High School of Demon Hunting-Chapter 1670 - 414: Contradictions in the Data
Black Prison Castle.
Outer Castle.
Top of the highest tower.
The dramatic changes in the Black Prison World tore apart the defensive magic array of the Outer Castle. Fortunately, the highest tower was not in front of that keiform flight land, and it managed to survive. Nonetheless, the edge of the keiform flight land still grazed the outskirts of the tower, creating a striking scene of broken walls and remnants.
Throughout the entire process, the five upper house members of the Moon Council remained calmly in the tower, even as blue bricks fell like rain from the edges of the tower, none of them were disturbed—William Tabbot didn’t even leave the battlements, his legs dangled outside the tower, sitting on the edge of the wall, watching the changes of the whole world with great enthusiasm.
Until the Four Seas Demon Ship emerged from the white mist.
"Times change," the prince of the Werewolf Clan rubbed his eye corner, wiping away the few drops of tears squeezed out by either excitement or emotion: "...Though I’ve heard it from the elders many times, witnessing such a dramatic change in the world in such a short time is truly awe-inspiring."
Milton Karen glanced at Mister Wolfman, corrected: "You’re not human... Besides, are you sure it was the rise of those two suns that moved you?"
William was rather displeased: "What other reason could there be? The miracles displayed by nature always exceed the imagination of magic... Doesn’t that make it exciting?"
The Vampire sneered: "Junjun doesn’t like pretentious guys, you might want to drop those old, filthy tricks."
The werewolf squinted his eyes, looking dangerously at the vampire, while also glancing at Su Shi Jun’s reaction from the corner of his eyes.
To his disappointment, the witch’s attention was never on the two emotional upper house members.
She continuously watched the white mist with a serious expression.
William cleared his throat, intending to end his previous thoughts with a few simple comments, but before he could speak, Milton Karen tugged his mouth corner, revealing a malicious smile:
"...Or rather, are you excited by those big dogs following the sun? Let me think, Sky Wolf Skull, Hati, and Tengu Luofan? Are those the names."
The werewolf’s eyes suddenly filled with blood, a chilling roar erupted from his throat.
Silent Souls smiled as he floated between the werewolf and the vampire, mediating.
"You two, quiet down!"
Su Shi Jun shot a glare at the two, warning them separately with her eyes, then returned her gaze to the white mist: "...The fog has arrived, the war is about to officially begin."
The witch’s gaze was like a gentle spring, falling on the wolfman’s agitated heart, instantly extinguishing his anger. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
The vampire, meanwhile, twirled a wine glass with his finger, swirling the bright red liquid inside as he nonchalantly commented: "Black Prison World has gathered many high-end combat powers from First University, the hunting team returning from the New World, and support from both the Wizard Council and our Moon Council, two legends and dozens of big wizards... What does the fog have?"
"Dark Beasts? Fallen Big Wizards? Or those tentacles secretly reaching from the Deeps of Starry Sky?"
"I feel that before they decide the victor, staying here obediently already accomplishes the ’summoning order’ effect."
The master of Dark Blue Castle looked at the vampire intently, seemingly wanting to see something from his slick expression. However, although Milton Karen’s cultivation was slightly lacking, his depths far exceeded Mister Wolfman’s, and even under Silent Souls’ scrutiny, he maintained a perfectly impeccable standard smile.
"Black Prison is no longer the wizard’s home ground, and judging by the combat power data on both sides, the school does not have the advantage."
Unexpectedly, Su Shi Jun spoke, her gaze swept across the infernal equation in front of the Outer Castle, and finally landed on the white mist above the keiform flight land, murmuring, as if talking to herself:
"The two principals are certainly legends, but to guard the Xuanhuang Wood, they always need to separate out a legendary combat power... That means, between the Inner and Outer Castles, there’s only one vice principal and four deans to face the Four Seas Demon Ship behind the mist."
"The enemies before the Outer Castle include prisoners from the prison like Behemoth, Eris, Sujade, Shallow Jin Ryoko, all experienced big wizards; there are cross-border Leviathans; an unspecified number of Fallen Big Wizards; and the notoriety of Zhu Yan, Chizheng, Dororo, Lu Zhiyuan remains."
"And to guard the Outer Castle, apart from those nine big wizards outside, it’s just us few."
"Certainly, the success of war cannot be determined by simply listing combat powers, but faulty comparisons of data will absolutely affect the outcome of war... Or, do you hope to see the school fall here?"
When saying the last sentence, Su Shi Jun turned to Milton, her voice light but her gaze very solemn. This invisible pressure finally prevented the vampire from maintaining his perfect smile.
"Of course not," he chuckled dryly, raising the wine glass in his hand: "I’ve prepared fifty-year-old Amber Light for the celebration banquet... I hope for the school’s victory."
The witch said nothing, merely silently retracted her gaze.
"Legends and non-legends, are two realms." Silent Souls seemingly noticed the vampire’s awkward situation, chuckled, and defended Milton with a few words: "Legends are called legends because they can achieve what big wizards cannot... The Four Seas Demon Ship needs not even the four deans to act, any one vice principal can handle it easily."
"Would the fog be that foolish?" Su Shi Jun retorted, the fox tail behind her swayed slightly in the sunlight, resembling flames dancing on a candle.
Silent Souls felt like his eyes were pricked momentarily, quickly withdrawing his gaze, while secretly admiring the Qingqiu Clan’s astounding talent, he pondered before responding:
"The school and the council have received reliable information... The Sea Demon King is always in a state of sleep, and the Witch Demon King hasn’t left the Land of Desolation. If the fog wants to keep its spoils, does it have other choices?"
Su Shi Jun frowned, similarly confused.
The irreconcilable contradiction between the lack of legendary combat power as a backup and the reckless offensive behavior of the fog, or have they found a way for ordinary wizards to suppress legends?
Besides Forbidden Curses, the witch couldn’t imagine any other way to confront a legend.
Yet, throughout the Wizard World, where else has more Forbidden Curses than First University? She inexplicably thought of that student whose shadow she’d cut off.
No, impossible.
Su Shi Jun shook her head firmly, regardless that Zheng Qing himself was not a complete Forbidden Curse, even if Zheng Qing mastered a complete Forbidden Curse, he is still a student of First University.
Not every red-eyed guy is a demon.
Thinking of Zheng Qing, the witch naturally recalled the incident at the museum yesterday and thought of Poseidon who was currently napping in Greenhill Mansion.
She needs to find time to talk seriously with Zheng Qing, the idea crossed her mind, causing trouble that a first-year student has surpassed even Starry Sky Academy’s fourth-years, this is indeed concerning. She must not regret till Poseidon is led astray due to a failure in early family education.
BOOM!!
A violent tremor traveled from afar through the earth, interrupting the witch’s thoughts.
