Chapter 210 Tragische Ouvertüre
The ga was about to begin. Soon the two lowered their hands and returned to their original positions with smiles. They rotated their wrists and knees as they began to warm up.
"Banner, what happened?" Cullen could feel the faint coldness in Banner’s eyes when he returned and whispered, "What did he say?"
"Just so ridiculous joke," Banner said slightly. "No need to care. Are you ready?"
"We’ve finished warmups."
"Good." Banner lowered his head and chuckled softly. "Tell everyone to get ready. No matter whether it’s him, his friend, the little girl, or the dog ... I'm going to make them kneel outside and watch their own defeat!"
He clenched his still painful fists, with his eyes full of rage. The residual pain in his palms seed to penetrate into his bones, making him feel the long-gone humiliation. It felt like a fla burning his heart.
He glanced across at the enemy. When he saw the last musician with his weird headgear, his expression beca guarded. If there was anything in the music history departnt that deserved their caution, it would be this guy who did not show his face. From the beginning to now, the guy had not exposed himself to them. He hid his powers and dealt with matters easily, no matter what the situation was. An unknown enemy was the most worriso.
"Countdown begins now," the referee's voice sounded. "Five, four, three, two...one!" In an instant, the whistle rang, and the ga finally started.
Everyone's body tensed, but then Banner saw Ye Qingxuan’s suddenly spring forward and steal the ball! At the beginning, all the musicians prepared to play, in favor of defense, but this guy gave up his defense and took the initiative.
Banner sneered. The musicians of the other departnts might be intimidated by his trick, but the School of Summoning would not, let alone soone from the School of Royalty who studied both.
He closed his eyes. In the darkness, a pair of beastly eyes seed to light up. It was the phantom beast that grew in his brain—the manticore.
"Marchosias!" he whispered its true na and suddenly opened his eyes. His pupils, quickly, elongating into the slender pupils of a beast.
With the swing of his hand, the ring on his finger lit up. He pressed his palm down, and crisp piano sounds burst into the air. The piano was sharp and grand, like a lion’s roar. Five shadows sprang from his body. They were the projections of the demons in his mind. But then, a sharp sound burst from the arms of the young man opposite him.
Jiu Xiao Huan Pei!
Bang! Countless strings were played at staggered tis, but the sounds overlapped, becoming sharp and harsh, and piercing ones eardrums!
This was composite note playing, but at a more advanced level, because all the notes were played simultaneously. This was a complex technique that could only be done with multiple stringed instrunts. The musician controlled the sound of all the strings according to the different order and level, and mixed the sounds into one chord with absolute control. The more strings, the harder the chord was.
After Jiu Xiao Huan Pei absorbed the large amount of spirituality, Ye Qingxuan managed to achieve the level of six chords, which ant...Six notes were released in an instant.
In a sudden, layers of mirrors proliferated behind the youth, forming a looming mirror matrix. Fierce light shone from it imdiately after.
In a sudden, it seed that everything dimd. Pure light rushed forward like a canon and everything seed dim in contrast. The sharp light stung everyone’s eyes. The light ca like a tidal wave, causing Banner to freeze. His mind beca blank for a few seconds due to the intense stimulation.
Just in an instant, the manticore, who was in the middle of projecting, scread. The shadow trembled under the intense interference of the light. The strong light disappeared, but the world was still dark.
The soccer ball was already under the youth’s foot.
"Ye Qingxuan!" Banner roared while the beastly shadows around him paused. They scread and the five shadows instantly turned into a consolidated blackness.
The five dark shadows quivered and suddenly rushed toward Ye Qingxuan’s direction. Although they were the manticore’s projections, they were all different. So were like giant scorpions, so like pythons; others were silhouettes of dragons, or had the posture of a lion, the determination of eagles...These were the five animal characteristics that the manticore contained.
The five completely different kinds of beast fused together and ford the manticore’s strength. Now they split up and projected out, charging at the youth with five different forces. This was one of Banner's special techniques.
In the previous gas, Banner used this trick to defeat the other team’s offense right at the start. When he charged forward, his teammates also showed their abilities, pulling out instrunts and alchemy equipnt to play lodies surrounding the rest of Ye Qingxuan’s teammates.
In an instant, the whole frontline pushed forward like a boulder rolling from the top of the mountain. The history departnt’s situation beca grave, but this was what most people had expected. With the music history departnt's strength, it was taken for granted that they would be defeated at the opening. But this ti they were destined to be shocked.
