Chapter 192: Academy (3)

"Anjie, you're back, it's really good that you're okay!"

Seeing Angelo, the young man who was originally lying on the bed reading a book was stunned for a moment, and then jumped down.

"Yes, I'm back. I'm sorry to worry you, Jira. Angelo stepped forward and gave a hug to the boy, who was his older brother, Gila Roynara Rothschild.

"It's okay, it's good to come back, it's good to come back, you don't know how worried I am. I've heard about you, you came to Oroyosta with the Western envoys. "Jira has similar facial features to Angelo, but she doesn't have the same big face as his father, and the whole person is much more energetic and flexible.

"Well, yes, a lot has happened during this time, you won't believe it......" Angelo sat down on the bed. The living conditions of the college are very affluent, as long as they can afford to pay for a villa for each student, it is not a problem, but because they are not financially well-off, the two brothers live together.

"What's the matter? Tell me about it, and how is his father?" said Jira, who sat across from her, looking at her long-lost brother.

β€œ... Father is fine, his status in the family has improved a lot now......" As he opened his mouth to say a few words, Angelo suddenly couldn't say any more. I don't know why, a very strange feeling of discomfort pervades his feelings, as if something is very wrong, but he can't grasp the specific place for a while.

"What's wrong, is there something wrong?" said Jira, looking at her brother with concern. "Otherwise, you should rest first, you must be very tired when you come back from such a long journey. ”

"No, I just seem to be a little ......" Angelo looked left and right, and suddenly saw the book on the table next to him, which was what Gila was reading before, and the name on the cover was actually 'On the Practical Combat Skills of Mental Arcane', he couldn't help but be stunned. "Why are you looking at this? This is a course that only starts next semester. ”

"Let's preview beforehand, I almost missed the final exam last time, and I was reprimanded by Professor Morris, and I have some lingering feelings. Jira smiled sheepishly.

"Oh, that's right," Angelo nodded nonchalantly. Yes, but Gila wasn't usually reprimanded to change sex, and he would rather lie in bed and read the book of Vestre's poetry from cover to cover, or simply run out of the academy and go to a tavern on the edge of the city for a drink or two, rather than bother to put a little more effort into his homework, in his words, if he was lucky enough to pass this time, why not next time. Of course, it may also be that he really suffered some blow and decided to be serious in his studies, but this matter overlapped with the sense of incongruity just now, and Angelo felt that something seemed to be more and more wrong.

"Alright, seeing that you are so soulless, let's go out for a drink or two together, and listen to you tell you the story of your family while we drink. The bartender in 'The Red-Faced Mermaid' gave me a coupon last time, and today is the last day. Jira walked over and patted Angelo on the shoulder.

The tap on his shoulder woke him up, and Angelo shook his whole body, and he suddenly knew that something was wrong.

The person in front of him who looked exactly like his brother, and whose voice and tone were not abnormal in the slightest, was most likely not his brother.

Along the way, he had studied with that magical Western mage master Mr. Liu for so long, although it was still too far away from the magical Western skills he had idealized, and he hadn't even touched a single edge, but he still learned something in some aspects. For example, the most basic thing is to ask him to stand still in a weird posture for a long time, and to breathe evenly to feel the flow of his own life energy, although this is a bit boring, after insisting on practicing for nearly two months, coupled with Liu Xuanying's guidance, he can already feel the rhythm and breath generated by the operation of bones, muscles, breathing, and internal organs in his body, and can also experience these feelings in other people's bodies through touch and meditation.

It's a completely different feeling from the simple digitization of detective arcane, one is like describing a river in words, and the other is completely immersed in it and swimming with the current. This is something that has completely merged with his perception and become an instinctual habit, and it is this instinctual feeling that has noticed something strange from the moment Gila hugged him just now.

The muscles are slightly tense, and the joint movements are slightly stiff, this is a somewhat guarded and alienated action, and it should not be a hug from an older brother who has been worried about his younger brother after seeing his younger brother come back at first glance. Just saying that this hug is nothing, the flow of qi and blood from the body, the rhythm of muscle and flesh activities, should not be what his brother should have at all.

