Roman opened the booklet, which listed all the colleges at the compulsory education stage in Dihai, divided into grades according to hardware facilities, teaching quality, and student class.

These three points complement each other, one of them is high, and the other two will not be low.

But Roman didn't care about any of this, because the purpose of his education was pure, that is, to obtain a complete ancient lineage.

In the compulsory education stage, the textbooks are unified, the syllabus is unified, and the chip has a super learning ability, and the knowledge that Roman learns in the classroom will not be much different.

But this knowledge is usually only seventy percent of the ancient inheritance, and what Roman cares about is the remaining thirty percent.

Many free public schools do not have the remaining 30 percent, because the people who go to school are the common people, and 70 percent is enough.

Moreover, the commoners are not financially wealthy, and they don't have the spare money and time to study hard, so Roman immediately excluded the commoners' community schools.

The only options he could choose were the top aristocratic private colleges, which not only had to pay expensive tuition, but also had to pass a rigorous entrance exam.

The students studying in it are all descendants of second-level wizards, and basically include all the upper magnates of the earthly sea.

Although it is a gathering place for the second generation of the powerful, in order to cover up its ugly nature, a small number of places will be allocated every year to the lower classes of civilians for fair competition.

A small number of civilians go to institutions of higher learning, and most of them go to community colleges, and this small number of top civilians are Roman's rivals.

He had to win the small towns in the assessment months later.

Roman is confident in this, because he has a chip, and in the era of paper popularization and knowledge decline, it is easy to pass the exam.

The only question now is which institution Roman should choose.

The educational goals of different levels of institutions are different, with free community colleges training apprentices and first-level wizards, while institutions of higher learning have training goals for second-level wizards.

Therefore, institutions of higher learning will teach the most complete ancient lineage.

Thanks to the complete lineage, it was easier for Earthsea to be promoted to a second-level wizard, and there were more second-level wizards than the Academy Alliance and the Holy Spirit Temple combined.

Roman flipped to the last page of the pamphlet and looked at the profiles of several institutions of higher learning, and he found that under the same syllabus, they had their own characteristics.

After some consideration, Roman decided to choose Allen Private College, which has three characteristics, the richest collection of materials, free time, and strict assessment.

Imagine the Chinese network

Through the chip, the more Roman knowledge, the stronger the soft power, in the Allen Academy, in addition to the ancient inheritance, Roman can also obtain pollution source research materials.

Rather than an academy, it is more like a research institution, the system is similar to that of the Earth University, with free time and fewer constraints, and Roman hates organizational constraints, which is deeply appealing to him.

The assessment is strict, strict in and out, to ensure that the people staying inside are cattle, which is convenient for academic exchanges and avoids contact with strange inferior people.

And with the chip in hand, Roman is possessed by God, and he is not afraid of exams at all.

After choosing a college, Roman began to prepare for the entrance exam, and the pamphlet listed the subjects and reference books for the entrance exam, and Roman went directly to the bookstore to buy revision materials.

Although when he was in the bookstore, he could record directly with a chip, but in order to hide his eyes, Roman still bought a full set of revision materials.

As soon as he returned to the inn near the port, he met Ted, who had come to look for him, and when Ted saw the book in Roman's hand, he was surprised:

"Oh my God, you actually took Allen's private! That's notoriously hard to get into! The exam starts in two months, is there enough time to revise? After all, you have to juggle work on board! ”

Roman didn't explain, and said with a smile: "No matter how difficult it is, I can get in!" ”

Ted didn't delve into it anymore, and replied with a smile: "No matter what, I hope you can pass the exam, get ahead in the future, and take care of my family's business!" ”

Roman laughed and replied: "Gou Fugui, don't forget!" ”

Then he asked, "Did you come to me this time, is there anything wrong?" ”

Ted remembered the matter at this time, and hurriedly said: "I just received a big order, and I want to leave immediately, so the vacation is canceled, and as compensation, the salary is tripled!" ”

Triple salary? After this trip, Roman will be able to make up all the tuition fees.

So he was curious: "Triple salary? Presumably the profits are greater, what to do? ”

Ted said: "Catch youyu, there is a local tyrant who needs a lot of youyu, and he paid a high price for my father to catch it, and there is a place where you fish are migrating, and it is easy to catch." ”

Roman looked at the place and frowned, "That's a level 5 danger zone, right?" In danger, you two first-level wizards simply can't deal with it..."

Ted said disdainfully: "Wealth and danger are begging!" After this order, my father and I will be able to buy another boat, and then I will be the captain, and together with my father, we will become bigger and stronger, and create more brilliance! ”

Ted Dexing was on the head, and he and Roman met two days later, and then came to the first floor of the hotel for dinner.

