"Ahh

With a long sigh and a pale blue magic pen aside, Elizabeth removed her glasses from the tip of her nose and moved her wrist.

This is the legendary dean's office, with large floor-to-ceiling windows that fill the entire wall, and you can look up to see the rugged white expanse of the tundra wasteland.

In front of him was a mountain of papers, since the last visit to the Holy Federation Iverson the Great came back, the legendary dean did not say a word, locked himself in the office to concentrate on reviewing the documents, and before he knew it, three days and three nights had passed.

"I'm so sleepy, I want to sleep......"

The pink and lovely little mouth murmured softly, Elizabeth suddenly felt like a lead block hanging on her eyelids, and subconsciously put her two slender snow-white jade legs on the desk, leaning on the chaise longue and preparing to fall asleep.

That's when --

"Knock knock!"

There was an inappropriate knock at the door.

"Which guy is so upset?" Elizabeth said with some annoyance.

"Dean, it's me." Douglas's voice came from outside the door.

"Come in."

Douglas pushed the door in, handed a document in his hand to Elizabeth, and said with his head lowered as much as possible: "This special assessment, only Lin Yang has passed, this is Lin Yang's evaluation form." ”

"Excellent overall scores?" Elizabeth glanced at it twice, and said listlessly: "Then let's do it, prepare a room for him, the same grade as the exclusive apartment of the sixteen wealthy families, just ask him to come over to study." ”

"Well, there's one more thing ......" Douglas said in a stuttering voice, looking up at the legendary dean's impeccable legs, and suddenly his mind was in a trance, and he quickly lowered his head again.

"He wants to learn the Sage Totem?" Elizabeth asked casually, her eyes opening and closing, and she was sleepy and could fall asleep almost at any moment.

"Yes, so I came to ask what you mean......"

"Let him go to Cicero himself!" The legendary dean threw out a sentence directly.

"Okay, I'll go and tell Lin Yang immediately." Douglas swallowed his spit and asked tentatively, "Dean, this time you went to visit Iverson the Great, how is the Holy Federation doing?" ”

"It's not the same as before, the federal royal family has been secretly accumulating strength all these years, and there has been no big movement in the sixteen wealthy families, and small fights between some nobles around them have happened from time to time." Casually taking out a cherry from the fruit bowl beside him and putting it in his mouth, the legendary dean continued: "Something has happened in the Dusk Plane, and the Eternal Plane and the Gerthas Plane, which are opposite our Ferren Plane, seem to be secretly planning something. ”

"Do we need to say something?" Asked this sentence, Douglaston regretted it.

"Stupid! We're just running a school, not a war! Elizabeth said: "For being able to defend the Icewind Dale and the Snowy Mountains, the outside world has given Jackdaw Castle enough praise and evaluation, although I value my reputation, but I will not become a war maniac!" ”

"That's exactly what the dean said." Keeping his head down as much as possible, Douglas slowly retreated: "That subordinate will leave first." ”

"Wait!" As if suddenly remembering something, Elizabeth screamed and said, "All these years I have only cared about plane travel, and I almost forgot the most important thing!" How is Jackdaw Castle's funding current? ”

"All major families have donated, and in the years that you have been away, the college's funds have barely been able to maintain its operation."

"That's good, that's good, you can go......" Before the words fell, the legendary dean had already closed his eyes.

In fact, what Douglas said means another layer: In the years of your absence, our academy has opened its back door widely, and every time it includes a child of a great nobleman who does not meet the standard, tens of millions of gold coins can be entered...... I wonder how Elizabeth will feel when she understands this?

……

Somewhere in the college, residential areas.

It was still the old house three years ago, Lin Yang stayed in the room, holding a pink letter in his hand.

This is the letter that Alice personally instructed to be forwarded to Lin Yang before leaving.

Slowly opening the letter, there was a dark blue magic card in it, injecting a trace of magic into the card, and a light flew out of the card, shooting a projection on the ground.

"Alice ......" Looking at the projection in front of him, Lin Yang almost couldn't believe his eyes.

The little girl in the past, who has not seen her for three years, has become a slim girl in the projection, the first time she saw Alice, the other party was clearly just a little girl who had no experience in the world, but she didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, she had already reached the cardamom years. The iconic double ponytail is gone, the youthfulness on the face is reduced, the small breasts begin to develop and become fuller, and the waist is more slender......

In short, a little more shy, a little more reserved.

"Lin Yang, when you open this letter, it proves that I am gone." Alice raised her head, a slightly illusory figure, and said slowly.

"Maybe you've always been curious about where I came from, so it doesn't hurt to tell you now, hehe!" Alice smiled sweetly, revealing two small dimples.

