Chapter 195 Consciousness
The night gradually became thicker, and the chaos in the college continued
Looking at the horizon of the city of Katris in the distance from the tree-lined avenue, the sky was completely covered by night, and the bright white moon and the moon stones scattered nearby occupied the sky. But on this side, the red flame color had not yet faded, and the sky was illuminated as if it was evening.
The sky, like a jewelry box inlaid with gems, seemed to be broken suddenly, and the entire area ushered in a not-stable night. It seemed to be to suppress this commotion, everything was silent, making the entire college look different from the daytime.
This was a panic that Katris Academy had never experienced before. Although the vitality of the entire college city was damaged, it was not yet on the verge of dying. It seemed that I could not wait to put it to death. The aliens lurking in the underground all over the place woke up one after another and were ready to move in the night.
In the academy in the night, there are spells from different camps active everywhere. They exposed their different sides, used their knowledge and skills to fight, and used all their strength to tear the enemies that appeared in front of them into pieces with violent spells.
"This is probably the first time I've seen you, Jon Fried."
Standing on the boulevard in the corner of the college, Curt looked at Jon with a smile and said, "Although you are now under the command of the 'Eye of True Vision', I still don't know if you have the awareness of blood staining your hands. While everything is still too late, I have some questions to ask you."
Jon seemed a little nervous when he heard what the sick young man said in front of him. After all, he didn't know much about the mercenary named Curt Leinster. Apart from being Liqi's brother, there was only a little information given to the person ordered by the organization to the man who was ordered by his magic.
The mercenaries under the Mercenary Management Office may be different from mercenaries in the traditional sense. Although they are armed forces of militia, they will also accept assistance and commissions from ordinary citizens. Unlike magicians, they are a group that is closer to ordinary people. Among them, the Tie level is awarded the title of mercenaries with certain levels and experience, and is a position that is neither up nor down.
Curt claimed to be an iron-level mercenary, and the badge he took out also showed that he was not talking nonsense, but this made Jon feel incredible. He was just one of the huge number of iron-level mercenaries. He really couldn't understand how those above were interested in him and Liqi.
So now, this answer has been answered somewhat. It is not without reason that the eyes of True Vision pay attention to these two people, but they seem to be one step slower.
So in the face of the seemingly kind-hearted communication of the mercenary in front of him, Jon could only speak silently. He was not sure whether this sick young man was as "full of kindness" as he showed.
Ignoring Jon's silence, Curt smiled and began to continue the conversation unilaterally: "Although it's not a complicated question, I still hope you can answer it truthfully... So the first question, Jon Fried, what do you value the most?"
The question and answer began. However, Jon stared at Curt silently. The young Chinese mercenary still had a gentle smile on his face, and there was no fluctuation in his godless eyes.
This question is not unanswered, but Jon is unwilling to answer. He exposes his weaknesses to others and then threatens them with this as a handle. He has endured such a life for a long time. Even fools will not entrust the same handle to another group of people.
"Don't you want to tell me? OK OK, it doesn't matter if you don't say it. If you don't want to say it, just stay silent."
Curt smiled indifferently, and then raised the next question: "I don't know what the background they are the "Eye of True View" was born in. But their behavior is undoubtedly a violation of the law. Since you decide to join them, you may be thrown into prison and lose your freedom. Or in some unreasonable battles, you will accidentally lose your life."
Can you understand this Curt looked at Jon and asked.
"I know."
The young apprentice nodded reluctantly. If it weren't for some special reason, he certainly did not want to be a member of an organization with a group of madmen.
"That is to say, your left foot has been stepped on the iron window of the prison, and your other foot is actually stepped on the grave. Even so, do you firmly believe in the path you are taking, and do you not hesitate to become a group of lunatics and sacrifice your life in order to protect the things you value?"
Curt seemed to have expected the boy to give such an answer. After getting the expected answer, he continued to attack Jon with the question without changing his face.
"This, well...yes."
Everything is to protect those important things, and Jon has always used this reason to persuade himself. Therefore, he can only give a positive answer. Even if he is not sure whether the other party will abide by this agreement, he can only obey in order to avoid possible facts.
