Chapter 1037 Travel?

Duanmuhuai didn't know what Asuka Tanaka was thinking, but soon after that, he learned that Asuka Tanaka had scored among the top 20 in the country in the mock exam, and it became a big news in the staff room—— —After all, although Kuoh Academy is a private university, its teaching level is actually very average. This is just like the top scorer in the college entrance examination in an ordinary school. It is considered news.

Then when Duanmuhuai went to the music classroom again, he saw Asuka Tanaka appearing in her seat again and giving a victory gesture to Duanmuhuai.

Duanmuhuai just glanced at her and nodded.

After all, this is the secret between the two of them - it is certainly not appropriate to bring up other people's daughters to deal with their own mothers.

The return of Asuka Tanaka has completely stabilized the somewhat unstable situation of the wind band club. Although it is not good to say this, Taki did say that Asuka Tanaka is the most indispensable person in the alto group. Although Kumiko Huangzen's skills are pretty good, Asuka Tanaka is currently irreplaceable. If she cannot participate in the national competition, Natsuki Nakagawa will have to replace her.

But Natsuki Nakagawa only started practicing euphonium in high school, and her skills and proficiency are not very good. Replacing Asuka Tanaka is too much pressure for herself... Fortunately, now that Asuka Tanaka is back, everyone is also He breathed a sigh of relief.

Everything is going smoothly, even Naruse Mio's magic teaching has shown certain results. Professor Fulilian's human magic system is indeed very suitable for beginners like Naruse Mio who don't use their brains and rely more on their feelings. . Although the progress is not fast, in Duanmu Huai's view, at least if Naruse Mio encounters a fallen angel or something, she can at least run away if she can't defeat him.

But Fulilian was obviously not satisfied with this.

"Training alone is of no use. In many cases, actual combat can bring experience."

While flipping through the magazine in her hand, Fulian spoke.

"Actual combat..."

Duanmu Huai was not surprised by Fulilian's suggestion. He was actually a practical person, but the problem was...

"Is there such a place?"

Faced with Duanmuhuai's inquiry, both Rias and Wanria shook their heads.

This is not a fantasy world like Fulian, nor is it like the end of the world. The human world here on earth is very peaceful, and there are no such things as Warcraft dungeons or mutants.

"Are there no monsters in this world?"

"How could it be possible? Things like monsters are very rare now. Although there are monsters, it is not the same as before. We also need to maintain peace with the monster forces."

"So you can't find anything to fight?"

Duanmu Huai spread his hands helplessly. It felt like the world now. Most areas had their own countries, so it was basically impossible to fight. The rest of the world is just a small fight at most, and things like stray demons can't be encountered everywhere.

"But isn't there a monster here?"

As she spoke, Fulian spread out the magazine in her hands. Everyone went over to take a look, and saw the words "The Mystery of the Antarctic Monster" written on the large title...

"…………"

Duanmuhuai silently picked up the magazine and looked at the cover. Isn't this one of those street gossip magazines? He still remembered that he had seen similar magazines at the train station when he was a child. They were basically filled with all kinds of strange stories, such as "The Mystery of the Bermuda Triangle", "The Legend of the Savages in Shennongjia", and "Tell You the Unknown". "The Other Side of XX" and stuff like that.

It was basically all made up, but there were many people who bought it. After all, the train time was long at that time, and everyone wanted to have some fun to pass the time, right?

Having said that, no one mentions Bermuda anymore. In the past, even movies used it as material.

Anyway, he was idle, so Duanmu Huai picked up the magazine and flipped through it. The content of this story was quite interesting. It is said that a foreign Antarctic expedition team unearthed a mysterious ice coffin and brought it back to the research station. As a result, the frozen monster inside woke up and killed everyone in the research station. Only one person escaped... ……Um?

It seems like you have seen this story somewhere?

"What's wrong? Mr. Duanmu?"

Looking at the complicated expression on Duanmuhuai's face, Mary asked curiously, and Duanmuhuai handed over the magazine. Mary took the magazine and turned it over.

Then the expression on her face became very strange.

"Antarctica..."

"Yes, Antarctica..."

"What happened?"

Seeing the speechless expressions of Duanmu Huai and Mary, Naruse Mio and Wanria also came over curiously. After reading this article, they seemed very speechless.

"Isn't this kind of boring third-rate gossip everywhere?"

"That's right..."

As Duanmuhuai spoke, he turned on the Internet, and sure enough, he found this report on the Internet. It seems that Japan's third-rate tabloids are similar to China's, all imported and sold domestically. Of course, those who reported this news abroad were not serious newspapers, but also small newspapers that mainly focused on gossip news.

