Magic Academy Bans Harem

Chapter 96: Xia Lu Lawn
If you ask how Ritas did it, he absorbed the power of the labyrinth to cast an indestructible protective magic.

This is actually based on many conditions that can be said to be coincidental.

First, he must have a page of a magic book that contains a powerful protective barrier magic.

The magic book pages held by Ritas that day, or in other words, the magic book pages held by all the students who came to the maze were special.

This is because these pages of magic books were engraved personally by the "Tree Witch" Levis, one of the four sages.

Originally, a practical test that did not appear dangerous from any angle did not require such a large-scale operation.

On the one hand, there were some disturbing factors before the actual technical test. For example, John, who was away on business, had not replied to my letter for a long time and could not be contacted.

In addition, the aftermath of the Summer Festival has not subsided yet. Therefore, if the students encounter an accident during the practical test, it is very likely that the academy will face a crisis of survival.

After all, the practical test is an activity organized by the college. Therefore, even if there are force majeure and other factors, as long as an accident occurs, the college must bear the responsibility.

Finally, Ritas himself lacks a sense of security.

Although he would not show it, he always remembered in his heart that he was a person who should have "died" three months ago.

Therefore, Ritas definitely did not think that it was not appropriate to ask his teacher to make a powerful protective magic book page for him, and the tree witch was too idle and might do something. So he said, "Teacher, you don't want the long-standing academy to be ruined in your hands because of a ridiculous accident, right?" and asked her to make more than 200 copies of magic book pages overnight.

Professor Ritas also considered many factors.

And it is precisely because these magic pages are very "fresh" that they can exert exceptionally powerful power.

Moreover, when placed in the hands of ordinary students, the magic book pages are just a powerful shield with a tracking effect, but when used by a great wizard like Ritas, it will have great plasticity.

Secondly, the current state of the maze also gave Ritas an opportunity to take advantage of.

There are actually "foreign objects" in the maze. They are the shadow vines that are obviously "terror disaster" itself and will only attack Ritas.

In other words, the Terror actually only needs to trap Ritas, and using those shadow vines and its own power is enough to make Ritas overwhelmed.

Therefore, sending power into the maze to produce a bunch of weak monsters is meaningless. Forcing the maze to become an advanced maze and produce a leader monster is simply providing a way for Ritas to escape.

Ritas concluded that the disaster was out of control and that the opponent was unable to restrain himself from sending power into the maze.

Judging from various phenomena that occurred afterwards, Ritas's inference was correct.

As for the last coincidence that isn't really a coincidence, it's that Ritas happened to have recently created a new type of magic circle.

The reason why it cannot be considered a coincidence is that this new magic circle was obtained by Ritas after studying the star pattern.

With the two star patterns of Merci and Noah, Ritas extracted the identical parts of the star patterns of both parties through comparison. And with those parts as the framework, Ritas integrated his own knowledge of magic arrays, completed the magic array and tested it many times. In the end, he got a new magic array that was not yet complete.

Currently, the magic circle sometimes succeeds and sometimes fails, and the effect is not particularly stable.

Moreover, Ritas had no idea where this magic circle could be used after it took effect. Because the effect of the magic circle was really similar to the star pattern, which was the type that forced the power in the opponent's body to be released.

The effect of this magic circle, to put it in a positive way, is to stimulate the opponent's potential. But to put it in a negative way, it is to force the opponent's power out of control.

However, there is no special power in the human body, let alone out of control. Therefore, until this day, Genritas still believed that this magic circle was a subtle magic circle that could only be used on the holder of the star pattern.

Unexpectedly, the maze, a special creature that is currently suffering from external force, provides a stage for the new magic circle that Ritas doesn't know where to use.

So, with all the coincidences coming together, what Ritas needed to do became simple.

He set up a large number of new magic circles around the maze. It didn't matter whether these magic circles were effective or not, or whether the effect was strong or weak after they were effective. Quantity could make up for everything, and as long as one or two magic circles were effective, it would be enough.

Then, he connected the power stimulated from the "maze" to the highly malleable pages of the magic book, presenting a magnificent and indestructible red palace.

Almost all the key things were "borrowed" by Ritas.

It cannot be said that Ritas did nothing, at least the appearance of the palace was based on his ideas, and he also decorated it.

In this way, in addition to being mentally tense, Ritas, who completed an act of using one's own spear to attack the other's shield, successfully attracted all the attention of the maze and the disaster to himself, and dragged it to the moment when the connection between the parasitic core and the maze was cut off.

Now, he only needs to defeat the newly born maze leader, the snake-headed monster, to release an exit from the maze and escape.

All Ritas was thinking about from the beginning to the end was escaping from the maze.

It's not that he didn't want to settle accounts with the "terrorist disaster" that had inexplicably targeted him. But he thought that after they evacuated, there was someone more suitable than him to settle accounts with the culprit.

Now that there is no external help, Ritas needs to use his own magic to defeat the snake-headed monster in front of him.

Roar--

Ever since the connection to the parasitic core was cut off, Engri, who was on top of the snake head, hung his arms and became silent.

But the huge snake head itself was still roaring and spitting out flames towards the position of Ritas and others.

The flaming meteor, which had been weakened a lot, hit Ritas completely, and Iris and Xia Lu, who were protected by Ritas, heard a crackling sound.

After the protective barrier given by the Tree Witch disappeared, Ritas still had his own protective barrier.

"If we continue like this and suffer the same attack thirteen times, we will be in danger."

"." "."

The two students were speechless, some not knowing whether the number thirteen times was a lot or a little.

Professor, you really don't know any offensive magic?

Iris and Xia Lu wanted to ask this question because, in their impression, after Ritas entered the battle, he did nothing but open the shield.

However, they did not make any noise to interfere.

