Things about the female knight in black stockings

"A flame without magic power needs three things to keep burning."

Valencia continued:

“The first is temperature, the second is air, and the third is combustibles.

All fire-fighting methods we know are actually based on these three points.

Just like water-attribute magic cannot actually restrain fire-attribute magic, water cannot restrain fire.

The reason why the rainfall spell can quickly extinguish most flames is because the specific heat of water is higher... Well, when the amount is the same, the cooling effect of water is the most obvious.

In addition, the liquid water can effectively isolate the air, and at the same time, after soaking the combustibles, the heat required for burning the combustibles will be greater, further blocking the spread of fire.

Being able to attack the three conditions for maintaining combustion at the same time is the reason why water easily extinguishes fire, and it is also the reason why most people believe that water can defeat fire.

However, when facing some flames with special combustibles or accelerants, the contact between water and combustibles or accelerants will often cause new reactions, either making the fire more intense or producing more dangerous explosions and toxic smoke. This is also the most dangerous aspect of the Reveler Flint.

Firestone doesn't like some revelers who like to send out warning letters before doing something. Many of the fires he creates are no different from ordinary fires at first, until people find that conventional fire extinguishing methods are not effective, and it is too late to change countermeasures... …By that time the fire had formed.

Of course, if there are powerful elemental mages, no fire will cause waves... Under the cover of high-level ice magic that freezes everything, there will be no temperature that can cause combustion.

Therefore, Firestone's targets are usually small villages and towns where no strong men are stationed. The only time they chose to attack a city was a small border town, and it was finally beaten away by brave adventurers...

Ahem, it seems a bit far-fetched, let’s continue talking about putting out fires.

Without a strong person sitting in charge, it is indeed difficult to deal with a large fire that is not afraid of water, but it is not completely impossible.

The idea is the same... Starting from cooling, isolating air and combustibles can also effectively block the spread of fire.

There are many ways to do it, depending on the skills each person has mastered... There are two ways that I can think of and can barely implement.

One is to create a barrier, whether it is a holy light barrier, a magic barrier, or an alchemy prop. Use the barrier to isolate the flame from the outside world. When the air in the barrier is burned and exhausted, the flame will naturally extinguish.

In fact, this was how Firestone was stopped when he tried to burn down the city... Many magicians from the Adventurer's Guild and the Guard used magic barriers to prevent the fire from spreading at the cost of their lives.

This method is the most effective, but not everyone can use the enchantment, and many times the huge fire cannot be easily covered by a single enchantment. At this time, the second method is used, which is to remove flammable materials. .

Before the flames spread, destroy and clean up the surrounding combustibles first. This is not as efficient as casting a barrier, but it is still effective. "

"Ugh..."

After finishing a long sentence in one breath, Valencia paused and then tilted her head slightly towards Xio:

"My answer is over, are you still satisfied, Teacher Xiu?"

"...Satisfied, so satisfied."

Xio looked at Valencia and was silent for a long time, then sighed helplessly:

"I'm so unconvinced... When I first heard other teachers say that the chief of this first-year class is probably the most talented elite soldier in a century, I didn't agree... because when I was in school, I was also the chief and the chief of the elite soldier department. A genius in the eyes of teachers.

But now I'm convinced... When I was in first grade, my fighting ability may not be weaker than yours, but I definitely didn't have your outstanding awareness and cognition.

The fact is that even most of the top soldiers on active duty don’t understand the nature of fire as well as you... Most of what you said before were lesson plans I prepared in advance... As a result, before I had a chance to say it, I was almost beaten by you. All told.

To be honest, if I weren't quite confident in my own strength and alertness, I would have doubted whether you sneaked into my room last night and peeked at my lesson plan..."

"Teacher Xiu, you deserve the award~~"

Valencia quickly lowered her head in a shy manner:

"These are just nonsense based on my personal understanding and speculation. They are definitely incomparable to the lesson plans you carefully prepared, teacher. Please be sure to guide us well."

"..."

Xio didn't say anything. He just took out the pile of information he had prepared and flipped through it for a while, then he closed it with a helpless sound and put it aside.

This lesson plan is not as good as what Valencia just said. Forced guidance will only be used by students to compare with Valencia's answers, which will embarrass themselves.

That’s nonsense.

Xio directly took out the third magic crystal:

"Next, let's take a look at what the student with the No. 3 score has done... Well, the student with the No. 3 score is an international student from the Four Islands Alliance, Chiba-san."

