magic high school

Chapter 129 suggests that the lifespan of all races is limited.

Although the group was caught for illegally transmitting data, just like circumventing the Great Firewall to access the internet, they had to write self-criticisms and have a month's living expenses deducted.

But for them now, the 100 points of living allowance given by the school each month is no longer very important.

Yi Lian and Li Ge have found other ways to make money. Recently, they have been making a fortune selling pornographic images and various other videos.

As for Xiaoye and Valerie, they weren't actually short of money because of their scholarships. Xiaoye might be a little short, but that was okay; she could borrow some from them if she needed it.

After all, the two estimated that in a few days, after deducting the website's operating costs, they could probably afford to buy another piece of equipment.

Sooner or later they'll be covered in magical armor from head to toe, and they'll be able to ram a whole convoy of armored trucks into them.

As for whether the magic device will affect his original spell learning —

All I can say is, don't make the people in the Noble Phantasm Department laugh. Before the Noble Phantasm Department became a separate department, the mages in it were called "battle mages".

In other words, all their spells and abilities exist to enhance combat power, somewhat similar to the role of a witcher. They are often armed to the teeth, existing specifically as mages who excel in combat and slaughter.

Perhaps it could also be called Anti-Mage?

However, as the gap between battle mages and traditional mages widened and their directions diverged further, battle mages were separated and became the current Noble Phantasm Department. This school, which also focused on enhancing combat power, also evolved into a school specializing in Noble Phantasms—somewhat similar to companion spirit treasures—due to the maturity and evolution of the Noble Phantasm system.

Therefore, dressing up in full gear to beat up mages who can't fight is a tradition of the battle mage lineage. If you don't like it, don't play.

In traditional science, people spend half a day painstakingly preparing runes and magic circles, and then another half a day chanting. Even if someone can use high-speed divine incantations, chanting dozens of words per second, that time is still enough for battle mages to unleash their Noble Phantasms and then unleash their magical weapons.

Although Li Ge is now considered a semi-mystic, he knows nothing about the mystical arts. He's completely clueless about all the traditional skills of the mystical schools, from rituals and sacrifices to divination. However, he has at least a basic grasp of the field.

Still preoccupied with the matter of her armor, Li Ge bought some fruit from the elf lady's orchard.

Although I didn't recognize any of these fruits, the mature elf sister enthusiastically introduced them, including Dragon Blood Fruit, Life Fruit, and many other strange fruits, some of which could even increase the speed of spiritual energy absorption.

Li Ge was thus tricked into spending over ten points on a fruit basket. He couldn't help it; the elf lady was just too enthusiastic, and he almost got lost in the Northern Hemisphere.

This wasn't Li Ge's first time visiting the medical department. He had come here once before when Little Lola became a spirit, and purchased a top-of-the-line prosthetic body here.

He asked for the room number and even saw Yilian and Valerie doing something in the hallway.

"What are you doing?" Li Ge asked.

"I'm learning photography. Yilian said this hobby can make money," Valerie said, her wristwatch precisely finding the right angle for the shot.

Li Ge: "————"

He always felt that it was to take erotic pictures of himself?

After all, although there are many explicit pictures of the person on that website, most of them are selfies, and a small portion are still photos. And selfies have their limitations, and there are many angles that cannot be captured in a photo.

Is Yilian trying to trick a photographer into coming out?

"Take it easy, that kid's cunning. Don't get scammed and end up helping him count the money," Li Ge said.

[At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name 12199.99]

"What are you talking about? When has my brother Yilian ever lied to you?" Yilian joined in.

But actually, learning photography is fine, as long as you don't accidentally leak your naughty photos when you're fixing your computer.

"By the way, how are Xiaoye and Ryza doing?" Li Ge asked.

"I heard it's not a big problem. The medical staff have rarely seen individuals modified like this—" Yi Lian said with a troubled expression.

"Explain in detail."

"That girl's entire body has been modified. Rather than saying she was herself, it's more accurate to say that, apart from her soul and head, her whole body has been transplanted into another person's body. Not only that, but many strange parts and organs have also been sewn into her body—" Yi Lian complained.

"In the words of the medical department, it's less about modification and more about a crude and primitive stitched-together monster. It seems the company has stitched together all the uncertain magical organs from its experiments, wanting to see how it goes—"

"In short, this girl probably suffered a lot and had a terrible time. But thankfully, she's alright now. The medical staff think that instead of patching up this grotesque body, it would be better to give her a new body."

Li Ge: "————"

Although she had already experienced it before, Li Ge couldn't help but marvel at the school's medical capabilities. Changing bodies was as simple for them as deciding what to eat for breakfast.

