It's weird to apply for Witch Academy as a boy

Although Ning Lanqiuyue was very unwilling in her heart, the reality was that no accidents occurred.

"By the way, Archer, I want to ask, have you ever seen anyone from the Wizarding Academy?" Tan Han also asked at this moment.

"This is also one of the questions I am confused about. I have seen people from the wizard academy before, but not since then. I guess..."

At this moment, Achilles did not finish his words. After all, there were many forces in Ninglan New City. They chose Ninglan Qiuyu in order to use violence to restore stability in Ninglan New City, and then find a way to go back.

And they locked the key to the problem on Nightmare, and then things happened one after another.

"Never mind for now. Even if time was tight before, it would be best to check everyone now. So I still want to ask, do you really have no effective means to detect the existence of the nightmare?"

Ning Lanqiuyue had discussed with Tan Han before about the method of detecting nightmares. Tan Han gave several suggestions, such as detection spells, detection spells, scanning spells and so on, but these had not been verified, and Tan Han could not guarantee that they could be discovered.

Afterwards, she learned from Tan Han that different supernatural academies have their own unique methods, and perhaps she could find outsiders to try more.

"I don't know if the magic I master can discover such a hidden nightmare, but... may I ask, how did you discover the nightmare before?"

"It was discovered by Teacher Xiaohan. Oh, Teacher Xiaohan is Yang Yuehan as you call her. She is a student at the Witch Academy."

"Yang Yuehan..." Hearing this name, Aqir's eyelids twitched subconsciously. It was obvious that he still had some unpleasant memories of this name.

"Didn't you ask the other party what means they used?" Finally, Archer asked this question.

"Well... I'm afraid we can't replicate the method Xiaohan used." At this moment Tan Han spoke. Tan Han knew a lot of things such as clairvoyance and the floating world level, which were heights she could not reach.

"That's right. After all, the means of your Witch Academy is the spell book. Without the spell book, it would be meaningless." Archer also echoed.

"Maybe." Tan Han did not correct him, "But we should indeed investigate and notify other extraordinary academies."

……

now.

Ning Lanqiuyu walked alone in the empty corridor, and those who followed him were sent away by him. There were some things that could not be known by other people, such as the basement. There must be secrets in it. At least before he knew it, he didn't want others to know.

As he walked, his steps becoming more and more urgent, his hand reached into his side pocket for the key that had been carefully placed there.

Until he went deep into the dark underground, the atmosphere here was as eerie and damp as a dungeon, with a strange smell and a faint smell of blood.

Suddenly, Ning Lanqiuyu stopped, bent down, and gently wiped the bloodstains on the ground with one hand.

Then he stood up and looked at the end of the road, and he seemed to know what was there.

When he came here, it seemed to be exactly the same as the gate in his memory. At that time, his father scared him that there was a devil imprisoned here, and if he sneaked here again next time, he would be eaten by the devil.

And this time, he came here again.

He picked up the key and compared it with the keyhole, and it matched.

As the key was inserted, the metallic sound echoed here. Every movement he made would produce a violent response and stimulate his nerves. Obviously, what he did was very simple. He just inserted the key into the keyhole and then opened it.

Click.

With a crisp sound, the door was opened.

As he pushed open the heavy door, there seemed to be only a small secret room inside, and a figure that Ning Lanqiuyu was very familiar with appeared in his eyes.

Ning Lanqiuyun, his father, Ning Lanqiuyu was not surprised, or rather, he had expected it just now.

"You're here, Ning Lanqiuyu, you still haven't changed, you like to rummage through my drawer." Ning Lanqiuyun also spoke at this moment, but her voice was full of weakness.

"Aren't you waiting for me to come? What is this place?"

"I don't know. I took over the position of city lord in a hurry, just like you. I knew nothing about it. Then I was busy until I forgot about it, until... that nightmare demon mentioned it. I guess... this is probably the good fortune that our Ninglan New City has gathered to protect us and continue."

"Luck?!"

"I guessed that luck is so illusory. To believe in the existence of luck is to give up the efforts of the pioneers of Ninglan New City for generations... But when I really saw it, I understood that it is because of our efforts that luck protects us."

As Ning Lanqiuyun spoke, the look in his eyes changed from confusion to determination, and then he raised his head and looked at Ning Lanqiuyu at the moment.

"You are my proudest son. Once you make a mistake, you can never go back and fix it. Falling into the trap of the nightmare is the biggest mistake I have made in my life. Ninglan New City is now handed over to you. You must also try to become a qualified city lord, not a child who never grows up."

