For intelligent beings, witnessing their own kind being eaten is an extremely cruel thing. The intense feeling of disgust almost made Luo Ning vomit on the spot.
Raising his hand and lightly touching his forehead, Luo Ning cast "Clarity" on himself. The cool aura swept through his mental sea, and Luo Ning quickly calmed down.
Lowering his head to look down at the small Vampire baring its fangs and screaming, Luo Ning's killing intent solidified into ice in his eyes.
Extending a finger, the small Vampire spontaneously combusted.
Second-level apprentice spell - Ignite. A very cruel composite spell, usually used by magicians to abuse and kill their enemies. Before burning, it draws grease from an unknown Star Realm and pours it on the prey. This grease is extremely flammable, and it will not extinguish even after the prey is burned to ashes.
The small Vampires burst into shrill wails. They rolled on the ground in the pile of bones in pain, and one even wanted to jump into the drainage pool to put out the fire, but Luo Ning kicked it back.
The sharp howls subsided after two minutes. After the small Vampires turned into motionless charcoal, Luo Ning began to search the cave.
Luckily, Luo Ning found two Blood Orchid flowers in the dining area (corpse pile). These are the main ingredients used to make mental potions.
It's quite laughable that the main ingredient for apprentice mental power enhancement potions, worth hundreds of gold coins, grows in such a bloody place. This made Luo Ning couldn't help but marvel at how wonderful nature truly is.
In addition to the Blood Orchid flowers, Luo Ning also found some coins and standard weapons. These should belong to a novice adventurer team, but it seems they were unlucky. The subjugation failed, and they all fell here.
After collecting the spoils, Luo Ning used Modified Fireball to directly collapse the cave entrance. Then, he returned to the town and sold the standard weapons to the town chief at a discount. After that, Luo Ning embarked on his journey back.

It was two days later when he returned to Snowman City.
Luo Ning, covered in dust, didn't even bother to wash up and prepared to go to the academy to confront Anna.
Luo Ning had already prepared his speech in his mind. He would reveal the other party's ugly side in front of everyone, making it impossible for her to survive in the academy from now on!
Joining up with the equally disheveled Students, Luo Ning couldn't wait to rush towards the distant building.
Entering the academy required passing through a building.
This building looked very much like the castle tower of his previous life, covered with scars from knives and axes. These were the traces left by the years.
This building had a very impressive name, called Swire Grand Magician Tower.
Established during the late stage of the Second Era Human-Demon War, it has stood for more than nine hundred years.
Its existence is not only used to resist foreign invasions but also to guard the town.
Snowman City can gain such a great reputation, largely due to this "Swire Grand Magician Tower".
The Magic Academy is built near the Magic Tower, and the current Tower Master is the director of the academy's security department.
Due to the preciousness of magicians, the Magic Academy's security is very strict!
How strict is it? The Arcane Eye at the top of the Swire Grand Magician Tower allocates a portion of its computing power to provide security services specifically for the Students.
The service includes monitoring personnel entering and leaving.
Once it detects that you have ulterior motives or harbor hostility, you will be immediately marked.
Then, you will be handed over to the City Guard for arrest. Afterward, if you cannot prove your identity, then what awaits you will be a lifetime in the dark mines.
Apprentice mentors are accustomed to the existence of the Magic Tower, and they do not feel any discomfort from the Arcane Eye's illumination from the top of the tower. Luo Ning stood in the detection area as usual, and then waited for the blue light to light up.
Several people next to him were also apprentices who had just returned. Although they were dirty, their faces showed excitement. They talked loudly to each other, thinking that the trial mission should have been passed.
The blue light did not light up for a long time. Just as Luo Ning was wondering why the inspection time was so long, the scanning blue light suddenly turned red.
At the same time, a loud roar sounded in the air.
"Luo Ning · Lannister, you shameless scoundrel, you dare to come back after committing such a big mistake! ! !"
The red light emitted by the Arcane Eye focused on Luo Ning. The Students who were being tested at the same time instantly retreated far away. In the blink of an eye, Luo Ning was completely isolated.
