Chapter 260: Principal Lanqi is excited again
On the late night road leading to the Protoss Royal School of Magic.
Zestila simply told Lanci one of her secrets.
A small number of demons with outstanding talents do not need to be promoted to a very high level, and they are born with a weak degree of innate magic awakened.
Zestira's talent allows her to avoid some dangers, but she will also bear more negative emotions accordingly.
In the past ten years, she had seen people who were more or less kind but also malicious towards her, but she had never seen a guy as pure and flawless as Lanqi.
Between the tall buildings, a sky garden supported by a transparent magic barrier was suspended in the air, with singing plants and glowing ghosts planted in it. The two passed by it without any worry that they would fall down.
This city-state is psychedelic yet has an eerie tone.
"Go that way."
Zestila pointed to the intersection on the left, signaling Lanqi not to go straight to an old neighborhood in front.
This is an old neighborhood that looks a bit twisted in shape. Its spatial structure is actually different from that of the outside world. It is like a multi-dimensional intersection. One step into it and you can reach any location in the imperial capital at any time.
"By the way, are you guys going to fight in the Shadow World too?"
Lanci asked with a little curiosity.
There is no artificial shadow world activation terminal in the northern continent, which is a large-scale magical device that can be regarded as the pinnacle of modern human magic engineering.
So there is no corresponding "practice mode".
Death in the artificial shadow world does not really mean death, but in the real shadow world, once you die, you lose your life.
Zestira, a preparatory student who hadn't even made it to the first grade, had to face the real shadow world right from the start.
However, according to what Lanqi learned from the Silver Armor Priest, the academic rewards of the Protoss Royal School of Magic are also very generous and direct. For example, as long as enough credits are paid, most of the resources that students may need can be exchanged.
The school can even arrange for students to observe the [Original Slate - Light] of the Great Sage of the Empire.
As for the holder of the other piece of [Original Slate - Undead], Duke Morodian currently refuses any viewing requests.
The Great Poet once told Lanqi that if he collected more of his [Fake Slate] series, he might be able to achieve some changes when he put them together later.
Because the [original stone slabs] are actually fragments of murals that can be pieced together, but they have been isolated, and there is absolute repulsion between the two [original stone slabs].
But the [fake slate] made by the poet of great love does not have this kind of exclusion, and one person can tie multiple pieces together.
It just so happens that according to the records of the complete map, [Original Slate - Light] and [Original Slate - Wind] are two adjacent pieces.
If it were possible to observe the [Original Slate-Light], Lanqi would like to experiment with combining the [Fake Slate-Light] and the [Fake Slate-Wind] together.
"I chose a course called 'Shadow World Practical Skills'. It is a course that both preparatory students and first-year students can choose. The credits are very high, and if you want to become stronger, challenging the Shadow World will also speed up the process."
Zestila might disappear from school for half a day to several days. She would tell Lanqi in advance and tell him not to worry and not to run around in school.
"Have you studied the Shadow World in the Southern Continent?"
She heard that the people of the Southern Continent were more accustomed to using mechanisms and wisdom rather than relying on their own strength to pass through the Shadow World. They also had a comprehensive system, teaching, and intelligence knowledge sharing, which greatly increased the overall success rate of passing the Shadow World.
"I've fought twice and have done some research."
Lanci nodded.
"Then tell me a little bit about the key points of your challenge to the Shadow World in the Southern Continent."
Zestila said.
This film world will be observed by professors and senior students with the highest credits. In addition to the credits awarded based on the evaluation, it will largely determine whether there is a teacher willing to select her and bring her into the upper house.
"No problem, but if you're not sure about the Shadow World, you can just take me with you."
Lanqi knew that Zestira was only at the second level.
In theory, there should be no problem in attacking the second-level shadow world, but from what Viscount Francis once told him about Zestira's experience in the entrance examination, the real danger may not be the shadow world, but her classmates.
“No need.”
Zestilar flatly refused.
She wouldn't take him into such a dangerous place.
The two fell into a natural silence again. Most of the time, Zestira didn't say much and walked along the river of surging energy.
A river in the city of Helrom. It is not ordinary river water, but unprocessed natural magic core liquid mineral spring. Psychedelic ripples appear on the river surface from time to time, which is highly poisonous to people whose magic power is not strong enough.
The Helrom Zoo on the other side of the river is an iconic mechanical building that houses many modified creatures and alchemical creatures from the demon world. However, visitors need to sign a statement acknowledging that the zoo is not responsible if they are swallowed or deformed.
