Chapter Seventy-Seven: The First Reincarnation
When Hao Yun was still lamenting that the class was boring, Ah Guang and the director also came to an academy.
Compared with the poor and shabby centralized training of institutional business, the Royal Steering Academy of Orudatin can be described as magnificent.
The entire college covers a huge area, with semi-curved domes in the Byzantine style, paved with dark green bricks. A variant of the Eric column of marble supported underneath. The gables on both sides cleverly hide the ribs that support the dome.
Different from the classical buildings of the Blank Universe, the tall and gorgeous main teaching building has a huge guiding crystal on the front, on which the honors and news of the academy are broadcast from time to time.
"We warmly congratulate Professor Fersen that his occult analytic equation has been approved by the Academic Council, which will be a major breakthrough in the theory of conductive technology."
When Ah Guang paid attention to the screen, he happened to swipe through such a short message, and a gray-haired old man on the screen stared into the distance with deep eyes.
Perhaps using a completely different principle from mechanical technology, these images are all three-dimensional, but the clarity is very low.
The place where Ah Guang appeared with the director was in the large square in front of the main teaching building of Orudadin, surrounded by neat lawns and gardens except for a huge fountain. Students in twos and threes, wearing the uniforms of the guiding students, shuttled through the paths in the square garden. Occasionally, one or two flew crookedly in the sky, showing that this place was different from the university on Earth.
It's class time, and the sudden appearance of a man and a cat didn't cause much of a stir. Moreover, as the center of the world's guidance technology in the Karji world, there are many strange guidance experiments in the Orudatin Academy, and the short-distance teleportation is not such an incredible guidance array.
"I can be sure that the problem is roughly occurring in this college, but I can't pinpoint it more specifically."
To be on the safe side, the orange cat raised his paws and read, "The years are prosperous and withered." ”
There was another wave of mighty power, and the structure of the world had changed incredibly once again.
"From now until five minutes before the destruction of the world, I locked this academy into this time frame and kept looping. However, if you get too close to the point of destruction, it is easy to be pulled in, and I can only take one between you and Xiaohu. ”
Xiaohu put down his paw and nodded at Ah Guang, "If it really doesn't work, you go back first, and I will erase all possibilities of this academy at the origin of this world." ”
"Well, that's all you need to pay attention to." After setting up the stage, Meow's vertical pupils stared at his subordinate, "Next is your performance, won't you disappoint me, will you?" ”
"Of course." Ah Guang smiled a little self-deprecatingly, he hadn't heard anyone call him that for a long time, and he replied, "But it's better to find out what really happened to Calji, destruction often buries crises rather than eliminates them." ”
"That's what I said." Xiaohu scratched his belly, "The work should also be divided into priorities, this time the matter is forcibly apportioned from above, we can get by on the face, there is no need to worry too much." ”
"Also, Director, you only have three chances to reincarnate in your years, right?" Ah Guang asked very seriously.
Xiaohu looked at him deeply.
"Yes, you only have three chances to reincarnate, hurry up."
~~~~~~~~~~
"Excuse me."
A man and a cat were discussing work, and a nice female voice interjected next to them, "Are you talking to a cat?" ”
Ah Guang turned around and saw a girl looking at him curiously, as well as the cat on his shoulder.
This is a girl with waist-length blond hair, long flowing hair and looking particularly energetic. Her little face was ruddy, and she was wearing the uniform of a girl from the Royal Steering Academy in Orudatin, and the embroidery on her chest read the words "Alchemy Department", because her breasts were oversized, so these three words were highlighted fiercely.
Like all alchemists, she had many pockets sewn on her waist and skirt for small objects. There are obvious signs of potion corrosion on the uniform, and it seems that he is a very reckless apprentice.
Ah Guang raised his hat: "Miss, good day~"
"Mr. Good Day." The alchemy apprentice was still very curious, "Can your cat talk?" I've only heard of witches' cats talking. ”
"Oh yes, my name is Emma, a second-year apprentice in alchemy, please advise sir." Emma bowed to Ah Guang.
"My name is Ah Guang." Ah Guang politely returned the salute, and then put the reluctant little tiger into the girl's hand, "You can ask if it can speak." ”
Emma grinned and took the cat.
"Cat, tell me if you're a boy or a girl."
Meow~
Xiaohu kicked his legs away from the girl's arms and walked around the ground impatiently.
"Looks like it doesn't like me." Emma sighed regretfully.
"It doesn't like me either, because I always use it to make alchemical potions."
"Wow sir, are you using a cat's whiskers for an agility potion? Then it will really hate you. ”
"No, it's not. I've made a unique invisibility potion. Ah Guang saw the alchemy apprentice looking at him expectantly, and deliberately showed a businessman-like smirk, "Want to know? ”
Emma nodded sharply.
"The recipe is, the roots of the mountains, the shadow of the elm tree, plus the footsteps of a 21-gram cat." Ah Guang pretended to be a profound trickster girl.
"Oh, you lied to me, how could there be such a formula."
"Seeing is believing~" Ah Guang magically took out a small bottle containing a crystal liquid, "Do you want to try it." ”
"Heh, you're as easy to deceive as a child, maybe it's a potion with a strange effect." Emma pretended to be angry, but still put the potion handed over by Ah Guang into her pocket, "But for the safety of the girls, I will confiscate such a suspicious potion!" ”
No alchemist would give up the opportunity to research a novelty potion, and the apprentice was no exception.
"I'll send you, and I'll do it at your disposal."
"So, Mr. Ah Guang is not Orudatin's teacher, is he here to buy guiding props?"
"Ah, I'm here to visit Professor Ferson." Ah Guang looked adoring, "I was impressed by his theory. ”
"Haha, Professor Fersen isn't a good talker." The alchemy apprentice kindly admonished, "Do you need me to lead the way?" ”
"Thank you very much."
