Chapter 9: The Middle of Nine Peaks
After experiencing the music festival, Bai Mo did not discuss the project with anyone.
I rejected several beautiful sisters again and when I got home, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.
Fortunately, I spent four unimportant classes at school today meditating. I still have half of my daily meditation task to complete, and another four hours of meditation in the evening will be enough.
Entering the living room, the head of the Bai family was sitting on the sofa watching a tablet. The light from the screen shone on his face, a bright green.
The door to the mahjong room upstairs was open, and the sound of rustling music was flowing down from above.
"Are you back? There are some leftovers in the kitchen."
When the head of the Bai family heard the noise, he didn't move his eyes and said lightly.
"have eaten."
Bai Mo replied, without commenting on the Bai family head's hobby of being a philanthropist, and walked into the room.
Don’t forget to meditate daily.
It rained today, and the cool moisture mixed in the wind made the Magic City in November even more autumnal.
But the second-year classroom at Zhilan Magic High School was even more restless than in the summer.
"Why hasn't the teacher come yet? Didn't he say that he was going to go for outdoor training today?"
Some students who were getting impatient with waiting asked aimlessly.
"The class group said it was 2pm, and it's only 10:50 now, it's still early."
Bai Mo looked at the rain outside the window, and the pen in his hand flew unconsciously between his fingers. If you look closely, you will find that the pen is not touching his fingers at all.
But his mind was not on what his classmates were discussing.
Two months had passed, but he had not made any substantial breakthrough in his magical skills.
I only learned two small tricks to cultivate my mental strength.
However, he became quite familiar with the two girls, Ai Tutu and Mu Nujiao. Bai Mo would occasionally check into a room with them to play poker.
On Lele Landlord.
Unfortunately, these two girls are still concentrating on the inner world of magic, and handsome guys can’t attract much interest in them, and they don’t always have time when they are invited.
In addition to these gains, he is no longer nervous when facing monsters, and he can keep his mind absolutely calm.
Zhou Tianyuan, on the other hand, had a pretty good talent. It could also be that the actual battles with the demons put pressure on him, so he asked the He family for some higher-level resources.
The water system has also reached the second level of the initial stage.
After all, the combination of combat and meditation is the best partner for improving one's cultivation.
"Classmates, our destination this time is the town in the middle of Jiufeng Mountain. After we arrive, the content of this assessment will be arranged by the local military officers for a period of half a month. A car will arrive in ten minutes. Everyone, come downstairs with me now."
At 1:40 in the afternoon, the head teacher Suning stood on the podium in the classroom and explained to the whole class again the contents of the file that was sent to the class group yesterday.
On the bus, Bai Mo randomly chose a seat and sat down, and Zhou Tianyuan sat next to him.
This caused dissatisfaction among several girls, and excitement among several girls.
There was no other way. Even if he went outdoors, Zhou Tianyuan had no intention of cutting his hair. His shoulder-length hair was combed down his back, which matched his soft and beautiful appearance.
Anyway, he doesn't look like a man at first glance.
There were two people standing at the front of the carriage, a man and a woman, with dark skin, capable and solemn temperament, both wearing military magician's uniforms.
Through their introduction, Bai Mo learned that the man was called Yan Fei and the woman was called He Yun.
Jiufeng Mountain is located to the west of Magic City. It is a relatively prominent area on the Magic City Plain, but its average altitude is still less than 100 meters.
For a city with access by land and water, this place cannot be considered a natural barrier.
The reason why a military town was built here is because Jiufeng Mountain is rich in wind and earth resources.
This attracted a large number of demons, the most powerful of which were the Nine Peaks Raccoon Clan that already lived here.
That’s why the middle town came into being.
Bai Mo learned this information from the conversation between his classmates and the military magician named Yan Fei. During the conversation, the classmates were less reserved than they had been when they first met the military magician.
A boy with a crew cut asked in a familiar voice, "Brother Yan, why is it called Zhongjian Town?"
"There is a gap in the middle of the nine peaks, which is the main road connecting the east and west of the mountain range. The military town is located here, so it is called the Middle Town."
"How long will it take us to get there?"
“Soon.”
Yan Fei was an honest man, and soon the bus drove into a town and stopped in front of a huge city gate.
Everyone got off the bus.
You can see that it had just rained here. The ground is moist and the air still retains fresh moisture.
The city gate in front of us is towering, connecting the mountain walls on both sides. The sky after the rain is transparent, painted with half an acre of yellow, and the mountains in the distance are clear and bright, with a faint white mist lingering.
It was Bai Mo's first time going out and he felt very good. Looking at the mountain scenery after the rain, although he knew there were many dangers inside, he still couldn't help but think about it.
"After the rain in the empty mountains, the weather turns to autumn late."
This caused Zhou Tianyuan, who was following nearby and looking around, to look sideways in astonishment, and then he fell into deep thought.
Pass through the city gate and enter the town.
The town is not completely militarized. There are professional shops on the streets, ranging from daily necessities to leisure and entertainment, to wizard department stores.
