Chapter 226 - 150 The Fat Wizard_1
Chapter 226: Chapter 150 The Fat Wizard_1The chirping of insects is chilling.
It’s late by the big lake.
On the Willow Bank.
A soft breeze and a full moon.
When Zheng Qing was hit by a curse from deep within the forest near the lake, the two elders watching the battle didn’t pay attention to him.
They were discussing matters that had nothing to do with the youngsters’ fight.
"So you called me out in the middle of the night just to watch two kids fighting?" the Old Fishman’s thin hand stroked his smooth walking stick.
In the moonlight, the carved carp on the top of the stick seemed to twist its body contentedly.
Elder Ferna looked at the carp carefully, shaking his head without hesitation.
"Of course not," the old janitor leaned on his wooden stick, nestled against a thick horizontally growing branch of a big willow tree, his tone somewhat relaxed: "Actually, I called you because I wanted to ask about something else."
"If you’re asking about that cat, forget it. Every department in the school has already
"...you’ve stayed on land too long...it’s time to go back!"
"Sh...I will remember...sh..."
Were those the black robed wizards who just traded with the Fishman?
A thought flashed through Zheng Qing’s mind.
Maybe they would start fighting because the trade failed.
He prayed silently.
But as an atheist, his prayers did not get answered.
The arguing between the Fishman and the black robed wizards was getting louder. The sporadic words and pungent smell made Zheng Qing’s headache worse.
He even tasted a sensation from long ago in the pain that kept surging.
This made him extremely uneasy.
He began to recite the "Many Heart Sutras" in his heart, trying to divert his attention elsewhere.
Like the curse that attacked him.
For the curse ’My dark yellow horse’ that flew out in the forest, Zheng Qing could only vaguely guess that this was a ’non-lethal curse’, estimated to cause fatigue and blindness.
He only knew one spell beginning with ’My horse’.
It was the first spell that the Freshmen of Alpha Academy learned on their practical class this Friday. Assistant Hilda demonstrated it during practice, and the spell was called, ’My Horse Hui Tui’.
Zheng Qing remembered it very clearly.
Duan Xiao Jian — he was Teacher Hilda’s sparring partner at the time — collapsed and fell asleep immediately after being attacked with ’My Horse Hui Tui’.
And his current situation was very similar to Duan Xiao Jian’s.
Perhaps this curse was an upgraded version of ’My Horse Hui Tui’, meaning that the attacker was likely a student from Alpha Academy.
What were people from Alpha Academy doing in Jiuyou Academy late at night?
Zheng Qing found himself starting to get a headache again.
Fortunately, the arguing between the black-robed wizards and the Fishman gradually ceased at this time.
The Fishman’s heavy panting and footsteps lingered around for a moment before gradually fading away.
What also slowly dissipated was the thick fishy smell from its body.
Zheng Qing exhaled in relief, but also couldn’t help sighing.
He was relieved because the Fishman finally left quietly without beating him who was defenseless.
He sighed because at this time, he should have been dragging his spoils to Old Man Ferna for merit and reward, but because of a strange curse, he was paralyzed on the ground.
The reward, gone.
The wasted talismans, gone too.
After a while, Zheng Qing’s vision gradually recovered.
The faint moonlight, the dark and staring trees, the messy lawn, the surrounding scenery became clear one by one.
Accompanied by them was a shadow that gradually lengthened with the moonlight.
A fat wizard swathed in a black robe slowly walked out of the woods.
"Nice to meet you," the fat wizard rasped, nodding politely at him, "Zheng Qing."
Zheng Qing lifted his head, squinted, and scrutinized him.
