Chapter 78 School Starts 03
"Also, we got some news from other students." Dean Kong tapped his fingers evenly on the table, making a regular tapping sound. He thought for a while and looked at Jiang Yuelu, "Do you know Xia Yi?"
Jiang Yuelu frowned unhappily.
"This is really troublesome..."
Dean Kong murmured, "You should have told us earlier."
His expression turned scary, and Jiang Yuelu couldn't help wondering, "Even if he is one of the twelve city masters, there is no need to be so afraid, right? Since you have checked everything, you should know that he has not caused any harm to the academy through me."
"Lord of the Capital?"
Dean Kong turned around and was extremely surprised. "Who told you that he was the Lord? Himself?"
"No, I guessed."
"I think so. Our students have never seen the Ghost King himself, so they can't recognize him. The students recruited from outside will be even less likely to recognize him."
Jiang Yuelu felt a little dizzy.
He stopped Dean Kong who was about to continue speaking, "Wait, who did you just say he was?"
"Ghost King."
There was silence in the room for a full minute, with only the ticking of the hands making the sound.
The burly man suddenly slapped his thigh, "Ah, did I forget to say that?"
Jiang Yuelu had nothing to say.
Dean Kong touched the back of his head and laughed heartily. He patted his shoulder and almost hammered him into the ground, "Why didn't you say so earlier!"
Jiang Yuelu pressed his aching shoulder and climbed up, "..."
Is he really the head of the hospital? Why does he look so unreliable? ? ?
"You said... Xia Yi, he is... the Ghost King?"
"Yes. Absolutely."
Jiang Yuelu just found it unbelievable.
"From what you just said, no wizard has entered the Ghost City for many years. You only learned about Ji Hongcha after she escaped. How can you be sure... Xia Yi is the Ghost King?"
Dean Kong restrained his expression and said, "Of course it's because I have evidence."
"Many years ago, the academy and the ghost world agreed on a time to sign a covenant. The wizard sent me as the candidate, and the ghost world sent Xia Yi. I will never forget the person who signed a life and death contract with me face to face, not to mention that he is a ghost king who is rarely seen."
“So I recognized him the first time I saw him.”
Dean Kong stared at his own reflection in the glass. His face already showed signs of aging.
"So many years have passed, but he hasn't aged at all." It seemed as if time had stopped for that vicious young man, preventing him from aging or growing up.
"His style of doing things is still the same as before. There is no method at all. It is hard to tell what he wants to do. However, his maliciousness and gloating spirit are no different from the one he showed when he sat at the negotiation table that day."
"Thanks to the peace covenant signed that day, we have been able to confront each other peacefully until today. The family in the academy who are good at calculations had already calculated that the variables would appear in the next few years. We all thought it would be a child from various wizard families, but we didn't expect..."
Dean Kong looked at him with a complicated expression, "I didn't expect that he would be a student who came from outside, had no foundation, and was quite old."
Damn, what did I do to offend anyone when I was twenty-seven years old?
Jiang Yuelu said coldly: "I don't have to be admitted by you."
"But now you have to keep running for the academy. The academy has always been suppressed by the ghost world. Now I heard that a student killed two evil ghosts in a row, which instantly broke the structure of the Twelve Ghost Witches. During the few days when you were injured and unconscious, the information about Shuren Girls' High School has become the biggest hot news in the academy."
Dean Kong saw that he wanted to speak, and said at the right time: "Besides, you will still go to Ghost City in the future, after all, your relatives are all there."
Jiang Yuelu looked at him suspiciously.
"Are you doubting that I'm lying?"
Dean Kong thought about it and said, "Okay, I understand."
"If you don't believe me, I can make a life and death contract with you. If I tell even a single lie about your relatives, my entire family will be killed without a burial place."
Jiang Yuelu's gaze fell on the little rabbit on his shoulder. For a father, this was an extremely cruel oath.
After a while, he asked, "Over there in the ghost city..."
He said that, which meant he was willing to cooperate. Dean Kong immediately laughed heartily: "I've asked someone to investigate. Two ghosts died in a row. There's chaos over there. It may take some time. In the next few days, you should go to the academy for classes... Do you know your class?"
Jiang Yuelu looked at him speechlessly.
"Oh, I forgot to say that again!"
“…”
-
After coming out of the dean's office, Jiang Yuelu didn't rush to class.
He checked his test records first. He had been in a coma for three days after coming out of Shugao. Just after waking up, he was called in for an interview. He had no chance to open his student card.
Walking to the corridor window where the light was good, he pulled out the small card and quickly looked through it.
The score was not much different from the last time in Iron Town, and the reward was a weapon for exorcising demons, which was a bit shabby compared to the mask for worshiping gods that he picked up in Shop 18.
What is of interest is the last line of text record:
[Candidate Jiang Yuelu, your shrine is now open]
"A shrine?"
Jiang Yuelu was full of questions.
Fortunately, there is a detailed description below the text. After a rough look, I found that the shrine is a piece of heaven and earth for gods, which can be understood as a temporary residence of gods in the human world. Because Jiang Yuelu chose himself as the god at the beginning, he also had a small shrine, but because he was a weak "god", the shrine was invisible and could not appear until it was triggered at the height of the tree...
"Ah..." He remembered.
Could it be related to the reason why he was shattered to pieces?
Recalling the voice of prayer that had entered his mind at that time, overwhelming him with despair and wailing, his head still ached slightly. He frowned and scanned the last description.