Of course, the topics it reports are different from the headlines used by Japanese sideline magazines to attract attention, and appear more rigorous. The news content mainly stated that a mass casualty incident occurred at a scientific research station in Antarctica, and only one person survived. In court, he claimed that monsters killed the members of the scientific research station, and only he survived. And what he killed was not a human being, but a monster disguised as a human being.

However, the court certainly did not take this seriously. His lawyer also excused him by citing mental problems caused by long-term isolation at the Antarctic scientific research station. In the end, the survivor was acquitted and sent for psychiatric treatment.

The Japanese tabloid compiled a story based on the survivor's oral account and published it in domestic newspapers.

Of course, when ordinary people see it, they will definitely smile knowingly and pass it off as a joke.

But Fulilian comes from a fantasy world where monsters run around. In her opinion, it is not surprising that there are such strange monsters.

As for Duanmu Huai and Mary... well, it was completely a case of being bitten by a snake. They had not forgotten what happened when they traveled all the way to Antarctica to rescue Charlie.

It's hard to say if it were any other place, but Antarctica is really evil. It wouldn't be strange to say that there is some kind of space monster or old ruler hiding here.

Moreover, Duanmu Huai is a true god. As a god, his intuition is quite accurate. So when Duanmu Huai saw this news, he immediately felt that something was not right, and that's why he was so concerned about it.

Duanmuhuai searched again and found that this matter had been really popular abroad for a while. To put it simply, the incident occurred at an American scientific research station, when personnel at the rear received a distress signal. When they arrived, they found that the entire scientific research station had been burned to ashes, and only one person survived. At first, they thought it was a fire at the scientific research station, but after inspection, they found that the corpses in the scientific research station all had traces of fighting, so they began to suspect that the survivor himself was the murderer, and traces of gasoline and other traces were also detected on his hands. , it is basically certain that he set the fire.

So he was arrested as a murderer. However, after the survivor woke up, he committed suicide several times and claimed that what he killed was not a human being, but a monster disguised as a human being... Of course , the judge will not believe this kind of rhetoric that is similar to that in a third-rate science fiction horror movie. However, the man was eventually acquitted after his lawyer argued that he was mentally unstable.

This incident also caused quite a stir abroad. Several psychology papers used this as a basis to explore the psychological problems of members of the isolated scientific research station that was closed to the outside world. There are also papers that believe that the survivor does not really regard other people as monsters disguised as humans. Maybe the relationship between them has not been good, and then the bullied survivor regards other people as monsters that threaten themselves. From a psychological level To rationalize his murderous behavior, etc...

After reading several newspapers, magazines and weekly articles to confirm that it was true, Duanmuhuai also made a decision.

"When the holiday comes, let's go to Antarctica."

Later, Duanmuhuai made a decision.

"Huh? Is this necessary?"

Rias and Naruse Mio were somewhat surprised when they heard Duanmuhuai's decision. In their opinion, this was just a story compiled by a third-rate tabloid. How could Duanmuhuai want to run to the Antarctic after reading it? ?

"Mary and I have had similar experiences. In Antarctica... to be honest, it's hard to say. To be on the safe side, it's good to go and have a look."

Duanmu Huai shook his head.

"Besides, you don't need to take it too seriously. If it doesn't work, just treat it as a trip abroad. Going to Antarctica for scientific research is also popular."

"I've heard of traveling abroad, but this is the first time I've heard of traveling to Antarctica..."

Naruse Mio's expression was somewhat complicated. She had heard before that some students in the class would take advantage of the holidays to travel to places like Paris, Hawaii, etc. This is understandable, but if you travel to Antarctica... To be honest, it feels like a completely different dimension.

Rias looked at this scene curiously, with a somewhat complicated look in her eyes. Kiba Yuto and Tashiro Koneko later confessed and explained to Rias. After all, no matter what, their actions almost brought unimaginable consequences to Rias and the Demon World. Of course, Rias, as their master, did not pamper them and gave each of them a few spanks.

However, what impressed Rias the most was the description of Duanmu Huai by the two. According to them, when the fallen angel cadre talked wildly about going to war with angels and demons, Duanmu Huai didn't react at all. However, just when they said they wanted to destroy the city, Duanmu Huai suddenly became furious and beat them both to death on the spot.

From this point of view, the Tribunal is still dominated by humans. The war between angels, fallen angels and demons has nothing to do with them, but daring to involve humans is another matter.

It's the same now. It's obviously just a gossip report from a third-rate street tabloid, but they actually want to go to Antarctica to investigate?

Is it because these things pose a threat to humans?

But if you think about it carefully, angels, fallen angels and demons obviously don't pay attention to these things happening in the human world...

Thinking of this, Rias blinked.

"Teacher Duanmu."

"Um?"

"Can our Occult Research Club also go together? After all, it is Antarctica and we have never been there."

"no problem."

Duanmuhuai glanced at Rias, then withdrew his gaze and nodded.
