Chapter 49: Heart Disease
In the end, Cook still followed Highlander to Emperor Star High School, which was also a helpless thing, after all, he had something to ask for.
But why did she come along?Cook followed closely behind Highlando, glancing at Mu Lanya beside him without a trace.
Mu Lanya was wearing the clothes that Cook asked Hailanduo to bring at this time, and I don't know if Sister Lan did it intentionally or unintentionally, the clothes she brought over were actually her previous high school uniform.
The overall color of the uniform is khaki, which brings a very quiet and fresh feeling, and a long blue and white tie is tied on the chest, which not only does not destroy the quiet temperament, but sets off it more formally, looking both ladylike and mature.
"What are you looking at me for!" Mu Lanya immediately caught Cook's sneaky glance and shouted in a dissatisfied voice.
Well...... You're really not a lady at all. Cook retracted his gaze with some shame and complained secretly.
However, although Cook withdrew his gaze, Mu Lanya did not, and was still very vigilant and distrustful, staring at Cook tightly behind his back.
She followed all the way, naturally knowing what the purpose of these two people was, to find Teacher Afra, to enroll this terrible guy in school, and then to participate in the national competition?
Is this guy reliable?Mu Lanya muttered with considerable suspicion in her heart, listening to Senior Sister Hailando, he is still a top first-order ability...... Is there something wrong?
Although Mu Lanya was full of suspicion about Cook in her heart, she was embarrassed to ask in front of Highland, so she could only muttered in a depressed voice along the way.
"It's been a long time. After walking for more than half an hour, Cook and the others finally arrived at the gate of Dixing High School, and Hylando looked at the scene on the campus, as if he was a little touched by the scene, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
Because it was a weekend, the school seemed very empty, and all the way down, except for the janitor at the door, Cook really didn't see a living person.
However, Dixing High School is one of the three top high schools in the imperial capital, and the overall architectural style is very majestic, just one of the large squares can accommodate about 1,500 students and teachers to gather and pass, which can play a role in safe evacuation to the greatest extent.
Cook and the others are now walking in one of the halls, the interior of the hall is very empty, but it does not give people that kind of heaviness from the depths of the heart, the pale gold mural pattern and the brilliant sunlight and golden light complement each other, which not only brings people visual impact shock, but also gives people an inexplicable sense of warmth, which is very strange.
After walking for about ten minutes, Cook and the others finally walked through the synagogue and came to a small retro attic.
There is actually an attic in the high school?Cook was a little surprised by this, but he still walked in with Sister Lan.
As soon as he entered the inside, Cook frowned directly, and gently covered his nose with his right hand.
The attic is covered with colorful wood that can only be produced in the south of the empire, which is a very expensive and rare wood tool, not only will not be corroded by insects, but also exudes a unique woody fragrance for many years, and is very popular among some wealthy people.
It's not that Cook can't stand the smell, it's just that he suddenly smells a little uncomfortable.
"Teacher, I'm coming to see you!" Hylando, who didn't mind the scent at all, shouted with joy as soon as she entered the door.
"Oh, Landuo, did you find it?" After the blue curtain tied at the window, a little Lori who looked a little shorter than Dai Lisa walked out, but her tone was very old-fashioned.
"Found it, he's him, doesn't he look good?" Highlando, pulling Cook over, holding Cook's head down, said.
Little Lori walked straight to Cook's side, looked Cook up and down carefully, and Cook also broke free of Hylando's left hand holding his head at this time, raised his head, and looked at the little Lori.
Poof! After a brief moment of silence, Cook's cheeks suddenly widened, and his hands tightly covered his lips, for fear that he could not help but burst out laughing.
Cook's eyes flashed with an inexplicable glow, and when he looked closely, he could see that there were little tears rolling in his eyes, and he was already holding back tears.
Hylando's five slender and slender jade fingers suddenly buckled upside down on Cook's head, with a slight force, it was actually a pain in Cook's head, and he grinned and sucked in the cold air.
"Alright, Landot, I don't mind. Little Lori waved slightly to La Mer, motioning for her to let go of Cook.
Highlando, too, listened to her and let go of her right hand directly, leaving Cook alone and rubbing his head vigorously.
"Hmm...... It's the top position, but ......" Afra walked around Cook, her deep eyes flashing with an unknown eerie glow, and under his gaze, Cook actually had the illusion that his whole body was being seen through.
