Chapter 261 Passing by
The training ground was in full swing. The crowd in three circles inside and three circles outside surrounded the ring like ants grabbing food. The howling snow and cold wind could not stop their bursting enthusiasm.
Jiang Liujing stood under a tree not far from the training ground, taking in all the noisy sounds with a calm expression, as if he had already gotten used to it.
Holding a document in his right hand, he lowered his head and casually scanned the contents.
Compared with the past, he has an extra pair of gloves on his hands today.
The pitch-black leather gloves completely wrapped around his fair palms, leaving only his five slender jade-like fingers exposed.
The bottom of the gloves are embedded with two silver-white crystal bands that are crossed in an "X" shape. Heat continuously flows out from the precious gems, dispelling all the winter chill.
A gift from someone.
Jiang Liujing was slightly distracted as his subordinates stood by and reported the search results of the basement in an orderly manner.
After finding the scroll, they informed the principal of the relevant information, and within a week they had pinpointed the location of the basement.
The basement was not located in some remote and inaccessible place as they had expected. Instead, it was located right below Mo Jun’s residence in the academy.
Because Mo Junjun is popular, teachers often invite him to have parties in the house.
When those people were laughing and talking, they never thought that just across the wall, there were dozens of cold corpses lying.
"Failures." Mo Jun called them that in the scroll.
The research on biological puppets was not smooth sailing, and Mo Jun's experimental records were found in the basement.
At first, the puppet could only make clumsy reactions, but after his continuous improvements, it gradually showed rationality and humanity.
Mo Jun was extremely happy about this. He thought he had truly achieved "resurrection of the dead" and made the short life gain "eternity" after a death.
But when he tried to use this technique on his wife, he found himself failed.
The wife's body could not be moved no matter what, as if there was no trace of her soul left in her body.
He couldn't believe it, but the creation of a living puppet would cause serious damage to the corpse itself, and it could not withstand a second failure after one.
He didn't dare to gamble again. Looking at his wife's broken body, he no longer had any confidence in his own ignorance and incompetence, and could only turn to God for help.
As for the pursuit of Jiang Liujing, it was entirely due to his other selfish motive.
He fantasized that his wife would be resurrected one day, but her original body was already in tatters.
Mo Jun thought that among all the people he had met, only Jiang Liujing was the one who was most similar to his wife, and his appearance was also beautiful enough, so he planned to collect Jiang Liujing's "shell" as a backup option.
The person who reported this was very angry when he talked about it.
Mo Jun's true identity has spread throughout the school in the past few days. Those who spoke for him before can no longer hold their heads up in the school these days. Several students were so shocked that they stayed indoors.
The once "most popular teacher" has suddenly become a rat crossing the street that everyone wants to beat.
After hearing this, Jiang Liujing simply asked, "Has his wife been buried?"
The reporter paused for a moment, then nodded: "The bodies of the others have also been claimed by their families."
He still remembered that a little boy in a pointed hat came to the scene. When he saw one of the female corpses, he cried heartbreakingly in disbelief and loudly questioned why they had not noticed Mo Jun's evil deeds for so many years.
It was so close to them!
The reporter lowered his head and his voice became much weaker.
"This incident has dealt a heavy blow to the reputation of the Imperial Magic Academy."
The murderous puppeteer turned out to be an outstanding teacher at the Imperial Magic Academy, the premier institution. Once this news spread, it spread rapidly and widely.
It was just the crucial period before the College League began. Whether intentional or unintentional, numerous rumors were already clamoring for other colleges to join forces and dethrone the Imperial School of Magic from its top spot.
In the past, cooperation between colleges and universities in leagues was very common, but playing with one more player would still be despised, and even the final victory would not be recognized by other countries.
But the situation suddenly changed this year.
——"A just suppression."
People outside call it.
The reporter looked at Jiang Liujing with some concern.
The other candidates for the team are still in the process of selection, which is currently taking place on the training ground. But Jiang Liujing is definitely going to be there.
As contestants, they face far more pressure than other students in the school.
His subordinates were very worried that something bad would happen to him in this league.
Jiang Liujing seemed to feel no anxiety, and his expression did not change from beginning to end.
He just turned over another page of the list, his eyes sliding over each name and the corresponding points behind it, and said lightly:
"It's normal for them to have such thoughts. The college did make mistakes due to poor supervision. Don't worry, time will tell."
The calmness and composure of the young man seemed to have an invisible power, which infected his subordinates and gradually relaxed their mood.
Just as he was about to continue his report, the noise around him suddenly became even louder.
Jiang Liujing seemed to have noticed something and turned around, only to see the crowd parting to make way for him. A red-haired young man strode towards him, his figure like a sharp sword.
In fact, he has been killing like crazy these days.
For some unknown reason, the principal chose Chi as the subject to assess the combat capabilities of others. In an instant, the students at the Magician Academy felt the same pain that the students at the Magic Warrior Academy had once experienced.
His fighting power was completely overwhelming, and ordinary magic could do no harm to his body.
The most common comments Jiang Liujing heard about Chi in the past few days were two words -
"monster".
The extremely terrifying monster in front of everyone walked faster and faster, as if it was extremely anxious, and finally stopped in front of Jiang Liujing.
He lowered his head and looked at the boy in front of him, his red eyes flashing with a long light: "Are you coming to pick me up?"
"I was just passing by and came to see if you were working hard." Jiang Liujing turned his face away, his tone flat, and did not admit it.
passing by.
Chi glanced at a building that was as far away as possible from here, without exposing Jiang Liujing's words, and a slight smile rose at the corner of his mouth.
"So what do you think of my performance?"
