Water and Fire Twins Magician

Jacques finally accepted Fei'er's invitation.

To Jacques' surprise, Fei'er looked very happy and almost jumped to help Jacques with the registration procedures.

"Is their team so short of people? They even need to find freshmen to fill the vacancies?" Jacques didn't understand. According to Fei'er, the reward for this excavation mission is so attractive that many senior students should be eager to participate. It shouldn't be difficult for Fei'er to find teammates.

Jacques became famous that night and was undoubtedly the best among the freshmen, but his advantage became less obvious when competing with many seniors. Moreover, as a freshman, he had never participated in any extracurricular activities of this type, so it was still unknown what kind of help he could bring to the team.

Could it be that Fei'er discovered some special talent of Jacques that is very suitable for this activity? Or is it that this activity is too dangerous and the team needs some weaker freshmen to serve as cannon fodder...

"Forget it, we'll work it out when the time comes." Jacques stretched himself and said, "Anyway, if I can't hold on any longer, I'll just open the magic door and go back to the Magic Research Department~"

"I advise you not to do this. It's cheating," said Gandalf.

"Cheating?" Jacques rolled his eyes and his expression became evil: "How can these two words sound so good? Well... I will enjoy the fun of cheating in the future!"

The excavation of the frozen abyss is usually held in the late autumn before winter, with the first snow after winter as the climax. If the weather is not cold enough, no good things can be dug, and when winter comes, the frozen abyss will become too dangerous and no longer suitable as a training ground for students.

After Fei'er helped Jacques sign up, there were still two weeks before departure, and Jacques had plenty of time to prepare for the journey. Because this excavation mission required a long stay in the abyss frozen soil, the longest time could be three months.

The news that Jacques was going to challenge the excavation of the frozen abyss quickly spread throughout the Ministry of Water Magic.

Fans offered various warm clothing, panaceas, and other tools necessary for the journey, which was very thoughtful. Since it could save a lot of time and money, Jacques was not polite and accepted all the orders.

During this period, Jacques was quite relaxed, but he spent less time in the Magic Research Department than before. That was because after breaking through the bottleneck, he seemed to have lost his direction. Therefore, Rhode agreed that Jacques should participate in the excavation of the frozen abyss to experience the new environment and challenges and change the way of cultivation, which would be very helpful for the next stage of cultivation.

But Bella, who has always been playful, had no intention of going with Jacques this time.

"I'm afraid of the cold just like the boss. When it snows, Bella will wilt and go into hibernation..." Bella pretended to be sick and said, "I'll just stay here, basking in the sun and drinking the old man's holy water. This is the best way for Bella to practice."

"With your ability, hasn't anyone invited you to participate in extracurricular activities?"

"Yes, what's it called... The Tree of Life Treasure Hunt..." Bella yawned, "There's no fighting, and it's not a bonfire party. A bunch of people squatting together eating dry food and digging holes! How boring!"

"But the materials we dig up can be used to make weapons and armor. Don't you want them?"

"Weapons? Is that what you mean, Boss?" A huge pea sprouted from under Bella's feet, flexibly growing around her body like a vine, like a cobra. Then it casually smashed the ground, creating a long crack. The whole house seemed to have experienced an earthquake, knocking down Rhode's books, instruments, and the like.

This was the first time that Jacques saw Bella summon plants other than vines, and it seemed that his understanding of magic had also improved. Indeed, Bella was a plant-summoning earth-attributed magical beast, and her requirements for weapons and armor were certainly not as high as Jacques's.

Jacques was relieved to learn that Bella would not appear in the frozen abyss.

However, just as he was about to set off, Bunyan and his companions brought him an unexpected news.
