From Hogwarts to Strixhaven.

Chapter 368: The Devil Titan

Under the influence of the Dragon Spell of Creation, Ivy was able to connect very smoothly with the Strijhaven Magic Vortex in the Holy Oracle Hall.

This spell was used to integrate the effects of the prayer spell, so after Ivy and Moxuan completed the connection, he immediately sensed the magical channels throughout the school.

Teleportation arrays of all sizes draw energy from the Strixhaven Magic Vortex, and the power source of the golems active on campus can also be traced back to the Strixhaven Magic Vortex.

Ivy felt that his consciousness was with them. Not only could he change the landing point of any teleportation array, he could even make subtle adjustments to the operation of the golem.

Through the eyes of the golems spread across all the campuses of Strixhaven, Ivy once again observed this magic university from a very peculiar perspective.

He saw the drama students setting up props on the Rose Stage, the tree man practicing water ballet in the school swimming pool (it would never sink to the bottom of the water), and Fortress hiding in the training ground, familiarizing himself with the giant sword behind him.

This wonderful perspective made Ivy want to play a prank, so he manipulated the gear library clerk who was registering books in Maodian Pavilion to do a tap dance as if no one was around.

"It's a wonderful view, isn't it?" Ogeta's voice came dimly from a distance, and Ivy pulled his consciousness out of the Strijhaven magic vortex.

"I can't express my shock in words. It is connected with all the magic of Strijhaven... This is a path I never imagined." Ivy sighed with satisfaction and returned the Strijhaven spell in his hand to Ogeta, "That's enough... I have felt the heart of Strijhaven."

"What did you do with it?" Ogeta said with a mischievous smile, "No one can resist this temptation. Nasari doubled the intensity of the sun's light, and finally burned a large area of lawn in the vaulted commons. The gardener golem almost skinned him. The scene is still fresh in people's memory, so now he brings it up from time to time."

"I asked the gear library administrator in Maodian Pavilion to do a dance." Ivy shrugged. "Maybe a few students saw it."

"Don't worry, you have already restrained yourself." Ogeta used some magic to close the spell that was originally spread out like petals and disappeared in the blink of an eye. "Let's leave here. I believe you need to find a quiet place as soon as possible to review your experience today. In fact, almost all people who are connected to the Strijhaven magic vortex have similar ideas. You can use the teleportation array on the first floor, which will be very convenient."

"of course."

Ivy really needed a quiet place to sort out his thoughts, but it was not for his experience in Strixhaven, but for the professional characteristics of the [Realm Explorer].

The process of coordinating with the Strixhaven magic vortex finally allowed Ivy's [Plane Harmony] to come in handy.

Akaivivo's harmony effect is called [Harmonious Opposition]. The effect is that Ivy can be in two opposing [Elemental Invocation] at the same time, and can complete the effect switching of [Elemental Invocation] in a very short time without having to wait until the beginning of a new day.

The four [Elemental Invocations] are in opposition to each other according to the combination of "Water and Fire" and "Air and Earth", and enjoying the immunity to damage from two opposing elements at the same time will bring great confusion to Ivy's enemies. Because according to common sense, when one element of damage is ineffective, switching to the opposite element of damage can bring outstanding results.

Not to mention that Ivy can switch back and forth between two combinations of elemental immunity.

[Plane Harmony] is a professional feature that can be improved as the number of worlds Ivy has visited increases. It is a typical type that becomes stronger in the later stages.

If the harmony effects that Ivy obtains later are not much different in strength from Akaivivo's [Harmonious Opposition], it is almost equivalent to giving an extra feat every three levels.

The growth potential of the legendary profession is so terrifying, not to mention the legendary spellcasting ability brought by the [Realm Explorer].

----

While Ivy was in the basement, studying the advanced application of the prayer technique that he had seen in the Holy Oracle Hall before, Mogasso's action began.

His magic ritual officially began, and the construct that Ivy left behind as a "reconnaissance guard" also completed its mission. It helped Ivy detect a huge black mana fluctuation, which seemed to be when Mogasso started his ritual.

After activating the magic on the Nemesis Squad badge, Ivy, Anbosi, the Dark Cinema Director, and Valentine, the Bloodline Dean, stood outside the gate of Mihua Academy.

From here they will be teleported directly to the entrance of the ruins of Sedern to complete the raid on Mogasso.

"We'll set off as soon as our nemesis arrives." Ivy looked at the two humans and vampires wrapped in black robes in front of him and gave a brief introduction.

The two deans were not familiar with Ivy. This was only their second meeting, and they did not seem to want to greet Ivy, so Ivy did not say anything more. Instead, he stared at the teaching building of Mihua College, a giant tree growing out of the swamp. It looked like a banyan tree or a mangrove on Earth, with countless aerial roots hanging from the branches forming a curtain.

The professors and students of Mihua weave these aerial roots into paths that shuttle between classrooms, and use many luminous fungi and flying insects for lighting. Mihua College is the place where golems are least likely to be seen, and they prefer various insects and beasts that are cultivated in a targeted manner.

Ivy didn't imagine many applications for necromancy, at least there weren't hordes of skeletons and corpses here. From what he had learned over the past few months, the students at Mihua Academy were better at extracting life essence and magic from living things. They would reuse this vitality and magic to produce vines and annoying flying insects that could spread diseases to complete attack and defense.

Orthodox necromancy has become a niche subject here, with only a handful of people still practicing it.

While thinking, Ivy realized that someone had completed the preparations and took the initiative to activate the teleportation spell that Ivy left on the badge.

The light blue mist condensed and dispersed, and a figure stood in front of Ivy. It was Aurora, the half-vampire from Mihua Academy.

