Chapter 18: Family Change

Recently, there has been a lot of noise in the city, and even the most indisputable colleges can feel the tense atmosphere.

Since the destruction of Bede Cathedral by an unknown modeler, the Lord of the City has declared a state of emergency in the city. The college also promulgated measures: all students are not allowed to linger on campus at night except for classes, and must be accompanied by a teacher in case of emergency; No one is allowed to leave the campus without permission unless they have a special assignment in place. Violators will be punished with warnings, expelled from prison at worst, and even jailed for those who are severe.

For a while, people were panicked, and there was no longer the usual relaxed atmosphere on campus.

Due to the promulgation of the new measures, Du Yuhan's night practice plan had to be shelved. After spending a few nights in the dorm room staring at Edie, he really didn't want to waste time, so he simply asked Kevin to introduce him to the model teacher at the academy, planning to use this time to get to know the model artist profession well.

After a few days of auditing, Du Yuhan learned about the history of the modeler, and finally knew the purpose of the iron box.

The so-called "rules" are actually gifted modelers, who oscillate the fighting energy in their bodies and emit a special physical magnetic field, and use the energy fluctuations emitted by this magnetic field to build the most basic mesh.

It is then transformed through a bracelet engraved with special runes, and the energy is converted into the most basic material that makes up the white mold - the material. The material is then applied to the grid to synthesize the most basic white mold.

And the iron box, called "Library", is also used to extract the basic materials of real objects, and then assign them to the white mold.

Although the white mold absorbs any material, the properties of the material remain unchanged and do not change. Assuming that the material of the food is extracted, even if it is not preserved and encapsulated, it will not participate in any oxidation reaction and will never deteriorate and spoil.

And all materials are absorbed according to the principle of equivalent exchange. In other words, how much material there is, the white mold can only absorb how much, and the remaining part that is not given is still the most basic material.

In Du Yuhan's view, the biggest advantage of this kind of material extraction compared with the usual alchemy and forging profession is that the wear and tear ratio is extremely low. He even opened his brain, extracted the food that he couldn't eat in the future, and when he was hungry and then gave it to the white mold, wouldn't it be wasted?

What does the material taste like?

When he came up with the idea, he was severely despised by the model teacher.

If you have the skill of a modeler, do you still worry about not eating or wearing?!

Later, under the teacher's explanation, he finally understood why the previous investigation believed that the destruction of the Cathedral was the work of the modeler. According to this setting, the destruction of a city by a high-level model artist is the same as playing, the momentum of destroying the world with a snap of a finger, people can't help but be afraid, no wonder the city lord will be in strict battle, and it is a lockdown and martial law.

If he is fortunate enough to be like that...... It's exciting to think about. Silently swept away the obscenity in his mind that hugged the pinnacle of his life, Du Yuhan carefully looked at the bracelet engraved with special runes.

If it is guided by energy, it should normally not require other external forces. But why do you have to "charge" your bracelet every time you use it? I hadn't heard of using energy to stir up or anything like that before I came here...... I don't think it's written in the manual.

But no matter what the outcome is, there are really a lot of secrets inside the modeling bracelet, and you have to study it carefully when you go back.

**********

At noon that day, Du Yuhan stayed in the dormitory and fiddled with the small iron box in his hand, the library, to test the extraction of various materials. Just when he was just beginning to have a clue about the model, Barton came to the door.

Looking at the burly man with an anxious face, Du Yuhan had a sense of foreboding. "Mr. Barton, ...... you"

"Pack up and get out of here at once." Contrary to his usual grinning expression, Barton said to him sternly.

Right now?

"Is it an urgent mission?" He was stunned for a moment, didn't say a word, and immediately began to clean up.

I heard that senior students would be sent out of the city for practical training, sometimes to complete a designated task, and sometimes to survive in the wild for several days.

After staying in school for so long, Du Yuhan was actually eager to try, firstly to test his strength, and secondly, to find a way to go back.

Barton nodded, but his words flickered, and he took out a letter and stuffed it casually into his hand, "This is the content of the mission, there is a detailed introduction in it, you can study it when you have time." ”

With a little headache, he looked at the words on the oiled paper envelope sealed with wax and oil, although communication is no longer a problem, but he still can't fully understand the words here, he can only be regarded as half-illiterate now.

Du Yuhan had a flash of inspiration, "Teacher Barton, can I team up with others?" ”

Barton's brow furrowed, "This kind of mission is unique, and everyone is different. ”

"Oh......" Du Yuhan was a little frustrated, and suddenly thought of something, "Then if it's not a warrior profession, it's okay, right?" ”

"Who do you want to team up with?"

"My friend Kevin, is a priest." Du Yuhan scratched his head a little embarrassed, "I think multiple people can also take care of each other." ”

He knows very well that based on the understanding of the past few months, he ran out to do a mission, and he was either bitten to death by a wild beast or killed by a profiteer, no matter how unreliable he thought. And Kevin has been out with Noyce for many years, and he must have seen much more than himself, and he can also remind him of any emergencies.

The most important thing is that Kevin is well-read, not to mention knowledgeable, but can I help him see what this task is about......

