Magic Academy Bans Harem

Chapter 190 Solidification of Magic Particles
"Damn. What a strong suction."

In front of the ancient door, Courtline was lying on the ground, blood dripping from her hands that were covering her face.

"Cocotte"

Noah seemed more frightened than confused by the sudden incident. He finally came to his senses and ran quickly to Courteney's side.

"Your injuries are so, so serious"

"I'm fine, what's going on over there?"

It seemed that the area around her brow bone had been severely hit. Her face was covered in blood and looked particularly scary. However, unable to maintain a clear vision for a moment, Courtline simply pointed in the direction of the ancient door and asked Noah.

"The doors are closed and there is nothing left."

"Don't touch it!"

Courtline's reminder was obviously a little late.

Noah, who seemed somewhat absent-minded, had already touched the door with his hand.

Fortunately, she was not sucked into the door like Ritas and Merci.

"sorry"

"No need to apologize."

"Anyway, I'm sorry!"

After hearing Noah's trembling voice, Courteney, who had been wiping the blood for a long time, finally saw Noah's condition clearly.

Her face was extremely pale, and her lips and fingertips were trembling unconsciously. She was obviously in a very bad condition.

"Well, calm down, Noah, and take a deep breath first."

Suddenly remembering that Noah's mental state was sometimes unstable and that her power might go out of control, Courteney spoke to comfort Noah.

"Hot water, yes, drink some hot water!"

Courtline took out her wand and muttered something.

Although, conjuring up a cup of hot water can be considered as basic training in elemental magic.

However, Courtenay, who had been held back frequently due to poor grades and used mostly careless magic, had obviously forgotten all those delicate operations long ago.

Courtline first used earth element magic to raise a stone cup on the ground that was about the same size as the washbasin. Then she used wind element magic to float the washbasin into the air.

Next, Courtline switched to water magic. However, perhaps because she was overloaded by using multiple magic elements at the same time, she forgot to maintain wind magic.

Then, with a snap, the stone cup that had just been made fell to the ground and broke into pieces, and then with another snap, a pool of water poured onto a pile of stones.

Finally, with a “whoosh” sound, the last fire element magic appeared in the air.

"." "."

Noah and Courtine fell into a brief silence as they watched the fireball flicker.

"I calmed down."

"That's good. Uh, just like I expected!"

Noah really calmed down and didn't complain out loud. He tried his best to maintain Courtrine's "dignity as an adult".

After a while, with Noah's cooperation, the two finally drank a cup of hot water together.

Feeling the hot water flowing through his throat, his entire cold body warmed up. The fingertips that seemed to have lost sensation before also regained their flexibility. Noah breathed a sigh of relief.

However, looking at Courteney who was also drinking hot water, Noah couldn't remember what they wanted to do before.
"Noah, can you try to see if the power of the star pattern can open this door?"

After confirming that Noah's condition had stabilized, Courtene suggested.

After Noah had made sufficient preparations, he made the star pattern shine again.

However, when the green vines representing Noah's power touched the ancient door, nothing happened.

"If it's not the power of the star pattern, why was Tas sucked in?"

"Isn't it because of that weird thing he always holds in his hand?"

Noah, the only one in the bathing seminar who still insisted that the white disc was a magical voice transmission tool, guessed,

"Last time. The last time I came here with him, nothing happened."

"Is the white disk a 'key'? That's troublesome. Where can I find another weird thing like that?"

Courteney crossed her arms and thought for a while, then made a decision.

"Anyway, let's go back to the ground. We can't help much if we stay here. Besides, someone has to go back and tell us what happened here. By the way, let's see if we can find some help."

Although Noa was somewhat reluctant, she could sense that Courtrine was also worried about Ritas and Merci, and that it was actually very difficult for her to make such a decision.

"Just. Can we go up?"

Noah raised his head and asked worriedly as he looked at the passage that seemed to have no end.

"Don't worry! Although there are some problems with the control, I still have a lot of magic power. As for those vines blocking the road, I'll leave them to you."

"Um"

Looking at the mess not far away, they had been struggling for a long time just to drink a cup of hot water. Thinking of how Ritas could do anything with magic with ease, Noah, who truly felt that he was probably useless, nodded slightly.

While Noah and Courtene were discussing why Ritas was sucked in.

In the "World Tree Maze".

Ritas, who had finally recovered from his dizziness, looked at the white disk in front of him and sighed softly.

"So, why was Xiao Li sucked in this time? It wasn't because of me last time. Um, how about I apologize to you?"

"Rather than apologizing, I would like the Goddess of Bath to explain what the so-called 'World Tree Labyrinth' is all about." Wherever Ritas's eyes went, there was a silent space filled with a sense of desolation.

The most common things that can be seen in the space are yellow sand and huge stones that make up the ground and the walls on both sides of the passage.

On these stones, something similar to runes shone, and between the cracks in the stones also emitted a faint blue light. Therefore, the overall visibility of this space was not low.

"Well, even if you ask me, this is a very common, classic maze filled with various traps! Your understanding of 'maze' is different from mine. In your impression, the maze is even a living thing! So, can you give me a general idea? The outer perimeter of this 'World Tree Maze' is like an underground tomb."

When the goddess of baths mentioned the underground tomb, Ritas actually had some idea of what it was.

Compared to these, there was a word that caught Ritas's attention.

"The periphery? Where we are now, is it just the periphery?"

"Yes! According to the game, the outer perimeter of the World Tree Labyrinth is ten floors. After that, there is the 'Utopia of Returning to Dust', which has thirty floors. Finally, there is the 'World Tree', which has a total of fifty floors. Including the nine hidden rooms that can be entered with a special team, this second round of the hidden labyrinth has a total of ninety-nine floors."

