Chapter 30: Set Goals
After some hard work, Ke Zhenxi chose the ideal course without any danger, Monday to Friday are: "Fundamentals of Spells" for one year, "Mana Operation" for one year, "Wine Swordsmanship" for three years, "Summoning" for five years, and "Goblin Throwing" for two years.
On the first day of school, at six o'clock in the morning, Ke Zhenxi was eating breakfast at the "Endeavour Restaurant" of the Lorin Royal Spelling School, and at the same table were Casillos de Gaulle and Noah Gate Xinghua, the two classmates he was most familiar with during this time, and the only two friends he had at present.
Although the tuition income of the Lorin Royal Spell School is not low, it is still impossible to maintain the school's balance on tuition alone. The school's biggest source of income is various business incomes, among which the most profitable is the catering industry.
There are a total of eight cafeterias in the school, such as the "Bright Star" restaurant, which is mainly for wealthy students, where the cost of a meal can exceed the cost of food in the "Endeavor Restaurant" for a year.
In this school, there are many rich businessmen and tycoons, and they will not spare this money at all.
Of course, the "Bright Star" is only ranked second, and the "Starry Sky" restaurant is the most luxurious dining place in the school, and only teachers and students who have paid an annual membership fee of 1,000 gold coins can enter the restaurant. There, every dish is made by a famous teacher, and the environment inside is even more high-end and luxurious, with all the tableware made of silver, and countless precious jewels on the decorations. There are also cabaret performances, some explicit and vulgar, some elegant and gorgeous, and the people who dine there are the real superior people from high society.
There are expensive ones, there are cheap ones, and the "Endeavor Restaurant", the lowest grade of the Luoling Royal Spell School, has attracted many poor students with its low prices. Because of the school's subsidy, prices are cheaper than most restaurants in the city.
Ke Zhenxi came here to eat because of this cheap price, and with his current economic level, he can't enjoy a luxurious life.
"Why did you get here so early? The opening ceremony didn't start until nine o'clock. Ke Zhenxi chewed on the dry and hard rye bread in his mouth and took a sip of hot goat's milk mixed with water. After taking a sip of this milk, he knew that it was not hot goat's milk mixed with water, but hot water mixed with milk.
Normally, Monday is 9 a.m., but since it is the first day of school, the morning arrangement has been changed to the opening ceremony, and all teachers and students of the school must gather at Qingxing Square to attend the ceremony.
"Huh...... By the tacit knowledge, there is nothing left for breakfast at eight o'clock in Endeavour, how could I not know?" replied de Gaulle with a smile, and took a sip of goat's milk.
After a few days of exchanges, Ke Zhenxi also has a general understanding of De Gaulle.
The de Gaulle family opened a tavern in the capital of the Kingdom of France, the city of Pali, and had a modest income. He also helped in the tavern, came into contact with all kinds of people from the north and south, and heard a lot of strange things.
He had always dreamed of becoming a magician, but his family had ten siblings, so life was struggling, and his parents did not approve of him studying spells, believing that he was not the material. So he could only work while saving money and teaching himself spells. Finally, this year, with the help of his self-taught fireball technique, he persuaded his parents to come to Lorling City with the more than thirty gold coins he had accumulated to start his dream journey.
Now Ke Zhenxi admired De Gaulle, who worked hard for his dreams, he looked at Xinghua again, and asked curiously, "Why did you come to the cafeteria to eat?"
He thinks that even if Xinghua is abused, he won't want to come to school for a cheap breakfast, right? He knows that Xinghua doesn't live in a dormitory, so he can eat breakfast at home.
Xinghua smiled shyly and did not speak.
"She met me while hanging out at school. De Gaulle casually explained the question, "By the way, congratulations on taking the course of "Summoning", if you can learn this spell, you will have a bright future after graduation." The seniors of your "Summoning" class will graduate with at least intermediate spell books, without exception. ”
When Ke Zhenxi heard this, he was happy and said, "So, I will be at least an intermediate mage in the future?"
"I'm sure you can't be an exception. You're famous now, and many people know that there is a first-year student who can take classes with Floya, and it is Yuniel who teaches the class. De Gaulle made no secret of his envy.
When Ke Zhenxi heard this, he was very proud in his heart, and couldn't help laughing, he said, "By the way, is the Wednesday's "Six Dragons Returning to the Sun" you reported amazing?"
"I heard that it's very handsome, as for whether it's powerful or not, it's still the same sentence, there is no most powerful spell, only the most powerful magician, and any spell is powerful after learning it, including my Friday's "Levitation Technique", which is also very powerful when used well. ”
De Gaulle said as he ate a limited amount of grilled sausage, and he looked up at the spell screen on the wall, which was scrolling through the contents of the Daily Lorring.
