In the square, in the midst of the silent group of teachers, Maxwell wore a top hat and quietly watched the students in front of him.

"It's all a group of children, it's really youthful. ”

He chuckled softly, "Every time I see them, I feel: Times have changed, and it may not be a good thing." ”

Sidney looked at him in confusion, but he whistled triumphantly: "At the very least, the little ghost is really much happier now."

When I was at that time, where could I see so many long-legged girls in short skirts and stockings?

Everyone attends classes in the church school, and the men are to be gentlemanly, and the girls are covered with only one face, and they are all taught by God, and they live like old mothers......"

"Ahem. ”

Sidney coughed under his breath, glanced quietly at the girl standing quietly not far away, and motioned for him to stop.

This old bastard, don't talk bad things about the occasion - don't sing praises and praise virtues, at least don't play hooligan in public, okay?

This time, the second princess came to inspect on behalf of the empress, and deducted a hat of 'disgrace in front of the king', you are fine, don't let us be hung on the wall with you!

Outside the crowd, the girl stood in the early morning mist, as if she hadn't heard anything, just staring around, cold and quiet.

After a long time, she bowed her head and looked at Maxwell, "Mr. Headmaster, the time is almost up, right?"

"His Royal Highness Lao has been waiting for a long time. ”

Maxwell took off his top hat and threw it into Sidney's arms: "Then let's get started."

It's better to have a lively day. It's always so cold, what does it look like?"

Syllable!

His fingers flexed, knuckles rubbing, making a sound, a crisp snap of his fingers.

Behind him. In the cold and wet mist of the early morning, a loud echo suddenly came. It's not harsh, but it's shocking.

Bell!

The bell rang.

Above the academy's bell tower, huge gears turned suddenly, driving iron discs and hinges, and levers rubbing. The machine twisted, and the huge bronze bell shook suddenly.

The bell rang, the mist stirred, and the students looked around blankly.

The bell shook again, and the wind fell from the sky, turning into vague ripples that spread in all directions.

The bell shook three times, and a thick white mist suddenly emerged out of thin air, covering everyone's eyes. Engulfed the entire academy.

In the thrilling sound of the bells, a faint melody emerges, the soft chanting of the clarinet.

The sound of the melody is incomparably soft, as beautiful as a dream, with a sound sleep, gently embracing everyone.

In an instant, everyone fell into a long trance, captured by this sweet melody.

Maxwell waved. The dense fog instantly dissolves and fluctuates. Like the tides.

He was immersed in a beautiful melody, swaying notes, and making waves in the sea of aether.

He closed his eyes and whispered:

"O God, please grant eternal rest in this world,"

That was hundreds of years ago. The music inscribed here by Mozart, the Yellow King, is deeply imprinted in the ether and becomes an enchantment that haunts the entire academy.

Requiem!

Among the teachers, all of them were overwhelmed by that majestic force. Sidney clutched his hat and staggered back. Pale:

"Before we start, the school committee will have a speech and a lecture session......

"Didn't you already talk about it yesterday?"

Maxwell's laughter came from afar, "You are all poor people of heart and empty words, where is there so much to say to others?"

Sidney's face changed, and he was about to say something, but he found himself speechless. He even felt like he had forgotten his words and didn't know how to speak anymore.

Requiem enchantment activated, eternal sleep, where is the need for such a noisy sound?-

In the mist, all the students looked around blankly, watching as the fog covered everything, and everything changed like a mirage.

Everything becomes illusory and distant.

Even the people around him gradually faded and disappeared.

At first, some people were at a loss for what to do, but soon, they heard a voice.

"Thirty minutes. ”

Maxwell's deep voice came from their ears, "The academy has changed, and you still have thirty minutes to find your place.

Thirty minutes later, the trial began......"

In front of them, the white mist dissipated, revealing that there was still a huge academy that had been vaguely visible.

