312. Small projects of the Department of History
Lloyd continued to look at the message, and the more he looked at it, the more he couldn't laugh or cry.
These people really regard their own warped towers as 'campus legends'?
Even if the key is misunderstood, why is the direction of this misunderstanding getting weirder and weirder? Getting off track?
In fact, the original poster of this message only expressed surprise at this kind of 'tower in the corner', feeling weird and mysterious, and the excitement of witnessing the 'campus legend' was expressed between the lines.
Instead, the following replies began to talk nonsense:
"Wow? I've heard that anyone who sees this tower will suffer misfortune. It seems that it will inexplicably go the wrong way; I can't pass the exam; Do you make all sorts of low-level mistakes while working on a project or something? You'll have to be careful. ”
"I've also heard that it is said that the most outrageous one is to treat the street lamp as a beautiful and cute elementary school girl, and she knelt down on the spot to confess her ......"
"Not only that, there is a senior in our biology department, once he got lost, and he accidentally approached this tower, and then he was directly sent to the psychiatric hospital, and he lay in it for more than half a year before he barely recovered!"
"Yes, yes, I've heard about it too, and when that senior came out, he kept silent about what was in it, and he didn't open his mouth no matter who asked...... I can't imagine what a terrible thing he saw? ”
"Could it be...... Some kind of high-level mysterious existence? ”
"Most likely, I'm from the Department of Occultism, and I'm currently studying divination, and our professor specifically told me not to be curious about that tower, and don't tell what is in it!"
"Wow? Why does it become more terrifying the more you say it? There's no real man-eating fangs in there, right? ”
"If it's just cannibalism, that's probably fine...... I've heard that tower can destroy the whole of Mizkatok! ”
Anyway, that's it, as the following replies become more and more, all kinds of speculations and brain supplements become more and more outrageous, and they are getting farther and farther away from the truth, becoming all kinds of 'great horrors', 'unspeakable', 'unspeakable, unseeable, unthinkable, and undirect'.
The point is just to discuss the tower, and then to the back, how did Lloyd find himself lying down and was shot?
"I tell you quietly, I saw a boy come out of that tower this morning!"
"What? Someone ran in again who was not afraid of death? ”
"No, no, no, it doesn't seem to be like this, I haven't seen that boy, the armband looks brand new, and there is no etching on it, indicating that it should be a real freshman who has just entered the school, but you think about it, the new school year has not started yet, where are the freshmen from?"
"Hey~ Listen to what you said, could it be that the thing in the tower disguised itself as a human and blended into us?"
"Wouldn't it? If it has the intention to harm others, isn't it impossible to prevent it? Will you secretly attack a lone student? Eat them? ”
"Tell me what that boy looks like? What are the characteristics? ”
"It seems to be quite handsome, a rare handsome guy, but this is meaningless! Since the things in there can be disguised as humans, they must be able to change their appearance at will, so it's not good...... Will it become someone you know? ”
"This ...... What should I do? Could it be that my roommate will no longer be my roommate one day? Will he suddenly eat me someday? ”
"I ...... I seem to have heard similar stories about an evil monster that will take the form of the person it has eaten, and that guy may eat you, and then become your like, and continue to eat your friends and even relatives! ”
"Wow! Don't talk about it! The more you talk about it, the more scary it gets! ”
"Woooooooooo......oo You guys are going too far! I'll never watch the story zone again! ”
And then the discussion turned into a bunch of people guessing what kind of monster was the image of that handsome boy? What's the way? What does the ontology look like?
Anyway, all kinds of hearsay stories, what monsters can be disguised, what extra students, what relatives who suddenly resurrected......
As for the specific image, it has also evolved from a handsome boy at the beginning to a big monster with a 'face like cinnabar', 'eyes like copper bells', and 'mouth like a blood basin', which is to eat people and eat people! Changing tricks to eat people!
Lloyd couldn't complain.