I saw that Ritas, who usually used magic casually without chanting or holding a wand, now had a wand in his hand.

Generally speaking, in order to ensure maximum power, wands will retain some of the characteristics of the raw materials.

Take Professor Dodge’s wand “Twilight” as an example. Although the wand is as sharp as a rapier, the handle is slightly curled and raised, retaining the characteristics of a plant root.

However, Ritas's wand is very special.

It doesn't even look like it's made of wood, it's covered in a crystal clear shell. There are no bends or kinks in its shape, it's basically a completely symmetrical thin cone.

Ritas's wand, named "Rhythm".

In addition to the magic wand, Ritas also took out a bunch of bottles and jars and magic pages with magic circles engraved on them from his bag. Then, he began to cast magic.

Compared with the extremely complicated preparation for casting spells, Ritas's casting process is simple and fast.

He still didn't chant any spells, and even his body movements were almost non-existent.

But the wand in his hand was almost instantly filled with a strong light.

At the same time as the magic wand was shining all over, the magic circle set up by Ritas also began to work.

Iris and Xia Lu saw that the things prepared by Ritas were being consumed quickly. Moreover, not only the props, but also the surrounding sand, lava, flames and other things were dissipating together.

I don't know whether it was Ritas who turned the surrounding objects into magic particles, or the magic particles that turned them into dust.

A large number of crystal light particles floated and rotated with Ritas as the center, and finally slowly gathered at the tip of the magic wand.

Finally, Ritas took action and pointed the wand forward. The light particles concentrated on the tip of the wand drifted to the target location in an orderly manner and quickly condensed into shape.

It was an exquisite crown emitting red light.

Before Ritas finished casting the spell, the same scene happened again. Other objects appeared one after another beside the red crown.

In the end, a total of six objects surrounded Ritas.

Large magic "elemental sacred vessel".

Under this magic, Ritas summoned a crown wrapped in flames, a shield made of rocks, leg armor with whistling winds, a cloak with surging water, arm armor with twisted roots, and a ring with dazzling light.

"Professor, these are."

Xia Lu looked at the elemental sacred objects arranged on the ground with glowing eyes.

Matching the light of those elements, the exquisite and beautiful props are like pieces of art.

"A kind of strengthening magic."

Ritas answered simply.

Strengthen magic.

Because of the incident of "following the mage", whenever Iris heard this word during this period of time, she felt as if her heart was stabbed.

But at this moment, Iris did not have those extra thoughts.

After all, those elemental holy artifacts filled with illusory colors are fundamentally different from the "enhanced magic" that Iris knows.

While Iris was lost in thought, Ritas shifted his gaze to Xia Lu.

"Now is the time to go all out, student Xia Lu."

During Ritas's spellcasting, the giant snake head twisting on the ground spit out several more flames. Therefore, according to the initial estimate, Ritas's protective barrier could only withstand nine attacks.

"Even if you say so, Professor."

Xia Lu stroked her face gently with her hand, looked at Ritas and then at Iris, showing a slightly embarrassed expression.

This seemed a little different from her previous pretentious attitudes; it was a genuine reluctance.

"Indeed, as your class mentor, it is not right for me to force students to exert their strength in a critical moment. So, student Xia Lu, can the following matter be regarded as a personal commission from me, Ritas Elson, to the adventurer Xia Lu Lawn?"

"So this is a request from an adventurer? There's really nothing we can do about it."

Xia Lu sighed helplessly and said,
"It's very expensive to hire me——"

As Xia Lu spoke, she raised her right arm slightly, and then suddenly scratched her right wrist with the sharp nails of her left hand.

"Xia Lu!?"

Faced with the blood-spattering scene, Iris couldn't help but scream out in shock. But she soon discovered that both Xia Lu and Ritas were taking a "calm down" attitude.

"That's strange, how did the professor know this?"

Xia Lu said this in confusion, and then began to lick the wound that was bleeding.

The moment the smell of blood exploded in Xia Lu's mouth, Xia Lu's eyes were dyed red.

"It's mainly the name Grom. If Captain Grom was that age and grew up in ordinary human society at that time, he wouldn't have chosen this name, and he would know its rich meaning. Even now, a generation later, if you want to use Grom as a name, you need to add some other words. Just like my middle name, 'Berengrom'."

"Hey~ I'm afraid I'd be exposed just because of something as trivial as this?"

Xia Lu looked at Ritas in disbelief.

But Ritas actually concealed some things.

That is the fact that Captain Grom of the "Silver Dragon Adventure Group" became erratic after he went to explore the traces left by the "Beast Empire", which actually became a supporting evidence.

As the two were talking, Xia Lu's petite body suddenly swelled up dramatically.

"I have a question here as well. Why is your adventure group named 'Silver Dragon' Adventure Group? Because the attitude of the Lawn family looks more like..."

"Ahahaha, that's actually because when my father went to found the adventure group, the guild's receptionist was an elderly, hard of hearing, perfunctory, and irresponsible person."

As she spoke, Xia Lu's body continued to transform.

The rather solid uniform of Earls College was completely torn apart, and her face and limbs began to rapidly transform into beasts, with silver and grey hair growing out from all over her body.

"I see, no wonder. So the name your adventure group originally planned to take was..."

"'Silver Wolf Adventure Group'."

Xia Lu, who had completely transformed into a werewolf, had turned into a huge werewolf. Her back, covered with silver hair, and her long tail slapped the ground, making a "bang" sound full of power.

"Professor and Iris, please keep this secret~"

Xia Lu, who looked like a completely upright beast, placed a finger with sharp nails in front of her mouth full of sharp teeth and said so.

Even so, Xia Lu's tone was still as playful as always.

But that deep and deep voice would only make those who heard it feel a shudder from the bottom of their hearts.