The muscles and bones work vigorously and rhythmically, and the blood beats vigorously and gently from the heart. This is the same physical condition as the several elite soldiers in the envoy group that Liu Xuanying called in order to explain the example to him, or even stronger, and it should definitely not be the body of his elder brother who has always been the last in the actual combat class.

If it was Angelo before, this discovery would definitely make him jump, or at least stare at this' The elder brother questioned loudly, but after the life and death scenes in Gray Valley Town, and the experience of sneaking into the dwarven lair in the Great Mountain Range with his companions, his city and vigilance were no longer comparable to ordinary academy boys, he knew that this world was not as peaceful as the academy appeared on the surface, in fact, it was full of all kinds of intrigues, violence and mortal dangers, so he didn't forcibly imagine that his brother might have some adventures that caused great changes in his personality and even his body, and at the same time, he couldn't help but show his shock and impulsiveness.

The academy is very safe, in addition to the ubiquitous arcane golems, the protective arcane sequence can also stop any high-destruction arcane arts, and can even automatically use high-level healing techniques on people who have suffered major damage at any time, so Angelo is not too worried about his own safety, he is worried about the real Jira.

He didn't know how the person in front of him disguised himself like this, whether it was arcane or magical, or magical makeup, it wasn't a big deal to hide it from him in appearance, but it was very revealing that he could hide from the academy's supervision mechanism and enter the academy and stay in the academy. The Academy's identification of students is not just based on appearance, but also on the life characteristics and mental fluctuations recorded by the arcane, and if you want to conceal this level of surveillance, you need at least the ability of an archmage or above.

Or maybe it's just something that someone in the academy is doing.

The academy is not simple, the major families have contributed to the establishment of such a huge and magnificent academy, of course, to arrange their own forces in it, the chairman can only achieve the overall control of the overall balance of each other, it is impossible to cover everything. The various intrigues and dirty things between the council and the middle-level professors have long been the most popular complaints and stories among students, and Angelo has heard them countless times. And this 'elder brother', no matter which of the above comes from, is an irresistible behemoth to the two brothers, and can easily erase them from this world completely.

"What's wrong? what's wrong?" said Jira, looking at Angelo with a concerned expression. If you just look at this expression and demeanor, it is indeed an older brother's concern for his own brother, but from the feeling coming from the palm of his shoulder, Angelo can feel that his body is slightly pressed like a spring, and he can burst out with amazing power at any time.

"I suddenly remembered something very important!" Angelo looked at him with wide eyes. "Did Senior Howard get a new student pregnant last time?"

"......" Jira was also stunned, then raised her eyes and tried to remember, and nodded after a while. "It seems to be...... But it's nothing, that junior, I heard that her background is not very good, so maybe she took the initiative. After all, the Howard family is still very good, even if they can't officially get married, being a lover and having a child is also a great benefit to their family. ”

"But he's obviously courting Miss Sophia Felton, isn't he? this guy has no self-control over a pretty woman. Angelo's face was indignant, and he immediately looked panicked again. "Oops, I asked Miss Yuri to give him, it's a send-off. That's the niece of His Excellency the Chief of Staff of the Legation, and if something happens to me, I'll be finished!"

"Eh... Thatβ€”" Jira was completely stunned, seemingly unaware of what to do about the situation, and by this time Angelo had already run out quickly.

Running to the door, Angelo suddenly stopped, turned to Jira and said, "Brother, do you want to come along?" I will now go to the library to find Mr. Feng, the chief of staff of the envoy corps, he is a very powerful and wonderful person. You know the envoys of the 'Qian' Empire? They have a very close relationship with our family now. ”

"Hmm... Imperial Legations?Chief of Staff?" Gila looked bewildered. "Well, forget it, I'm not going..."

"Alright, you just stay here and wait for me, and I'll be back soon. ”

Dropping this, Angelo spread his legs and galloped out. As soon as he ran out of the gate, the anxious look on his face immediately turned into a solemnity, but the speed under his feet did not slow down at all, and he even took the time to use an auxiliary arcane technique that stimulated his physical strength, and ran towards the distance with all his desperate strength.