Why can't you get along with cannibalism?
I haven't eaten it myself, but it doesn't taste good no matter what humans think, right?
Although I am a good cook, I really haven't studied how to behave, have I?
Don't look at it, don't look at it.
Lloyd shook his head and closed the student handbook.
However, through such a 'misunderstanding', he realized that even with such a convenient student handbook, the efficiency of information circulation here in Mitzkatok is not as efficient as he imagined.
When I first entered the college, there were many onlookers around me, but no one stood up to refute the rumors, proving that there were normal freshmen who had recently enrolled in the school.
The few classmates I met newly, no one came out to help explain......
Maybe it's because not everyone likes to read the 'message board', and not everyone likes to watch the 'story area', right?
As for the 'teaching building' of the Twisted Department, it has been rumored to be unrecognizable......
But because there are no students in the distortion department, naturally there is no one to help refute the rumors......
Forget it, just pass it on, and don't scare yourself so much that you can't sleep.
Lloyd sneered, and then ran to take a shower, intending to go to bed early.
Speaking of which, I lived alone tonight, and she was a 'childhood sweetheart' and didn't come......
And there is no way to [sneak] to Elolo's side, so he can only sleep alone......
Somehow, Lloyd suddenly felt a little lonely in his heart.
Then the next second, he felt that there was one more person around him.
"Wow!!"
Lloyd was also somewhat affected by the nonsense of those people before him, and he was so frightened that he almost jumped.
Fortunately, take a closer look, it's your own 'childhood sweetheart'?
Although there is still no substance, I can feel the familiar gentle temperament and sweet smell on her body, as if she has fallen asleep.
Belch...... How did she get bolder? Are you running to your own bed?
I dare to do this now, and I dare not think about what I will dare to do in the future......
But as the saying goes, it's coming, and Lloyd naturally can't drive others out of bed.
And this bed is also very wide, so it doesn't look cramped for two people to roll on it.
After all, it's a 'childhood sweetheart', and sleeping in a bed doesn't seem to be a big deal?
Of course, there is nothing else to do but sleep......
Lloyd was thinking wildly in his head, and his emotions gradually calmed down, so he lay down again, and whispered again:
"Good night."
He didn't wait for a response, but felt a fragrant and soft delicate body rubbing against him.
In fact, there is not much charm and ambiguity, but more like a kind of 'natural' and 'natural' atmosphere.
This atmosphere made Lloyd feel an inexplicable sense of relief, and he fell asleep peacefully.
……………………
By the next morning, Lloyd was woken up punctually by the biological clock, and began his routine in Mizkatok.
First of all, I went back to the [Thinking Domain] to get today's madness value, and after upgrading, I added 5 attributes to [Rationality], and directly pushed [Rationality] to 300 points, bringing a solid sense of security.
Then I wanted to rub the little milk cat on the pillow before I woke up, so I grabbed it and wiped my face.
As a result, the little milk cat suddenly woke up, and with a leap of arrows, she pounced on Lloyd's head and rubbed his face.
Belch...... How does it feel like it's being used to wipe your face by a little milk cat?
Has it also learned to take the initiative?
After that, Lloyd took the little milk cat to exercise in the morning, and then made some breakfast casually, and was ready to start today's study.
It's just that there is no link to comb his sister's hair, which makes his heart empty......
Just then, the student handbook vibrated and came with a message from Professor Lawrence:
"Awake? When you wake up, you should come to the lab, you should know the coordinates, right? ”
Lloyd felt that there should have been some kind of tacit understanding between Professor Lawrence and Professor Hartsled? Although it seems that there is no clear timetable, Professor Lawrence did not contact him yesterday, indicating that they will contact him by one day apart.
He replied:
"Okay, I'll be there soon."
The last time I calculated the coordinates of the Knowledge Square in the laboratory, because the spatial nature of the laboratory was very special, Lloyd calculated the coordinates of the laboratory by the way, and now it will be easy to use the results of the last time.
