I'm really a necromancer

Chapter 223 Contradictory Rules! (4.3k)

"you……"

While the two were arguing with each other, some apprentices noticed that not far below the two, another two rows of rankings had changed positions.

"Hey, that guy Yihua just got promoted to No.8 not long ago, why did he fall to No.10 again?"

Seeing that Yihua's ranking kept jumping from No.8 to No.10, and there was no hope of going further, a middle-aged third-class apprentice sighed and said disappointedly:

"Hey, I shouldn't bet that Yihua will be in the top three. Judging from the current situation, he may not even be in the top five!"

……

The people in the world of the secret world don't know the outside world's discussion about their points ranking.

At the same time, looking at the information on the stone wall in front of him, Yi Hua frowned.

[The secret world is also divided into day and night, the rotation time is irregular, the night is long, and lumen stones are needed to avoid the attacks of strange forces. The days are short, and lumen stones also have the effect of resisting strange forces! 】

【warn!During the daytime, the lumen stone will be attacked by strange forces!The more lumen energy you hold, the stronger the strange power you will face. If you want to avoid the strange power, you must discard the token! 】

"Something is wrong. How can the information engraved on the stone contradict itself?"

Looking at the two contradictory messages, Yi Hua frowned, realizing something strange about this matter.

"Could it be that the secret world has the function of tampering with the words engraved on the stone?"

Yihua knows very well that the two conflicting messages in front of him must be wrong, and one of them may even bring danger.

Therefore, he must choose carefully and choose the more credible information from the two pieces of information.

"Speaking of which, who left the information on these stones? Is it a fifth-class mentor outside the secret world, or an unknown existence from the secret world itself?"

The purpose of this apprenticeship exam is to collect as many points as possible.

And the second message, asking apprentices to discard tokens, wouldn't that run counter to the purpose of this exam?

From Yi Hua's point of view, the academy undoubtedly wanted as many qualified apprentices as possible in the exam.

Anna's mentor, the fifth-class apprentice "messenger" Rudolph, announced the exam rules under the watchful eyes of everyone. Maybe he concealed the situation in the secret world, but it was almost impossible to harm the apprentices who took the exam.

As for Mr. Rudolph, could he be an undercover agent who secretly betrayed the academy and joined Petain's camp?
Judging from all the previous events, Anna's mentor "Messenger" Rudolph has a close relationship with Yihua's mentor "Death Crow" Simon, and neither of them has a deal with Petain.

Coupled with these low-level apprentices, they may still be of certain value to the academy that is hostile to the Nine Ring White Tower.

Not to mention that "Messenger" Rudolph is unlikely to be with "Bloodmaker" Petain. Even if he really betrayed the Nine Rings White Tower, there is a high probability that he will not slaughter them meaninglessly. Those who joined the Nine Rings White Tower not long ago, A young and lowly apprentice with low strength.

That being the case, the first tip, the reminder to keep the token with lumen stone energy during the day, is probably correct!
And if you choose to abide by the second rule and discard the token, there is a high probability that you will attract attacks from strange forces!
"Master Vice President, what is the situation? The strange power mentioned above..."

Looking at the blood characters engraved on the stone wall in front of him, Li Wei's pupils shrank, and when he saw Yi Hua who was frowning, he came back to his senses and asked boldly.

Hearing Li Wei's question, a ray of light flashed in Yihua's eyes. He did not hide anything, but to the two of them, he directly explained the strange power hidden in the darkness of the secret world.

After Yihua briefly explained some of the information about the secret world that he has obtained so far, Laman, who is a first-class apprentice, said in shock:

"There is such a dangerous power hidden in the dark area of ​​the secret world!"

"It's strange. In the dark area of ​​the secret world, there is a strange power that can easily kill even second-class apprentices. Why didn't Instructor Rudolph mention it to us before the exam started?"

Li Wei frowned, and as he thought more carefully, he thought of doubts about the strange power of the secret world.

Li Wei's question is exactly what Yi Hua's doubts are about.

Although due to the rules of the academy, previous apprentices could not fully inform them about the apprenticeship exams and the specific rules of the secret world.

But before the exam started, Yihua could also know from some of the information obtained from the previous apprentices that in the past apprentice exams, in the dark area of ​​the secret world, there seemed to be no such terrifying and strange power.

Due to insufficient information, Yi Hua led Li Wei and Li Wei to set off again after a short period of thinking to no avail.

"It seems that if we want to find out the source of the strange power with abnormal strength in the secret world, we need to continue the investigation."
-
Not far from where Yihua was, two apprentices whom Yihua was very familiar with appeared.

