After preparing for transmigration, Xia Yuan, a top player of storyline mages in his previous life, transmigrated into an NPC, and was even the fourth son of the newly born Duke of the Empire!
<...Chapter 255: Testing
Time passed, and the day of school opening soon arrived again.
After listening to Avis' analysis of the pros and cons and rethinking it, Fiona chose the Pamir Summoning Academy just like she did in her previous life.
The Summoning School is almost the easiest of all the schools. The biggest emphasis is on the strength of the contracted summoned beast, followed by various secret techniques related to the summoned beast. It is indeed very suitable for young girls to slack off.
The special summoning secret rituals passed down by the Pamir Summoning Academy are indeed unique.
It was left behind by Emperor Gloria himself. It was once a secret method hidden by the royal family of the ancient magic empire and a relic of the peak period of magic level in human civilization.
Even the Olivendi family could not find a secret method of the same level.
The initial summoned creatures through this kind of arcane magic array usually have good strength and a good soul compatibility with their masters.
As the customary freshman entrance ceremony ended, Anvis sent the girl to the Dragon Tower of the Summoning Academy. After encouraging her to bravely participate in the welcome ceremony, he returned to the Academy of Mysteries and Relics alone.
After showing his student ID card, Avis appeared in the hall at the top of the tower with a faint light.
As an old student, he can directly enter the top floor lobby with his identity badge.
"Anvis, you're here."
Many old students had gathered in the spacious hall. When they saw Avis appear, a red-haired girl next to him nodded to him in a friendly manner as a greeting.
"Hello, Rebecca."
Anvis also smiled and nodded, greeting her.
Rebecca is the fourteenth daughter of Viscount Palin. In the apparently unpopular Pamir Mystical Academy, this status is neither high nor low.
She chose the mystical school out of her own interest and her family's arrangement.
She has loved tinkering with mysterious things since she was a child, and she has a certain talent in this area. Viscount Palin simply sent her to Pamir to gild her so that she can add some value to herself when choosing a marriage partner in the future.
According to the tradition of the Gloria Empire, after a descendant of a noble officially graduates from the Professional Academy, a coming-of-age ceremony will be held, and he or she will officially become an adult in a social sense from then on.
Of course, if she could break through to level seven before graduation, she would have the right to choose her own marriage partner, but that was basically impossible unless a miracle happened.
“There are a lot more new students this year, and their quality seems to be much better than in previous years.”
Looking at the projection in the crystal ball, Rebecca played with a magic metal hexahedron and expressed her own comments.
It was a small toy commonly used by mages to practice multitasking. Different inscriptions were engraved on each of the six sides. Only when the runes on two or more sides were correctly outlined with mental power at the same time would the inscriptions glow.
"Especially the green-haired boy. Look, he has broken through half of the trap and is almost touching the door to the treasure display room!"
"This year's freshmen are indeed much larger than my class."
Looking at the nine pictures in the air, Avis nodded, confirming the girl's evaluation.
Not only that, he even knew why this happened.
Yes, because he is here.
Most of the extra new students probably came because of him.
In a year, the information that Duke Carrot's fourth son had chosen the Pamir Mystic School should have spread.
Everyone who learns of this news will doubt his purpose, and may even extend it to the Olivendi family behind him.
Why would the direct descendant of the Grand Duke of the Empire choose such an unpopular school that would do little to improve his strength?
Could it be that there are some unknown special secrets in the Pamir Mystery and Relics Academy? There are many people who have such thoughts. In addition, according to the prophecies in recent days, there may be some freshmen who have chosen other branches and temporarily transferred from other branches.
As Avis watched, two more pictures lit up, making a total of eleven pictures.
Interestingly, there are only two boys among the freshmen this year, and the rest are all girls.
One of them, Anvis, looked familiar. He seemed to be a member of the children's tea party at Moonfall Castle when he was young and a descendant of Viscount Wynn.
This was a common practice among these small and medium-sized aristocratic families. They used their own male and female offspring, through marriage, to tie those talented enough people in the academy to their chariots.
Profits and "love" are good ways to develop a family. This is what Avis learned in etiquette class when he was a child. . ….….As two magic hours passed, the first new student finally appeared with the light of transmission.
It was the green-haired boy who successfully cracked the mystery of the entrance to the showroom of strange objects, but did not delve deeper into the secrets in the showroom. Instead, he immediately picked up the inscription plate on the table and ended his exploration.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
After coming out, he glanced around the crowd, his eyes paused for a moment on Avis, but quickly turned away.
After a while, the second and third freshmen also successfully passed the level.
It was not until the last freshman left the mirror space that the silver-haired female mentor Nancy appeared.
As in previous years, she distributed awards to many freshmen and announced the school rules and admission agreement. Then, she looked at Avis meaningfully and left again.
Next was the same dinner party as last year, but the difference was that the atmosphere this time was a little strange.
First, a newcomer asked about the first place in last year's welcome ceremony, and then the topic was intentionally or unintentionally shifted to Anvis.
Some senior students noticed the unusual atmosphere and couldn't help but look at Avis strangely.
Anvis responded with a smile, and wrote down the names of these new students. He planned to investigate them after returning to find out which families were behind them and whether there was anything he could do about them.
When leaving, Avis received a special letter. The envelope was made of a special magic-blocking material that could not be penetrated by mental force.
This was delivered by a girl from the School of Protection. When Avis asked about it, she told him that the letter was given to her by a senior and she didn't know what it was, but she just said that it should be delivered to him.
After thanking the girl, Anvis declined her other invitations and returned to his residence with the letter.
After entering the laboratory, Avis took some protective measures and, under the cover of the space isolation array, used his magic metal arm to open the letter.
Inside the envelope was an invitation letter made of pure gold. On it was a black-gold scepter with a hollow ring on the top, and in the ring was the 'Eye of Truth', which symbolized omniscience.
He was very familiar with it, as it was the invitation letter from the Zhenzhi Society.
