Magic High School.

Li Ge: "?"

When did I ever post a personal ad?

Never mind, that's not important. These people are obviously here to cause trouble. Li Ge understood. Right now, it's probably like the "Thirty Years of the Underworld in the Academy's Past"—a mere verbal argument could easily escalate into a full-blown fight.

He's very familiar with this kind of thing; things like Crows Zero are like that.

But we can't back down. They're from the Noble Phantasm Department, and each of them has a Noble Phantasm that's a secret weapon. Their combat power is known for its rapid development. Why would they be afraid of someone from the Mysterious Department?

"What's wrong? What's the matter?" Li Ge almost blurted out the classic "What are you looking at?"

Yi Lian, Xiao Ye, and Valerie immediately stood behind Li Ge to support him.

Despite their internal squabbles and chaotic behavior, they are incredibly united against any provocation.

Ripples summoned liquid fire, Xiaoye's shadow transformed into hair-like tentacles, and Valerie summoned a chibi-style pony she held in her arms...

Wait, why has your majestic Holy Light Pegasus turned into a chibi version?

If things weren't so bad, Li Ge would definitely have complained, but for now he suppressed the urge to complain, tilting his head back and looking down at the person opposite him.

The two sides are arrayed in a fighting stance, and if there happens to be a tumbleweed being blown by the wind in the middle, it will create an even more artistic atmosphere.

"Are you willing to admit that the radiance of the God of Order shines upon all, and that the power of the God of Order is unparalleled?" This handsome man, who was as beautiful as a woman, asked this question directly on the training ground.

In an instant, the entire training ground fell silent, and a question mark slowly rose above Li Ge's head.

They're not here to cause trouble, they're here to... proselytize?

"Okay, okay, the God of Order is powerful and awesome, the God of Order is invincible..." Li Ge coaxed them like children, treating them as religious fanatics.

"Thank you," Mishail said earnestly.

Li Ge: "..."

Can't he tell I'm being sarcastic?

Li Ge slowly picked out a question mark.

Mishael said very seriously, "Thank you for your praise of the God of Order. Order is willing to be your best friend, but Order will also be accompanied by competition. I will prove to the God of Order that I am the best subject, and in the future, after I have completely defeated you, I will make you submit to my God of Order."

“I saw your choices in the exam, but I believe my choices were correct. You were just lucky. So next time, I will defeat you fair and square.”

Li Ge: "?"

So, it's still a challenge to fight? Just worded a little more politely?

However, just as he was about to roll up his sleeves and fight, the group bowed to him and then left.

Only Li Ge and his three companions remained, ready to fight, but the other side politely left, which made Li Ge even more puzzled.

After they left, the other students from the Treasure Artifact Department were still pointing and discussing among themselves. Li Ge, puzzled, approached Yi Lian and asked, "What's wrong? I still don't understand what they meant."

“He wanted to beat you to your knees and then drag you away to convert to Christianity,” Xiaoye said.

Chapter 66 Special Training in the Western Sea

Li Ge: "?"

"That's a good summary. Don't bother summarizing next time. When you're silent, I can still think of you as a pretty girl." Li Ge was at a loss for words.

Every time he tried to treat Xiaoye as a woman, the girl would always say something that even Li Ge couldn't help but say.

"Sigh, to sum it up, you issued a challenge, and then your praise of the God of Order left these fanatics a bit bewildered. Although your words were crude, they were embarrassed by the praise, so they decided to have a serious match with you during the midterm exam." Yi Lian began to translate the meaning of the fanatics' words.

“Perhaps there’s another reason. These people think you got a high score last time because you were lucky, and that their choice was correct. It’s probably a conflict of ideas between some kind of religion, right?” Yi Lian continued to share her conjecture.

"Are you crazy?" Li Ge asked, expressing the biggest question she had ever uttered.

“Hey, you know what, to outsiders, they really aren’t much different from lunatics,” Yi Lian explained with a laugh. “But to them, we who don’t believe in order might be the lunatics.”

The group whispered behind the back of the group of Order God members, probably thinking that if they were overheard, the Order God members would draw their swords and duel them.

However, they quickly put the guy from the Church of Order out of their minds.

After all, as an ancestor once said, "I will give you time to catch up until you can no longer see him." Even though only Li Ge in the team has a higher score than him, it means that he is the defeated opponent of our team.

The group's attention quickly turned to Valerie's pony.

"Wasn't it that majestic Pegasus before? How come it's turned into a little horse head now?" Li Ge reached out to touch the little horse head, but found that her hand just passed right through it.

“I developed this slowly…” Valerie said, hugging the pony on her body, which made everyone else feel novel.

After all, no one else could touch this thing, but Valerie could, and it even looked a bit soft and sticky.

"My Pegasus can self-destruct, right? I thought it was too wasteful to use it all at once. Could I find a way to make it explode a few more times? So I tried to minimize the output of my Noble Phantasm..." Valerie explained how she developed her Noble Phantasm.

"Then after trying for a long time, I finally figured out the minimum amount of psionic energy to produce, and that's how it turned out!" Valerie picked up the pony, which paddled around like Simba from The Lion King being lifted up.

“At the same time, because the effort required is reduced, the cost is also much lower. Now, after the pony explodes, I only feel dizzy and lightheaded, not to the point of having a splitting headache,” Valerie said. “Should we find a place to try it out?”

"Alright, let's find a simulation trial then, and we can all test the power of our evolved Noble Phantasms," Li Ge suggested.

Actually, there was another special training class in the afternoon, but it didn't matter. The school's curriculum wasn't so rigid; they could make up for it later. They thought they should get together first and test their abilities.