"Ninety-nine floors."

Just hearing this number, Ritas couldn't help but feel a headache.

"If you think optimistically, there are obviously traces of design in the game, and the game producer of the second round of the game wants to add some playable content for players, so there is a ninety-nine-story tower for people to climb. Moreover, many floors are reused materials. So, in reality, there may not be ninety-nine floors. Or, in other words, the fact that you can come in itself means that the game content is 'for reference only'. After all, both the abandoned mansion and the world tree maze are places that can only be entered in the second round of the game."

Continuing to listen to the message from the Bathing Goddess, Ritas always felt that the frequent appearance of the "second round" recently was somewhat worrying.

Although, according to his current knowledge, the so-called new elements added in the second round of the game are actually there. However, players who are not free enough or are restricted cannot access those parts. Therefore, it is not surprising that he can access them since he is free enough and not restricted by anything.

"Then is there any way to get out of this maze?"

Ritas said this and turned back to look at the direction where he first appeared.

There was basically nothing there, just the unchanging sand, boulders and fluorescent lights all around.

"Well, you can get out by destroying all or reloading the game."

"."

"Tsk, you must be thinking 'if you can speak, then say more'. Well, there's no need to leave in a hurry. The rewards for clearing the World Tree Labyrinth are quite generous. After all, it's a difficult labyrinth that is only available in the second round. Leveling up here is very fast. Well, you don't need to level up. There are also some high-attribute titles that you can't use. What about the hidden professions required for job change? Hmm, I still can't use them. Xiaoli, do you want to be the 'keeper of the World Tree'?"

"Do not want to."

"Tsk, equipment, equipment can always be used! Even if it doesn't add any attributes when you wear it, you can still collect it as an antique, right?"

Listening to the words of the Bathing Goddess, which seemed to be trying to comfort him in his distress, Ritas sighed softly.

"Indeed. Besides, Ms. An might be here too. So, we can only explore a bit. After all, there is no way out for the time being."

"That's right, there's nothing to worry about. Xiao Li, maybe you can easily pass this maze. There are only some traps outside the maze. It's a war chess mode in the game so it's annoying, but it shouldn't be difficult to avoid in reality. As for the undead in the ancient capital, Xiao Li, you can purify them in groups. The fifty floors of the World Tree are actually more like a BOSSRUSH. However, now those BOSSes are basically alive and kicking except for the Dark Instrument Society, and they probably don't have the time to come here for a guest appearance."

The Bathing Goddess began to talk about the contents of the game.

However, facing the Bathing Goddess who was still very optimistic, Ritas did not say some things.

He stretched out his hand, made a few fist movements, and then his expression became extremely solemn.

Now, Ritas is somewhat accustomed to this feeling.

That is, the feeling that his magical ability was restricted.

Once upon a time, Levis Wind Chaser, known as the "Tree Witch", discovered a complete and huge alien space. Then, she occupied it without authorization and named it "Levis Realm". Moreover, through the connection between the alien space and the real world, and the difference in the laws of the two places, she further evolved the "Levis Teleportation Technique", which laid an extremely solid foundation for her to become one of the Four Sages in the future.

And now, the Tree Witch's disciple, Ritas Elson, realized that he had also discovered a "different space".

The interior of this alien space is not as violent and chaotic as the "Levi's World", and its scale should not be very large.

However, some of the laws in this different space are still different from those in the main world.

At this moment, the biggest difference that Ritas felt was that there were no magic particles in this space.

However, even though there are no natural magic particles in the "World Tree Labyrinth", Ritas can still use some magic.

The sign of becoming a qualified wizard is to "solidify" some magic particles around the body.

Temporarily summoned magic particles are full of instability. However, the solidified magic particles are often used by magicians as if they were part of their body.

And if Ritas has any flaws in magic.

That is, there are very few magic particles solidified around him. Moreover, his ability to summon magic particles is also very limited.

Magic particles have will and personality, and those solidified particles of Ritas are particularly unique.

They obeyed Ritas's requests and commands very well, just like completely domesticated slaves. The only thing was that they would actively drive away other magic particles that approached Ritas.

However, this degree of defect would not have any impact on Ritas, who was previously just a researcher or artist.

Only after the frequent encounters with battles since last semester did Ritas feel a little overwhelmed. However, he soon found a way to make up for it.

Use someone else's.

If he couldn't summon the magic himself, he would use magic particles summoned by others, or summoned through magic circles, magic tools and other auxiliary items.

In short, as long as there are magic particles floating around in the normal world, he can always think of some way to make up for the lack of "quantity".

But in this strange space where there are no natural magic particles, Ritas's "blue bar" was locked at a very low number.

Even if he told the goddess of bathing about his condition, it would only increase her anxiety and guilt, making her even more nervous. So, Ritas chose to conceal it for the time being.

Ritas wanted to say something like "I have spent most of my life practicing magic, how dare you forbid me to use magic?"

But last time he could still say this to the "Corpse Disaster" and get angry. This time, the rules of the entire alien space forbid the use of magic, and he didn't know who to complain to.

If we are optimistic, at least there are still some solidified magic particles to maintain the magic book pages.
After calming down his complicated emotions, Ritas turned his gaze to Merci, who had not woken up after entering the alien space.

Looking back, Ritas suddenly felt that if he let go of the white disc and let it enter the door alone, he might never be able to get it back. That's why he stubbornly didn't let go.

So what was Merci, who also insisted on not letting go, thinking at that time?
Did you have the same premonition as him?
If so.

It's a bit troublesome
