We also think that you......” 15 or 16 years old Mage apprentice saw Steven that the main entrance walks, cannot bear the pleasantly surprised say/way. “你回来了！……我们还以为你……”一个十五六岁的巫师学徒看到了正门走进来的史蒂芬,忍不住惊喜道。 Steven nodded with a slight smile has not spoken. 史蒂芬微笑点头没有说话。 Because his simply does not remember that who this youngster is, gets up his class Mage apprentice has been many, each class several hundred people, he basically will not record the name. 因为他根本就不记得这个少年是谁,上过他课的巫师学徒还是不少的,每堂课都有好几百人,他基本上也不会去记名字。 Appearance that institute inside atmosphere a little nervous, all people are going on a trip in a hurry. 学院里面的气氛有点紧张,所有人都是一副行色匆匆的模样。 Steven discovered after many constructions have breakage, has repaired the sign, simultaneously arranged in Armored Puppet of various places were more than before, Elemental Pool, Astrology Station and Botanical Garden clearly increased have recruited the apprentice quantity, Steven saw that many Level 3 above Mage apprentice was wearing respective affiliated symbol. 史蒂芬发现不少建筑都有破损后重新修复过的迹象,同时布置在各处的铠甲傀儡比以前更多了,元素池、占星台和植物园都明显增加了招收学徒的数量,史蒂芬看到不少三级以上的巫师学徒都佩戴着各自所属的徽记。 In after the entrance of sewer, he saw unexpectedly two wear Elemental Pool symbol Battle Mage to defend there. 在经过下水道的入口时,他居然看到两个佩戴元素池徽记的战斗巫师守在那里。 „What happened? could it be did institute receive to attack?” In the Steven heart has a restlessness. “发生什么事情了？难道学院又受到袭击了？”史蒂芬心中有一丝不安。 He returns to Botanical Garden. 他一路返回植物园。 However after he enters Botanical Garden, looks at that big piece of clear and cold field of flowers, Steven can't help frowning. 不过就在他进入植物园后,看着那一大片清清冷冷的花田,史蒂芬不由皱起了眉头。 „Queen Betty?” “贝蒂女王呢？” „Why can't Sprite see? Where did they go to?” “为什么一个小仙女都看不到？她们去哪里了？” In entire field of flowers a quiet piece, in those days in the words of careful observation, can always see Sprite in busy form, they probably are the industrious small honeybees, every day will look after sea of flowers brewing nectar. But now Steven Sprite had not seen, has not felt these Spirit of Nature aura. 整个花田内静悄悄的一片,往日里仔细观察的话,总能够看到小仙女在其中忙碌的身影,她们就好像是勤劳的小蜜蜂,每天都会照料花海酿造花蜜。可是现在史蒂芬一个小仙女都没有看到,也没有感受到这些自然之灵的气息。 Usually in he comes back, if Queen Betty saw that definitely will fly affectionate a while, but now all around piece of clear and cold. 平日里他一回来,如果贝蒂女王看到的话肯定会飞过来亲昵一会儿,但现在四周一片清清冷冷的。 „What happened?” In the Steven heart is even more restless. “发生什么事了？”史蒂芬心中越发不安起来。 His can't help but sped up the footsteps, hurries to toward tree room that side rapidly. more approaches the restlessness in tree room Steven heart more obvious, Pixie that because made noise in those days disappears, entire Botanical Garden is chilly. 他不由加快了脚步,朝着树屋那边迅速赶去。越靠近树屋史蒂芬心中的不安就越明显,因为往日里喧嚣的皮克精都不见了,整个植物园这边非常清冷。 tree room appears at present. 树屋出现在眼前。 But he has not seen the other people form, all around has covered a dust, as if sometime nobody had lived. 可是他并没有看到其他人的身影,四周都蒙上了一层灰尘,似乎已经有一段时间没人住过了。 In Steven heart thumped! 史蒂芬心中咯噔了一下！ Did could it be have an accident? 难道出事了？ His walking quickly walks toward the pumpkin house that side, but is quick rapidly to approach his then perception to a person. 他快步朝着南瓜房子那边走去,不过很快他便感知到一个人正在飞速靠近。 „Where you died to!?” Witch Lianna has one angry, restless, the sound of worry to transmit, after falling to the ground, she then jumped, directly with skull with the head of Steven to bumping, seems this then can vent her mood. “你死到哪里去了！？”莉安娜女巫带着一丝气恼、不安、担心的声音传来,落地后她便是跳了起来,直接拿脑壳跟史蒂芬的脑袋对碰了一下,仿佛是这样便可以发泄一下她的情绪。 Steven cannot attend to these, the tone a little anxiously said: „Your Highness Betty? Avila and Emily?” 史蒂芬顾不得这些,语气有点焦急道:“贝蒂殿下呢？艾薇拉和艾蜜莉呢？” „Why haven't I seen them? Their people?” “为什么我没看见她们？她们人呢？” With Queen Betty is best in the relations of Botanical Garden Steven, then is the twin sisters, as for Witch Lianna, their two collected can not bicker together has calculated well. 在植物园史蒂芬跟贝蒂女王的关系最好,然后便是双胞胎姐妹,至于莉安娜女巫,他们两个凑一起能不斗嘴就已经算不错了。 Hears the Steven words, Witch Lianna expression stiffened, immediately look as if discontented, her turning round big eyes transferred, tone suddenly becomes is a little heavy, lowered the head a sad appearance, said slowly: „Comes back after Death Mire...... institute received the attacks of large quantities of monster...... We lose not slightly......” 