Chapter127-The Terrifying Snow Eagle!
The Snow Eagle quickly flew across the sky.
Standing on its back were a dozen or so figures from Crossbridge Academy.
At the forefront was Daniel.
This time, their target was the back mountain of Karea Academy.
"Daniel headmaster, the academy is in that direction,"
Eileen said, looking at the mountains below from the Snow Eagle's back.
Eileen had been specially brought along this time. Without her, they wouldn't have known the location of Karea Academy.
"It should be due to the magic array," Eileen continued. "That's why the academy is nearly invisible from the sky. But I can confirm that it's between those two mountains."
Looking down, Eileen explained.
From above, there had been no sign of any academy buildings—just endless mountains.
Upon hearing Eileen's words, Daniel signaled the Snow Eagle to stop.
It then descended slowly.
Sure enough, Daniel immediately sensed the presence of the magic array.
With a small adjustment, he removed the magic array's disguise effect.
Suddenly, Karea Academy was fully visible to the group.
However, despite seeing this legendary and supposedly powerful magical academy, everyone was unimpressed.
After having seen Crossbridge Academy, they didn't feel much awe toward this so-called renowned academy of the continent…
It seemed nothing special.
Eileen had always thought Karea Academy was the best on the continent.
But after staying at Crossbridge Academy for the past few days, she felt that her own Karea Academy seemed… rather ordinary.
Whether in terms of environment or other aspects, Karea Academy was only slightly better than Crossbridge Academy.
But the problem was, how many years had Crossbridge Academy even existed?
Almost all the improvements had been made in the past six years.
But Karea Academy?
It had been around for much longer, and in just six years, Crossbridge Academy had already caught up.
If this continued, wouldn't Crossbridge Academy surpass Karea Academy in just a few years?
And they dared to claim they were the best on the continent? After a few more years, it might not even be the best in the Free Federation!
After observing this so-called famous Karea Academy for a few moments, the group was uninterested and unimpressed.
"Eileen, tell me where the back mountain is?"
"Okay, Daniel headmaster, it's over there!"
Eileen pointed toward the direction.
Inside Karea Academy, below the mountain:
The students and teachers were all startled by the recent event.
Originally, they had thought a powerful spell beast was merely flying over the academy.
But they didn't expect that the huge spell beast would actually stop right above the academy, as if it wasn't planning to leave.
This scene immediately drew the attention of many students.
The teachers noticed as well, and soon reports were sent up to the house heads.
The house heads hurried outside and saw the scene.
However, even though a spell beast had stopped there, it didn't cause immediate panic.
After all, the academy had its own protective magic array.
Any spell beast that came near wouldn't be able to discover the academy's location.
But just as the house heads were considering this, suddenly…
The entire academy's magic array became completely ineffective!
The spell beast, which had been circling above the academy, now detected the academy's location!
The house heads immediately ordered:
"All students, quickly return to your dorms! The remaining teachers, come with me to fight!"
One of the A-level house heads said, his face grim.
Only they could stop this spell beast now.
The aura of the spell beast was incredibly strong, capable of breaking through the academy's magic array.
It seemed to be a formidable opponent.
The strongest combatants in the academy now were the house heads.
A powerful figure had already left the academy with Nora.
The entire academy descended into chaos.
Several house heads immediately made their move.
Each unleashed their most powerful magic without holding back.
In situations like this, there was no need for restraint.
Whatever the spell beast's intentions were, they had to take the brunt of the attack.
When they saw the combined attacks coming from below, the Snow Eagle was furious.
It hadn't even done anything yet, and the academy had already taken the initiative to attack.
With Daniel on its back, the Snow Eagle flapped its wings.
A powerful gust of cold wind poured from the Snow Eagle's wings.
Having spent years with Nina, it had eaten many special things.
This cold wind was a power it had awakened in Winterrealm.
In an instant, the magic attacks flying toward the Snow Eagle were all instantly frozen into ice sculptures.
They fell to the ground and disappeared.
The cold wind didn't stop there—it continued, sweeping down toward the house heads.
In an instant, a layer of frost appeared on the heads of the house masters.
Although the frost was quickly dispelled, the chilling wind left a deep impression on them.
The fact that this wind could freeze their magic so easily made them realize the strength of this beast.
Just a gust of wind, and they were already frozen, even if it was only a little. Could they stop this creature?
But now, only they remained.
The A-level house head was the highest-ranked individual present.
At this moment, he knew that only he could try to block the spell beast.
Just as he was preparing to sacrifice himself to stop the beast, suddenly, the spell beast flapped its wings again.
A multitude of ice spikes fell from its wings, heading straight for the group below.
"These mere ice spikes—break!"
One house head shouted, stepping forward.
He was most skilled in fire magic.
Mana surged through his body, and a giant fire barrier appeared in front of him.
It stopped the ice spikes.
But something utterly unexpected happened.
The ice spikes, upon hitting the fire barrier, actually froze the flames on the barrier!
"How… how is this possible?!"
The headmaster gasped in disbelief.
Normally, some spell beasts had bloodline abilities that humans couldn't match, but these ice spikes were clearly magic cast by the spell beast.
Did its magic have the power to freeze even other magic?
One ice spike pierced through the fire barrier and struck the headmaster's chest.
He hadn't even realized it before he collapsed, breathless, onto the ground.
The remaining house heads were shocked, unable to comprehend what had just happened.
They never expected such a thing.
At this point, the spell beast in the sky didn't continue its attack.
Instead, it flew toward the direction of the back mountain.
This relieved everyone present.
They hadn't expected the beast to be so powerful.
It could freeze magic itself!
Fortunately, the spell beast seemed to have no intention of attacking them further.
They all breathed a sigh of relief.
But then they remembered that one of the house heads had been pierced by an ice spike.
"I know healing magic; I'll check on him!"
"I'll help!"
Several teachers stepped forward, offering their help.
At this moment, it was the only thing they could do.
The A-level house head, still watching the spell beast's departure, noted that it was heading toward the back mountain.
The back mountain…
It should have nothing of importance, right?
As long as the spell beast didn't harm any more students, it would be fine.
Earlier, when Nora had killed all the A-level students, it had already caused a severe crisis for Karea Academy.
Now, they couldn't afford any more accidents.