"You see, the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, Churchill-Teller, wants to unite the central countries to prepare for a military threat from the League of Nations, and there has been news about the provocations of the League of Nations lately, is there really going to be a war?" De Gaulle was interested in all kinds of intelligence news.
"Is the League of Nations so belligerent?" Ke Zhenxi also saw in the newspapers every day news such as the League of Nations troops crossing the border to massacre villages, soldiers posing as bandits to rob caravans, and the League of Nations sending assassinations of diplomats, "Look at the screen, the Consul General of St. Starlight City in the Netherlands, Delido Labor, also condemned the League of Nations, and said that he did not rule out the possibility of sending troops. ”
Speaking of this, Ke Zhenxi glanced at Xinghua, and he knew that this Delido-Laobu was the father of Xinghua and Lawrence.
"Ten years after the end of the 'Three Years' War, the League of Nations countries and the rest of the West have been at peace, and I don't know what happened recently. De Gaulle was eating grilled sausages while commenting on national events.
Xinghua silently listened to the conversation between the two and drank oatmeal. Although the food here is nowhere near as delicious as at home, if she had to choose, she would always choose to eat here. Here, she doesn't have to worry about the scolding of those people in the Delido family, and she doesn't have to endure their oppression, these two classmates give her a warm feeling that she hasn't felt for a long time.
"Xinghua, your classes on Wednesday and Friday are "Fundamentals of Healing Spells" and "Levitation Technique", right?" Ke Zhenxi saw that Xinghua was silent and took the initiative to talk to her. In fact, what he really likes is the limited grilled sausage on Xinghua's plate.
"Well, I'm glad to be able to take "Summoning" with Martin on Thursday and "Levitation" with Cassiros on Friday. A happy smile appeared on Xinghua's fair face.
"Just call us by our first name, we are good friends. If there is anything in the future, I need to take care of it. De Gaulle also said, and pointed to Xinghua's plate with a fork, "Why don't you eat this limited amount of grilled sausages?" It tastes good, but unfortunately you can only buy one per person." ”
"I've already hugged it, do you want to eat? Xinghua asked softly, pushing the plate forward.
Before de Gaulle could speak, Ke Zhenxi hurriedly took the lead, forked the roasted sausage with a fork, and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Then I'll eat it for you, or it'll be wasted. Ke Zhenxi chewed on the roasted sausage, and his tone seemed as if he had done Xinghua a great favor.
De Gaulle, on the side, was full of regret and knew that he would have struck first.
At this moment, the two men in white staff uniforms who were in charge of cooking at the restaurant were communicating in a low voice.
"How's it going?" asked the handsome middle-aged man, the grace of his gestures that seemed out of place with the work he was doing. No one would have thought that this man with a white canteen staff hat would be a Sagittarius gold god warrior, Charon.
"The soul detector has to be close to have an effect, and I need to check them one by one. The young gray-haired man replied, "Uncle Rooney is trying to find a way to get together the materials needed for the soul transfer, and we can't buy them all in one store, as that would attract the attention of those who are secretly investigating us." ”
"We must reincarnate the goddess as soon as possible, and the minions of Gregory's dog thief will surely be looking for us all over the world. "Kajon needed to find a suitable place for the goddess to be reincarnated, and he took the advice of his companion Oki Rooney to find it at the school with a large number of young girls.
"By the way, the person who secretly told you the truth must have some kind of intention. The gray-haired man put a roasted sausage on a plate of a short, fat, round student, and when the other party walked away, he said, "Will it threaten the goddess?"
Of course, he didn't have a good heart, but what he said was true. The soul of the goddess in the temple of souls is fake, and the place where he said that the real soul is stored is also correct, and that is enough. Gregory betrayed the goddess, and when we resurrect the goddess, we will be able to overthrow him. ”
It was only after receiving information from a mysterious person that the Pope had been hiding the true soul of the goddess all along, deliberately preventing her from being reincarnated. Therefore, he decisively contacted several close god warriors and pious magicians, plotted to steal the true soul, and prepared to reincarnate the goddess by his own power.
The handsome blonde man looked at the spell screen on the wall, looking at the news about the conflict between the countries, and vaguely felt that someone was trying to stir up chaos on the mainland. However, he doesn't care about these things, as a god warrior, his top priority is to reincarnate the starry sky goddess Yarla, and the starry sky god cult must be led by the goddess!
