Albert College

Jieyu's belly is definitely not a good place to go, especially when there are a group of vicious unknown monsters having a happy party here.

Even Nishizawa felt an irresistible unease at this moment. The deep-rooted fear seemed to have been engraved into genetics millions of years ago. of intense malice.

These black shadows are alive, they are silently gnawing at the enchantment, their movements are slow but unquestionable, they greedily climb up little by little, cheering for the tribute that is about to be offered, so hungry and cruel, so let People are creepy.

"The monster in the monster's stomach, the symbiosis system." Ebner moved closer: "It seems that the previously estimated time needs to be halved."

"In my opinion, it's more like parasitism, which can explain the thinness of the world fish." Ebner's action dispelled some of Caesar's anxiety, he glanced at the silver-haired elf, and then replied absent-mindedly.

"Of course, we can spend two or three days studying this weird creature carefully, and then you can write a related paper or something. After our interesting trip is over, you can hand it in, and then I will give you A fair grade A." Ebner replied leisurely.

"...Thank you for your sense of humor. If it weren't for this situation, I would have smiled." Caesar said through gritted teeth.

Ebner showed a calm smile: "You don't need to be so nervous, since I brought you here, I won't let you die."

Caesar stared at him suspiciously.

Ebner made a gesture of surrender, and added: "Okay, I admit that maybe I will lose some arms, legs or something."

Caesar: "...I'm glad I never counted on you."

"Actually, you can count on it." Ebner suddenly stretched out his hand towards Caesar without warning, a little black liquid substance seeped into the barrier, and it was about to drip onto Caesar's shoulder, but now it landed In the palm of his hand, the thing was like a disgusting locust, firmly attached to the flesh, and immediately began to burrow into it.

Ebner pulled that thing out, and sealed it into the ring.Although the action was timely, his palm was bitten out a big hole, and blood gushed out, looking very serious.

Caesar stared blankly at his movements, and even forgot to dodge those black things.

He never relied on anyone, and the price of weakness and gullibility was heavy.No matter who you are, as long as you have the heart, you can pretend to be a good person, because it will do you no harm, but at this time, almost everyone will choose to protect themselves and abandon others, because in the final analysis, kindness is just a luxury. .In times of famine, who would buy jewelry and antiques that seem expensive but insignificant?

Undoubtedly, Ebner could completely ignore him before, even if Caesar used him as a shield, he wouldn't find it a bit strange.He's seen too many things like this...

Ebner tore off the wide sleeve, tied it on his hand as a bandage, and took a light breath because of the pain from his rough and unprofessional movements.

Caesar came to his senses, opened his mouth, but still swallowed what he wanted to say - in fact, he didn't know what he wanted to say.

He looked around quickly as if to cover up, making sure that there were no other dangerous things running in, and then he spoke again, but the speed of his speech was much faster: "We must find a way to get out as soon as possible, we won't last long here. There are Two problems need to be solved, how to break the belly of the opener fish, and how to get out of the underworld."

"I think these two things can be resolved together." Ebner straightened his body, checked his physical condition, and said, "Except for the world fish, there is nothing that can get us out of the underworld."

"The Jieyu is not our little pet."

"But we still have a way of controlling it. Remember my sword?"

Everything, including power, has its own attributes, which are divided into two types: light and darkness, and below are subdivided into five types: wind, wood, water, fire, and earth, which can restrain and influence each other.

"You want to stimulate the world fish with the bright breath on the sword?" Caesar recalled the sharp and pure silver sword, and immediately objected: "How can you be sure that it will swim to the human world instead of the depths of the underworld?"

"I can be sure..." Ebner hesitated for a moment, but finally continued: "There is something in the academy, it can summon all dark creatures, and it has been artificially strengthened recently. Jieyu can't refuse this trend." Breath, in fact, even if there is no stimulation from us, it is still trying to enter the academy. The places attacked by it will be relatively fragile for a short time, so ghosts and the like will come in through the barrier .”

College stuff?

Doubts flashed by, but Caesar didn't intend to get entangled in it, because obviously Ebner didn't want to say more.

"But the Jieyu failed to break through the barrier, its size is too large." Nishizawa asked.

"So we have to seize the moment and get out of its mouth when it breaks through the space. As an elf, I have very good perception skills and should be able to do this."

