A Sorcerer's Journey Chapter 79

Near 100 dead bodies littered before the students.

Yates, Ardas and Lafite dragged these bodies into the cavity and buried them in simple procedures to prevent the rancid stink.

Along with the bodies was a pile of magical tools, which attracted none attention from Yates and Ardas. Ordinary tools were basically worthless to students that strong. Lafite and her likes though, whose mental strength hadn't reached 40, picked a few gadgets from the heap. Glenn chose a ring whose function was the same as his necklace—raise the value of mental strength by two points before it arrived at 40.

At the time, something was raging in Lafite's head.

"The 12th students were the cruel seamen group and the 19th students were the little students back on the ship. Then what if the better skilled students survived the hunting by us and form some organization like the Death Sail League? Will they launch a comeback? Or could they at least rival as equals? If so, a real war would break since the Black Isotta asked us to take no less than 30 resource points." Thought Lafite. "There is no way to unite the 12th students. They grew to be against unity, to be with their different mentality. And yet the 19th could achieve this because they have no internal contradictions."

Thus, Lafite's worries would be rendered understandable. But something distracted her soon.

"We two are the Compass Schoolers. Why are you doing this to us?" A bossy female voice came down from the ore slope.

The woman's clothes could barely cover her, whose figure was in great shape. Her long hair was fluttering in the air, eyes overbearing.

Glenn was studying the radium element in his oblivion and raised his head when catching the voice.

"Isn't she the domineering, tyrannic Daughter of Sun Mina in the Gory test?"

Glenn could still remember this Mina from the Compass School till this day. She fought herself with the best-gifted students of the Black Isotta. People were impressed by what she was capable of and Glenn himself nearly died because of her. But one virtue of knowing her was that he had gotten her Body of Flame.

This woman was an enhanced version of Lafite!

Then Yate's murmuring voice came from the slope. "You said you were from the Compass, who could prove that?"

"No need for that!" A female voice went off from behind Mina. The eyesight of everyone on site was dimmed. The next second a booming sound was heard and the bulk of the stone giant cracked and then exploded. The air around was filled with broken icicles, and the place went cool.

Yates was quick enough to turn himself into a beam of black smoke and reappeared several dozen meters away. He looked at the site where he was at with a shocked face.

It was the giant's hand that had been hit and smashed by an icicle, leaving only the arm being swallowed by the cloud of ice.

Yates quivered at the sight of this. With such formidable power, she must be the perennial first-place holder of the top ten students of the Black Isotta—Milly, the Ice Age.

The top ten students of the Black Isotta are tiered for three levels.

The lowest level was for the last five students on the list. The best capability could be brought out was Glenn in his prime before he obtained the gifts of Bionna and Kyrie and before he intentionally exposed himself to the poisons.

The second level was basically the heads of the four major leagues in the school, who could deal with the schools' protectors.

As to the highest level, only two students were graded into this class in the last nine batches of students enrolled in the school. Despite the two students couldn't match out with real sorcerer's ability to harness natural forces, they could be on an equal footing with level-one underground Lianti sorcerers in terms of their comprehensive capabilities. There was one thing worth mentioning: underground Lianti sorcerers couldn't harness natural forces and natural forces were not able to effect harm to them.

It could be summarized that in the absence of sorcerers, they would be the protector of the schools. And Ice Age Milly was one of the two best students.

"Impossible. Ice Age Milly? Such a mighty student would be sent to the 15th resource point by those great sorcerers. Why would you be here?" Yates doubted in a shrill voice.

"Oh? You know me then?" The gloomy Milly became nonchalant.

"Ha, I don't know you though. Forget it, save the introduction for later. The center resource point has got that guy for the protection. I'm not happy with him but he is more than able to do the defense. Anyway, I came here for my sister."

"Your sister?"

Milly had attracted the attention of Ardas who recognized her in the immediacy. At the time, he gazed out to this good-figured, red-haired, arrogant, cool girl.

Glenn and the others were not able to determine how strong the two students were except for the fact that they were strong.

Only Lafite among the group had recognized Mina because she once used the Golden Eye to lock her and thus remembered her. She just hadn't gotten the chance to speak it out.

"You're the Bright Sword Ardas?! Your wings of light are fabulous." Milly scanned the crowd and spoke to the fifth-ranked Ardas.

Ardas replied solemnly. "They could save my life."

Mina snorted, and then said lightly: "Why we can't..." With the sentence half finished, she stopped suddenly, and said joyously: "Glenn?"

"Eh?"

Glenn finally recognized Mina. "Why was she being happy seeing me here. I took her prize reserved for her in the Test ."

Mina greeting Glenn surprised the rest of the crowd who all then turned their focus to him.

After the greeting, Mina then walked to Glenn when she was halted by Milly and asked: "What's this about?"

"He's mine boy. He's the only one that could catch my eyes among the six schools. The guy I talked about all the time," said the dictatorial Mina as if Glenn had been a property of her.

Milly responded coldly. "To be in a relationship with him? That's not good...If either one of a spouse couldn't make it to be a sorcerer, then the other one would be alone forever. I won't allow..."

"Sister, this is my personal affair. Please stay out of this," said Mina. "Even if he couldn't be a sorcerer, I'll keep him for the moment and won't give anyone else any chance, because he's mine. Mine."

Afterwards Mina strode to Glenn, ignoring the existence of the crowd as if they were just there presenting a more attractive Glenn.

Lafite, Chris, Anna, Robin and Robinson all grimaced and Lafite turned back to Glenn, eyes staring at him.

She didn't say anything but her eyes were asking: "What's going on? Why would she say that?"

Glenn of course couldn't know how Mina has feelings about him back in the interrogation room. He was awkward in romance—He didn't know how Lafite fall in love with him in the first place, not to mention this Mina who didn't play by the playbook. But in Glenn's defense, insensitive in a romance was an issue facing many sorcerers.

However, to have Glenn was not a romance but a mere possession of a sort of collection.

Mina continued pacing towards Glenn and as she was just several steps away, Lafite and the others had gotten ready to launch a strike.

At the time, an arcane reaction rocked both Mina and Glenn.

Mina halted. She and Glenn showed an intoxicated expression almost immediately. Then the two of them went sober again and exchanged an incredible look.

This attraction force...

It was the attraction force produced between two Body of Flame—A wondrous attraction.

"Body of Flame would be drawn to each other?"

If Mina were Lafite, then this attraction would be fantastic. But...

Having realized this, Glenn clenched his fist and turned serious. "My will is not gonna be bent to the instinct reactions because of a gift."

"Impossible! Is it the Body of Flame?" Mina grimaced, glaring at Glenn like a devil. "Impossible. Why are you giving out the aura of Body of Flame? I'm the only one that has it. You such imposter. I'll not allow you to live in this world. I'm gonna kill you."

Only seconds past, Mina eyes towards Glenn had shifted from enjoying to panic and hatred. This change seemed to the rest of the crowd unreasonable.

"Bionna was right about her. She was indeed a mad woman."

Glenn grimaced. "This is not a good timing to be in a fight. I'm in the weakest state after getting myself poisoned. My battle strength would be half strong as the normal me. Maybe just at Lafite's level."