In other words, unless the soul suffers irreversible damage or decays, the academy can retrieve it from the underworld like a ghost. No matter the severity of the injury, they'll simply give you a new body.

For the academy, cloning an original body or replacing it with a prosthetic body is a piece of cake.

Thinking about it this way, maybe the Magic Bio Company imagines itself to be like the Academy's Medical Department?

Well, comparing the Magic Biotechnology Company to the Medical Department is like comparing a shaman from a primitive tribe to a modern top-tier hospital.

So now, the only thing troubling the medical department is probably the issue of life expectancy, right?

To be honest, he had been in school for so long and had never heard of anything about prolonging life or immortality.

It seems that even someone of the caliber of a dean of students only has a lifespan of about 300 years, and there's no way to extend it.

As for the vice-principal, Li Ge suspected he was already dead, and that his so-called method of prolonging life was nothing more than transforming himself into a puppet or doll.

That was a guess I made when I caught a glimpse of the vice principal and discovered he was a puppet.

As for other races, even the long-lived ones, a thousand years is probably a critical period. It's as if something limits their lifespan, preventing individuals from decaying, degenerating, or going mad due to excessive lifespan.

Li Ge wondered if there had been some major trouble caused by things like immortality or potions in the past, which is why there is no such thing as immortality now?

Oh, right, Li Ge thought of the Cult of Order.

Could it be that immortality doesn't fit the definition of the Order God Cult?

Forget it, stop thinking about it. Who knows if that God of Order can hear us or not?

The group chatted about Lysa's condition. Although none of them knew much about medicine, even Valerie, a paladin, could only alleviate pain with her Holy Light at best, and not even that. It was better than nothing.

Therefore, Li Ge also needs to carry a small first aid kit with her to act as a part-time healer, otherwise there would be no one to treat injuries in the team, which would be a big problem.

I really had to be both a father and a mother to myself.

"By the way, Valerie, how's your hometown?" Li Ge asked casually.

This was also the time when the girl was most agitated during their discussion of the plan with the magic network. Li Ge complained that many of the Han Dynasty's systems were quite outdated, such as the recommendation system and the aristocratic system.

In the Han Dynasty, there were basically no channels for advancement. You had to sell yourself to a powerful family, become their dog, lick their boots until they were satisfied, and then wait for them to be raised for several years or even more than ten years before you could rise in rank.

This is so feudal. So when Li Ge was complaining, Valerie kept contradicting her, as if she thought the Han Dynasty's system was very advanced?

"Sigh, don't say it, it makes me feel bad just talking about it—" Valerie said directly.

"My hometown is a city-state system, you know? It's all about city-states, and they'd fight each other to the death."

Then there are the demons and monsters. Every time I come home, I get a headache. If only this place were as peaceful as the Han Dynasty, sigh—" Valerie said simply.

Whether this girl was at a loss for words or simply couldn't express herself, the way she spoke made it seem like her world was a massive cesspool.

"Aren't demons and monsters the same thing?" Yilian asked.

"No, not at all. Demons, as a whole, still have civilization; they are a race. But demons are just a bunch of chaotic things. Those guys seem to have no emotions other than killing. I've always wondered why there is such an absurd group in the world, a race whose core is entirely about killing and destruction—" Valerie complained, sounding quite troubled when talking about her hometown.

"Perhaps it's just a difference in translation; maybe the demon race from her hometown is closer to the spirit race or something like a star spirit," Li Ge explained.

"And what about you, Li Ge? How's your family?" Valerie countered.

Li Ge: "————"

Don't ask such questions. You have a lot of troubles at home, and your enemy is probably that elusive God of Destiny.

In the stories he read in his past life, there were all sorts of people defying the heavens, as if the heavens owed them something. Now, things have turned out that his enemy really is the heavens themselves, and Li Ge finally understands just how chaotic things are.

They all sighed. In short, it felt like they were all struggling to survive, barely managing to swim ashore in a cesspool.

"Click." The ward door opened, and the group sitting at the entrance looked at the senior student from the medical department and asked, "Senior, how is it?"

"It's not a big problem, she's been saved. However, her soul is also damaged. In this state, she can't absorb spiritual particles, otherwise the spiritual particles would take over and might even completely disintegrate her soul. In other words, she will never become a mage in this lifetime."

"Can we go in?"

"No problem, but don't agitate the patient." The senior student said, seemingly very busy, and left after giving a few brief reminders.

"It's good that people survive, it's good that they survive—" Li Ge and the others also felt that whether they could become mages or not was not important. After all, as long as they survived, there would always be a way.

After glancing at the ward door, Li Ge knocked and said, "Are you there? We're coming in."
