Exchange of Super Magic Shield

Chapter 078 The Missing Two

The Star Alchemy Contest is still going on. As the competition time goes on day after day, with Liu Zhe's strong strength as a first-level alchemist, there is no suspense that he will continue to advance to the next competition, and no exam questions can hinder him. .

After the top 64, the top 32...the top sixteen...the top eight...until the current top four!

In a total of four games, Liu Zhe easily won the No. 1 score. Of course, today, there is no one in the entire Alchemy City who does not know Liu Zhe, and his reputation is even far higher than that of the home team. Qian Yu and Hagens.

At the same time, in these four games, Liu Zhe finally got the third-level gems of Day Si Yemeng. In the four games, he got a total of five second-level gems and six third-level gems!For Liu Zhe today, this is undoubtedly a huge fortune!

It's just... With such wealth, Liu Zhe is frowning now, with a depressed face, and it seems that there is no joy in his heart.

Alchemy City, Sunny Court, Central Courtyard.

"What..." In the courtyard??, Liu Zhe let out a tongue-twisting sound, and kept walking around in a depressed mood. Seeing his searching eyes, he seemed to be waiting for something.

Seeing Liu Zhe's eager expression, Princess Mana stood up and walked to his side, saying: "Mr. Liu Zhe, Rex and the others will definitely be fine, please sit down first."

"But they've been missing for several days!! If they didn't come out..." Liu Zhe roared, and just halfway through his words, his tone froze, and then he whispered: "Sorry, I'm too excited gone."

Today is the eighth day since the start of the Star Alchemy Competition, and tomorrow is the final final. Even if Rex and Charlotte's speed is a bit slower, it is impossible to spend so long!

On the fifth day of the competition, Liu Zhe felt a little uneasy in his heart. On the sixth day, Irene told herself: "Rex and the others are no longer in Tianyou College. According to the old man Taicheng, the two of them Our departure is only two days late, which means they have left Tianyou Academy for at least ten days.”

While talking, Irene was also frowning. With the help of the teleportation magic circle, even if they came to the Alchemy City from the Lieyang Empire, it would take at most five or six days. However, it took the two of them ten Sky hasn't seen anyone yet, so it's obvious that something happened.

Finally, Erin also felt that something was wrong.

"You should concentrate on the competition for my mother. I will investigate this matter, and there will be news in two days at the earliest. ??" On the same day, Irene left such a sentence, which meant she left the Alchemy City.

Seeing Irene set off in person, Liu Zhe was relieved a lot. After all, among the people he knew, except for Qian Changjun and Chief Doug, no one else could match Irene's strength.

One day, two days... Today is the second day in Irene's mouth. I saw that Liu Zhe returned to the Sunny Court as soon as the game was over, but it was almost dusk, and he hadn't seen Irene yet. Therefore, there is this scene in front of him.

"Woooo..." It seemed to be affected by Liu Zhe's emotions, and Heidi beside her was also tearful, almost crying out of anxiety.

Another hour passed after the uncomfortable time. At this time, the sky had completely darkened, but Liu Zhe was still waiting, and Heidi and Princess Mana were also by his side.

Looking at the darkening sky, Princess Mana couldn't help saying again: "Mr. Liu Zhe, tomorrow is the final, isn't it time for you to recharge your batteries? Please go back to your room and rest first."

It wasn't until Princess Mana spoke again that Liu Zhe noticed the two people who had been by his side all the time. Immediately, a trace of guilt flashed through his eyes, and he said, "I'm not too tired, you and Heidi should go back first." Don't worry, I will wait for another two hours at most, if Master Irene hasn't come back after two hours, I will go back to my room to rest."

Princess Mana continued: "No, leave the waiting work to me. If I see Dean Irene, I will notify you as soon as possible, so please go back to your room and rest."

Liu Zhe said in a daze, "How embarrassing."

"No, don't forget that I am your maid. Although you don't usually give orders, these things are my job."

"..." Liu Zhe remained silent. According to his experience, even if he refuted at this time, Princess Mana would definitely not listen.

Liu Zhe and Princess Mana stared at each other in silence, at this moment, suddenly, Irene's voice came from above her head, saying: "Don't make a noise, my mother has already returned."

"Master Irene!" Upon hearing this familiar voice, Liu Zhe was overjoyed, and immediately looked up to the sky, only to see Irene's figure slowly descending.

In the blink of an eye, Irene landed in front of Liu Zhe smoothly. Immediately, Liu Zhe hurriedly asked: "Master Irene, have you found Rex and the others?"

Seeing Liu Zhe approaching in a hurry, Irene pushed him out with disgust, and said at the same time: "Don't worry, before this, I didn't lose the game, right?"

"Tomorrow is the final." Liu Zhe nodded and replied immediately.

"Well, not bad." Irene patted Liu Zhe on the shoulder with satisfaction, and then her expression suddenly turned serious, and she said seriously: "I have checked all the cities near Alchemy City... According to my investigation, the two of them People really started from Flame City."

