Chapter 62 Transaction
This large flying saucer has a fixed route and will automatically avoid obstacles along the way, so Pani does not need to operate it personally.
"How do you feel?"
After taking a look at the scenery that was constantly flying backwards around him, Pani turned and looked at Avis with a sense of pride as a member of the Pamirs.
But what surprised him was that the freshman was very calm about all this. He did not instinctively change his stance like most freshmen, and he did not even show a trace of surprise.
Could it be that I was wrong, and this new student is not ordinary? Pani thought with some suspicion, suppressing the idea of showing off to Avis the stabilizing force field of the floating disc.
"It feels good, but, Mr. Guide, could you please give me a brief introduction of what I need to pay attention to in the academy?"
Anvis smiled and casually asked a common question among freshmen.
"Oh! Of course! But you don't have to call me Your Excellency. My name is Tiffany, just call me by my name!"
Coming back to her senses, Pani quickly spoke with a warm smile on her face.
"Okay, Senior Pani. I'm Anvis."
Avis nodded slightly and also said his name.
"Anvis, huh? I've got that in mind."
Pani also nodded.
"The rules of the academy are very relaxed. Apart from the prohibition of maliciously harming other students and the requirement to pass the final exam and obtain a graduation certificate within ten years, there are no other special regulations."
"However, Pamir has an independent credit system, and many things require credits to be exchanged. For example, the graduation certificate of our mysterious school requires 5,000 credits."
As he said this, Pani looked at Anvis and hesitated slightly.
"Also, I actually want to discuss a deal with you."
"Oh? Tell me about it."
Avis looked at Pani with interest.
"It's like this. As a first-year freshman, you have the privilege of exchanging gold coins for credits. The exchange rate is ten gold coins for one credit, with a maximum of one hundred credits."
"And I can buy your credits at a price of thirty to one. If you don't have enough gold coins, I can pay you with gold coins first, and then transfer them to me after you have exchanged all the credits."
Having said that, Pani paused and tightened his grip on the staff.
“Of course, since you are a freshman, I can tell you the interests involved first.
In addition to being used to exchange for graduation certificates, credits can also be exchanged in the academy for many rare items and knowledge that are hard to come by in the outside world.
I'm not trying to cheat you. Thirty gold coins to one credit is the market price here.
Even if you don’t want to trade credits now, you can still exchange them for gold coins at the same ratio in the academy’s trading market later.”
"However, if you plan to sell credits, I still hope you can come to me to trade."
After saying all the words in one breath, Panny seemed to finally breathe a sigh of relief and relaxed completely.
As a new student who has just been in school for more than a year, he is not yet used to this kind of thing.
"So that's how it is."
Avis nodded, then he looked into Pani's brown eyes and spoke with a tone of confusion and curiosity.
"But, Senior Pani, why do you have to explain so much? If you didn't explain, maybe I would agree to trade with you now--"
When hearing this question, Pani was stunned for a moment, then seemed to think of something and couldn't help laughing.
"Sorry, actually, when I entered school, after the senior who introduced me to the school explained all this to me, I also asked a similar question."
As she spoke, Pani gradually stopped smiling and looked serious.
“The answer that senior gave me was this:
"In Pamir, it is not a smart move to offend others for just a hundred credits. Because the price you will pay for it in the future is likely to be far more than this number. '"
Avis was slightly startled, then nodded slightly.
"I see."
He fully agreed with what Pani said.
"For reference, I can tell you the choice I made back then."
Unaware of what she had just dodged, Tiffany continued to share her original experience.
"Back then, after some thought, I chose to trade half of it with that senior, which is fifty credits."
"Of course, your choice is up to you..."
Before he finished his words, the flying saucer that was moving at high speed suddenly stopped, gradually lowered its altitude, and landed at the same floating saucer landing point as the aerial dock.
Pani stopped talking, smiled, looked up and gestured to the front.
"We're here, Pamir Academy of Mysteries and Relics!"
Avis looked up and saw the towering gray-white stone tower reaching into the sky.
In the circular plaza in front of the main entrance of the tower, an ancient fountain gushes clear magical water, and a lifelike stone sculpture of Emperor Gloria stands in the center of the fountain.
The emperor held the famous sword of the king in his hand, stepped on a crystal dragon, wore a crown surrounded by stars on his head, and looked into the distance with an awe-inspiring and inviolable look.
The most famous sayings of the mystery school are engraved on the moss-covered base of the stone sculpture.
"May the mystery disappear, may the mystery remain forever——"
Anvis stared silently at the inscription on the base, as if he could still understand the complex emotions in the heart of [Secret Keeper] Okar when he said this.
"Gu-what do you mean, Gu?"
At this moment, the pigeon squatting above his head cooed.
"that is……"
Anvis was about to speak when he suddenly noticed something.
"Wait, I didn't say it out loud just now?"
"Gu?"
The pigeon turned its head and looked at Avis, looking a little confused.
"I don't communicate with you through sound waves, you don't 'hear' me speaking, you sense me speaking, you sense me speaking!"
"You didn't notice this?"
"What's wrong, Avis-san?"
As if noticing that Avis was stunned for a moment, Pani looked at him strangely.
"Oh! Nothing at all, I was just reading the inscription on the base of that statue."
Avis turned his head inconspicuously and gestured in the direction of the statue.
"The ancient Manni inscription?"
Pani nodded in understanding.
"That is the most famous motto of the mystical school, from His Majesty Okar, the Secret Keeper. To be honest, I can only understand the first half of it."
"The ultimate goal of our Mystery School is to make all the spells classified in the Mystery School disappear. That means transferring all the spells classified in the Mystery School to other schools."
"As for the second half of the sentence, I dare not speak carelessly. I am afraid that only those who have reached the level of His Majesty the Secret Keeper can truly understand its profound meaning."
"I see--"
With a proper smile on his face, Avis tapped his right hand three times in front of his chest, and saluted calmly and solemnly in the direction of the statue.
Later, under Pani's guidance, Anvis briefly learned about the internal structure of the Academy of Mysteries and Relics, and received his ID card in the mission hall of the academy.
The Pamir ID card is a very convenient item that has many functions, such as contacting others, receiving credits, activating college facilities, etc.
But on the other hand, if you lose it, it will be very troublesome and expensive to get a new one.
Meanwhile, Anvis went to the exchange counter and exchanged 100 credits for 1,000 gold coins.
Under Pani's somewhat painful gaze, Anvis directly paid fifty credits in exchange for the right to use an independent secondary residence for one year.
Thanks to Boyuan and CHINABO for the reward——
