Chapter 54: Explosives Expert, Fighting Boy

Helia's hands were wrapped with some strips of cloth torn by Drummond. Although it still hurt, at least she wouldn't be so sweaty that she couldn't hold the wand.

The stairs leading up had collapsed long ago, so they had to find another way, looking for higher arched rocks and climbing up.

Why can't I fly up? Of course I can't!

Flying magic can only be learned and used after obtaining a pilot's license issued by the Magic Association. People like Helia, who have not even passed the first-level magician assessment, have certainly never learned it.

It is also said that the certification of a pilot's license is very difficult and complicated. In the entire Carter College, there are only a dozen people who have a pilot's license, and there are nearly a hundred teachers in the college alone. Among the students, no matter how talented or genius someone is, no one has obtained a pilot's license while at school.

Even Mobichues didn't have it, but according to his excuse, oh no, explanation, he said it was too troublesome and he didn't want to take the exam, he was too lazy to take it. But Helia knew it clearly, it wasn't that he didn't want to take the exam, he definitely couldn't pass it.

It was not until now that Helia realized how huge this relic was. When she was in the main hall, she felt that it was too big to be used by humans. However, the winged people they had seen before were mostly of normal size. Except for their larger wings, they were not so tall that they needed a door nearly three meters high.

Only Adalasis, as the god of the sky, not only has twelve wings, but also has a body as big as a giant. If he needs to go in and out of this temple frequently, it is reasonable to build it so big.

Could it be that this place was the bedroom where Adalesi lived?

Using magic to move the rocks blocking the road and clear a relatively flat path, Drummond noticed with his sharp eyes that there seemed to be magical patterns carved on the cracked and raised floor.

He moved the two stone slabs together and tried to put them together, but failed. But even if they failed to put them together, they could see that there was once a very large and complex magic circle drawn on them.

"I don't understand, next one." Helia gave up after just one glance. After the last lesson, she didn't want to look closely at the messages left by these gods, nor did she dare to think about them too much, for fear of offending Him and then being hated by the petty-minded gods.

Drummond had no intention of delving into this further, and the two continued to move forward until they felt a strong fluctuation of magical power. They were very familiar with this magic, and they turned their heads to look at each other at the same time in tacit understanding.

It's Britney!

They followed the source of the magic power and finally found Britney fighting with the black magician in the middle of a circle surrounded by many side halls and the main hall on the underground floor. Beavis assisted her and Karlze was protected by him behind her.

The three of them looked particularly embarrassed. Britney was fighting hard against four of them alone, and there were several bodies of fallen winged men and black magicians around her. It seemed that Britney was using all her strength.

The timely appearance of Helia and Drummond turned the tide of the battle. The fire mage's first attack with explosive magic directly killed the black mage who was hiding in the dark to interfere. Drummond followed closely behind and froze another black mage who was about to pounce. Helia quickly cast eight layers of magic array within three seconds of the opponent's immobilization, raised her hand and fired another shot, and the man flew out with his stiff body burned to charcoal.

When Karzer heard the noise, he looked over and saw that it was Helia and Drummond. He was so excited that his eyes turned red and he was about to cry. Fortunately, although he was more emotional, he still had the upper hand in such a fierce battle. He saw at a glance that Helia and the others were injured, and gathered up the little magic power he had left, and cast healing magic on the two of them.

"Okay!" Helia's tired body suddenly felt much lighter, and the hand holding the wand didn't hurt so much anymore. She ran quickly, dodging left and right, attacking whenever she got the chance, and struggling with the remaining two dark magicians.

Helia was forced to practice with Mobichues and Vikes every day. She would go out in the morning in a glamorous way and come back in the evening covered in dust. This was Helia's daily routine at school.

And because Helia herself had a high talent for magic, Mobichues's requirements for her were much higher than those for others. If there was anything she didn't do well, for example, when fighting against Vikes, she always gave up defense when attacking because of habit, and was "killed" by Vikes several times, he would target this point and let Helia keep getting beaten until she changed her bad habit.

Helia was not well-rounded in magic studies, but specialized in combat, just like Britney specialized in defensive magic. However, while others specialized in one thing, they did not neglect other things. However, Helia only added martial arts when allocating points, which made her the most biased student in the entire academy.

Her fire attribute destined her to embark on the path of combat, but due to her poor health, she will always be weaker than others, and this is exactly what Mobicius is targeting. He will help Helia little by little, break through the limits of her body under the premise of high-intensity training, and also consciously cultivate her combat awareness.

If you can't match others in physical fitness and endurance, then find a way to win with one strike, so that others won't even have a chance to compete with you in endurance.

Even though she had only studied with Mobicius for less than half a year, Helia was already a qualified fighter.

With Britney's protection and the assistance of others, Helia took care of the remaining two black magicians without much effort. Here I have to give a prize to the explosive magic.

"We thought you were buried, so we planned to dig you out after we dealt with the enemies here." Beavis said with a smile. Seeing that Helia and the other two were safe, he was finally relieved.

"I almost died, but luckily I'm lucky enough to have a long life. How about you guys? Are you okay?" Helia said this while looking at Karl Ze. Healing magicians are most likely to be targeted and killed instantly in a battle, not to mention that he doesn't have much magic power left. If he encounters an enemy, he will be chopped up like a dish.