Grilled ribs, mushroom soup, butter toast, and various juices and vitamins were served on the table, and Roman had a great appetite and devoured it.

After eating fish and chips on the boat for a month, he had already vomited, and remembering the different sauces every day, and even mustard, Roman felt sick to his stomach.

He has always been pampered, how could he have eaten such food, if it weren't for the secret realm resources to open a small stove every day, he would have been unable to stand it.

Remembering that he would leave two days later, Roman stepped up to enjoy the delicious food in front of him.

At this time, there were many people sitting in the restaurant, all whispering and talking in whispers, they were all mortals, and there was no force field on their bodies.

Roman easily collected their conversation through the power of the spirit.

One piece of information caught his attention, the Sheriff's Department recently launched a joint operation to destroy an Abyss Cult stronghold and capture a number of big people.

After this battle, the Abyss Cult's forces on Blackreef Island suffered heavy losses, and under the follow-up high pressure, the remnants either lurked in the shadows or left Blackreef Island.

"Cult?" Roman recalls the black market information, and has a bad premonition in his heart, but he can't tell where it came from.

In the earthly sea, there are thousands of cults of all kinds, and the objects of worship are strange, worms, jellyfish, fish, stars... Only the unexpected, not the unexpected.

But no matter what the belief is, the believer's desire is very unified, and that is to revive the ancient gods and break the passage to the surface.

The people of Dihai knew their history well and knew that there was a place full of sunshine above their heads, where there was no spiritual pollution, there were countless cultivation resources, and wizards could control their own destiny.

Therefore, every people of the earth and sea are eager to return to the surface, but they advocate different methods, and the cult advocates reviving the evil gods, borrowing strength, and breaking down barriers.

However, how can evil gods be resurrected, and without mentioning spiritual pollution and biological mutation, all kinds of religious rituals are extremely anti-human and seriously endanger social order.

So they were severely suppressed and became street rats.

Through the conversation, Roman noticed that the Abyss Sect believed in a god in the shape of a fish, and Roman went to sea this time to catch the fish.

Thinking about the connection, the uneasiness in my heart became more and more intense, and I couldn't help but think, "Should I quit the lucky number?" Anyway, the household registration is already on the list, and it seems that it is possible to save money by changing jobs..."

But then I thought of the exam two months later, and I still dispelled this idea, after passing the entrance exam, you must pay the tuition fee, otherwise you will be disqualified.

The work that saved up for two months for tuition, except for fishing, was basically written in the criminal law.

The filthy bird feather removal contract, with the second-level cultivation, Roman thought about fishing for the wrong door, but because he didn't understand the criminal investigation force of Dihai, he still didn't act rashly.

Finally, the worry turned into a sigh: "Let's hope everything goes well!" ”

Two days later, Roman traveled to the harbor and boarded the Lucky, where the captain and Ted recruited another group of temporary workers.

Most of them have knightly strength, and they are responsible for processing the fish in the workshop at the bottom of the ship and making it into canned food.

The employer charged an exorbitant price for the cans, enough to drive Jack and Ted to take risks.

"Woo--!"

Under the flames of witchcraft, the boiler burned, and the blades on both sides of the Lucky began to turn, slowly pushing the fishing boat away from the harbor.

Roman sat at the top of the mast, the salty sea breeze blowing in his face, listening to the sound of waves crashing on the shore and watching the vanishing horizon.

Then I picked up the fish and chips, and asked for a bite, the tomato cheese mixed with the fragrance of French fries, with the cod charred on the outside and tender on the inside, it was full of flavor for a while.

At the moment, Roman admits that if you don't eat it every day, the fish and chips taste really good.

After several days of sailing, the Lucky reached the edge of the danger zone safely, and the captain cheered everyone up, and the patrol went from twice a day to three times a day.

On the lookout, watching the Lucky sail past the buoy representing the danger zone, I don't know if it is psychological, and Roman is even more depressed.

The chip immediately sent a prompt: "Ding! The perception of unknown whispers has been filtered and isolated! ”

This means that the ship has been targeted by the source of pollution, and Roman immediately cheers up his spirits, spreads his essence and magic power, and strengthens his vigilance.

The other crew members on the ship also heard the whispers and strengthened their vigilance, and the whole ship was tense and alerted.

After a while, Roman sounded the alarm, indicating that the source of contamination had been found ahead, and the captain father and son went into battle together to release depth charges towards the target area.

Unable to open his senses, the captain can only rely on his intuition to calculate the landing point, resulting in a low accuracy that makes it difficult to damage the monster and make it easy for it to approach the ship.

On the sea ahead, the fog was filled, and suddenly, a lump of flesh reopened the thick fog and entered everyone's field of vision.

