TN: Hey guys, thinking about doing a bonus chapter for patron or something of the sort but don’t know yet. Please fill out this survey if you’re interested or just to give us some suggestions/feedback. Thanks. Enjoy the chapter!
Initially, when faced with the sudden attack of the Green Wolves, in order to reach Black Lake Forest quicker, Woos planned to use large scale magic to efficiently kill them all. But Caesar rushed out midway and disrupted his plans.
He didn’t expect Caesar to have so quick reactions, not only did he organize the students to attack and disrupted the wolves’ momentum, he also skillfully used fireball to cut off the roads and prevented the wolves from charging.
Now that the situation has been brought under control, the next step was for the students to display their power. Gaining experience through combat —— wasn’t this the purpose of the actual combat drill? Therefore, Woos decided not to interfere and left it to the students.
“You idiots, you can’t even use a simple fireball? How the hell did you pass the selection test?” Rosie’s delicate taunt came.
The battle wasn’t over yet.
The students present all passed the selection test. They were definitely not weak in terms of raw power. It was just because they were too nervous, so some people couldn’t even send out ordinary fireballs.
“This time, don’t give me a reason to have a low opinion! All members, prepare fireballs!”
The red six-pointed star first appeared in front of Rosie’s palm. Under her call, the students finally showed their true skills.
“Fireball!” The uniform magic chants began, compared to the chaotic mess before, this time there was some semblance of grandeur.
A beautiful six-pointed star emerged one after another. There were more than 20 students in a row, those 20 flaming red six-pointed stars were quite dazzling. The magic in the surrounding air was also sucked up by the circuit formations, forming an intense magical fluctuation.
“Maintain the circuit formation, don’t release it!” Caesar shouted.
His voice was not thick, he did not even have the dignity and intimidation that a leader should have, but his tone was calm and collected, with well thought out plans, people couldn’t help but put their trust in him.
Who cares if he was in the limelight? As long as they followed him, they would be able to successfully pass the actual combat drill —— that’s probably what the majority of the students thought, that’s why they willingly listened to Caesar’s orders.
“Steady, steady!”
The wolves were still on the other side of the fire, if the fireballs were released now, they wouldn’t even hit the wolves. Gradually, the flames began to extinguish, the angry wolves stared at the group of ignorant youngsters and once again launched an offensive against them.
Now!
“Fireballs, fire!”
Whoosh, all members released their magic and the fireballs fell like heavy rain. The scene was spectacular. The wolves ate the magic head on and suffered from the explosions. No matter how fast and how agile they were, they could not escape. In an instant, countless deaths and injuries came to the wolves that had just crossed over the fire, they had been completely broken up and could no longer form a proper assault.
Next came the clearing of the remaining wolves.
While the battle ahead was in full swing. In the rear, a cold maid sat quietly in the carriage like nothing was going on, admiring the ant’s self-improvement. Perhaps the students felt that this was an exciting battle, but for Elena, it was child play.
Just mere Green Wolves, if Lin Xiao took out his true strength, he could instantly wipe them out, but now they made it into a bloody battle, it was really foolish.
Of course, Lin Xiao himself was also very reluctant to play around with them, but in order to improve his score and leave a good impression in the teacher’s mind, he also had to follow Rosie to the forefront of the team and mixed into Caesar’s bombardment squad.
Perhaps because of the distance from Lin Xiao, Elena felt dizzy, the rebound effect of the slave contract began to work. She thought about it and decided to leave the carriage and walk to the front of the group.
Sure enough, as the distance between the two shortened, her dizziness symptoms also improved. In that case, Elena decided to get closer and continued to move forward.
“Lin Xiao’s maid, don’t go over! The pack was scattered, so they’re likely waiting in ambush in the surroundings, it’s too dangerous!” a bald teacher worriedly said.
But Elena didn’t even look at him and continued walking forward.
“Hey, did you hear me? Don’t go any further!”
