Chapter 147: Entering the Mage Academy

"Then... don't talk first, let me guess." Lu Mengyao shook her fingers and walked in front to lead the way. She glanced at Sadako Yamamura with her eyes and said:

"You are the adventurer who supports Uffric. Storm Cloak. No, this is too simple, you can see it at a glance. Then, you encountered a dragon halfway through here. Of course, the difficulty is too simple. Twenty minutes ago we all heard the sound of the dragon, and then there were some scratches on your body, and there might be...oh, the leaves... scratches on your face. Then, you did not wear a hood, but the amount of snow accumulated on your hair was extremely sparse, and in these few minutes you had not cleaned your hair at once, which means you had entered a place with a stove and stayed there for a while, causing the snowflakes on your hair to melt... But

From your blue face, you can see that you haven't been there for too long. So, in the entire Winter Castle, there are stoves and those that can be entered by outsiders, one is a tavern and inn, and the other is the lord's long house. If you are staying in a hotel, you won't stay in it for a while and then come out. If you are going to buy something to eat in the tavern, your lips will not be so dry... That is to say... you have been in the lord's long house of the Winter Castle for a while. Why did the lord of the Winter Castle summon you for a while? At this critical moment, what else would be besides the dragon? That is to say, you survived under the claws of the dragon, and the lord summoned you for this. I'm right."

“……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

After hearing this long speech, Sadako Yamamura was stunned for a while.

"Don't care, I just want to give you a deep opening impression." Lu Mengyao smiled and waved her hand. "In fact, I saw you walk out of the lord's long house and then push it back from this fact. Then I found some evidence in you that can be proved... Among the reasoning of this link, the weakest link is actually your face... Because I remember your face has always been not very good... so I am not very sure. The accuracy rate of the inference is actually only 40%, but it is the greatest possibility... I will give it a try. Now it's your turn, this lady."

"What's my turn?" Sadako Yamamura's pace was a little unaware of the other party.

"... Observe me the same way, then what inference can you draw?" The female mage named Lu Mengyao turned a circle in front of her, and the corner of the skirt of the gray robe spun at a beautiful angle. "In my experience, generally speaking, people who have listened to my words will involuntarily use the same method... to identify me and use this as a counterattack to maintain their self-esteem. So, please. Look wherever you want."

"Uh, why do I want to see you?" Sadako Yamamura stood there stupidly.

"...Don't you have a fighting spirit? I mean, don't you like to 'play' with others? A simple little game." Lu Mengyao raised her eyebrows and looked at her, then turned to continue walking. "It's incredible. I thought that everyone who wants to maintain their self-esteem likes to quarrel with others - deliberately teasing others' anger. I have used this trick to trick many people. Many people think that their actions are under the control of their own will, but unfortunately, I am guiding them."

"Uh... Then why do you want to tell me this? We are competitors..."

Lu Mengyao's shoulder-length hair exposed in the wind and snow shook slightly. Under the bangs on her forehead, her slender eyebrows frowned.

"...Oh, I'm very lucky. You and I are not hostile, guess why? The answer is obvious. Why do those who support General Tulius run to the enemy territory in the east to make a mess? I'm an adventurer who supports the dragon descend!" Lu Mengyao shrugged and turned around and showed a bright smile, "Do you want me to help? Just pay a small amount of money. I can help you solve your opponent and completely dismantle the power of the emperor."

“……………………”

Sadako Yamamura's head suddenly turned a little. She was a little confused. Su Jing told her that she had met an adventurer who helped the dragon descendants. But why did another person appear in front of her? But no matter how dull she knew, it was not a good time for her to think about problems. She quickly followed Lu Mengyao's words and said:

"Oh...uh, thank you for your help, but why do you support me? You should know my financial situation, my opponents can give more, and there is a high possibility that they are more dangerous than me..."

"Because I trust you, you cute little." Although it is a little shorter than Sadako Yamamura, the female mage turned around and pinched Sadako Yamamura's cheeks that were frozen stiff from the cold. "A adventurer like you is worth dating. Although the world is relatively peaceful now, there are still some malicious adventurers wandering around. Some guys appear to cooperate with you, but they can sell you when they turn around. They are like those bad guys. No one wants to deal with them, it's better to kill them with a fireball. But people like you who still think about me are so kind that they are loving. I would rather trade with such a beautiful woman than cooperate with the opposite side... who knows what kind of guy you look like."

