Chapter 72 Despicable Frame-up
Suddenly, in the row of red woods ahead, there was a hissing sound of burning flames, followed by the sound of fluttering clothes and a whirring sound from wind magic.
Then, a strong wind with flying sand and rocks came from the woods ahead.
Everyone squinted their eyes and opened them again when the strong wind swept past. They saw a figure wrapped in flames flying over at a high speed. Wherever he flew, the trees next to him were instantly roasted and set on fire.
And behind this flaming figure, there was another figure covered in black and blue.
"Hirano Qiao, you can't escape my wind-based positioning tracking technique, so you'd better quickly use your eighth-level fire magic and fight me to the death." The green figure flying in the sky shouted.
"An Zhier, don't brag. If you have the guts, come and fight me in the hot woods." The red figure escaping in front said.
The two magicians, one chasing the other in the sky, flew at an extremely fast speed and disappeared from everyone's sight in an instant.
Adolf couldn't help but ponder and said, "They are two level eight magicians of the wind and fire systems. I don't know why they are chasing us, but I'm afraid we have already left the range of the Netherworld."
"Then let's speed up and leave. The Warcraft Forest is very dangerous today." Aoli said with a sad smile.
The sky was getting darker and darker, and the trees in the forest were getting denser and denser. Unknowingly, the team led by Aoli completely walked out of the range of the Netherworld, and no longer felt any dead air or black airflow.
At this time, everyone was in a relatively bare mountain area, surrounded by wild trunk forests as high as 100 meters. Large pieces of red and yellow leaves like banana fans hung down, dazzling in the dim red light.
"Captain Aoli, it's dark, why don't we set up a tent here to spend the night, and it won't be too late for us to part when tomorrow morning comes." Adolf said to Aoli.
"It can only be like this." Aoli nodded and said.
Then, the students of the Lieyang Trial took out their tents from their space rings and built them in the mountains. The remaining guard knights of Aoli set up tents in the wild tree forest.
After that, they went out to hunt weak animals at will while it was still light.
Then, bonfires were lit inside and outside the tents, and the trial students and guard knights grilled the meat they hunted.
In the trial team, many Lieyang students began to laugh and chat happily. After surviving the dangers of the netherworld, these fledgling trial students were easily happy.
Luo Dong and Elodie were sandwiched among the trial students, grilling a wild rabbit, but they heard the trial students next to them talking about themselves from time to time, and even Adolf and Som came to talk to Luo Dong. After Luo Dong's deal with the ghouls in the Netherworld and the magic crystal core of the Nine-Headed Lion King, Luo Dong's status as a necromancer has been greatly improved, and the trainees have begun to look at Luo Dong with admiration.
However, a pair of jealous eyes shot from time to time in the distance, that was Sachs's eyes. Luo Dong certainly knew it, but pretended not to know and avoided any contact with Sachs or Jasmine.
Perhaps, in Luo Dong's heart, Jasmine's figure and An Rou were getting farther and farther away, and they could no longer be combined into one.
At this time, he was looking at Elodie with a thoughtful look. Under the red bonfire, Elodie's snow-white face showed a blush, and her narrow and long phoenix eyes showed a faint charm, and she was also staring at Luo Dong who was grilling meat.
"After this Warcraft trial, will you return to Lieyang Magic Academy?" Elodie said.
"Of course, that's the only place I can stay." Luo Dong smiled.
"What about your home?" Elodie said.
"I have no home, no parents, I'm an orphan." Luo Dong shrugged.
"Then how did you meet Jasmine?" Elodi finally said what she wanted to say.
"When I first met Jasmine, she was taking a bath. I mistakenly thought she was my secret crush when I was a child, and that's how I met her." Luo Dong shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Then you still love her now, right?" Elodi's eyes were sad.
"No, I have forgotten her. I began to think she was a passerby. But you are different. I feel very happy and sweet to be with you. I really hope that this bonfire can burn forever." Luo Dong said with his left hand holding his head.
Elodi lowered her face, her cheeks became more and more red, but she didn't know what she was thinking, and she didn't speak anymore.
"Okay, my super-made wild rabbit meat is cooked, let's eat two legs each." Luo Dong laughed excitedly, tore off the roasted rabbit legs and handed them to Elodi.
A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.
"It's the first time I eat your roasted meat. Mm, delicious..." Elodie smiled while chewing the rabbit meat.
...
