The Headmaster's Office is on the top floor of the School of Magic's Building No. 1, which is also the tallest building in the entire Academy of Magic, with thirteen floors. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
To tell the truth, if it weren't for the fact that there was a special elevator here, and the elevator was still completely closed, Lin would not have come up, but even if she tried not to look at the scenery outside the window next to her, Lin still felt her liver tremble.
Along the way, Yu Yao held Lin's arm, although she was silent, Lin didn't feel anything right. By the time we got to the principal's office, there was already someone waiting here.
Zhai Yong, the tutor who admitted Lin some time ago.
Zhai Yong's beard is now shaved, the bloodshot in his eyes is less, and the clothes on his body are brand new, and it looks like he doesn't need to be exposed to the wind and sun outside.
He stood here, looked at Lin with complicated eyes, and stretched out his hand to stop the group: "The dean only let you go in alone, and the others are waiting outside." β
These words were said to Lin, but the expression on Zhai Yong's face became more and more strange.
Lin nodded, and after arranging it, she pushed the door and entered the principal's room. Seeing Lin enter the principal's room, Zhai Yong breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the rest of the people: "A few of you will follow me to the conference room on the side for a while, and the dean will have something to say to you after a while." Well, especially Teacher Wang Ying, Teacher Roland, Teacher Garas, you must stay. My mom just wants to have a good talk with you, and her exact words are that if any of you leave, then this month's project fund and resource supply will be gone. β
For a while, the faces of the three teachers changed together, and finally these people still glared at Zhai Yong and walked to the conference room, Ruias squatted in the corner like a barricade, his face was solemn and he didn't say a word. Next to him, Zyra crouched on the ground with her head in her hands, her face paleβshe was also afraid of heights.
Yu Yao looked at the door of the principal's room with some worry, and did not leave but waited here, Zhai Yong glanced at her and did not speak, nor did he leave. His duty is to wait here, otherwise he will definitely have nothing to eat when he goes home tonight.
On the other side, Lin came to the principal's office for the second time in her life.
It's still in the style of simple notation, without too much decoration, and there are no kinds of strange calligraphy and paintings, or strange collections. There was nothing on the wall except a beautiful chandelier hanging from the ceiling, which emitted a bright light. But that's about it.
There wasn't even a single window in the headmaster's room, there were rows of bookshelves in all corners, and cupboards filled with piles of papers and books.
There's a lot of space, but most of it is filled with wooden bookshelves, leaving only a path for one person to walk between them.
Every shelf is filled, so you can imagine how many books there are.
Lynn just glanced at the bookshelves and withdrew his gaze, and he looked at the figure with his head down and writing and drawing on a blank piece of paper, and fell silent. He didn't bother Ailan, but he was a little glad that he was the one who almost sat here in the first place.
This is the second time Lynn has come to the principal's office, the first time was when Lynn opened a river in front of the college decades ago, and of course it should be the gate of the old campus now. That time, Lin was dragged here by the headmaster at the time, and his mouth was a huge amount of compensation. Of course Lin didn't dare, a gold coin he had worked so hard to save at that time was accidentally lost, and he couldn't even take out a copper coin, how could he pay a huge amount of compensation.
But after the stick, the old headmaster gave him a sweet date: "As long as you accept this school, I won't let you compensate, how about it?"
Then Lin went directly to the old headmaster and ran away by himself.
Lin couldn't choose these two options, the first Lin had no money, and the second Lin still had some things at the time, and it was impossible for him to find someone to stay in one place all the time. And if Lin nodded at that time, he wouldn't have met Yu Yao. There won't be this story either.
In fact, Lin didn't know, of course, it was possible to know that the old principal at that time had a third option for him, that is, to obediently admit his mistake and pass this time. However, Lin didn't think about this at all, anyway, he had already graduated at that time, and he ran away directly to the old principal.
Before he came here to study, he was a warrior, and a mage was close to a warrior, and the final result can be imagined.
When Lynn looked up at the chandelier and counted how much glass was embedded in it, Ellen Yura finally couldn't help it: "Are you here to count the glasses?"
"Almost. β
Pinching his temples, Ailan sighed helplessly: "Do you know what I came to you for?"
"I don't know. β
"That's good, then I'll ask you for help with something next. β
"I refuse. β
"You can't refuse, it's compensation for opening a river in front of the old campus - even though he's twenty-six years late!" Ellen smiled and threw the pen in his hand, grinning at the person she once liked.
There hasn't been much change from before, and the eyebrows are still so immature, but the eyes seem to be always flat, as if nothing can surprise her.
That's what attracted him to her in the first place.
The clothes on his body look new and fit well on his body, his face is clean, and yes, he doesn't grow a beard.
