Author: Half-wounded but not broken

Since the disappearance of the tyrannical demon king, Naspar's population has been continuously losing. Now it is said to be a small town, but in fact it is hard to say whether there are thousands of residents. Even the guards are too lazy to patrol at night.

The same is true for the Adventurer School. The heavy physical training during the day made everyone go to bed very early and sleep very hard. Basically after 8 o'clock in the evening, only two dotted lights in the school were still on.

Until it was almost dawn, a roar broke through the silence, and the brightness of the flames and the loud noise woke everyone up from their deep sleep.

The sound came from the magic testing ground behind the student dormitory. Since few mages have enrolled in the past twenty years, this place is almost abandoned.

The first people who rushed to the scene were the guards who escorted the noble students to Naspar. These people were originally stationed near the magic testing ground. When they heard the sound, they thought they were being attacked and thought they had tried to kidnap the nobles not long ago.

The guys came again and rushed out of the tent immediately.

The next one to arrive was Elysee.

Although the task assigned to her to keep an eye on Sally was very important, it was just a matter of checking for deficiencies, and the senior management of the Sword of Salvation also believed that Sally had nothing to do with Randall.

But Elise still worked very seriously. Even in school, she still maintained the same vigilance as in the wild. She was the quickest to react when she heard a sound, and she almost kept pace with the guards.

Then she found Pei Renli lying unconscious on the ground and a big hole left on the spell testing ground.

Alisee quickly took out the healing potion from Perenli's body and poured it into him. At this time, the students who were a step behind also rushed to the scene from the dormitory.

Michelle and Camilla immediately provided emergency treatment and helped Pastor Di Qiuya, who came from the farthest teachers' dormitory, to send Perrenli to the infirmary.

After a round of treatment, Pei Renli finally regained consciousness and got the answer after careful questioning.

To put it simply, he got lost.

Pei Renli told them that he went to bed a little early and got up earlier than usual. He got up and read for a while when he had nothing to do. He saw a spell and wanted to try it, but he accidentally made a mistake, which led to the explosion.

.

This kind of thing is not uncommon among mages.

Spellcasting is a very precise and complicated job. Low-level spells are okay, but high-level spells will become extremely cumbersome. Mistakes in any step may lead to serious consequences. It is not possible to have a spell explode on your face.

Not uncommon.

It should be said that nothing like this has happened to Pei Renli to this day, but it is rather strange.

And if something like this happens, who is responsible?

Unfortunately, it's Teacher Grace.

Pastor Di Qiuya dragged Teacher Grace and sprayed her for a full hour because she failed to fulfill her responsibility to warn Pei Renli of the dangers of magic. Didn't the students know and the teacher didn't know either?

So Teacher Grace, who had just woken up and was still looking confused, was sprayed inexplicably.

It was just an accident. Everyone went back to the dormitory to wash up. It was almost dawn anyway, so they were ready to start today's training.

No one discovered that the explosion was actually directed and staged by Pei Renli.

The reason is of course not to deceive Teacher Grace, but mainly for more effective treatment.

Pei Renli was rarely injured in the Demon King Arena, and at most he was only slightly injured. This was actually quite lucky. At least he didn't have to worry about the aftermath. If he drank a bottle of healing potion and slept again, outsiders would never be able to tell the clues.

But not this time.

Pei Renli suffered a fractured ulna in his left arm, a fractured femur in his right leg, a cracked sternum, several broken ribs, and too many other bruises and abrasions to count.

An injury of this degree cannot be cured by just treating it with potions, especially if it is a fracture, it will be even more troublesome if the bone becomes crooked due to the stiffness.

The fastest way to recover health is to resort to divine magic, but Pei Renli couldn't explain why he was injured after just sleeping. He couldn't say that he fell off the bed, right?

So he created an explosion and made everyone think it was an experiment with magic.

Of course, in order to hide it from Pastor Di Qiuya and prevent him from noticing that the injuries were inconsistent with the explosion, Pei Renli first used healing potions to cover up all the obvious scars, especially the parts of his legs where the fist marks were obvious. In order to wait for the potion to take effect

After waiting for half a night, the preparations were completed, and then the explosion was directed and staged when the sky was dark.

It is indeed a troublesome thing not to have good enough medical treatment. Injury is inevitable in the Demon King's Arena. It is not a big problem to treat skin and flesh injuries with healing potions alone. Serious injuries will be very slow, so you can only seek help.

Professional pastor.

But there are no professional priests under Pei Renli, but there is a shaman on the lizard people side, but his medical skills...

Anyway, Pei Renli didn't feel comfortable letting him treat her, and besides, he didn't really want to let the lizard man see his true form right now. So he could only suffer the pain from Teacher Grace.

This matter must still be solved. Pei Renli plans to add better healing potions to his next liver-exploding plan, or try to create magic items with similar effects.

But having said that, although the difficulty of the Demon King Arena this time was much higher than usual, it still did not exceed Pei Renli's corresponding range. At least he managed to get through. When he cleared the level, many demon kings were still fighting in the Demon King Arena.

But if you think about it carefully, Pei Renli was able to successfully pass the level because his strength was indeed at the forefront of this new generation of demon kings. Most of the demon kings were actually about the same ability as the wood warlocks he killed.

