, Charles still doesn't know the true identity and appearance of the manipulator.

However, Ciel's insulting words made Hiraga Reizumi even more emotional. Ciel couldn't help but suspect that he had some serious illness.

I really want to tell him that the last person who was like this in front of Ciel was called Ishigami Yuto, and he died not long ago.

Pinghe Lingquan said: "You are back after all! Do you want to see me? Don't worry, we will meet soon!"

Ciel sneered, "Really? Then I'm really looking forward to...how to burn the real you to ashes."