"It always feels like you're thinking something rude. Seeing Alan staring straight at herself, Lynn muttered a little uneasily. He didn't just turn around and leave, indicating that he was already thinking about the compensation condition that Ailan said, he pulled over a chair and sat down with a big grin.
"Are you afraid?" Ailan smiled seductively, and Lin subconsciously leaned back in her chair, "Are you afraid of me?"
Lin nodded subconsciously, and then shook his head again, he actually didn't know if he was afraid at all, he just thought about Yu Yao outside, and was inexplicably cowardly.
Ailan grinned and sat back: "Actually, you don't have to be afraid of me, I'm married and have a granddaughter." β
"What?" Lynn's face changed suddenly.
"Can't you forget me?" Ailan's eyes seemed to flash with a hint of hope, but it was well hidden in the depths of his eyes.
"No, I just think so. The old classmates of the year even have granddaughters, and it's not very pitiful that I'm still single. Lynn scratched her cheek in embarrassment.
Ailan choked for a breath, and then couldn't help but laugh. She's self-inflicted, it's always been like this, but it doesn't matter, it's all over anyway. However, she looked at Lin, and suddenly felt a little unbearable: "Actually, it's not just you, Roland and Wang Ying are still single, it's just that you have been single for a little longer than them." β
"Are you comforting?
"He played with his great-grandchildren at home some time ago. β
"(fourth tone)!"
For a moment, Lin felt that her whole life was gloomy.
"Alright, I'm going to talk to you about compensation. Ailan clapped her hands, after all, after being the principal for several years, she still has some self-control.
But Lynn didn't seem to care: "Oh, let's talk about it. β
"I heard you have a mercenary group. β
"The Lollipop Squad of Dragons and Swords!"
"Is that the name? Forget it, that's what you are. Ailan couldn't hold back and laughed, some information was already on her desk, but because of this, she laughed: "I have a mission here, I don't know if you want to go next." β
"I refuse!"
"SSS level mission. β
"I refuse. β
"There's no way you can say no because you've accepted the task. Ellen suddenly took out a crying clown mask and put it on her face.
Lin was stunned for a moment, his face suddenly became extremely cold, but he quickly eased up: "I see." β
"How's that?
"I have no reason to refuse. β
"That's good, but I can tell you quietly. This task may not be difficult at all, it is not dangerous at all, and it may be lifeless!" After putting on the mask, Ailan seemed to be a different person, her words were charming, every word was like a moan, her mouth was on Lynn's ear, and Lin felt the cold touch of the mask: "We need you, the Evil God Mark of the Academy has been stolen, so we hope you can find it, find twelve evil God Marks, I know you know what it is, we need you to find them, one by one to find them." β
"And where?" Lynn was expressionless.
"It depends on your mood, you can do whatever you want. As a reminder, legend has it that when you collect the twelve Evil God Marks, you can awaken the sleeping ancient evil god, and then the evil god will grant you a wish, any wish. With that, Ellen sat back with a grin.
"Seems interesting. Lin was still expressionless, "Where are you from? Holy See? Rui Dark Church? or what?" β
"Guess, aren't you very smart? I think you should be able to guess. Ellen got up from her chair, stretched out charmingly, and walked to the door, making a gesture to push the door.
"Wait a minute!"
"Is there something wrong? β
"You forgot to take off your mask. β
"Oh. β
......
Finally, the door to the principal's room opened, and Ailan walked out of it, she glanced at Yu Yao with an encouraging look, then glared at Zhai Yong fiercely, and then walked into the conference room, where there were three poor people waiting for her to speak.
After that, more than a minute later, Lin came out. His face was not good-looking, and his cold eyes were only slightly better when he saw Yu Yao.
"Brother, what's wrong?" Seeing this, Yu Yao walked over and hugged her brother, and then she felt that her brother's body was soft.
Lin twisted her neck stiffly with a cold face and looked at Yu Yao, and after seeing the concern on Yu Yao's face, she showed a smile that was more ugly than crying: "It's so high!"
In an instant, Yu Yao knew what was happening, and she glared at Lin: "You deserve it." β
When Lynn came out, he was thinking about things and forgot where he was now, and when he looked up after he came out, he accidentally glanced out the window, and then, his legs went limp.
Yu Yao supported Lin, and Yu on the side grabbed Lin's arm in a similar way, dangling in the air, her height was not enough.
"Gone, there's a mission. Lin glanced at Zyra, who was holding her head and squatting, and Rheas who didn't know what she was thinking, looking out the window, and Tsukias, who was squatting on top of Reas's head, staring out the window and waving her wings, pretending that she could fly, and said.
The group agreed and then stood up and left, and when everyone rushed in at the elevator door, Zhai Yong did not follow, his face was a little strange from the beginning, especially when he looked at Lin, he was always distracted, at this time he finally mustered up the courage and asked a question when the elevator door was slowly closed.
"Are you the Lynn who almost became my father?"