"... "

"The position of city lord represents responsibility and more. Anyone and anything in Ninglan New City can be sacrificed, including the city lord, but Ninglan New City itself cannot be sacrificed."

"Anyone can be sacrificed... just like my mother?" The silent Ning Lanqiuyu suddenly spoke at this moment.

"Yes...but...Ninglan New City is now in your hands. I just hope you can continue it well."

"You don't have to worry about this, but compared to this, what exactly is collected here?"

"I don't know... but this is something left behind by the first Ninglan City Lord. Perhaps... you should go and feel it for yourself."

After Ning Lanqiuyun finished speaking, he moved half a body distance away, and the existence that was blocked by him finally entered Ning Lanqiuyu's eyes.

It was a beautiful circular work of art.

It is a finished product made by carving and hollowing out a piece of high-purity white crystal. It emits a soft light and is crystal clear, as if it contains extraordinary power.

What is even more eye-catching is the thing inside that looks like the moon surrounded by stars, which is out of tune with the white crystal.

Ning Lanqiuyun walked forward and took a closer look before he realized that it seemed to be a seed, illusory and erratic, but its skin was dry and even cracked.

"Is this... a seed?"

Chapter 338 The Dream Demon's Layout

Underground city.

"Block all the passages leading up to the underground city, including the hidden passages. Send a signal immediately if you find any trace of the nightmare." I said.

The difficulty of the nightmare demon exceeded my expectations. Admittedly, it is indeed not as powerful as me in terms of combat power, but its ability to survive and hide is quite good.

Moreover...the other side was quite numerous, and had no sympathy at all, and had no mercy or indignation for what happened to their companions. I killed their companions, and they were only angry because they had lost some help.

As I spoke, everyone present nodded silently.

This was the first time that I displayed the combat power of an outsider in front of them. It was also a formal declaration that as an outsider, I already possessed the ability to interfere with both dreams and reality.

They also have a fighting style that is completely different from theirs, and the use of spells is like divine magic to them.

Even though they have extraordinary skills and extraordinary background related to inscriptions, their thinking is still the development ideas and strategies of the technological side. It can be seen from the fact that they focus on extraordinary killing weapons and armaments.

Moreover, this battle between me and the nightmare took place directly in the city. Too many people saw the battle scene that was far beyond their cognition in the aftermath of this battle, which had a strong impact on their concepts.

But I don't care, and no one dares to object to my behavior.

After all, they know very well that if it weren't for me, they don't know what would happen to them now.

Even if they don't go to Ninglan New City on the ground, it doesn't mean that they won't exchange information with the ground. They also know about the existence of the nightmare. It's not a minor existence like the nightmare. The other party is really capable of killing people!

They may even treat humans as food and constantly exploit them. That kind of life is worse than death.

In addition, at this moment, there is a shortage of new extraordinary weapons in the extraordinary research base, and the ground patrol team is understaffed, making it difficult to form an effective defense force.

They sent people and weapons to support the ground. Doesn't this mean that the underground city's special geographical location will not be affected by disasters on the ground?

Now, they were hit directly in the empty space by someone, their aorta was injured, and even the ground veins were threatened. How could they endure this?

They also realized that they had made a very wrong decision. They almost destroyed the underground city area and even affected the Ninglan New City on the ground.

So, the only way now is to remedy it.

Of course...there is also the need to curry favor with the scholar Xiaohan who just saved them from the dire straits.

It was not until this moment that they truly realized what kind of existence this scholar who usually studied extraordinary runes and communication skills with them was. This broke the information they had obtained from him, that outsiders could only stay in dreams and could not interfere with reality?

The person before them dealt a heavy blow to their perceptions.

The only thing they can do now is to please the other party. They have done a lot of behavioral analysis and personality profiling on this outsider in order to understand the behavioral pattern of this time bomb and make everything controllable.

Now that this bomb has shown its power to really kill them, the nature of many things has changed.

The only thing they can be thankful for at this moment is that the other party is still a "friendly" target with whom they can communicate.

"It's time for us to go back. By the way... build a containment facility for these guys." I kicked the nightmares under me. They were the unlucky guys who were imprisoned by my double confinement spells in reality and dreams.

If I want to contain and study the nightmare that was captured earlier, it will cost the base a lot of manpower and resources, and it will also be extremely dangerous. The person in charge and senior management of the base will most likely not agree.

