Burning the Flame of All Things Chapter 13 - Club Exchange Meeting

Gusuri, the secret room of the library

It's unlike any corner of Gusuri, and even the old courtyard used by the council doesn't look any older than it looks. Intricate inscriptions are carved in every corner, books are displayed everywhere, and those ancient secret histories are extremely thick, made of special materials, and will not be worn out even if they are placed for decades.

Professor Shepherd sits on a wooden chair in the corner, and in the center of the round table is a woodcut of the academy's mountain and sea motifs.

"In fact, there are not many records of Qiqi in the secret books. "Walking on the side was actually Professor Besqi, an authority in the Department of Theology.

"There are many strange beasts in the mountains and seas, many of which have evolved into various myths and legends over time, but the existence of the throne is only remnant of these secret texts and that ancient legend. โ€

"Actually, I'm curious about why some of these beasts have changed their image in the course of China's history. For example, it has evolved into the symbols of fierce and rui. Could it be that they have been fueling human society all this time?"

"Not necessarily, maybe it's just their sublineage, some ordinary murderers. They are the same intelligent race as humans. "The Secret History of the Barren Mountain: Evil Totem" once recorded that in order to fight against Wushan, Qi asked its descendants to instigate ordinary people to participate in the war. Professor Shepherd pushed his glasses.

"Sounds ...... It's not like a king, but it smells like a tricky villain. โ€

"Professor Beschi, I know that you are the authority of the Theological Department, but these beings on the throne are no less than gods to us, they have the power to destroy this world, but more deadly, they are not as stupid as the story describes. He paused: "In the overture to "Origins", they are the earliest rulers of this world. โ€

"You're serious, in fact, those beings are enemies of us, but I always maintain a sense of awe," Professor Beschi kept smiling.

"Qiqi's palace in the East China Sea is also recorded in the secret history. โ€

"The history of the academy is sealed, just like the biographies of heroes, and the history of kings is sealed in those forbidden contents?"

There is such a passage in "Overseas East": The Evil of Extreme Evil has built a sleeping palace in the cold depths of the East for a long sleep. When the throne rises from the cold earth, the eye of sin will be opened again, and all things will be havoc."

"The rise of the seabed means the rise of the throne, and the east corresponds to the East Sea?"

"Not sure. But one thing has already happened, the poor Kia bloodline that appeared out of thin air in City A. โ€

"It's just...... Why would the Poor Bloodline be in that kind of place?"

"I also don't understand that City A's crusade mission is an incident, and at that time, I was just the head of admissions appointed by the college. โ€

"This is really incredible, is it plotting something? Shouldn't a king with the top of power and power be accompanied by a scene of destruction?"

"Maybe the next crusade of the academy will tell us the answer"

South Zone, Gymnasium

The ring has come to an end

Unexpectedly, the last two people standing on the stage were the two more inconspicuous of the sixteen people at the beginning.

"Guess who's going to win?" Ji Jie gestured with his finger in the air boringly. Although he and Lei Xiangtang couldn't get along, when he thought that the two heroes in their class had been eliminated, the mood of watching the excitement began to become depressed.

It doesn't matter who wins, Gu Xiaobei is also bored, he feels that time flies too slowly, much slower than the time on the roof of the old community. In the past, he was just in a daze for an afternoon, but here, everything is so slow that his head is dizzy.

The entrance test ended a little soon, and when those cheers were surging, Gu Xiaobei left the gymnasium early. Maybe it's because his classmates lost, so he feels that the rest of the games are nothing to watch.

At night, the Academy's Shanhai Pavilion

A club exchange meeting is being held here

As Gu Xiaobei, who won the first place in the obstacle race on the entrance test, he was naturally invited. Of course, there are invited, and naturally there are uninvited.

The uniform of the college is beautiful, with a dark blue hue with a gold pattern on the neckline and a piece of the college's logo on the chest. But no one usually shows up here in uniform, except for two sluggish ones.

Gu Xiaobei had been taken by his uncle to participate in the exchange meeting in the city before, Gu Qianqian had almost no rest time in the aristocratic school, so his uncle drove his Mercedes-Benz over to pull Gu Xiaobei to fill up. At that time, Gu Xiaobei was like a mountain man entering the city, probing his brain in the exchange meeting. The men in suits are so handsome, and the women in evening dresses are so beautiful, Gu Xiaobei feels that it is the life of the upper class. That was also the only time Gu Xiaobei wore a suit, and his thin shoulders couldn't be supported, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

The scene here reminded him of the past.

"Why didn't anyone remind you to wear anything, just don't wear the academy's uniform to appear here?" Ji Jie pulled Gu Xiaobei's clothes and said secretly

"How do I know, I just got an invitation and I came. โ€

In the entire Shanhai Pavilion, there are girls in white gauze skirts and boys in uniforms, all kinds of them, but there is no academy blue. Gu Xiaobei and Ji Jie are like two outliers.

Ji Jie was the one who came uninvited, of course, with his cheeky personality, he didn't care if the clothes were suitable or not, he took a glass of wine from the waiter's tray and got into the crowd. It's a place where big communities come together.

Ji Jie slipped away without saying hello, leaving Gu Xiaobei there alone. Except for an invitation letter, Gu Xiaobei didn't know anything about this club exchange meeting, if it weren't for Ji Jie's vigorous encouragement, he wouldn't have come. But when he really got here, Ji Jie slipped away.

Gu Xiaobei remembered this account in his heart, and he decided that he must take revenge on Ji Jie in the future.

"Hello Gu, right?"

This kind of crepe way of speaking made him a little nervous, and when he looked back, he realized that he was a senior in the club. There are many newcomers here, but there is only one who stands stupidly like Gu Xiaobei.

A few polite words are nothing more than words with the intention of inviting Gu Xiaobei to join the club

Sure enough, a small up-and-coming on the entrance test made him gain some popularity. The girl in the white gauze dress sat in the corner playing a pleasant piano music, with a swan neck and a butterfly back, she almost attracted the attention of the boys in the audience

But these are hiccupes

The final focus of the club exchange meeting is still around the center of the hall

Gu Xiaobei could only see the background of that man

He sat on a couch in the center of the hall, and on a round table was a very eye-catching firearm

Revolver!
