Academy Horror Chapter 3 Shadow Street

Moira crossed her waist in front of Lin Moyang, while Sylbe kept drawing patterns with chalk on a brick wall. This brick wall, located at the back of the student dormitory, may have been barbecued in front of this wall before, and this wall is blackened with black carbon marks on it.

"Ah, why did the senior suddenly want to go to Shadow Street, is there anything I need to buy?" asked Silbe, tilting his head as he drew a magic circle on the wall. There were also many students around who were also heading to Shadow Street, waiting for Silbey's move.

"Uh...... Probably my things were taken by Carter, and in the afternoon he invited me to dinner at the restaurant on Shadow Street, and I went to get my things back. Lin Moyang scratched his head and said embarrassedly.

"It's theft! You should report it to our student council as soon as possible! Let me deal with this guy with dirty hands and feet. Silbert stabbed a piece of chalk in a murderous manner, and then she stuck out her tongue apologetically and picked up a piece of chalk again. At the base of the wall is a box of chalk, which seems to have been prepared for students who are going shopping. It's no wonder that the school doesn't have to worry about wizards quietly skipping class with the help of this wall, even an honor student like Sylbe has already drawn for 10 minutes, and this complex magic array has only completed a small half, which has to be replaced by the kind of students who like to skip class, I'm afraid they don't know how to write.

"Ah, every time this magic array is dynamic, the pattern of the magic array is different every day, it has to be calculated according to the period, similar to the dynamic password, you have to have someone who can calculate and draw this magic array to be able to go to the shadow street, but now everyone generally waits for others to draw the magic array, and a door can last until 0:00 the next day every day. As he spoke, Sylbe focused on depicting the details of the magic array, constantly adding some characters to the magic array that Lin Moyang felt dizzy even at a glance.

"In the early days, Shadow Street was not a particularly peaceful place, but it was indeed a place where wizards gathered, so this threshold was set so that students would not run to Shadow Street, and later the Round Table Council rectified the order of the wizarding world, and Shadow Street gradually became a commercial street among wizards. Moira excitedly explained that she had changed into a white short-sleeved dress and a small satchel on her body, and sure enough, girls would be extra excited when they mentioned shopping.

Sylbe finished her final strokes and let out a long breath, then she wiped the sweat from her forehead with the back of her hand and chanted softly, "In keeping with the old promise, O Guardian, please open the doors for the Academy." ”

As soon as Sylbey's chant ended, the pitch-black brick wall shook, and scraps of bricks kept falling between the bricks, and the white magic array made of chalk suddenly burst into orange flames, and then Suo knew why the brick wall was full of smoke and fire.

The flames were fleeting, leaving only the black traces of the delicate and cumbersome magic array. Then the brick in the center of the brick wall shrank back, revealing a small black hole, as if someone had been pushed from this side to the other side of the wall, and then from around this small hole, the brick continued to shrink, revealing a hole about 2 meters high in tens of seconds.

Silbert glanced at the void and said with satisfaction: "The student union will open the door here at 12 noon every day, please wear your school badge before 12 o'clock in the evening, remember to return to school before 12 o'clock in the evening, before 10 o'clock to be exact, because the entrance control time of the dormitory is 10 o'clock!"

As soon as Silbey's words fell, the students waiting behind him let out a cheer, and the wizards who had already put on their golden school crests early and thanked them before entering the black hollow.

Moira took out her school badge from her pocket and pinned it carefully to her chest, but the gold badge had no pins, but was "glued" to her clothes by a magical force. So students don't have to worry about it falling, let alone having their expensive clothes poked with small holes.

After bringing the school emblem, Moira excitedly took Lin Moyang's hand and hurriedly walked towards the black door, and it could be seen that this young freshman really liked shopping.