Jincai Empire, Yanguang City, Liu Zhe and others started from Yanguang City, and finally came to Alchemy City.

"Flame City..." Liu Zhe murmured, and then asked: "Then where are they now?"

After hearing what Liu Zhe said, Irene's expression suddenly became serious, and she said in a deep voice: "Ten days ago, the two of them went to Alchemy City with a caravan. According to the itinerary, this caravan left It will arrive at the Alchemy City... I just checked on the way, and this caravan has indeed left the Flame City, but it has not yet reached the Alchemy City, which means... it is missing."

"Missing..." Liu Zhe looked stunned. He disappeared in the wilderness. Caravans with many years of traveling experience naturally couldn't get lost, that is to say, they must have encountered something other than getting lost.

And in the wilderness, can a caravan disappear... Maybe it was a monster attack, or it was robbed by bandits?

No matter what the situation is, it is not good news for Liu Zhe. Now that he has lost Melissa, if even Rex and Charlotte are dead, he will probably go crazy on the spot. After all, Melissa still has a chance to be resurrected, but if Rex and Charlotte die somewhere they don't know, they can't be resurrected!

Seeing Liu Zhe's pale face, Irene hesitated for a while, and then said: "Don't worry too much, both of them are core students of Tianyou College, so old man Taicheng has already marked them, although they can't be traced. location, but at least they can be sure of their life and death, if they die, old man Taicheng will know immediately, so now they are still alive and well, just missing."

"It's still alive...that's great." Hearing this, Liu Zhe breathed a sigh of relief and didn't doubt Irene's statement at all. On the one hand, Irene is indeed a credible person, and on the other hand, Liu Zhe is Willing to believe that Rex and Charlotte are dead.

Human beings always subconsciously believe in facts that are beneficial to them.

Seeing that Liu Zhe believed in her words, Irene's expression was heavy, and a sense of guilt rose in her heart.

In fact, according to what she learned from Taicheng, Charlotte is indeed still alive, but Rex's life reaction is...

Irene knew about this matter two days ago, but in order to avoid affecting Liu Zhe's emotions during the game, she kept it secret. She knew very well the relationship between Liu Zhe and Rex, which was the As close as a biological brother, if Liu Zhe knew that Rex was dead, it would be no wonder if he didn't go crazy on the spot.

Of course, when she found out that Rex was dead, Irene was also angry, but she was able to control her emotions well, otherwise, I'm afraid the whole city would be destroyed by her in a fit of anger destroy.

After confirming that Rex and Charlotte were still alive, Liu Zhe breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time urgently said: "Although they are still alive, it doesn't mean that their situation is safe. I..."

Before Liu Zhe finished speaking, Irene interrupted: "Wait, you won't tell me that you want to go to them now, will you? What about tomorrow's final?"

"..." Liu Zhe was silent. The final is certainly important to his future, but Liu Zhe only has a few friends and brothers in this world!

If one had to choose between the two, Liu Zhe would give up the final without hesitation. Even though it was only for one day, Liu Zhe also wanted to find them as soon as possible, so that he could truly feel at ease.

Irene's tone cannot be questioned: "You can only leave after the finals tomorrow, otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of time for me to cover you for so long? Besides, for your future achievements, you must win the championship in this competition. Don't think The semi-finals are almost the same as the championship, the word champion, it will be of great help to you.”

Seeing that Irene actually stopped him, Liu Zhe glared at her and said, "I don't care, as long as Rex and the others are fine, the champion, the final four... I don't need any of these, anyway, even if I abstain this time, I can still Participate in the next competition, but the brother is gone, the friend is gone, can I find the same one again?"

Hearing this, Irene was stunned. Indeed, she had forgotten that Liu Zhe was only 19 years old this year. Even if he gave up this year's Star Alchemy Competition, he can still participate in the next one, or even the next one. !

However, Irene did not let go because of this, and still said: "There is no discussion, you can leave only after tomorrow's game is over, instead, I will leave now to find Rex and Charlotte for you. Right? Or do you think you can find people faster than me? In fact, I have asked some people I know to help find people. Now there is no difference between one more you and one less you, let alone only one day , what can you do?"

"Master Irene..." Liu Zhe was stunned. He wanted to get angry at Irene, but he didn't expect that she had done so much for him. Thinking of this, Liu Zhe couldn't help feeling ashamed.

Irene frowned and said, "Don't look at me with such disgusting eyes, it's getting dark, the brat should go back to the room and sleep, don't think about anything."

"..." Liu Zhe was silent for a while, Irene had already said this, if he still didn't listen to her advice, wouldn't he be too ignorant?

Besides, as Irene said, Liu Zhe didn't think that he could find someone faster than her. It must be the best choice to let Irene replace him.

Not long after, Liu Zhe took a deep look at Irene, and then thanked: "Thank you, then I will leave it to you." After finishing speaking, Liu Zhe turned his head directly and returned to the room with Heidi and Princess Mana.

It wasn't until Liu Zhe's back disappeared from sight that Irene let out a long sigh, and said in her heart: "The thing about Boy Rex...how can I confess to him?"