"Priest?" Barton muttered to himself, "This kind of profession has no ability to protect itself, and you have to protect him if something happens." ”

"Kevin is a third-order holy priest, although his defense ability is not strong, he has a variety of healing methods, at least he can ensure that his life is not in danger." Du Yuhan said patiently, "The entrusted task should not exceed our own strength too much, we can't beat it, are we afraid that we won't be able to escape?" ”

Barton thought about it for a moment and nodded in agreement, "Okay, I'm more relieved that you two are together." ”

Originally, this kind of task could only be completed independently, but in view of Du Yuhan's special situation......

But even so, Barton still had a sad face, and Du Yuhan was a little uneasy in his heart, "Teacher, is this mission dangerous?" ”

"Huh? Well...... Nor can it be said to be dangerous. Barton stopped talking.

"What's wrong?" Du Yuhan's doubts are getting bigger and bigger.

“…… Tut! It's a mission that is dangerous, you kid what are you talking about! Barton was annoyed by the question and slapped him in the head, "Grab your stuff and get out of here!" ”

was beaten and grinned, Du Yuhan didn't say anything more, and quickly packed up his things.

Because it is for the purpose of going out on a mission, in addition to the necessities of life, there is no need to pack some luxuries. Originally, there were not many things, but they were sorted out quickly.

Looking at the handsome and tall young man in front of him standing in front of him waiting for his instructions, Barton couldn't help but sigh that providence made people.

As one of the few high-level professionals in Rob City, he knew a little bit about the information inside the city, including the biological changes outside the city, including the internal affairs of the City Lord's Mansion, and the internal alliance between Garcia and the Charles family......

There are various divisions of forces within each big family, and the tragedy of cannibalism is staged for the sake of profit. Earlier, he received news that Garcia and the Charles family were ready to unite and take advantage of the state of emergency to eradicate dissidents.

And what the Garcia family wants to clean up is the eldest young master of the family, Du Yuhan Garcia.

If it was someone else, he would never ask, this kind of family infighting was a trip to troubled waters, and he didn't want to get into trouble. But Du Yuhan is his student, and he is also one of his favorite students, after a few years of getting along, he can't watch his students die.

Although under his nose, the other party did not dare to make a mistake in his identity, but it was impossible for him to follow Du Yuhan all day long, if he was too busy one day, the other party would definitely take the opportunity to commit a black hand. Moreover, although his prestige in Rob City is very high, it is too unrealistic to compete with two united big families. Besides, this is someone else's family affair after all, and there is no room for an outsider to intervene at all.

Although Barton can't shoot directly, that doesn't stop him from protecting the students in his own way. Knowing that the other party would take action in the near future, he thought about it again and again, and just sent Du Yuhan away in the form of practical training, and came back when the limelight passed.

Finding Barton staring at him with a solemn expression, Du Yuhan felt more and more inappropriate. "Mr. Barton?"

“…… Well. Barton sighed almost inaudibly, "All cleaned up?" ”

"Yes." Du Yuhan nodded.

"There is no deadline for tasks, and they can be completed without hurry. You'd better come back in a few months, so you can use this time to travel and hone your combat skills. Unable to say the reason, Barton turned the corner and reminded Du Yuhan, "You know, what you learn here is not as fast as the promotion outside." ”

Although he was suspicious, Du Yuhan was still obedient.

"You must be cautious when you are outside, and you can't be rash." After a pause, Barton said meaningfully, "You must know that in this world, the most dangerous thing is not all kinds of magical beasts, but people. ”

Du Yuhan had an epiphany.

As a modern person, I have been crawling and rolling in society for several years, and the intrigue between people can be seen through at a glance, but there are still at least precautions. In the current interests, father and son turn against each other, brothers Ni Wall, husband and wife are centrifuged, and friends are strangers.

Although he has come from a society of cannibalism to a society of beasts eating people, with his current strength, if others really have something to do with him, there is really no other way than to stay away from the root cause from the beginning.

The high fighting spirit at the beginning cooled down, and Du Yuhan nodded with a stern expression, "I know." ”

Patton repeatedly advised, "If you encounter a Praetorian Guard, be careful not to attract the attention of the other party. ”

Hearing this, Du Yuhan was very surprised.

The Praetorian Guard was the equivalent of a police officer here, a guarantee of safety, but Barton actually asked him to take precautions, which made him wonder if there was any other intention in this operation. But seeing that the other party had no meaning to explain at all, Du Yuhan didn't ask any more, but just silently remembered the other party's advice in his heart.

"As for Edie, I'll take care of him." Seeing that Du Yuhan was surprised, he was smart and stopped asking, and Barton silently appreciated it in his heart. After thinking for a while, he added: "Recently, the whole city has been under martial law, so try to move during the day and take more roads." ”

"Okay." He had only been with Barton for a few months, and although most of his concern was due to his affection for the original body, Du Yuhan was still very grateful. Compared with those so-called family members, Barton's care is more like the elders of the parents, although strict, but they are all for the sake of the juniors.

"I'm leaving." Du Yuhan's face was solemn and he gave a knightly salute to Barton.

"Be careful on the road." Patton, who had a stern expression, waved his hand and watched Du Yuhan drift away.

Barton sighed to the heavens, he had already done everything he could to help, and the rest was up to God's will.
