Chapter 15: Meet Again

There was a delay for a while in the "Rick Repair" alchemy repair shop, and it was close to noon at this time.

Although Merge's stomach was "gurgling" in protest, he was very eager to see the true face of the Star Courtyard, so he had to temporarily hold back his hunger, find the Star Courtyard first, and then settle the lunch matter after entering the Star Courtyard and meeting Oleel.

However, with the departure of "Rick Repair", it is worth rejoicing that his arm is finally itch-free. When he had just spoken to the old man in the alchemy repair shop, Merge had been scratching his arm, and he didn't know if this move would leave a bad impression on the old man.

Merge rolled up his sleeves, glanced at his arm that had been scratched red, and said to himself: It seems that it is time to take a bath......

Following the route told by Taihu, Merge walked briskly through the bustling Makuten City. However, since Taihu hadn't been to Makuten City for years, many of the landmarks that Taihu had told had been transformed, so Merge had to stop and ask passers-by where the Star Courtyard was.

Because the Star Academy is famous in the mainland, there are often people who come to visit, and some people come to study, although the purpose is different, but the destination is the Star Academy. Therefore, people who have lived in Makuten City for a long time often encounter outsiders asking for directions to the Star Academy, and Merge is just one of them.

Under the guidance of well-meaning passers-by, Merge finally came to the vicinity of the Star Courtyard after spending half an hour. But Merge only reached the low wall on the periphery of the Star Courtyard at this time, and there was still a short distance from the main gate of the Star Courtyard.

Before seeing the true face of the Star Academy, Merge had also imagined what this Star Academy, which was known as one of the top colleges in the mainland and a holy place for alchemists, would look like.

Is it a grand and culturally rich campus, or is it a school that looks dilapidated but is not simple?

Before coming to the outside of the walls of the Star Courtyard, Merge didn't know.

But at this time, Merge, who was walking along the low wall of the Star Courtyard, kept looking at the Star Courtyard inside the low wall, and he also got the answer in his heart.

There are many times when people have infinite conjectures about the things, things or people they want, good or bad. I often wonder if I will be more excited, shocked, disappointed, or regretful than ever before I reach the step I hope for, or when I reach the thing I yearn for.

Because of the unknown, there are infinite possibilities.

Just like at this moment, when the longed-for Star Courtyard finally met Merge's eyes, Merge realized that all his conjectures about the Star Courtyard were inaccurate.

Merge had imagined how high-end and architectural the Star Academy would look, and Merge had imagined that the Star Academy would be an ordinary academy that was not eye-catching on the outside but focused on the inner value. But only when Merge really saw the true face of the Star Courtyard with his own eyes, did he find that the appearance of the Star Courtyard was completely different from what he imagined, but it was in his imagination.

The Star Academy is different from Merge's conjecture because his speculation about the unknown is vague and imaginary. And the Star Courtyard is in Merge's imagination, because the Star Courtyard exists and is real.

Guessing about the real unknown, the answers will of course be mixed. However, due to the ambiguity and falsity of the conjecture, the conjecture has no exact real form, and it also leads to unexpected and complex emotions when Merge sees the true face of the Star Academy.

As Merge thought, looking through the low wall, the Star Courtyard is ordinary, ordinary buildings, ordinary roads......

But because the ordinary Star Courtyard is pregnant with the extraordinary, every building, every street, every flower, every tree, and every grass in the Star Courtyard is unexpected.

The extraordinary in the ordinary, this is the answer that Merge got in his heart after seeing the star courtyard for the first time.

............

............

Merge had been walking along the low wall of the Star Courtyard for about a quarter of an hour when he suddenly heard the sound of a staccato quarrel in the distance ahead. Merge quickened his pace and walked forward.

The direction from which the quarrel came was the main entrance of the Star Courtyard, and Merge could conclude that someone should have had a big argument at the gate of the Star Courtyard.

Thinking of this, Merge frowned slightly, thinking to himself who would have the courage to quarrel at the gate of the famous Star Courtyard?

When Merge approached the main entrance of the Star Courtyard, he could see a fat man in a low-level adventurer's costume from a distance, arguing fiercely with two people wearing black striped sleeve robes with golden star symbols tattooed on the chest of the robe.

Obviously, the two people wearing black tattooed sleeve robes should be students of the Star Academy, and the fat man who quarreled with the two students of the Star Academy, besides Su Bai, who else could it be?

Mo Ge touched his forehead a little helplessly, although Mo Ge didn't know what the reason for Su Bai and the two students of the Star Academy was arguing, but only Su Bai was not afraid of the guy, and dared to quarrel with the students of the Star Academy at the gate of the Star Academy.

"Huh? I really didn't expect to meet you here, why did you come to the Star Courtyard, did you see that I was bullied and came to help me quarrel?" Su Bai saw Merge coming from a distance, and hurriedly pulled Merge over, "Do you two see me fat and bully? Two people quarrel with me alone, what kind of ability, now that my buddy is here, I have the ability to continue!"

Hearing this, the faces of the two Star Academy students opposite Su Bai instantly darkened, one of them looked at Su Bai with cold eyes and did not speak, and the other said helplessly: "Why did we bully you?

"We don't have time to quarrel with you, the enrollment period of the Star Academy has ended, if you want to enter the Star Academy, you need to show the recommendation letter of the teacher or dean of the Star Academy, otherwise it is impossible for us to let you in, this is the responsibility of the two of us. Another student, whose eyes were indifferent, said coldly.

