Chapter 20 Roommate

In her previous life, she had been living in the school dormitory since high school. At that time, there were eight of them in a room, with bunk beds. Every day when they got in and out of bed, the bed boards would make a creaking sound.

Sometimes a bed can't bear the weight and it collapses, as hers did.

The dormitory is full of academic masters. At night, they turn off the lights and use flashlights to secretly read under the covers.

The college entrance examination is cruel, but also full of hope. It can change the fate of most people. In her case, she is a beneficiary of the college entrance examination.

She was born in the countryside, but has a stable and decent job.

Before she traveled through time, she was dating her blind date. They had similar educational backgrounds, stable jobs, and steady incomes. If nothing unexpected happened, they would soon get married.

I can’t say I liked her that much, but we both wanted to start a family, so we got together.

She had never been in love in her previous life. Firstly, she was slow to learn, and secondly, studying took up almost all of her time.

By the time she realized it, the good ones had already been picked, and she was unwilling to compromise with the rest, and then... then the only option left was blind dating.

At that time, her mother was very worried about her marriage and complained that why she didn't secretly find a partner while she was studying?

She would jokingly say, "Didn't you tell me to study hard and not fall in love too early?" How did her mother respond at that time? Haha, she almost laughed out loud.

'I didn't let your sister have a relationship, but she still found someone secretly. You even covered for her and conspired with her to deceive me!

You are so capable, why can't you be more capable? You are just stubborn! Look at what so-and-so brought back from high school...'

She didn't remember who the neighbor was, but if she really took him back then, her mother would definitely be angry with her.

"Hey, are you here? When did you come?" The girl who was tidying up the sofa looked up at her.

The girl looks very ordinary, but she has a pair of smiling eyes, which makes her look lively and lively.

"I came here yesterday and have been sleeping ever since."

"You can sleep well."

"You must be tired. Your home is far from here?" Another girl came out with a mop.

Although there are household robots, she feels that they are not cleaning properly and prefers to do it herself.

The girl's facial features are small and delicate, and her skin is slightly yellow but very delicate.

"It's okay, just a week." Her two roommates looked very diligent and were busy cleaning up the living room.

They also discussed from time to time how to arrange things and what to add, and Yun Xiang also joined in.

The three of them got to know each other. The girl with smiling eyes was called Qiao Mai, and the girl with small and delicate features was called Suga Min.

After finishing the work in the public area, Yun Xiang returned to his room to pack his things.

In the evening, the three of them went to the cafeteria to eat together, and they immediately became closer. All three of them were 2-star residents, and their family life was ordinary, so it was easy for them to resonate with each other and they were compatible.

The gathering time was the next afternoon, and they planned to visit the school during the morning break.

Mercury Academy has been built over the centuries, and its facilities are now quite complete. The buildings are majestic and imposing, inspiring awe.

The sculpture at the gate is an eagle about to spread its wings and fly, which means "great ambitions".

Oh, yes, that’s the sculpture that You Hao almost bumped into. It’s easy to imagine that his ending was not a good one.

Entering the gate, there is a very large square, where some important matters, announcements, activities, etc. are usually gathered and announced.

There are many round pillars standing in the square, and the carvings on the pillars are all famous people who have made great contributions, as well as their profiles and great deeds.

They exist in every industry, but they all have one thing in common: they come from Mercury Academy.

Standing here and looking at the life stories of these people, you will suddenly feel awe and the ambition to do something great.

Almost none of the students who come here to attend the meeting will desert the class. It’s not that they dare not, but that they don’t want to, which forms an invisible mental constraint.

Mercury Academy also has its own unique way of punishing students who make mistakes. They will make them come here to reflect on their mistakes in front of the pillars.

They would also be made to run around pillars, and occasionally be asked to recite or copy the resumes of these characters. Those with serious circumstances would be recited in front of all the teachers and students in the school.

The teaching building complex is shaped like the Big Dipper. The top of the dipper is the comprehensive building, which is used by the first and second grades. The remaining buildings are for each department.

Outside the building complex are some bases, including training grounds, botanical gardens, farms, plantations, etc.

Mercury College has a 6-year curriculum. The first two years are preparatory courses. The first year is full of basic courses, such as plant identification, plants that can be picked for medicinal and edible purposes, how to handle them respectively, and how to deal with aggressive plants?

Where are the energy crystals from different mutant plants distributed? How can they be harvested? And what are the habits of mutant animals?

How to deal with the breeding season? Which part of the body is most effective? How to decompose the corpse of a mutant animal without destroying the energy of the internal tissues? ...

Among them, physical and mental training classes have become practical classes.

In the second year, students are arranged to transfer majors, learn the basic knowledge of each major, and have some special experiences, etc., so that they can position themselves more accurately when choosing subjects in the third year.

Don’t underestimate the preparatory courses, they are actually more demanding than those after choosing a major.

In the last four years, you will specialize in your own major.

Mercury College has a total of eight departments, namely the Political Science and Management Department, the Command Department, the Manufacturing Department, the Alchemy Department, the Equipment Refining Department, the Formation Refining Department, the Talisman Refining Department, and the Nutrition Department. Each department is divided into many majors.

For example, the Department of Political Science and Management is divided into the Law Department, the Political Management Department, and the Command Department, a pure combat major. After graduation, you can either join the military to open up new areas or form your own mercenary team. No matter which path you choose, there is room for development.

The manufacturing department includes the development and extraction of energy, combat weapon manufacturing, civilian machinery manufacturing, etc.

The alchemy department, equipment refining department, etc. are relatively simple, and the final nutrition department includes planting majors, breeding majors, cooking majors, etc.

There are dozens of majors, big and small, which shows how huge it is.

In the afternoon, Yun and the other two gathered at the big square on time.

When new students report, the principal’s speech is indispensable, and the content is nothing more than encouragement, admonition, and imagination of the future.

The principal's surname is Jin. It is said that he was born in a wealthy family. He is also a high-level weapon refiner and is very powerful.

The principal has a beard, dresses like a scholar, and has an elegant temperament. From his appearance alone, you really can't tell that he is a weapon refiner. He is the type who keeps a low profile.

It is worth mentioning that You Hao’s punishment was to recite the deeds of Lin Huanxu in front of all the teachers and students. Lin Huanxu was a young family head who was only 30 years old and a true young hero.

He had participated in interstellar exploration, repelled beast hordes, and rescued planets besieged by mutated plants. He had single-handedly won the highest honor for his home planet and was a regular on the Union Alliance Honor List...

If you pick out any resume, you can't finish talking about it in three days and three nights.

At this moment, You Hao became more and more excited as he recited, without embarrassment or shame. This is the power of heroes, the power of young people.

This is a gentlemanly principal who gives the most vivid first lesson to all freshmen in the school.

You may not become a hero, but you must be a passionate young man with a heroic spirit. Even if you make mistakes, you must have a sense of remorse and awe in your heart, and you will grow into an upright and kind person.