While talking, the two had already walked into the center of the Winter Castle Academy. In front of the tall mage statue, two people in gorgeous costumes seemed to be talking in a low voice. The conversation did not look very pleasant, and the voices of the two were getting louder and louder. However, when they saw two strange women coming over, they quickly stopped.

The taller elf who was arguing about the two came over, looked at the visitor with a picky look, and asked in an undisguised tone:

"Who are you? Why did you break into the Magic Academy in Winter Castle? Who gave you permission? This is a forbidden place to study magic, and you tourists can't come in at will."

"No, Ankano! They are new students at the academy. Go elsewhere to show off your airs. This is not a place for political intervention."

Behind the second woman, the woman who had just watched the bridge hole came over. It was obvious that she didn't like Lu Mengyao, but in the face of this arrogant high elf, she chose to stand on the side of the student.

"Falauda, ​​don't forget who you are!" The high elf named Ankano threatened. Perhaps seeing that he didn't have the chance to pick on his fingers, he walked back to the internal hall of the Magic Academy unhappily.

"...Even if they are both high elves, there is a difference between good people and bad people." Falauda, ​​who is also a high elves, turned around and looked at Lu Mengyao and Sadako Yamamura. Although her tone was not very good, she was in a sense of persuasion. "He was the inspector sent by his ancestor Shenzhou (the empire established by the higher elves, which united the wood elves and tiger people, fought with the human empire and concluded the Platinum Agreement), and had been trying to control the academy."

"As far as I see, you seem to belong to the race of high elves, why..." Lu Mengyao beat the snake and followed the stick and began to chat with Falauda.

"Somo (the ruling organization of the ancestors of the Divine State) is a group of racist madmen. Those who come to the Magic Academy and study magic here are people who no longer pay attention to earthly disputes. Just like what I just said, the purpose of the Magic Academy is to be independent of the struggle for royal power. Since I have been here for decades, I am a member of the Academy, and this relationship is even more important than that of a country that has no longer anything to do with me."

At this time, the slightly smaller man came over in the argument just now.

"Oh my God, Falauda, ​​thank you for helping these two new students... Sorry, I was thinking about what Ancano said just now, so I was a little distracted..."

"This is what I should do, Lord Chief Mage."

The chief wizard of Winter Castle Academy was a gentle little man with a long beard on his chin. He looked gentle and elegant, but it gave people a feeling that he was not firm enough. Falauda quickly left here and returned to her post. The chief wizard took out a bell from his arms and shook it gently twice. Then a woman's voice came from the bell.

【What are your instructions, Your Excellency Sarvos?】

"Oh, Mirabelle, I'm in the square, there are two new students here, if you have free time, you can come down and take care of them."

【On the road, Lord Sarvos.】

The chief wizard took the bell back into his arms, then forced a smile at the two new students and said softly:

"I am the chief wizard of Winterburg College, Savos Aran. Welcome to be a member of the college. As you have seen, the college may have encountered some small difficulties in its operation recently, but... I believe we can get through it. So, if you choose the field you want to study, you can find teachers in the relevant fields for practice. I no longer teach the class anymore. The responsibilities of the chief wizard are heavier than teaching students. To be honest, I hope to communicate more with young spell users... Then, see you again."

During the period after the chief wizard left, Sadako Yamamura quietly used the remote spiritual communication link to Su Jing.

"A Jing...I met the third adventurer here."

[...Since you are still talking to me now, it proves that you have started killing me before you come up... Say it.]

"Well, she is the mage who sold me the scrolls before. But... she claims to be an adventurer who supports the dragonborn, and also says she wants to help us win..."

[... Interesting, this guy is really interesting. If she is a mage, it is normal to go to the mage academy for research. Since that's the case, then... just pretend not to know that she is lying. Be careful and report her actions to me at any time. I'm almost over. On the way back, I will do the side mission of finding the Winter Castle helmet. At that time, we will suppress her in one fell swoop, and then this mission will be completed by half...]

"I understand, I will look at her."
