Chapter 108: Tulip Apartment
Since the original nano armor entered the daily recommendation, because it couldn't be refreshed, for Su Wen, even this rare function that could interact with the system was useless. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
And for the next week or so, Su Wen turned on the silent state switch that the system gave him, so the guy who made him hate so much in Tridis just disappeared, so quiet that it seemed to not exist at all. If it weren't for the fact that the status panel was still functioning, Su Wen might have thought it was useless.
This is a far cry from when he was in Tridis, but Su Wen knows in his heart that as long as there is a breath left, it will exist silently in his mind, observing his every thought and behavior, and as for Su Wen, he is not even clear about the other party's ultimate purpose. Even if the status of the two is superficially equal, in reality, it is still the latter who has the initiative.
Now, for example, the sound of the system is calm, peaceful, and emotionless, as if it perceives everything.
"You don't seem to want to interfere with me. ”
In this regard, Su Wen asked silently.
"That's right, in the second stage, unless the host is in danger of life, I will make a survival recommendation for the host, otherwise all the host's actions are free behavior. ”
"All acts?"
"Yes. ”
"So is there a third phase?"
The system was silent for a moment, then gave a formulaic answer: "The question is out of authority, I can't say." ”
"Very good, then ......" Su Wen seemed to find some blind spot, and said slowly, "If I choose not to pay the debt, will you intervene after the deadline?" I think this behavior should belong to what you call 'all actions'. ”
"It will not intervene, because it cannot be paid off after the time has passed, and it is natural to be deprived of the effect of resurrection coins. ”
Su Wen sighed: "What a good answer." ”
There was no response from the system.
But even so, Su Wen's expression was still relaxed.
In a recent conversation with Ptolemy, he realized that he was wrong with the system - he wanted to derive the optimal profit plan from the conditions given by the system, and on the surface it seemed that he had gained some initiative, but in fact, his dependence on the system was still close to 100%. Because he can't get out of the circle of the "military industrial system" after all, and if he wants to achieve differences from the glorious continent in this regard, and use it to benefit, he must take advantage of the convenience brought by the system and accept exploitation at the same time. In other words, his dependence on the system has only changed from a form of total domination to a form of partial initiative, and there is no change in essence.
Suven believes that this is the result that the system is willing to see.
Fortunately, Su Wen didn't realize this until now, in fact, on the way to visit Ironforge Fort, he focused on military items that could be transplanted to the Brilliant Continent, such as mechanical weapons based on goblin firearms, industrial materials that can overcome the technological black box in the continent, and various tactical props that favor design methods and concepts...... But this consideration is mostly in the idea of maximizing profits, although he also has the mentality that he can't sit and eat the system, but it wasn't until he was woken up by the words of the Ptolemaic Grand Magician that he almost broke out in a cold sweat, and he felt very lucky.
At the same time, Su Wen's thoughts changed again, and it was a change in his root thoughts.
If you want to get gold coins, you don't necessarily have to go through the help of the system, and the greater the value of the exchange points given by the system, the higher your dependence on the system. However, for a long time before this, Su Wen had equated the common value of gold coins with exchange points, and now he thinks that this is a stupid idea.
But that doesn't mean the system is worthless, and Su Wen won't deny its existence, because even though there may be some hidden secret behind it, it can definitely bring him a unique resource. It's just that, in the eyes of Su Wen today, the exchange point is no longer a currency, and the system itself has just become a tool, and what is thinking around it like the previous month may never happen again.
In particular, Su Wen's body is now burdened with the "subject" of the Ptolemy Grand Magister, which means that he has a direction. He no longer has to rely on systematic guidance to be able to stagger forward due to the lack of cognition and sense of direction, as he did in Tridis, which leads to the direct brushing out of the honorary title of "Shame of Tridis".
Maybe looking back in a few years, that time will really become a black history that cannot be looked back on......
No, it already is.
Although there is a systematic guarantee, that is, when Su Wen turns off the contact switch, it will not read the mind, but in Su Wen's eyes, the credibility of this guarantee should be regarded as zero in any case, so when making a judgment, it should be assumed that the system has learned all the information. All in all, Su Wen did not intend to be able to conceal the above thoughts, and he may not believe that he also promised not to interfere.
But this doesn't really matter, as long as the system needs to depend on itself, this parasitic relationship will not change, then you will have room to move forward, as for where the bottom line of the system is, you can always test it.
Fair?
Su Wen didn't want it.
His mistake is to put himself and the system in an equal position, but in fact, it is not that he can't live without the system, but if the system leaves him, there is no meaning in existence.
The so-called golden finger is born to be the tool of the owner, and if this causal relationship does not exist, Su Wen doesn't mind using his own hands to get more. And if you can't get it, then you might as well try what Su Wen said at the end of the first stage, either lose the poisonous golden finger, or you can't even do this bottom line, then abandon the pit with the golden finger.
To put it bluntly, it's actually as simple as that. Su Wen couldn't help but feel that Donald was right when he was in the underground cave, he was really too sweet, not only easy to be satisfied, but also easy to make simple Taoist ideals complicated.
Originally, he called out the system to let him know about this situation, but when he thought about it carefully, it didn't seem necessary, so Su Wen didn't pay attention to it anymore.