听到史蒂芬的话,莉安娜女巫表情一僵,随即神色似乎有一丝不满,她滴溜溜的大眼睛转了一下,语气突然间变得有点沉重起来,低下头一副伤心的样子,缓缓道:“从死亡泥沼回来后……学院受到了大批魔物的袭击……我们损失不小……” „Betty, Avila and Emily...... They......” “贝蒂、艾薇拉和艾蜜莉……她们……” „They......” “她们……” Steven hears the Witch Lianna words, the whole person immediately whole body shakes, held her arm, solemnly said: „They?......” 史蒂芬听到莉安娜女巫的话,整个人顿时浑身一震,一把抓住了她的胳膊,沉声道:“她们怎么了？……” „pain, pain, pain!” Witch Lianna suddenly jumped, has worked loose the palm of Steven, but also had liquor go to one's head to withstand/top his, then turned around to run, ran also used cheerful tone said: „They were certainly all right! How has me to protect them possibly to have an accident!......” “痛痛痛！”莉安娜女巫突然跳了起来,挣脱了史蒂芬的手掌,还拿脑袋顶了他一下,接着转身就跑,边跑还边用欢快的语气道:“她们当然都没事了！有我保护她们怎么可能会出事嘛！……” Steven hearing this gawked, the shortly afterwards complexion pale anger rises. 史蒂芬闻言愣了一下,紧接着脸色铁青怒气上扬。 „Shadow Tentacles!” “阴影触手！” Jet black energy tentacle suddenly from the ground-level ejection, a the previous moment also complacent expression happy escape Witch Lianna, the next moment is resounds intermittent flurried screams, sound a little ashamed and resentful said: „This is what the hell spell!...... A bit faster lets loose me!......” 一根根漆黑的能量触手突然从地面弹射而出,前一刻还一副得意洋洋表情欢脱得不行的莉安娜女巫,下一刻便是响起一阵阵慌乱的惊呼声,声音有点羞愤道:“这是什么鬼法术！……快点放开我！……” „Does not want!...... Quite itchy!......!...... Quite uncomfortable!...... A bit faster loosens!......” “不要！……好痒！……呜！……好难受！……快点松开！……” „Why my whole body did not have strength!......” “为什么我浑身都没力气了！……” „ying ying ying!......” “嘤嘤嘤！……” „I made a mistake!......

A bit faster lets loose me!......” “我错了！……我错了！……我不该戏弄你！……快点放开我！……” However is in an instant. 不过是转眼之间。 Witch Lianna then by more than ten Shadow Energy Tentacles twining on the spot, Steven angry under forgot to hide own casting ability, Shadow Tentacles that displayed without suppressed strength although was only 5th-level spell, but the negative energy energy absorption characteristics were to let being caught off guard Witch Lianna as before suffered loss. This spell is the Steven improvement has optimized, these Shadow Energy Tentacles are not only tenacious, but can also corrode with negative energy absorbs the physical strength of opposite party, making it enter the weak condition rapidly. The Witch Lianna basic preparation does not have, responded when stubbornly had been twined by more than ten Shadow Energy Tentacles. 莉安娜女巫便被十多根阴影能量触手给缠绕在了原地,史蒂芬恼怒之下忘了隐藏自己的施法能力,在没有压制实力的情况下施展出来的阴影触手虽然只是五环法术,可是负能量的吸能特性依旧是让措手不及的莉安娜女巫吃足了苦头。这个法术是史蒂芬改良优化过的,这些阴影能量触手不但非常坚韧,而且还可以用负能量侵蚀吸收对方的体力,让其迅速进入虚弱状态。莉安娜女巫根本一点准备都没有,反应过来时就已经被十多根阴影能量触手死死缠绕了起来。 „Steven!” “史蒂芬！” „Steven you came back!” “史蒂芬你回来了！” Two look like is almost exactly the same young girl appears in not far away, when their expressions are blissful, by seeing to be twined certain strange postures by Shadow Energy Tentacles Witch Lianna, the twin sisters' joyful expression turned astonished, a little at a loss said: „You...... Teacher?...... How...... What happened?......” 两个看起来几乎是一模一样的少女出现在不远处,她们的表情充满喜悦,不过在看到旁边被阴影能量触手缠绕成某些奇怪姿势的莉安娜女巫时,双胞胎姐妹喜悦的表情变成了惊愕,有点茫然道:“你们……导师？……怎么了……发生什么事情了？……” „All right.” Steven smiled toward them first temperately, afterward then walked to control one of the Shadow Energy Tentacles on crackle rattle toward the buttocks of Witch Lianna to pull out. “没事。”史蒂芬先是朝着她们温和地笑了笑,随后便是走了过去操控着阴影能量触手朝着莉安娜女巫的屁股上噼里啪啦一顿抽。 Quick! 很快！ Witch Lianna ashamed and resentful desire certainly nearly driven mad sound resounds: „Steven!!!” 莉安娜女巫羞愤欲绝近乎抓狂的声音响起:“史蒂芬！！！” „Lets loose me quickly!...... I must be angry!...... Damn!...... A bit faster lets loose me!......” “快放开我！……我要生气了！……该死！……快点放开我！……” „Aiyu!......” “哎呦！……” „so painful!...... I made a mistake!...... Do not hit!...... Others did not admit mistakes!......” “好疼！……我错了！……别打了！……人家不是都认错了嘛！……” Jacob stands in the twin sisters, at this moment he looks at the present all dumbfoundedly, looked has been full of the worship to the Steven look. 雅各布就站在双胞胎姐妹的身后,此刻他目瞪口呆地看着眼前的一切,望向史蒂芬的眼神已经充满了崇拜。 .................. ………………