Before leaving, Lloyd said to the little milk cat:
"I'm leaving, take care of the house...... By the way, you can also invite your new friends to play at home. ”
He still remembers the round little fragrant pig yesterday, very cute.
With that, he passed through the portal and made his way to the lab with unmistakable precision.
Compared to the day before yesterday, there were two more researchers here, and when they saw Lloyd coming in, they took the initiative to nod at him, which was regarded as saying hello.
"Early~"
Lloyd also responded politely, and then found that there was an extra professor he didn't know next to Professor Lawrence-
The professor's dress looked a little ...... Dusty? Just dressed for adventure, hunting suits, boots, waterproof hats, etc. are all alive.
If it weren't for the fact that he had a lavalier pinned to his collar that only professor-level people could wear, Lloyd would have almost thought it was an adventurer that Professor Lawrence had rescued from the monster's mouth.
The two professors were chatting in a low voice, and when he saw Lloyd appear, Professor Lawrence raised his chin and asked:
"How? That's the guy I recommend, not bad, right? ”
Lloyd immediately felt the adventurer-like professor, first glanced at his armband, then at his lavalier, and then said with a smile:
"You recommend a freshman for me? Even if he wears an honor student collar, he is still a freshman! ”
"What's wrong with the freshmen? Didn't you say it was safe yourself? I just want him to see the world. ”
"Huh? Wait a minute! How do you recruit new students in your space department? ”
"Don't care about such trivial matters, I've managed to convince the dean anyway...... Anyway, as you can see, I'm doing a routine rotation here, and that's all there is to it, so either you take him with you, or you wait? ”
"Uh...... Let me think about it and deliberate. ”
The adventurer professor said, closing his eyes on the spot and posing as if he was dozing.
Professor Lawrence was not idle, and turned to Lloyd:
"How did you read those books?"
"Hmm...... Some are esoteric, some are obscure......"
Lloyd replied truthfully, hesitating to tell the professor that it had taken him two days and had read only two-thirds of the first book.
Let's not talk about it, the efficiency is so low, it feels embarrassing......
Professor Lawrence, however, was very reasonable, and continued:
"Slow is normal, even the basics are as obscure as you said, otherwise our space department wouldn't require third-year students to join...... So I arranged a hands-on project for you. ”
As he spoke, he glanced at the adventurer professor next to him, who had not yet woken up and was still 'dozing'.
"They're all like this, and they can only communicate remotely in this inefficient way, but they claim to be safe."
Professor Lawrence smiled dismissively and helped explain.
Lloyd pointed to his nose and asked in surprise:
"A project in the Department of History? I? ”
"yes, you should have noticed, right? Mizkatok has many school districts, but there are many more danger zones. ”
Lloyd nodded.
In the past two days, he has learned a lot about Mizcatok and the history department here by wandering around and reading the student handbook.
Although the school districts here seem to be independent spaces with no direct physical connection to each other, if all the school districts are added up, the area should not be smaller than the south district of the bright city.
A college the size of a city district, that's already a very exaggerated scale.
But that's not all, there are larger 'danger zones' in addition to these existing school districts, also known by some students as 'historical zones' and 'archaeological zones'.
If you add up all these areas, the size of Mizkatok is probably not inferior to the Shining City.
These danger zones were once the territory of the Academy, but as the end came, Mizkatok did not end well, and also experienced a terrible catastrophe, and the entire Academy was almost destroyed overnight.
After all, in that glorious era, Mizkatok was just as brilliant, and the vast amount of knowledge that was preserved became the most ferocious poison......
Fortunately, the academy survived in the end, and then tinkered all the way back to its current size.
And in those dangerous areas that could not be rescued, there are still a large number of treasures of the former civilization, waiting for future generations to discover.
Mizkatok's history department is dedicated to this.
Of course, there are also all kinds of unknown dangers and horrors......