"Since you have made up your mind," Caesar replied, "Then you'd better hurry up, another shadow has leaked in."

The enchantment was much thinner than before, and faintly glowed weakly. Strands of black shadows scrambled to get in, eagerly pounced on the two unlucky prey.

Ebner narrowed his eyes slightly, and then pulled Caesar into his arms.Caesar was stunned for a moment, and immediately planned to struggle, but Ebner pushed his head back mercilessly: "Don't move, this thing likes flesh and blood, and humans will be eaten up in one go, but the elves can hold on anyway." For a while. I think your flexibility is not good enough to dodge all the attacks in such a small space."

"Pull out my sword." He ordered, and then swung an approaching black figure back with a wave of his hand. There was a terrifying gash on his arm immediately, and the smell of blood made those creatures even more excited.

Caesar smelled the bloody smell, his expression was tense but he didn't say anything. He stretched out his hand to reach the hilt of the sword, and then pulled it out, but the blade didn't emit the dazzling silver light like before. was suppressed.

Without any hesitation, Caesar grabbed Ebner's sleeve and dripped all the blood he had just shed onto the sword, and it seemed that he was planning to use another sword to make the blood flow more smoothly.

"Hey." Ebner protested.

"Elves are a race favored by light, your blood will be useful." Caesar insisted.

"...Okay." Ebner stretched out his other hand depressedly: "There is still a wound here, the blood has not had time to coagulate, don't waste it."

The blood flowed along the edge of the sword, the eye-catching red contrasted sharply with the dazzling silver.Soon Caesar discovered that the bright breath was much stronger, and even those dark shadows were forced back a lot.

Caesar silently breathed a sigh of relief, but the space under their feet began to vibrate at this moment. Jieyu sensed the change in his stomach, and it thrashed and struggled vigorously, trying to get rid of this uncomfortable feeling.

Ebner took the sword from Caesar's hand and stabbed it fiercely into Jieyu's stomach wall. The poor big guy screamed and rolled like crazy, but Ebner held Caesar with one hand, and with the help of that The focus point stays firmly in place.

"Close to the academy will make it feel better, and it's started to move." Ebner's expression was unusually serious, and he looked very reliable at the moment: "I jumped out immediately after I slit its throat."

This was their only chance, and those black shadows began to stir up trouble and tried to counterattack. Once they failed, it might be too late to implement the plan a second time.

Caesar was engrossed in waiting for the moment of escape, he didn't even realize that he trusted Ebner so much at this moment, he didn't think that the elf might get the timing wrong, or fail to slit the throat accurately.

Jieyu rushed forward all the way, like a carriage out of control, but the two people in the carriage firmly believed that it could reach the destination accurately.

After making a sharp turn, Ebner suddenly drew out his sword.Caesar could feel the chill swept by the sword energy.A bright light appeared in front of him, it was not an illusion, those black shadows rushed up again, but Caesar didn't even look at them, he rushed towards the light recklessly.

A moment later, he sat on the sun-drenched withered yellow grass, his heart was pounding, and his whole body ached.Beside him, Ebner stood up unsteadily.Jieyu was gone, probably even if it was an ancient beast, its throat was cut and it didn't have the energy to trouble them again.

"It looks like we're not far from where we started." Caesar said, "Where's your sword?"

"Accidentally left in Jieyu's stomach." Ebner was covered in injuries, his clothes were stained with blood, but his smile was still as elegant as attending a reception, and he said lightly in a nonchalant manner: "It's a heavy loss this time, but since I stole the sword, the old guys should know that they can't get it back. They have always been very aware of this."

···What awareness?Do you condone your prodigal consciousness?After escaping the catastrophe, I felt that this guy was quite pleasing to the eye, but it was probably just a wonderful illusion.

Caesar decided to ignore the question, it was none of his business anyway.He stood up too, and was surprised to find that he wasn't hurt too badly.

"What are you going to do next?" Caesar asked.

"Look for other clues." Ebner replied, "It is certain that things are changing. That thing is more dangerous than I imagined."

Caesar's gaze turned to Ebner's ring, the sapphire on it had not had time to shatter.

"There is something I think I should tell you." He was silent for a while, and then said: "Kafir also had a similar ring before."
