Gate of the Cross

Chapter 258 Crossing the Underpass

"Ajie, so you're going to the University of Magic?"

In the hotel in Flange City, after hearing Xinjie talk about this matter, Gene shook his head regretfully, "I can't go with you this time. The teacher asked me to guide the next group of newcomers, and they are also beginning to prepare to pass the full-time test."

"Me too." Xueyu Dragon Soul said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Xiaoxin."

"I can," Nanali said with a smile, "The teacher said that I don't have to worry about the guild at all."

"But..." At this time, Komuro raised his hand and said weakly, "Didn't Ajie just say that he wanted to investigate things about ghosts, then you..."

"Well, Ajie, I suddenly remembered that my random shooting has been showing signs of a breakthrough recently, and I still won't go with you."

Before Xiaomyo's words were explained, Nanali rushed to say. After she finished speaking, everyone around her smiled, arrogant and arrogant.

So, after discussion, in the end, only Saber and Nagato Youxi followed Xinjie to the University of Magic to investigate this matter. Others either had something to do or could not go together for some other reasons.

Originally, Rin Tosaka was also going to come with Xinjie, but the Magic Guild invited her, and after soliciting Xinjie's opinion, she still went to participate. It was the annual newcomer qualification inspection conference. As a few palace magicians in the Kingdom of France, she was naturally invited.

Considering that there was no danger in this investigation, Xinjie asked Rin Tosaka to participate in this inspection conference, and he went to the University of Magic with Saber and Yuki Nagato.

After all, these two are the two most powerful of them now. In case of any accident, you don't have to worry about them.

So, before continuing to look for the door of the cross, the three Xinjie embarked on the road to Salena again.

"University of Magic? Then you have to go to Abanis Village first. It is not the first time that the mayor of Jenova has met with Xinjie. When he heard him say that he wanted to go to the University of Magic, he patiently explained: "The University of Magic has no portal, only the nearby Abanis Village, but the two are not far away. If Mr. Xinjie plans to go to Abanis Village, he must first pass through the underpass to Abanis, where there are many fierce demons..."

"Father, don't worry. If it's Brother Xinjie, it definitely doesn't matter. Brother Xinjie, don't you think so?"

spoke by the mayor's daughter, named Lori Ann, a 13-year-old little Lori, who blinked her big eyes and looked at Xinjie with worshipful eyes.

"Lorian, don't be unruly!"

Hearing the children say this, the mayor Areda scolded.

"Lorian is right. The mayor doesn't have to worry."

Encouraged by Xinjie, Luo Lian was even happier. She turned her head to make a grimace at Arrada and spit out her tongue.

"Well, this daughter is spoiled by her mother. Don't be surprised by Mr. Xinjie and the two ladies." Areda said helplessly.

"No, Lillian is very cute," Xinjie shook his head. "In that case, we will stay soon."

"Have a good journey!"

"Brother Xinjie, remember to bring me something back!"

After Xinjie, Saber and Nagato Youxi left, Areda sank his face and said, "Lorian! How can you treat Mr. Xinjie like this? You should know that he is the noble palace swordsman of the Kingdom of France!"

"So what?" Lorian was not afraid of her father's face at all. "Brother Xinjie is very gentle to people. Otherwise, how could there be two sisters around him? Humph, I will marry someone like Brother Xinjie when I grow up!"

"You really..." Arrada sighed and didn't know what to say.

"Is this the underpass to Abanis?" Looking at the dark cave in front of her, Saber frowned. She personally hated the dark.

"Yes."

Xinjie looked at the map in his hand and said, "We also walked this road when we went to the Bezrem maze before. All right, let's go down."

"I'll go down first, and I hope you can come down last!"

Saber said to Nagato Youxi and jumped down first.

Xinjie shook his head, knowing that Saber was for his own safety and didn't say much, and the second one jumped down. Changmen Youxi followed closely, followed by the two of them also gently jumping into the underground passage.

The cold and humid breath came to my face, and the underground passage was even more black and I couldn't see my fingers.

Xinjie tried to reach out and touch it around, but he touched the soft object and gently rubbed it twice. It felt good.

Saber?"

"It's me."

Changmen Youxi's voice came, and Xinjie suddenly reacted. No wonder the size was wrong.

He calmly withdrew his hand, and Saber asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

"I regard Youxi as you," Xinjie replied truthfully, "Can you find a way to show us the way? This is very inconvenient."

"Yes, but it will consume magic. I can feel that there are monsters here. It's better to save magic as much as possible. Youxi, what about you?"

"Yes."

As soon as the long gate Yuxi's voice fell, Xinjie and Saber felt that their eyes lit up, and the road ahead was suddenly illuminated clearly by a bright light source.

Xinjie went to Changmen with hope and saw a small street lamp in her hand. Although it was not large, the light was bright and soft. And her expression was also the same as usual - no expression, and there was no change at all because Xinjie had just touched her two, which was calmer than Xinjie.

"Sure enough, it's the Ming God of Changmen," Xinjie said secretly in his heart.

Saber also nodded, "Thanks to you." With that, he took the street lamp from Changmen Youxi's hand and walked to the front.

The three of them didn't say anything and walked silently. Suddenly, Xinjie felt that Saber in front of him stopped, so he also stopped, "What's wrong?"

"There is a fork in the road. I don't know how to get there." Saber turned his head and looked at Xinjie with a helpless expression.

Seeing her expression, Xinjie suddenly remembered what happened between her and Tosaka Rin in the Bezrem maze, and expressed a great understanding of her mood at this moment.

"Let me see..." Xinjie took a few steps and looked at the three fork roads in the left, middle and right. There seemed to be no difference. "I think it's better to go to the right. Youxi, what do you think?"

Although he has always believed in his sense of road, Xinjie still turned his head to ask for the opinion of Changmen Youxi during the cautious period. After all, it would be a waste of time if he took the wrong road here.

"Right."

So the three walked along the fork on the right and encountered the stairs not long after walking.

"If only I could have been with you at that time."

Looking that both of their judgments were correct, Saber couldn't help sighing. Looking back on his and Lin's experience in the maze, it was simply ruthless.

At this time, all three of them raised their heads and looked into the distance.

"They are coming!"
