Chapter 242: The cunning dean old man
After a brief explanation of the relationship between the world, everyone looked thoughtful.
Similarly, after he confessed his world and origin, and understood the huge dimensional gap between the technological world and magic, his suspicions were reduced to a minimum.
"So your idea that all the visitors from other worlds know each other, or even belong to the same group, is very naive and ignorant, just like the country bumpkins who think that foreigners are all from the same country."
Although Adolph didn't quite understand the specific meaning of his metaphor from the real world. But this did not prevent him from understanding the contempt in the other person's words.
"Compared to Mr. Bai, we are indeed short-sighted."
Hearing this, the pale man had no intention of responding to him, but with his contemptuous eyes, he almost nodded and confirmed the other party's statement.
However, the old man in white robe who has matured into a mature man obviously does not care about this face. Even in his opinion, if he can achieve his goal, what does mere face mean?
For example, at this moment, he was a little hesitant about whether to ask Wanwan to help him with the alien invasion. After all, judging from his performance, he did have the strength.
But the main thing is that Adolph was still wary and testing the other party just now. Now he is asking the other party to help regardless of the past grudges. This is a bit embarrassing with his old face.
But when he thought about the invasion of alien gods, he decided to put down his useless face completely.
"What about that, Mr. Bai... I wonder if you can help us fight against the invasion of the evil god from another world for the sake of your companions?"
"...You shouldn't have asked this question."
Unfortunately, Wanwan is not the kind of existence that can be controlled by others. No matter whether he does or does not do something, his reasons are only based on his own will.
"The answer is of course no. There is no reason for me to take action against the disaster in your world?"
As he spoke, he paused and glanced at Ariel, Marco and Anna beside him. Then his eyes fell on the old man again and said meaningfully.
"Furthermore, I would like to advise you. Instead of relying on other forces to prevent the invasion of alien gods, you might as well put more effort into cultivating young people."
"When the human beings in your world become stronger, they will naturally not be afraid of any invasion or threat."
Mrs. Adol's shrewdness could naturally understand the hint in her pale eyes. He also looked at the children in front of him, and a hint of surprise appeared in his heart.
Whether it’s Ariel who has already shown her unparalleled talent, or Marco who is passionate and decent, or even Anna, the girl who just showed her rare talent...
Perhaps these children with outstanding talents are the real future of mankind. When they grow up in the future, why not be the pillars of mankind?
"...What you said makes sense. The future belongs to young people, so why should I be in a hurry?"
After thinking about this, the old man in white robe instantly returned to his original attitude of showing off. After all, it was still early for the alien gods to invade, and whether he could survive until then was a question.
In this case, why should he worry about it? Wouldn't it be better to just train the next generation and take over for him?
"As long as you understand."
Maybe I was explaining the differences between the worlds to a few people today, and I had already said enough. I didn’t have the inclination to talk anymore, so I waved my hand and said.
"Okay, let's stop here. I've explained enough to you today. Let a few of them talk to you next. They should also have something to tell you."
Ariel nodded understandingly after hearing this, and came forward again to talk about Anna's physical problem. After all, this was also one of the purposes of several people coming to Tower Academy.
"...Dean, in your opinion, have you ever heard of a 'chaotic' constitution?"
The girl once again recounted the girl's physical problems, and so did the old man in white robes who had restored his original virtue. He didn't even think about it after hearing the words, so he praised them first.
"It's a joke. I've read a lot of books for hundreds of years. Is there anything I haven't seen?"
However, as he thought more and more, the smile on his face began to gradually stiffen. After muttering various words such as "impossible" and "no reason".
He raised his old, somewhat red face and awkwardly looked at Ariel and the others who were looking expectantly.
Especially the little girl Anna, she is particularly concerned about her own physical problems. So when she heard what the old man just said, her dark eyes were filled with the most anticipation.
These scorching gazes made Adolf feel embarrassed. If he had known better, he would not have played so fast. He coughed twice to strengthen his face.
Then he slowly opened his mouth under the expectant eyes of several people.
"What is that? This little girl's physique seems to be indeed gifted and rare in the world. In my hundreds of years of experience, it seems that I have never heard of a 'chaotic' physique..."
