NOVEL NEXT Chapter 25 - Treasure In The Treasure Chest
The instant Alice landed, Linley Bart caught her faster than anyone else.
The abnormal weather caused by her magic had returned to normal but there was still a large snow fog on the competition arena.
Linley Bart caught Alice without much effort. Her body was very light.
Like all young girls, she didn’t weigh much. Or rather, Alice was much lighter than all the other girls.
Although she was a princess, compared to other princesses, she did not like luxurious items or attending banquets and eating desserts.
For Alice, her greatest interest had always been reading and studying in the library.
Only magic could interest her.
Hence, she was much lighter than the other girls.
When Linley Bart caught Alice who had fallen from the sky, he had thought of something. Although his mission to defeat Alice had failed, the countdown for the Special Mysterious Treasure Chest had yet to disappear.
“Special Mysterious Treasure Chest countdown; 7… 6… 5…”
No one was able to see the competition arena yet. If Linley Bart wanted to complete his mission, he had to seize this opportunity.
Linley Bart quietly tapped Alice’s lips with his own.
He could only blame this damned system for giving him such a strange mission.
Ding, failed the mission of defeating Alice. You have lost the Phoenix’s World Extinguishing Forbidden Spell! ‘
“Ding, Special Mysterious Treasure Chest mission completed!”
“Opened the Special Mysterious Treasure Chest!”
“Obtained the Spring of Life!”
“Obtained the feather of the phoenix!”
“Obtained the Wand of the Eternal Spring Tree!”
“Obtained the Robe of Wind and Thunder!”
“Obtained S-Rank spell, [Prophecy]!”
Five items appeared in a row! As expected of a Special Mysterious Treasure Chest! It was indeed different from the other treasure chests.
After opening the treasure chest, the attributes and abilities of these items appeared in front of him.
Spring of Life – The spring water from the Spring of Life can heal any damage and increase vitality. As long as one is not dead, one can be saved.
Feather of the phoenix – A chance to revive!
Wand of the Eternal Spring Tree – Using this wand will greatly increase the recovery rate of magic power. On top of that, one can summon at least two treants every day. When the output of magic power increases, the number of treants for summoning will also increase.
Robe of Wind and Thunder – After wearing this robe, you will be immune to wind and thunder magic that has yet to reach the advanced level. Using wind and thunder magic will also greatly increase its power.
S-Rank spell, [Prophecy] – Find out something that will happen within the next three days.
After Linley Bart received these items, he felt extremely satisfied. These were the best items he had gotten from the treasure chests in the academy.
The most precious one was of course the feather of the phoenix. It could revive someone once, which was equivalent to giving him a chance to rise back from the dead.
With this treasure, Linley Bart wouldn’t have to worry about anything unexpected happening.
The Spring of Life was a top-notch healing medicine. As long as he didn’t die, he could be saved. This was equivalent to a second life.
These two life-saving treasures were extremely effective for Linley Bart.
Adding both of these items, he could be said to have three lives. No matter what kind of danger he encountered, he was allowed to make two mistakes.
The wand of the Eternal Spring Tree also solved the problem of him not having a weapon at the moment. Although it focused mainly on helping him recover his magic power, it was still better than nothing.
Having the Robe of Wind and Thunder also meant that he could completely restrain the wind and thunder magic sorcerers.
From what he recalls, he remembered that one of the top ten students was a wind and thunder magic sorcerer.
The last was the Prophecy spell. Linley Bart was rather curious about this spell. Could this spell really be considered as an S-Rank?
From what he knows, divination and prophecy were taught in sorcery academies too. Some of the simplest divinations were not difficult at all.
Linley Bart didn’t understand why this Prophecy spell was considered an S-rank spell by the system.
But none of that was important. Just the things he had acquired so far were enough to make him satisfied.
The magic barrier of the arena was opened immediately after and the competition arena could be said to be basically destroyed. Flames and frost mixed together to form a very strange scene. The arena was sometimes cold and sometimes hot.
The medical teacher rushed on stage and began to treat Alice. She had used magic beyond her own level. She had overdrawn her magic power and her life. There were even some white strands of hair seen among her golden hair.
This was the result of forcefully overdrawing her vitality. If Alice wasn’t young, she would have died after using that magic.
None of the teachers had expected that the battle between these two juniors would be so intense.
Even if they went on stage themselves, they did not have the confidence to win this battle.
The remaining magical elements were still lingering around, and the energy of ice and fire was still affecting the people on the stage.
Those with low magic affinity did not dare to approach this place. They could only wait for the magical elements to dissipate before they dared to approach.
At this moment, the principal walked up and said, “This is an unprecedented match since the opening of the Holy Dragon Sorcery Academy. It’s extremely exciting and can be recorded in the academy’s history. Regardless of the outcome of this competition, the two contestants are respected, powerful sorcerers!”
“However, since this is a competition, the victor has to be decided. In this competition, Linley Bart had voluntarily admitted defeat. Thus, I announce that the victor is… Alice!”
Even though Alice was unconscious, the surrounding audience still cheered like a tsunami.
This was because this match was too brilliant, one that had far exceeded their imaginations.
They were not stingy with their praise and appreciation.
The principal stroked his white beard. When he saw this match, he was full of confidence in the strength of this batch of students.
Even the lower-grade students had such strength, let alone the higher-grade students!
It seemed that the champion of the Five Great Sorcery Academy Competition this year was destined to be theirs!
However, some people began to question the results of this match. Alice was clearly the one who had fainted and Linley Bart hadn’t suffered many injuries.
Logically speaking, it should have been Linley who had won.
However, the victor was Alice, which made people’s imagination run wild.
