Chapter 39
"Dean."
The dean closed his pen and rubbed his eyes when he heard Victor's voice.
"Come in."
Victor came in, and the giant lava hand behind him threw Devin on the floor.
The dean shook his head when he saw Devin's appearance, and sighed at Victor.
"Professor Victor, the academy will not cover up your behavior."
Victor put his hands in his pockets and said without any emotion;
"It doesn't matter, I don't need the academy's protection."
"I will take responsibility for what I did."
The dean nodded, slowly stood up, and leaned on the obsidian cane.
"Then please follow me."
Dean Rachel used magic energy out of thin air, and a blue light began to wave in the dean's hand like a paintbrush.
The air in front of him seemed to be his painting, and began to twist at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Soon, the dean put away the magic.
Vega whispered in Victor's ear:
"This old man's magic is really interesting."
"Let me see, a special teleportation magic, stare here, insert the magic rune here."
Victor followed Vega's instructions, and the air in front of him felt distorted.
In an instant, Victor felt that the scenery around him gradually became hazy, and blue light fell.
When the surrounding scenery became clear again, it was already a different look.
Petals of various colors were flying all over the sky, rolling up thousands of waves.
The garden was a floating island, and the island was also covered with countless petals.
The refreshing fragrance came to his face, and Victor's dissatisfaction calmed down a bit.
"There is actually a different space hidden here, and even I didn't find it."
Vega exclaimed beside Victor, but Victor was not surprised at all.
As if he had known it for a long time.
Yes, this is the hidden map called the Dean's Back Garden among players.
Only after learning magic from Dean Rachel can you enter and exit freely.
'Although I have seen it many times in the game, it is still amazing to experience it in person. '
Victor thought to himself that the scene here is no different from that in the game.
The dean appeared in front of him a few seconds before him. Seeing Victor's appearance, he looked at him with some appreciation.
He can see the use of the magic circle and crack it at a glance. He is worthy of being called a genius wizard.
"Welcome to my sea of knowledge, Professor Victor, you are the youngest guest I have ever received."
The full name of this hidden map in the dean's back garden is: [Rachel's Sea of Knowledge].
This contains all the magical knowledge of Dean Rachel, and only those who truly have knowledge can enter it.
Fortunately, Victor is accompanied by a knowledgeable god like Vega.
However, now is not the time to chat.
He said directly.
"Dean, let's get to the point."
The dean didn't say anything, but just walked towards an open space with his cane in silence.
Victor followed him, and soon, the surrounding scenery changed rapidly.
The two of them had only walked a few steps, but a wooden house appeared in front of them.
The surroundings were all dense forests, as if there was a cabin in the woods hidden here.
The dean walked to the door, and the wooden house opened automatically.
He turned his head and nodded to Victor.
"Come in, Professor Victor."
Victor followed the dean in. There was only a table in the wooden house with a watermelon on it.
There was nothing else.
The dean picked up his cane and knocked on the watermelon's head.
The watermelon turned slowly, and its eyes were extremely deep, as if it had wisdom that knew everything about the past and the present.
It opened its thick lips and said slowly:
"Wei Lan, what's the matter?"
Vega looked at this talking watermelon and felt a chill on his body.
Even a few hairs stood up.
This thing made it feel uncomfortable.
It looked up at Victor and found that Victor still did not show any surprise.
He seemed to know everything in advance, even that there was a talking watermelon hidden here.
'How strange. '
It thought to itself.
Victor was naturally not surprised.
Because this was the dean's talking watermelon pet.
The dean looked at the watermelon and said, "This young friend wants to ask you some questions."
The watermelon stared at Victor reluctantly.
Vega whispered in his ear, "What's wrong with this guy?"
Victor did not speak, he knew that the watermelon was spying on his experience.
As he thought, various images flashed in the watermelon's eyes.
The raging flames, the flying flamesDust, magma all over the ground, and huge magic gushing out.
A shocking scene like the destruction of heaven and earth.
It saw that Victor was surging with rich fire elements attached to his body, and the lines of flowing magma covered half of Victor's upper body, like a fire demon.
After a moment, Watermelon refocused his eyes on Victor:
"Young people nowadays are really amazing."
"I know what you want to ask, the blue natural sparrow will tell us."
Soon, waves of magic ripples appeared around it and spread to the surroundings.
The "natural sparrows" in the different space moved.
An immersive picture appeared in front of Victor:
What was presented in front of him was the picture of yesterday.
Professor Devon took out the dean's handwritten letter sarcastically and arrogantly fired Heni.
By the way, Heni's most important "knowledge" was burned.
Black words that seemed like a curse appeared on the ground in front of Heni. Victor could tell at a glance that it was just a prank caused by ordinary disguise magic.
Then, three students jumped out and mercilessly laughed at Heni, who was sitting on the ground, giving her the final psychological blow.
The onlookers and the despicable success of the prank made the poor child completely emotionally collapsed.
"... She cried."
Vega murmured.
She cried so hysterically, desperately and helplessly.
In fact, it liked the child very much.
The picture disappeared instantly, and the watermelon closed its eyes.
It seemed that showing this picture made it very tired.
After it closed its eyes, it turned back into an ordinary-looking watermelon.
Even after seeing everything, Victor's expression did not change at all.
The dean squinted his eyes and sighed, and his thick white beard was blown messily by him.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Victor."
"As for Heni, I don't know where your teaching assistant went."
"Natural Sparrow acts according to my will, so it will not appear in places that may involve the privacy of others."
The dean did not lie, Victor knew it.
