328. I have a bold idea
The sudden bad news made the air in the field a little lighter, and it became extremely dignified again, like substance, as if the end had come, and it weighed heavily on everyone's hearts.
Even the faces of the three professors were becoming extremely ugly......
The three of them glanced at each other, all of them inquiring.
But he immediately lowered his head again, and carefully examined the data, hoping that the researcher below had made a mistake.
However, it was not, but it was the initial prediction of the storm's path that was wrong......
Fortunately, the three professors were not startled like the others, crying for their fathers and mothers, but thought quickly and thought about the next countermeasures.
"We must contact the dean immediately and inform everyone to evacuate as soon as possible, with the equipment we have attached, we should be able to save some ......"
Professor Albert was the first to come up with his proposal.
Then, the dean's voice came directly in the ears of the three of them:
"I'm already here, let's talk about the situation."
Professor Pierce replied:
"Very badly, the scale of this space storm is far beyond what has been recorded in history, and it is also far beyond the capacity of the Academy, and it is still showing a gradual tendency to increase, and if it were to make landfall, the consequences would be unimaginable......
I don't agree with Albert's idea, that's impossible, even if you use all your failed works, you won't be able to bring many people, let alone escape, and with the intensity of this storm, your toys will only be torn to shreds like scraps of paper in a hurricane! ”
"You don't agree, so what do you think?"
Professor Albert, who was stunned, immediately asked rhetorically.
"Use those level 0 holy relics, I remember that the dean still has a few pieces at the bottom of the box, especially the 0-005 one, it should be able to solve it."
Professor Pierce suggested.
But in exchange for the dean's rather helpless answer:
"I'm sorry, this idea, Lawrence came up with it earlier, and unfortunately, 0-005 can't do that unless...... Some of you can understand the heart and nature of the storm......"
"Core vs. essence? How is this possible? ”
"So...... Let's hear what Lawrence has to say, right? ”
The dean retracted and suggested.
Professor Lawrence, on the other hand, thought about it for a while with a frown, and then came up with his plan:
"Gather everyone in the central area where the Knowledge Square is located, and then loosen the spatial anchors in the other areas......"
Before he could finish his words, the other two professors almost jumped up and hurriedly questioned:
"I think you're really crazy! Loosening the spatial anchor in the middle of a storm? Do you want the academy to be crushed straight into powder? ”
"Have you forgotten the role of space anchors? Or are you unsure of what happens when you let go of them? You dare to even move this? ”
When questioned by his colleagues, Professor Lawrence smiled and did not deny it directly.
"Maybe I'm crazy, right? But in the face of this crazy storm, only crazy plans can find a ray of life for us! ”
As he spoke, he pulled the light curtain in front of him in front of the three of them, and on it was a sketchy plan.
Professor Pierce looked at it and immediately showed an annoyed expression, patting his chest and smacking his feet, and asked:
"Huh? Loosen the spatial anchor and let the other areas become the barriers of the central area? How can you come up with such a crazy scheme? ”
Professor Lawrence's plan compares the entire Mizkatok to a series of balloons tethered to each other, and when the storm comes, the ropes that connect the balloons are severed, leaving them isolated.
It seems like a stupid and suicidal solution.
But Professor Albert did not immediately refute it, but checked the data, and then said:
"It's crazy, but it's not entirely impossible, and it's certainly feasible to create a spatial distraction at the expense of other school districts that would weaken the power of the storm or deflect the path, and we can also focus our current resources on the central area......"
With that, he stretched out his hand and tapped twice on the light curtain, and continued to add:
"However, to do so would mean giving up the other school districts, and the various documents, equipment, treasures, and countless riches that have been accumulated over the years, and the space in which the college can stand is only a small piece of the central district, which is basically equivalent to the existence of the name......
And it's not a 100% safe solution, it's likely that the collision of other school districts will make the storm more intense, or some other bad situation, making everything worse; At the same time, even if the central area can be preserved, there is a high probability that it will be 'blown away', and it will be lost in another dimension, and there will be no way back to the present world......"
After Professor Albert's analysis, the dean also roughly understood the current situation and briefly summarized it:
"In other words, we are either resigned to fate and wait for the academy to be completely destroyed; Or fight to the death in search of that slim hope, and an even more difficult future? ”
"That's probably it, but even so, it's our only chance to live."
Professor Lawrence replied in a low voice.
The dean no longer had any doubts, and said directly:
"Okay, then follow your plan and leave it to you."
"But ......"
"Nothing good is good, as long as we survive, Mizkatok will not die, no matter how bad the situation is, it is better than it was back then......
The dean said, with a somewhat helpless wry smile in his tone:
"We human beings are so small, we will be extremely fragile and powerless in the face of this kind of thing, but no matter how small we are, we should not be so humble as to give up hope!"