Emma led Ah Guang with ease, and at this time, Xiaohu jumped on Ah Guang's shoulder again. They walked through the giant hall on the first floor, through the winding second-floor viewing corridor, and by the guided elevator to the top floor. After walking through another deep hallway, Emma stopped at a door at the end.
"That's all I can do to take you here." Emma whispered, "Professor Fersen likes to be quiet, and I'm glad to serve you, Mr. Aguang, goodbye." ”
Ah Guang watched the girl's figure disappear around the corner of the corridor, and then turned around.
It is a half-hidden office door, and the surface is decorated with a large amount of ornate velvet. Sound insulation is one reason, and the bigger reason may be related to the nouveau riche taste of the owner.
Ah Guang rang the doorbell.
"Come in". After a moment, an old voice answered inside.
Ah Guang carefully pushed open the door, and what caught his eye was a bookshelf about five meters long. The floor is covered with a thick red carpet, and the walls on either side are decorated with several unknown paintings in brocade.
He had walked such a short distance, and only after turning a corner did he see the owner of the room. It turns out that there is also a small ensuite in this office.
Professor Ferson had a gray beard and was in his eighties. Unlike the profound scholar image on the guide screen, he looks like a particularly bitter old man.
He was comfortably half-lying on the sofa in the suite, with a pot of hookah and a plate of fruit on the coffee table in front of the sofa. There were two brass pipe mouthpieces stuck in the hookah, and Professor Fersen held one of them to swallow the clouds.
Surprisingly, there was another person in the suite.
A middle-aged man dressed as a handyman was half-kneeling by the wall, and a heavy guiding force kit was placed at his feet. He was inspecting a diversion facility embedded in the wall.
"Professor Ferson." The handyman said worriedly, "Your energy pipeline really needs to be replaced, and it is very old." ”
"Then change it tomorrow, go out, don't you see the guests?" Professor Ferson shouted.
The handyman reluctantly closed the equipment box, and then walked out with his heavy tool bag.
"It's a very unique scent." Ah Guang took a deep breath and carefully discerned the smell of shisha in the air.
Professor Ferson stared at the young man in front of him with brown yellow eyes, polite and extraordinary. Although I can't see the coat of arms on my clothes, I think there is such a young man, and I think the family is not unknown.
Except that the cat on the shoulder is a bit rude, but then again, what is a great nobleman, isn't it because they have the privilege of being rude, let alone the innocuous aspect of carrying pets.
"Extraordinary young man, your name?" Professor Fersen restrained his bad temper a little, and gave Ah Guang a rare look of approval.
"Ah Guang."
The professor nodded, "You may be seated." Also, let your cat be honest and don't run around. ”
"Then young man, what do you have to do?"
"Professor Ferson, I have had the pleasure of learning about your paper, which is the greatest discovery in the world, on the analytic equations of the occult. That's why I've come to visit you today to express my admiration. ”
Ah Guang put Xiaohu on the carpet and began to compliment. His gaze was so clear, and his reverence was palpable.
Professor Fersen was evidently pleased with the young man's compliment, and he half-squinted his eyes and took a deep puff of shisha.
"Do you want two mouthfuls? There are tubes underneath the coffee table. The old professor was even willing to share his hobbies with Ah Guang.
"Nope." Ah Guang smiled and refused, "I smoke and cough easily." ”
"Young people, know how to enjoy life."
"Dear Professor Fersen, how did you discover this theory, it's just amazing."
"This is the product of the accumulation of wisdom, young man, do not think that genius is just a flash of inspiration." Professor Ferson pointed to his head, and his tone became a little arrogant,
"I know that young people like you are always thinking about one step to the sky, thinking that you can change the world with some genius ideas. Any great theory is the accumulation of inconspicuous little things, do not believe in the myth that an apple can smash a genius theory. ”
Ah Guang caught Professor Ferson talking loudly and fiddling with the cigarette holder of the hookah. This is a small gesture that is not very confident, so Ah Guang decided to give it a small test.
"Professor, what you're saying is just that!" He said, "Those gossips are just the jealousy and secret slander of those villains, please don't go to your heart, there will always be such people, who are penniless, but they can't see others as excellent." ”
Professor Feisen's eyes narrowed again, and he shifted to a more comfortable position leaning deeper on the couch.
"Not really, Calvin's bastard... Sorry young man, please forgive me for using vulgar language to describe such a shameless liar. ”
"Of course." Ah Guang smiled and punned, "You have a valid reason for being angry. ”
"I have been engaged in the study of the occult theory of conductivity for more than 40 years, from the very beginning of the definition of energy substitution, the mysterious nonlinear logic, to the final operation equation, it can be said that step by step. Calvin, the sick man who has been developing highly sensitive detectors in the Department of Guided Engineering, is a shameless plagiarist......"
"Exactly."
Ah Guang listened quietly to the professor's talk. Professor Fersen talks about his research trajectory, his snarky ridicule of his peers, and his profound curse against Professor Calvin.
Of course, he did not forget to praise the young nobleman who made him feel good about him. Ah Guang nodded implicitly in thanks for these beautiful words.
As the minutes ticked by, the professor's voice grew weaker and weaker, and finally he fell asleep on the comfortable sofa.
Ah Guang pursed his lips and asked, "How long is there?" ”
Xiaohu jumped on the coffee table and nodded his head.
"Almost, let's stop here for the first time."
"Okay."
The image of the low-key and luxurious office in front of him is as shattered as an illusion in the mirror, and on an unknown time scale, Ah Guang and Xiaohu retreat rapidly. When the world stabilized, they once again stood in front of the main entrance square of Oludadine College.