At nine o'clock, all 5,000 students and 300 teachers gathered at Qingxing Square.
Headmaster Dumb Ledor's long opening speech had been going on for three hours, and his long white beard was already stained with his own spittle. Some of the physically weak students standing in the audience even began to hallucinate, and these young students couldn't understand how the white-haired old man standing on the stage got such vigorous energy.
“...... The Lorin Royal Spell School School bears the historical mission of contributing talents to the peace of the mainland, and each of you must not only strive to become a powerful magician, but also have a noble moral ......"
"Just this year, we had a record 10 students from our school who earned their Advanced Wizard Certificate, some of whom graduated in June, and some of whom are still in school, and I hope that all students will follow their example and work hard. ”
"Of course, if we want the school to develop and grow in a lasting and healthy way, we need to continue to inject fresh blood, and this semester, we have added three new members to our teaching team. They are Teacher Ke Lan'er, who teaches the class "How Mana Works", ......"
In the teacher's seat, a woman with long black hair stood up and saluted, the rainbow necklace around her neck glistening in the sunlight. This person, Ke Zhenxi, recognized that it was the female teacher who stood up when Karashok Shota bullied him that day.
Ke Zhenxi looked at her with grateful eyes, and thought, "It turns out that her name is Ke Lan'er, and she has the same surname as me, what a coincidence." ”
"The teacher of the "Levitation Technique" class, who is also our graduate last year, is a senior magician, Karashok Shota......" the principal continued.
The dark-haired young man also stood up and nodded in a salute, smiling, with a hint of pride in his eyes.
Ke Zhenxi pursed his lips, very unconvinced in his heart: "At such a young age, you can get the certificate of advanced spell book?" Hmph, a typical talent without virtue." ”
"There is also the teacher of the "Fundamentals of Spells" class, Cangyang Zichun. ”
A handsome male teacher with purple hair stood up with a solemn face, this teacher wearing a dark blue robe printed with a starry sky pattern, his right hand was placed on his left shoulder, and he performed the teachings of the Starry Sky Divine Cult.
"This year, as usual, at the end of the semester, the first-year teachers selected a total of 100 students to work in groups of four to experience the Euro Yokai Sanctuary. All students who participate in the training have priority in choosing courses in the second year. The top 24 students will be able to choose the "Astral Invisible Technique" taught by me in the second year class, and the first place team will also receive four sixth-level magic weapons. ”
As soon as the voice fell, many first-graders began to whisper. Ke Zhenxi saw the expectant looks of many students, and knew that this freshman experience must be very important.
"'Starlight Invisible Technique' is a very powerful spell. De Gaulle whispered to Ke Zhenxi, with an expectant look on his face.
"Didn't you say there isn't the strongest spell?" Ke Zhenxi scoffed.
"Ah, I can't say that, the 'Levitation Technique' is indeed very powerful if it is mastered, but compared to the 'Starlight Invisible Technique', it is too bad. De Gaulle was embarrassed to justify himself.
"How much is that sixth-level magic weapon?" Ke Zhenxi was more interested in magic weapons than spells.
"Sixth-level magic weapon, it may be the strongest magic weapon we can have in our lifetime, are you really willing to sell it?" De Gaulle looked at Ke Zhenxi with a strange gaze.
"I mean, what if, sell?"
"A thousand gold coins, huh?"
Ke Zhenxi's eyes were about to pop out, and after doing the math, he lost his voice and said, "1 million iron coins!"
With the help of this initial fund, he can speed up the process of finding his daughter. In addition to being excited, he couldn't help but feel sorry for the "Ripper's Glove" he had lost, which was a sixth-level magic weapon.
Just as Ke Zhenxi was suffering from gains and losses, a disdainful voice came from beside him: "Hmph, you don't have to think about it, let alone the sixth-level magic weapon, I don't think the teacher will give you a place to participate in the training, hillbilly." ”
Ke Zhenxi turned around when he heard this, and saw that the person who spoke was Xinghua's brother, Delido Lawrence.
Ke Zhenxi ignored him and said in his heart: "Let's see, maybe I can get the first place." ”
He began to think about it, fantasizing that if he had a special talent for spells, he really won the first place and could become the disciple of Headmaster Dunbe, and then soar to the sky.
Thinking of this, he grinned silently, and he secretly set another goal for himself: "I must participate in the freshman experience, get good results, and use this as an opportunity to become the principal's student." Of course, it's not impossible to get the first place, ahahahahahaha......haha
All the students were devastated by the principal's long speech, but Ke Zhenxi had an excited smile on his face and a glimmer of hope in his eyes.