The graduates, who couldn't see each other, were stunned, and soon, they strode towards the original direction of the investigation, and hurried to start changing their mimics.

-- The trial is about to begin! --

Ye Qingxuan only remembered that the white mist was coming, and he was stunned for a moment, but when he reacted, the mist quickly dissipated.

All was silent again.

He had been thrown into a strange place at some point, and the people around him were gone. It seems that he was thrown elsewhere by the Requiem Enchantment.

As far as the eye can see, all the scenery becomes unfamiliar.

It still looks like it's in the academy, but everything has changed subtly. Some buildings are missing, and in some places there is an additional building.

Even the shape and appearance of the building have changed, and although the general pattern is still familiar, it is no longer possible to distinguish the original pattern.

The power of the Requiem shines directly from the etheric realm into the material world, changing the way everything looks.

Become silent.

As far as the eye can see, there are faintly students who have participated in the assessment in the distance, and they are seizing the time to start looking for graduates who have completed the mimicry.

I think my brother has already found a good place, right?

If nothing goes wrong, according to the plan of the two of them last night, it shouldn't be too much of a problem to survive this round......

As long as it's not unlucky.

"Cousin......"

Bai Xi shook his head vigorously: "Can you put my hair down?"

"Uh, sorry I didn't notice. ”

He quickly loosened the hair from his hand. When the white mist was filled, he subconsciously grabbed Bai Xi, and then lost his mind, until now.

"Is this a requiem?"

Different from Ye Qingxuan's caution, Bai Xi is much bolder. Poke and poke around. To the end of the nod:

"Well, it's similar to the effect of "Cloud Gate". It's that the subtleties are a little different, one is delicate and meticulous, and the other is magnificent...... It's all the realm of the 'embodiment' of the Illusion faction. ”

"Be serious, Bai Xi, the trial has begun. ”

Ye Qingxuan pulled her up from a wild flower: "Don't step on it, maybe the flower you stepped on is a big man with five big and three thick." ”

"Huh, it's disgusting. ”

Bai Xi got up in disgust. Looking back at him with some disbelief: "Why don't I take a picture?"

As she spoke, she took out the school emblem and was about to spend ten credits to identify it, but was stopped by Ye Qingxuan: "This is not a mimicry, don't waste credits." ”

After listening to him, Bai Xi was relieved to crush the wildflower to death.

...... It can only be said that her bear child's temper has not changed.

It's just that what Ye Qingxuan is worried about now is the drastic increase in the difficulty of the trial.

Originally, there was no way to become something smaller than oneself, but in the scope of the Requiem enchantment, the musician's mimicry can cover up the original form. Then project something in place of yourself.

This leads to a dramatic spike in difficulty.

Although after the opening three hours, there will be a round of changes. All graduates will be drawn by lot, and the content of the lottery will make it mandatory for the students to mimic the image this time.

But that's for later, after all.

If everything is planned according to the worst outcome, then Ye Qingxuan must find a way to make up enough points before the difficulty is reduced.

Not only his own, but also Bai Xi and Charles's share, at least don't let the comprehensive credits of the music history department in the end be too bad.

Otherwise, the school committee will probably have to give them small shoes again.

"Hurry up and start looking for someone first. ”

Ye Qingxuan sighed in a low voice, "I hope I have time to go back to the big library once in the afternoon." ”

"Go and read the book that woman gave you?"

Bai Xi glanced at him. Looking elsewhere, he just whispered, "The teacher has been very sad for the past two days." ”

“......”

Ye Qingxuan knocked on her head angrily: "Don't talk nonsense." I've already said that, teacher.