As the five shadows attacked, Ye Qingxuan leisurely advanced with the ball, going straight toward the shadows. His fingers played in the air. The next mont, a dark lody was produced unexpectedly.
Like sadness surging from the heart, it swept through the field, instantly chilling everyone’s hearts. The music sounded tortured and brought lancholy that was engraved in one’s mind. The five shadows froze abruptly. In the sound of the music, the beastly spirits beca sluggish under the influence of the aether...
The stands were silent. Ludwig suddenly stood up with a startled expression. "Tragische Ouvertüre?" he mumbled blankly. "What's going on? How can that kid play the Tragische Ouvertüre from the School of Summoning?"
Silence overca the professors’ seats. Most of the professors who had identified the song were astonished. At the very front, Ingmar of Revelations seed to think of sothing, and his face grew serious.
No way...
-
At the sa ti, a startled feeling overca Banner. In the School of Summoning, Tragische Ouvertüre was practically a compulsory course, but its extre difficulty was also a big problem for graduate students. As an auxiliary music score, it could greatly enhance the phantom beast’s nature so that it could transform and enter into an upper level. It also produced the sa effect on enemies. But now, the effect had been reversed. It was degeneration...degenerating in sorrow!
In that cold and sad lody, the five shadow beasts suddenly shook and involuntarily began to tremble. In the end, the shadows gradually blurred under the influence of the lody. The originally strong beastly nature was consud bit by bit until it was eaten away and could not be maintained anymore.
How could he...How was it possible?
Banner’s face changed and he subconsciously swore. His eyes grew cold and he slamd his hands down. It was the sa lody, the sa Tragische Ouvertüre, with the sa sound. The two lodies overlapped each other, but Banner's performance was more intense and sharp.
"Marchosias!" he roared the phantom beast’s true na in a low voice. The aetheric wave strongly fluctuated around him. In the midst of the wave, a fire was ignited.
The illusory silver firelight tossed violently, and a large figure erged from it. It was the demon nad Marchosias, which was the most powerful phantom beast bred and fed by the Adrian family through the generations—the manticore!
The lion suddenly roared. Ye Qingxua’s lodies in the roar’s path shook violently and then collapsed?!
In both the East and West, lions had their own unique status. The monks said that a lion’s roars could silence all heretics.
Then the manticore jumped out of the void. This ti, Banner no longer used projection, but directly put the phantom beast‘s seed in the aether and gave it a physical shape. After centuries of inheritance, it seed to have grown abnormally old, but there was still a fierce light in its eye was a fierce light. It was a burning fire.
When it trampled on the field, the grass withered. When it breathed, a lion’s fierce roar echoed in the wind. This was the monster created by combining the generation power of the Adrian family and deep research of Summoning music theories. People familiar with it knew that it was created by the musician for their enemies—it was a musician killer!
It was good at finding the living and it could disturb the enemy’s music. With sharp claws, it could easily tear shields. Its speed was swift as a shadow...It was best at jumping from the dark, tearing through shields, putting all strength into one blow, biting off the enemy’s throat and pulverizing his skull!
The mont the old manticore landed, coldness flashed in its eyes. Suddenly it blurred and disappeared. Banner looked at the enemy and sneered. When the manticore appeared once again, it would be the mont the enemy was killed!
But Ye Qingxuan was not panicking as he had expected. Instead, he seed to be hesitating, but soon, his hands swung down again. This ti, he perford a sharp sound.
The disorderly music echoed around his body. It was like countless swords rubbing with each other, a wire being pulled by a winch, and nails scratching the blackboard. It made one’s scalp prickle. There was no rule to it. It was neither a music score nor a lody—it was pure cacophony.
The noise influenced the aether disorderly so that the aether zone in his perception fluctuated suddenly. Countless faint silver points of light collided with each other, producing crackling sound.
No one could understand his performance. Was this guy going to blow himself up?
But in the irregular lodies, the disappeared manticore vaguely revealed its figure. The illusory figure quietly moved forward. In the extrely chaotic noise interference, the aether changed without pattern and revealed the manticore’s trace.
The youth raised his wrist and put two rings on the forefinger and middle finger of his left hand. He pointed the two fingers at the manticore. Then, the two separated fingers slowly closed like a pair of small scissors.