Resist?
The thought didn't even dare to arise.
Even if Luo Ning was promoted to a Formal Level magician now, he wouldn't dare to act rashly within the Magic Tower's attack range. In the original body's memory, there were scenes of Formal Level Professionals being blasted into slag, so Luo Ning obediently raised his hands.
After Luo Ning indicated that he would not resist, a team of fully armed nobleman Soldiers walked out from behind the low wall. They tied Luo Ning with ropes and then rudely Push push him into the academy.
Luo Ning's prisoner-like appearance attracted many Students pointing and gossiping.
"Is this the despicable villain who molested his teammates during the trial? He does look very evil, that black hair is simply the incarnation of a demon."
"I heard he's from the Lannister Family. He's simply disgracing the family."
"Can he even be a nobleman?"
"Ashamed to be associated with him!"
Accompanied by the discussions along the way, Luo Ning was taken to the academy's law enforcement hall.
"Report, the prisoner Luo Ning · Lannister has been brought in."
Following the Soldier's report, Luo Ning only felt his shoulder being pushed hard, and then he fell to the floor.
The magic lights lit up, and Luo Ning saw the faces of the people around him.
All of the academy's leaders were present. In addition, there were also the student union's management and so on. Luo Ning also saw Anna, whom he hated so much, among them. At this time, the other party was leaning against the arms of a frivolous golden-haired man like a bird.
This bitch! ! !
"Luo Ning · Lannister, do you know your crime."
A voice of righteous words came from above. Luo Ning tried to stand up, but the nobleman Soldiers kicked Luo Ning's knees from left and right, and Luo Ning fell to the ground again.
The embarrassing appearance caused the crowd to laugh softly. Luo Ning gritted his teeth to control his emotions. Losing control would only make these people laugh at him even more. He must not follow the script they wanted.
Not allowing him to stand up and speak, Luo Ning simply sat down cross-legged.
The silent resistance made some people frown. Seeing that their master was unhappy, the lackeys raised their spears and prepared to swing a stick at Luo Ning, but they were stopped by the leading Noble Dean.
The Noble Dean looked at Luo Ning with scrutiny, and then gave a contemptuous sneer.
"Luo Ning · Lannister, I have seen many juniors like you who have done wrong things. After you commit a crime, most of you think that as long as you deny it to the death, then no one can judge you..."
The Noble Dean looked down at Luo Ning condescendingly. Usually at this time, the person involved who was pointed out his thoughts would not dare to look him in the eye, but Luo Ning still looked at him directly, his gaze not retreating at all, which made the Noble Dean feel very uncomfortable.
He hated this kind of "unyielding" gaze.
It reminded him of his Marquis father-in-law, whom he had executed. At the time of the execution, he also looked at himself with the same gaze as if looking at a clown.
"Seeing your expression, you are obviously not prepared to admit it. Then Anna, please recount Luo Ning's violence against you."
After hearing this, Anna pretended to sob twice, and then walked to the center of the stage with the support of the frivolous golden-haired man.
The lighting engineer didn't know what he was thinking, but he actually gave her a spotlight, and the scene looked like the heroine of a stage play was taking the stage.
From the appearance alone, Anna does have this qualification.
She also knows very well how to arouse men's desire to protect her. She raised her hand and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, making a look as if the past was unbearable to look back on.
The pitiful appearance made the hearts of the male listeners melt, and the condemnation of the villain Luo Ning became even more intense.
"This guy has completely disgraced the face of the nobility!"
"Let the Lannister Family execute him."
"Execute him! ! !"
After taking a small wave of rhythm, Anna began to accuse Luo Ning of violence.
"Lord Luo Ning forced me to drink alcohol under the pretext of cultivating tacit understanding, and then took advantage of my drunkenness to suddenly break into the room and push me down..."
"He threatened me that if I dared to resist, he would leave me alone on the road..."
Speaking of this, Anna shook her shoulders and made a delicate and pitiful cry.
Seeing the beauty crying sadly, the surrounding people condemned the villain Luo Ning even more.
