The Whispering Verses

Chapter 204: Go to the Academy

Views:

"Wait, if we sell the relics to ordinary people in this way, the possibility of the church finding them is indeed low, but isn't the risk too great?"

Miss Louisa put down the teacup in her hand and asked the question in Xia De's mind.

The doctor explained:

"The fake Philosopher's Stone has special properties. It is dangerous when it is touched actively. Therefore, in theory, it is safest to be kept by ordinary people who are unaware of it. After all, this is not the real Philosopher's Stone. It does not have strange effects such as absorbing substances to strengthen itself or making animals more intelligent... ... Back to the topic, I found the location of the five statues. The bad news is that the owners of the five statues are all very troublesome."

He sighed:

"Two are dukes, one is the chief steward of the royal family, one is the chief of police at Redwich Field, and the last is not a noble, but he gave the statue to Prince Morgus Cavendish. Although these are ordinary people, it is no less difficult to sneak up on them than to confront a ring wizard head-on."

This was indeed troublesome, and no one else could help. Even if Shade knew Miss Carina, he couldn't get all five statues, but he and Miss Louisa promised to help the doctor think of a solution.

The doctor probably thought the two were trying to comfort him, so he didn't take it to heart. The middle-aged doctor felt like running a long-distance race and finding a mountain blocking the finish line.

His luck was indeed very bad.

In addition to the above, the five people also shared their learning experience of the week. Priest Augustus has recently been studying the magic of the Church of Dawn. Although he is not a church ring sorcerer, learning magic only requires faith, so the priest should be able to learn it in theory.

Miss Annat has been very busy lately, so she hasn't made much progress in her studies. Dr. Schneider continues to complain about his "Ether Mechanics". Miss Louisa shares the spell of the Bubble Head Curse, claiming that she learned it from a book, while Shad shares how he obtained two spirit runes.

He tried to speak of this matter as calmly as possible, even though he found it unbelievable when he said it.

"What? You got two spirit runes in a week?"

This news surprised the three people except Miss Louisa. Miss Anat was the most surprised. She knew that Shade had been busy all week.

"Oh, Shade, where on earth did you find the time to inscribe the spirit runes."

The female fortune teller couldn't figure it out.

"It wasn't a week. To be exact, it was two weeks. The rune related to the matchstick girl was obtained by Shade last Saturday night with my help."

Miss Louisa helped explain.

Shade wanted to nod, but he heard the old priest who was wiping his pipe with a wet cloth suddenly ask:

"Speaking of which, Louisa, when did you start calling Shade by his first name?"

"Luvia is the same. Besides, I plan to teach Shade to improve his enlightenment. Judging from the rune he obtained, Shade is very talented in enlightenment."

Miss Louisa took the opportunity to tell this story. Miss Anat leaned back on the sofa and said, "Tsk~!" Then she smiled and looked at Shade:

"The lines of fate are intertwined."

This was probably some kind of metaphor, but Shade didn't understand it. Miss Louisa, who understood it, blushed:

"That's a really strong analogy."

"What's the meaning?"

Xia De tilted his head and asked the doctor, and then Dr. Schneider was "warned" by the female writer with a vicious look.

The doctor and the priest both smiled:

"I don't know either."

Xia De nodded in understanding, and then he understood that this was a metaphor about love.

At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, when everyone was discussing more uses for the forged Philosopher's Stone, a light suddenly lit up on the manuscript paper that the doctor had placed on the coffee table. Then a short message came that Shade's application to view the "Sublimation Code" was approved, and the librarian Miss Danister wanted to see Shade, and the message was still signed by the Student Administration Office.

"Miss Danister?"

The doctor looked at the letters suspiciously:

"Why this lady?"

He wanted to look up and ask Shade some questions, but Shade pointed to the manuscript page, and another short message appeared. Father Augustus read it out:

"Due to the special circumstances, no ritual will be used for this meeting. The First Ring Warlock Mr. Shad Sullen Hamilton is required to go to St. Byrons to meet Miss Danister in person."

"Um?"

"What?"

"Heading to St. Byrons?"

"What happened today?"

Even Xia De, who knew about this in advance, was very surprised. He thought that they were going to the academy through a ritual projection, but there was another more important thing:

"If I take the train now, can I get to the college in two months? Oh, who can help me take care of Mia?"

"Don't be silly, the academy must have a way."

Miss Louisa said, and the emotional doctor wanted to say something, but was immediately stopped by Father Augustus, because another content appeared on the page:

Since Mr. Hamilton has the core rune of time and space, this time the space transfer is carried out through the broken old world map of the angel-level (level 1) relic collected by the college. Mr. Schneider, Ms. Anat, Ms. Louisa and Mr. Augustus, please keep the secret of this relic. Mr. Hamilton, please stand up, stay away from the manuscript paper, do not carry any relics (alchemical items are optional), and hold the positioning item in your hand (delivered in 30 seconds).

"Angel level?"

Augustus glanced at Shad, then he and the other four immediately left the sofa beside the coffee table and stood against the wall of the room.

"What are you doing?"

Xia De looked at their quick movements, not knowing what they meant.

"Using the relics to move across space is likely to affect the surrounding areas."

Miss Anat explained, frowning as if she was thinking about something.

"Shad, remember to tell us what St. Byrons looks like when you come back."

The doctor said to Shad, still very excited. He was the one most looking forward to going to the academy among the five.

"Hold your breath for a moment. During the space transfer, don't take a deep breath!"

The old priest gave this zealous admonition, but his words seemed to indicate that he had experienced something similar.

"Oh, among us, it was Shade who went to the academy first!"

Miss Louisa looked at the page of poetry manuscript excitedly.

The white light flashed again, and a small box was teleported over.

Xia De immediately stood up and opened it, and then saw a round crystal as big as a goose egg lying inside. It looked very familiar:

"The location object is white stone crystal?"

Unlike the one Shade had obtained, this one was engraved with dense text. With just a quick glance, Shade saw at least three different languages. He quickly interpreted it and found that it was a description of the detailed location of St. Byron's College.
