Chapter 112: Jonah College
The next few days were the most lively days for Liang Ke, who spent the day having fun with Joanna and Ramboer, and returned to His Royal Highness the Prince's house at night to enjoy the delicious food. Originally www.biquge.info, Joanna wanted Liang Ke to move into her own house, but Archbishop Kai Tak Anse thought that it would damage the dignity of the royal family, and he would wait until the ceremony was over to leave so that he would not be heard.
On this afternoon, Liang Ke was holding Ramboer's little hand and strolling through the market by the "Suya River" passing through the city, admiring the leisurely canoes cruising in the river, selecting cheap ornaments sold by small vendors, when he suddenly heard shouts from behind him.
"Monsieur Aragorn!" a gray-white figure stumbled diagonally toward the embankment in the distance. Liang Ke squinted and looked at it for a while, but he didn't recognize who it was.
"Johnson-sensei! It's Johnson-sensei!" Ramboer saw the person clearly, and greeted him with the hem of his skirt. Under Ramboer's reminder, Liang Ke finally recognized this tall middle-aged man, who was Johnson, a teacher at Jonah College, who had a relationship at the foot of Mount Narondo.
After not seeing him for a year, Johnson added a few gray hairs to his sideburns, he walked quickly to Liang Ke to calm his breath a little, hurriedly greeted Ramboer, and said his intention.
After the last practice, Johnson took the students back to the imperial capital. On the morning of his return to the Academy, a impatient Johnson approached the stubborn and arrogant magicians of the Academy of Magic, boasting about his adventures in Narondo. When those mages heard that the demonic beasts he encountered had actually scared Ramboer's giant rock tiger into making a sound, they let out a chorus of boos, and Johnson deliberately boasted and exaggerated. In their cognition, the one who can make the giant rock tiger express fear is at least a demonic beast above the holy level, but it has been a long time since the mainland has heard of such a terrifying creature appearing, let alone following a young man as a demon pet, this is simply a big joke.
Seeing that no one believed his words, Johnson brought in the campus guards who were practicing with him to testify, and the testimony of these people made the magicians collectively silent. Johnson was smug and told them in detail about the physical appearance and skills of the demonic beast, and the mages looked at each other, and then guessed the type of powerful demonic beast in a chaotic manner. Some people say that it is a giant wolf, but it can be directly rejected by others, if a giant wolf can frighten a giant rock tiger, then the chicken is not afraid of the fox chasing. Some people also speculated that it might be a mutant variety of the wolf owl, but after speculation, it is not true, the wolf owl has wings, and the size is far from that large, and it does not breathe lava. For a while, there were different opinions, but there was no conclusion that everyone agreed.
Johnson's story soon spread throughout the Academy of Magic, and even throughout Jonah Academy, where Aragorn and his unknown pet were quickly forgotten until his name made headlines in the tabloids. Early this morning, the magicians approached Johnson and asked him to come to Jonah College for an academic exchange. In fact, although the words are high-sounding, the purpose is to see with your own eyes what Liang Ke's magic pet is like. Johnson felt the need to let the frogs at the bottom of the well see and understand, so he went to Prince Conrad's house early in the morning, and the butler told Aragon to go out early in the morning, and he came here after lunchtime.
Liang Ke really didn't want to accept such an invitation, if Sanduo was allowed to stand there honestly and be looked at by a group of old pedants with glasses, it was estimated that Liang Ke would have to pay at least a bag of magic crystals. But he looked at Johnson's sincere face, and looked at Rambore's pleading eyes, so he could only agree to it. It's just that in the depths of his soul, he had a hard bargain with Sanduo, and finally got Sanduo's cooperation at the price of thirty high-level demonic beast crystals.
Jonah College is located on the outskirts of the city of Gallente, not far from the city of Sua River, and their carriage quickly left the city along the dirt road under the embankment, and soon came to the gate of the first school in the Gallent Empire, "Jonah College".
This high-level institution of learning, which has cultivated countless elites, has a long history, and the mottled and thick walls are covered with a layer of moss, and the sinuous and soft Maniro vines peek out of the walls, gently wrapping around the various guardian beast statues on the wall stacks, and some of the faster ones have crossed the wall and hung out of the wall, swaying slowly in the wind.
The gates of the academy are always open, and two large wrought-iron gates are pulled to flank the pillars, and the ornaments on the doors tell the story of the god of wisdom, "Granmodo", who received the Book of Wisdom and received enlightenment. In front of the door, young students came and went on the gravel road, talking about topics of common interest. More than 100 meters stretched on both sides of the door, all kinds of vendors set up stalls on both sides of the road, shouting and selling all kinds of daily necessities to the students passing by, and some adventurers or bounty hunters sold the magic materials they had worked so hard to collect.
Liang Ke helped Ramboer's slender jade hand to get out of the carriage, and a clutch habitually hugged Ramboer's slender waist, and Ramboer, who was as delicate as a rose, gently patted the back of his hand with his right hand, and went around Johnson's right side with a red face to hide. Liang Ke saw that Johnson didn't seem to be paying attention, coughed twice, straightened the wide pointed collar of the dark red velvet dress, and exposed the snow-white and cumbersome lace neckline on the shirt, making himself look more like a gentleman.
"Sister!"
"Johnson-sensei!"