Anyway, I only go over occasionally to listen to the class, so the teacher will not have an opinion. ”

"Cut. ”

The lie was exposed, Bai Xi looked unhappy, and just muttered: "I see that sooner or later you will be toyed with by that woman to the point of being completely skinny, and then abandoned miserably." ”

"Teacher Lola and I are innocent. ”

"Then how did you hook up with her?" Bai Xi rolled his eyes and kicked him, Ye Qingxuan was speechless for a moment. After a long time, I could only say: "Actually, it's just an academic exchange." ”

He couldn't say, "Eh, do you remember the professor?" yes, the one who was very dangerous. The professor is actually a woman, and a student of my father, and he is so good to me now that he doesn't want to......

This one is obviously more outrageous, and it is also even more unspeakable.

He sighed, "You just think of it as a match." ”

Bai Xi's eyes changed, and he no longer looked at him.

The little girl just walked ahead with her head bowed and whispered something.

"Liars ......"

A faint voice came from the wind, Ye Qingxuan was stunned for a moment, and wanted to grab her, but she threw her away.

"Bai Xi?" he frowned and whispered, "Don't make trouble, let's go back and say no?"

"No need. ”

Bai Xi shook his head and didn't look at him, "Anyway, there's nothing to say." Let's take it. ”

Ye Qingxuan's original words about this matter were now thrown back, and Ye Qingxuan only felt a little irritable: "Bai Xi, what kind of temper are you making, can you just say no?"

"Am I having a temper?"

Bai Xi looked back at him with an expressionless face: "I just don't want to hear you lie." ”

"I ......"

"It's okay if you just say you like her or you have to ask her to do some favors. It's okay to even say nothing. ”

Bai Xi seemed to be talking to himself, "I don't care who you're with, right?"

"......" Ye Qingxuan was speechless.

"I just don't want to see you lie. ”

She took one last look at Ye Qingxuan, and her eyes were a little red:

"--Cousin, even you tried to lie to me. ”

She turned around and strode away, running away without looking back.

The hairband that tied his hair snapped and fell to the ground. Her hair floated up like a glitter of beauty in the wind.

The flash disappeared.

Bai Xi also disappeared.

Ye Qingxuan stood in place, wanting to catch up, but he felt a little tired, and he didn't even have the strength to take a step.

He didn't even have time to say sorry-

The boy sat down wearily on the stone bench in the corner and picked up the headband on the ground. Looking at the crack on it, and the two short hairs, he showed a self-deprecating wry smile.

What is this? self-inflicted, self-inflicted, self-inflicted, or some strange shame?

Only now did he realize that he had made a mistake.

It's been a long time, and Bai Xi hasn't lost his temper again. My cousin said she wanted to drink water, so she went to boil water, and when my cousin didn't have time, she went to walk the dog. If my cousin stays up late, she reads some comic books next to her.

Quietly. It's really like a well-behaved little girl.

Originally, he thought that the little girl was just to coax, just coax more, and there would be nothing to do. She'll be obedient after coaxing, right?

Then reality slapped him in the face.

No kidding, Ye Qingxuan.

How could you bind her with something like a lie?

She just doesn't want to ignore you, and she doesn't want to get angry with you and put up with your lies. But now lies are useless. It's like the headband you tied up in her hair is broken.

She's fed up and doesn't want to listen to your lies. chose to flee.

What can you do?

You can't even catch up with him—

For a long time, Ye Qingxuan sat on the stone bench, motionless, looking at the hairband in his hand in frustration.

There were faint shouts and excited shouts in the distance. It was the noise of the students who participated in the trial.

But this small courtyard was silent, as if it were another world.

The silence seems to have forgotten time.

It wasn't until a long time later that a painful voice came.

"This classmate ......"

The voice was full of helplessness. Whispered, "This classmate?"

Finally, Ye Qingxuan looked underneath him, and then saw the stone bench under his buttocks.

"This classmate, can you move it?"

The long stone bench made an untenable painful voice: "You sit on my waist." ”

“...... I'm sorry. ”

Ye Qingxuan moved to the side, "I'm just sad." Didn't pay attention. ”

The stone bench was speechless for a moment, generally speaking, shouldn't you bastard get up first and be talking? Why are you still sitting!