The group arrived at the "virtual arena," where they could instantly enter a virtual arena designed by a school teacher and fight, just like playing an immersive online game.

Essentially, this thing is similar to Li Ge's virtual shooting training, but the virtual arena is more comprehensive and allows you to freely choose the venue and area you want.

Actually, putting aside the fact that it's a script, many of the school's training grounds can be played like holographic online games, or like virtual murder mystery games, with even horror, team, adventure, combat, intelligence and other types of scenarios.

Actually, after the holidays started, Li Ge would come here to play games whenever he had time. Training was one aspect, but the other was that he was purely addicted to the internet.

He could be considered a teenager addicted to the internet to some extent.

"What kind of business are you opening?" Xiaoye asked.

"Let me see if it's a combat adventure game. How about 'The German Serial Killer'? This kind of mediocre enemy is perfect for testing Noble Phantasms." Yi Lian found a training ground and clicked on it.

Li Ge: "..."

Wait, what serial killer?

He suddenly felt a sense of absurdity, but the next moment, the scene of the virtual arena changed abruptly, and they were as if they had been teleported, instantly falling into a place full of barbed wire and pits, the Jizhong Camp.

Corpses lay scattered haphazardly across the area, and the air reeked of poison.

The next moment, the sound of a chainsaw rang out. Li Ge turned his head and was immediately stunned. He saw a man with a side-parted mustache holding a chainsaw, rushing towards them like a madman, yelling "Whoa whoa whoa".

This isn't just a guy, it's a real "German serial killer"! Who created this insidious enemy?!

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the man with the mustache had a chainsaw in his left hand that had become one with his body, and a syringe that was constantly emitting poisonous gas in his right hand. He was clearly in a bizarre pose, like a chainsaw man.

Upon seeing this person, Li Ge almost couldn't control himself and raised his right hand at a 45-degree angle. Fortunately, he restrained himself, pulled out his ace Joker, and fired a shotgun blast.

"boom!"

Six psionic bullets blasted into the mustachioed man in an instant. However, these bullets, which could have ripped open the prime minister's chest, only made him pause slightly when they hit him. He then immediately rushed forward with a chainsaw in his left hand and poison gas in his right.

Li Ge: "..."

Should he sing "Erica" ​​while shouting "Hey!" to escape being hunted down?

"Don't be distracted!" In an instant, countless tentacled shadows immediately trapped the man with the mustache, tripping him up. Xiao Ye then elbowed Li Ge in the waist, allowing herself to dodge the chainsaw.

"Hiss~" Li Ge felt like his waist was about to be crippled by the elbow.

Then, in an instant, Yi Lian's entire lower body transformed into water element. Although it appeared to be a clear, azure stream, the surrounding plants withered instantly, and the earth seemed to begin melting into a lava-like form.

The water dragon poured directly onto the man with the mustache, instantly tearing his skin open and causing terrifying bursts of foul blood and poisonous gas to erupt from his body.

Everyone else seemed unaffected, but Li Ge was the only one who suffered a mental attack, and he was desperately teetering between holding on and breaking down.

"Little horse, go!" Valerie immediately tossed the little horse head she was holding. In the next instant, the horse head shot out like an arrow and collided with the mustache, and then...

"boom!"

An explosion, as powerful as Patrick Star's, suddenly occurred, and the group, caught off guard, were all thrown to the ground by the shockwave.

"The power of this explosion..." Li Ge complained, "It's probably comparable to a legendary mage's Fireball spell, right?"

Of course, the price was also obvious; Valerie was immediately dizzy, feeling like she was seeing stars.

"Trial completed, time taken 39 seconds. Completion time ranks among the top 100 in the current 'German Serial Killer' rankings, and among the top 3 in the new player group..."

As the broadcast sounded, the smell of poisonous gas and the corpses in the surrounding area vanished instantly.

Everyone left the virtual arena, but no one else realized what was happening.

"Such a powerful attack! Although the cost is high, it could easily blow up that road roller." Yilian complained. Why is it that both of them are evolving towards fire, but she only has liquid fire while Valerie can directly get an explosive pony?

“Ugh…” Valerie vomited as soon as she stepped outside.

other people:"……"

Okay, it came at a price. It's fun to explode, but it's painful afterwards. And the price for the small horse is the weakened version. If the big horse explodes, the price will be even more severe.

"I'm still not used to the cost. I can blow up the pony three times now, but I estimate I won't be able to withstand it after two. But it's still better than the excruciating pain of blowing up the pegasus directly," Valerie said, still a little dizzy.

Then the girl looked at Yilian pitifully and said, "How about we switch? You can have the Exploding Pony, and I want the Liquid Fire, okay? Or you can copy my Pony and try blowing it up yourself..."

Yi Lian: "..."

He's not a masochist, why would a lunatic want to suffer?

Although liquid fire has low instantaneous damage, it causes continuous burning, and the cost is very low. At most, you might accidentally burn yourself, so there's no need to switch.

“Then next time you’re going to blow it up, you do it, I won’t!” Valerie added insult to injury.

"No, you blow it up first!"

"You go first..."

"You go first!"

Chapter 67 Hypnosis and Seduction

The two started their usual playful bickering and chaotic antics again, with Li Ge laughing on the side. Suddenly, he delivered another elbow strike.

However, Li Ge managed to defend this time, blocking the elbow strike with his hand and then countering with a backhand elbow!

"Hiss!" Xiaoye gasped.

"I told you not to elbow me!" Li Ge said irritably. "Now you know what it feels like to be suddenly elbowed, right?"
