286 Chapter 286

Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, the sky was turning bright.

Warm and vibrant sunshine overflowed from the peak and sprinkled between the mountains, palaces, trees, and stones.

“Let’s go back.”

Locke stood up, dusted the weeds on his body, and said with a smile. He was not a person who would be easily hurt by love. After all, he had a lot of things to do.

Artemis waved her hand, and the two of them turned into a beam of light and headed for Locke’s residence.

At the same time, in an ancient tower in the depths of the Imperial Mage Academy.

An old man seemed to have sensed something. He opened his eyes in an instant, and a bright light flashed in his eyes. Then his body instantly disappeared. When he appeared again, it was already the previous position of Locke and Artemis.

“This aura is mysterious and powerful,”

The old man lowered his head and said thoughtfully. His old face was unprecedentedly serious. “It seems that there is an extraordinary figure in the academy.” At the same time, he frowned again. This aura was so mysterious and fleeting that even he could not find the position of the other party.

After searching for a long time, the old man finally gave up and disappeared again.

In the blink of an eye, Locke and Artemis had arrived at the courtyard.

“Dear brother, we meet again.”

Looking at Ares who just woke up and yawned, Artemis greeted him with a smile.

Looking at the smiling Artemis, Ares said with a stiff smile, “Hi, good morning.”

However, just as he said, he had caught Artemis’s position at the moment when she appeared in this city.

Ares handed a newspaper to Locke and said, “Locke, you have become an overnight sensation.”

Locke was stunned for a while. When he saw what was in the newspaper, he finally knew what Ares meant.

On the front page of the newspaper, it read, “The talented girl Irene Peter broke up with her useless boyfriend Locke Capet last night.”

How could the news that he broke up with Irene be on the headline of the newspaper?

Locke picked up the newspaper and looked at the picture on it. This newspaper was similar to the one Locke had seen in Scilar Magic Academy. The picture began to move, just like the cartoon Locke had seen in his previous life. The content of the picture was the scene he met Irene in front of the building last night.

Locke was speechless. He didn’t know who was so leisurely recording the scene with the photo stone.

Most importantly, the shooting angle of the master of the photo stone was very tricky. First, he shot from Locke’s angle, showing the mutual affection between Irene and Walter. Then he shot from Irene’s perspective to show Locke’s loneliness. Finally, a big panoramic view was presented to create a sense of conflict.

Then it was a text description and an interview of the witness. In the end, he even quoted the information leaked by the insiders. This generally meant he had won Irene’s sympathy through some special means and became Irene’s boyfriend in a despicable and shameless way.

Looking at the so-called inside information, Locke couldn’t help laughing, feeling very interesting.

Shaking his head, Locke returned the newspaper to Ares and said, “Since everyone is here, let’s get ready to go.”

Artemis pondered, “I’ve seen the situation in your body. With Asclepius’s current strength, it’s probably impossible to solve the problem.”

Locke’s face froze and his heart sank. He naturally wouldn’t doubt Artemis’s words.

“We’d better go back first. Maybe there is another way.” Seeing Locke’s pale face, Artemis shrugged and patted Locke on the shoulder. “Don’t be so rash next time.”

“There is a powerful person in this academy…”

Ares said in a low voice, looking at the depths of the Imperial Mage Academy.

A powerful man?

Locke was a little stunned and didn’t know which one he was talking about.

“This should be the so-called level-10 master on this continent.” Seeing the confusion on Locke’s face, Artemis explained slowly. While saying this, she shook her head. “I don’t know whether the other party is an enemy or a friend. The small universe that Locke practiced is too special. If the other party finds anything wrong, it may cause trouble. So we’d better go back and ask Asclepius to consider ways .”

A level-10 master!

Locke’s pupils trembled slightly. There was a level-10 master in the Imperial Mage Academy!

According to folk records, there had been no level-10 masters in Icacia Continent for a thousand years. The gods of the old age and the level-10 masters… Now it seemed that there were many unknown secrets on this continent.

“Okay.” Locke only felt that he had cooled his ardor. He had thought that the problem could be solved by Asclepius. But now it seemed that it was really a little difficult.

With a wave of her hand, a glass of red wine appeared in front of Artemis. After taking a sip of the red wine, she looked at the door and asked, “Is that your friend outside?”

Locke released divine consciousness and found a familiar figure coming this way.

Looking at Artemis lying enchantingly on the chair in the yard, Vanessa couldn’t help but pause for a second. As an elf, she was more sensitive to the breath of life.

She sensed a mysterious and powerful aura from her body.

Locke said, “Welcome, Vanessa.”

“Thank you.” Vanessa came to her senses and sat down with a smile. “Locke, what’s your next plan?”

Locke sighed helplessly. “I’m going to go back to my territory first.”

Vanessa nodded slightly and said in a low voice, “I know you urgently need holy relics that can heal the wounds in your body.”

She paused for a moment and continued, “There is the water of life in the elf race, which can heal the foundation wounds.”

The water of life?!

Locke was stunned for a moment. When he realized what had happened, he began to breathe rapidly. The most urgent thing for him now was to find a way to heal the wounds in his body. He looked at Vanessa, waiting for her to finish her words. After all, the water of life was a treasure on the Icacia Continent.

Sure enough, Vanessa continued, “However, even in the elf race, the water of life is still a treasure. Normally, the probability of human beings wanting to obtain water of life is almost zero. But this time, there happens to be a chance. The elf race is in trouble. If you can help to solve this problem, you can obtain the water of life.”

“Now that we know that the elf race has the water of life, then it’s easy.” Ares chuckled and cut in, “The worst result is that we can directly grab it.”

Hearing this, Vanessa’s face froze, and then she smiled helplessly.

Locke cleared his throat and thought, ‘Vanessa is still here. Isn’t it a little inappropriate for you to say that you want to rob her clansman?’

Vanessa didn’t seem to be angry. She chuckled and said, “Sir, with all due respect, not everyone can enter the elves’ territory.”

Ares shrugged his shoulders and didn’t argue.

“So, have you made up your mind?” Vanessa looked at Locke.

Locke had a certain understanding of the elf race. Although the elf race was currently inferior to the dragon race, it was also one of the top races on the continent and not everyone could provoke it. The trouble that could make the elf race helpless and need the help of outsiders was probably not simple.
