"——Fat man, what happened? Why did people gather in the first hall in the middle of the night? Could it be that some big demon sneaked into the first university?"
At the assembly point of Astronomy Class 08-1, Duan Xiaojian wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, yawned widely, and while complaining about the unexpected announcement from the school, he moved closer to Fatty Xin.
As the senior editor of the school newspaper, Xin's well-informedness is well-known in the class.
But he was destined to be disappointed tonight.
Fatty Xin didn't seem to know any more than the others, looking around with the same blank expression.
"Big demon? Which big demon will sneak into the school before the final exam?" He muttered, quickly letting go of a few paper cranes and catching a few more: "——Didn't you ask Matthew? He is in Alpha
There's a wild road over there, maybe you know something."
When the thin wizard heard this, he nodded repeatedly and looked around to find Matthew.
Zhang Jixin, who was standing aside, snorted disdainfully: "It's strange that Matthew can find out! My brother doesn't even know why there is such an emergency gathering tonight... but he guesses that something serious must have happened."
This is a very correct nonsense.
The fat wizard worked hard to resist the desire to complain.
He didn't complain.
Instead, the red-faced wizard began to complain. He changed the topic and commented on the fat wizard's speculation: "——Speaking of which, if there is really a big monster that disrupts the school's final exam, I will give it a longevity tablet.
, the kind that puts a stick of incense on every month!”
This weekend, the first final exam is about to begin, and the students at Jiuyou College are very anxious.
"Serving a demon? You can't imagine that!"
A cold and faint voice sounded very abruptly from behind a few people, startling them: "——If you fail the final exam, you will be put in solitary confinement at most, with regular penalties; if you dare to worship the devil in private, you will be punished by your family.
I found out that it’s not just breaking a few legs.”
Zhang Jixin's face suddenly lost its usual deep red color and turned a little gray. He suddenly turned around and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that it was Jiang Yu who was speaking.
"Brother Zha is not here." He smiled dryly and answered Jiang Yu's question in advance. After a pause, he added: "We don't know where his black gem cat went to roam..."
"You're just plotting me behind my back like this?" A small black cat as big as a fist got out of the witch's hood, climbed on her shoulder, and looked at Zhang Jixin fiercely: "——What's the matter with Langbulu... I do this every day when I go out
He has a mission! Recently, I have spent twice as much time in class as him, no, ten times!"
Jiang Yu stretched out a finger and flicked it back into the hood to stop it from continuing to make noise.
Then he looked at Xiao Xiao.
Dr. Xiao Da adjusted his glasses and answered honestly: "Before going to bed at night, the people from the teaching assistant group took Brother Qing away, saying it was the special project of Fringe College... and then he never came back. I just found him
Professor An from the office has confirmed that it is indeed a school project, but because the confidentiality level is very high, we cannot find out more information."
"What's the reason for gathering tonight?" Jiang Yu frowned and asked another question.
Xiao Xiao shook his head: "I don't know. I tried divination and there were only two results. Either it was chaos and nothing could be seen clearly; or it was very clear and you could see the false 'safe and sound' at a glance..."
"
"Is it possible that the school is holding a temporary 'Dragon Boat Festival' or something like that?" Fatty Xin suddenly interrupted, his imagination widened: "——If I remember correctly, today is the Dragon Boat Festival, right!"
"To be precise, yesterday was the Dragon Boat Festival."
Xiao Xiao shook his head slightly and pointed at the fat wizard's watch: "It's already past midnight, so there's no reason to celebrate yesterday's festival, and I've never heard of any such event being held in the middle of the night..."
"Quiet!"
From the terrace high in the hall, a young and loud voice came: "Everyone, please keep quiet! Counselors and monitors of each class, please count the number of people in your class, and report any absentees immediately! Students who are already in the first hall, please
Maintain order and do not chase, fight or make noise... We will further explain the situation later."
Maybe it's because that voice is too young.
Lack of sufficient deterrence.
As soon as he finished speaking, a questioning voice immediately sounded from somewhere on the third floor of the hall: "So what exactly is going on? Where are the professors? Why aren't the professors here?"
Many young wizards then noticed that most of the people maintaining order at the scene were teaching assistants and lecturers, as well as some people wearing gray robes. Not a single figure of the school's senior professors could be seen.
This discovery immediately caused more people to start talking.
At this moment.
A series of dull sounds suddenly came from outside the first hall.
Boom!
It was like countless boulders rolling down the hillside, and like the sound of mountains cracking. Then, the whole hall shook violently, and the thick pillars at the edge of the hall creaked under pressure, and they were hung in the corridor on the second floor.
Many of the portraits disappeared into the picture frames and disappeared.
Exclaims and screams came one after another.
"What happened?"
"Is it an earthquake? I mean, is the earth dragon turning over?"
"What kind of earth dragon can shake the first hall when it rolls over? Is it a legendary level earth dragon? Is there such a monster in the wizarding world?"
"It's not necessarily that the earth dragon has turned over, it could also be that the ancient dragon sleeping under the volcano has awakened! My grandma said that there is an ancient dragon that has lived for tens of thousands of years living in the volcano deep in the Silent Forest!"
"Why are you all guessing about the underground? Could it be a meteorite falling down?"
"Who dares to throw stones at the head of First University?"
The entire hall was full of chaotic sounds. The young wizards were all talking and exchanging their speculations. There was no trace of fear or panic on their faces. On the contrary, each one was more excited than the other. They just had to open two bottles of Green Hornet and take a stack.
Fried peanuts, sat on a small bench and watched a show.
Xiao Xiao did not participate in these discussions. Instead, he leaned against the outer railing and carefully observed the few slightly thin figures behind the high balcony. It could be seen that several young wizards in different robes were talking quietly but fiercely.
What are you arguing about?
Soon, the outcome of the debate came out.
"Quiet!"
"Everyone, please be quiet!"
This time, a witch spoke. She did not hide anything, and said to everyone clearly and simply: "I have just received a notice from the school working committee. In order to avoid risks, the First University will move briefly, which may cause
Some noise or vibrations are normal, please stay calm!"
Fatty Xin stared at his small eyes and looked at Xiao Xiao in confusion.
"——Move briefly? What do you mean?"
"That's the literal meaning." The apologetic fortune teller calmly replied: "To put it simply, the First University felt that it was in danger, so it ran away with the bucket..."
