Only those academies that teach magic meet all the criteria!
The reliable people all agreed and nodded in agreement.
However, although the scope has been narrowed, the actual problems still do not seem to have been solved.
Xu Ling spoke up, getting straight to the most crucial question, "So, which magic academy should Ruth be attending?"
Immediately, everyone looked at each other, speechless for a moment, unsure how to answer.
"Perhaps we could start with the ?" Fier suddenly had an idea and interjected, "Once we know which magic academies have this book, our targets can be narrowed down again!"
I must admit, Fei'er makes a lot of sense, but the problem is...
How do we know which magic schools have this book?
Xu Ling blinked and asked a profound question.
This is indeed a problem!
Unable to answer, everyone fell silent once again.
Fei'er couldn't help but sigh: "What can we do? Is there any way?"
Anyway, as a Moonlight Silver Wolf who had only been to villages near the Misty Forest when he was young, he really didn't know about such a high-class place as the Magic Academy!
Fei'er's gaze involuntarily drifted towards the others, as if seeking their opinions.
Of course, Xu Ling is not included among these other people.
After all, they had known each other for so long. Although they never said it, they could all vaguely sense that Xu Ling was unfamiliar with this world and had almost no common sense at all.
Therefore, it's even less likely that Xu Ling would know the answer to a question that even he couldn't answer.
Fei'er's gaze quickly swept past Xu Ling and landed on Kaopu.
Reliable is completely different from Xu Ling!
Although he was certain that Kaopu and Xu Ling were from the same place, he had to admit that Kaopu's abilities were worlds apart from Xu Ling's. Of course, he was referring to Kaopu as "sky" and Xu Ling as "earth."
It wasn't that Fei'er was blindly confident in Kaopu; he had genuinely experienced Kaopu's capabilities firsthand.
If Xu Ling's abilities are baffling, then Kaopu gives off a mysterious and unfathomable feeling, even though it is currently just an ugly-cute house cat with no apparent superior abilities.
Ignoring the thought that had inadvertently popped into her head, Fei lowered her head and looked at Kaopu, asking, "Kaopu, what do you think?"
Reliable: ······
It thinks... it thinks what?!
Kaopu couldn't help but grind his back teeth. Fei'er really knew how to bring up a sore spot!
If its world data is accurate, why would they need to speculate and guess?!
It could tell Ruth's location in a heartbeat!
After all, its information only mentions one magic academy—Phil Magic Academy, nothing more!
However, I wish it were that simple!
The data about it is completely worthless! It's utterly useless!
"I only have one guess," the reliable gaze became somewhat speechless. At this moment, it could only try anything as a last resort. "I think, maybe, perhaps, it's Phil Magic Academy."
Anyway, there's only one answer, and it's not even certain if it really exists, but who knows?
Right!
Maybe a blind cat will stumble upon a dead mouse!
His reliable gaze held a hint of certainty, but he was still quite apprehensive inside.
Hmm... it's afraid someone will say that Phil Magic Academy doesn't even exist in this world, which would be awkward!
Fortunately, being reliable still has some luck on its side!
After it finished expressing its guess, everyone fell silent.
Excluding the troublemaker Thanos, the illiterate Xu Ling, and the practically illiterate Fei Er, these three have no idea what schools even exist in this world, so they naturally have no right to express their opinions.
All that was left were old John and Ella—these two were people who had actually lived in normal society, so they naturally knew much more than the other three.
However, although Old John and Ella did know much more than Xu Ling and the others, due to their status, their understanding of the school was actually quite limited.
In this world, there are different countries, and education is of paramount importance to each country. Naturally, different countries have different schools.
Even though the number of schools isn't particularly large, there should be at least four or five in total.
However, even though there weren't many schools, that wasn't something ordinary people should care about. They couldn't even get enough to eat, so how could they have the mind to care about anything else!
As ordinary citizens, old John and Ella naturally knew very little.
Even though they have enough to eat and drink, their environment still limits their access to information.
So, to put it simply, Old John and his friends only knew about two schools.
One of them is the Royal Magic Academy, which is well-known to everyone in the Tao Empire.
Besides these, there was another school, which was Phil Magic Academy, which Kaopu had previously secretly suspected and thought was highly unlikely to exist.
In fact, Phil Magic Academy is known to everyone.
In other words, anyone born and raised on this continent, regardless of their individual status or circumstances, will answer Phil Magic Academy out of ten when asked about the most prestigious magic academy on the continent.
As for the remaining one, either an elderly person with memory loss or a toddler who hasn't yet learned the words "Phil Magic Academy".
Old John looked troubled, knowing that he only knew these two magic schools.
“I’m sorry, Reliable Master,” he bowed, his tone full of apology, “As for magic schools, Ella and I can’t be of much help. We only know about the Royal Magic Academy of the Ota Empire and the Phil Magic Academy.”
Just as Old John was feeling extremely guilty for not being able to help, Reliable heard what he said and felt no displeasure at all; on the contrary, he was secretly delighted.
Thank goodness, it actually guessed one correctly!
The reliable creature twitched its eyebrows slightly, barely managing to suppress the inappropriate grin from its lips. It coughed lightly, then nodded understandingly toward Old John.
"This isn't your fault, I understand!"
After all, the world is so big, how could anyone possibly know everything? Right?
While I can understand, things seem to have reached a dead end—how are they going to find out which school Ruth is in?
Xu Ling posed a soul-searching question.
After pondering for a while, Kaopu asked Old John, "Do you know where the Royal Magic Academy of Tao is?"
Old John's face immediately showed difficulty: "The Royal Magic Academy is naturally located in the Iron Heart, the capital of the Tao Empire, but..."
Before everyone could even feel happy about the location Old John had mentioned, a twist of fate made everyone's hearts jump.
"But what?" Xu Ling asked anxiously.
Old John glanced at Xu Ling before saying in a low voice, "I'm sorry, sir, although we know it's in the Heart of Steel, we don't know where it is."