But it's different now, when I showed my strength, the other party made an equal judgment. I don't believe they don't have this much foresight, and there is no harm in them leading the research on nightmares, or directly interrogating them to obtain intelligence and understand these monsters.

Besides... I also need them to help me test the limits of resurrection and other possibilities. If many things are not experimented with, relying only on theoretical research will only lead to constant failures. Nightmares are an excellent experimental material.

However, with the current human and material resources of the Extraordinary Research Base, it is naturally a bit stretched to contain the nightmare. Moreover, too many scholars have been frightened after experiencing the nightmare attack, and many projects have been suspended or even completely terminated.

During this period, a large number of security forces in the base lost their combat capabilities. After all, ordinary people, even if they are warriors enhanced by extraordinary powers, may collapse when facing attacks that far exceed their cognition.

Those who died in this incident still need to be dealt with properly. There are too many things that need to be completed in the underground city.

There are also potential hidden dangers and so on.

I don't think the nightmare demons will give up their control over the underground city just like that, even with my presence, they will not give up. This is the lifeline of the entire Ninglan New City. If they control this place, they will have the leverage to threaten the entire Ninglan New City. But unfortunately, the nightmare demons discovered it too late.

Before the Extraordinary Research Base officially takes in the nightmares, there is one very important thing to do, which is to get something out of the nightmares' mouths.

This interrogation was a supplement to the last hasty interrogation, and I caught three nightmares this time. Although the large number made it difficult for me to deal with them, they were still within my control.

Moreover, if there are a large number of nightmares, it will be much simpler than interrogating a single nightmare. There is also a very simple and effective way to make them reveal more information, that is the prisoner's dilemma. Moreover, this trick is more effective for nightmares that do not have any extra friendship with each other.

Coupled with the information gap I have at the moment, it is easy to create misunderstandings between them.

It didn't take long before I got a lot of useful information from them.

For example, after learning about the nightmares I had captured, their "companions" would no longer bother to rescue them.

But according to this statement, they should have sold out the information of those guys, but they kept their mouth shut about it.

It was not until I paid a certain price and used the resurrection technique to inhumanely torture him that I realized that there were still two nightmares wandering in the underground city.

It can be said that including those two, as well as the ones I caught and killed, the number of nightmares that came down this time has exceeded ten.

And they did come down from the passage that Ning Lanqiuyue knew, so this matter was confirmed.

Should Ning Lanqiuyue be blamed for the disaster that happened to the underground city?

It’s not surprising. After all, this is destined. Even if Ning Lanqiuyue is not there, there will be others.

Afterwards, the nightmare demon had another target, which was the nightmares who were contained in the extraordinary research base!

There is a lot of luck in those nightmares, which is also their goal. In the beginning, their goal was simply to control the entire extraordinary research base and the ground patrol team.

"Control the base and the ground patrol team. This means you can completely control the entire underground city area. Why?" I asked.

"Earth veins... In order to completely control the earth veins..." the dying nightmare in front of me answered.

"Humph."

I snorted coldly and prepared to turn around and leave. My action signaled that I was going to ask other nightmares. If their answers were different from the other two, then even more cruel torture would be waiting for them.

And this question is just a routine question. After all, apart from the ground veins, there seems to be nothing more important in the underground city.

But the earth veins are not something they can destroy just because they want to. The energy in them cannot be replenished even if I use the excessive consumption spell book. In addition, due to the carrying characteristics of the earth veins energy, even I don't have the confidence to destroy it.

I guess they just want to take control of the underground city, let the earth veins fall into their hands, create an information gap, and use this method to threaten.

Moreover, when those nightmares tried to attack the earth veins before, besides causing abnormal fluctuations in the energy within the earth veins, were there any other effects?

No, the solidity of the earth veins is beyond human imagination.

"Wait... wait..." Just as I turned around, the nightmare demon called me. Her tone was filled with fear, but there was a little relief when she said wait.

"explain."

I uttered a word concisely, with a tone that showed indifference to their life and death, because here even death is not a relief for them, and the resurrection technique is the last straw that breaks the camel's back.

"For...trading, helping...master the underground city..."

"Deal? What deal? Speak clearly." I came up to her and asked in a deep voice. I didn't expect that just a matter of routine would lead to digging out good stuff.

"Someone... wants to unify Ninglan New City... above ground... underground..."

"continue."

"He helped us...down, we...took control..."

"Ning Lanqiu Yu?" At this moment I said a name again.

"right…"

"Is he colluding with you, the Incubus?"

"have…"