......
Sending Suvin outside the house, Ptolemy didn't seem to have any intention of keeping him.
"Carlito. ”
With just a look in his eyes and a gentle call, the short magician on standby walked over briskly and performed a set of mage rituals with great rigour.
Ptolemy returned the salute, and then coughed softly and said: "Take Su Wen to familiarize yourself with the environment of the academy, his residence is temporarily arranged in Building 11, 8th Street, Tulip Apartment, you must get along well in the future." ”
"Your decision is my command, Mentor. ”
At this time, Grandma Vera from the small garden also came back with Laetitia, the latter's face was flushed, as if something terrible had been discussed not long ago, she stood silently beside Su Wen, bowed her head and said nothing.
Although it was a little strange what the two men had discussed, Suven certainly did not ask immediately, and said goodbye to Ptolemy and Vera again, and the three of them left the house that was located on the shore of the lake and among the green grass.
The next step is to go to the accommodation, even if St. Peter's College is attractive, this problem must be solved first.
Carlito didn't use the magic flying boat again, although Su Wen mentioned the tragic situation of the second floor of the flying boat being destroyed by Alex with some concern, but he just smiled and said that he didn't care, so the two sat side by side in the spacious seats at the front of the carriage, the extremely disparity in height and size made them look like father and son. And as the carriage slowly moved, Laetitia, who was sitting in the carriage, couldn't help but hold her face in her hands, as if she was thinking about something.
Su Wen was even more curious......
Could it be that like Xiwena that time, this maid was inexplicably brainwashed again?
Archmage Ptolemy's residence was located in the depths of St. Peter's College, and due to the unique way of coming here, Suvin had not been able to figure out the east, west, north and south until now. In terms of time, there are about 20 days left before the exams in early August, and Tuscany City is basically overcrowded at this time, but in Tuscany's "city within a city" St. Peter's College, it seems that it has not been affected, but because it is in the holiday stage, most of the students have left the school, and the road looks deserted.
Fortunately, along the way, Carlito acted well as a tour guide. Although he was extremely short, he was almost elegant and well-behaved, and there was no fault in his chatter with Su Wen, and in the midst of his chatter with Su Wen, the carriage passed through a large area of the Wizard Academy dormitory, and then crossed a wide and long boulevard into a large apartment complex built at the foot of the hillside.
“...... This is Tulip Apartments, which are huge, at least much bigger than what we see, with 11 streets and 128 small apartments. "Tulip is a special residence for the pro-students of the various wizard factions, because we always have to spend more time on magical research, and it is sometimes not suitable to live in a group apartment like an ordinary student, and this is almost the quietest place in the college, far away from the other teaching and living areas, which is very suitable for research and rest, which is one of the preferential treatment given to us by St. Peter's College." ”
After saying that, Carlito then added: "Of course, there will also be a room for you in the dormitory, and when the school starts, you can choose to move in there, depending on your preference." ”
Su Wenyao looked at this beautiful complex of buildings and found that the so-called small apartments were actually about the same size as villas, both the streets and the buildings were extremely clean, and the flower beds and gardening forests beside the road were also neatly trimmed, apparently often taken care of. The apartment was full of signs of life, but after all, it was a holiday, and the street at the entrance was rarely bustled, except for two girls in magic robes hurrying by, whispering something, and other than that, there was a lot of silence everywhere.
Nice place, at least on the surface.
The carriage crossed two streets, then turned a corner and stopped after traveling 100 meters.
This is the end of one road, and the other end is directly opposite the second entrance and exit of the Tulip Apartment complex, which is obviously much more secluded than when you came, because the small apartments are empty.
In this large pile of empty apartments, Su Wen noticed that one of the buildings had been occupied, and there were several clothes that looked like girls hanging inside, looking small and cute. However, this building is three stories high, and there are as many as nine balconies on one side, only this one room is occupied, and the other eight balconies are empty, only after a simple renovation, and there is not even any furniture in it.
The most important thing is that this apartment, and the apartment next to Su Wen's carriage, are exactly one on the left and one on the right, with house numbers 10 and 11 respectively.
"Junior Brother Su Wen, the right to use this apartment in the future will be yours until you graduate from St. Peter's College. Carlito jumped out of the carriage and pointed to the unoccupied apartment on the right, and said to Suwen.
"The whole building?"
Su Wen was stunned, he thought that he was only staying in one or two rooms in the apartment building.
"Of course, by the time they reach the senior year, most of the magicians will have more followers and attendants, and many of them will complain that one apartment is not enough. After saying that, Carlito didn't seem to have any intention of staying for long, "My residence is in Building 5 on 3rd Street, so if you are in trouble, just come to me." The apartment has a simple decoration and has most of the materials you need, such as the most basic admission booklet, but you still have to take care of your own groceries, so you may have to keep busy. So, if nothing happens, I'll go back to my life. ”
"Okay, thank you, Brother Kalito. ”
Su Wen glanced at the clothes hanging on the balcony of the apartment next to him, and always felt a little familiar, as if he wanted to ask Carlito about the situation, but after thinking about it carefully, he still didn't say anything. (To be continued.) )