So with the Dean's decision, Professor Lawrence's crazy plan was carried out, and the whole Mizcatok suddenly fell into a chaotic chaos.
All the students were running wildly, carrying as many valuables as they could, and fled to the Knowledge Square.
Fortunately, it is still a holiday, the new school year has not yet begun, and there are not many teachers and students stranded in the academy, only a few thousand, and the spacious enough knowledge square can still accommodate it.
But chaos and despair inevitably spread among the crowd, and intensified, so that all kinds of cries, wails, angry curses, and last words wafted in the usually quiet square of knowledge.
"I just found a girlfriend, and I haven't even signed a hand!"
"I still have a wife and children at home, and an elderly mother, I ...... What am I going to do? ”
"I'm only in the first grade, I haven't learned anything, I'm going to die?"
"Let's do something we wouldn't normally dare to do, shall we? lest you die and leave regrets. ”
"Haha, whatever, let's destroy, I just don't have to pay the mortgage, hahaha."
"Also, I finally don't have to worry about tuition fees and ratings anymore, and I can finally take a break."
Lloyd's little milk cat hid in a corner with his new friend, Little Fragrant Pig, watching the humans in confusion as they showed their diversity, but did not look terrified.
On the contrary, it was the little fragrant pig, trembling vigorously, and kept humming and chirping, as if asking why you are not afraid?
"Meow Meow ......"
The little milk cat responded with two sentences, as if to express that the owner would come back to save me.
"Hmph~Hmph~"
The little fragrant pig asked it again, where is your master?
"Meow meow!"
The little milk cat raised its little paws at the academy sky, and then raised its round head and stared at the sky.
It believed that its master would return soon.
And the whole Mizkatok is probably the only one who believes in this......
……………………
"What? Lloyd and two instructors and a teaching assistant are missing? ”
Professor Lawrence was in full swing controlling the space anchor of the academy on the instrument, but he was taken aback by this news, and his hands were a little messy, almost causing a tragedy.
But fortunately, he regained his composure in an instant, quickly made up for it, and continued to operate while listening to Researcher Dandy's report:
"Yes, everyone else is still alive, but Lloyd and the other four have not returned...... According to the lecturer of the mage department, he insisted on trying to get everyone back, so he didn't evacuate together, but went back to save people on his own......
"This idiot who likes to be heroes is really not a human being, and he doesn't even have this instinct to seek advantage and avoid harm!"
Professor Lawrence cursed angrily.
No matter how sorry and sad he felt in his heart, he did not delay the operation in his hand for a moment because of Lloyd's death, and commanded again:
"Okay, tell the dean the news, and then go back to your post."
After that, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and secretly sighed:
Maybe that kid was just a few steps ahead of us......
Then, he turned his head to look at the light curtain next to him.
The speed of the space storm is gradually increasing and will arrive in about ten minutes.
But there are only three school districts that have unlocked the space anchor and are ready to go for the impact......
Therefore, we must untie the spatial anchor of more school districts as soon as possible, and then release them one by one, without any delay.
The two or three seconds of grieving for Lloyd were already the greatest selfishness Professor Lawrence could have done......
Soon, Dean Hazled, also in an empty office, received news of Lloyd's death.
His invisible body was silent for two or three minutes before he sighed helplessly.
"Hiltina, maybe we're on the wrong path...... The [prophecy] that Astra received is still being fulfilled one by one......"
"I remember a little part of it - 'Humans will lose their wisdom in the storm', which seems to be referring to today, right?"
"In order to fight against the fate of the [Prophecy], we ventured to excavate the [Miracle] of the past, and the old school district that lost the [Miracle] set off this devastating storm......"
"Maybe it's the price of the miracle that we touched, or maybe it's the price that the previous dean didn't pay back then......"
"But if Lawrence's plan succeeds, will it break that fate?"
"No...... Maybe it's just the link corresponding to that sentence, and it doesn't refer to today's ......"
"We may be rescued today, but we will be lost forever in another dimension until the moment when the prophecy is fulfilled......"
The dean muttered to himself, and then picked up a page of quaint yellowed parchment from his desk.
The page looked very inconspicuous, and it was even more blank, and there was nothing.
But just by looking at the corners, mental pollution will come to your face.
The powerful but strange spirituality exuded from it made the air in the office gradually thicken, indicating that the content of spiritual pollution was rising rapidly and gradually condensed into substance.
But Dean Hazleder had to pick up the quill, hesitating to write something on the parchment.
That may not be useful, and it may not be able to fight a space storm, but it is always better than sitting still.
Perhaps it is more rational and wise to give up and leave this incomparably dangerous but incomparably precious piece of parchment to future generations?
This may be the key for others to break the prophecy and destiny......
