Chapter 109 The Thunder of Defeat
Chapter 109 The Thunder of Defeat
Seeing that Lei Yuan's attack failed, the audience burst into exclamations and all eyes fell in the direction of Shui Yuan.
It was simple, they seemed to have just seen this scene.
Jiang Liujing, who became the focus of attention: "..."
Just very innocent.
Although the results are similar, the process is obviously different.
At this time, the seniors from the Fire Academy excitedly said to the depressed first-years, "Look, you're not the only ones who can't hit anyone!"
Their expressions were quite relieved. "Thank goodness, thank goodness. It seems that we are not the only one to be embarrassed this year."
The freshmen of the Fire Academy: "..."
But is this consolation?
Why does it feel like I've been shot in the heart again?
After a brief joke, everyone started discussing how Guangyuan did it.
They had never used this method in previous years, and it was a new tactic that appeared out of nowhere.
"Do they all know the same magic as Jiang Xuedi?" someone from the Water Academy speculated, then shook their head in disbelief and rejected the idea. "That's impossible."
Wen Xun on the court also clearly felt that it was impossible. But his thunderbolt had indeed failed. Why was that?
Jiang Liujing's magic at least made them dodge, but these people from Guangyuan didn't even move.
Jiang Liujing stared intently for a while, and suddenly noticed a slight fluctuation.
Looking carefully, all the students of Guangyuan were still standing there, but their motionless postures looked strange.
He suddenly noticed a tiny detail and asked Meimei beside him, "Did they blink?"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the audience was shocked.
The quick-witted people immediately realized what was going on and clapped their hands, saying, "It's an illusion!"
Illusions usually take two forms. One is to create an illusion to pull people in. The illusion cannot cause physical death, but it can cause people to have a mental breakdown. The other is to create an illusory entity that confuses vision, making it difficult for people to distinguish the real body.
Although they still seem to be there, they may have already left that place.
"Such unconventional spells are actually known to freshmen. What kind of monsters are they this year?" Everyone was amazed.
Illusion is a very rare type of light magic. Its strange effects, different from those of conventional magic, make it appear very powerful. However, just like mutation magic, only a few talented people can learn it.
When he was in Ernst, Jiang Liujing had already witnessed Madam Xue's illusion, so at this moment he was not as surprised as the people around him.
He just frowned and thought: Can a freshman perform such a large-scale illusion?
It can achieve the effect of concealing the true body shape. It seems that nothing has happened on the field, but at least an illusion has been unfolded.
This is not reasonable for a freshman with a third-level magic power level.
A fiery breath suddenly approached, and in an instant a figure appeared on the empty seat reserved next to him.
Jiang Liujing turned around and saw that it was indeed Chi.
The tall young man came suddenly and quietly. He appeared out of nowhere, but he was so natural that it seemed as if he had always been there. Apart from a few people around him, he did not attract much attention.
After sitting next to Jiang Liujing, he did not pay attention to the scene like everyone else, but first checked the child's condition. He felt relieved after confirming that he had just consumed too much magic power.
Jiang Liujing whispered to him the current situation on the field. While they were talking, Lei Academy was still attacking, but to no avail. Until a certain moment, the students of Lei Academy suddenly trembled and stopped moving with their eyes blank.
The senior student said, "Not good, they are trapped!"
The students of Guangyuan who had been disappearing in the air finally showed up, or rather, the illusion used to conceal their location was removed.
As if they had completed an impromptu performance, the expressions on their faces were full of ease and satisfaction, and they approached the motionless students of Lei Academy with the pride and satisfaction of impending victory.
These people have fallen into Xavier's illusion, just like prey caught in a spider web, and have no way to deal with the approaching hunter.
"It's too easy. You were so arrogant just now. You were just bragging."
"That's right, you dare to talk back to Xavier? You really overestimate your own abilities."
Xavier smiled even as everyone praised him. He walked towards Wen Xun, the leader, and said modestly, "It was just a fluke. I took advantage of them when they were not prepared. Lei Yuan is still quite capable..."
Just as he was about to press his outstretched hand on Wen Xun's chest, he suddenly seemed to realize something and quickly stepped back. The next second, a crackling electric current suddenly penetrated the ground where he was previously standing.
How long had it been? He was already awake?!
Xavier managed to steady himself somewhat awkwardly, but the lightning still stained some of his long golden hair, scorching and breaking the edges. He looked up and saw Wen Xun's eyes coldly open, his gaze piercing him.
"Little tricks."
The smile on Xavier's face began to fade. He held up his golden hair with trembling hands and took a look at it. Then he flew into a rage and said, "How dare you touch my hair!"
Wen Xun let out a "ha" sound, and lightning gathered in his hand again. "I'll move. How's it going?"
Xavier's voice suddenly became fierce, "You will pay for your actions!"
His words triggered the Guangyuan students to take action. Instead of besieging Wen Xun, they prioritized attacking the other Leiyuan students. Wen Xun was the only one who had woken up early from the illusion; the others remained standing like wooden stakes, waiting to be hit.
Wen Xun inexplicably felt that this situation was very familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.
When he wanted to intervene, Xavier and two other masked students from the Guangyuan Academy formed a triangle to block him. They didn't cause any damage, but just made his attacks miss and unable to move freely, like three slippery loaches.
"It's quite disgusting, but it works, especially for simple-minded idiots like this." Chi commented on the spot.
Jiang Liujing was still thinking about how to crack it: "To deal with this kind of illusion, I think a large-scale attack would be better. Even if they hide, they can't leave the range of the platform."
Lightning spells are more effective against single targets and are not good at group attacks. In contrast, Fire spells will probably have an easier time dealing with Light spells, leaving them no room for evasion.
Chi nodded and added, "But this only applies before the illusion pulls you in. Once you're pulled in, you'll lose your ability to move, and even a short period of time will be very dangerous."
Jiang Liujing frowned and fell into deep thought.
On the field, the situation gradually became clear. Although many students from the Lei Academy gradually broke through the illusion and woke up, the oncoming attacks still caught them off guard. In panic, they were sent out of the field one after another, and finally only Wen Xun was left.
Surrounded by a courtyard, he sneered, still unafraid, with a sense of a lone hero: "Go ahead."
The people from Guangyuan looked at each other and then attacked without any hesitation.
Xavier did not intervene, busying himself with magic to heal his long golden hair until all the dry black hair once again glowed with a beautiful golden luster. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief and put on the gentle smile that disgusted Wen Xun again.
He looked at Wen Xun, whose strength was being continuously drained and whose condition was gradually declining, and said slowly, "If the rules allowed it, I would break every bone in your body, leaving you with only screams of regret for your actions."
"Be thankful, Representative Leiyuan, you saved your life."
