Magic High School.

"In short, the problem seems to be getting a bit serious..." Xiaoye said.

Li Ge: "..."

Also, where's your teleportation card? It's not like you didn't even have time to use it, right? Or were you suddenly tricked and ambushed while you were off guard, and didn't even get to use your teleportation card?

Li Ge was actually quite hesitant to go to Yi Lian's hometown. After learning about the habits of the mutant elves, he even had to dress very conservatively in his dormitory for a while, fearing that his brother might stab him in the back.

And back in the homeland of the Morphlings, if there were a large group of Morphlings wanting to hold a dueling ritual...

Hellish drawing!

Li Ge glanced at him, but still received no response from Yi Lian. She could only say, "Maybe he's sleeping. Let's wait and see tomorrow. Valerie's problem will take some time to resolve..."

That's the only arrangement they can make for now. Let's see what happens tomorrow. Maybe they're overthinking it.

……

The next morning, the first thing Li Ge did after waking up was to check her messages, but there was no response...

It's been over six hours already, which means there's a serious problem, and panicking won't help.

"Snapped!"

There was a knock on the window of Li Ge's room. His small room was separated from the front yard by a wall, and there was a small window facing the front yard. At this moment, Xiao Ye, who was fully armed, was by his window.

"This is a serious problem..."

“I feel like if we went there, we might see that Yilian is already a mother of several children…” Li Ge started spouting nonsense again.

Xiaoye couldn't help but roll her eyes. She didn't believe that a mutant elf could get pregnant in such a short time, especially for a long-lived species.

The two decided to check on Valerie first, and if Valerie was alright, they would go directly to Yilian's house.

Previously, they had to write an application report to leave, but now they only need to register with the Executive Department. Li Ge also has a black card, so he doesn't need to get any other one-time teleportation cards.

The two rushed to the medical department. Valerie was still asleep. The first thing they asked the head nurse was, "How is our friend?"

The head nurse glanced at Li Ge's mask, which resembled a locust, and felt that his figure and his fondness for wearing masks were familiar, but she quickly dismissed it. After checking the test results, she said, "The problem has been initially alleviated; it seems that the energy the patient needs to absorb is approaching saturation."

Just as Li Ge and the others breathed a sigh of relief, the head nurse continued, "But even so, although she's not eating as excessively anymore, the energy she needs to absorb every day is still several times, even ten times, that of a normal person!"

"The psychic vortex has only slowed down, not disappeared. Preliminary tests indicate that it belongs to a part of her soul, and for some unknown reason, this part of her soul is frantically draining energy from her body, even if it drains her body dry."

This left both Li Ge and Xiao Ye speechless.

Alas, Yi Lian has vanished without a trace, and Valerie's current condition remains unknown. Is there something wrong with her domain? Or is her Noble Phantasm absorbing her energy so frantically as it evolves?

Now they feel like they're both father and mother, mending and patching up the family.

"So, doctor, what should we do about this?" Li Ge asked.

“This is a case the medical department has never encountered before, so we don’t know what to do. However, in theory, as long as the energy is replenished in time, this problem will not affect the person. At most, it will just make it easier for their psionic energy to be depleted during long battles. Here’s what we’ll do: prepare more psionic energy replenishment fluid.”

Finally, the head nurse came up with this temporary solution.

After all, their medical department has been around for so many years, what kind of disease haven't they seen?

Hey, I've never seen this disease before!

If we were to give this disease a scientific name, perhaps "Valerie's disease" would be a better one.

For now, it seems there's nothing seriously wrong with this thing. At most, it just keeps absorbing the spiritual energy in my body, making me unable to resist the urge to overeat. And this disease is also forcibly making my digestive system run at full power by accident. Any food that I eat will be turned into energy and leave almost no residue.

This is a talent that many people dream of.

Therefore, Li Ge filled nearly half of his storage ring with spiritual energy replenishment fluid before completing the discharge procedures.

"Li Ge, Li Ge, do I have an incurable disease? Tell me the truth, I can handle it, but am I beyond saving?" Even after being discharged from the hospital, Valerie said with a heavy heart.

Last night, she only saw one old doctor looking at her and shaking his head. Then he made a phone call, and soon three or five old doctors came, looked at her and shook their heads again. Then these people made a few more phone calls.

Then came a dozen or so doctors who looked like old men and women. These were all professors from the medical department of a magic academy, each with their own unique skills. Their fighting spirit and patience were astonishing. Some of them had even left the school and stayed in other worlds for a long time. They all came to see her for her strange illness.

After studying it for a long time, a large group of people could only shake their heads, guessing that the domain and the treasure had undergone some unknown mutation, which caused this situation.

But Valerie had no idea. This scene terrified her, and she thought she had some incurable disease and was going to die young.

"It's nothing, I just ate a little more. I'll be fine if I eat more in the future..." Li Ge complained.

"Don't comfort me, I can accept it, just tell me the truth, okay?" Valerie grabbed Li Ge's collar and shook him incessantly.