So no matter what others say, Hazleder is reluctant to use the parchment, which the professors call '0-005'.
But let him do nothing, sit back and watch the Mizkatok that he has worked so hard to do, and it is really difficult to make the most rational choice in his heart.
And just when Dean Hazlede was still hesitating, he suddenly noticed some changes in the space in the office.
It hurriedly waved its hand on the parchment, hiding it as if by magic.
Then I saw a crack open in the air, revealing a portal.
This made the dean very puzzled, at such a critical juncture, would anyone from the space department come to him?
But then, it saw three unconscious people being thrown out of the portal and landing in what looked like a dueling arena.
Then Lloyd walked out while tidying up his appearance, and was stunned again, and asked with a surprised face:
"What the hell? What is this place? ”
Dean Hazleder froze in place.
He just let himself accept the death of this kid, and the next second he came out?
Was it intentional or accidental?
Also, how did he escape from such a terrible space storm?
Is he really like Hiltina says he never disappoints?
The dean had to admit that he had lived for so long, but few people could make himself so confused.
Fortunately, he didn't have a deep dabble in spatial knowledge, but only knew a little basic, so he didn't establish any deep-rooted cognitive concepts.
Otherwise, Lloyd is afraid that he will have to 'deceive the teacher and destroy the ancestors' on the spot......
At present, the dean was only surprised and surprised by Lloyd's sudden appearance, and felt that he was able to escape from the space storm, which seemed very miraculous and incredible, and had not yet risen to the point of cognitive damage and rational collapse.
And Lloyd didn't notice the existence of the dean at this time, and after looking around, he said helplessly:
"Why don't you even have a door here? How am I going to get out? Hey? Wait a minute! Why did the storm outside get stronger again? Will the academy still hold on? ”
Seeing this, Dean Hazlede hurriedly reached out and waved it in the air in front of him, as if he had opened a window.
Lloyd's inspiration realized its existence and quickly turned around.
"Professor Hazled? You're there? What the hell is this place? Are you distorting my perception again? ”
"No, this is my office ......"
"Huh? It turns out that our warp department is not poor enough to only have that legendary tower on campus? ”
"Okay, okay, now isn't the time to talk about this, you wait first, I'll lay the groundwork for Lawrence's side......"
The dean hurriedly said again.
It was clear that Lloyd couldn't make small talk to himself here at the moment, but should let him go to Lawrence's side right away.
But if he is directly allowed to pass like this, I'm afraid Lawrence's cognition will not be able to hold up......
So the dean took the lead and contacted the space department in a special way.
"What's wrong?"
Professor Lawrence's unangry voice came directly through the air, like a phone call on speakerphone, and Lloyd could hear it.
The dean said to Professor Lawrence in front of him:
"Hmm...... I contacted you just to say, is it possible for Lloyd to still be alive? ”
"What do you want to do with these things now? I'm too busy to grieve for anyone. ”
"But what if he's really alive?"
"That's useless, I'll just give him a hard lesson."
Professor Lawrence replied subconsciously.
"Well, that's good, I'll let him come to you."
"Ah???h
Professor Lawrence's voice paused, and then hurriedly asked:
"You don't want to say that kid is really alive, do you?"
"He'll be coming right away."
The dean said perfunctorily, then cut off contact, and said to Lloyd:
"You don't need me to explain too much, you can sense that the academy is in crisis, right?"
"Hmm...... Okay? Can be a little tricky? But it should be able to handle it, right? ”
Lloyd has been paying close attention to the situation of the space storm, and by the way, he also checked the 'defense' of the academy, and found that if he didn't do something, he was afraid that it would be enough to choke......
However, before he came back, he considered that the academy might be damaged in the storm, so he rushed back.
"You think you can handle it?"
Dean Hazled's side hurriedly asked.
"It should be possible, but it needs to be assisted by some space equipment, such as that kind of space elevator."
Lloyd replied.
He had already come up with a quick idea.
If it is operated properly, it can not only resolve the crisis of the academy, but also get a lot of benefits for itself by the way, as well as an extremely powerful weapon-
He had an extremely crazy idea, wanting to use [Spatial Domination] to take this invincible space storm for himself!
"Sure enough, you really won't disappoint, that's good, that's good! Go find Lawrence, the equipment of the entire space department is yours, as long as you can protect the academy, I will give you whatever you want in the future, even Hiltina! ”
The dean said hurriedly, and he was ready to use a little of his dean privilege to open a portal for Lloyd to go back to the space department.
Who knew that Lloyd just waved his hand very casually, and opened the door himself.
"Then I'll go over first, and the three of them will ask you to take care of it."
With that, Lloyd passed through the portal, leaving the dean alone in place.
After about a few minutes, it burst into laughter:
"It seems that we made the right choice."
"Fuck your fate and prophecy!"
