279. Misunderstanding about identity
Of course, Bai Yi will not come back in time for Grace Day, he will create a little accident at that time, calculate the time just right, and ensure that when he comes back, it will be exactly past the day of December 5th, so that there will be no problem if he misses Grace Day, right?
As for the little ones who want to celebrate the festival, it doesn't matter, anyway, Grace Day will have a celebration that lasts for 10 days, and it's always okay to play with them for the remaining 9 days, right? In this way, neither will he be alone for the festival, nor will he let the children be unable to celebrate the festival, Bai Yi is still very satisfied with his plan.
Of course, before the trip, there are two things to deal with first, one is naturally the issue of rank certification, before and after the Grace Day, the Mage Association will also enter the vacation, and there are a lot of various things after the festival, it is better to do it as soon as possible, and the scholars took out the paper that Bai Yi wanted, and after Bai Yi copied the paper, he also attached a letter, expressing his hope to enter the certification process as soon as possible.
Another thing, that is naturally to find a place to travel in advance, Bai Yi has actually already found a place - after the previous battle with Taius, the twenty percent of his power stranded outside was not idle, but roamed between the planes with a little of his consciousness, slowly looking for those new planes that had not yet been discovered.
Just recently, this kind of inefficient exploration activity has actually made unexpected progress, and it has really found a small plane suitable for human activities for Bai Yi!
This plane is very small, the area is almost the size of 5 Yafen City, such a projectile land is obviously not suitable for the establishment of state power or anything, and it is impossible to develop any intelligent species, but the environment is unexpectedly beautiful, mountains, rivers, green forests and valleys are everything, just like a fairyland independent of the world.
This place is very suitable for outings and adventures with children, you can enjoy this pure natural scenery, and you will not encounter any danger, Bai Yi has used the small wisp of consciousness to roughly inspect this place before, and did not find any signs of intelligent life activities, nor can you detect any power reaction, at most there are some lively and cute little animals.
In short, the Voidwalkers all agreed that this place was indeed good and suitable for travel, and this time Bai Ye did not receive any spiritual hints.
The point is that this is not only a good place to play, but if conditions allow, it seems like a good choice to establish a future academy here? There is no surveillance by the church, and there is no worldly tediousness, and Bai can do whatever he wants.
Of course, everything has to wait for a careful investigation in the past, so Bai Yicai is anxious to complete the rank certification quickly, because many of the materials needed to build the plane teleportation array belong to the controlled products under the monopoly of the mage association, and he must purchase it through the mage association, and he must report it before he can build the plane teleportation array.
Today's class continues to be taught by Teacher Shark, Bai Yi rushed to the Mage Association branch in Yafen City early in the morning to submit his thesis, he has to finish it quickly, Aya wrote yesterday that he would come over at noon, looking forward to having a family luncheon with him, he didn't want to let his first teacher be disappointed on the first day.
Coming to the Mage Association that he had made trouble with last time, the table that was smashed by him before had been replaced by a stronger iron table, and the waitress in the back looked at him with strange eyes, Bai Yi didn't say anything, and went straight to the fat man's office, and after pushing the door in, he saw the fat man looking at him a little strangely.
"Can you help me hand it over? This is an academic paper required for rank certification. Bai Yiyang raised the five papers in his hand and asked.
The fat man was stunned for a moment, and invited Bai Yi to sit down first, and then said, "I hope the master actually prepared the thesis so quickly?" I just heard the news yesterday that you plan to participate in the rank certification, and you made a small bet, and you haven't closed the market yet, I didn't expect your actions to be so fast? ”
Bai Yi replied: "After all, I have more time now, and I can toss these things every night." After hinting that he was a soul armor that didn't need to sleep, he asked curiously: "But the handicap you called..."
"It's just a little entertainment inside." The fat man smiled, and there was no doubt about Bai Yi's answer, he just felt a little surprised, and it wasn't to the point of being puzzling, because the paper is a thing, and many of them can be sorted out in the usual research, but they need to be polished and revised when submitting, and this step is nothing if it is faster.
Then the fat man explained to Bai Yi about the handicap, probably that the mage is also a person, and there are various needs of normal people, and when he encounters something that everyone is more concerned about, it is normal to open a handicap and make a small bet, like this time, even if Bai Yi can successfully pass the immortal certification.