"Using teleportation magic to get me from Mi Hua's dormitory to the gate?" Aurora was very familiar with the surrounding scenery. It took her less than a second to figure out her location. "I thought we would arrive directly at the ruins of Se Dun."

"That was indeed the original plan," Ivy explained simply, "but two deans are going to join our team, so the plan has changed temporarily."

"I'm so glad that your talent has been noticed by Professor Doom, Aurora." The vampire said to the half-vampire.

Aurora took a breath, "Dean Valentine?"

The vampire gave a hoarse laugh, confirming Aurora's discovery, and then she turned around and saw another dean from Yinhao Academy.

"Dean Ambers?"

Ambers didn't say anything, but nodded coldly. "Since two deans have already participated in this operation, why do we still need to do anything?" Aurora looked at Ivy with suspicion, "You clearly said before that their spells were all blocked by Mogasso."

"I lied." Ivy admitted openly, "If I didn't say that, how could you have enough motivation to prepare to fight such a strong enemy?"

"Liar." Aurora rolled her eyes and was about to turn and leave.

"I never said you could leave." Ivy's voice stopped the half-vampire in his tracks. "I'll explain in detail once everyone is here."

Aurora glanced at the corner of the vampire dean's mouth hidden under the shadow of the hood and stood there in compromise.

The scheduled time has arrived, and four other teleportation arrays have appeared one after another around Ivy.

The fully armed Nemesis team was officially assembled, and even Kemina walked out from a cloud of scattered feathers.

"Dean Ambers!" Grayson took two steps back and almost stepped on Fortress's foot. Fortunately, the elephant's big belly that protruded from his body stopped him.

"Very good, everyone is here." Ivy ignored the whispers among the five students. "We are about to set off for the Seidun Ruins. Before that, I have some new information to share with you."

"In short, you can regard this trip to the ruins of Seidun as your final exam, and the two deans are the invigilators. Mogasso's magic is not as effective as he claims, but he is still a deadly threat to you, so don't be careless or take any chances."

"The four faculty members present will ensure that there are no casualties in this exam, but this also means that some people may fail. For you, failing to complete the final exam may be no different from death, especially for some of you who have many social connections in Strixhaven."

Grayson swallowed sharply, loud enough to attract the attention of his Dean.

"You have been preparing for this for a while, and it's time to show your achievements." Ivy looked at the expressions on the faces of the five nemesis, and then said without emotion, "Your only goal is to defeat Mogasso and end the effects of his spell. Does anyone have any questions?"

"If... I'm just making an analogy, what if we fail to achieve this goal..." The Minotaur raised a hand and said cautiously.

"I will make sure this goal is accomplished," Ivy's voice was always steady, which fully demonstrated his confidence, "but I'm afraid you will have to stay in Strixhaven for another level."

The five students looked at each other and could only accept this explanation.

"We have no way out now!" Grayson just gathered with his friends and shouted in a low voice, "Damn it! How could this happen!"

"Don't worry," Bastion consoled him, "We entered this operation with the belief that we would win. Now we have one more reason to defeat Mogasso."

"I'll be so nervous!" Ruth's voice was piercing. "There are two deans watching us! If we fail, will Dean Valentine sink his fangs into my neck?"

"Don't worry," Aurora consoled her companion, "Dean Valentine hasn't drunk blood in a long time, that's why he has so many wrinkles on his face."

"We are all good at taking exams..." The minotaur Dradromir was encouraging himself, "so we will definitely be able to pass this exam, right?"

"Are you ready?" Although Ivy was asking the question, he had no intention of waiting for an answer. He made a few gestures, and a huge teleportation array quickly unfolded with him as the center, including all five students before they could scream.

After the five students were teleported away, Ivy made a gesture of invitation to the two deans and then disappeared from the spot.

"This is simply a sneak attack!" Grayson's complaining voice came from the front.

Then came Bastion's nervous voice: "Shhh - maybe the exam starts now! We should observe the terrain first!"

The teleportation point that Ivy set was a short distance away from the main body of the Serdun ruins. It was a long-abandoned carriage, which should have been a vehicle used to transport combat supplies during the war. It was now in tatters and its original appearance could no longer be seen.

If Ivy hadn't seen the huge, rusty wheels on the ground, he wouldn't have guessed that this was a magic carriage.

"Very rich black mana...even richer than the magical atmosphere of Wade Shin Academy..." Dean of the Bloodline expressed his feelings as soon as he walked out of the teleportation array.

In fact, Ivey also discovered this.

The ominous magic in the air was much stronger than when he came to investigate before, but based on his understanding of Mogasso, the spell that absorbed vitality should not have such a strong effect. After all, the nodes placed in the academy had been released by the deans.

"Something is not right." Ivy manipulated the breeze around him to lift himself up, and at the same time told several students who were still discussing strategies not far away, "Don't take any action yet, the situation here has changed."

Ivy, who flew over the damaged carriage, immediately saw a huge creature. It was a monster with five arms. Although it looked like it was wearing a dark green robe, a closer look revealed that the robe worn by the monster was actually made up of countless moss-covered bones.

The five-armed monster had a multi-eyed insect-like head, and those eyes were now glowing scarlet. Huge amounts of black mana flowed from the moat of bones in the ruins of Thurshidun, and then was continuously grabbed by the monster's five arms and swallowed through the ragbag-like mouth on its head.

"What happened?" Kemina, who was standing below, asked worriedly, "You don't look well."

"We're in trouble." Ivy waved his hand and distributed his wind element flying in the air to the other three faculty members on the ground, "Come up and see for yourselves."

"Titan!" Ambose recognized the monster the first time he saw it. "The Sorrow Devouring Titan!"

"This is not just trouble, it's big trouble!" The vampire's expression was not good either. "That's an existence of the same level as the Founding Dragon! Why is it here?!"