But in the end, there was still no choice but to let him sit, but he didn't report himself. I can't say that you get up quickly, and you have the ability to take the school emblem to shine on me!

That is to die of oneself......

The stone bench looked at his sad appearance, was silent for a long time, and couldn't help sighing:

"Don't be sad, everyone was like this when they were young, and they often did things that they regretted. ”

"Will it not be in the future?" Ye Qingxuan asked.

"In the future?" the stone bench's voice became bitter, "in the future you will get used to it." ”

Ye Qingxuan scratched his head, "It only sounds like it's going to get worse and worse." ”

"There's no way, this world is like this, there are so many misunderstandings, but there are very few people who can accompany you. ”

Shi Bench sighed: "That's why you need to cherish it, if you don't hold her, she will run away."

Then, if you're left alone, she'll be a person. ”

Ye Qingxuan was silent.

"Go chase her back. The stone bench whispered, "She must be waiting for you to comfort her." ”

"Yes. ”

Ye Qingxuan got up and glanced back at him, "I originally planned to sit for a while, but thank you for enlightening me, I won't poke you." ”

“......”

The voice of the stone bench was stunned: "Did you originally find me?"

"The flaw is too big, and I can see through it at a glance. ”

Ye Qingxuan shook his head, "Recently, the weather has been humid, and bugs and various strains have grown wildly.

But you don't even have a moss or cobwebs here. It doesn't feel right to think about it with the back of your head. ”

"I didn't expect ......"

The tone of the stone bench was complicated, and the mood was also complicated.

He originally thought that Ye Qingxuan was just sad and sat on him by mistake.

As a result, this guy was in a bad mood and deliberately tossed himself to play? This made him suddenly feel sad that he was eaten by the golden retriever vicious dog in the academy.

"So, goodbye, Brother Stool. ”

Ye Qingxuan left, waving his hand without looking back: "I wish you a smooth passage through this round." ”

“...... Good bye. ”

The stone bench said goodbye weakly, and after a long time, sighed softly, "I wish you can find your girl." ”――

It was noon, and the sun was scorching.

The students, who had been full of energy at first, were now tired and some were already squatting under the shade of the trees and panting.

So many people are in the college of Nuo University, and they have become inconspicuous. Compared to so many people who search, there are not many graduates who have been found so far.

The most tragic thing in the world is that wolves have more meat and less meat, not to mention ...... Meat also runs.

In fact, Ye Qingxuan has seen more than once that 'a tree is desperately running in front, and a bunch of people behind are holding the school emblem and taking random photos'.

The ghosts cried and howled all the way, which was unbearable.

There was a warning from the students, the credits were cleared, and they were kicked out of the field. After screening out a group of graduates who didn't pass the test at the beginning, the rest of the people have begun to kill rats blindly, trying to find the fish that slipped through the net from the flowers and plants around them.

Not to mention, someone was really found by them.

Thus, the people's desire to die was thus aroused!

In such a chaotic situation, you can't use any skills and plans, and everyone can only fight for luck.

Originally, Ye Qingxuan was still worried about Charles, but after checking various places according to the plan, and finally finding him, he was not worried at all.

Merely......

"Senior brother, you've become this thing, a little bit. ”

Under the scorching sun, on the empty square, Ye Qingxuan blocked the sunlight above his head and looked up at the fountain in front of him.

Look at the naked sculpture on the fountain......

On that well-proportioned body, perfectly in line with the golden ratio, the angular and lifelike face stared sideways at the sky, and the eyes were persistent and powerful, and at a glance it was clear that it was the work of a master, making people feel as if they had returned to the early days of the Golden Age.

At that time, artists advocated the combination of 'strength and beauty', which was simple and robust to express the robustness and grace of the human body.

It's just that for some reason, after looking at it for a long time, it makes people feel that the smile on the corner of the statue's mouth has a trace of indescribable obscenity...... (To be continued......)
