Chapter Seventy-Three: Inner City Academy
"Are you starting to take an interest in my abyssal existence?"
An Ling looked into Yago's eyes, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a playful smile.
"Yes."
Yago calmly looked at An Ling and said bluntly:
"Although neither my teacher nor I know which one of you are in the abyss, I have developed a strong interest in you."
"Haha~"
An Ling took a sip of the juice milk in his hand and said with a smile:
"It's because I'm giving you too gentle feelings, so you all think I'm a good person, right?"
"I'm not qualified to judge your good or evil."
Yago shook his head calmly.
"But since you promised not to harm the City of Knowledge, you have no intention of devouring my soul. Then I'm not too scared when it comes to you. ”
"After the fear subsided, I became more interested and curious about you."
He paused, and then couldn't help but continue:
"Frankly, neither I, nor my teacher, nor anyone in the Summit Council would believe that an Abyssal Demon could be truly friendly, and that you may have other conspiracy or evil intentions in mind that are beyond our knowledge, or that we have no idea of."
"But that doesn't matter, now that you've made a commitment to be a partner in our Knowledge Capital, we'll treat you like a collaborator."
An Ling nodded with a smile and teased:
"You're very open-minded."
"As it should be."
Yago humbly saluted An Ling, and then, as if he had made a decision, he took a deep breath and asked An Ling respectfully, "Your Excellency An Ling, may I allow me to make a bold request to you?" ”
An Ling raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile:
"You want me to cooperate with your abyss research?"
Yago's face suddenly turned red.
"It's a bold idea, but I'm willing to trade everything I have if you agree."
"Hehe~"
An Ling did not answer immediately, but asked slightly sarcastically:
"What does your teacher know about this intimate study of yours?"
Hearing An Ling suddenly change the topic and talk about other things, Yago suddenly felt uncomfortable holding his breath in his chest, but he also endured it, bowed his head slightly and said:
"The teacher knew that I was doing research that I shouldn't be doing, but I wasn't doing it in the capital of knowledge, so he turned a blind eye. He didn't know much about the specifics. ”
"In this case, he shouldn't be aware of this invitation?"
“……”
"Yes."
"Hmph~"
An Ling laughed twice and sneered:
"As the chief mage of the City of Knowledge, the disciple of the Sage, you are really deviant."
Hearing An Ling's taunt, Ya Go's face stiffened and clenched his fists, and in the next second, he returned to normal, and asked An Ling with a modest and polite smile:
"Then Your Excellency An Ling, do you accept my plea?"
"Hmm~"
An Ling put down the cup in his hand and said casually:
"I'm not going to promise you anything, but I can promise you to go to your magic lab for a while and have a chat. What do you think? ”
Yago pondered for a second, then said in a deep voice:
"That's enough, Your Excellency."
An Ling nodded, waved his hand and said:
"Well, we'll talk about that later, and now you can take me to the magician with peace of mind."
Yago is so obsessed with studying the abyss, and there is probably a hidden story behind it, and An Ling is eager to hear the story behind it. But things come one by one, and there is no hurry.
"I will definitely take care of this."
Yago suppressed the excitement in his eyes, and then urged the coachman to go faster.
……
After a few moments, the carriage came to a halt on a street corner.
An Ling got out of the car, looked around, and saw a gorgeous magic high-rise building, an incomparably prosperous commercial block, behind the block, is a large neatly arranged and clean, solemn style, peculiar, elegant and heavy building complex. There are also a variety of huge magical buildings that look like palaces.
"Where is this?"
An Ling turned his head to look at Yago and asked.
Yago bowed slightly to An Ling and said:
"This is Solina University, the largest college in the world, and the place we are standing in is the fascibule of the college. It is also the most prosperous area of the intellectual capital. ”
"Is the college vestibule directly the most prosperous business district?"
An Ling nodded, and asked again:
"How big is the largest academy in the world?"
Yago smiled faintly and said in a slightly proud tone:
"The city of knowledge is no less than the thousand-year-old capital of the Omar Empire, and is more than three to four times the size of the capital of the average kingdom. The area of the college is one-eighth of the city. ”
In other words, almost an academy is the size of a small city. That's not small. ”
An Ling showed a learned expression, and continued to ask curiously:
"Are all the scholars in the academy?"
Yago shook his head and replied earnestly:
"There are the most scholars and the highest quality. But our academy teaches everything, and it also produces mages, warriors, and other magicians. ”
"Oh~ good, good."
An Ling praised two sentences, looked around, and said:
"Alright, take me to the magician."
"Yes, please come with me, Your Excellency."
Yago made a gesture of please to a nearby streamlined Hongko building with the respectful gesture of a tour guide.
……
Following Yago all the way to the top floor of the Honggao building, An Ling came to a huge studio that was indescribably exquisite.
It's full of gorgeous magic patterns, magic tools, and magic workbenches. All kinds of magical things are piled together in a harmonious and orderly manner, and the style is not low at a glance.
It's just that there aren't too many people walking around in Nuoda's work hall, so it has to be a little empty first.
"Hey, where's Master Rhoda?"
Yago looked around in confusion.
"He said he'd wait for me here."
"Don't worry, it's coming."
An Ling stared at one of the entrances at the side door of the workshop.
Bang ~ Bang ~ Bang ~
Heavy footsteps rang out, and a huge figure walked in through the side door.
This is a descendant of giants, about six meters tall, wearing plain gray overalls, and equipped with several different types of magical machinery.
The eyes are slightly convex, and the tip of the nose is large and high. He has a fierce face and deep eyes, and his hair delicately resembles that of a nobleman. Slightly hunched, the large and strong muscles on its body seem to be vigorous rocks.
"I'm sorry, I'm late, Master Yago."
After the little giant entered the door, he first apologized politely to Yago, then looked at An Ling and asked:
"He's the one who must be entertained?"