"Your fit is weird, it's always going to fluctuate between 97 and 99 and can't settle down. Afra continued, but it made Cook eerily silent, staring fixedly at the very young-looking Lori.
"If I'm not mistaken, you used to advance, but failed, right?" Afra's next words shocked everyone present, and even Highlando's mouth opened in surprise.
She can feel the fluctuating ability energy on Cook's body, and she can also see that Cook is a top-level first-order ability, but she can't feel Cook's fit so clearly like Teacher Afra, let alone the fluctuating fit value.
"Little Cook, tell my sister, is this true?" Hylando, after being surprised, immediately restrained her emotions and asked very solemnly.
If Cook had really advanced before, it would be enough to show that Cook's super talent was already the strongest talent that could break the imperial record.
"I'm ......" Cook's eyes were glazed and he couldn't speak.
"Don't be nervous, tell your sister everything. Highlandor covered Cook's cheeks with both hands, and looked directly into Cook's somewhat dazed eyes, his expression more solemn than ever.
"June of this year...... I do seem to have advanced ......," Cook muttered dreamily as he stared into Highland's eyes.
Sure enough, after getting a definite answer, Highlando took a deep breath and looked at Afra with a serious expression.
"I know what you want to ask, but that's his own business, and how can I know it all, all I can see is the superficial stuff in him. Afra closed her eyes slightly and said lightly.
Hearing this, Hylando's expression couldn't help but darken, glanced at Cook, and sighed deeply.
"But this is a bonus, since he has advanced once, it is enough to show that his ability is beyond the ordinary top 1st order ability, and it should not be a problem to squeeze into the top 10 in the competition. ”
"I will take full responsibility for his admission procedures. Afra said.
"But, Teacher, since he has advanced once, can you let him advance again? Highlando's tone was anxious and a little unwilling.
On the one hand, she was feeling unwilling for Cook, and she had obviously advanced once, but she failed. On the one hand, she was unwilling for the school, if Cook could really become a second-order, then Emperor Star High School would not have to fall into such an embarrassing situation.
Afra glanced at Hylando, sighed slightly, and said, "Landuo, you have always had a smooth ride on the path of the Adept, so you don't know much about the failure of the advancement. ”
Highlando's silence was silent, Teacher Afra was right, she really didn't know much about advanced failure.
"There are many reasons for the failure of the advancement, if it is only due to external factors, it is not a big problem, but if it is ...... If it's his own internal factors that cause the failure, that's the real trick. ”
"Factors within the individual?" Hylando muttered puzzled, she didn't expect that the failure of the advanced would have the ingredient of the Ability itself in it.
In the past, she had always believed that the reason why the Adept failed was because of the discomfort of the surrounding environment and the interference of outsiders, and she never thought that the Adept itself would become a factor in this.
"Yes, the Adept itself can sometimes be the key to the failure of the advancement, and although this kind of situation is rare, when it happens, it is an extremely difficult situation. Afra nodded and continued.
"Why?" Hilando, still puzzled.
"Because they have obstacles in their hearts, these obstacles will gradually become their demons, so that they dare not face up to or accept their abilities, but generally speaking, it is impossible for these people to reach the top level, at most it is the middle position. ”
"Sure enough, little Cook is still ...... because of external factors," Hylando said hurriedly, because little Cook had already reached the top.
"Don't worry, I said it, that's in general. Afra abruptly interrupted Hylando's words and continued, "There are some people who are very special, they dare not face up to their abilities, but they must rely on their own abilities, and over time, they will form an extremely contradictory relationship with their abilities. ”
As if recalling something, Hylando's expression was solemn, and he asked Cook heavily, "Little Cook, is it the reason why you ran away from home?"
"Sister Lan! I!" Cook raised his head suddenly, eager to defend something, but choked his throat and couldn't say anything.
Seeing this, the depths of Hai Landuo's eyes fluctuated slightly, gritted his teeth unwillingly, and asked, "Teacher, how can this kind of person advance to success?"
"The so-called heart demon, in the final analysis, is still a heart disease, as long as the heart disease can be cured, it is natural to advance again, especially for him, he has already had an advanced experience, as long as the heart disease can be cured, he can immediately advance to success. Afra said.