Just as a few people walked briskly past the wide school gate, two crisp voices stopped them. Liang Ke turned back to follow the voice, and it was two small boys who ran over with a large pile of debris, and the animal feathers raised high covered their faces, and it was not until they excitedly ran off the feathers on the ground that Liang Ke saw the people clearly.
"Sister, sister, why haven't I seen you come to school in the past few days, hum! If you don't give me some benefits, I will definitely ......" The little boy who ran in front didn't care about picking up the things that fell on the ground, put the bamboo basket in his hand to the ground, and held Lan Boer's hand, when he saw Liang Ke on Lan Boer's side clearly, he was slightly stunned, and then shouted excitedly.
"Haha! You...... You're the Master of Aragon, you're the magical Master of Aragon! You're really here in the Imperial Capital? Whaha! This time, those guys from the Martial Arts Academy are going to have nothing to say. You must throw stones at them again, so that those who have no knowledge know what power is......" The little boy pulled Liang Ke and chattered, Liang Ke didn't know how to deal with this little guy who was as excited as he was jumping, or Ramboer saw Liang Ke's embarrassment and spoke out to relieve him.
"Valen! You can't be so rude! Johnson-sensei is here, shouldn't you say hello first?"
Little Valen was so frightened by his sister that he stuck out his tongue and hurriedly saluted Johnson. Johnson was accustomed to the little guy's perversity, and he smiled and touched the top of his head to say hello.
In the distance, another boy just picked up the feathers that fell to the ground, and after looking up to see Liang Ke's appearance clearly, he was so frightened that he dropped a whole basket of things to the ground, and a few round crystal balls rolled out of the distance, and he didn't catch up to pick them up, but just stood there in a daze and shivered, seeing that tears were about to flow out. Johnson looked at the chubby boy and shook his head helplessly, beckoning and calling, "Spondy, come here!"
The little fat man named Si Pound was frightened by Liang Ke at the foot of Mount Narunto last time, and his problem of trembling when he saw the big dog has not yet healed, and now he sees Liang Ke again, a demon, and he immediately recalls that terrible experience. He wanted to turn around and run, but his two legs didn't obey the call, and now when he heard the teacher's call, he could only stubbornly come over to salute, and then quickly jumped behind little Valen and hid.
Liang Ke laughed, bent down to pick up the crystal balls on the ground, wiped the dust off them with a handkerchief, and sent them to the little fat man Spanda. He plucked up the courage to take it in his hand, and his gaze at Liang Ke was no longer so fearful. Valen grimaced at Spend, took his hand and picked up all the things scattered on the ground into a bamboo basket, and followed Mr. Johnson and the others into the school.
Jonah College is a comprehensive institution of learning, involving a wide variety of classified fields, among which magic, martial arts, military command, business, agriculture and other colleges are the most popular, and the number of students is also the largest, accounting for more than half of the total number of students in the college. These colleges are located on the main campus of Jonah College, and the buildings are four or five stories high, and the buildings of the different disciplines are separated by huge and liso green trees, and the whole campus looks decent and organized.
Walking on the gravel road of the campus, the eyes are full of the tender green of the green of the blue pearl grass and the purple red of the tiger claw vine, and in addition to the fragrance of flowers, the air is a faint fishy smell of parchment. Walking less than 100 meters along the straight main road, a bust of four or five meters tall rises in the middle of the road, and the gravel road separates the left and right sides, bypassing the statue and stretching into the distance.
Needless to say, Liang Ke also knew that this statue would only be Jonah, the founder of the academy. The statue is intricately carved from a single piece of white wood lang stone from the shores of Lake Biraya, with a soft velvet hat with smooth folds and a slightly rolled brim gently pressed against the brim of his thick curls. His long, thin eyebrows hung down from the corners of his eyes, his eyes were shining in his sunken sockets, and he looked down at the tip of the pen in his right hand, as if he was thinking about some problem. The cheekbones of his cheeks were exposed by the emaciation, and the thick long beard covered his ears to his chest, blocking a book in his left hand.
Liang Ke came to the statue, and without waiting for Johnson to introduce him, he respectfully gave a student salute. Johnson and Ramboel didn't know that he had read Jonah's notes in Narondo and were confused. In the face of Ramboer's questioning, Liang Ke only deduced that everyone in the world should respect such a great wise man, and what he learned may also come from the spread of the wisdom of this scholar, so it is appropriate to bow to the old man. Liang Ke's explanation has once again enhanced his glorious image, and Johnson praised him as a representative of respecting teachers and respecting the sages. Thanks to Liang Ke's thick skin, Leng didn't let people see that he was so ashamed that he almost covered his head with clothes.
It took a few people to walk for more than ten minutes before they came to a gray-white stone building, which was obviously thicker than the others, with narrow and dim windows, and looked more like a fortress. Liang Ke walked into the building under the leadership of Johnson, winding up the stairs on one side, several people chatted while walking, Johnson explained to Liang Ke that the buildings of the magic academy are like this, in order to prevent those magic maniacs from easily blowing up the building when doing experiments, Liang Ke then understood the truth.
Ramboer entered the door and left with little Valen, and Pound took the opportunity to slip away. In a short time, they came to a large hall, at a long table covered with flannel, where several old men with pointed hats were already waiting, and when they saw them enter, they quickly got up and greeted the door.