Estimated according to this standard, one-third of the more than 300 new demon kings are likely to die. Compared with the usual maximum mortality rate of about 5%, the degree of danger is self-evident.

As for the Shadow of the Demon King, Pei Renli didn't want to think too much about it.

When he thought of the violent demon king who was completely dead and whose remains were used as tools, Pei Renli couldn't help but think about whether he would have such a day, and became entangled in it, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

All in all, Pei Renli passed this hurdle without any danger. According to Elegant Demon King Miles, the next hurdle will be twenty-one months later, and every time he passes one, the frequency of entering the Demon King Arena will increase.

will all decline.

This is good news for Pei Renli, which will give him more time to make more complete preparations.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

When it got dark, everyone was dragged out for training, and Pei Renli returned to the dormitory from the infirmary.

But instead of taking the opportunity to catch up on sleep, he sat at his desk and wrote and drew.

"Your Majesty, you should rest."

Seeing that Pei Renli was gasping in pain from time to time, Ravna reminded her.

Pei Renli waved his hand, picked up the compass and said:

"When I finish this, this will be much more important than sleeping."

As mentioned before, even if the bone is healed with magic, it will still hurt for two days, similar to phantom limb pain.

Normally, Pastor Di Qiuya would prescribe some painkillers in this situation, but he didn't give them this time. He said that the pain for two days would make Pei Renli's memory worse, and he should be more careful with spells.

But won’t you drink it if you don’t give it to me?

It can't be.

Painkilling potion is not difficult to make. It is not considered a magic potion. Pei Renli can make it himself with the materials on hand.

Then he got a restraining order from Teacher Grace, and he was not allowed to enter the alchemy laboratory for seven days.

——Probably it was revenge after being sprayed.

Since he had more tools than before and was far more proficient than before, Pei Renli worked for five or six minutes before leaving a magic circle full of runes on the paper.

He took out the 'ring' that Charlie gave him, placed it on the magic circle, and injected magic power into the magic circle.

That thing was not actually a ring, it looked like a thimble split in half, and the inner ring was too small, so it was not meant to be worn on people's fingers.

It has the remnants of magic power, but it is not a magic item. When Pei Renli came back with an injury, he examined it and found that it was actually a medium, usually used to summon spells.

Thinking again about the conversation when Xia Li gave the 'ring' to Pei Renli, the answer is already very obvious.

With the injection of magic power, the 'ring' in the center of the magic circle slowly floated about two or three centimeters, and then the light in the magic circle slowly gathered towards the center, like a 3D printing. Within a few seconds, the magic circle was filled with

There is an additional creature that was not there before.

It looks very similar to a pigeon, but it has very eye-catching orange feathers, and its body is closer to the projection, as if it will disappear into the air at any time. The so-called 'ring' from before is now worn on the pigeon's paw.

.

This thing is called the Twin Spirit Homing Pigeon. It is a very rare void creature that can fly freely in the endless void like the universe environment.

Its biggest feature is that it is 'twin', with two entities.

It is equivalent to it being able to appear in two completely different places at the same time, and the two entities interact with each other. For example, when one of them is full, the other will also be full.

As expected of a summoner, he could actually find such an extremely rare creature to sign a contract with. Pei Renli had only seen a brief introduction in the illustrated book, and this was the first time he had seen the real thing.

As for why it is called homing pigeon...

This Twin Spirit carrier pigeon has a leather cylinder tied with a strap on its back. After being removed, there is a metal mailbox inside, which can be used to roll letters like a scroll.

Pei Renli gently turned the knob on the side and immediately saw a line of Juanxiu font written in Common Language.

‘Atlas, hello, since you have read my letter, you must have returned to your original plane safely’

Due to the characteristic that the two entities of the Twin Spirit Carrier Pigeon can influence each other, its greatest role is as a communication platform, and it can even achieve cross-dimensional communication.

‘I am a trainee teacher at Lucilde Academy of Magic in the plane called Dosu, responsible for teaching spells’

The purpose of revealing information is to gain trust. Anyway, the devil cannot cross planes to seek revenge. This can gain favor.

‘What I am going to say next must not be mentioned in the Demon King’s Arena’

Here’s a new line:

'My mentor and the principal of the school knew about the Demon King. According to his records, the Demon King and the Demon King system suddenly appeared about a thousand years ago. Once they appeared, they covered many planes and countless people were selected.

Demon King'

These words shocked Pei Renli, and he quickly turned the pulley and looked down.

'My mentor doesn't know who did this, but what is certain is that this existence must be extremely powerful and dark. My mentor warned me that I would not be able to break through the siege on my own, and that the ending waiting for me would be a miserable death.

So I need allies'

‘Atlas, I hope to cooperate. We all have a common enemy. I am trying to check some information, but I can’t guarantee whether I can get useful information. Maybe you who are in a different plane from me will find something else.’

Continuing on, he drew a simple and strange symbol on the letter paper, like a black ball, but with a white edge and a layer of black.

‘The only clue I’ve got so far is this. It may be a holy emblem, or it may be a emblem representing a certain person.’

'We have a common enemy and a common secret. I look forward to your making a rational judgment.'

The name signed reads 'Charlie'.
