Chapter 20: The Floating City
Roman followed the flow of people and stepped off the airship, and was greeted by a huge steel building, like an inverted tack, thick at the top and thin at the bottom, with a huge disc covering the sky and the sun in the upper part, and a huge mountain range in the lower part.
"This is Floating City! It's too big, isn't it? Roman heard the exclamations of the new students beside him, and relevant information came to his mind.
The Floating City is the creation of an ancient wizard, and the manufacturing technology has long been lost, hundreds of years ago, when the first dean explored an ancient secret realm, he discovered this floating city, and then founded a school.
The Floating City is one of the prerequisites for the existence of the Wizarding Academy, and the Manna Eco Zone is rampant with monsters, and some Extreme Devourers can't even deal with the strongest dean, so the Floating City acts as a means of escape.
No matter how strong it is, the Eater of Poles will not be able to fly, while the Floating City can easily rise to a height of 10,000 meters to avoid enemies that cannot be opposed.
Therefore, it is common to hear about the spread of the Mana ecology and the annexation of the virus ecological zone, but it is rare to hear of the collapse of the academy, almost every academy has existed for hundreds of thousands of years, just because it can run away at any time when it encounters danger.
Roman and the others, led by a third-level apprentice, walked through a labyrinth of steel passages, and finally stopped in front of a cabin.
"Now it's the time to choose a major, you line up, call your name and enter in turn, you know?"
Roman was the first, and was greeted by an old man sitting at a table, who pointed to a tome and said:
"Here is an introduction to the majors of the college, you have five minutes to read, and then make a choice, if you can't decide, I will randomly assign you one."
Roman's face was ugly, and he frowned and said, "Five minutes? How is it possible to see it all! ”
The old man spread his hands and said, "No way, the regulations are so, I advise you to hurry up, five seconds have passed." ”
"Humph! This is clearly forcing random candidates! Roman cursed in his heart as he ordered the chip:
"Chip, set up a scanning task, filter information!"
Roman quickly flipped through the big book, and finally finished it all at four minutes and fifty-nine seconds, when a prompt came from the chip:
"Ding! After the scanning, 60% of the useless information was eliminated, and the screening task ...... was established"
"Ding! The screening results are as follows......"
"Tsk! Such a thick book, sixty percent of it is nonsense, it's really full of malice, if I didn't have a chip, I definitely wouldn't be able to resist! Roman complained as he channeled the information into the memory area.
Energy Department: The main research field is life essence, welfare: 3 magic stones per week, free answer to 3 questions; Obligation to Join: Participate in three exploration missions per year.
Department of Environment: The main research field is ecological environment, welfare: the paper library is free and open, the tutor can answer any questions for free, and the magic stone subsidy is 5 yuan per week; Obligation: Cooperate with exploration missions at all times......
Mutation system: mainly research in the microscopic field, specializing in sperm cell viruses, good at making rune stones, benefits: the tutor answers three questions for free, provides knowledge trading permissions, and has no mandatory tasks.
Hunting Team: Mainly responsible for performing various tasks outside the floating city, good at refining potions and magic items, member benefits: Stack all the benefits of the above three systems, enjoy discounts on store shopping, and get potion rune stone subsidies every week...... Member's Obligations: Mandatory Ecological Zone Garrison Mission. (We have the best conditions, don't hesitate to choose us!) )
In addition, there are miscellaneous majors, and after Roman went through it, he found that except for the mutant system, all other departments will force new students to perform tasks in the ecological zone, and the more requirements in this regard, the better the welfare!
Wizards value equivalence, so it's not hard to imagine that these missions are life-threatening.
The Flesh Opera House lives up to its name.
At this time, the old man saw that Roman didn't speak, so he smiled and said, "Since you don't choose, it's random......"
"No, I've decided!" Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Roman: "I choose the mutant system!" ”
It is definitely dangerous to go out on a mission, Roman has a chip and does not need to take risks to exchange resources like everyone else, so he decisively chooses the least dangerous and freest mutant line.
When the old man heard this answer, his brows furrowed, and he seemed to be a little surprised and asked, "Do you want to go to the mutant system?" You can think of it, their benefits are the worst......"
Roman sneered and said, "You talk so much nonsense, do you have a conspiracy against me?" Let's be honest, don't beat around the bush, your reaction reminds me of a lot of things, such as my first major, the five-minute reading limit... These treatments... I'm afraid it's just me! ”
The old man's restrictions have only one purpose, to reduce Roman's time to think, so that he can exert hints and influences to make choices that meet his wishes.
But he didn't expect Roman's insight to be so strong, not only to eliminate a lot of useless information, quickly refine the main points, but also to see through his plan, for which he could only laugh awkwardly:
"Then I'll make it clear, Master Mark invites you to join the wilderness hunting team, and on the basis of the existing benefits, I will give you an additional demonic item, do you know that this is a preferential treatment only for fifth-class qualifications."
The head of the Wilderness Hunting Department actually knew about him, Roman was stunned for a moment, and then guessed that it was Colin's sake, so Roman did not hesitate at all, and shook his head decisively and said:
"No, I'll choose the mutant line!"
Joke, high welfare means high mortality, he has a chip in his hand, even if it is a demonized item, he believes that he can get it by his own efforts, why bother to lick the blood at the knife and exchange his life for welfare.
Stick to your original intention and refuse temptation!
In the end, at Roman's insistence, the old man didn't have a good idea to say anything, handed Roman a box and said, "At this time, your basic benefits, apprentice gray robe, academy badge, basic meditation method, and room number plate. ”
Then he waved his hand to summon a ghost and said, "It will take you to the dormitory, the college badge has a map of the floating city, it will mark your location, and the general knowledge questions of the house are in the student handbook." ”
After a brief explanation, he called the next one.
Roman exited through another door in the room, followed by the shadow servants, through the complex passages, and into the dormitory area, where other apprentices passed by from time to time, indifferent to Roman.
Eventually, the shadow servant disappeared in front of a door, Roman took out the room number plate, sank into the meditation space, pulled a trace of spiritual power, attached to the number plate, and after the number plate flickered, inserted into the groove of the door.
"Open the door!"
With a thought, Roman pushed the door and entered, the room was designed with two bedrooms, one living room and one bathroom, a bedroom, a laboratory or study, and the surroundings were cleaned, simple and clean.
Roman nodded in satisfaction, packed up his things, and then opened the academy map and headed to the dining hall to eat.
"Chip, scan the college map, student handbook, enter the memory area......"
"Ding! The task is set up and the scan begins...... After scanning, the information is in ...... transmission"
While Roman was eating dinner, he digested the newly obtained information, and the floating city was known to have five divisions, namely the dormitory area, the trading area, the experimental area, the mining area, and the forbidden area.
Among them, the forbidden area is emphasized in the student handbook that you can't get close, but the reason is not explained, which makes Roman wonder if there is any monster secret treasure sealed inside......
