Chapter 145: There is also a cult nest in the imperial capital? (4k)

In the shade of a large tree in the middle of the dormitory at Hilmy, Rogers was trying to find an excuse to separate from Elias, when Alina brought Valedia to her.

"I know you, the heir of the Devon family, the fiancée of Instructor Rutgers, right?" Elias was the first to smile and greet her, signaling that Alina did not have to observe mundane etiquette in the school.

"Yes." Alina's originally plain expression turned up slightly after hearing these words, forming a shallow arc, and she happily replied.

"When the Imperial Capital newspaper reports on Rutgers's lecturers, they occasionally describe you, especially the scene about the sunset speech......"

As Elias continued, the slight smile that Elina was showing faded away, and her amber eyes squinted at Rogers.

Rogers instantly knew that the other party must have thought of the "grumpy fiancée", and immediately began to put on a look of nothing and not in the moment.

"But the articles published in the Imperial Capital newspaper are always contradictory, and you like to make some smear remarks, and presumably your name for irritability is also the result of being slandered by those writers."

Illia showed a thoughtful expression, then looked at the food basket that Alina was carrying, and then continued to say with certainty:

"But Lecturer Rogers must have said something like that that helped him a lot, so he was adapted by those reporters, right?"

Rogers quietly listened to Elias's reasoning, and couldn't help but sigh that this little princess's brain replenishment ability was really strong, but fortunately, the direction of completion was not bad.

Alina then thanked Elias for her understanding and offered to invite them to a simple lunch.

The four of them sat together under the tree, while Rogers silently nibbled on the pastries that Elina had brought, while Elias took care of most of the conversation.

It wasn't until near the end of the lunch break that Viledja took the initiative to ask a few questions related to the course with the encouragement of Alina's eyes.

After Rogers finished explaining, it was time to continue the lesson.

"Aren't you going back?" After Rogus finished handing out his wand, he looked at Alina beside him and spoke curiously.

"No, it just so happens that I can help you guide these students, and by the way, take care of the state of that dragonborn." Alina shook her head slightly, apparently directly thinking of herself as an assistant lecturer.

Rogers didn't refuse when he heard this, Alina, unlike Alice, who only helped to adjust the atmosphere, did make Rogers a lot more relaxed in an instant.

It was only with Alina's participation that there was a whisper among the first-year students that was difficult to contain.

"That sister is the lecturer's fiancée?! Isn't he chasing a saint?! ”

"Don't! Don't let this kind of thing suddenly break my beautiful illusions! ”

"The aristocracy is like this, maybe this is just the surface, and the lecturer is actually ...... behind the scenes"

“……”

These students may have thought that their words would not reach Rogers' ears at all, but unfortunately, they all underestimated the physique and ability of the Silver Rank.

"There's still too little homework." Rogers calmly swept past the students who were ruining his reputation, and thought to himself after sneering.

The sun is setting in the west, the curtain of dusk is lowered, and the sky and the earth are intoxicated by warm colors.

At the end of the lesson, in addition to the daily assignments, Rogers also gave extra questions to the students who had just been talkative, and after seeing their "gratitude" looks, he returned to the cabin with Alina with satisfaction.

"Do you enjoy teaching them?" Alina looked at Rogers, who was still satisfied, and asked out loud.

"It's okay." Rogers replied ambiguously.

He is mainly feeling the harvest of [Enlightenment Bonus], and he can clearly perceive the great increase in his ability in today's teaching, but when he feels it carefully, he always feels as if there is an indescribable film blocking him, if he can pierce it in one go, he can directly make the bonus evolve.

When Alina saw that Rogus seemed to be thinking about something, she didn't take the initiative to bother.

It wasn't until the two returned to the cabin that the door was shut, and Rogers saw Alina's usual appearance, and immediately knew what the other was thinking.

"Rufia is coming back from class soon......" Rogers admonished as he looked out the window at the sky.

Hearing this, Alina was silent for a while, as if convinced, and then she thought for a moment, and then said, "I will go with you for the harvest day celebration that Princess Elias said." ”

"Okay." Rogers bowed his head without hesitation, even if the other party didn't mention it, he had this idea.

……

On campus, golden leaves fall like raindrops and spread all over the ground, and students paced lightly, rustling under their feet.

In this season of autumn, Rutgers also compiled "Introduction to Spell Magic" into a book in his own name and officially released it.

Some great magicians praised the book as a milestone in the school's foundational work, while others criticized and questioned the book, saying that this trick could become a difficult double-edged sword.

The response from the academic community has varied widely, and different factions have been engaged in increasingly heated exchanges and debates around the contributions, limitations, and harms of the book.

But whether it is praise or criticism, the phrase "Rutgers" has since appeared frequently in various debates.

Overall, the shock and attention it has received make it an unquestionable and influential book.

St. Herthery's professors and deans, who were already very attentive to Rutgers, have since become more and more concerned about Rutgers.

It was also during this time that Rogers, in addition to being a second-year student, officially became the youngest mentor in the history of St. Herthe.

However, he had just won many honors and was about to take off the "little" in the title of "Little Sage", and at this moment he was staring at a large dark brown suitcase in front of him, frowning helplessly.

Not the box to be exact, but Lufia in the open box, who managed to stuff her soft limbs into the box, her knees clenched, her face full of determination.

"You two don't want to leave me behind this time! I have completely completed my public course assignments for this semester and have taken a leave of absence! ”

Rufia's eyes sparkled with unshakable determination, and she was extremely unhappy that Rogers and Alinor had left her for the celebration.

"Actually, it's not impossible, if we follow Princess Elias to the imperial capital, the guards over there won't deliberately check it." Alina looked at Rufia's childish appearance, groaned slightly, and said to Rogers beside her.