"What? Didn't I just take third place?"

Qianyecao immediately stood up in disbelief:

"Isn't this impossible? Teacher Xiu, are you making a mistake? I'm only third...then what kind of monsters are the top two?"

Chapter 159 It’s like a zombie movie scene

"Oh? I'm still not satisfied after taking No. 3. It seems that Chiba-kun is very confident."

Regarding Qianyecao's surprise, Xio chuckled:

"Indeed, Qianyecao-san has caused a lot of damage to the virtual city, and her score is only a little bit behind No. 2... If you hadn't been too careless in the end, you should have been able to get second place."

"emmm..."

Qianye Cao obviously knew where her final problem was. She gritted her teeth unwillingly and stamped her little feet in the fishnet stockings:

"Damn it... If I had known better, I wouldn't have slept so much... I really didn't expect that the dummy in the dream could be so smart..."

"I can only blame Cao Cao for not paying attention before the test."

Valencia added insult to injury in a very gentle tone:

"Didn't Teacher Xiu say that before the test? Although the characters in the fantasy are all fake, their various reactions when facing events are very real... Who can you blame if you are careless?"

"Woooooooooooooo..."

Qianyecao pouted and sat back, and made a brave face:

"Anyway, sister, you must be one of the top two, right? I didn't expect that Cao Cao would lose again this time... But this time it was just Cao Cao and I was careless. Next time Cao Cao will definitely beat you! A little bit~~"

"This is just a small test, don't take it seriously."

Valencia smiled and blinked again:

"And what I promised Cao Cao before is still valid. Cao Cao, you entered the top three and you can get a reward from me... So instead of reflecting on where you lost, Cao Cao, why don't you think about how I can reward you?" ?”

"Eh? Sister, do you really want to reward me?"

The dim green eyes suddenly lit up again. Qianyecao twisted her body excitedly, leaving behind the humiliation of only taking third place in the test:

"Okay, okay...Then I have to think carefully about what reward I should get...hehe?~~"

"You...tsk, forget it, you can just be happy."

Xio just sighed at the conversation between the two, without making too many comments, and directly activated the magic crystal:

"Then, let's see together what Chiba-san has done that would make her even more dissatisfied even if she won No. 3."

In front of the classroom, the projection condensed and formed, and the picture gradually became clearer.

A girl with green hair and emerald eyes wearing a one-piece mesh Taima Ninja uniform was running fast on the street, flying over walls and over obstacles from time to time, and even occasionally using people's heads as pedals, but she didn't attract any attention.

Hidden Leaf Technique.

The students who watched the projection quickly understood that Qianyecao was in a state of invisibility at this time, and people on the street could not see her at all.

But he turned on stealth as soon as he came up... Could it be that he wanted to assassinate?

But this running direction is not the center of the city where the big shots live, right?

Most people looked puzzled, but Valencia's eyes lit up.

Having dueled twice with Chiba, she knew very well where Chiba was most dangerous, and she could probably guess Valensa, the target of Chiba in the projection.

Sure enough, after passing through a residential area with increasingly higher terrain, Qianyecao stopped by a turbulent river in the north of the city.

This place is located in the upper reaches of the river, and the lower reaches of the river run through the entire city. Most of the people in the city's domestic water comes from this river, and many underground water veins in the wells are also connected to this river.

Chiba stood by the river for a while, then took out two small bottles without hesitation and poured all the liquid in the bottles into the river.

Poisoned.

Just as Valencia had just guessed.

Although the Hidden Leaf Technique and Sowing Seeds into a Forest are powerful, they all have ways to deal with them. On the contrary, the two quenchings of the Thousand Leaf Grass on the weapons brought a lot of trouble to Valencia.

Fortunately, those two times were just duels. If it was a life and death battle, the poison quenched by the Thousand Leaf Grass would not increase the pain and unbearable itching, but seal the throat with blood. It is hard to say whether Valencia is alive now.

This is the most threatening thing about Chiba in Valencia's mind, and it is also one of the main reasons why Valencia will try to repair the relationship with Chiba and truly become friends.

The poisons prepared by those ninjas are indeed powerful, and most of them are not even afraid of medium and low-level magical purification.

If such a ninja wants to go crazy and kill, poisoning is definitely the most effective way.

This is also true, and the poison that Thousand Leaf Grass poisons water sources is more powerful than everyone imagined.

