My Cell Prison

Chapter 370: 3 vs 1
The three individuals surrounding Han Dong were among the top of this year’s group of Apprentice Knights in the library.

The first one.

It was Nelson, the cross-dresser who had previously damaged a puppet in the benchmark test through the dark internal explosion.

Like Han Dong, an apprentice who learned Black Magic and was proficient in Shadow Magic.

Shadow Magic itself possesses a very strong corrosive nature.

Moreover, Nelson had integrated an ‘Explosive Element’ into the shadow which maximized the damage of Shadow Magic. It was able to break a Magic Shield in one hit.

The other two apprentices were not ordinary either.

Kononing Hall.

His body was as powerful as that of the Cross Crusader, and he emitted a domineering aura that was rarely seen among magicians. He was an incredibly rare close combat mage, specializing in Fire Magic.

Fate Equipment – “Bone Fire Reincarnation Ring”.

Thanks to the ‘Magic Condensation’ effect of the ring, he could freely condense two flaming fire blades.

This kind of magic weapon was different from ordinary weapons.

The fire blade could freely change its length during attack, it could spray flames directly from the blade part… even changing its form.

The last female apprentice among the three was named Sabrina Hill.

She was a Light Magician, but not the common support class Holy Light Priest… instead, she was a very rare Offensive Light Law.

This gave her a unique charm, a queen-like radiant temperament that was quite uncommon.

Moreover, she had no interest in the handsome and aloof Dumps, who was recognized as the most powerful and talented… she even wanted to defeat Dumps herself in order to prove her own strength.

At the beginning, Han Dong had appeared with Dumps following the Deputy Curator.

Currently, he was refusing the proposal to join forces with her.

Therefore, these three regarded Han Dong as Dumps’ companion that must be dealt with in advance… and in their eyes, the difficult one to deal with was only Dumps.

Kononing, with his Fire Blade, directly launched a full frontal assault.

The other two attacked from the side at very tricky angles.

All three of them understood that the magic shield provided by such a ‘Magical Cloak’ was extremely fragile… if any one of them could touch the magic shield outside Han Dong’s body, the battle would be over.

“Forming factions privately… that’s not good for you,” muttered Han Dong.

However, with many magic teachers present, Han Dong could not fully unleash his firepower… he had to counter magic with magic as much as possible.

Close Combat Mage – Kononing took the lead, his fire blade extending to one meter.

It was even vaguely visible that the dragon’s head was appearing at the end of the fire blade.

He launched a double strike, cutting once up and once down.

At the same time.

Nelson released five shadow spheres the size of ping pong balls from the side, which would explode as soon as they got close to Han Dong.

As for Sabrina, she moved to a very tricky position.

With her index and middle fingers combined, a large amount of light dots emerged from her fingertips. Like bullets, they rapidly shot towards Han Dong…

The three types of attacks came from different directions.

And all were multi-attacks that were difficult to dodge.

Han Dong, hiding in the corner, had no possibility to dodge… his fragile magic shield could break at any time.

Moreover, such a joint attack could not only break the magic shield but also cause great damage to the body. Normal magicians could be seriously injured or even die.

Ding!

Boom!

Continuous explosions were heard from the point of contact.

Several teachers in the air originally planned to intervene and prevent casualties during the midterm examination… However, they were all stopped by Lady Hera.

This was because Lady Hera knew one piece of ‘information’.

Some time ago.

One night, while chatting with Dumps in a ‘private residence’, she asked a question.

Lady Hera, who was leaning on Dumps’s shoulder, did not have the usual seriousness of the deputy curator. Her fingers lightly brushed Dumps’s arm, and she asked:

“Mr. Martin… This batch of students seem to have a lot of promising talents, doesn’t it?

The grandson of Captain Kaimon, and I heard even the daughter adopted by the Great Blacksmith-Heidrig is among them.

Are there any you’ve taken notice of?”

“Both of them are impressive, it seems Abe’s body naturally holds a terrifying Berserk Beast, and Winry has a physique that’s probably unique in the Holy City… However, I can barely deal with them.”

“Haha… So, isn’t the knight selection two years later going to be completely your personal show? By that time, I, the direct tutor, will be very proud.”

“It’s not that simple. Teacher, have you heard about Mr. Black White taking on a student?”

“Oh? The crow is taking on students?”

“Some time ago… I had a sparring match with this student.”

Lady Hera was somewhat surprised as Dumps’ nature didn’t align with sparring with others… after all, in this batch of library students, practically none could truly have a 1V1 real combat spar with Dumps.

Dumps’ regular real combat training is done with Lady Hera in her role as deputy curator, directly asking senior students to cooperate with him… even making some lecturers spar with Dumps.

“So, how did it go? Did that student hurt you? Among this batch of students, there should be nobody who can beat you, right?”

“I lost.” Dumps answered very frankly.

“…You’re joking, how could my Mr. Martin lose? Did you go easy on him? Or did he use some insidious tactics you’ve never seen before?”

“No, I really couldn’t defeat him… speaking of, that student seems to be interested in magic too, he may come to our [library] to study and learn.”

Lady Hera did not believe Dumps would lose and continued to ask about this matter, “You lost? What is the other party’s background?”

“I’m not really sure… except that he was selected by Mr. Black White as soon as he entered the school, leaving his strength aside.

His plotting, layout, and detail control are no worse than mine.”

Lady Hera was a little unhappy, “If this person really comes to [the library], you directly bring him to meet… I want to see what kind of genius this is.”

……

At present.

Lady Hera, who fixed her gaze on the magic explosion point, muttered under her breath:

“If he was eliminated at just this level… The so-called defeat of Dumps in the spar was obviously just because Dumps was in poor condition that day.”

However.

When the dust risen by the shadow explosion dispersed, everyone in the field were stunned… which of course included the magic teachers.

“[Rare Species-Sand System]!? Isn’t the black magic he’s proficient in Crow Class?”

In the corner area.

One indestructible barrier of sand was enveloping Han Dong.

The surface of the barrier even had a dark gold ‘Scarab Beetle’ mark stamped on it…

“What is this?”

When close combat mage Kononing’s fire blade fiercely slashed at the barrier’s surface, only a few sand fragments shattered under the force, causing him to nearly split his hand open.

Before he had time to react.

A spike formed from a beam of yellow sand suddenly pierced through his body’s magic shield.

Eliminated…