Merge slapped away the fat hand that Su Bai was holding his clothes, and asked with a puzzled look in his eyes, "Do you want to enter the Star Courtyard?"

"That's right!" Su Bai wiped the beads of sweat off his neck and face, it seemed that arguing with the two students at the gate of the Star Academy had consumed a lot of his physical strength.

"I first came to Makuten City to enter the Star Courtyard because that old man Moro asked me to come here, but when I wanted to enter the Star Courtyard, these two people did everything they could to obstruct me and prevent me from entering. I told the two of them that it was the old man Moro who let me enter the Star Academy, but they still didn't let me in, and kept asking me to take out a letter of recommendation, saying that I couldn't enter the Star Academy without a letter of recommendation. With that, Su Bai also glared at the two students of the Star Academy.

"That...... Who is Moro?" asked Merge with an embarrassed expression.

Hearing Merge's question, Su Bai, who was already unfamiliar with Merge's loneliness, didn't feel that there was anything strange about this question, and the two students standing at the gate of the Star Academy looked at Merge with shocked expressions, as if Merge was some rare monster.

The two students of the Star Academy glanced at each other, and they both saw the look of surprise in each other's eyes.

"He doesn't even know who Mr. Moro is?" said one of the students in disbelief.

"That's right, Mo Luo, the dean of the famous Star Academy's Douqi Academy, haven't you heard of this kid?"

After listening to the surprised conversation between the two students, there was no need for Su Bai to explain Moege's question, and they said one by one, which also made Merge finally know who Moro was.

"You said that Dean Moro asked you to come to the Star Academy to study, then it is impossible for him not to leave a letter of recommendation, so you should tell me the truth. After learning about Moro's identity, Merge rethought the dispute between Su Bai and the two students at the gate of the Star Academy, and then whispered to Su Bai.

Of course, Merge didn't believe that Moro, the dean of the Star Academy's Douqi Academy, didn't leave a recommendation for Su Bai, and even Oleel's weird-tempered old urchin entrusted Taihu and handed over the recommendation to Merge, who didn't believe that there would be a more unreliable teacher than Oriel.

Su Bai glanced at Merge, thinking that it would be useless to hide it any longer, and explained to Merge with a very sad face at the moment: "I sold the recommendation letter given to me by the old man ......."

"Sold?"

"Yes, I sold ......"

Hearing this, Moge's eyes widened, and he asked in surprise: "The recommended book can also be sold, and how much did it cost?"

The two of them, who were students of the Star Academy, could of course hear the whispers of Merge and Su Bai at the moment. However, after hearing that Merge was very curious about how much Su Bai sold the recommendation book, rather than why Su Bai sold such an important thing as the recommendation book, the two of them instantly turned dark.

The two looked at the fat man and the gray-haired young man standing in front of them with strange eyes, and said in their hearts: It's really like a gathering of things, and there are few normal people around them.

However, hearing Merge's question, Su Bai said a little complacently: "It was sold for 1.8 million gold coins." ”

"So many ......" Hearing that Su Bai sold the recommendation of the dean of the Douqi Academy for one million and eight hundred thousand gold coins, Merge grew his mouth with emotion, raised his hand and patted Su Bai's shoulder, and said, "You will still make money!"

While praising Su Bai, Merge was thinking about whether he sold the news of the beast tide to the Assassins Association before selling 100,000 gold coins, or did he get all the gold coins in two installments. And just a recommendation book sold for 1.8 million gold coins, and Merge was distressed, why didn't he think of such a cost-effective thing?

You must know that Merge also has a recommendation in his hand, and it is a recommendation from Oleel, the dean of the Star Academy Magic Academy, and the price is not much different from the recommendation of the Douqi Dean Moro.

However, Merger's sanity managed to suppress the lure of gold coins to him.

Merge frowned, and said to Su Bai with a puzzled expression: "Why do you want to sell a letter of recommendation? If you can get the wine that he regards as a treasure from the old man in the tavern, I think you will not lack this gold coin." ”

"Alas...... It's hard to put into words......" Su Bai remembered that he had sold the book of recommendation, and his eyes immediately dimmed.

"Okay, don't say it if you don't want to say it, let's go first. Seeing Su Bai's gloomy expression, Merge knew that this matter was unspeakable for Su Bai, so he didn't ask any more.

Merge took out the recommendation letter given to him by Olerto Tiger from the storage ring, handed it to the two students at the gate of the Star Academy, and asked, "This is Teacher Olaire's recommendation letter, can the two of us enter the Star Academy now?"

Taking the letter of recommendation from Merger, the two students looked at the black card in their hands in surprise. The two of them took turns rubbing for a while, and after looking at it for a while, they realized that the black card was indeed a recommendation left by Dean Olaire.

Seeing this, the two students looked at each other again with shocked faces, and said in their hearts: One of these two strange people is clamoring to see Dean Moro, and the other doesn't know who Dean Moro is, but they took out Dean Ole's recommendation, can there be anything more strange than this?

Although Merge didn't know how the two students of the Star Academy used to distinguish the authenticity of the recommendation, after the two students finally nodded and allowed the two of them to enter the Star Academy, Merge took Su Bai with an excited face and entered the Star Academy that he had been fascinated for a long time.
