Chapter 22

Swoosh!

However, when Archmage Rodney shouted, the cold-faced Hughes turned his body slightly and waved his hand. Golden mystical energy instantly gushed out from Lorelei’s secret tome and instantly formed two golden long spears, the golden long spears brought with them an extremely sharp wind as they flew towards the vital parts of Ferri’s throat.

“You!”

Ferri had not expected that Hughes would react so quickly. Moreover, the latter did not seem to have any defensive stance at all. Instead, there was a chilling killing intent within his icy cold eyes.

That killing intent made Ferri understand that even if he were to fire the magical gun in his hand again, the latter would definitely take his little life away in an instant.

Risking his life.

At the thought of this, a hint of panic flashed across Ferri’s eyes. He clearly did not have the courage to exchange his life with Hughes, so he could only clench his teeth and lean his body to one side, intending to cut off his wrist.

However, when he leaned over, his pupils suddenly widened.

It turned out that Ferri, who leaned over, actually saw two golden spears. It was like shooting stars chasing the moon in a race. The head of the second golden spear was connected to the tail of the first golden spear, and from his perspective just now… there was only one golden spear.

“How is this possible?”

“When?”

This was Ferri’s last thought before he died.

Chi!

The two golden spears were like two golden sharp arrows. One pierced through Ferri’s arm, while the other pierced through his throat.

The golden spear brought out a smear of fresh blood. Then, without losing its momentum, it stabbed Ferri into the ground.

The changes in the arena happened in the blink of an eye. When everyone came back to their senses, they saw that Ferri’s throat had been pierced by the golden spear, and they were all shocked.

What was going on?

How did Hughes kill Ferri?

Hughes did not pay attention to the shocked audience. He walked to Ferri’s side and picked up the black pistol.

Upon closer inspection, the pistol was glowing with black light. The surface of the black special alloy was covered with obscure magic arrays. Hughes held it in his hand and fiddled with it. Then, he held the handle of the pistol and looked at the sky carefully.

“Magical gun…”

Hughes looked at the magical gun that was emitting a faint light under the sunlight. He smiled faintly, but his smile was a little cold. This kind of magical gun was not used for training. Instead, it was a kind of magic weapon with great destructive power, some powerhouses who had reached a certain level of strength were able to engrave some magic arrays on a special alloy. The user only needed to gently pull the trigger and they would be able to unleash a rather powerful magic attack.

To make a magical gun, one needed a special alloy called the black alloy. This alloy was extremely expensive to make. In addition, to make a magical gun, one needed to have extremely precise control over the magic energy. Moreover, the failure rate was extremely high, therefore, this was one of the reasons why magical guns were so rare. The one in Hughes’ hand right now, judging from its manufacturing technology, was probably a person of the grand magic level. Even if they were hit by it, they would suffer quite a heavy blow.

Ferri really wanted to kill him.

“What’s going on?” Archmage Rodney rushed onto the stage. He looked at Hughes and asked.

Hughes did not care at all and threw the magical gun in his hand to Archmage Rodney.

Archmage Rodney looked at the magical gun in his hand. His expression quickly darkened. However, when he turned his head to look at Ferri, who was stabbed into the ground… there was a hint of sadness in his voice. “Ferri took the liberty to use the magical gun after the competition ended.”

“Magical gun?”

Many of the surrounding students had their attention focused on his words. When they heard the words ‘magical gun’, they were instantly in an uproar.

“How shameless. He even took out the magical gun!”

“As expected of the young patriarch of the number one family in San Pedro. He was really rich. Hehe.”

“However, even though that’s the case, Hughes killed him after all. Will Ferri’s family let him off?”

“I don’t know! It seems that Hughes will have a hard time in the future!”

…

The white-haired old man and Archmage Clyde also rushed onto the stage. Archmage Rodney also walked over and explained the situation. Then, everyone saw the white-haired old man… his expression turned extremely angry.

“Dean, although Ferri was in the wrong, after all, Hughes killed someone. I think this matter should be dealt with seriously,” Archmage Clyde hurriedly said when he saw this.

“Clyde, do you mean that you want my disciple to stand there and be shot by the magical gun? Or do you want to wait until my disciple is seriously injured or killed by him before you’ll settle the matter?” He had not seen the person but had heard her voice first.

When this voice sounded, Hughes immediately recognized who it was.

Very soon, Kate’s figure appeared in the arena.

Kate’s gaze was slightly cold as she glanced at Archmage Clyde and said, “What do you want?”

“It’s not that I want to do anything. The Lach Academy has rules. This kind of matter should be handled according to the rules,” Archmage Clyde said indifferently.

Kate’s eyes flashed coldly. He was about to say something when he was interrupted by the white-haired old man. He looked at Archmage Rodney and asked, “How should we deal with this?”

“According to the rules, Ferri would have been expelled from the Lach Academy and the whole world will know about this incident.” Archmage Rodney replied after thinking for a moment.

Archmage Clyde’s expression changed drastically when he heard this. If this matter was made public, then Ferri’s family would really be disgraced. No one would dare to do business with them in the future.

“However, Hughes is guilty of murder after all. If this matter is let go, I’m afraid the Ferri family will have a hard time explaining themselves!” Archmage Rodney said after a pause.

At this point, the white-haired old man shook his head. Then, he looked at Archmage Clyde and said, “Sigh, I’m old and useless. My eyesight has been a little worse recently.”

When Archmage Clyde heard the white-haired old man’s words, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he bowed respectfully.

“However, he has violated the rules. How about this? He will be punished to go to the church every day!” The white-haired old man said to Archmage Clyde with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Archmage Clyde bent even lower.

“Alright, that’s it for today! I’m a little tired, I’ll be going back first.”

Only after the white-haired old man had left for a long time did archmage Clyde dare to straighten his back and wipe the sweat off his forehead.

Because he knew that the dean was just beating him up.

At the same time, he was also using his own mouth to warn Ferri’s family that he was not dead yet. If anyone wanted to interfere in the matters of the Lach Academy, he would give them a severe blow.
