35. The conspiracy of the Demon Order
As he browsed, Russell found that students who excelled at making otherworldly objects were concentrated in a few specific majors and grades.
"Herbology", a second-year core course in the Department of Necronsylon and Life, and "Alchemy", a second-year core course in the Department of Transfiguration and Transformation, give students the ability to concoct drugs with supernatural powers.
The third-year professional core course of the Department of Creation and Summoning, whose name is unknown, seems to be related to the ability to create.
Why aren't civil engineering students peddling floating castles online? Won't they build a house? Russell drew inferences in his mind.
"Cloud Charm, Creation and Summoning One-Time Charm, 1.5 Gold Coins."
"Shenxiao Five Thunder Talisman, Elemental and Energy One-Time Talisman, Unopened, 5 Gold Coins."
"Ninety percent of the storage law notes are new, and the auction will start tomorrow, with a starting price of 20 gold coins."
"Girls use the serial explosion scepter for their own use, the price is negotiable, and the psychological estimate is more than 100 college gold coins......"
It's a bit expensive......
Russell felt in his pockets and realized that it was not their problem, but his own.
After Bai's kind sponsorship, Russell's savings reached 14 college gold coins, but he had to prepare for the next year's 30 college gold coins for tuition and textbook fees, which was really shy in his pocket.
Most of the students, backed by witchcraft families and secret organizations, are themselves funders of the Academy. Funding methods include the provision of teachers and money, the provision of extraordinary teaching aids, and the assistance in the construction of magic circles, enchantments, etc.
Upon enrollment, these students will receive a scholarship in College Coins that match the level of funding from the organization they come from. For example, Subway, who comes from the Fang family like Saijia, is not too worried about money.
But students from ordinary families, such as Russell and Kuroba, do not enjoy this bursary, and are undoubtedly the poor class in the college.
If you really can't do it, you can only apply for a student loan, but then you will be burdened with an interest. Russell, who doesn't like debt, doesn't plan to choose this path for the time being.
"Let's take a look at how to sell a few transcendent spirits artificially bred by the academy. Can you contract one? Russell tapped his phone and opened another page.
For the convenience of students, the academy already has a small number of transcendent spirits, and students who are good at psychism can directly spend academy coins to buy them, saving them the trouble of capturing spirits by themselves.
With Russell's current psychic skills, after practicing and devotional for a while, he can barely contract a spirit body.
A few minutes later.
"An ordinary wraith costs 10 House Gold!
"They can rob directly, but they still have to send a resentful spirit as compensation."
After seeing the price of these spirits, Russell directly gave up his plan to buy spirits directly from the school.
In his mind, he briefly skimmed over many of the ways to make money recorded in the International Occult Criminal Law, such as setting fires in the city center to create resentful spirits.
"Forget it, let's find a chance to catch one yourself.
"This kind of adopted spirit is not as obedient as the spirit that you have captured after all!"
Russell plans to wander around the cafeteria every day to see if he can catch a roast duck ghost with a grudge big enough, and if he's lucky, maybe turn it into a ghost.
"Let's take a look at the task section, if there are any tasks out."
Russell continued to look through his phone.
He noticed that the quest board, which was empty a few days ago, has now appeared in the first batch of quests.
Russell immediately noticed a mission announcement with no limit on the number of people to take, and the large letters were completely red.
"Prophecy and intelligence have revealed that the Order of Chaos Red, which is made up of fanatical demon cultists who worship the Demon King, is suspected to have targeted the Academy because of an unknown plan.
"A small number of Demon Cultists may have infiltrated the Academy. The school will conduct a close investigation into this matter in the future!
"Chaos Red is a cult terrorist organization with a bad record, please keep an eye out for any abnormal classmates around you. If you can provide clues about the Demon Cultists.
"Once verified, each clue will reward 1 to 10 House Coins!
"The characteristics of a typical cultist are as follows:
"Article 1: I like to talk highly, I seem to be very knowledgeable, and I know a little bit of knowledge in any field......"
Russell's heart moved, and he suddenly felt that there was a classmate who fit this characteristic very well.
He himself is!
Of course, I'm certainly not a demon. Russell thought.
He is the Prophecy Son who is destined to defeat the Demon King!
"Why did the Order that worships the Demon King infiltrate the Academy?
"I'm destined to defeat the Demon King, will the Demon Order's plan involve me? If it really involves me, then I'm ......."
Russell gasped:
"Isn't it easy for me to get a clue and get a bounty?"
Russell struggled to recall that there were other classmates besides himself who didn't look normal.
Combined with the characteristics of the cult diagram described in the bulletin board, he compared each classmate, and under the temptation of money, he came to a conclusion-
Every student has a question!
For example, the nocturne classmates of the same major are quite abnormal, and their temperament is weird!
After flipping through the task column for a while, and finding that he couldn't find other tasks that he could take, Russell turned off his phone.
He turned off the lights and started a night conversation with Subway, casually asking:
"By the way, Subway, what's your old friend's name?"
Knock knock.
Knock knock.
Before Subway could respond, there was a rhythmic knock on the door outside the dorm room.
Russell rolled over and got out of bed, put on his slippers and walked to the door, looking out through the cat's eye.
Outside the door, it was empty.
Someone knocks on the door but there is no sound?
Russell frowned slightly, remained vigilant, and tapped his eyebrows to turn on his spiritual vision.
In the vision, a headless ghost floats in the air, and blood is constantly leaking out of its neck, which looks especially terrifying.
Russell's hanging heart fell.
Cut, it turned out to be just haunted, what did you think it was......
Ghosts without heads are not uncommon.
Because the appearance of ghosts sometimes symbolizes the cause of their death.
- For example, the ghost of a hairy crab that was steamed alive looks like a ripe red hairy crab with a fragrant nose.
The last time Russell saw the hairy crab ghost, he almost cried.
All kinds of human ghosts with strange ways of dying, Russell has also seen a lot during this time.
What drowned in their own bathtub or fish tank, and what robbed a gun store and was killed.
What impressed Russell the most was a ghost who died unexpectedly because he forgot to bring an umbrella when he went out. It wouldn't have been a big deal - if the guy hadn't been skydiving.
A headless ghost like the one in front of him who was beheaded is not ranked at all in terms of strangeness.
Russell asked outside the door:
"What's the matter? Mr. Ghost – or Madam. Your gender scratches my head. ”
The voice of a headless ghost came back from outside the door, sounding like a woman:
"Miss Nocturne asked you to go downstairs, she wants to see you."
