Chapter 169 Dining Hall



After a long argument between Aliena and the blonde girl, they finally settled the matter thanks to the mediation of Loran Hill and Nia. Aliena repeatedly assured them that her cat wouldn't do anything bad, and the blonde girl reluctantly agreed and decided not to report it to the dormitory manager.

After putting away their luggage and getting familiar with the dormitory, they realized that they were a little hungry.

"By the way, um...who, are you going to dinner?" Alena asked. They had just had an argument, but she didn't seem to care.

"What do you mean, you-so-and-so? I do have a name." The blonde girl introduced herself.

"My name is Letis, from Lurna, now Frost Rose. I'm the second daughter of the Fililan family and specialize in gorgeous alchemy."

"The Fililan family is indeed famous." Alena thought for a moment before responding.

The Fililan family is an important member of the "Hour Hand" faction. This faction excels in manufacturing precision instruments and parts. It was one of the top factions in the former Lurna country, and the Fililan family has also produced several alchemy masters.

"But what is this 'gorgeous alchemy'? Isn't alchemy just about making things? Does it have to be gorgeous or not?" Aliena asked in confusion.

"You don't understand this. Whether it's magic or supernatural creations, we must try our best to pursue the enjoyment of beauty. Strength is only temporary, but beauty is a lifelong matter." Lettice said as a matter of course.

"Uh, well, it seems I can't understand." Aliena also began to introduce herself.

"My name is Alena. I'm from the Southern Hatchling Moon Council and the Cranberry Kingdom. I like small animals."

"I was wondering why I don't like you. It turns out you're from the Hinazuki Council." Lettice opened the folding fan in her hand and used it to cover her face, leaving only two light blue eyes exposed as she looked at her roommate.

The two main branches of the magic sequence have been like enemies since ancient times. They always feel that the other party is a heretic and has gone astray.

"Alright, you two, stop arguing. Let's go downstairs and get familiar with the environment. We don't even know where we're going to eat yet."

Niya was a little shy and didn't dare to disturb these two roommates with special personalities. Loran Hill had to step forward. After all, they would be staying together for a long time in the future and would not be separated until at least the second year, so they still wanted to make the environment in the dormitory more harmonious.

Only then did Lettice take a closer look at her roommate with long black hair. Her nearly perfect face and quiet oriental temperament made her unconsciously put away her arrogance as a young lady. She put down her folding fan and nodded as a sign of respect as if she were an equal.

Alena didn't take it to heart and agreed without hesitation. Niya naturally followed everyone's lead, so the four of them tidied themselves up a bit and went out and downstairs.

The few of them met many familiar freshmen in the corridor. Although they couldn't call each other's names, they still nodded in a friendly manner and passed by each other.

There were also a small number of senior students present during this period. Although the badges on their chests also showed the central school building, the patterns on the badges were more exquisite, with the main body being a solid white building.

The badges on the chests of freshmen like Loran Hill also have the pattern of the central school building in the middle, but it is outlined with raised lines and has no color.

"Those should be official students of the central school building, at least in the second grade." Lettice guessed as the four of them talked on the road.

"I heard that the central school building is the academy that mainly teaches the original sequence. Although we first-year students live here, after we advance to the second year, if we choose other sequences, we will leave and go to our respective academies."

"What colleges are there in the school?" Niya finally plucked up the courage and asked curiously.

After glancing at her timid roommate, Lettice continued.

"Emenas is divided into four major levels: the central campus in the middle, the tower of observation in the north, the unshakable bridge in the south, the lakeside castle in the east, and the temple of deep contemplation in the west."

"The four major levels are divided into five colleges." For some reason, Loran Hill suddenly wanted to say this.

"It's mainly because the central campus isn't very famous," Aliena said after a moment's thought.

"Actually, the central school building was the last to be separated. Originally, there were only first-year students here, and there were too few people studying the Origin Sequence."

"Because the Primordial Sequence's utilization of mana was very low in the past, while it had a wide range of applications, its efficiency was too low, and naturally, few people practiced it. It wasn't until a sage made significant improvements to it several hundred years ago that the Primordial Sequence slowly regained its glory."

The few of them talked as they walked, passing through the quiet tree-lined road and turning around several long buildings. Finally, their destination appeared before them. Alena stopped and looked at the towering building in front of her with her mouth slightly opened.

"We're here. Is this the cafeteria?"

"Why can't you say something nice? The cafeteria sounds like a place where the lower class people go..."

Lettice said something again, looked up at the building in front of her, and stopped talking.

It is really inappropriate to call it a canteen. The building in front of us is as magnificent and tall as an ancient Roman church, with vertically arranged supporting stone pillars and clear flowing water surrounding it. The overall grandeur is so magnificent that it is really luxurious to an excessive degree.

When you walk into the dining hall, although there are many people inside, you will not feel crowded at all. The dining tables are 7-8 meters apart. The high dome is about 50 meters above the ground, which is about 10 stories high. People walking in the hall are like little ants, and a feeling of emptiness comes over you.

Inside the hall, there are 7 floors surrounding the walls. Various foods are sold on each floor. After purchasing, you can go to the middle guardrail, where there are balcony dining tables surrounded by various plants, flowers, and potted plants.

The empty space in the middle of the hall is about the size of two football fields. The dome is made of translucent glazed tiles, which allows sunlight to shine in and onto the surrounding balconies on each floor, allowing plants to carry out photosynthesis. It also serves as a natural light source, allowing students to dine in a comfortable garden-like place.

"So, what should we have for lunch today?"

Loran Hill took in the dazzling array of windows, then turned back to look at her roommates. They were all lost in awe, which made her smile. She was actually quite surprised, too, but she was struck by the design of the dining hall, which certainly resembled a shopping mall from later generations. As for its grandeur, she wasn't surprised. After all, she had visited some national-level stadiums in her past life and experienced their spaciousness.

"Let's take a look around first, Lorraine."

After a while, Alena spoke up, her eyes full of excitement and curiosity. It seemed that what she ate was not important, what was important was to see what new things were available.

"Where is Letty?" Loran Hill continued to ask.

"I don't mind." Although she was very interested, the young lady did not want to agree with Alena's proposal, so she tacitly agreed.

"I think both are fine." Niya said softly.

"Okay, let's take a look first." The four girls walked towards the nearest window and store.