Continue forward, passing the Endless Library and the Star Theater to reach the Protoss Royal Academy of Magic.
There is a library in the city of Helrom with an incalculable number of books, and the administrator is a seventh-level automaton.
Not far above the library, at the end of the suspended steps hundreds of meters high is a theater. It is said that sitting in it will feel like the night sky is the sky and the stars are within reach, but it is not suitable for audiences with acrophobia and heart disease.
Lanqi had already conducted tourism surveys on these places.
This is a city-state full of extraordinary things, and it would be a shame not to have a good time here.
Not long after.
The two went to a building on the outer edge of the academy to complete formalities before entering the inner area of the school.
Similar to the Student Service Center of Ikrit College, the only difference is that the service is maintained 24 hours a day.
With the prompt processing of the night shift staff.
After filling out some forms, Lanqi successfully got a bracelet similar to Zestilara's.
“…”
He turned his head to look at the bracelet on Zestila's hand, and saw the dim crimson text on it changing to [150 (+0)].
On Lanqi's own bracelet, it was [0].
"Can I also earn points as a tutor?"
Lanqi roughly guessed the meaning of the numbers.
If the number on your bracelet as a follower is the same as the number in brackets on Zestila's bracelet.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"Any points you earn will belong to me, but I don't need you to risk your life to earn them for me."
Zestila said calmly.
"Don't school expenses also require credits?"
Lanqi noticed a few things when filling out the form just now. For example, there is no transaction channel using imperial currency within the school, and students' living expenses will be deducted from credits. Therefore, if no credits are recorded, the amount will become less and less. This is somewhat similar to the model of Purgatory Corridor Academy.
In theory, the school will not audit the behavior of trading credits with imperial currency, but as long as the buyer or seller reports it, the reported party will most likely have credits deducted or even expelled and the record will be kept on the file. This loophole seems to be left intentionally, and it is hard to say whether it is a design by the school to provoke students' trust and test their minds.
"Don't worry about it."
Zestilah's voice was still calm. "It would be a better choice for a tutor-type follower to stay outside the school most of the time, but I would like to ask you to help me on the monthly assessment day."
Zestila honestly told Lanqi the help she needed.
Lanqi is willing to stay in school every day to teach her on weekdays, or just come to give her tutoring on weekends.
"Monthly assessment day?"
It was rare for Lanqi to hear Zestila ask for his help.
He had heard before that Zestira would have a big test at the end of the month, and then a challenge to the Shadow World, both of which were very important to her.
"The last day of every month is an assessment day. There will be a closed assessment, and the entire school will become a semi-restricted area. The danger level of the classrooms will be graded. You must enter at least three classrooms on that day, but you cannot tell what subjects are in each classroom. For example, you can help me with some exams on magic engineering and magic genealogy. It is also an opportunity to gain a lot of credits."
Zestilar said, "But I will protect you."
Upon hearing this, Lanqi frowned slightly and began to think.
He always felt that this pattern sounded a little familiar.
Isn't this the normalized pattern of his Purgatory Corridor Academy?
“…”
Zestila glanced at Lanqi.
She required very few duties from Lanci, but this one was quite difficult, so it was normal for him to feel a little stressed. However, if he didn't want to, Zestira wouldn't force him.
Most of the time, Lanqi will be able to move freely in the imperial capital.
It's safer than staying in school.
For this harmless young man, Zestira only hopes that he can live a happy and comfortable life in the capital. If he wants to settle down, he can just take care of him in his old age. He doesn't seem to be the kind of person who likes to make a big fuss.
"Don't worry, even if it's just part-time tutoring, I will do my best to fulfill my duties."
Lanci said confidently.
Since she can bring a tutor to help her during the exam, Lanqi will certainly not disappoint Zestila's expectations and let her classmates see what it means for the principal to personally take action.
Now that his main job is less burdensome, he can focus entirely on developing new business.
Boss Cat had asked him before if he wanted to be the principal again this time, and he said no.
We agreed to meet Hyperion and give her a surprise.
Lanqi always insists on doing what he says.
Because he had already been the principal once, becoming the principal again this time might not be a strong enough shock to her, so he wanted to do something new.
Having previously infiltrated the Southwestern Province through the Church of Resurrection, he not only gained the admiration of Archbishop Kane, but his implementation policies also won the approval of the conservatives headed by the Southwestern Province administrator. His highly disseminated image as a pioneer is gradually becoming a leader respected by a new faction.
With a little more support, as a pioneer, he might be able to start breaking into the imperial politics, starting with the House of Commons.