Elena continued to walk, and at the same time coldly uttered two words:
“Shut up.”
A simple yet intimidating statement.
“You, you…” The teacher didn’t expect the other party to be so ungrateful. He was momentarily dumbstruck by her domineering attitude. He could only watch helplessly as she walked away.
She walked all the way to the front of the team, Elena silently stopped just a few meters away from Lin Xiao, because she was wearing a gray burqa, she was very inconspicuous, so the students did not notice her presence.
Just as the teacher said, the wolves that were scattered by the fireballs separated and pounced from all directions, trying to find a way past the front and mount an attack. The students’ control of magic was not very precise, they also were not well coordinated. Although they were able to achieve a bombardment under Caesar’s directions, it was impossible to construct a perfect line of defense.
At this time, a rustling sound came from the nearby shrubbery.
In the next moment, a Green Wolf scuttled out with its mouth wide open and pounced towards Elena!
“Danger!”
The teacher who had just been stunned by Elena shouted anxiously, but it was already too late.
The green wolf was too cunning, no magic could be released in time at that distance, not to mention the teacher was a warrior!
The poor maid did not have any means of resistance, her neck would definitely be snapped by the green wolf!
Damn it, I should have forced her to stop! The teacher regretted it very much and couldn’t bear to watch anymore.
Looking at the Green Wolf that was almost within arms reach, Elena frowned slightly, she could see the mud on the wolf’s paw, but she did not hide or defend. She just unhappily glared at the wolf.
Awoooh…it was like the Green Wolf flying out was frightened, it let out a low wail, its body abruptly went stiff, flipped in midair and inexplicably landed on the floor.
The teacher looked at this scene with a stunned look.
What happened just now? What about getting her neck bitten?
Because Elena’s body blocked part of his view, he could only see the Green Wolf falling to the ground, but he didn’t know why.
Snap.
A familiar snapping sound came, and then, a fireball hit the Green Wolf on the floor and burned it to death.
“Tsk… disobedient maid.” Lin Xiao, turned his head and muttered, then pretended that nothing had happened and continued to focus on the wolves in front of him.
Looking at the Green Wolf that was burnt into charcoal by her foot, and looking at Lin Xiao, who was pretending to put in effort and releasing spells and was acting as an obedient child to get an A, she sighed.
“Humans are truly foolish.”
Under Caesar’s command, the wolves were completely defeated.
The disintegrated wolves were no longer a strong whole. The divided Green Wolves were fighting alone and became a moving target for killing. Although these targets were running very fast, had agile movements and could occasionally hide in the grass to give students a surprise, but after all, their individual combat power was too weak and could not win against the student’s magic.
The sun was setting, the slanted sunlight stretched their shadows very long, the shouting of magic chants, the explosion sound of the fireball, the anguished wailing of the Green Wolves, these various sounds interweaved and played a melodious song of victory for the students first battle.
After the initial tension and hesitation, the students who entered combat mode quickly showed their true strength. Although they lacked practical experience, these Green Wolves were undoubtedly the best experience!
The battle quickly came to an end.
“Why did you come? Stop causing me trouble! Didn’t I tell you to obediently stay in the carriage?” Lin Xiao shot an ice cone through the head of a Green Wolf, then reproached the maid behind him.
“Do you humans only have seven seconds of memory?” Elena remained unmoved and coldly replied, “Did you forget that I signed a slave contract with you, I must…”
“You must follow the master… Hey, sorry, I really forgot.” Lin Xiao awkwardly scratched his head.
This setting was too annoying, if she was so close, what if the Green Wolf attacked again?
In order to not cause any more trouble, Lin Xiao simply took her away from the front and stood in the back. Instead of trying hard to kill the wolf, he focused on destroying the lone wolves who tried to break into the group, he did logistical support work and conveniently slacked off.
“Be good and don’t run around again.”
“Eh?
Elena was still in a daze and suddenly realized that her arm was grabbed.
