Chapter 588: The Academy Is So Black?
"Harry, get out of here! We're here! ”
Early in the morning, Gervais was called out of the carriage by Ratchey, as they had finally arrived at the City of Hope, the territory of the Holy Alliance's High Academy, after two months of marching.
When Gervais stepped out of the carriage, the first thing that caught his eye was a majestic city.
The walls of this large city are at least 100 meters high, and the walls of the city walls have many runes flowing with light, and it is clear that the city of hope's wall defense does not rely only on height to resist enemies.
At this time, there were many more knights riding monsters on the road before and after Gervais, and Gervais even saw a storm wolf being used as a mount.
When I saw the storm wolf Gweshar, I was quite nostalgic, thinking that my first achievement after becoming the lord was to eradicate the scourge of the storm wolf for the serfs.
"Haha, I've been tired of these two months, City of Hope, here we are!!"
When Gervais stepped out of the carriage, Rage was shouting excitedly, and the whole person was still dancing, it was obvious that the two months of rushing day and night had suffocated a gentleman like him.
Rage's actions attracted the fingers of many people on the side of the road, and Gervais had to stay away from him, lest he be called a fool with him.
"Let's go, Harry, let's go to the city, and I'll take you to a good meal when we enter the city!"
Ratchet was not aware of the fact that he was being treated as a city by passers-by, so he happily asked the guards for two horses, and led Gervais to the front of the group.
……
After entering the city, Gervais truly appreciated the prosperity of this otherworld, and the streets were many times more lively than the holy city of Heka.
If it weren't for the surrounding buildings reminding Gervais, Gervais would have thought that he had returned to his previous life, after all, in Eurasia, such a prosperous scene could never be seen.
After passing through the outer city and entering the inner city, there are noticeably fewer pedestrian instructors on the streets.
However, the streets here are more open, and the buildings on both sides are no longer densely arranged, but have become small buildings with only two or three storeys high, which are surrounded by flower beds and trees, and appear to be full of greenery, peace and harmony.
"It's here! This is the Union Higher School. ”
Walking along the main street, when you reach the end, there is a wide and magnificent gate, where Ratch stops his horse and turns straight to the ground.
Although Ratchey said that he would take Gervais for a big meal, they did not go to the restaurant and hotel as soon as they entered the city, but went to the Higher Academy, after all, Lackey still had a lot of luggage to settle.
"Harry, it's not allowed to ride war horses and monsters in the academy, otherwise you will be deducted credits, so you must remember!"
"Okay, Master Lachi!"
Gervais looked at the academy students coming in and out of the gate, and nodded in response.
Although he thought in his heart that he was not going to enroll, but Raki was in high spirits at the moment, and it was difficult to directly explain that he was going to sell the place and go to the West Coast region.
He planned to leave a letter directly to Rage when he left another day, which would be counted as a farewell.
After entering the college, Ratchet continued to introduce Gervais to the structure of the college.
Although this place is called the academy, through Ratchey's introduction, Gervais knows that the area of this academy is comparable to the area of a county and city level in the previous life.
In the academy, there are a total of 10,000 teachers and students, who belong to the two departments of the Academy of Magic and the Knight Academy.
However, although the academy has a distinction between a magician and a knight, in order to allow students from two different professions to better integrate and get along, in addition to professional knowledge, other general knowledge subjects are taught together.
For example, the customs of the sacred continent, the characteristics of other races, and the history of these common sense knowledge.
After all, whether it is a magician or a knight, when they are fused together, they can only exert their greatest combat effectiveness when they cooperate with each other.
It is precisely because of this that Rache can become classmates with magicians like Adella.
……
After more than ten minutes of walking, Gervais and his party soon arrived at the dormitory area of the academy where Lacchi was.
There are five-story Western-style buildings here, and through Ratchey's introduction, Gervais knows that each small building can accommodate twenty people, that is, four people on the first floor.
When Gervais came to the dormitory where Lackey lived, he found that although it was not a single-family dormitory, it was really enviable, and each of them lived in a two-bedroom dormitory.
The accommodation reminded Gervais of his school days in his previous life, where several people were crammed into a dormitory, which was not as big as a room in Ratchey.
"Well, Harry, it's not bad! When you enroll, you can live in such a suite by paying 100 gold coins a month. ”
Rage looked at Gervais's look and immediately smiled.
As the strongest higher education college in the Holy Continent, the environment is really good, although those low-level colleges also have places for students to stay, but the room is not as big as the toilet here, and it can only be used for sleeping, not to mention how uncomfortable it is.
"What? Ask for 100 gold coins! ”
Gervais was originally quite envious of Lachey, but when he heard the price, he gasped.
Such a house has 100 gold coins a month, and 1,000 gold coins in ten months, isn't this a special robbery?
Even in the holy city of Heka, 1,000 gold coins can buy a small exquisite building, but here you can only live for an academic year.
Gervais was very glad that he didn't want to stay here to learn gilding, otherwise this academy was so dark, and he wouldn't have enough gold coins to spend, and only the second lord like Ratch could afford to learn.
"Hehe, the price is indeed a bit expensive! But Harry, with your talent, if you work hard and become a junior mage sooner, you'll only need 10 gold coins to live in this dormitory! ”
It wasn't surprising that Ratchey reacted when he saw Gervais, after all, it was expensive for him, let alone Harry, who was born as a commoner.
So he quickly added, and seeing that Gervais's expression had eased, Lackey continued.
"In fact, in addition to this kind of dormitory where the group lives in one building, the college also provides a single house."
"It's that the stronger the strength, the less gold you need to spend!"
"For example, if I am now a Silver Peak Knight and want to live in a small building, I need to pay a thousand gold coins every month, but if I become a Golden Knight, I only need to pay a hundred gold coins for a jump."
"If I become a White Flag Knight, then I only need to pay 10 gold coins, and even if I become a Black Flag Knight, then I can live in the academy's dormitory for free!"
Rage said, with a strong look of envy in his tone, obviously envious of those students who could pay the same price as him and live in a single house.
"I see!"
Gervais listened to Ratche's explanation, and only then did he understand why the best academy in the alliance was so dark, which could be regarded as a disguised incentive for students to cultivate hard.
After all, although there are geniuses here, there are also many second lords, so they have a distinction between high and low, and naturally the heart of competition rises.
"Let's go, Harry! Let's go see if Adele and the others are at the academy, and if they are, let's go to lunch together! ”
With that, Rage urged Gervais out of the dormitory and rushed to the location of the Academy of Magic.
If it had been before, Rage wanted to invite Adele out for dinner, it would have been impossible.
But this time it was different, because Gervais was in charge of the break, and Adele and the others owed an adult.
And this adventure Ruchi's men also suffered heavy casualties, so when Adela left, she said that when they came to the City of Hope, she would treat them to a meal when the time came, which was to thank them for their dedication to this adventure.
Rage had been thinking about this for a long time, so as soon as he returned to the academy, he hurriedly pulled Gervais to prepare for a big meal, in fact, to have lunch with Adella.
