Chapter 80 Adventures of the Corridor (Part 1)
On the other side, after entering the room, Anves took a quick look around.
A moment later, he found a long, narrow and deep crack in the basement of the house.
Compared with the stone quality of the surrounding walls, the color of the fracture surfaces on both sides of the crack is unusually new.
And below the crevice, an ancient staircase sloping downwards is Faintly discernible.
Staring at the darkness below the stairs, Anves did not enter in a hurry, but raised his hand to summon a flame and controlled it to float into the darkness below the stairs.
The small orange flames are suspended at a height of half a meter above the ground, flying neither fast nor slow. The darkness was dispelled by the faint rays of light, and Anves saw a series of delicate footprints in the dust on the ground.
Although it is a flame supported by magic power, if it enters a dirty air environment, this flame will also be extinguished.
“It didn’t go out, which means there must be a vent in the passage below. Also, a person just passed by here.”
Confirming Claire’s whereabouts, a smile hung from the corner of Anves’ mouth From then on, the Darkmoon Staff appeared silently in the palm of his hand.
The left hand behind him silently pinched a gesture, and a pale white bright light ball condensed in front of his head.
But as he was about to descend the stairs, the magic eye of in midair noticed something new:
A female student was rapidly approaching the house.
Anves thought for a moment, remembering that she seemed to be a freshman of his time, named Pekara.
Is she also attracted by the news of the house collapsing?
It seems that there is one more companion to race with the tiger.
Shook the head lightly, and Anves walked slowly down the stairs.
It doesn’t matter, the most important thing now is to find Claire’s position at this time.
.
….….
In the narrow and cramped corridor, a half-elf girl with long golden hair is walking slowly.
The surrounding air is damp and dull, with an unpleasant odor characteristic of poorly ventilated environments.
But this didn’t bother the girl—a thin layer of magic effect covered the girl’s mouth and nose, blocking out the dirty breath, allowing only filtered fresh air to pass through.
A curved and strange short dagger resembling a ceremony dagger, clenched tightly in the girl’s fair left hand.
The right hand seems to fall naturally, but the swing range is very small, ready to take out spell casting materials or alchemy props from the light brown pouches around the waist at any time.
A special brass lantern was suspended in front of her left, with a warm yellow and reassuring faint halo, illuminating a cone in front of her.
The girl controlled the angle of the lantern from time to time and checked the rock walls on both sides to avoid missing possible dangers.
The sound of soft footsteps echoed through the ancient silent corridor.
Walking along, the girl’s white and crystal pointed ears suddenly moved.
Behind her, there is some kind of voice that doesn’t belong to her!
The girl instinctively stopped, carefully extinguished the lantern, and pressed her body against the wall. The right hand changed two gestures and recited a short spell in a low voice.
“”Invisibility Veil”—”
The mysterious spell effect appeared immediately, and the girl’s silhouette gradually became transparent and melted into the air.
Ta, ta, ta…
Accompanied by soft white light and footsteps, what caught my eye was the silhouette of the boy who had smiled at her before.
A ball of pale white light the size of a fist dispelled the darkness, illuminating his soft pale countenance and light golden hair, the crystal monocle refracts a magical light, and the mysterious silver spell book hangs from his waist between.
A graceful and slender silver-white staff was held in his hand, and the irregular crystals at the tip of the staff shone with a faint blue luster. The reflected light reflects on the slightly swaying Academy cloak, making his temperament seem mysterious and noble.
So beautiful…
Staring at the silhouette of Anves emerging in the dark, the half-elf girl couldn’t help but be a little ecstatic.
Immediately, she was suddenly startled, and began to blush again at her momentary thoughts.
But after seeing that the visitor was a classmate, not something strange, she relaxed and released her invisibility.
I don’t know if she was delusional or not, the moment she was released from invisibility, she seemed to feel that the new student took a look at her invisibility.
“Oh! What a coincidence, Senior Sister, we meet again.”
Seeing the girl’s figure, Anves showed a somewhat surprised look, with a harmless face. Greeted her.
When the girl gently nodded
and was about to say something, the sound of new footsteps came from behind the two of them again.
The two people with different thoughts turned their heads to look at the same time. A beautiful girl with blond hair and purple eyes, holding a long-handled staff, appeared in the corridor behind them.
“Is there already someone here? Hello, my name is Pekara, this year’s freshman~”
Surprised by Claire’s existence, Pekara blinked Blinking big amethyst-like eyes, showing a sweet and lively smile, he politely greeted the two of them.
“The house outside suddenly collapsed, so I came here to check the situation.”
“You’re Anves, right! I remember you, and you got it in the freshman welcome ceremony The person who made the perfect evaluation!”
The girl looked at Anves with shining eyes, with a touch of admiration in her tone.
“Hello, Pekara. It’s an honor to have a lady remember my name in such a short time—”
Anves calmly smiling, gracefully nodded to her.
Although I knew it was just a deliberate compliment from the girl, it was quite comfortable to hear.
“What’s your name for this beautiful half-elf elder sister?”
After a brief chat with Anves, Pekara turned to the girl in front of the corridor, her tone and eyes full of expression. with a hint of curiosity.
“…I’m Claire.”
After a moment of silence, the blonde girl spoke softly. The sound is like a forest stream filled with mist, with some mysterious color in its beauty.
“Claire? What a nice name!”
Pekara had a cute smile on her face, and the compliment she said made the girl blushed slightly.
“Hello, Sister Claire Senior—”
Staring at her beautiful blue eyes illuminated by the white light, like crystal clear blue eyes, Anves gently laughed, elegantly. A slight salute.
That’s right, it’s her.
Claire Liddell, the Legendary explorer who has changed the entire old world pattern, is fortunate to meet——
“This corridor should not have been cleaned by the explorers, There may be unpredictable dangers. You guys, are you sure you want to move on?”
Bi blue’s eyes stared at the two people who were in different thoughts, Claire’s beautiful eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, her tone With a hint of kindness.
“Of course, it has not been cleaned, which means that there is likely to be an unexpected harvest, doesn’t it?”
Anves smiled and looked back at the girl’s eyes. Glittering under the light of candlelight.
While speaking, he looked at the two vaguely.
Claire, third rank, has little strength.
Pekara, First Rank, Chicken.