"Isn't it surprising that my hometown is in the Eternal Plane? I know, you fool, you must not have guessed. Grandpa and the old guys called me "God-given Son", and I don't know what that title means, but I seem to be the only human who can control and drive the "Eternal Giant" for thousands of years. What the? You don't know what an Eternal Giant is? Let's put it this way, the Eternal Giant is the most powerful mecha warrior in our plane, as big as a mountain, you see? Am I great, great? Hey. However, since the Eternal Plane and the Faeron Plane are antagonistic on the plane battlefield, I have no choice but to conceal my identity, which is a helpless thing......"

"In my three years at the Academy, I had the happiest first year with you, and I will always remember the meal you cooked that night, the money you lent me, and your warm, comfy bed...... Later, you disappeared, and this matter did not attract much attention from the academy, maybe many people thought that you ran away, after all, there are many examples of running away every year, but I know that you will never run away! They don't understand, but I've always known that you seem to be very quiet in the academy, and there are many enemies in the dark! Even in the face of the hottest enemy, you have never flinched, how can you suddenly run away for no reason......" said Alice, who seemed to choke up a little.

"Later, you disappeared completely, and your days at the academy changed completely, and Fanny had a good relationship with me, but she didn't understand what I was worried about...... One year, two years, I waited for you for three years, you never showed up, the students around me graduated and left one after another, I really couldn't wait, plus my grandfather also came, so I had to go back. Alice lowered her head, suddenly raised her eyes, and looked ahead in a daze, as if this projection knew that Lin Yang was in front of her: "Lin Yang, do you know?" I'm in the eternal plane, and I have a lot of brothers, but the feeling you give me is a little different from those brothers, I seem to be ...... I kind of like you. ”

After saying these words, Alice's eyes moistened slightly.

Lin Yang, on the other hand, had a sour nose and couldn't help but roll down tears.

"Fool, I know you must be crying, but I haven't cried yet!" Alice smiled, waved her fist, and said, "In the future, you must come to the Eternal Plane, I have learned to cook, so I will cook for you!" This is a private agreement between us, no repentance, no cheating, no quibbles! ”

The magic projection dimmed for a while, and slowly dissipated.

Lin Yang let out a long sigh and lay down on the bed.

"Eternal Plane, the appointed day......" Lin Yang muttered alone, "I will come, I will definitely come." ”

……

On the other hand, Douglas came out of the legendary dean and did not look for Lin Yang in the first place, but went to find Cicero alone.

No one could understand what this gray-haired old man was thinking in his heart at the moment, maybe he felt that Lin Yang had been trapped in a non-existent plane for three years, and the academy owed something to Lin Yang? Or do you think that Lin Yang has a bright future and is ready to bet heavily on this potential stock? Or is it completely idle, and you have nothing to do?

But one thing is for sure, this is definitely a historic choice.

Out of Jackdaw Castle and into Icewind Dale, Douglas followed a path and slowly walked up the Great Snow Mountain.

Daxue Mountain, located on one side of the Ice Wind Valley, is 10,000 meters high, and the snow on the top of the mountain does not melt all year round, and blizzards often rage.

It was on the top of the Great Snow Mountain with such a harsh environment that a guy named Cicero, as the chief totem mentor of Jackdaw Castle, actually established a hut and lived there in seclusion all year round.

There is also a towering tree planted next to the hut, and under the old tree is a chaise longue, on which Cicero is sitting at the moment, basking in the sun.

Although the weather was not good today, it was not that there was no sun in the sky, but that the surrounding blizzard was so big that it was covered with snow overhead after standing for a few seconds.

Newn, one of the Legendary Dean's closed disciples and Cicero's only disciple, was sitting in the hut, bowing his head in contemplation. On the desktop in front of him was a sketch of the Sage Totem, which seemed to have encountered some problem and could not be solved for a long time.

So what kind of person was his mentor, Cicero?

Cicero has always been rated by the Jackdaw's Castle instructors, with the following opinions: impersonal, eccentric, withdrawn, incomprehensible, and a little neurotic.

And judging from Cicero's appearance, you can vaguely guess his character: he wears a white robe all year round, almost never washed, has a shiny bald head, is skinny, and wears a pair of magic myopia glasses all year round due to vision problems.

"Cicero, long time no see." Douglas finally climbed the snowy mountain, and walked over against the wind and snow, with his nose and face covered with snow at the moment: "Your taste is really special, and you still come out to bask in the sun in this weather." ”

"Each other, each other." Cicero smiled weirdly: "This kind of ghost weather, you actually choose to climb the mountain to visit me, why don't you open a portal and come directly?" ”

"That's how I show my sincerity." Douglas smiled and handed Lin Yang's evaluation form to the other party in his hand: "Take a look, are you satisfied with this kid?" How about accepting him as a disciple? ”

"That mean woman asked you to come?" Glancing at the evaluation form, Cicero said coldly: "Go back and tell her that if you want me to take in an apprentice, she has to climb the mountain to meet me in person!" ”

If there were people from the academy at this moment, they would definitely drop their jaws.