Rogers thought about it, it wasn't that he didn't want to take Rufia with him, and that Prince Ray would also go to the celebration, and Rufia would be able to follow her father.

But the trouble was that Rufia didn't want to see her father, or even Prince Rheyd and the nobles of the imperial capital, knowing that she was going to the imperial capital, because it would inevitably bring her endless invitations to banquets and make her suffer from aristocratic etiquette every day.

Rogers also went to the imperial capital as a mentor and scholar of St. Herte, with academic merits, not as the heir of the Breed family.

This kind of style is also his tacit understanding with the royal family.

"Then you're going to have to be obedient, and you're going to have to stay in the box for a long time, are you sure you want to do that?" Rogers didn't blindly refuse after seeing Alina's guarantor.

"I promise!" Rufia nodded her head very dryly.

Rogers said no more, but simply fastened the metal of the box, poked a few holes in the suitcase, and carved an inscription with a spell to prevent detection and concealment.

"It's so light, it's so edible."

He shook his handle slightly, feeling the weight of the suitcase.

"Let's go quickly, I'll be late if it's any later." Alina urged.

In a short time, several people quickly climbed the milky white tower on the north side of St. Herte, and in addition to Princess Elias, who had been waiting here for a long time, Alice was also standing beside her.

"If you feel that you will be tired, you can leave it to me then." Alice looked at the large suitcase in Rogers' hand and was slightly stunned at first, and then said suddenly.

"Okay, if you're really tired." Rogers smiled, he could hear the meaning behind Alice's words.

As the few people were ready, there was a slight hum on the ground, and the teleportation array began to release dazzling light, and the surrounding air seemed to vibrate due to the surge of energy.

Rogers could clearly feel that the teleportation array going to the imperial capital was completely different from the one he had gone to elsewhere before.

When the dazzling light dissipated, he immediately saw the autumn earth intertwined with gold and red, and large golden ears of rice swaying gently in the breeze in the distance.

He had expected the same guarded fortress to stand around the portal tower, but all he saw was a field as far as the eye could see.

Before they could wait too long, the guard of honor, who arranged and directed the guard of honor, and the welcoming officer, who was responsible for organizing and coordinating the ceremony, came to greet them.

Rogers refused to help him carry his luggage, and with the attendants leading and surrounded, he boarded a rather luxurious carriage alone, with several issues of the latest Imperial Capital Newspaper next to his seat.

The greeter gave him and Alina a few options, asking them where they wanted to rest for a while, and after looking at many options, Rogus finally chose the Wizard's Mansion in the Imperial Capital.

At this time, the carriage was on the outskirts of the imperial capital, and if it drove normally, it would take a long time.

"Every time Alice meets the Emperor, she is rewarded with a lot of good resources, and I don't know if His Majesty the Emperor can be so generous to me."

Rogers thought to himself, and casually spread out a newspaper to find that it was carrying the news that he was going to travel to the imperial capital.

At the same time, it also recounts the situation that scholars and magicians from all walks of life have been flocking to the imperial capital in recent days because of his arrival.

Since Rogers delivered his sunset speech last semester, his influence in various academic circles has evolved over time to the point where he cannot easily estimate it, and this great migration of scholars from all walks of life with him is a good example.

[Inform! The quest "Clean Up the Filth" has been released. 】

[Name:Removal of filth]

【Publisher:Gods of the Bottomless Pit】

[Contents: When you go to the Imperial Capital, please help the devout believers to sacrifice the creations of the wicked people of the Discord Abyss to the great bottomless pit.] 】

【Reward: Subject to availability】

[Punishment: None]

[Note: The gods of the bottomless pit expect you to complete a wonderful sacrifice.] 】

【Please select whether or not to accept it】

Looking at the pop-up and familiar prompt box in front of him, Rogers was suddenly stunned.

This is not the southern border, but the imperial capital!

What kind of cultist can run around under the emperor's nose? And look at this situation, there are bottomless pits and disordered abysses?

Although Rutgers knows very well that the emperor is the largest and most populous city in the empire, and he also understands that the emperor is not omnipotent after all, but the believers of the bottomless pit and the abyss of disorder are fighting in the imperial capital, how can they say that it is a bit too weird, right?!

Could it be that the veil of the world has weakened? Judging from the fact that the gods can appear in the later stages of the game, with the aggravation of disasters and various crises in the present world, the ability of the gods to influence the present world is getting stronger and stronger.

According to the progress, it is still far from the late stage.

Contemplating this strange situation, he summoned the magic book, arranged a simple barrier in the carriage, and then tapped the suitcase to undo a metal buckle.

Rufia cautiously poked her head out of the opening of the suitcase, and then slowly lifted her head a little, quickly inhaling a large breath of fresh air to relieve her previous suffocation.

"Do you know much about the imperial capital?" Rogus asked as he reached out and gently stroked Rufia's soft blonde hair.

"Of course, you can ask me what you want to eat or play." Rufia's eyes closed slightly, showing a look of enjoyment and relief, and she replied very firmly.

Rogers suddenly felt that it might not only be troublesome for Rufia to follow, because of the last ceremony, Alina's ability to predict events related to her was getting weaker and weaker.

This is especially true for missions, which are not treasure hunts, but require their own leadership and participation, and may not provide as much detailed information as they used to be.

Rufia was just able to make up for the information about the imperial capital a little.

However, Rogers only wanted to get a general idea of the specifics of this mission, and did not intend to accept it directly as he had done in the past.

Although the more dangerous the task, the greater the reward given by the gods, it is still too dangerous to do things in the imperial capital.

In case the expensive fish is not caught, if you are photographed by the wind and waves first, it will be too much to lose.
