442: Chapter 111: Put an Eye in the Sky_1 442: Chapter 111: Put an Eye in the Sky_1 The ‘Eye of the Vortex’ at the center of the Hunting Ground suddenly started violently trembling.
The mist, which had previously been converging towards the center, appeared to be dispersing, slowly spreading outwards.
This noticeable change imdiately attracted the attention of several young wizards from Jiuyou Academy.
“What happened?
Is there a problem with the Array?
Why didn’t I feel any abnormal magic fluctuations?” Zheng Qing quickly rotated the telescope in his hands, asking incessantly.
“Unclear,” Xin Fat Man replied.
Grasping a short pair of binoculars and leaning over the waist-high railing, he expressed his confusion, “It feels strange…
The mist is dispersing again, but it still maintains a certain shape…
It seems to be fluctuating regularly around the ‘Eye of the Vortex’…”
“Just like it’s breathing,” another voice agreed.
“Yes, yes, yes, just like the ‘Vortex’ is breathing,” Xin Fat Man enthusiastically nodded, adding, “The little fish in the mist have co back to life…
eh?”
Suddenly realizing sothing, Fat Man turned around to look at the one who had just agreed with him.
The speaker was ‘Half-Face.’
Perhaps perceiving the surprised looks around him, ‘Half-Face’ subtly retracted his sharp chin and a smile surfaced on his lips.
“It’s because the Hunting Team has finished their oath and is preparing to enter.
Since they’re entering, this small world naturally has to open its door…
The dispersing mist you see can be commonly understood as the process of opening the door,” Half-Face patiently elaborated to the young wizards.
“The competition for the ‘Academy Cup’ begins today?” Zheng Qing was surprised.
“Isn’t there so qualification round?”
“It’s a ‘Round-Robin Tournant’,” Half-Face corrected Zheng Qing’s words, while explaining, “Official hunting competitions don’t start today…
This is just a warm-up…
A performance of the hunt for those foreign ambassadors who ca to attend the opening ceremony and certain distinguished guests.”
Zheng Qing nodded, suddenly grasping the situation.
“As for the ‘Eye of the Vortex’ you ntioned, it’s actually a composite spell,” Half-Face explained to the young wizards using the unique enthusiasm of a rchant, hoping to narrow the gap between them:
“This composite spell is referred to as the ‘Heavenly Eye’ by the professors, as the na indicates, it’s the eye of the heavens…
Of course, ‘Eye of the Vortex’—the na you use—is also a very appropriate na.”
The last sentence was a small complint to the young wizards.
Certainly, this flattery was well-received by Xin Fat Man.
He wore an unreserved smile and his eyes were nearly squinted in delight.
However, Xiao Xiao wasn’t bothered by this level of flattery.
At so point, he had already opened his notebook again, reaching into his bosom to pull out a dry-brushed pen.
“To my knowledge, while ‘Heavenly Eye’ has a fixed na, it’s not a fixed magic spell…
It’s said that this spell can be precisely paired and constructed according to specific circumstances to adapt to various environnts,” Doctor Xiao said as he licked the pen, moistening its tip.
This eccentric habit did not upset ‘Half-Face.’
His tone didn’t falter in the slightest.
“Absolutely correct,” Half-Face, placing his feather pen into his front pocket, clapped lightly, praising, “Truly deserving of the title of ‘Doctor’!
Even at the top university, most students can’t distinguish between pairing and constructions during their first year…”
Zheng Qing wrinkled his nose.
He felt that Half-Face’s last comnt was insinuating sothing.
“Don’t rush,” Xiao Xiao waved his pen at Half-Face, interrupting his praise.
A smile appeared on his lips, “If you could give us a brief introduction about the ‘Heavenly Eye’— it would be best to use the eye in the Hunting Ground as an example—I believe we wouldn’t mind giving a few gold beans to make a bit of business for you.”
Doctor’s promise clearly piqued ‘Half-Face’s’ interest, but he turned to look at the other young wizards.
Zheng Qing and the others nodded in agreent.
In their view, if the Doctor proposed this request, he must have a reason.
It was just a matter of a few gold beans, they could afford to throw it away just to hear the sound.
‘Half-Face’ finally made up his mind.
But before explaining, he emphasized, “Perhaps I don’t know more than you do…
So it’s better not to be disappointed.”
” Even if you know more than by just one word or one sentence, it still has value,” Xiao Xiao sat back in his chair, holding upright his brush, signaling, “I believe I won’t be disappointed…
You can start.”
“Anything related to the ‘Heavenly Eye’ has exceeded the syllabus of the first university and is discussed by the researchers in the ‘Research Institute’…
But because spells related to it always co up in the hunt, I might know a little bit more than others.”
“As long as you stay at the first university for a little longer, you will inevitably have the chance to encounter these spells—like taking it in turns with the professors to guard the school’s Protection Array, or going to the Silent Forest for training when you’re in your third or fourth year.”
At this point, ‘Half-Face’ pulled out his feather pen from his front pocket again.
As he scratched his chin with the feather, he slowly explained, “As far as I know, there are dozens of spells that can construct the ‘Heavenly Eye’…
But I only know the commonly used four or five—like ‘Sky is Clear’, ‘Clearly Visible’, ‘Sky’s Manifest Thoughts’, and so on.”
“You can elaborate a bit more on this,” Xiao Xiao interrupted ‘Half-Face’s’ words, lifting his pen.
This left the ticket-seller a bit at a loss.
“I suddenly feel like I’ve beco a university professor,” he joked, clearing his throat and adding, “…For example, ‘Sky is Clear, and so goes our king’, ‘Sky declares dawn, and so you wander’, ‘There is brightness below, Watch Four Directions’, ‘Vastly the four directions, Clearly Visible’ and ‘Sky manifests thoughts, the sun keeps watch’…
That’s all I know.”
” Too fast, too fast,” Zheng Qing repeatedly waved his hands, complaining, “I only heard words like ‘Sky’ and ‘Four Directions’…
Can you explain in more detail?”
“Like how Professor Yao explains in his curse class?” ‘Half-Face’ asked with a beaming smile.
Young cost student nodded repeatedly, showing a flattering smile on his face.
“Do you all think I’m a professor?!” Half-face’s expression suddenly changed, the empty ticket stub in his left hand rustling in mid-air, “All I can tell you is that the aning of these spells is essentially about placing an eye in the sky to help you inspect around…
If you join a hunting team, you will definitely learn one or two related spells from your senior team mbers.”
This statent made Zheng Qing’s breath heavier.
The other mbers of Absolution exchanged knowing glances, taking note of this information.