Mean woman?

You must know that the legendary dean is so famous that even the patriarch of the sixteen wealthy families, and even Iverson the Great himself has to give three points when he sees it, how can he ever be called like this?

Of course, at this time and that time, as the only totem master in Jackdaw Castle who can draw the totem of the Sage, everyone knows Cicero's temper, so most of the time they turn a blind eye. In other words, if Cicero quits one day, then the entire great course of the Sage Totem of Jackdaw Castle will completely exist in name only.

How many people have come to the academy for the Sage Totem? I'm afraid more than half.

Offending Cicero is a small matter, and offending more than half of the students is undoubtedly self-destruction.

"Why are you talking so badly?" Douglas smiled dryly: "How many years have we known each other, isn't this little thing just to accept an apprentice after Newn?" Why bother going to the dean's? ”

"Who's friends with you!" Cicero spat on the ground, and the saliva instantly froze: "If I put it here, either let that cheap woman climb up herself, or this kid named Lin Yang is more talented than Nunn, otherwise don't mention it!" Now it is obvious that this Lin Yang's evaluation table is only excellent, and there are five levels of excellence, superb, epic, legendary, and super god on top of excellence, and Newn's original comprehensive evaluation has reached legendary! So there is only one way left for you, as long as that doesn't climb up, I won't accept this apprentice! ”

"You!" Douglas pointed to Cicero's nose, his face flushed, and he could barely speak.

"What are you!" Cicero glared at Douglas and said with disdain: "You are all afraid of that cheap woman, who usually serves like the king of heaven, but I am not afraid of her!" Look at the smoky miasma in the academy that is now being cleaned by her, just leave, and if you leave, she will be missing for a few years, she thinks that Jackdaw Castle was opened by her alone? She thought the Mage Academy was her family's back garden? If it weren't for Archmage Merlin's credit, there might not have been this academy now! Otherwise, why do you think I don't live in a good apartment, I have to live on this snowy mountain, and now I'm still basking in the sun while talking nonsense to you? ”

"Good, good, good!" Douglas said three good words in one breath, waved his sleeves, and went away angrily: "Let's see!" ”

The first contact ended in failure.

……

After all, Douglas is old and cunning, and he will definitely not go to the dean again and ask for his own hardships.

Of course, he was obviously not ready to throw the evaluation form to Lin Yang and leave Lin Yang to fend for himself.

So the old fox came up with a sinister and vicious solution.

"What? Cicero, an old bastard, actually dares to call me a slut? "Our legendary dean, after hearing the rumors, immediately disappeared from his sleepiness, jumped up from his chair, and almost burst into rage.

"Yes, yes." A junior tutor who was secretly instructed by Douglas said honestly and tremblingly.

"Tear up!"

With a slight pull of his palm in the void, a pitch-black portal appeared.

As soon as she put half of her body into the portal, Elizabeth stepped back and pressed her temple and said, "No! Calm, calm, must be calm! No matter how much Cicero is a bastard, he can't kick him out of the academy! Send me word to Cicero, and you will say, ......"

"Say what?" The honest junior tutor asked.

"Come here, I'll tell you what to say!"

So, the poor mentor leaned his ear to it.

……

Daisetsuzan Mountain.

"Holy!" Cicero's eyes were on fire, and he was almost furious: "Did she really say that? ”

"Yes, yes." The junior tutor said only resignedly.

"Shit, this damn slut!" Cicero scolded: "If I don't take Lin Yang in, she will come to destroy my lair?" How can there be such a cheap woman? She is a soft persimmon that I am kneading? You go back and tell her that you want me to take Lin Yang, it's okay! But this time she's going to roll up the mountain, remember, it's rolling, not climbing! ”

"Yes." The junior tutor nodded and walked down the mountain, still muttering, "I've only heard of rolling down the mountain, but I don't seem to have heard the saying of rolling down the mountain?" ”

……

And so, the dramatic scene began,

Between the legendary dean and the totem mentor Cicero, a cold war broke out without gunpowder.

And this poor junior tutor became the transmitter of this cold war, running back and forth between the academy and the snowy mountains. By the time our junior tutor suddenly woke up and fell for Douglas, the old fox, it was too late, and Douglas had already prepared another mentor to carry the blame and scapegoat for him.

On this day, the devil knows how many tutors were tired of running between the academy and the snowy mountain.

And the person concerned, Lin Yang, was still reading in his own room, leisurely, unaware.