"We're fine, Britney is... very strong..." Beavis's face looked a little unnatural. He must have seen something that shocked him. He looked at Britney with inquiry, and the vague idea in his mind seemed to be taking shape.

"Well, if you meet someone you can't beat, just hide behind her." Helia was very good at finding work for Britney. She took Karlzer's hand and transferred some magic power to him. Even though she had used several explosive magics with eight layers of magic arrays in the battle and opened a domain, according to the current magic power of a normal person, it would have been drained dry long ago. However, Helia not only had some left, but she could also share it with Karlzer, directly replenishing his magic power.

Karl felt the magic power filling his body, rubbed his nose a little embarrassedly, and asked curiously: "Captain, is your magic power too abundant?"

He discovered very early on that Helia's magic power seemed to be extraordinary. Everyone's training grounds were next to each other. Every day during class, if you heard frequent explosions, it must be the training ground where Helia was. She was also called the blasting expert by everyone in private.

Especially the training ground where Karzer is, because most of the people there are healing magicians, or magicians specializing in defense, anyway, their attack power is not high, so among all the training grounds, theirs is the only one that is best preserved.

As for Helia... her family is rich, so if it breaks, we can just fix it. Anyway, we can just send the bill to His Majesty Claude when the time comes.

When she occasionally trained with the captain, Helia would always try her best. After the training, everyone was exhausted and gasping for breath, their hands and feet weak due to the depletion of magic power. But although Helia was also tired, she was tired from running, so she still had a lot of magic power left.

Upon hearing this, Beavis looked at Helia in confusion. Indeed, from the first time he saw Helia, he felt that this girl was too strong. She had acquired a domain within less than half a year of entering school, and her combat power was even more astonishing. Could this be the advantage of being a descendant of the elves?

No... Beavis doubted Helia's true identity. If she was just an ordinary elf, how could she touch the child of the great elder of the Magic Association? Her true identity must be very noble, so that even Dean Phillip had to give her face...

His gaze moved back and forth between Britney and Helia, as if he had sensed the secret connection between the two of them. His eyes gradually widened, and finally he looked at Helia in surprise, and the guess in his mind finally took shape.

Helia was unable to give an answer to Kalzer's question. She had asked many people about this matter, but everyone seemed to think that it was due to the good talents inherited from her mother Madeline. After all, Madeline was one of the most famous figures in the magic world before marrying into the royal family. There was no reason why her daughter would be bad.

But Helia didn't think so. If it was really inherited by Madeline, then why couldn't Eric? Is there still a rule that it can only be passed down to girls but not boys?

Helia felt that this might be related to the truth of why she traveled through time and space to this body, but unfortunately no one was willing to tell her about her mother, and she had no way of knowing what was going on with this body of hers.

"I don't know, maybe it's because I'm a genius?" Helia shrugged, pretending to be serious.

"Beleyi, you..." Beavis wanted to ask more, but realized that this was not a good place to talk about these things. They have not escaped the pursuit yet, so they should wait until they return to school to confirm it.

"Me what? You want to praise me? Then praise me as much as you can, I can handle it." Helia put her hands on her hips, straightened her chest, and raised her head proudly. She was really worthy of her, she could maintain her narcissistic character wherever she went.

"Let's go first and find a place to hide." Britney grabbed Helia's arm and led people in a certain direction. She looked very unhappy and no one knew what had just happened to make her feel so difficult.

They lacked food, so they had to go back to the ground. The ruins had been destroyed beyond recognition, but if the academy paid attention and sent someone to investigate, they would definitely be able to find some clues.

For some reason, Helia felt very uneasy. Looking at the sky that was so far away from her, she suddenly felt that she might never leave here.

"There is a great believer who is very difficult to deal with. He is at the eighth level and specializes in combat. We will definitely die if we meet him head-on." Britney leaned close to Helia's ear and whispered, "If we really meet him, I will release the domain immediately and you take your people to hide inside. Do you understand?"

"We hid in there, so what will you do?" Helia asked back.

When the field is used to protect people, and others hide in it, Britney can only fight alone outside. On the contrary, if the enemy is pulled into the field, not only can the home advantage be utilized, but others can also help.

Of course, Britney could also pull everyone in, but when the field attacks, it doesn't distinguish between friend and foe, and it's easy to hurt friendly forces by mistake.

Britney was silent for a moment, then said coldly: "Don't worry about it. My biggest mission here is to protect your safety. If you die here, then there is no value for me to continue living."

Without waiting for Helia to say anything, she said firmly, "I am a great magician who specializes in defense. I will not allow anyone to narrowly escape death twice under my protection, and I will not allow you to die in front of me. This is an insult to me."

"It's an insult to the magic that I've been pursuing all my life, it's an insult to my ideals and beliefs, and it's an insult to the reputation that I've built up over most of my life."

"It's a betrayal of my best friend."

"So, you must not die. Absolutely not."

Britney's uncharacteristic seriousness and determination left Helia speechless. Perhaps it was at this moment that she realized that the weight of several lives had already been placed on her shoulders. Too many people came for her, but she was incapable of shouldering this heavy burden.

Helia rubbed her face. The cloth strips tied to her hands had not been removed yet, and her face turned red. She sobered up a little and asked, "What do you mean by great believer?"