"Xiao Ye, Xiao Ye, please say something! What disease do I have? How much longer do I have to live?" Valerie asked Xiao Ye with a mournful expression after realizing that Li Ge didn't seem to be telling the truth.

Xiaoye: "..."

Li Ge: "..."

After much effort, he finally managed to convince the silly girl that she didn't have a terminal illness, but that her soul was inexplicably draining its spiritual energy.

After taking Valerie to the cafeteria for a big meal, they finally told her about their plans to visit Yilian's hometown.

In fact, Li Ge and Xiao Ye planned to let Valerie stay at school, since she was currently experiencing some health issues and there might be problems if she went there rashly.

But when Valerie heard that Yilian might be in trouble, she disregarded her earlier death throes and thought she didn't have many days left to live. Instead, she quickly said, "Quickly, quickly! If I'm not busy here, I'll go and help out!"

Well, after all, there are still hundreds of boxes of psionic replenishment fluid in the storage ring, so it shouldn't be a big problem, right?

maybe.

In short, after much back and forth, they finally completed the registration at the Execution Department and then prepared to teleport, using the location where Yi Lian had previously registered as the coordinates.

……

Sunshine, beach, waves.

The fruit trees by the sea seem to be ripening soon, and even the sea breeze carries a fragrance similar to coconut. A crab-like crustacean is on the fruit tree, using its pincers to steal fruit.

Is this really the homeland of the twisted mutant elves that Yilian mentioned?

Stepping onto the soft sand, Li Ge even wondered if he should just treat this place as a vacation. He hadn't been to the seaside in a long time and had seen such a pure and beautiful coastline.

Even Xiaoye and Valerie were stunned; the scene was so beautiful, it was unbelievable.

"This is Yilian's home?" Valerie could hardly believe it.

"Perhaps, roughly speaking..." Li Ge muttered, and soon he received a notification from the clown mask.

Li Ge: "?"

Chapter 216 Tiger Shark Explosive Fist

In that instant, Li Ge felt that these three comedic abilities looked strangely familiar...

Killer whales, tiger sharks, and great white sharks...

Why does it have such a powerful and overwhelming feel? What does that mean?

And suddenly, Li Ge discovered another problem.

"How come I have three options now?" Li Ge thought to himself. Then, he suddenly realized that the [Tier 2 Top Level] that had been stuck in the system had changed and was now [Tier 3 Beginner Level].

"I've become a legendary figure?" Li Ge was stunned for a moment; he didn't even feel the reality of it.

Just like that, it became a legend?

Actually, during the last monthly exam, Li Ge had already reached the top level of the second tier, which is equivalent to a near-legendary. However, he always felt that there should be some kind of bottleneck in this level, so he was never in a hurry. Who knew that he would reach the legendary level so naturally?

Could it be that I'm the first among my friends to reach the Legendary level?

Li Ge had this thought at that moment, and then he was inexplicably overjoyed, even temporarily forgetting to choose the powers of the killer whale, tiger shark, and great white shark...

After calming down a bit, he saw these abilities again.

Killer whales seem to have the highest stats, and strength and life force are also important, but some of them can only hold their breath underwater, not breathe underwater.

After spending so much time getting used to the clown mask, he felt he was gradually figuring out the patterns of the clown mask.

The abilities it bestows aren't random; they're always the ones that are most needed in this world. Just by looking at these three ocean musketeers, you know that this battle will primarily be a water-based conflict.

Unfortunately, I'm a terrible swimmer, so once I'm in the sea, I'll probably only be able to get one-tenth of my strength.

That's why they gave it to these three ocean brothers, right?

However, the biggest problem with killer whales is that they don't breathe underwater; they only have the ability to hold their breath underwater, which is a major drawback, so we won't choose them for now.

Tiger Shark Power is the most comprehensive, providing a 50% boost to all underwater attributes, as well as underwater breathing and underwater adaptation. However, the cost is becoming frenzied. Li Ge felt that this cost was a bit of a rip-off, so he decided to look at the next one.

The Great White Shark has the highest damage output, but the price it pays is evasion...

How could I possibly become a deserter general!

As for the mammoth whale, Li Ge thought about it and decided to give up, since it could only hold its breath underwater.

In the end, he still chose the Tiger Shark!

The next moment, Li Ge felt his power surge wildly, intensely, and explosively! So intense! Who could withstand it? What could possibly stop him?

He even felt that the Tiger Shark's power was in his fist, and that he could unleash the Tiger Shark Explosive Fist with just a casual strike!

"!" Unconsciously, Li Ge roared out, as if venting the power he had gained.

Xiaoye: "..."

Valerie: "..."

“What’s gotten into him this time?” Valerie asked.

"I don't know, maybe she's sick," Xiaoye muttered.

Soon, Li Ge seemed to have recovered somewhat. He also seemed a little embarrassed and tried to explain, "Would you believe me if I said this was a side effect of the mask's power?"

Xiaoye and Valerie both looked at him with suspicion, their faces clearly showing disbelief.