The meat ball has no mosaic, but it is still extremely disgusting, just a part of the monster. The main body is still underwater.

In Roman's perception, the underwater part is full of mosaics.

As the distance approached, the captain's father and son's heads began to rise, and the depth charges continued to inflict damage on the monsters, and not only them, but also the other third-level apprentices on the ship joined the attack.

Two first-level wizards and nearly a hundred third-level apprentices turned the Lucky into a cruiser, with extremely fierce firepower, and before the monster could touch the hull, it was covered in bruises and ran out of vitality.

But before everyone could cheer, the monster's corpse exploded like a whale explosion, and dark green liquid splashed all over the hull.

Many of the crew members were caught off guard, sprayed, screamed, and hurriedly looked for water to rinse.

The corpse of the source of the pollution carried mental pollution, and it was impossible to even look at it, let alone be touched by blood, and the consequences were unpredictable.

For a while, the chickens and dogs on the ship jumped, and the crew panicked, trembling all over, and their hands and feet were cold.

At this time, the captain and Ted came forward and roared: "Don't panic! Wash it with clean water first, listen to the command, and don't move around! Otherwise die! ”

As soon as the captain appeared, everyone seemed to have found the backbone, and they quieted down one after another, cleaning the slime, and so far, they were still sane and their mental pollution was not serious.

These crew members are all wizards, and the lowest level of cultivation is a third-level apprentice, and they are humanoid batteries-like existences, if they go crazy, they will sink the ship in minutes.

So, the hidden danger had to be eliminated, and after the crew had washed off the slime, the captain ordered them to enter the isolation chamber for routine isolation.

The isolation cabin is specially reinforced, which can resist the witchcraft of the third-level apprentice to a certain extent, and can leave enough time for the captain to react in the event of a change in the crew.

After this, the crew was reduced by 30%, and their work was evenly distributed among the others, and the workload increased a lot.

Even Roman, after the eight-hour lookout, was in charge of patrolling everywhere.

Roman knew that the crisis was not over, because the chip prompted, the whispers in his ears had not disappeared, and the source of pollution was still staring at the ship.

As the days went on, the atmosphere on the ship became more and more oppressive, and everyone became irritable, often clashing over trivial matters.

Within a few days, there were two brawls on board, and they did not dare to use witchcraft due to the constraints of the contract, and several of them were confined afterwards.

Captain Jack was keenly aware of something was wrong, and took various measures to calm his emotions, such as raising food, strengthening inspections, and setting up a special adjustment team, so that there was no big mess.

But these are not curing the root cause, and the root cause is the spiritual pollution in the sea, and if the source of pollution is not removed, the crisis will not end unless it is returned to the port.

After a few more days, the situation changed, and the crew members who came into contact with an unknown liquid suddenly died in the isolation room, and a monster emerged from their bodies in an attempt to leave the isolation room, but was blocked.

When the two guarded third-level apprentices saw the monster, they immediately screamed and gouged out their eyes, and jumped into the sea when everyone was caught off guard.

The captain reacted quickly and cast a purifying sorcery to slay the monster, and before dying, the monster let out a sharp wail that resounded throughout the ship.

The next moment, irritability, anger, and frenzy filled the hearts of every seafarer, and everyone was struggling to control themselves.

The captain first returned to normal, then the third apprentice, and was about to listen to the reports from all over the place, only to find a riot in the processing area at the bottom of the cabin.

Dozens of knightly strength workers picked up their tools and smashed them at the third-level apprentice overseer.

However, the Overseer was prepared, activating the sorcery shield, blocking the attack, and then using sorcery to kill the Riot Knight.

Roman was at the top of the mast, eating fish and chips, spreading his magic powers, and watching everything indifferently.

He wasn't worried, as the captain was a first-class wizard capable of suppressing any internal unrest, and he was more curious about what else the source of pollution could do.

At this time, at the bottom of the cabin, Captain Jack dug up several pieces of unidentified flesh from the corpses of the rioters, and the white light flashed in his hands, and the pieces of flesh turned to ashes.

Ted on the side looked ugly and said, "Father, someone has been parasitized, this can't be done!" Why don't you give up fishing and go back to Blackreef! ”

Jack's face was gloomy and he replied, "Are you okay?" We're here, and that thing won't let us go back at all! ”

Ted said in frustration, "So what do we do?" We don't have detection equipment, so are we going to isolate everyone? ”

Jack silently took out a rune stone, and Ted exclaimed, "Dad, this is worth more than the entire ship!" Is it used to save lives at critical times? ”

Jack said, "Now it's helping!" ”

With that, a white light enveloped the entire ship.
