WTYTIAAN Chapter 154
by VolareChapter 154
Yan Yunqing opened his eyes.
Memories still swirled in his mind, unable to settle for a long time.
He lowered his head, still holding the crown symbolizing the Elf King Sylph in his hand. The interwoven vines and gemstones left white marks on his skin. The passage of a thousand years hadn’t left too many traces on it, but instead polished it to a more dazzling brilliance.
Yan Yunqing couldn’t help but smile.
Yes, people can’t help but smile when they are speechless.
For some reason, even though Regas had said that accepting the crown’s blessing would grant him Sylph’s memories, Yan Yunqing had hoped to explore memories related to the “Sky Descender.” But this crown led him to review the acquaintance and understanding between the Demon King and the Elf.
He used Sylph’s perspective to re-watch how the Demon King tricked the Elf into joining his team.
Yan Yunqing: …
Although, but, the past him was really a bit scummy.
Yan Yunqing put the crown back in its place. He knew without asking that this kind of blessing could only be performed once because his experience pool had increased by a large amount. He figured the game system wouldn’t allow him to repeatedly exploit Sylph’s experience points.
Unfortunately, he still couldn’t find any information about the “Sky Descender.”
Yan Yunqing opened the game forum and looked at the countdown to the internal beta launch, which had been reduced by a large amount again. He felt a little like giving up.
Anyway, the players would be online sooner or later. Maybe when the players came online, he would know what the game company was up to behind the scenes.
Yan Yunqing sighed softly, turned his head, and met Regas’s gaze. “I’m ready.”
“Did you get what you wanted?” Regas asked respectfully.
Yan Yunqing shook his head, paused, and then smiled again, “However, after receiving the blessing, I have some more questions I want to ask Sylph.”
For example…
“…”
“Can you take me to see Lillian?”
…
Yan Yunqing left Selinval. [Selinval’s Longing] could still be used, but it couldn’t open the path to the past and future like the first time it was used. That plain white figure had completely fallen asleep in the river of time, waiting for the next time it bloomed on the branches of the Mother Tree.
Selinval’s Longing, is it really just Selinval’s Longing?
Before leaving, Yan Yunqing took a look at Lillian, confirming that she had completely fallen into a growth-period slumber and would not wake up for the time being.
“Is she really okay like this?”
“His power is too complex and vast, requiring a longer period of slumber. Perhaps the next time you come to Selinval, he will awaken and meet you.”
Yan Yunqing was relieved.
Back at the academy’s camp, Yan Yunqing remembered what he had forgotten when he saw Demetrius.
He forgot to explore the relationship between Demetrius and the other “Demetrius”!
Yan Yunqing quickly opened the quest list. The quest to rescue his companions had been completed, and there was still a side quest [The Mysterious Masked Man and Demetrius] in progress.
Clearly, it belonged to the side quest of [The Missing Companion], but [The Missing Companion] had already been completed. This side quest neither showed failure nor success.
Still in progress… Did this mean he could continue to explore the clues hidden behind this quest?
Yan Yunqing glanced at it. The reward for completing the side quest was average. The dazzling array of props and materials in his backpack made Yan Yunqing look down on this quest a bit.
No, no, no, this idea is too prodigal.
Yan Yunqing dispelled the thought that had popped up and decided to do his best.
If he ran into that “Demetrius” on the street again later, he would continue to follow him to see if he could get any clues.
Robin turned his head and saw Yan Yunqing standing not far away. He was stunned for a moment, and then his face took on an exaggerated expression. His eyes turned into fried eggs, and he rushed towards Yan Yunqing, crying.
“Team leader—”
Yan Yunqing: !
Yan Yunqing was shocked and had nowhere to retreat, so he could only catch Robin’s flying tackle. “What’s wrong with you?”
“Wuwuwu—Team leader, I didn’t see you at the agreed time that day. I thought you were gone too. It scared me to death—”
“As a result, Teacher Walkerly told me that you actually found clues and chased after them alone. That’s too dangerous!”
“Why haven’t you come back? I was really worried about you!” Big spender!
Robin howled, making a lot of noise but without any tears. After howling for a long time without a single tear, Yan Yunqing used a little force to push him away.
“I did find some clues. It was too urgent at the time, so I didn’t have time to contact you.”
“I met a few friends and went to a friend’s house. I came back a little late.”
Yan Yunqing glanced at Demetrius, “Did you all return to the original campsite to wait for me?”
At that time, he followed Demetrius, but the guy disappeared halfway. Yan Yunqing still hadn’t figured out how he disappeared.
Was it a space magic item?
Or simply space magic?
It was just that this type of magic was extremely rare, and space magic items were very precious, especially those that could be carried around. They were basically consumables, and the forces behind people who could afford them were definitely not small.
At first, Yan Yunqing didn’t think about this.
Now thinking about it, Demetrius was full of contradictions.
“Yes.” Robin said the answer Yan Yunqing wanted to hear without any awareness, “I came back first at that time, and Demetrius followed back later. We waited for you for an hour, almost thinking that something had happened to you too, team leader.”
“What do you mean ‘too’?” William complained from the side.
Robin glanced at him, “You were captured by those hooded people from the Eternal God Sect. Isn’t that an accident?”
William was silent.
Robin continued to poke his sore spot: “We’re already in the outer training forest. Except for teammates, everyone else is an opponent. How could you be so stupid as to believe someone from another team who came to ask for help!”