"Xiaomo, remember to be a good guide for your seniors, don't patronize yourself and be playful, I'll come to you when I'm done." Silbe looked at Moira's eager appearance and said helplessly. Usually heavy schoolwork, in fact, these students don't have a lot of time to visit Shadow Street, and Moira's family background is not good, her parents are just ordinary people, but her grandmother used to be a witch, so Moira still received an admission letter from Merlin College, and she also chose to study, it was at this time that her grandfather found out that his wife who had been with him for so many years was actually a witch who often appeared in stories. Fortunately, her grandfather was a World War II veteran, and his own psychological endurance was very strong, and he was not the kind of person with a small belly, otherwise how could the family have time to send her to study?

"Also, senior, it's important for you to deal with your own affairs, Xiao Mo can't stop when she walks around, don't delay your own affairs in order to accommodate her. Silbert looked apologetic, and it seemed that Moira's over-feisty problems at some point were also giving her a headache.

"Ah~ The little fire dragon is fine~ What's the matter, Your Excellency Sueyang~" Moira hugged Silbey affectionately, and gently smacked Sylbe's forehead~ The kissing Sylbe's face was flushed, Sylbe's body was originally small, and Moira's body was more tall and mature, so Moira was like Sylbe's senior sister. The surrounding students whistled excitedly, and Sylbey shyly pushed the crazy girlfriend away. "Alright, okay, don't make a fuss. Let's go. ”

Moira nodded, and pulled the bewildered Lin Moyang into the black door.

Obviously, on the other side of the door, you can only see a pitch black, but after entering the door, it suddenly brightens. On the other side of the door appeared to be the office of the Merlin Academy of Magic, where several student council officers in student council uniforms were pulling a few new students who were coming to Shadow Street for the first time to explain some precautions.

Lin Moyang looked at this open hall with some amazement, with the heavy oak floor under his feet and colorful glazed windows all around, as if he had suddenly returned to medieval Europe, everything was so simple and elegant. Even the top of the table can be seen clearly in the wood grain, not the pressed board pressed from the wood chips. If it weren't for the fact that all the students in this hall were still wearing modern clothes, it really made Lin Moyang feel like a world away.

The officers under the kerosene lamp saw that there was a new person coming out of the door, so they subconsciously glanced at it, trying to tell if it was a freshman, but they saw Lin Moyang who was being pulled by Moila at a glance, and several officers immediately surrounded him cordially.

"Is Your Excellency the Agent also coming to visit Shadow Street? Is it Moira, you are the guide? Okay? Why don't you come to take over my class, and I will accompany Your Excellency the Agent to go shopping?" The one who spoke was a heroic girl, who seemed to be older than Moira, and should also be a senior cadre of the student union, she had already rushed to Lin Moyang's eyes as she spoke, and said enthusiastically: "Let's go, Your Excellency the Agent~ I must be much more interesting than a little girl like Moira~ I swear that the hotel here is also ......"

Before the woman's passionate words were finished, Moira had already pushed a hand into her face: "Go, go, Senior Sister Catherine is looking for a man to find those juniors, how can Your Excellency the agent take a fancy to you." ”

Catherine said undiscouragedly: "How can there be such a good man as Your Excellency Surrogate among the younger brothers? I am not the kind of casual woman, but Your Excellency Surrogate guarded my back on the school bus, which is really too great! My girl's heart is about to melt by him!"

This is an operator carrying things next to him passing by, he joked: "There were 7 or 8 girls among the agents guarded by the acting senior at that time, how do you know that the senior is guarding you? And according to the students present, you all fainted at that time, how did you see the great figure?"

After speaking, the operator said to Lin Moyang with a helpless face: "I'm sorry, senior, Catherine is really not that kind of casual girl, she just feels that this can capture your heart more, I bet she must be nervous now." ”

Catherine was pierced at the bottom, and her face immediately turned red all the way to the base of her neck, and she stepped on the traitor's foot and scolded: "Richard, you talk too much!"

Richard deftly dodged Catherine's kick, and then Lin Moyang realized that the operator who was carrying things was the student council agent who was invited to dinner by Green that day, and the guy was crying while eating that day, and there were a lot of envious, jealous and hateful students around him, and as a result, Green gave him a banquet.