This is a stream at the edge of the forest, surrounded by colorful and strange plants that the outside world has never seen.

In the stream, there is even more light shining like a galaxy.

Today, however, no one appreciates the beauty around them.

Because at this moment, there are two apprentices fighting in the open space by the stream.

One side is composed of a dozen first- and second-class, young male and female apprentices, and the other side has only two female apprentices, but they are all second-class apprentices.

Due to the large gap in numbers, it seemed that it was only a matter of time before the two apprentices who were surrounded by the other side lost.

Suddenly, just as the two sides were at a stalemate.

A series of torrents of witchcraft made up of fireballs, ice arrows, and hurricanes unexpectedly hit the other party, a young female apprentice who looked more mature and had piercing eyes.

Boom boom boom!
Accompanied by a violent explosion, a cloud of hot black smoke covered the figure of the young female apprentice.

"Senior Sister Sophia!"

Seeing this scene, not far away, another girl apprentice with fiery red hair tied into a ponytail, a pair of blue eyes, and a beautiful face shrank her pupils and subconsciously called out.

"Get rid of one!"

"Anna, you should surrender as soon as possible!"

The apprentice on the other side seemed to know Anna, and called out her name directly.

But Anna, who has sufficient combat experience, and who still holds the half-constructed second-class witchcraft in her hand, did not lose her footing because of this.

Next, she built the second-class witchcraft in her hand at the fastest speed.

On the other side, he opened his mouth to delay the time.

"Don't you know who my mentor is!"

Hearing Anna's words, more than a dozen apprentices on the opposite side looked at each other, and three of the second-class apprentices with higher status sneered and mocked:
"Of course we know that you are the disciple of Master Rudolph, the fifth-class tutor, the 'messenger'!"

"Hmph, so what if you are a disciple of a fifth-class tutor, should you be eliminated in the apprenticeship exam or will be eliminated!"

"That's right, fifth-class mentors can increase your chances of passing the apprenticeship exam at most, but they don't have the right to prevent us from eliminating you!"

As soon as the words fell, under the screen invisible to the naked eye, a large number of crimson energy particles converged towards her, and groups of flame birds danced beside her.

Then, she seized the gap period when the enemy had just released witchcraft, and decisively responded with practical actions.

With her finger pointing, orange-red flame birds scrambled towards more than a dozen apprentices who were tens of meters away.

Under her deliberate control, most of these flame birds target apprentices with weaker enemy shields.

Seeing Anna's sudden attack, the group of apprentices who had been delighted to knock down another apprentice just now were in a panic.

"Oops, it's this trick again!"

"Get out of the way!"

"what!"

Boom boom boom!
Accompanied by violent explosions, clusters of flames appeared at the position where the enemy apprentice was, and a large amount of mud with a burnt smell was splashed.

At the same time, there were bursts of violent coughing from the position where Sophia, who was previously under fire by the enemy, was located.

Hearing the voice, Anna was overjoyed and hurried forward to ask.

"Sister Sophia, are you alright?"

Just when the thick smoke cleared, the clothes were a bit torn, and Sophia showed a somewhat disheveled face. Seeing that Anna cared about herself, she waved her hands and said:
"Anna, I'm fine, the shield just shattered after being attacked."

"What's more, my level of healing witchcraft is not bad in the academy. Even if I am seriously injured, I can still recover from the treatment."

Seeing that Sophia was still in the mood to joke around, Anna also heaved a sigh of relief.

If Yi Hua was present, he would be able to recognize him at a glance.

The young female apprentice with piercing eyes who acted together with Anna was exactly Rudolph's disciple, the same Sophia who came to treat Anna when Anna was seriously injured by bloody hands.

At this moment, three second-class witchcraft suddenly flew out from the place that was still covered by the smoke and dust from the explosion of witchcraft that Anna performed earlier!

Seeing the scene in front of her, Anna's eyes froze, and she recalled the Orb of Life that Yihua gave her earlier.

Realizing that Sophia's shield was broken and she had no time to dodge, she rushed forward decisively, trying to overcome the three second-class witchcraft!

Seeing Anna's almost crazy behavior, Sophia's pupils shrank, knowing that Anna's shield is not in good condition now, and it is impossible to block three second-class witchcraft at the same time.

She panicked, and hurriedly urged:
"Anna leave me alone, run away!"

Hearing Senior Sister Sophia's urging, Anna relied on her trust in Yihua, and did not listen to Senior Sister's words. The thin and slender figure stood unwaveringly in front of Sophia like a majestic mountain.