【Name: Test God】
【Dependents: 0】
【Believers: 2,347 people】
He knew that the believers probably counted all the female high school students who prayed at that time, but what did this dependent mean? Jiang Yuelu was just wondering when he suddenly heard the familiar female voice of the system.
[You can now enter your own shrine, Master Kao-sama]
Jiang Yuelu was surprised: "It's you."
This voice was the same one he heard in Flatiron Town. Later, after entering the examination room in Paperman City, the system that had been guiding him in answering questions was also hers.
[I am Vice President Tong, who developed the examination system. My main responsibility is to guide the entrance examination for the new students. I am no longer responsible for the subsequent examinations.]
Her voice was still as gentle as it was at the beginning, but perhaps because she had left the examination room and came to the academy, it sounded even more elegant and noble.
[I am also responsible for the course selection, class division, class and examination process of the academy. In addition, I will also take on some tasks that I have never done before, such as guiding the newborn gods in their next direction.]
The newly born god...
Jiang Yuelu sighed, "Okay. What should I do next? Go check out the shrine you just mentioned?"
[I suggest this]
The shrine is still stored in the student card, occupying a very small grid. It looks gray and inconspicuous on the outside. When you take it in your hand, you can see that the black wood looks like a recycled firewood stick. When you get closer, you can see the delicate and ancient animal patterns and auspicious cloud patterns. The innermost part is empty and there is no statue of the deity.
It was good not to see his statue standing there. Jiang Yuelu breathed a sigh of relief.
He still didn't know how to use this thing, "How do I get in?"
The system said a wise but foolish philosophy: [My heart follows my actions...]
Okay, let's give it a try.
Jiang Yuelu closed his eyes, and the weak connection was like a small bridge, quickly connecting him to another world. When he opened his eyes again, he had jumped from the academy to a narrow altar in front of him. How small was it? Let's put it this way, it could barely fit an altar, and the table was about the size of a single bed.
If he stood there again, the space would already be a bit cramped.
[When you have dependents in the future, you can bring them into the shrine to bless them. I have also put the amulet symbolizing the identity of your dependents into your card, and you can give it to your dependents.]
I don’t know if it’s because I entered the shrine, but I always feel that the system’s words sound more respectful and sincere, as if it is talking to him with its head lowered...
【Do you have any ideas about the candidates for dependents? 】
"not yet."
And it was really hard for him to imagine that this small place could accommodate more people.
As if it could see what he was thinking, the system began to explain again.
[Don't worry about this. As you gain more followers and more followers, the offerings you receive will gradually deepen, and your power will grow. The shrine can be expanded. And you can also build the environment here according to your own preferences...]
"Don't worry about this for now, we'll talk about it later."
Now he has to go to the academy.
-
Considering that he was famous in the academy, he had to disguise himself when he entered the academy. It was not difficult to exchange a few points for □□.
Under the grand inscribed sign, there stood two students wearing red armbands, one holding a notebook, and the other carefully looking at the students coming in. Looking at the attire of these two people, Jiang Yuelu couldn't help but wonder, could they be the legendary discipline committee members who check the appearance of the students?
The students of the wizarding academy are more mysterious and unrestrained than those in real life. Their attire is really too colorful. When they reported that day, people wore all kinds of clothes.
If there is no unified arrangement for appearance, then the students who come in every morning will include a little Taoist priest in a yellow robe flying and wielding a sword, and a mysterious female scholar in the jungle wearing a veil and riding an animal... Jiang Yuelu learned the above news from the whispers of the two people next to her.
He is confident in the way he dresses.
Because he was wearing the uniform issued by the academy. The most worrying thing was his face, but now it has been perfectly disguised and will not cause confusion.
He walked in with a calm and composed pace. The man with the red armband looked at him, nodded and let him in.
"Wait a moment." A steady voice sounded behind the man with the red armband.
The two students with red armbands were very surprised. They looked at each other and saw panic in each other's eyes. "Um, Chairman, does he have any questions?"
As they said this, they glanced at Jiang Yuelu again. However, no matter how they looked at her, they could not find anything unusual about this ordinary student.
President?
Jiang Yuelu stopped and looked.
The man was older than any other student he had ever seen, but he was no older than 18. However, his behavior was much more mature than that of his peers. He stared at Jiang Yuelu for a long time with his deep brown eyes, and the tenacity of a blunt knife seemed to break through the disguise on his face bit by bit.
Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly heard the chairman speaking and letting him go, "It's okay."
Jiang Yuelu: “…”
After finishing his words, the calm chairman returned to the pillar behind the school gate and stood straight with his elbows folded, as if a second stone pillar had grown there. The red armband student didn't understand what was going on and waved at him, "It's okay, you can go in."
He quickly put this little disturbance behind him because the preparatory bell had already rung and he had to quicken his pace and rush to the classroom before the last bell rang.
Still Class 3.
His fateful Class 3.
I found a random seat in the last row, and there was already someone sitting next to me. Jiang Yuelu greeted them simply, "Hello."
The boy with white hair and white eyes looked inexplicably familiar. He turned his head, stared at Jiang Yuelu for a long time, and nodded slightly.
Well……
This feeling of not speaking is also somewhat familiar...
After half a minute or more, Jiang Yuelu suddenly turned around and opened her eyes wide, "...Leng Wenhan?"