If it was before, his only choice was to directly find a way to report to the chairman, or make a big fuss and expose this pretender in public to make everyone know, but this is actually not a good way, if there is a force in the academy behind this, it is difficult to say whether he can get the truth, first of all, it is very dangerous for Jira, whose whereabouts are unknown, and who does not know his life and death. And now he has a better choice, he believes in simpler, purer, more powerful power, more determined justice.

in the Faculty Library.

Feng Yinqiu closed the thick book in his hand, rubbed his forehead that was a little painful, and then turned his head to look at the sword of benevolence that was sitting cross-legged on the ground not far away, holding a crystal in his hand, and closing his eyes as if he was pretending to sleep, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

Of course, the Sword of Benevolence is not really sleeping, but is directly reading the information recorded in the arcane crystal with his spirit, which was originally only read by the archmage, but he can actually use it forcibly with the powerful spiritual power of his innate realm.

In comparison, Feng Yinqiu is not good. The true talisman in his divine soul is of course extremely magical, and it can directly resonate with the magic net to rub any arcane arts, but after all, it is a foreign object, and nothing can be done about this basic thing. He also tried, but the various words and images that rushed into his mind at that moment were so complex that he was dizzy to hold on for about ten seconds.

In fact, there is also this kind of similar thing on the Shenzhou Daomen. After all, compared to simple words and pictures, it is countless times more convenient to directly use methods such as divine empowerment, and each sect has its own secrets, and some of them can be borne by people who have no foundation, but adhering to the principle that the Fa cannot be passed on lightly is generally only used in extremely important secret transmissions, and it is not as everywhere as Ouluo.

At this time, the sword of benevolence opened its eyes and rose to its feet.

"How's that?" asked Feng Yinqiu.

"This thing is really hard, it seems that you need to put your spirit completely on the magic net to accept it normally. The Sword of Benevolence smiled and pinched his eyebrows, as if even he didn't feel easy. "I can't stand two more. ”

"After all, it's much better than this book looks, and the invincible brother has gained a lot from reading this 'fusion promotion element of the soul and the demon net'?"

"I can only barely say that there are only one or two occasionally. The Sword of Benevolence shook his head, looking unsatisfied. "This is the key to casting spells after being promoted to an archmage, I haven't used it yet, and these arcane techniques are becoming more and more complex to the point of advanced law, there are too many specialized arcane terms, and the deconstruction of a core equation is a long and exhaustive discussion, if you talk about the degree of complexity, any seven-ring arcane is dozens of times more than the six-ring arcane. These things are too nerve-wracking, and they are far less convenient than the subtle words of our Shenzhou Dao system. ”

"The subtle words of the Shenzhou Taoist system are not something that everyone can understand. Feng Yinqiu smiled and shook his head. There are more than 300 Yin Fu Bao words, only 5,000 moral spiritual texts, and the four books and five classics that are regarded as classics by Confucianism are not seen at length, and Buddhism has more Buddha who says that it cannot be said or said, but there are very few people who can truly understand the essence of righteousness from these small words, and more are distorted and then embarked on the wrong path. And this Euro arcane is the way of instrumentation, everything is explained clearly from the beginning, and it is very easy to get started, but in the end, it is like a machine that is getting bigger and more complicated, and it is getting more and more difficult to get up step by step.

"Brother Feng, do you understand the book you read?" The Sword of Benevolence pointed to the book in Feng Yinqiu's hand, which was "On the Judgment Mechanism of the Golem".

"That's pretty much, but you have to start from scratch to fully understand the terms and equations. However, the general meaning seems to be the same as what Brother Invincible said, the judgment methods of those golems and arcane creations are inherently very mechanical and rigid, but recalling that the wind elemental that the chairman sent that day dealt with it decently and wittily, it is really hard to believe that it is a dead thing as lifeless as a mechanical beast. Needless to say, even Daochang Liu was extremely surprised. ”

"Haha, this is probably the ultimate fake to come true. If you are too lazy to read these books, you can just ask the chairman when he is free. ”

"That's right, then I'm too lazy to read these books. It's too fragmentary and cumbersome, not to mention, compared to the transformation of divine thoughts in this crystal, it's really impatient to read slowly. Feng Yinqiu also sighed and closed the book in his hand. Turning his head to look around, he saw that this magnificent and vast space was full of dense crystals of all kinds of books and materials. Even if the book information of this scale is described as sweaty, it is far from enough, as long as you think that the book in your hand is only one of the insignificant among these tens of millions, it really makes people lose the desire to read it.

