The Dean Has Arrived

Text Chapter 280: The World of the Chessboard (4)

"There is no sun, why is it so hot?"

Walking with one foot deep and one foot shallow on the soft sand dunes, Riddle raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead to prevent it from flowing into his eyes, while muttering unceasingly.

"Maybe it's because the fire element is particularly active?" Kamiyu put his hands on his eyes, looking out, "I've been walking for almost an hour. If you can't find the target quickly, let's ignore that strange fruit, Fatty It's going to be human..."

Tanis no longer had the intention to refute Kamiyu, the scorching heat made him suffer like torture, and now he can only stick out his tongue and wheeze like a dog.

"Miss Alisa, can't you get some water to quench Mr. Tanis' thirst?"

Alice couldn't bear to ask Alisa who was walking in the front. They had already finished drinking the water they carried, and the water bags were empty.

"There's too little moisture in the air, it's very troublesome to gather it up. Elemental water is fine, but you can't drink that..." Alyssa could only find time to turn around and say with a wry smile.

In fact, from the very beginning, the girl has maintained a weak magic output, using the principle of ice magic to create a low-temperature air around her, and then if Tio beside her uses the breeze magic to act as an air conditioner, I am afraid that several people will have heatstroke up.

At this time, Kamiyu's eyes suddenly lit up, pointing forward and shouting: "There is an oasis there!"

"It can't be a mirage again... woo, I've had enough..." Dorothy said with a pale face.

Before that, they had encountered this phenomenon twice in a row.

But Tio, who was walking in front of her, turned her head and said softly: "It's true. The wind element brought back the taste of water."

Before anyone else could react, Tanis, who was already half-dead, was like a wolf, howling and rushing towards the oasis that was partially visible due to the heat.

"It's too reckless to run over like this..." Alyssa didn't have time to stop, and in the end she could only run over with the others.

Fortunately, there seems to be no problem in the oasis. There are no other students ambushing, and there are no monsters inhabiting it.

The area of ​​this oasis is not large, it is only about the size of a circular flower bed that is commonly seen at three-way crossings. Apart from sparse shrubs and a pool, there is only one... coconut tree?

"Why are there coconut trees in the desert?"

Kamiyu walked around the tree twice in a speechless manner, and then suddenly realized: "Could it be!"

"Well, this should be 'the last hair of a bald man'."

Alisa looked at the untimely coconut tree and came to the same conclusion.

"Then we'll just have to pull it out, right?"

Tanis and Riddle, who had drank a lot of water, lay sprawled on the ground, and joined the conversation with a contented expression.

There is a spring in the pool that is constantly bubbling water out. It is not the kind of stagnant water full of bacteria, so there is no problem even if you drink a little.

Alice also filled the empty water bag with joy, while Dorothy was washing herself who was dusty from the wind and sand.

Tio stared at the ground of the coconut tree for a while, then quietly pulled Alisa's sleeve.

"The ground near the coconuts has been turned." The little girl looked at the blue coconuts on the coconut tree with a serious face, as if she was thinking about whether they should be eaten or not. Said to Alisa.

The corners of Alisa's eyes twitched, and she picked a coconut with the hands of a magician as if nothing had happened, and when she handed it to the little girl, she nodded slightly to show that she understood.

At the same time, Tanis, who was about to take a bath in the pool just now but was rejected by Dorothy, also looked up at the sky, as if absent-mindedly drew a representative figure on the soft sand that Alisa could just see. The 'stalking' sign.

The girl calmed down, relying on the increase in perception of the equipment on her body, she also noticed something was wrong—in addition to the mage's eye that had been following them from the beginning, there was another mage's eye.

What Tio and Tanis wanted to tell her was that someone had already been here, pulled out the coconut tree, and found some clues, but because they didn't see the code words of the wooden platform and there were no fruits, they couldn't solve the problem. Mystery, those people have not left at this time, they are ambushing somewhere, watching them with the eyes of a mage or other methods!

The reason why I didn't tell Kamiyu and them was probably because I felt that they couldn't hold their breath. After knowing it, the expression on their faces would definitely be unnatural, and they might be seen as flawed. In that case, there would be no room for slowing down, and we had to face it head-on. Another group of people attacked.

She wouldn't be so naive as to think that the other party had been in ambush for so long, just to shake hands with them and chat for a while...

While instructing Riddle and the others to use magic to pull out the coconut tree, Alisa quietly made a gesture of "Be alert and prepare to cast a spell".

Because you don't know the opponent's strength, it's not a good thing to provoke a fight rashly. Even if the opponent's strength is not good, it is not impossible to entangle them. In that case, if the time limit of more than one hour passes, the golden fruit will rot If it turns into ashes, they are equivalent to making a trip in vain, and all the sufferings before are all in vain...

So the best choice for them at present is to continue to pretend that they don't know anything, take out the badge of freedom while resisting the opponent's sneak attack, and take the opportunity to escape!

It's just that it's unknown whether the reality will go as smoothly as Alyssa expected.

——Guest House——

"I didn't expect them to find out."

Xi Wei expressed admiration: "I almost couldn't help reminding them just now."

"Are you referring to the group of little ghosts hiding underground?" Although sometimes a little dull, but as the 'original' great magician at the end of the Great Migration Era, Feite is still very keen in many aspects: "Little Tio If there is no way to detect the wind element, then it must be underground, and the little fat man has a good affinity for the earth element, and he can perceive the strangeness of the earth element in such a short time."

"Because they are all my students, this level is normal!"

Xi Wei was complacent for a while like a foolish father showing off his child's test scores, and then stood up: "If that's the case, I can clean the room with peace of mind."

Feite staggered and almost fell from mid-air.

"What? Clean the room?" She looked at the serious Xi Wei in surprise.

"It doesn't take much time. From the very beginning, the Mage Association arranged the accommodation for the participants of the evaluation meeting at the edge of the city where even if something happened, it would not have much impact on Hohenheig itself, and the so-called After the interference force substance is turned into a potion that can be destroyed..." Xi Wei held a bottle of interference force potion between his fingers, and shook it to Fett: "I've already guessed that such a thing will happen—or at first, it will happen. It counts in the assessment of the leading teacher, I am right, Mr. Clerk."

The quill that had been placed next to the potion washbasin from the beginning floated up automatically, and wrote on the side of the paper, 'You are worrying too much, Mr. Edric. '

At the same time, two magicians wearing black robes without any imprints had already melted the gate of the guest house into a puddle of brown liquid, and quietly came to this not-so-large building...