As night fell, the bonfire outside the tent was mostly extinguished, and people went into their own tents to sleep.
Luo Dong sat cross-legged in his tent, practicing the solid stage of the law of destruction.
Since the successful advancement of the fifth level of necromancy, Luo Dong has been trying to figure out the spells, gestures, and symbols of necromancy, and has almost no time to practice the law of destruction. In fact, since the solid practice reached the later stage, the whole body has been able to train the muscles to be more sensitive, but the golden elixir in the body has never changed. Therefore, Luo Dong has not tried to practice the law of destruction for nearly a month.
Tonight, I was free, so I tried the solid of the law of destruction.
Sitting cross-legged, Luo Dong felt the changes in his muscles, the ups and downs of his pulse, and the beating of his cells. He could clearly sense them in his mind, and at the same time freely controlled the golden elixir energy that turned into earthworms, flowing through every part of his body.
Time passed slowly...
Unfortunately, there was still no sign of a solid breakthrough.
Luo Dong opened his eyes and sighed. It was probably the middle of the night.
Suddenly.
"Ah——"
An extremely miserable voice came from not far to Luo Dong's left.
It sounded like the voice of a student of the earth system in the trial team.
Luo Dong was startled, and he used the wind control technique spontaneously, and his body shot out like an arrow towards the tent.
The sky outside was pitch black, and the night sky could only be seen through with the magic clear eye.
Luo Dong was shocked to see that in the night sky above a tent on the left, it seemed that a huge strange bird flew by, and the trajectory of the strange bird was very mysterious, undulating and flowing quickly, like a wave-shaped sound wave.
Luo Dong wanted to follow it, but he saw the strange bird slipped past mysteriously and disappeared in the black sky.
So, Luo Dong, with doubts, turned and ran to the tent where the screaming sound came from.
When he went in, he saw a corpse of a Lieyang student lying in the tent. His face was bloody and his shape could not be distinguished. There was a big hole in the back of his skull, and white brain was overflowing. It looked horrible and disgusting.
"What happened?" Adolf's voice sounded outside.
"It was the scream of our earth-related student Qi Guori." Som's voice was heard again.
Then there was a long howl from Adolf, and then the sound of running footsteps was heard. A group of Lieyang students chattered and even heard the voices of Jasmine and Sachs asking.
"Did you see that the familiar classmates were not here?" Adolf asked.
"Qi Guori, I didn't see him here." A student said.
"Then let's go to Boston's tent and see what happened?" Adolf said.
Then he heard the footsteps of the crowd approaching the tent where Luo Dong was.
At this time, Luo Dong was wrinkling his nose and staring blankly at the Lieyang student Qi Guori who died suddenly.
Suddenly the tent was opened, revealing Adolf's figure.
"Luo Dong, how come you are here?" Adolf asked.
"I heard screams coming from this tent, so I followed the sound and came in, and then I saw his body." Luo Dong explained.
"Did you see the murderer?" Adolf asked.
"Well, when I heard the screams, I seemed to see a black giant bird flying outside. Its shape and trajectory were very strange, but I couldn't track it, and I couldn't tell whether it was the murderer." Luo Dong said.
"A strange giant bird?" Adolf frowned.
"Teacher Adolf, maybe it's a strange bird made up by someone. I think Qi Guori's death was cruel, very much like the method of a necromancer killing people, and next to his body, there is an evil necromancer standing." Sachs suddenly stood up and said.
Instantly, people inside and outside the tent stared at Luo Dong with suspicious eyes.
"Sax, you want to falsely accuse me of killing me?" Luo Dong stared at Sax fiercely.
"It's a just inference." Sax also stared at Luo Dong fiercely.
"Sax." Jasmine hurriedly tugged at Sax's clothes.
"Humph, I believe everyone knows who I am. I am innocent. I'm leaving here first." Luo Dong walked out of the tent angrily.
The remaining Adolf and Som looked at each other in astonishment, but they knew in their hearts that it was Luo Dong who made a deal with the ghouls today that allowed them to leave alive, and the Nine-Headed Lion King Magic Crystal Core that Aoli got was also brought by Luo Dong, so everyone knew who Luo Dong was, and they had never heard of any hatred between Luo Dong and Qi Guori, so they should believe what Luo Dong said.
However, as a seventh-level earth magician, Qi Guori should be best at ground defense. How could he be killed so easily? There was no sign of fighting in the tent. What terrible thing could it be that could easily kill a seventh-level magician?