"Then don't look at it. The Sword of Benevolence took the book in Feng Yinqiu's hand and walked outside.

Outside was a slightly smaller hall, and on a huge counter in the middle, an old mage with crystal glasses and gray hair and beard was looking through a thick book, and the Sword of Benevolence stepped forward and handed the book and crystal to the old mage, and said with a very respectful attitude: "Master, these books and materials seem to be too difficult for us, is there anything like the Arcane General Compendium that can be summarized simply? Or the kind of arcane data crystal that can be easily read by ordinary people?"

The old mage closed the book, lifted the crystal glasses on the bridge of his nose, looked at the Westerner in front of him and smiled, and said in a somewhat leaky accent: "The vastness and depth of arcane art are as endless as the universe of ten thousand stars, arcane alchemy, golem construction, life realm, spiritual realm, elemental realm...... I know that you newcomers will want to learn everything right away when they see the vastness of an arcane civilization, but in the face of such a great culture, you must first learn to be humble and patient. ”

"As for the data crystal that ordinary people can easily read, there are actually some of them, but that thing is relatively laborious and resource-intensive to make, after all, it is necessary to construct a buffer arcane that allows ordinary mages to accept information, and there is a fixed number of uses, so it will not be placed in this kind of public library, and it is a personal item belonging to the professors. You two have accepted an invitation from a professor to make a request to him. ”

"Got it, thank you for your advice. The Sword of Benevolence nodded and stepped back.

β€œ... Invincible brother, why are you like this?" Feng Yinqiu, who had been following beside him, was only stunned, and couldn't help but ask in amazement after leaving this management hall.

"How's that?"

"Why did you do this to the old man...... You're welcome?"

"Shouldn't you be polite to an old man who guards the library alone and provides us with instructions?"

"......" Feng Yinqiu didn't know how to answer for a while. Normally, this sword of benevolence is arrogant and disdainful in the face of anyone, even if he is a high priest who is admired by everyone, an archmage with extraordinary strength, and a high-ranking duke, in his eyes, it seems that he is nothing more than a lot of sentient beings, but now he has a lot of respect for the old mage who guards the library, which is really incredible.

Thinking of this, Feng Yinqiu couldn't help but turn around and look at the old mage on the big counter, but he still didn't see anything unusual, just a dying high-level mage. This Euro arcane is not as compatible with heaven and earth as the Shenzhou Dao Law to conceal the breath, this old mage's breath is weak and flesh decay, and there is no arcane in his body, even a pair of presbyopia and loose teeth have not been repaired with arcane transformation, it is indeed just an ordinary old mage.

"Haha, I know you're weird. The Sword of Benevolence laughed and took out his usual face again. "I'll tell you Brother Wind, I've heard that this librarian is a first-class magical profession in the Myriad Star Universe. Needless to say, Lao Jun, the ancestor of my Shenzhou Daomen, there are other super hidden masters who hide deep in their names but can beat the so-called various masters at will as soon as they appear, as well as super leaders who can lead their men to the sea of stars to maintain justice and peace, and great friends who can turn the world upside down and dare to change the sun and the moon into a new sky. Do you know if this seemingly ordinary old mage is some kind of magical person, and even if it is not, it is okay to simply show respect for this profession. ”

Feng Yinqiu tilted his head and sneered, knowing that the crazy words of the Sword of Benevolence were coming again. Fortunately, the spirit of this former cult high priest was a little abnormal after being hit by the gods, and he often said some inexplicable and inexplicable things, but on the whole it was still reliable.

There was a rush of footsteps outside the door, and as soon as the two of them turned their heads, they saw Angelo rushing into the hall outside, shouting: "Mr. Wind, Your Excellency the Sword of Benevolence, I have something very important here......

"The library must be quiet, and all noise is strictly prohibited!" The old mage on the counter closed his books and glared angrily at the rude student who rushed in, and as he stretched out his hand, Angelo, who had just rushed in, disappeared in place.