He did not feel the presence of Natural Sparrow in the office, and he did not feel the flow of Natural Sparrow in the student dormitory this morning.
Victor's voice sounded coldly:
"Dean Rachel, please tell me why that fat pig became a professor of your college?"
Victor's direct name made the dean feel helpless. He shook his head and said:
"Professor Victor, you are also a professor of our college."
The implication is that you also rely on your relationship to get a layer of gold, why can't others do this?
The only difference is that Victor is really capable, while Professor Devon is just getting paid.
So Victor said.
"When I joined your school, I was the youngest third-level mage. What about him?"
"Professor Victor, this is the problem I want to talk to you about."
Dean Rachel said with some embarrassment.
"The head of the Reiser family married the sister of the current emperor."
"As you think, Thor VIII is Devin Reiser's uncle."
His relationship is very strong.
Victor knew very well that Dean Rachel was persuading him not to kill this person if he could.
Otherwise, he would be in trouble.
"I understand your anger, Professor Victor."
"But killing can't solve anything. Maybe you can talk to Professor Devin. He is not guilty of death."
"I can completely recall Heni in the name of the college and give her the title of associate professor. What's more..."
What's more, do you really have to kill a royal relative for an ordinary person who doesn't even have talent?
Rachel didn't say it, but he believed that Victor would understand his good intentions.
"Dean, I won't kill him."
Victor's voice sounded faintly.
Rachel breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that his dissuasion had worked.
But then, Victor narrowed his eyes and spoke calmly.
"But whether he will die in the hands of the devil is not something I can control."
When he said this, it was as if he was talking about a very ordinary thing.
Rachel's mind was shocked, he didn't understand what Victor was talking about.
Devil? What does this have to do with the devil?
However, Vega lowered his head when he heard this.
"Do you think that disgusting thing has found Heni?"
Victor's expression did not change at all.
Just as Vega said.
He saw three students who were playing pranks on the screen.
Exactly the same as the three students who fainted today.
Their state could only be stolen by the devil.power.
Then why did the devil steal the power of these three people, and who did they give these powers to?
Victor could only think of the missing Hernie.
He did not respond to Rachel, but Rachel was already embarrassed.
"Professor Victor, I believe you have seen it."
"The me standing in front of you is not the real me. I am attending the annual meeting of the City of Mages."
"Now I am actually meeting you in the way of 'Natural Sparrow'."
"So, I failed to stop this from happening as soon as possible, but let things ferment. I am sorry."
Natural Sparrow can only follow Rachel's will and act on instinct.
Natural Sparrow thought that Victor had not come to class for a few days, so he handed the course to Professor Devin, which was in line with the cognitive rules of Natural Sparrow.
And Professor Devin fired Hernie, a professor fired a magic apprentice, which also met the cognitive rules of Natural Sparrow.
But this does not meet the critical standards of humans.
This is Rachel's dereliction of duty. His poor supervision made it difficult to recover.
Although after the incident, Rachel didn't feel any impact.
One is a noble, the other is a magic apprentice without talent. Even a fool knows what choice to make for this question.
But the mistake is that he doesn't know how protective Victor is.
Moreover, the other party is a fourth-level magician like him.
So the dean apologized in advance, lowered his posture, and gave Victor enough respect.
"Professor Victor, please remember what you promised me. No matter what you do, don't affect the students."
"They are innocent."
Victor did not respond, nodded expressionlessly, and a teleportation magic was given to his feet, disappearing without a trace.
"Alas..."
Rachel's heavy sigh came in the air, and his figure gradually dissipated, turning into stars and blending into the air.
.......
On the hill behind the academy, a man in a robe stood on the top of the mountain and looked down at the bottom of the mountain.
The bottom of the mountain is the academy, the place where she breeds despair.
Standing here, you can have a panoramic view of the academy.
Her eyes no longer have the innocence and expectation of the past.
After experiencing a strong pain, Heni's calm eyes are full of the word "revenge".
A ball of black air wrapped around her body like a fish in water, and the dark ink turned into a robe, climbed up Heni's hair, and a hood appeared.
"Little girl, is this enough power?"
"As long as you are willing to wait, I can give you more power, more, more."
Its voice is full of terrible temptation, like a bottomless abyss.
But Heni was unmoved.
"No need."
Her voice was terribly calm.
"The professor often told me that I am sometimes weak and can't learn to be decisive."
"But now, I will no longer be weak."
The magic power in her body is now very abundant, and even she herself doesn't know how much power she has gained from this guy.
Strictly speaking, Heni is still not a mage.
But she had such abundant magic power, which turned into a terrifying thing.
Heni was finally able to manifest all the knowledge in her mind.
And she had prepared everything long ago.
She began to prepare to chant.
"The God of Void...Dance..."
As Heni slowly chanted, a high-level magic array appeared out of thin air, and more than a dozen small arrays were combined together to match the huge array.
"Delirious Magic City..."
Several magic wheels circled the academy for several weeks, and countless inscriptions were engraved on it.
The lines between the arrays appeared and gradually became heavy.
The exquisite array operated accurately like a wonderful machine.
This was beyond the level of analysis of a third-level wizard.
Soon, Heni swept the array across the entire academy and buried it underground.
The academy's excellent geographical location was also an excellent array location in Heni's eyes.
She had made all preparations.
"Hernie?"
"Who?"
Hernie turned around suddenly when she heard someone calling her name. She was slightly stunned when she saw the familiar blonde.
The blonde girl's name came out of her mouth.
"Ellie...Ka?"