There are also amateur vendors, who appear to be wizards who come here to hunt monsters. The items they sell are quite mixed, and most of them are obtained from Jiufeng Mountain.
There is a square in the center of the town, which still seems empty even though all the second-year high school students who come here for training gather here.
They were waiting here, waiting for the commander of the military town to come and make arrangements for them.
"Is this Zhongjian Town? It doesn't look like anything special."
"Hey, Qingqing, let me tell you, there's a military magician over there, and he's so handsome!"
"Oh my god, why do those people setting up stalls look so social? I just glanced at him, and he asked me what I was looking at. I was so scared that I didn't dare to say anything."
The classmate next to him looked at him and said speechlessly: "They just saw you looking around for a long time and asked you what you wanted to buy."
"Really?"
Bai Mo listened to the students' noise from time to time, and he noticed that the class teachers were all gathered in one place.
Next to them, a group of military mages walked down a street, led by a woman. Her face was stern and her temperament was majestic, making people subconsciously ignore her petite figure.
The woman led the team to stand in the center of the square, looked at the noisy square, frowned, and whispered a word:
"quiet!"
Bai Mo felt a thought accompanied by a special wave sweeping over, and then he felt the entire square become quiet.
Some classmates around them were still talking, but they soon found that they could not hear what others were saying, nor could they hear what they were saying.
"Is this sound magic? It's at least high-level!" Bai Mo took in their situation. Zhou Tianyuan next to him patted him on the shoulder with a look of horror.
Bai Mo glanced at him and turned his gaze to the female officer who caused all this.
But she saw the ground beneath her feet slowly rising, supporting her to form a three-meter-high platform.
Seeing that all the students on the field stopped making a commotion and turned their attention to her, a satisfied smile appeared on her stern face.
"From now on, you can talk."
The female officer's voice was clearly heard by everyone, but no one intended to speak. She continued:
"My name is Gu Changying. I am the highest commander of this military town and the chief instructor of your training. You can call me Instructor Gu."
After a pause, Gu Changying continued:
"I know you are all students, but the University Alliance has temporarily assigned you here. From now on, you only have one identity: a military mage!"
Gu Changying swept her gaze across the young faces below with an indifferent look, yet she had an invisible aura. She said word by word:
"It's never easy to be a military magician. If you don't have enough ability, you can't become a military magician. You can only be an apprentice! And your mission this time is to join the patrol mage teams in Zhongjian Town, complete the daily patrol tasks, and cancel the title of apprentice."
Just when everyone breathed a sigh of relief and thought that this task was quite easy, Gu Changying's voice continued to ring out:
"I will require you to follow the standards of a normal patrolling military mage. Patrolling the mountains, exorcising monsters, and obeying orders are your main tasks. You have three days to adapt. After the three days, if you can meet the standards every day in the twelve days, you will be S. Otherwise, you will be F."
"Exorcising demons?!" A young teacher frowned. The teacher next to him shook his head and comforted him, "Don't worry, I brought students here for the same purpose five years ago. No one's life will be in danger."
"That will hurt, right? I take the instructor very seriously, and this assessment method is too harsh."
"Hi, Teacher Xu, these words are for the students to hear. Instructor Gu is very busy and has no time to take care of these things. The evaluation of grades still requires the observation and participation of teachers like us."
"Teacher Tian, what do you mean?"
In the square.
After hearing Gu Changying's abnormal assessment criteria, the students in the square were in an uproar, and some of them were angry and protested. The hunters who were watching the excitement outside the square whistled and made sarcastic remarks.
Gu Changying glanced at the protesting students and said in a cold voice: "Here, I have the final say! Cowards don't deserve to stay here. If you want to leave, you can go to your class teacher now to get an F-grade paper and go back to school tomorrow!"
Suddenly, everyone on the field was speechless.
At this age, people are full of passion and no one wants to be looked down upon. Of course, some people want to back off, but they will not make this choice in public at this time.
The first lesson to becoming a mage is to stand in front of ordinary people!
When facing demons, anyone can leave, but the mage cannot. Field training is to let them face the demons directly. If they leave at this time.
Although he got the evaluation, and an F-level evaluation actually gave him the opportunity to go to magic university, but in fact, his magic career was over at this time.
The government and the public will not allow a wizard who only enjoys benefits and does not fulfill his responsibilities to continue on the path of magic.
Of course, if you just escaped in private, no one would pursue it. After all, who knows?
Bai Mo rubbed his ears and secretly made up his mind not to look for Master Yin when he had an argument in the future.
At the same time, I remembered that our homeroom teacher, Suning, could always easily suppress the voices of the entire class, and I understood what his second series was.
Gu Changying made his attitude clear, and seeing that no one had any objections, he said leisurely: "You will be assigned to that team, and your class teacher will notify you later. That's all I have to say. I hope you can pass the assessment."
After saying this, the earthen platform under her feet slowly sank into the ground, and then she turned and left.
The place was as smooth as before, as if the changes just now had never happened.