The poison begins to take effect in a large area about two hours after the Thousand Leaf Grass is dropped. The poisoned person will not die immediately or lose mobility, but will become particularly excited and aggressive, like a human-shaped powder keg. If stimulated, it will enter a state of rage, beating and biting like a mad dog.

Not only that, people bitten by the poisoned person will also be poisoned, even faster than drinking river water.

No matter what kind of poisoning, the person will either be beaten to death by others because of random bites, or he will bleed to death after exhausting his energy.

Under the raging influence of this terrible poison, the fantasy city once turned into a zombie movie scene. The whole city fell into chaos, and a large number of nobles fled in panic.

In just one day, Qianyecao poisoned the fantasy city and caused chaos in the fantasy city... If the fantasy city is still in this state in the next two days, there is absolutely no problem that Qianyecao's performance will surpass Valencia.

Unfortunately, there is no such thing.

The river water will flow, and no matter how powerful the poison is, it will be diluted in the river water over time, and its effect will become weaker and weaker.

In fact, after the peak poisoning period in the afternoon of the first day, the river water was basically harmless. Many people who drank the river water at night had no serious problems except for a slight stomachache.

And she probably didn’t have much of that terrible poison Thousand Leaf Grass. Except for the two bottles she put in at the beginning, she never added any more.

Maybe she didn't have the poison anymore, or maybe she was too confident... because just the two bottles dropped on the first day plunged the city into turmoil on the verge of destruction.

So for the next two days, Qianyecao didn't try any harder, but found a place with a good view, either sleeping in the sun or eating snacks and watching the excitement.

She focused her attention on those hopeless poisoners and all kinds of bad human nature exposed in the face of crisis. She watched with relish and ignored many details.

Many settings of the fantasy city are modeled after the real city of the Kingdom of France, including the medical level of its civilization.

There is still a gap between modern medicine and Valencia's previous life, but there are also outstanding doctors like Suzuran in the fantasy city.

They spent sleepless nights researching and successfully extracted the poison's antibodies from a few survivors who had resisted the poison, and developed an antidote that, although it had serious side effects, could be mass-produced quickly and take effect quickly.

So starting from the afternoon of the second day, the poisoned people were cured one after another, and by the third day, the chaos caused by Thousand Leaf Grass was completely quelled.

Chapter 160 Drink more hot water

"You are so careless, Cao Cao."

As the magic projection recording Chiba's behavior in the virtual city ended, Valencia smiled and looked at Chiba, who was lying on the table with a pout:

"Your poison is indeed powerful, but there are also excellent doctors among humans, and not all nobles will abandon the people and run away when they encounter disaster."

The chaos caused by Qianyecao poisoning the water source will be completely quelled on the third day. In addition to the doctors who spend all night studying the medicine, a few nobles with real wisdom and sense of responsibility are also indispensable.

When the chaos occurred, these nobles did not flee in a hurry like other nobles, but actively organized manpower to isolate, control and inspect the poisoned people, and investigate the source of the chaos.

They quickly found out that there was a problem with the river water, so they called on the people not to drink the river water for the time being, and used their wealth to provide a large amount of water magic crystals as a replacement.

After Qianyecao found out on the third day that her plot had been destroyed, it was useless to poison the water source. She could only use invisibility to assassinate some more people in frustration until the test time was over.

Fortunately, the poison of millet leaf grass is indeed very powerful. Even though the peak period of the outbreak is only half a day, the number of deaths caused exceeds Ryan's three consecutive days of cutting and Herleman's all-night fire, which is why she was so confident before.

"What a pity, Cao Cao."

The way Chiba was pouting out of reluctance was very cute. When Valencia saw this, she once again added insult to injury and chuckled:

"If you can take some precautions and assassinate those capable doctors and nobles earlier, at least your grades will be better than mine. In fact, your current grades are almost the same as mine. It's such a pity. You missed it." You have a good chance to win against me~~"

"Hmmmmmmmm..."

This fact made Qianye Cao even more shocked. She wanted to slam the table to vent, but she didn't want to ruin her cute character, so she could only pouted higher and twisted around on her seat.

"Okay, chief student, please stop bullying Qianye Cao."

Xio finally couldn't stand Valencia's bad intentions anymore:

"If you have this intention to cause harm, why don't you analyze the case of Qianyecao? If the place you are responsible for encounters such a disaster, how will you deal with it and how will you prevent it?"

"This……"

You really think I understand everything, right?

Valensa rolled her eyes at Xio rudely, and then fell into deep thought... She really didn't have much to do about the strange poison of Thousand Leaf Grass.
