1003. The territory is as usual
Hot Spring Mountain College, after a year of construction, once irregular mountain, has now become a seamless building, the most central 300 meters high mountaintop, now stands a diameter of more than 100 meters of marble Zhulongtai, the serpentine dragon body carved by black jade surrounds the top of the pillar, on behalf of this Zhulongtai once stayed a dragon god.
In the middle of the mountain, dozens of meters below the dragon carving, in the center of the relief carvings of beluga whales, finless porpoises, humans and sea beasts, a hexagonal magic furnace emblem is radiating light.
The Chinese New Year is approaching, and the Terran students in the academy have already gone home for the holidays, and most of the sea beasts and mermaids have also returned to the Iron Mine Lake Town, whether it is a classroom or a magic laboratory, it seems empty.
The magic ladder at the end of the corridor on the 32nd floor of the main building opened, and a man and a woman walked into the office area belonging to the high-level magister.
"Mentor Tierney, this is the Water Academy? I don't think it's any less than the 5 advanced magic schools in the Tower of Innocence. The woman looked around and couldn't help but let out a sigh of admiration.
"Yes, Lord Crane said so," said Tierney next to him, "but unfortunately you came directly from the teleportation room downstairs, and the building would be much more spectacular if you looked at it from the outside." ”
"Really?"
Tierney led Miledi to his office, pointed to the sculpture dozens of meters high below by the floor-to-ceiling window, and said: "Those marble statues at the bottom of the mountain and in the teaching building were specially sent by Brejac.
I remember that on the day this main building was opened, His Majesty the God Emperor and His Majesty Jinghe appeared at the same time to bless this academy, and His Majesty Jinghe even stopped on the Zhulong Platform and accepted the worship of the mermaid clan, which was thousands of mermaids! ”
As Tierney spoke, he unconsciously turned his wrist, those mermaids had been bled one by one for months, and his wrists ached a little at the mention of these.
"Thanks to you, Teacher Milady, if it weren't for your help, I wouldn't have been able to serve His Majesty Rand in a few months...... Deal with so many mermaids. ”
After winning the Battle of Breyac, the busiest person in the entire Night Kirk City is Tierney, even if Firefly and Gurney come to help, but no matter who bleeds the mermaids, in the end, Tierney can only come over to judge whether to clean up the sea monster eggs.
Therefore, Wendy and Klein selected several assistants for Tierney to assist him in handling other relationships within the academy and the territory, among which Milady, a teacher who specializes in coordinating and rehabilitating the communication of the merfolk because of his good magical foundation and excellent communication skills.
If it weren't for Milady's sudden return to the imperial capital at the end of October because of family affairs, she would definitely have been able to witness the opening of the main building of Hot Spring Mountain in mid-November.
"You're so polite, if it weren't for my father's serious illness, I really wanted to rush over......"
Milady's eyes widened and he looked at the lake in the distance, and almost put his nose against the window: "But, isn't it so ostentatious here that it won't attract the covetousness of the sea god?" ”
"Originally, I thought so," Tierney also agreed, "But I don't know why, the Poseidon side seems to have acquiesced here, and the Poseidon family has promised His Majesty that they will not attack any building with the Demon Furnace Emblem in the future, and even took the initiative to invite His Majesty to build the Demon Furnace Temple on the islands in the open sea." ”
"Huh? So abnormal? Even Milady felt strange, she had been with Tierney for more than half a year, and she knew a rough idea of the contradictions between land and sea.
Tierney nodded, "Yes, the Temple of the Waves even handed over a large number of shell documents to His Majesty, but we checked them for months to confirm that there were no eggs inside. ”
"...... so," Milady sat under the window and looked at the lake in the distance for a long time before asking her inner confusion, "Mentor Tierney?" Did you bring me here on any mission? ”
"Yes, Your Excellency Klein has always advised me to choose some more long-term teaching assistants," Tierney's face unconsciously flushed as he spoke, and he saw that there were usually too many karfish and less contact with girls, "I was able to successfully complete those tasks thanks to your assistance in the first few months, so I very much hope that you will be able to stay here in Hot Springs Mountain in the future......"
"Really? Can it really be? Milady's little face was also flushed.
Two weeks ago, after Miledi's father died of illness, she also moved her family to Night Qicheng, because she had been away for three months, she had long dared not think about continuing to be Tierney's assistant, and she had just in time for the academy to enter the winter vacation, so Miledi did not go back, only prepared to see what she could do when she returned to the academy after the beginning of the New Year.
It's just that I didn't expect that today Tierney not only found her home, but also brought her to Hot Spring Mountain Academy, and was personally invited by him as an assistant.
Milady was still excited, when she heard a voice behind her: "I said Grand Mentor Tierney? Why are you still alone here with your assistant? ”
The two of them turned around and saw Neil and Xiaohua looking at them with a wicked smile, "It's almost dark, and if you don't go back to Yeqi City, you won't be able to catch up with the New Year's Banquet." ”
"My Grand Earl, I can't imagine that I have to trouble you to find it in person every year!" Tierney could only reply in more exaggerated words, "I swear to you, I'll go back!" ”
……
In the last year, because the main cronies needed to return to the fiefdom to take care of it, the annual banquets were arranged in the first few days of January 998. And this year, the main cronies have moved into the northern area of the Padmila Palace, and at the end of the year, they will celebrate the New Year in the Night Qi City, so Rand specially arranged a banquet before Chinese New Year's Eve to enhance their relationship with them.
In the garden of elves, the sound of harps and violins sounded, and a choir of humans, barbarians, orcs, and elves sang melodies that were melodious.
"Spread your wings
Decided to set sail
Destiny is clear
The sky is vast
A sea of stars
My heart desires
……”
All the guests were blown away by the rousing lyrics, and only Rand felt a slight pain in his liver.
"What a good song!" Yavini walked up to Rand and gently touched her glass with him, "That priest Sangki is indeed a rare musician!" Can you let these people come back to the imperial capital with me after the year? I want them to play it once in the palace. ”
Rand smiled and said, "You can take Sanji with you, in terms of musical inheritance, she can be regarded as having obtained the inheritance of His Majesty Lukea!" ”
"Makes sense, will there be a song in a while?" The elf asked.
"Of course there are," Rand looked at Sanki with appreciation, "and six songs, all of which Sanki rehearsed with her students at the conservatory." ”
When he just woke up, Rand himself also had a trace of worry, he had slept for many months, whether there would be contradictions or even conflicts between the orcs, mermaids, sea orcs and barbarians in the territory.
However, what he didn't expect was that not only did the territory run as usual under the leadership of Wendy, Cardinal, and Greia, but also Javinny, Huck, Sanji and others also brought him surprises.
For example, this Sangji priest recruited musical talents and collected music scores in White Wolf City, invited the elves to hold a music salon, organized orcs to make eulogies for the four high-level magical beasts, and even welcomed the divine descent of Lukeya, which can be regarded as confirming the status of the music capital of White Wolf City.
By the time Rand woke up, the four demonic beasts had already felt the blessings brought to them by the believers to varying degrees.
Rand pointed to a group of nezumi in the corner of the garden, and said with a smile: "Look at it later, those nezumi and the monster cats want to sing a hymn for the demonic tigers, and let the rats sing to the cats, this is all Sangji's idea." ”
"That's amazing," the elf was just about to sigh when he came to inspiration, waved his hand at Rand and ran away, "No, I'm going to find her, Her Majesty's previous ode to the Queen of the World Tree was too awkward, I'm going to ask Sanji to compose a song for him too!" ”
