Chapter Seventy-Five: Results
In the end, Ike was not so interested in Su Ze's Ranger story, and just listened to it with a mentality that talk is better than nothing. After all, after all these years, the novelists of the main plane have produced many similar works, and Ike is bored on weekends and does not want to go to the church of the Holy Light with his parents, so he has spent many boring afternoons hiding in the bookstore to bury himself in this kind of ranger biography. I'm quite familiar with this kind of old-fashioned story.
"But Brother Ze, the background setting of your story is very novel, and what kind of monks, mortals, martial arts masters, martial arts masters, etc., it's not like other people only write about knights, fighters, and the like. The ending is also a rare tragedy, but the dead protagonist, or the dead male protagonist is a bit poisonous, remember to change the ending next time you tell others, otherwise people may scold you!
There is no need to follow the old routine, the ending is changed to the five of them will continue to travel like this, and it is good to be chivalrous and righteous! The rest is quite good, and it can be regarded as a classic!"
Ike only read half of the cool text, and put forward some suggestions for revisions to things that he was not very satisfied with, and then summarized the story and announced that Su Ze could be published. Su Ze had to smile when he heard this, but Janet stared at Su Ze for a long time, with a strange color in her eyes, as if she was looking at some treasure!
......
After more than 20 years of experience, I can barely talk for more than ten days, plus eating and sleeping, getting out of the car to breathe, which is enough to kill this boring time. In the process, although all kinds of emotions came back to his heart, especially in the last battle, although Su Ze tried his best to ensure that he was in a peaceful mood, he also had to stop many times to sort out his thoughts under the excuse of calming his mind, but at the end of the speech, he said to himself in his heart: "It can be regarded as an end to my past." ”
By the time Ike finished his concluding remarks, there were already more cars and horses around, and the three of them looked out through the car window, only to see the bustling population and traffic in the distance, and they knew that Los Angeles was in sight!
Janet knew how to get in touch with Cathy, so when she entered the city, Janet said the name of the place, and the coachman was surprised and asked, "Are you sure it's Rockefeller Avenue? ”
Janet nodded, then pulled out a badge and said, "You can hang this on the headlights!"
When the coachman saw that it was the badge of the Dalton family, his face was even more respectful, and he replied carefully: "Yes, miss!"
............
By the time the two families had been settled, it was already the afternoon of the third day. After saying goodbye to their families, Suze and Janet went to the club together to ride the Airbus. Although Su Ze can resist the sword, he still has to keep a low profile in this kind of place where Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is.
As soon as I got out of the car, I saw Janet looking at her ID card, which was flashing non-stop. She looked at it for a while before saying, "Aze, the list of rewards for this battle to capture the tower has come out, and I am the third place." If you do that, you'll be number one!
Su Ze nodded when he heard this, "Well, then what is the reward this time?"
Janet shook her head and said she didn't know: "It's not written on it, let's take our identity cards and go to the Academy's No. 1 secret vault to get it, but let's go to Mentor Catherine first and ask who is on the list this time!"
Su Ze didn't object, so she led the way in front: "Today, Monday, Tutor Catherine should have returned to her residence after class by now, let's go directly to her!"
The two of them walked all the way to the outskirts of the academy. Although the academy tutors also have dormitories in the mage towers of their respective departments, they prefer to stay outside the academy unless there are any special circumstances. After all, as long as it is within a radius of a few miles in the place where the bones are buried, it is the radiation range of the mage tower, whether it is an amplification magic array or a defensive prohibition, the effect and power are almost the same, but it is a little more private space benefits.
If it weren't for the fact that the academy didn't allow low-level students to do this, Su Ze would have wanted to build a residence near the academy, after all, there were quite a lot of things on him that couldn't be seen.
Maybe digging a cave is more in line with the identity of a monk, if that's the case, then you need to buy some defensive magic arrays, but it's a pity that there is no cave defense formation in the relics of your ancestors, otherwise it will be perfect.
But this kind of thing, Su Ze can just think about it, if it is true that all good things fall on his head, then why do you still work hard to meditate and refine qi, explore and hunt for treasures, and sit at home and wait for the ascension!
The two of them chatted all the way, and in about ten minutes they arrived at Catherine's house: it was a treehouse, and the whole house was resting on a very large banyan tree, and the house and the banyan tree were covered with all kinds of flourishing vines, as if they were tied together. The strange thing is that the whole wooden house does not even have a window, and there is only a delicate, carved wooden door all around, and in front of the door is a rope ladder lowered from the tree for people to go up and down!