It seemed as if he was disliked by Jon's reaction, and even Liqi, who was concentrating on driving the spell, couldn't help but say "It's so stupid" to express her disdain.
"Then, the next question." After hearing Liqi's disdainful comment, Curt suddenly raised the corner of his mouth and smiled strangely. "Jon Jon Fried, are you aware of putting important things in danger and waving weapons at those who threaten you?"
Jon was really asked about this question, and he needed to think about it carefully. Now Curt and his behavior are indeed preparing to attack the Eye of True Vision. With his ability, he obviously cannot hinder their plans at all, but if he joins them, it will be another situation.
Jon's family is not wealthy, of course it is quite far from poverty. It is a single-family building that is only hundreds of meters away from the residential area where the Slots gather. Jon was born there. His father was a Slots and his mother was an Osatalian of imperial descent.
When my father was in his hometown, he seemed to be a member of a gangster gang. When the war that swept the world occurred, the Slot area was also in turmoil. The final result was that my father escaped from the organization and fled to Osatalia and opened an ordinary restaurant on the street.
He is the oldest child in the family, so he also often helps his parents work or takes care of other people in the family. The family lives a simple and warm life. He will never forget the expression of his family when he learns that he has the qualities of becoming a magician. It is a smile that is happy from the heart.
At that time, he had no idea what trouble this would cause in the future. He could master new knowledge every day he studied in the academy. He believed that he could change the life of the family through his own efforts. Until one day, he met a weird person who claimed to be from the Eye of True Vision.
Just after being tortured by spells, Jon had a relationship with this organization. For him, everyone in the organization of True Vision Eye is a group of madmen. It is filled with zealots who kill without blinking, and there are more people who are controlled like him.
That organization was definitely not where he should be, he knew this clearly. His father once recalled the old things he had lived in a gang of gangs before. When talking about the kind of life that was in danger every day, as if dancing on the tip of a knife, the pain on his father's face still vividly remembered.
Just like him now, he actually wanted to help the group of madmen attack the academy and destroy it in it. This was simply a way for him to destroy his hard-won life with his own hands.
So he took a deep breath, nodded and said, "I'm already awakened."
Because the Eye of True Vision is not trustworthy at all, Liqi is right. Believing that submitting to them can bring about a stable life is simply a dream.
"very good."
Curt clapped his hands, then turned his head to look into the direction of the Silver Ray Tower.
Although most of the magicians under the academy have won phased victories in the areas where they are stationed, these guards have been successfully dispersed by the Eye of True View. There is no doubt that after the end of the last battle, most of them were exhausted and unable to rush to other locations.
The research area where the Silver Tower is located is still roaring in battle, and the light of various magics is constantly flashing. Obviously, after dividing most of the academy's garrison forces in various places, the Eye of True Vision invested the most elite troops when attacking the area centered on the tower.
But no matter whether it was the academy that had not yet gained a chance to breathe, or the True Vision Eye that was pursuing it, no one on both sides of the war noticed that the forces of the third party suddenly entered the battle situation. On the boulevard leading from the medical building to the Yin Yao Tower, deep darkness was gathering.
This is the prelude to the coming of disaster. Even the turbulent foreign object was afraid of it, and he hid and shivered without fear.
The darkness on the tree-lined avenue has never been so heavy, and even the flashing fires began to be suppressed by them. The shadows centered on Liqi are like living creatures, becoming the extended limbs of this girl. Her magic eroded all the lights around her and then turned them into part of the shadows.
"What kind of spell is this? Could it be a shadow shaping?" Jon Fried looked at the shadows around him becoming active under the fingertips of Liqi. The magic around him made him feel a little uncomfortable, "And this magic should not be a form of human magic!"
He looked around vigilantly, and the shadows hoarded around them were like tides, moving one after another. These virtual images had corresponding entities under the continuous filling of the magic power released by Liqi, making Jon, who was in it, feel as if he was surrounded by the tide.
Darkness rises like a tide, something dangerous is coming soon. (To be continued...)
