Chapter 025: Welcome to Oribel Academy
Inside the slightly swaying carriage, dappled light and shadow shrouded the cheeks of Dimmingway and Avenes, who sat together, one looking at his phone and the other flipping through a book.
"How long does it take us to get to the heart of London?" Xia Mingwei put away his phone.
"We took the Piccadilly Line," Anlens flipped the pages, "and it took about 50 to 60 minutes to get to the city centre. ”
"I'm starting to regret agreeing to let you out for a walk."
"Here we are." Anlens closed the book.
The long blue-and-white steel train stopped at the subway station in the center of the city, the doors of the train were open, and Shamingway and Anlens quickly stepped out of the station.
They first had breakfast at "The Wolseley", the same restaurant that Annens had mentioned, and had a British style of bread and dessert and afternoon tea.
The scene he saw on the road was still very novel to Xia Mingwei, after all, he had never been abroad since he was a child.
It was dusk as the two wandered around, and they arrived in the true heart of London, which is also the heart of the city.
A pleasant light rain fell from the sky, and the curtain of rain gently lapped against the Victorian-style building domes.
"The rain goes well with the tone of the city of London," says Ellens, "and it's clean and natural, with a little bit of countryside." ”
"That's it......"
Standing on the banks of the river, Shamingway can see Big Ben, London's landmark, as far as he looks across the thames and the Millennium Bridge over the Thames.
The clock tower glows in the setting sun, birds hover around it at dusk, the waters of the Thames sparkle and sailboats with white flags slowly sail by.
He took a photo as a souvenir.
Annence looked at the banks of the Millennium Bridge and said lightly: "The Millennium Bridge is connected to the Tate Modern at one end and St. Paul's Cathedral at the other, which is the best proof of London: on the one hand, it is a spiritual heritage represented by religion, and on the other hand, it is a brilliant treasure symbolizing modern civilization." ”
"I have no interest in listening to the boasts of the British, but you are a qualified tour guide." After Xia Mingwei finished speaking, he had already walked away.
"Yes, it's almost time for us to go." Aarence followed him.
"Why are casinos in London so common, you can see them just two steps away."
"Unlike Huaxia, it's legal to open a casino in London."
"No wonder gambling dogs are abundant."
"Speaking of which, I had a very interesting experience of making a lot of money in the casino when I first awakened the 'Fraudster' sequence, and those veteran gamblers didn't even know how I cheated, and I used the ability of 'cognitive modification' to make them confuse the cards, causing them to make frequent mistakes in the game, so as to gain the upper hand."
"And then, you were captured by the people of Olibel Academy to study?"
"Yes, but until then, I hadn't lost a single game in the casino, until I met a gambler from Japan, and I played three games with him and didn't even win one."
"You've used all the sequence abilities, and who else can beat you?"
"I thought it was incredible," said Anlens slowly, "and then I inquired from the people at the casino, and the gambler called himself 'Crow', known as the number one gambler in Japan, and was hunting opponents all over the world, and he heard that I hadn't lost here in London, so he set his sights on me." ”
"Could he be the holder of the Gambler sequence?"
"He's not supposed to be a sequencer." Anlens smiled, "However, our freshmen have a holder of the 'Gambler' sequence this time, and they belong to the same class A as you. ”
"So," Xia Mingwei sighed, "what kind of demons and monsters are there in my class: playing the piano and gambling...... Are they really capable carriers of mythology? ”
"You'll be able to see them soon, so let's see for yourself."
"Isn't it too conspicuous to be in London compared to this," said Summerway, "Olibel Academy, located in London?" This is the capital of the United Kingdom. ”
"Hehe, you'll know right away."
After a while, the two of them took the tube to London's West End, and within a short walk they saw an old railway station that had been abandoned for a long time, with rotten signboards crawling with moss, potholed floors with water stains, and historic cracks spreading across the walls, like ghosts stretching out their arms in all directions.
"The school is in this?" Xia Mingwei frowned.
"Yes." Anlens said quietly.
He walked into it with Xia Mingwei and came to platform seven, where there was nothing in front of him, and the rusty track looked extremely hideous in the red of the setting sun.
The two stopped in front of the seventh pillar on the left side of platform seven, and Anlens took out a dark gold key and tapped it three times with it.
Bite.
Bite.
bite
Crisp sounds fell one after another, and the whole world changed.
Xia Mingwei turned his head to look around, the whole train station was completely new, there were several figures standing on the platform, they were staring at Xia Mingwei, a brightly lit brown train was parked on the clean track, the chimney emitted steam, and a vague figure could be seen through the window of the carriage.
"What's the situation?" He asked slowly.
"Remember what I said about the former headmaster?" Anlens smiled.
"Medel Kadletz, the seventh-order sequencer who died with Odin."
"That's right." Ahrens said, "The former principal's career sequence is 'designer', and here is a 'folding space' created by him, and you can enter this folding space by tapping this pillar three times with the key issued by the school." ”
"So, Olibel Lyceum is located in this folded space?"
"Yes, that's the power of a seventh-order designer." "As long as we take this train, we will be able to get to the school park very quickly, and the executive board and the school park are connected." ”
Xia Mingwei was shocked, and said in his heart that such a vast space was actually created by the sequencer? What a grandeur of power does that have to be?
At this time, the sun slowly dips below the horizon, and night envelops the historic station, with the brightly lit trains emitting a warm orange-yellow glow.
With the roar of the engine, Anlens stepped into the orange-yellow glow of the carriage first, put his hands behind his back, and looked back at him:
"Welcome to Olibel Academy, Shamingway."