What is surprising is that there are slightly more people who bet on him to not pass, and the odds are lower than those who can pass, so it seems that the name promoted by the church for him does not work everywhere?
"You also know that every mage is proud, and sometimes, that pride can turn into arrogance and hubris." The fat man explained with some embarrassment.
"Let's hope there's nothing boring in there." Bai Yi didn't particularly care about other people's opinions, but just said it lightly.
"At this point, you can rest assured, the rank certification process above the legend level is very strict, and there are even representatives of other associations to participate in the supervision, which is absolutely fair, open and just, and no one dares to do anything for this kind of small gamble." The fat man said with certainty.
After that, he looked at the papers on the table with great curiosity, and asked, "Is it okay?" ”
"Of course, it's light, and please correct me." Bai also pretended to be modest and said.
So the fat man opened Bai Yi's first paper, "On the Differences and Advantages and Disadvantages of Rosser-style Circles and Modern Runes in Practical Use in Several Aspects such as Magic Power Utilization, Composition Accuracy, and Manipulability".
Just such an awkward topic, I saw a wisp of sweat oozing from the fat man's brain, he opened the paper and looked at it, it was as if he was reading a book from heaven, he knew all those words, and when they were combined, he didn't know them at all.
This paper is beyond his comprehension... After making such an evaluation, the fat man looked at the second article, "Analysis of the Practical Application of Simplified Rune Magic in Modern Mage Battles"
What the hell are simplified runes? The fat man struggled to recall for a long time before he remembered that this seemed to be a rune magic specially developed by the strange school called Battle Mage back then, because it didn't involve a complex magic circle, he could barely read part of this paper, and just this part made him feel a lot of benefit.
After he read it roughly, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Is there still such a wonderful way to use it?" Although the ideas of those battle mages were at odds with ours, the idea of these simplified runes was really interesting, and in many places it gave me the feeling of being at a loss..."
He already had the intention of taking advantage of his position to transcribe this paper and ponder it carefully, and he believed that if he could eat through the things in it, his strength would definitely increase to a certain extent.
Bai Yi didn't speak, just patiently waited for him to continue watching.
The next three papers on alchemy, engineering, and astrology are the three elective subjects, and the fat man inevitably enters the state of heavenly books, he has almost no involvement in these three disciplines, but the professional atmosphere revealed in the various professional terms between the lines of the paper is still keenly aware of it, which may show that Bai Yi's attainments in these three disciplines are not worse than professionals.
"I can't imagine that Master Hope also has deep attainments in these three disciplines, and many of his views and insights are quite unique." The fat man pretended to be fat and said.
Bai Yi smiled secretly in his heart, he knew that this fat man must not have understood, but he didn't break the words, and said politely: "Then please ask the president to hand it over for me." ”
"Don't worry, I'll arrange it for you right away!" The fat man said affirmatively, then leaned back on the table and chair, with a relieved look on his face, and continued: "After reading your papers, I believe that my hundred gold coins are stable. ”
Isn't this guy a little fun? However, considering his status as a city branch president, this hundred gold coins is really just a small gamble.
The matter was done, and Bai Yi was about to say goodbye and leave, but he had just gotten up when he heard the fat man stop him behind him and asked, "Uh... Forgive my curiosity, Master Hope, if you wouldn't... It's the immovable sage back then, right? ”
"The most knowledgeable sage in the history of the legendary Gate of Mysteries has left a strong mark on the academic world and engraved his name in history, but it is said that he has never left the Gate of Mysteries since he entered it, and few people have seen him in his true face... His papers were only stamped with the seal of his great sage, and almost no one knew his real name... I hope your Excellency, it can't be you, right? I think only that kind of person is worthy of your profound knowledge. The fat man babbled again.
Bai Yi shook his head, and after denying it first, he replied: "There are many people like me in the Gate of Mysteries, but everyone is obsessed with the ocean of knowledge and cares about other things. The things in the world are far less wonderful than the world in the books. ”
Although he said so, what he thought in his heart was: You open your eyes and take a good look, what point do I look like that super-old leftover girl squatting at home?
