Chapter 234 Lanqi wants to keep some suspense for Loren
The office of the dean of the Sage's House at Ikrit Academy.
The dark grey walls and high-grade black wooden furniture set off each other, making it look low-key and profound. Along the wall was a row of bookcases that gave a sense of overlapping space. They were filled with various classic works on magic engineering, as well as some academic reports and research magazines.
A small meeting area is located in a corner of the office, with a round low-legged conference table and several comfortable chairs, and is usually used for short meetings or informal exchanges with students and faculty.
The windows are large and bright, overlooking the beautiful scenery of the campus, especially the courtyard of the Sage Hall and the ancient tower library in the distance. Ample natural light pours into the house, making the whole environment appear more spacious and bright.
Loren sat behind his large wooden desk, concentrating on looking through the documents in his hands.
A semester full of ups and downs has finally come to an end.
As the dean, he only had some finishing work to do.
Seeing the marks of Lanqi's absence in every subject and Hyperion's close to full marks in every subject on the transcript, Loren felt like something was stuck in his throat. How on earth did these two get together?
Previously in the capital, almost everyone agreed that the Duke's daughter Hyperion was far inferior to her father, Duke Migaia, and had not inherited any of Duke Migaia's talents. But now Loren thought that this was not the case. Her talent was amazing, and she could even tie down Lanqi.
Loren couldn't imagine what would happen to this Sage Academy if she wasn't there to attract Lanqi's attention and Lanqi was free to do what he wanted.
When Loren thought of Lanqi, then of the students from the Kingdom of Yalolan who were still in the hospital, and of Juliana asking him to wait, his head ached.
Sudden.
The doorbell rang.
"Come in."
Loren came back to his senses and said while looking at the door.
Then the office door was slowly pushed open.
Two students came in with documents.
They were wearing casual clothes today and looked very casual and comfortable.
"Lanqi, Hyperion, do you have any holiday plans?"
Loren's eyes immediately caught the document in Lanqi's hand, which should be the application form.
"Yes, all other formalities have been completed at the Student Service Center. All that's left is your approval."
Lanci replied.
"Let me see your materials."
Loren took the file handed to him by Lanqi and began to read it carefully.
"'The Search for the Slate Holder'... I'm glad to see you guys are so into it."
Although Lanci and Hyperion did not choose the most conventional graduation topic of their Sage Academy, they chose a graduation topic common to the Magic Academy.
But Loren was not surprised to see that Lanqi actually wanted to do this project.
Because the Sage Academy and the Magic Engineering Academy have a common required course "General Knowledge of Magical Genealogy", students in the Sage Academy who have talent in magic engineering can also choose such a subject. Sometimes, when students from the Magic Engineering Academy choose this subject, they will also bring along thugs from the Sage Academy who can protect them as companions to complete it together.
However, this topic sometimes takes a long time just on the road, and the attitude of the person being interviewed is unpredictable, so the difficulty is difficult to assess.
There is no restriction on which strongest person to seek out, and the academic value of the final project will only be determined based on the search results and reports submitted by the students when they return.
Lanqi is an excellent magic craftsman and should broaden his horizons.
"Lanqi, Hyperion, this topic is not only a project of our college, but also has a relevant agreement with the Magic Tower Society. Once signed, the results you choose to submit for review after returning will be made public by the Magic Tower. Do you understand this?"
Loren raised his eyes and asked.
Many years ago, the search for the holder of the slate was initially just a spontaneous act of outstanding magic craftsman students in the southern continent. It was not until later that it gradually developed into a graduation topic for the Magic Engineering Academy. Many schools and forces in the southern continent also have similar high-level tasks.
Finally, after being unified by the Magic Tower Society, a conventional process gradually emerged.
First of all, in terms of choice, the best solution is to go to the allied countries in the southern continent to find the strongest person. There is basically no risk of being rejected. At most, the task given by the strongest person may be a little difficult, and the safety factor is also very high.
The second point is that if you go to a powerful country in the southern continent that is not an ally, such as the extremely distant Kingdom of Canberra, or go south along the coastal road into the territory of the Kreming Empire, first of all, it will be difficult to meet the strongest person, and secondly, the other party may not necessarily pay attention to students.
The most dangerous place is the Northern Continent, which is isolated from the Southern Continent all year round. Going there to look for the leader of a large force, there are no rules of the Southern Continent. If you are not as skilled as others, you may be killed at any time.
Apart from the stone tablets of the five bishops in the northern continent and the stone tablets in the hands of elves, demons, orcs, dragons, witches and other races, among the remaining known human holders, the only ones that may be possible to visit are the [Original Tablets - Healing] of the Church of the Goddess of Destiny and the [Original Tablets - Undead] and [Original Tablets - Light] of the giant empire of the Protoss Empire on the south coast.
No matter which stone slab is finally found, it will be handed over to the Magic Tower's society to assess its value and commend it. Students who have made outstanding academic contributions will even be publicly commended in the Magic Tower branches in various countries on the southern continent.
In the three months since Lanqi came to prominence, he has only been a hot topic in Ikerit, the capital of the Hutton Kingdom. In the entire southern continent, apart from a few people who pay attention to him, he has not yet achieved anything that can be called a reputation.
If Lanci can make some progress on this subject, he may gain a certain international academic reputation, which will also help his platinum review.
Only by becoming a formal platinum-level card maker can Lanqi be considered famous in this vast continent.
"No problem. It is our duty to contribute to the development of magic engineering."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Lanci answered seriously.
Loren nodded when he heard this. He would also be particularly supportive of anything that would help the Hutton Kingdom add a new platinum-level card maker.
"Are you leaving today? You just got a holiday and you don't want to rest for two days before leaving?"
He asked, looking at Lanci and Hyperion.
"Yes, we have already bought the tickets."
Hyperion noticed that Loren's face finally showed a long-lost smile. It was obvious that although Loren was saying words of concern for his students, in his heart he was probably hoping that Lanqi would leave quickly so that Ikerit Academy could have some peace and quiet.
"Time is tight. The journey between the two of us will probably take more than two months."
Lanqi was very reluctant to leave Ikerit College, and answered honestly.
"The Northern Continent, the Northern Continent is great..."
Loren muttered to himself as he signed the application form for both of them.
"That's right."
After Loren signed, he put away his pen and looked up at Lanqi with interest.
"Which powerful person do you want to visit?"
Upon hearing that Lanqi was going to leave the Kingdom of Hutton for a while, Loren's mood improved. If he had to describe it, it felt like the New Year's Capital Festival was tomorrow.
Since Lanqi's destination is the Northern Continent, it is impossible that he is going to visit Juliana.
This made Loren feel relieved.
Lanci and Hyperion looked at each other.
Silence is better than words at this time.
Hyperion felt a headache coming on. It was really exhausting to support Ranch.
"Let's not talk about it for now. I will give you a surprise when I come back."
Lanqi thought about it, looked at Loren and answered.