"Anna! You..."

boom!
Before Sophia finished speaking, three second-class witchcraft bombarded Anna.

Seeing this scene, Sophia's face changed greatly, and her eyes were flushed.

At the same time, the smoke and dust not far away dispersed, revealing the unscathed figures of the three second-class apprentices who had just sneaked up on them.

"Hmph, you deserve it. Surrendering early can save you the pain of flesh and blood!"

"It's a touching scene. Unfortunately, it's only a matter of time before you lose."

"Damn it, the previous blow seriously injured our four apprentices! This is retribution!"

One of the thin second-class apprentices glanced at the three first-class apprentices who were seriously injured to death in Anna's previous blow, and a second-class apprentice, and snorted coldly.

Before the two parties reacted too much, Anna took the initiative to walk out of the smoke and dust produced by the explosion of the previous three second-class witchcraft.

Seeing Anna, who was completely intact in front of her eyes, with a slightly surprised expression on her face, all the apprentices around her were instantly shocked even more intensely than Anna.

"How is it possible! Am I dreaming?"

"Her previous shield has been consumed by us for more than half, how could she block three second-class witchcraft unscathed!"

When all the apprentices were shocked, Sophia was the first to react. She glanced carefully at Anna's figure back and forth. After confirming that Anna was indeed not injured, she said in surprise:
"Anna, you're all right!"

Anna, who came back to her senses, stroked the Orb of Life in her hand. With a flash of her eyes, she instantly regained confidence, and threw another Orb of Life that Yihua had sold to Sophia at the side.

"Senior Sister Sophia, here you are!"

There was no time delay. After Anna took a few seconds to introduce the usage of the Life Orb to Sophia, the remaining apprentices of the enemy also reacted.

Realizing that there was no time for shock, a group of apprentices quickly constructed their sorcery and prepared to attack again.

On the other side, under Anna's explanation, Sophia handed over the defense to the Orb of Life with some doubts, and prepared to stand up for output and fully construct witchcraft to fight back.

After a while, the witchcraft of both sides was successfully constructed, and a series of witchcraft flew to the opposite side alternately.

Boom boom boom!
When the smoke and dust cleared, the enemy had two more apprentices, who were seriously injured and fell to the ground under the attack of Anna and the two, losing their ability to fight.

And Anna and Sophia endured more than a dozen first- and second-class witchcrafts in an instant, and they were unscathed, only half of their life energy was consumed.

With the activation of the second-class light therapy that had already been enchanted in the life orb, the two life armor shields given by the life orb once again returned to their peak state.

And to produce this effect, what is paid is only a little bit of magic power in the life orb!

Sophia, who was shocked by the Orb of Life when she used it for the first time, fixed her gaze on the Orb of Life in her hand. After a while, she said bluntly to Anna who was beside her:
"Is this a magic crystal? There is such a powerful magic crystal! Could it be a third-class magic crystal?"

Hearing Senior Sister Sophia's guess, Anna secretly laughed inwardly, but shook her head on the surface and said:

"No, this is a second-class enchanted crystal."

Hearing Anna's answer, Sophia's pupils shrank. Seeing that Anna didn't seem to be joking, she realized the value of this item.

"The second-class enchanted crystal has such a powerful effect? ​​Junior sister, where did you buy this item? Can you tell the senior sister a little bit?"

Hearing Senior Sister Sophia's question, Anna didn't hide too much when she recalled that Yihua had blatantly sold the Life Orb.

"I don't know exactly who made it, but the two Life Orbs in my hand were sold to me by Yihua."

"It's that apprentice!"

Hearing the name Yi Hua, Sophia's pupils shrank.

She used to boast that she had the top-notch healing witchcraft among the second-class apprentices in the academy.

But the handsome young gray-haired apprentice named Yi Hua actually had a healing ability comparable to hers, or even slightly better than hers.

Later, the other party was able to take out a third-class healing scroll, and at a price that was almost free, completely eradicated the alien power from the bloody hand in Anna's body!

Afterwards, Sophia also heard that Yihua, who was Anna's friend, killed the bloody hand in the next college competition, and even broke into the top three of the competition.

Unexpectedly, Yi Hua once again shocked her through the magical item of Life Orb.

"There are too many monsters in the academy! Fortunately, in the world of secret realms, I shouldn't be shocked by him again."

Just as Sophia was rejoicing in her heart.

A sudden, thick and long pale golden sword energy flashed by, hitting the nine apprentices standing opposite at a terrifying speed that could hardly be caught by the naked eye!