Seeing the pattern on the wooden door, Su Ze knew that this was another magical creation.
Janet beckoned to Su Ze and motioned for him to follow him up the rope ladder later: "I'll go up and knock on the door first, you're following!"
Su Ze smiled: "Where is it so troublesome, I just go up and get it!" After that, he didn't use mana, and directly relied on the light effect of Treading Lang Song to pedal up in a few steps, and jumped down after knocking on the door.
Janet didn't feel the mana of Edgeworth, so she smiled and asked, "Is this what you call martial arts?"
Su Ze nodded in surprise, "Miss has good eyesight, haha!"
While the two were talking, the wooden door opened. Catherine's voice came from inside, "Come in!"
Hearing this, Janet said, "Thank you, Mentor Catherine!" After that, she lifted her skirt and walked towards the rope ladder, Su Ze smiled when she saw this: "Why do you have to climb up, I'll just carry you up!"
After saying that, she stepped forward to hug Janet's slender waist, Janet glanced at the direction of the cabin, hesitated for a while, and finally did not refuse!
Su Ze grabbed Janet, lifted her body and stepped to the top, and then the two walked into Catherine's residence.
The magic creation really has a cave, from the outside it is just an old wooden house, the space inside is quite large, there are five rooms that are divided, and there is a window on all sides, so that you can see the scenery outside, but Su Ze doesn't know what kind of magic can do it.
Because of the arrival of the two, Catherine was waiting for them directly in the living room, obviously knowing their intentions, so she took the lead in speaking: "Are you here to ask about the reward?" Seeing the two nodding, she took out a list and handed it to Su Ze, and then as if she had found something, she said in surprise, "Good job! Huh...... I didn't expect you to hide it so deeply, I thought you wouldn't be able to digest it for more than 20 years, but I didn't expect that your mental strength had increased by nearly half after only four months, and it was really ......."
It's terrible!
In Catherine's memory, it is not uncommon for a talent like Su Ze to finally advance to the ninth level of magic, but there is really no existence like him who skips a grade every year or two, and Su Ze's luck is really strong and terrifying.
Su Ze smiled slightly when he heard this, he knew that Catherine was surprised that she had broken through the foundation building in the battle to capture the tower and caused the upper limit of her spiritual power to increase again after accepting Allison's gift of spiritual power, so he explained: "At that time, it was because of the selfless gift of Mentor Allison, and later there was a little gain in the battle to capture the tower, so I have today's cultivation, which is not enough!"
"Aze, look!" Janet handed the list to Su Ze with some surprise, then looked at Catherine and said, "Mentor Catherine, what's going on, why is Su Ze ranked last?
Su Ze took the list and looked at it, the first place was Richie with 150 items, followed by Janet with 120 items, Wayne and Julia ranked third and fourth with 92 and 91 respectively, and the fifth to eighth places were occupied by fire, wind and two fourth-level magicians of the light system respectively, Cronin barely occupied the ninth place with 86 items, and the tenth place was won by Su Ze with the highest number of items.
There are a total of ten people on the list, and all of them are normal except for Su Ze's ranking, but the first place becoming the last place is the strangest part, if the academy doesn't explain, I'm afraid it won't be able to convince the public.
Catherine first sneered, then glanced at Su Ze appreciatively and said, "It's just that some people are red-eyed and have some conspiracies! Also, didn't you say that you don't need to call me a tutor in private, just call me senior sister! After all, we are all one teacher!" After speaking, he took out another document and handed it to Su Ze, motioning him to read it for himself.
Janet obediently called out to Senior Sister when she heard this, and Su Ze looked at Catherine in surprise, but she didn't expect that she was also Acheson's disciple.
Then he looked down at the document, not so much a document, but a notice, the content of the notice is related to this battle to capture the tower: the academy affirms that in the battle to capture the tower, any actions done by the students will not be investigated, whether it is to avoid the battle and hide, or to kill the magician of the academy, any survival actions made by the participants are considered reasonable, and those who know do not need to report such situations to the academy, and the victims are allowed to take revenge on each other, but only for individuals, and family forces are not allowed to interfere!