"Cut~"
As soon as these words came out, the scene suddenly burst into boos. Ariel and the others were fine. Black Dragon Xiaobai and his good disciple Cecil would not give this old guy any face.
Even the expectant eyes of the little girl Anna dimmed.
"Ahem! You don't need to be disappointed. In fact, it's not strange that I haven't heard of it. After all, compared to the long history of the nine-story tower, I am just a small master."
Maybe it was the girl's disappointed look that made him a little unbearable, or maybe it was the boos from the unfilial children that made him embarrassed. After coughing a few times to calm down, he quickly made amends.
"What do you mean, Dean? Although you don't know about the 'chaotic' constitution, in the history of the nine-story tower, would anyone know about this constitution?"
Compared with Cecil, who usually only chokes people and can only be reliable at critical moments, Ariel is undoubtedly a decent and knowledgeable person, and has the demeanor of a good disciple.
At least her understanding and explanation made a certain old man extremely satisfied, and he secretly thought that Cecil had taken on a good apprentice. Then he put on a proud expression again and explained.
"This is natural. The historical origin of the nine-story tower has even gone back so long that it is difficult to record. During this period, how many geniuses and powerful figures have emerged among us humans?"
"I believe that with a 'chaotic' physique, senior mages must have seen it."
"But the seniors who have lived so long ago have already passed away, right? Even if some of them know about the 'chaotic' constitution, how can we obtain their inheritance from the other party?"
It was impossible for the hot-blooded boy not to care about matters related to his sweetheart Anna. When he heard this, Marco couldn't help but say.
"No, Marco, it's not what you think. It seems that you didn't remember the introduction I gave you on the way into the academy."
But what he didn't expect was that Ariel, who was thoughtful next to her, shook her head instead, showing a look of disgust towards this "reckless" warrior.
"I said at the time that the original intention of establishing our nine-story tower was to preserve and pass down human magic knowledge as an organization."
"So although those seniors may have passed away, their magic and knowledge will be passed down from generation to generation."
"Uh... I remembered you saying that the nine-story tower was absolutely neutral."
Marco said angrily, but the girl's words also made him extremely happy.
"Then you mean, Anna's physical inheritance has been established?"
"You can also say that, provided that there are really mages in the past who have studied and experienced the constitution of 'chaos'."
The girl who was accustomed to being rigorous did not directly give a definite answer. She looked at the old man in white robe who was wandering in the world and didn't know what he was thinking, and asked again.
"Then Dean Adolph, where are the magic inheritances of those seniors stored?"
In response to her question, before the old man turned around, her mentor Sehir rolled his eyes and interjected.
"You have been studying in the academy for so many years, but you don't even know this? How did you take classes in the past? All the inheritance of the academy are naturally stored in the Central Library!"
As soon as these words came out, Ariel instantly felt like she was back in the college classroom many years ago. The teacher in front of her once again exuded the majesty of a teacher.
"Well... Nia usually helped me find whatever books I wanted to read at that time. I usually stay in the dormitory and rarely go out. Teacher, it's not like you don't know..."
The girl only dared to argue in a low voice.
"So after talking for a long time, we still have to go to the library to look for it?"
Bai Bai, who had not spoken since just now, couldn't help but shrugged and said with amusement. Apparently he had realized that this old guy's bet was also very problematic.
"You cunning thing, the bet you lost to me happened to be the right to read in the library. Love is waiting for me here, right?"
"No way... Sir Bai, you misunderstood. I didn't expect this little girl's physique to be so rare and rare. This is just a coincidence, a coincidence."
Adolph said nonchalantly, but it was a pity that he really had to know what this matter was.
…
No matter what, now the goal of the group has indeed become clear. Whether it is a pale bet, or they want to find out Anna's physique and heritage.
At least this trip to the library is definitely a must.
"By the way, little Ellie~ Are you coming to the Imperial Capital specifically to deliver news and enroll that little girl in school?"
On the way to the library, Cecil and Ariel got together again. Obviously, even though they had been on opposing sides before, it did not affect the relationship between the two.
Because the girl has always known what kind of person her mentor is. Although in terms of personality and style, she has always been carefree and not like a serious teacher.
But when it comes to really important matters, she is extremely reliable, and considering her position and situation, there is no problem with her just taking sides.