“If they were really stuck in the swamp, they should have sent out a distress signal and waited for the teacher to rescue them. What’s the use of looking for you, a kid?”
William was annoyed: “Why don’t you talk about Rowena! She also believed that Agana!”
Robin smiled awkwardly: “Dare I? She’s my sister. She’ll beat me up.”
William gritted his teeth: “Then shut up. Are you not afraid I’ll beat you up too?”
Robin sized William up, and the meaning in his eyes didn’t need Robin to explain it himself. Everyone else understood it immediately.
You?
William was furious: “Robin!!!”
Yan Yunqing watched the two of them bickering and looked around, not seeing Rowena’s figure. “Where’s Rowena? Is she injured?”
Robin took time out from bickering with William to reply to Yan Yunqing, “She’s over there. She didn’t suffer any serious injuries, just some superficial wounds. She’ll be fine after a few days of rest.”
Yan Yunqing looked in the direction Robin was pointing and finally found Rowena. She was wearing a heroic outfit with her greatsword on her back, talking to a girl in a magic robe with her back to them.
The girl had delicate features and always had a smile on her face when she spoke. It seemed like she was talking to Rowena about something fun. Her eyes were curved, very quiet and beautiful.
Was that Rowena’s friend?
Yan Yunqing felt a little curious. Rowena didn’t have many friends in the academy. Most of them were from the Swordsman Academy. He hadn’t heard that she had other friends in the Magic Academy?
Perhaps sensing Yan Yunqing’s gaze, the girl looked in Yan Yunqing’s direction, and the two’s eyes met.
She friendly curved her eyes at Yan Yunqing, showing a faint smile.
Very beautiful.
But a strange emotion suddenly arose in Yan Yunqing’s heart, and a voice in his heart clamored to get close to the other person.
Yan Yunqing frowned, looked away, and did not follow the thoughts in his heart to strike up a conversation, feeling that this matter was a bit strange.
Yan Yunqing glanced at the girl again with the corner of his eye and found that the other person’s gaze was still fixed on his direction. The uneasiness in his heart gradually spread, and Yan Yunqing wrote down the name above the other person’s head.
Isle.
Avoid her if you meet her in the future. This is probably a succubus with succubus blood. It’s better to be careful.
He didn’t want to be tricked for no reason.
Huh, why did he feel like he forgot something again?
*
The outer training ended hastily. This time, because many students had encountered accidents and too many teams were involved, the results of this outer training were not counted.
Yan Yunqing’s [One Shot to Fame (2)] failed to complete and showed failure.
This was his first failed quest. He lost hundreds of experience points and added a random debuff [Terrible Luck], lasting 48 hours.
During these two days, Yan Yunqing had bad luck with everything. He almost blew the roof off the classroom during the magic combat class because of a magic surge.
Teacher Lucy: …
Teacher Lucy supported her forehead with a headache. “Your magical talent is the best I’ve ever seen in a student, but relatively, your magical talent makes it so that as long as you use a thought, the magic elements around you start to surge.
“To give you an analogy, these magic elements that are close to you are like your children. As soon as you give an order, these little cuties rush up shouting ‘Mommy, Mommy’.” Teacher Lucy made a joke, “They all want to do things for you, but the magic you use requires only a few magic elements, so they start arguing and fighting.”
“If you don’t control them well, it will easily cause an elemental riot – which is often said to be a magic surge.”
Yan Yunqing:.
He understood all of this, but did they have to rush up calling “Mommy, Mommy”? Couldn’t they call “Daddy”?
But Yan Yunqing was sensible enough not to ask this question.
After all, he didn’t want to be stared at by the flamboyant Teacher Lucy with eyes that said, “Why don’t you understand my humor?”
And he wasn’t unable to control these magic elements. This magic surge was purely because he failed the quest and was randomly given a debuff, making him unlucky recently.
“I don’t have any good methods here for the time being. I need to take you to see a great magician and let him teach you how to control these little cuties.” Teacher Lucy said, “Coincidentally, didn’t I tell you before? I wanted to introduce you to a teacher. He doesn’t often return to the academy, and even I can only see him once every few years.”
Her smile was very bright, and she patted Yan Yunqing’s shoulder hard: “You’re so lucky. You’ll be able to see that teacher after only being enrolled for this amount of time!”
“Let’s go. Let me take you to see that teacher.”
Yan Yunqing was also curious about who the great magician Teacher Lucy was talking about was. Following Lucy’s footsteps for a long time, they climbed up to the attic of a bell tower after many twists and turns.
Before knocking on the door of this attic, Yan Yunqing had lost hope for this great magician. After seeing the familiar person, Yan Yunqing’s eyes died.
“Your Excellency Ambrosius!” Lucy respectfully saluted the white-bearded old man and revealed Yan Yunqing, who was standing behind her, “This is the magical student I told you about before who is very talented.”
Then Lucy turned her head and gently introduced to Yan Yunqing: “This is Your Excellency Ambrosius, from that magical family that has been passed down for many years. You know, right? Merlin, the great founding principal of our Sigrit Academy, came from that legendary magic family.”
Yan Yunqing looked at Lucy, and then at the old man sitting there smiling without saying a word.
Good fellow, Merlin, did you set your fake identity as your own descendant?