After reading the announcement, Su Ze remembered his grievances with Andrew. At this time, he heard Catherine laugh and said: "Don't care about those clowns, it's not a day or two that the light department wants to replace our dark department, and someone just sent a pillow this time, so I will catch you and don't let go! What is the crime of killing the magicians of the same house is unforgivable, and they don't want to think about how little they killed when they were at the lower level? What can't survive is waste, what is the waste to spend so much effort on the waste." ”
The meaning of Catherine's words is that someone reported that she killed her classmates, and then she was bitten by the people of the light department to punish herself, and in the end, although she was saved by the dark department, but the reward ranking was reduced to the last place, and this announcement can be regarded as a product of the game.
Su Ze heard this and asked, "It's Wayne!"
has a grudge against himself, except for the Surrey family, there is only one inexplicable Wayne who has an inexplicable feud, Andrew was sent by the Surrey family, and now he is dead, obviously this matter is not unrelated to the Surrey family secretly fueling the trouble. Su Ze is also a layman, he can repay his kindness, but he can't repay his grievances with virtue. At this moment, there was a nameless fire in his heart, and he hated both of them to the core, and if he found an opportunity, he would definitely make them unable to turn over.
Catherine saw that Su Ze's face was gloomy and angry, so she smiled and said, "Why bother with these things. You have already proved your value by killing Andrew this time, don't worry, don't mention the academy, even our dark department won't let them make any small moves, you just need to cultivate with peace of mind!"
"But!"
She said with a slightly unfinished taste: "It's a pity that the rewards of the top three have a bloody fruit and two self-selected fifth-level magic spells plus a third-level magic item, if it is given to you, it will be perfect, and the last seven will only have two self-selected fifth-level magic spells plus a fourth-level magic item." ”
Among the ten people, four of them are in the dark department, and two are still in the top three, which can be regarded as the leader, but I didn't expect Catherine to be satisfied, it seems that the strength of the dark department where she is located is also the top in the place of bones!
However, he didn't talk, and this kind of topic involving the dispute between the departments is not what he is talking about now.
Then I heard her say playfully: "I didn't expect you to be able to kill Andrew, I have also seen that guy, although he is hypocritical and vicious, his strength is very good, and he is still a demon and martial arts double cultivator." It seems that you kid is not simple!"
The runes appeared in her eyes and disappeared in a flash, Su Ze didn't feel the traces of the mental power scan, obviously Catherine was just calculating Su Ze's relative strength based on Andrew!
Su Ze secretly said to himself, his calculation method was only preliminary, and he couldn't do this kind of complicated calculation for the time being.
Remembering that he escaped only when his first hole cards were exhausted, he replied with a happy face: "It's all a fluke, plus a powerful magician from Jean Aoun's Academy joined forces to barely kill him!" but ......" his tone was cold, and he said sternly, "Andrew deliberately slaughtered the disciples of this academy in the battle to capture the tower, not to mention that he was entrusted by others to take my life, and this alone he has a way to die!"
"Alright, whether he's damned or not, is his magic ring on your hand now?" Catherine asked without feeling much of Suze's indignant words, and turned instead to make any comments.
Two magic rings cannot be stored against each other, and the same goes for storage rings. Therefore, after Su Ze and Hardy divided the spoils, both of them had storage (magic) rings, and no one mentioned Andrew's magic ring, so Su Ze put it in the inner pocket of the mage robe. At this time, when Catherine asked, he took it out and handed it to Catherine.
Without waiting for Su Ze to ask, Catherine took the initiative to explain: "This ring has a magic mark of light, and it is easy for you to trouble you in the future with them." Besides, you already have one, why don't you sell this thing to me, I can just give it to a junior!
There is really no way to refute what he said. Who told people to be strong enough and not afraid of people from the Light Department looking for trouble, Su Ze had to pinch his nose and admit: "Then thank you for the help of the mentor!" Not only can you not object, but you also have to thank others for their help at this time!
"Tut-tut, you seem to be reluctant to hear your tone. What do you think of a bloody fruit and a third-level magic item, but in this case, the fourth-level magic item in your reward will have to be compensated, after all, although the magic ring is rare, the value is still a little insufficient!"
After Catherine's words, not only Janet reacted, but Su Ze also understood that this was the dark system compensating for herself, since the reward was clearly erased, then secretly the mentor and the student always did not talk about trading items.
Knowing this, Su Ze immediately said gratefully: "Okay, thank you mentor!"
Catherine waved her hand and smiled, "Thank you, it's just a 'fair' deal!"
Yes, as long as Su Ze can reflect his own value, then there is so-called fairness (privilege)!