"Haha, I can't step on it~ Okay, okay, don't make trouble, I have to move this box of dream dust over. Don't bother Your Excellency, hurry up and train the new students!" Richard laughed as he carried the box towards the black door from which Lin Moyang came, and he nodded with a serious expression as he passed by Lin Moyang's side.

Catherine shrank back to the table like a deflated ball, and kept saying in her mouth: "I want to go shopping too, the last time I went shopping was a month ago, and I was bound by work every day." ”

Moira excitedly and excitedly pulled Lin Moyang to walk towards the door. Catherine suddenly grabbed Moira and carefully stuffed a small cloth bag into Moira's hand: "Your Excellency the agent shouldn't have any money to use here, right? I have some pocket money left, you can deal with it first, if the agent wants to buy something, you can help him buy it." ”

Lin Moyang only saw a few strange round coins from the openings of the cloth pockets, all of which were made of silver from the reflection.

"No, no, ah, we do need to go to the bank first, is the Sailfish Bank open today?" Moira asked, tucking the cloth bag back into Catherine's hand.

"What are you going to do?" asked Catherine curiously.

Moira whispered into Catherine's ear: "Your Excellency has a Nibelon Coin, gold! We have to quietly deposit the gold in the bank, and then exchange it for some ordinary silver coins to use." ”

Catherine covered her mouth, although she was from a noble family and her family was much better off than that of an ordinary person like Moira, she was not generous enough to be able to use Nibelon Gold coins to pay for her living expenses. Although a Nibelon GEN gold coin is only about 20w US dollars converted to US dollars, but no one will do such an exchange, the Nibelon GEN gold coin is a symbol of wealth, its quantity is constant from the moment it is minted, and because this gold coin is minted from the gold of the Rhine, once this gold coin is not obtained through normal channels, it will be cursed by the Nibelon GEN, so each Nibelon GEN gold coin is kept in the treasury of various families as the most valuable wealth, and is generally used on the most formal occasions to show the solemnity of the transaction and respect for the transaction partner。 One Nibelon Gen coin can be exchanged for 10 ordinary gold coins, and in the territory of wizards like Sister Shadow, you can't swipe cards and use worldly cash, you can only use the ancient currency that wizards have been handed down. Therefore, the Students' Union also provides a basic cash exchange service, which charges a 2% service fee at a time. Students are constantly taking out their cash and credit cards and exchanging them for silver and copper coins in their pockets, and it is very rare to exchange them for several gold coins. In fact, the academy didn't have much to prepare for gold.

Catherine took back her pocket, this kind of silver coin can be circulated in most places where there are wizards, so it can also be used in Merlin Academy, she belongs to the more conservative family wizards, so she often carries this kind of currency with her.

"Then be careful when you go shopping, you have to introduce your Agent well, if you have a dispute with someone, come to the office of our college, and we will ......" Catherine taught bitterly, as if her sister was teaching her sister, and she couldn't help but repeat what she often repeated to the freshmen, but halfway through her speech, she suddenly showed an embarrassed expression and patted her head: " Ah, I forgot, Your Excellency the Agent is here, even if someone wants to bully our Xiaomo, he shouldn't be able to beat Your Excellency the Agent. Then you two have a good stroll~ I'll see if I can find time to sneak out and play for a while. ”

Moira got the favor and nodded obediently, took Lin Moyang's hand and walked towards the gate again.

As soon as he stepped out of the gate, Lin Moyang almost stopped breathing, the spacious and tidy streets were lined with quaint kerosene street lamps, wizards in robes and different faces entered and exited all kinds of strange signs, and the crowd was occasionally overhead with the squealing sound of pleasure from people on broom horses. It's like going back to the 14th century on the streets of Europe, where the smell of science is almost imperceptible.

This is Shadow Street, one of the wizards' refuge, a real corner of the wizarding community built in the shadows of England.

Lin Moyang involuntarily took a deep breath and found that even the air was full of unpolluted freshness, and there was even a faint earthy smell mixed with grass. This is the true appearance of the wizard's side!

Moila pulled Lin Moyang and said to the largest building on the far side of the street: "That's the Sailfish Bank~Let's go save money first~"
